In the first part, we described the synthesis of C-(1'→1) and C-(1'→4) disaccharide precursors, which are readily obtained via the carbonylative Stille coupling of glucal and isolevoglucosenone derivatives. Tin glycals and triflates, derived from isolevogl ...
The goal of this thesis was to find conditions to form C-C double bond and single bond using sulfonyl derivativies, which are arising from the Vogel's oxyallylation cascades. In a second chapter, it is shown that 2-methylprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluorides can ...
Immunofluorescence assays indicate that anguinomycin C is a potent inhibitor of protein export from the nucleus. Key features in the total synthesis of this antitumor natural product include a Cr-catalyzed enantioselective hetero-Diels– Alder reaction, a N ...
Room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), considered as "designers' solvents", are attracting a great attention because of their possibility to be tailored based on property requirements. The ionic liquids designed and synthesized for carrying out specified ...
Four galactofuranose-containing disaccharides have been prepared utilising various thioimidates [Galf-SC(NR)XR′] and suitably protected acceptors as key precursors. We observed that the efficiency of the coupling reactions was particularly dependent on the ...
Task-specific ionic liquids bearing nitrile functional groups attached to the cation and nitrogen-donor-containing anions strongly affect the efficiency of the Stille cross-coupling, influencing the nature of the catalyst and its stability. The relative st ...
Only with appropriate coatings and coating techniques the use of nanoparticles is possible for biomedical applications. The appropriate choice of the coating material and techniques helps to render the particles biocompatible, colloidally and chemically st ...
We report strong exciton-photon coupling at room temperature in a hybrid high quality bulk 3 lambda/2 GaN cavity with a bottom lattice-matched AlInN/AlGaN distributed Bragg reflector through angle-resolved polarized photoluminescence (PL). Coupling of the ...
This book represents first non-edited book on the subject of metal catalysed reactions in ionic liquids and covers the literature from its origins until early 2005. Following a general introduction to the field of biphasic/mutliphasic catalysis, the synthe ...
Key steps in the convergent enantioselective synthesis of the cytotoxic natural product cylindramide are tandem Michael addn./electrophilic trapping reactions, Sonogashira coupling, Julia-Kocienski olefination, and macrocyclization. For example, the Sonoga ...
