DFT Study of the Molecular Mechanism of Lewis Acid Induced [4 + 3] Cycloadditions of 2-Alkylacroleins with Cyclopentadiene
2009
The mechanism of the Lewis acid (AlCl(3)) induced [4 + 3] cycloaddition of 2-methylacrolein with cyclopentadiene (Cp) [ J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 2692] has been examined here through DFT calculations at the MPW1K(DCM)/6-31+G** level. Formation of these seven-membered carbocycles is a domino process that comprises three consecutive reactions. The first one is a polar Diels-Alder reaction that is initialized by the nucleophilic attack of Cp to the beta-conjugated position of acrolein, yielding the formation of the endo and exo [4 + 2] cycloadducts. The corresponding LA-[4 + 2] cycloadduct complexes equilibrate through a skeleton rearrangement with a low free activation energy with two seve…
Reaction Mechanism of an Intramolecular Oxime Transfer Reaction: A Computational Study
2014
Density functional theory (PBE0/def2-TZVPP) calculations in conjunction with a polarizable continuum model were used to assess the mechanism of the intramolecular oxime transfer reaction that leads to the formation of isoxazolines. Different diastereomers of the intermediates as well as different oximes (formaldehyde and acetone oxime) were considered. The computed reaction profile predicts the water-addition and -expulsion steps as the highest barriers along the pathway, a conclusion that is in line with the experimental evidence obtained previously for these reactions.
Synthesis of Elemane Bis-Lactones from Santonin – Synthesis of the Reported Structure ofseco-Isoerivanin Pseudo Acid and Formal Synthesis of (+)-8-De…
2000
The synthesis of the reported structure for seco-isoerivanin pseudo acid (1) and of an elemane bis-lactone 5 from santonin (4) through a common vinylic precursor 12 is described. Compound 5 is a known intermediate in a previous synthesis of the antitumor compound (+)-8-deoxyvernolepin (3). The vinyl group of 12 underwent a regio- and diastereoselective anti addition of an external electrophile and an intramolecular condensation to yield either the selenolactone 13 or the hydroxylactone 17. The lactones 13 and 17 served as key intermediates in the total synthesis of 1 and 5 respectively. A revision of the structure of seco-isoerivanin pseudo acid to the C-10 epimer is suggested on the basis …

The Chemistry of the [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines: An Update
2010
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the recent advancement in the chemistry of [1,2,3] triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines. It describes new discoveries in the physical properties and theoretical chemistry, focusing on synthesis of [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine system, synthesis of novel aryltriazolopyridines, chiral ligands from [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines, pyridylcarbene formation from triazolopyridines, ring-chain isomerization on [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines, and novel pyridylcarbonylpyridines. All triazolopyridines have interesting ligand properties to form polynuclear complexes with different metal ions. X-ray single-crystal studies, magnetic, photo-magnetic, and colorimetric measur…
An approach to polymer-supported triplet benzophenone photocatalysts. Application to sustainable photocatalysis of an α-diazocarbonyl compound
2013
Covalent immobilization of 4-hydroxybenzophenone on Merrifield resins affords new heterogeneous polymeric triplet photocatalysts. Their successful application in the intramolecular triplet-sensitized photolysis of a α-diazo β-keto ester has been achieved under sustainable criteria. Remarkably, the simple recovery and reuse for up to five sequential applications have been performed, although resulting in a slightly decreasing activity.
1983
The kinetics of the electrophilic bromination of 17 oligonuclear phenolic compounds with molecular bromine in acetic acid were studied at 22°C. Some of these compounds, consisting of up to 6 phenolic units, which are linked in ortho-position by methylene bridges, and having only one (or two) reactive ortho-position(s) at the end of the molecule, were synthesized for the first time. It could be shown, even for hexanuclear compounds, that the variation of substituents at one end of the molecule leads to a change in the reactivity at the other end, that means over a distance of 22 nonconjugated covalent links. So far, this can be explained only by a chain of intramolecular hydrogen bonds betwe…
Pyrene-benzoylthiophene exciplexes as selective catalysts for the [2+2] cycloaddition between cyclohexadiene and styrenes.
2007
Efficient intramolecular fluorescence quenching in pyrene−benzoylthiophene systems leads to formation of exciplexes. These species interact with 1,3-cyclohexadiene (or styrenes), leading to reactive excited triplexes. The overall process affords [2+2] cross-cycloadducts with an average yield of 57%.
