In this section, the synthesis of saturated N- and O-heterocycles via formal cycloaddition is presented. The main focus is on metal-catalyzed reactions involving C–C or C–X σ bond cleavage in three- or four-membered rings. After a fast presentation of pion ...
An efficient synthesis of chiral dihydrooxazines from 1-aryl-2-amino-propane-1,3-diols via the corresponding bistrichloroacetimidate intermediates has been developed. In this transformation, one trichloroacetimidate acts as a leaving group and the other ac ...
Room temperature ionic liquids comprise an unique class of solvent composed of organic and inorganic-based ions that are molten under ambient conditions. They are characterised by high solvent polarity and low vapour pressure, and can be tailored to have s ...
The increasing progress in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology requires more versatile synthetic strategies for the generation of libraries of active compounds and theirs analogues. A wide range of biologically active natural and synthetic compounds c ...
Natural polyketides show important biological activity. The inherent stereochemical complexity present in this class of molecules has captured the imagination of organic chemists. Their stereocontrolled, asymmetric total synthesis is a permanent and stimul ...
Ring strain confers to the cyclopropane ring an exceptional reactivity. Nevertheless, activation of the cyclopropane ring is usually needed to allow ring-opening reactions under mild conditions. The introduction of one or several carbonyl functionalities o ...
2-Methylprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluorides can be easily prepared via the ene reaction of methallylsilanes and SO2. In the presence of a base, aldehydes and 2-methylprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluorides give 1.3-(E) and (Z)-dienes. Their (Z) --> (E) isomerization b ...
At low temperature and in the presence of an acid catalyst, SO2 adds to 1,3-dienes equilibrating with the corresponding 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxathiin-2-oxides (sultines). These compounds are unstable above -60 degrees C and equilibrate with the more stable 2,5- ...
Abstract: Activated cyclopropanes, such as vinyl and carbonyl cyclopropanes, are useful building blocks in organic chemistry due to their exceptional reactivity. This review focuses on the use of cyclopropyl carbonyls and imines in cyclization and cycloadd ...
A series of sulfonium salts derived from 1,5-dithiopent-1-enopyranosides was prepared in a three-step sequence from protected D- and L-erythrofuranoses. The key step is the nucleophilic displacement of a leaving group by a sulfur atom of carbohydrate-deriv ...
