Enantioselective self-assembly of antiferromagnetic hexacopper(ii) wheels with chiral amino acid oxamates
2013
The Cu(2+)-mediated self-assembly of oxamato-based ligands derived from either the (S)- or (R)-enantiomers of the amino acid valine leads to the formation of two antiferromagnetically coupled homochiral anionic hexacopper(II) wheels in the presence of templating tetramethylammonium countercations.
New Studies and a Reinvestigation on [4+2] Cycloadditions of (−)-Thebaine: Asymmetrical Diels-Alder Reactions with a Conformationally Fixed Chiral Di…
1993
Some novel Diels-Alder reactions of the opium alkaloid (−)-thebaine (1) as an electron-rich diene and a reinvestigation of its reactions with cyclic and acyclic dienophiles are described. The π-facial selectivity has been studied on the basis of structural analyses of the cycloadducts. Some related results on [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of 1-methoxy-1,3-cyclohexadiene (11) are also reported.

Selenium Partitioning and Stable Isotope Ratios in Urban Topsoils
2011
oxides. Th e δ82/76 Se values of total Se in the topsoils were close to the bulk Earth composition with an average δ82/76 Se value of −0.03 ± SD 0.38‰ suggesting that there was no or little Se isotope fractionation in soil. We attribute the small isotope fractionation to the low bioavailability of Se as a consequence of the presence of Fe oxides (adsorbing the dominating Se(IV) forms strongly), organic matter, and SO 4 2− (prevents biouptake of the Se(IV) forms) in the study soils. Small Se isotope fractionations of −0.59 to −0.35‰ in mainly forest soils and of 0.26 to 0.45‰ in mainly alluvial soils were presumably caused by soil/plant-recycling and Se contamination by river water, respecti…
Asymmetric synthesis of polycyclic 3-fluoroalkylproline derivatives by intramolecular azomethine ylide cycloaddition
2019
The asymmetric synthesis of polycyclic fluorinated proline derivatives has been accomplished by means of an intramolecular azomethine ylide cycloaddition with fluorinated dipolarophiles. Thus, the reaction of benzaldehydes bearing a trifluoromethyl alkene in ortho position with an azomethine ylide precursor derived from chiral 2-amino indanol takes place with excellent levels of diastereoselectivity, with simultaneous generation of four stereocenters. In order to determine the influence of the fluorine moiety in the process, starting material bearing non-fluorinated alkenes were synthesised. In this case, a dramatic drop of selectivity occurred, which indicates that the role of the fluorine…
The role of the trifluoromethyl group in reactivity and selectivity in polar cycloaddition reactions. A DFT study
2012
Abstract The role of the trifluoromethyl group in reactivity, regio-, and stereoselectivity in cycloaddition reactions has been analyzed by studying the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (13DC) reactions of nitrone 4 with 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-nitropropene 7b and 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-nitropropene 14 using density functional theory (DFT) methods at the B3LYP/6-311G(d) level. The recent M06-2X functional has also been evaluated but, although the thermodynamic performance is improved, the kinetic data are not necessarily better than those obtained by the popular B3LYP functional for cycloaddition reactions. Four reactive channels associated with the meta and ortho regio- and endo and exo stereoselective appr…
Selective Formal Transesterification of Fluorinated 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethyl α-Imino Esters Mediated by TBAF
2008
The scope of the transesterification reaction between beta-fluorinated alpha-imino esters and various electrophiles in the presence of TBAF as fluorine source is described. The reaction is highly selective for alkyl iodides, bromides, and mesylates, while alkyl chlorides react at a significantly slower rate and tosylates do not react under the reaction conditions. This methodology represents a simple and useful alternative for the preparation of a wide variety of fluorinated alpha-imino esters.
Stereoselective synthesis of C-glycosyl compounds via Michael addition of trimethylsilyl enol ethers and enamines to hex-1-enopyran-3-uloses
1987
Abstract The titanium(IV)-catalyzed addition of trimethylsilyl enol ethers to 2,4,6-tri- O -acylhex - 1 - enopyran - 3 - uloses ( 3 and 4 ) gave stereoselectively 3,6 - di - O - acyl - 4 - deoxy - β - d - glycero -hex-3-enopyranosyl-2-ulose derivatives. The formation of the C -glycosyl bond was accompanied by a 2→3 acyl shift, followed by the elimination of the 4-acyloxy substituent. Similarly, the reaction of 1-pyrrolidinocyclohexene with 3 and 4 also led stereoselectively to 2-(2,4,6-tri- O -acyl-β- d - ribo -hexopyranosyl)cyclohexanones. In this Michael addition, among the eight possible diastereomers, only one was formed. The high stereocontrol of both C -glycosyl compound syntheses is …
Enantioselective Synthesis of Substituted Indoles Through Zirconium(IV)-Catalyzed Friedel–Crafts Alkylation
2012
The chiral complex of ( R )-3,3′-Br 2 -BINOL and zirconium tert -butoxide catalyzes the Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indoles with enones bearing an alkyl or fluorinated group at the β-position to give indoles having a side chain at the C3 position with a tertiary stereogenic center in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.
Polar [3 + 2] cycloaddition of ketones with electrophilically activated carbonyl ylides. Synthesis of spirocyclic dioxolane indolinones
2008
International audience; The [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between carbonyl ylides generated from epoxides and ketones (ethyl pyruvate, ethyl phenylglyoxylate, isatin, N-methylisatin and 5-chloroisatin) to give substituted dioxolanes and spirocyclic dioxolane indolinones was investigated. The effect of microwave irradiation on the outcome of the reaction was studied. The thermal reaction between 2,2-dicyano-3-phenyloxirane and N-methylisatin was theoretically studied using DFT methods. This reaction is a domino process that comprises two steps. The first is the thermal ring opening of the epoxide to yield a carbonyl ylide intermediate, whereas the second step is a polar [3 + 2] cycloadditio…
