Thermal 1,6-Electrocyclization Reactions of Acceptor-Substituted 2,3-Divinyl-1H-indoles Yielding Functionalized Carbazoles
1990
Three new synthetic procedures for and thermal 1,6-electrocyclizations of acceptor-substituted 2,3-divinyl-1H-indoles leading to functionalizing carbazoles are described. The scope and limitations as well as some mechanistic aspects of the methodologies are discussed. The key strategies employed include Pd(II)-catalyzed coupling and Wittig procedures.
Oxidative Coupling Reactions of 1,3-Diarylpropene Derivatives to Dibenzo[a,c]cycloheptenes by PIFA
2011
The oxidative cyclization reactions of a variety of α-benzyl-cinnamates can be selectively performed with hypervalent iodine as an oxidant. The dibenzo[a,c]cycloheptenes were isolated in up to 55 % yield. When an oxo substrate is applied, the yield was significantly increased. With this synthetic approach, a central intermediate for the synthesis of metasequirin-B was obtained in three steps from very simple starting materials. For this transformation, both aryl moieties have to be activated.
Non-classicality of optomechanical devices in experimentally realistic operating regimes
2013
Enforcing a non-classical behavior in mesoscopic systems is important for the study of the boundaries between quantum and classical world. Recent experiments have shown that optomechanical devices are promising candidates to pursue such investigations. Here we consider two different setups where the indirect coupling between a three-level atom and the movable mirrors of a cavity is achieved. The resulting dynamics is able to conditionally prepare a non-classical state of the mirrors by means of projective measurements operated over a pure state of the atomic system. The non-classical features are persistent against incoherent thermal preparation of the mechanical systems and their dissipati…
