A stereoselective synthesis of (+)-malyngolide via a ring-closing olefin metathesis
2000
Abstract A very short and stereoselective synthesis of the non-natural enantiomer of malyngolide from l -erythrulose is described. Key features of the synthesis are the Felkin–Anh diastereoselective allylation of a polyoxygenated ketone and the allylation/metathesis/allylic oxidation protocol recently described by our group.
Asymmetric Tandem Reactions: New Strategies and Applications
2013
Abstract The application of allylic sulphoxides and, particularly, the chiral amine reagent tert-butanesulphinamide has been extended to three different tandem processes. The condensation of (R)-(+)-allyl p-tolyl sulphoxide, fluorinated nitriles and alkyl propiolates led to a new family of enantiomerically pure fluorine-containing 1,4- dihydropyridines. A diastereoselective nucleophilic addition of fluorinated nucleophiles onto (R)-(tert-butanesulphinyl) imines, followed by an intramolecular aza-Michael reaction gave rise to either fluorinated isoindolines or 3-substituted indanones in a stereoselective manner.
New Strategies for the Synthesis of Fluorinated Vinylogous Amidines and β-Enamino Ketones
2001
Reaction of fluorinated imidoyl chlorides 3 with ketimines 1a provides fluorinated 1,3-diimines, which were exclusively isolated as vinylogous amidine tautomers 2beta, with good yields. Fluorinated beta-enamino ketones 4 are obtained by regioselective hydrolysis of 2. Complementary methods for the synthesis of regioisomeric beta-enamino ketones 4 and 5 are also reported. These methods include the reaction of azaenolates of ketimines with fluorinated esters 6 and reactions of ketone enolates with fluorinated imidoyl chlorides 3. The behavior of these systems in hydrolysis reactions was also tested.
ChemInform Abstract: A Novel Synthesis of Chain-Extended Amino Sugar Derivatives Through Aza-Cope Rearrangement of N-Galactosyl-N-homoallylamines.

Abstract Chain-extended amino sugars are synthesized via stereocontrolled Lewis acid-catalyzed aza-Cope rearrangement of N-glycosyl homoallylamines in high yield and stereoselectivity.
Photocatalytic oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aldehydes in aqueous suspension of home prepared titanium dioxide
2008
In this paper some intrinsic electronic properties of home prepared (HP) TiO2 catalysts were investigated by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and quasi-Fermi level measurements. These powders were used for carrying out the photocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and CO2 in water; the selectivity for aldehyde formation was enhanced by the addition of small amounts of ethanol, a typical hole trap. The values of band gap, valence band and conduction band edges are almost identical for all the HP samples in which anatase phase is predominant, whereas appreciable differences can be noticed for an HP sample containing high amount of rutile phase. A comparative ATR-FTIR study of…
A DFT study of the mechanism of NHC catalysed annulation reactions involving α,β-unsaturated acyl azoliums and β-naphthol.
2016
The mechanism of NHC catalysed annulation reactions involving an α,β-unsaturated acyl azolium and β-naphthol has been studied using DFT methods at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d,p) level in toluene. For the C-C bond formation step, which corresponds to the rate- and stereo-determining step of this NHC catalysed reaction, the two competitive addition modes, i.e. the 1,2- and the 1,4-additions, have been studied. In toluene, acyl azolium forms an ion pair (IP) with the counterion chloride anion. Interestingly, β-naphthol forms a hydrogen bond with the chloride anion of IP, increasing the nucleophilic character of β-naphthol and the electrophilic character of the acyl azolium moiety. For the first time, …
Total Synthesis of (-)-C/D-cis-Dehydro-3-O-methyl-estradiols
2015
A convergent synthesis of (–)-dehydro-3-O-methyl-C/D-cis-estradiol started from stereochemically defined substituted optically active 3-(2-arylethyl)-γ-butyrolactones. Regioselective bromination of the anisyl moiety, reductive ring opening of the iodolactone, and protecting-group changes led to a Weinreb amide. This then underwent an intramolecular Grignard reaction closing the B-ring to give a tetralone with defined configuration. Introduction of C-11 through an allyl Grignard addition and subsequent ring-closing metathesis gave a tetrahydro phenanthrene derivative. Oxidation of the side-chain alcohol resulted in the key aldehyde group, and a final samarium-diiodide-mediated reductive D-ri…

Abstract Bifunctional electrophiles with C4-, C6-, and C8-chains are reacted with the cyclooctatetraene dianion to selectively give novel cycloannelation and bridging products which possess a surprising stereochemistry and are useful starting compounds for further syntheses.
Electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film for selective extraction of iodide ion from aqueous solutions
2021
Abstract The effective extraction and regeneration of radioactive iodide remains an urgent concern for safe nuclear energy utilization. Herein, we developed a novel electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film, which exhibited excellent I− ion extraction capacity of 328.3 mg·g−1. Especially, due to the ion vacancy trap effect, the film showed high selectivity towards I− ions in the existence of a large number of competitive anions. Additionally, the electrochemically switched ion extraction (ESIE) process with this iodide-vacancy BiOI film possessed fast extraction kinetics and high stability. More importantly, the trapped I− ions were easily desorbed from the film without the secon…
