This review provides an overview of the recent achievements in catalytic process development for alkyne hydrogenations. It underlines the necessity of simultaneous optimization over different length scales from molecular/nanoscale of active phase, up-to ma ...
In the presence of a catalytic amount of chiral BINOL-derived phosphoric acid (TRIP), reaction of an α-isocyanoacetate 1, an aldehyde 2, an aniline 3 followed by addition of a toluene solution of α,β-unsaturated acyl chloride 5 afforded oxa-bridged tricycl ...
Mono-N-arylation of benzamidines 1 with aryl boronic acids 2 was effectively achieved in the presence of a catalytic amount of Cu(OAc)2 and NaOPiv under mild aerobic conditions. Combining this step with an intramolecular direct CH bond functionalization, c ...
Heating a DMA/pivalic acid (v/v = 4/1) solution of diversely substituted 6-(phenylamino)hex-2-ynoates in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2 under oxygen atmosphere afforded pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles in moderate to good yields. A domino sequence inv ...
Treatment of a DMA solution of anilide 1 with a catalytic amount of palladium acetate (0.025 equiv) and XPhos (0.05 equiv) in the presence of potassium carbonate (2.0 equiv) at 100 C afforded dihydroquinolin-2-ones spiro-fused to dihydrofuranyl, indolinyl, ...
Linear amides, prepd. in one step by the Ugi four-component reaction, were converted to 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-3-ones or to 2-(2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetamides dependent on the catalytic conditions. While microwave irradn. was found to be determinant on the rea ...
The reaction of (-)-(1E,3Z)-2-methyl-1-((1S)-1-phenylethoxy)penta-1,3-dien-3-ol benzoate with allyltrimethylsilane in SO,- and in the presence of a catalytic amount of Tf2NTMS gives a silyl sulfinate intermediate that furnishes (-)-(6Z,1'S,4S,5S)-5-methyl- ...
The method and app. for carrying out electrochem. promoted catalytic reactions, i.e., catalytic reactions where the catalytic rate and selectivity is modified by applying an elec. current or potential between the porous catalyst film which is deposited on ...
A novel composite material based on carbon nanofibers (CNF) grown on sintered metal fibers (SMFInconel) filter was investigated for its favorable properties as catalytic support. The CNF were formed directly over the SMFInconel by thermal (650 degrees C) c ...
