Iron-Catalyzed Direct α-Arylation of Ethers with Azoles
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-07-14)
The direct α-arylation of cyclic and acyclic ethers with azoles has been achieved, which features a novel iron-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) process. This practical oxidative method allowed the efficient ...
Enantioselective Michael Addition of Aldehydes to Maleimides Organocatalyzed by a Chiral Primary Amine-Salicylamide
(MDPI, 2018-12-12)
A primary amine-salicylamide derived from chiral trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine was used as an organocatalyst for the enantioselective conjugate addition of aldehydes, mainly ,-disubstituted to N-substituted maleimides. The ...
Unprecedented Multicomponent Organocatalytic Synthesis of Propargylic Esters via CO2 Activation
(Wiley‐VCH, 2019-02-19)
An efficient and straightforward organocatalytic method for the
direct, multicomponent carboxylation of terminal alkynes with
CO2 and organochlorides, towards propargylic esters, is reported
for the first time. ...
An umpolung strategy to react catalytic enols with nucleophiles
(Nature, 2019-11-20)
The selective synthesis of a-functionalized ketones with two similar enolizable positions can be accomplished using allylic alcohols and iridium(III) catalysts. A formal 1,3-hydrogen shift on allylic alcohols generates ...
Selective C(sp2)−H Halogenation of "click" 4-Aryl-1,2,3-triazoles
(American Chemical Society, 2017-02-09)
Selective bromination reactions of “click compounds” are described. Electron-neutral and electron-deficient arenes selectively undergo unprecedented Pd-catalyzed C–H ortho-halogenations assisted by simple triazoles as ...
Brønsted Base Catalyzed One-Pot Synthesis od Stereodefined Six-Member Carbocycles Featuring Transient Trienolates and a Key Intramolecular 1,6-Addition
(Wiley-VCH, 2019-07-31)
Acatalyst-driven one-pot reaction sequence is
developed for the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of
tetrasubstituted cyclohexenes from simple unsaturated ketones
or thioesters.The method involves atertiary ...
alpha-Branched Ketone Dienolates: Base-Catalyzed Generation and Regio- and Enantioselective Addition Reactions
(Wiley-VCH, 2019-05-14)
In this study, the unique capacity of bifunctional Brønsted bases to generate α-branched ketone dienolates and control both site- and stereoselectivity of their addition reactions to representative classes of carbon ...
Synthesis of Indenes by the Tandem Gold(I)-Catalyzed Claisen Rearrangement/Hydroarylation Reaction of Propargyl Vinyl Ethers
(ACS, 2019-05-06)
The tandem gold(I)-catalyzed propargyl Claisen rearrangement/hydroarylation reaction of suitable propargyl vinyl ethers, followed by in situ reduction of the resulting carbonyl group, provides functionalized indenes in ...
Room temperature synthesis of non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) using highly reactive N-substituted 8-membered cyclic carbonates
(RSC, 2016-02-16)
There is a growing interest to develop green synthetic pathways towards industrially relevant polymers
such as polyurethanes without the use of toxic and dangerous isocyanate monomers. The most promising
route towards ...
Intramolecular Palladium(II)-catalyzed 6-endo C-H alkenylation directed by the remote N-protecting group. Mechanistic insight and application to the synthesis of dihydroquinolines
(American Chemical Society, 2019-12-30)
A protocol for the Pd(II)-catalyzed C-H alkenylation reaction of substituted N-allylanilines
via an unusual 6-endo process has been developed. A DFT study of the mechanistic pathway has shown
that the coordination of the ...
