ChemInform Abstract: 1,4-Regioselective Iodofunctionalizations of 1,3-Butadiene.
1989
1,3-Butadiene (I) is treated with a iodonium tetrafluoroborate in the presence of HBF4 and aqueous acetonitrile (II) or benzene (IV), yielding the 1,4-adducts (III) or (V).
ChemInform Abstract: Acid-Mediated Reaction of Bis(pyridine)iodonium(I) Tetrafluoroborate with Aromatic Compounds. A Selective and General Iodination…
2010
Reaction of aromatic compounds with bis(pyridine)iodonium(I) tetrafluoroborate (IPy2BF4) in the presence of HBF4 or CF3SO3H in CH2Cl2 at room temperature furnishes monoiodo derivatives with excellent regioselectivity and yields. Use of either acid gives comparable results with activated aromatics, whereas CF3SO3H is much more effective in the iodination of deactivated aromatics. © 1993 American Chemical Society.
ChemInform Abstract: New Studies and a Reinvestigation on (4 + 2) Cycloadditions of (-)- Thebaine: Asymmetrical Diels-Alder Reactions with a Conforma…
2010
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.

ChemInform Abstract: Enhanced Activity and Stereoselectivity of Polystyrene-Supported Proline-Based Organic Catalysts for Direct Asymmetric Aldol Rea…
2010
Several polystyrene-supported proline dipeptides and a prolinamide derivative were prepared by thiol–ene coupling. These materials were used as catalysts for the direct asymmetric aldol reaction in water, and results compared with unsupported catalysts in water. Such an approach gave more active or stereoselective catalysts compared to the unsupported compounds, showing that our immobilization procedure may be useful to develop catalytic materials with enhanced performance. Moreover, these catalysts can be recovered and reused for at least nine times without loss of activity or can be easily regenerated when their activity has decreased. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis and Stereochemical Studies of 2-Substituted Thiazolidine-4-carboxamide Derivatives.
2010
A series of new 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives which have potentially useful immunological properties, have been synthesized in a stereoselective manner by coupling 2-subsituted thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids with amines or amino esters. The structure of these compounds was established by combination of NMR methods and by X-ray analysis.
ChemInform Abstract: Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Ring-Opening of Strained Olefins Through C-H Activation of O-Acetyl Ketoximes: An Efficient Synthesis of …
2014
An efficient strategy for the stereoselective synthesis of functionalized cyclopentenes and spiro[2.4]heptenes from strained olefins via C–H activation of aryl ketone O-acetyl ketoximes using [RhCl2Cp∗]2 catalyst is described. The results revealed that a wide range of readily accessible aryl and heteroaryl ketoximes are compatible in this method for the ring opening of bicyclic and spirotricyclic olefins.
Ab Initio Study of Stereo- and Regioselectivity in the Diels−Alder Reaction between 2-Phenylcyclopentadiene and α-(Methylthio)acrylonitrile
1997
Ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been used to investigate the Diels−Alder reaction between 2-phenylcyclopentadiene and α-(methylthio)acrylonitrile. Geometry optimizations were performed with the RHF/3-21G, RHF/3-21G*, and RHF/6-31G* calculations while the correlation energy has been calculated at MP2 and MP3 levels. Four asynchronous transition structures corresponding to the formation of different stereoisomers and regioisomers associated with the four reaction channels have been located. The observed endo/exo stereoselectivity and para/meta regioselectivity are correctly described at all levels of calculation, and the calculated activation energies reflect accurately the rela…
