Electroactivation of Transition Metal Redox Couples for the Carbonylation of Alcohols to Dialkylcarbonates

1998

Electrochemical systems which promote the carbonylation of methanol to dimethylcarbonate, based on the anodic activation of transition metal redox couples, or the Br−/Br2 couple, are poorly active for the carbonylation of ethanol to diethylcarbonate at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Positive results have been obtained by combined addiction of PdBr2 and Bu4NBr to the system. In this way yields up to 50% in diethylcarbonate were obtained, with very good conductivities in long range electrolyses.

Thermal rearrangements of 1,2-dialkoxybenzenes by flash vacuum pyrolysis

1995

Flash vacuum pyrolysis of 1,2-dialkoxybenzenes 1a-c leads to the liberation of alkanes from the interacting side chains. A rearrangement of the skeleton yields the o-hydroxy carbonyl compounds 2 and 4. The generation of phenol 3 can be rationalized by a decarbonylation. The latter reaction is the sole process which can be observed for the bicyclic starting compound 9.

Switchable palladium-catalyst reaction of bromomethyl sulfoxides, CO, and N-nucleophiles: aminocarbonylation at Csp3 versus oxidative carbonylation o…

2012

The palladium-catalyzed reaction of α-bromomethyl sulfoxides, carbon monoxide, and N-nucleophiles follows different reaction pathways according to the catalytic system and the reaction conditions. The Pd-xantphos catalyst affords high yields of α-sulfinyl amides by an aminocarbonylation process and is the first example of this type of transformation for a nonbenzylic sp(3)-hybridized carbon. On the other hand, the oxidative carbonylation of amines occurs with α-bromomethyl sulfoxides, carbon monoxide, and catalytic Pd(PPh(3))(4) under aerobic conditions, yielding ureas and oxalamides from either primary or secondary amines. The reaction with ambident nucleophiles such as amino alcohols was …

Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki Carbonylative Reaction of α-Halomethyl Oxime Ethers: A Regioselective Route to Unsymmetrical 1,3-Oxyiminoketones

ChemInform Abstract: Palladium-Catalyzed Alkoxy- and Aminocarbonylation of α-Halomethyl Oxime Ethers: Synthesis of 1,3-Alkoxyimino Esters and 1,3-Alk…

2015

The three component reactions of α-bromomethyl oxime ethers, carbon monoxide, and alcohols or aromatic amines give imino esters and amides, respectively.

A new method for the regioselective synthesis of β-enamino acid derivatives

1993

Abstract A mild, simple and efficient route to β-enamino imidazole carbonilic derivatives 3 by reaction of ketimines with N,N′ -carbonyl diimidazole in the presence of boron triflouride as catalyst has been developed. The conversion of 3 to esters has also been explored.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Fluorinated Isoindolinones through Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Amination of Enantioenriched Benzylic Carbamates

2015

The asymmetric synthesis of fluorinated isoindolinones has been achieved by a palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation reaction of the corresponding -fluoroalkyl o-iodobenzylamines. A base-mediated anti -hydride elimination process was suggested to explain the partial erosion of the optical purity observed in some cases. This mechanistic rationale enabled the minimization of this partial racemization by fine-tuning the pK(a) of the base.

Palladium-Catalyzed Hydroxycarbonylation of Aryl and Vinyl Bromides by Mixed Acetic Formic Anhydride

2006

The palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl and vinyl bromides in the presence of acetic anhydride and lithium formate as a carbon monoxide source has been developed. The combination of palladium(II) acetate with 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) is an efficient catalytic system when the reaction is carried out at 120 °C.

First Synthesis of β-Keto Sulfoxides by a Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Suzuki Reaction

2005

[reaction: see text] An unprecedented palladium-catalyzed three-component cross-coupling reaction between alpha-bromo sulfoxide, carbon monoxide, and aromatic boronic acids provides a new and efficient approach to the synthesis of beta-ketosulfoxides. The reaction takes place under mild conditions with a wide range of variously substituted aryl and heteroaryl boronic acids. The carbonylative cross-coupling reaction is strongly favored over competing direct cross-coupling and homocoupling processes, except with boronic acids carrying strong electron-withdrawing substituents.

Centenarian offspring: A model for understanding healthy aging

2018

Centenarians exhibit extreme longevity showing a compression of morbidity. We showed previously that microRNA expression profiles and plasma protein carbonylation in centenarians and young people are similar, whereas they are very different from that found in old individuals. This suggests that centenarians have a better control of homeostasis and are protected against oxidative damage. In this study, we aimed to determine if such characteristic microRNA expression profile and lower protein oxidation status in centenarians may be inherited by their offspring. For this purpose, we collected plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 90 septuagenarians, 68 centenarians and 46 centenar…
