An efficient procedure was developed for the synthesis of 1-[(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl]-1 lambda(3),2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one on a 100-mmol (36-g) scale. The benziodoxolone can be used for the gold-catalyzed direct alkynylation of indole, 2-hexylthiophene, ...
An efficient one-step synthesis of piperidin-2-yl and pyrrolidin-2-yl flavonoid alkaloids was achieved in good to excellent yields by a highly regioselective phenolic Mannich reaction of chrysin with cyclic imines or iminium salts. Performing the reaction ...
Transition-metal-catalyzed C-C coupling reactions have been extensively studied in the past three decades. These reactions have become invaluable to fundamental research and industrial applications, because they can be used construct complicated molecules ...
This thesis is divided in seven main chapters including an introduction about the state of the art in the field, four main chapters describing the main part of the work, a short insight on the implications of the presented results for other research projec ...
Strategies that allow access to side-chain functional polyesters are valuable as they would enable to engineer the properties of these hydrolytically degradable materials. This contribution explores the feasibility of a novel approach toward side-chain fun ...
In the last decades, hypervalent iodine reagents have raised from chemical curiosities to mainstream reagents in organic synthesis. The use of benziodoxole-derived reagents has been especially successful in oxidation methods, whereas non-cyclic iodinanes h ...

Catalyzed by p-toluenesulfonic acid in dry acetonitrile, oxirane-containing tertiary enamides underwent efficient cyclization via intramolecular addition to produce 3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-one derivatives in moderate to good yields. ...
Rhodium-catalyzed desymmetrizations of meso-tert-norbornenols, e.g. I, by retro-allylations generate allyl-rhodium species that allow for a rich and diverse downstream reactivity. ...
Bioactive hydrogels formed from the Michael-type addition reactions of end-functionalized poly (ethylene glycol) macromers with thiol-containing protease-sensitive peptide crosslinkers have previously been described as matrices for cell-induced enzymatic r ...
