Different types of microstructures and their applicationswith respect to the synthesis and the use of ionic liquids are presented. Microstructured reactors are suitable for reactions with fast intrinsic kinetics, requiring high mass and heat transfer perfo ...
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 ...
A temperature programmed treatment of MoO3 in flowing N-2 + H-2 has been employed to prepare beta-phase molybdenum nitride (beta-Mo2N) which has been used to promote, for the first time, the catalytic hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene. The reduction/ni ...
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 ...
Hexofuranosides are widely spread in nature, and notably in numerous pathogenic microorganisms. This particular five-membered ring for hexosides leads to novel biological properties and, as usual in glycochemistry, to completely different reactivity and se ...
A review. This review describes a concept aimed at rational and maximal structure proliferation. To this end, simple arom. or heterocyclic starting materials, often bulk chems., are converted into all regioisomerically possible polar organometallic interme ...
Sulphur dioxide reacts with 1-oxydienes generating zwitterions which are quenched by enoxysilanes to form substituted silyl alkenylsulfinates. These intermediates are desilylated with Bu4NF and the resulting sulfinates react with MeI giving the correspondi ...
Due to the spongistatins' fascinating and complex molecular architectures, and their important biological activities, these marine macrolides have been the subject of intensive efforts directed towards their total synthesis. As an attractive alternative to ...
The regioselective and diastereoselective cyclization of acyliminium intermediates generated from aminocyclopropanes on unprotected indoles is presented. The recent results obtained in our group are compared with previous intermolecular reactions with amin ...
A new strategy for the synthesis of benzo[de][1,6]naphthyridine derivative 2,3,3a,4,5,6-hexahydroaaptamine, which involves the construction of the isoquinoline ring after elaboration of the quinoline moiety, is described. Since 2,3,3a,4,5,6-hexahydroaaptam ...
