Synthetic and theoretical studies of novel ring closure and ring opening reactions
2006
Ring closure and ring opening reactions are in many cases useful synthetic procedures in organic chemistry. They allow the preparation of complex molecules with high stereoselectivity and good yields. Mechanistic and theoretical studies have been carried out on the transformation of 2-aminopyrimidines into imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidines and guanidines, respectively, through ring closure and ring opening reactions, as well as the transamidation reactions through the ring closure and ring opening of guanidine derivatives, which constitute novel synthetic methods.

Base-promoted direct amidation of esters: beyond the current scope and practical applications
2022
The base-promoted direct amidation of unactivated esters is among the most useful reactions for amide bond formation in contemporary organic chemistry. The intensive research in this area has led to the development of a number of new methods to achive this transformation. However, to date, the existing literature is more methodological and in many instances lacks practical directions. Therefore, the full potential of this transformation is yet to be revealed by broadening the substrate scope. In a search for new practical applications of the amidation reaction, herein we present a comprehensive study of a number of base-promoted direct amidations that encompass a wide range of amines and es…
