Tandem cross enyne metathesis (CEYM)–intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction (IMDAR). An easy entry to linear bicyclic scaffolds
2015
A new tandem cross enyne metathesis (CEYM)–intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction (IMDAR) has been carried out. It involves conjugated ketones, esters or amides bearing a remote olefin and aromatic alkynes as the starting materials. The overall process enables the preparation of a small family of linear bicyclic scaffolds in a very simple manner with moderate to good levels of diastereoselectivity. This methodology constitutes one of the few examples that employ olefins differently than ethylene in tandem CEYM–IMDAR protocols.

Water in Organocatalytic Reactions
2013
Water is a green solvent: it is cheap, safe and environmentally friendly compared with organic solvents. Pfizer Corp. has defined a solvent guide that encourages the use of preferred solvents, for example, water or ethyl acetate, over usable solvents, for example, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and undesirable solvents, for example, dimethylformamide (DMF) [1]. However, chemical reactions carried out in or on water are not necessarily green reactions. Indeed, if we consider a reaction involving two species (A and B) and a product (C), the requirement for an ideal situation is when the product C has zero solubility and is quantitatively recovered by filtration, leaving no starting compounds A an…
Preparation and Structure of Diexo-Oxanorbornane-fused 1,3-Heterocycles
2004
Via the reaction of diexo-oxanorbornanedicarboxylic anhydride with toluene, the diexo-aroylcarboxylic acid (3a) was prepared, which exists partly as the tautomeric lactol (3b). With bifunctional reagents, 3a yields fused heterocycles containing three-six rings. Thus, alkylenediamines result in imidazole- and 1,3-diazepine-fused oxygen- bridged isoindolones (6a,b), alkanolamines form the oxazole- and 1,3-oxazine-fused oxanorbornene derivatives (7a-c), and o-phenylenediamine undergoes cyclization to furnish the condensed benzimidazole (8). The reaction of 3a with diexo- aminonorbornanecarbohydrazide yields a pyrimidopyridazine containing six condensed rings (9). In a similar reaction with die…
Multi-olefin containing polyethers and triazolinediones: a powerful alliance
2019
Multi-functional polyethers with ene or diene moieties were prepared via the polymerisation of tailored functional glycidyl ether monomers to create a platform for click chemistry with triazolinediones (TADs). Specifically, two novel monomers (i) 2,4-hexadien-1-yl glycidyl ether (HDEGE) and (ii) citronellyl glycidyl ether (CitroGE), designed to undergo a Diels–Alder or Alder–Ene reaction with TADs, respectively, were synthesized and subsequently transformed into a variety of tailored polyethers, either via the monomer activated method or anionic ring opening polymerisation. Multi-functional copolymers of HDEGE with ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and ethoxy ethyl glycidyl ether as well as A…
2-Alkenoyl Pyridine N-Oxides, Highly Efficient Dienophiles for the Enantioselective Cu(II)−Bis(oxazoline) Catalyzed Diels−Alder Reaction
2007
2-Alkenoyl pyridine N-oxides are introduced as a new kind of efficient dienophiles for the Cu(II)−bis(oxazoline) (BOX) catalyzed enantioselective Diels−Alder reaction affording higher reactivity and enantioselectivity (ee's up to 96%) than the corresponding nonoxidized 2-alkenoyl pyridines.
A DFT study of the polar Diels–Alder reaction between 4-aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxan and cyclopentadiene
2005
Abstract The polar Diels–Alder reaction between 4-aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxan (ANBF) and cyclopentadiene has been studied using DFT procedures at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. Only one highly asynchronous transition state structure associated to the formation of the [4+2] adduct 13 is found. A further [3,3] sigmatropic shift on the [4+2] cycloadduct 13 allows its conversion into the thermodynamically more stable [2+4] cycloadduct 14 . The analysis of the global and local electrophilicities of the reagents correctly explain the behaviour of ANBF as a strong electrophile in polar cycloadditions.
A DFT Study of the Molecular Mechanisms of the Diels−Alder Reaction between Cyclopentadiene and 3-Phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one − Role of the Z…
2002
The molecular mechanism of the Diels−Alder reaction between cyclopentadiene (1) and 3-phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one (2) in the absence and in the presence of a Zn2+ Lewis acid catalyst has been studied by quantum mechanical calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. A continuum model was selected to represent the effects of the water as solvent. For the uncatalyzed process, two channels, endo and exo, were characterized, and the mechanism corresponded to an asynchronous concerted reaction associated with a [4+2] process. The presence of a Lewis acid catalyst changed the mechanism drastically, the reaction taking place by a polar stepwise mechanism. In the first step, a C−C sigm…
Approach Matters : The Kinetics of Interfacial Inverse-Electron Demand Diels-Alder Reactions
2017
Rapid and quantitative click functionalization of surfaces remains an interesting challenge in surface chemistry. In this regard, inverse electron demand Diels Alder (IEDDA) reactions represent a promising metal-free candidate. Herein, we reveal quantitative surface functionalization within 15 min. Furthermore, we report the comprehensive effects of substrate stereochemistry, surrounding microenvironment and substrate order on the reaction kinetics as obtained via a combination of XPS and surface-bound mass spectrometry (DART-MS).
