New approaches to the synthesis of organofluorine nitrogenated derivatives
2004
Fluorinated carboxylic acids are valuable building blocks for several types of organofluorine nitrogenated derivatives. In this review paper, several strategies that use these compounds as starting materials are described. First, fluorinated seven-membered cyclic β-amino esters can be diastereoselectively synthesized from these compounds with a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction as the key step. The use of the RCM reaction in a different approach enables the preparation of fluorinated cyclic α-amino acid derivatives. Fluorinated carboxylic acids also constitute the starting material for the asymmetric synthesis of fluorinated allylic amines. Finally, a solution and solid-phase synthesis…
Novel Approach for Asymmetric Synthesis of Fluorinated β-Amino Sulfones and Allylic Amines
2003
[reaction: see text] Enantiomerically pure gamma-fluoroalkyl beta-amino sulfones are readily synthesized in three steps starting from fluorinated imidoyl chlorides and arylmethyl sulfones. A complementary two-step sequence starting from chiral fluorinated beta-amino sulfoxides has also been developed. To illustrate the application of this procedure, a new method for the synthesis of alpha-fluoroalkyl allylic amines in optically pure form involving a Julia methylenation-desulfonylation reaction is presented.
Investigation of the aqueous transmetalation of π-allylpalladium with indium salt: the use of the Pd(OAc)2–TPPTS catalyst
2005
pi-Allylpalladium complexes could be generated in water by the palladium(0) water soluble catalyst prepared in situ from palladium acetate and TPPTS. These complexes were transmetalated with indium to react with benzaldehyde. The aqueous solution of Pd(0)(TPPTS)(n) could be reused without deterioration of the catalyst in the first and second recycling. The system proved to be efficient with primary and secondary allylic substrates. The stereochemical outcome of the allylation through umpolung of allylpalladium, was also studied using models with a restraint conformation.
γ-Silylboronates in the chiral Brønsted acid-catalysed allylboration of aldehydes.
2014
The use of functionalised allylboronic esters in the catalytic enantioselective allylboration of aldehydes is described for the first time. γ-Silylallyl pinacolate derivatives give rise to α-silyl homoallylic alcohols in high yields, with complete diastereoselectivities and high enantioselectivities, in most of the cases. The usefulness of such intermediates is showcased by their transformation into fluorinated allylic alcohols.

2016
The power you're supplying: With the application of an optimized electrochemical approach, the allylic oxidation of olefins, which is an important C-H activation process that provides access to enones, becomes a sustainable, versatile, and potent key reaction for organic synthesis.
ENANTIOSELECTIVE REDUCTION OF PROCHIRAL KETONES PROMOTED BY AMINO AMIDE RUTHENIUM COMPLEXES: A DFT STUDY
2021
International audience; The origin of enantioselectivity in the reaction of chiral Ru amino amide complexes in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone was investigated using DFT calculations. For the most stable active catalysts, the full free energy profiles for the reaction were calculated according to the concerted hydrogen transfer mechanism. We succeeded in reproducing the experimentally observed enantioselectivity for the studied Ru amino amide complexes. Our results indicate that the high enantioselectivity can be explained by a stabilizing CH-π interaction existing between the phenyl group of acetophenone and the aromatic substituent of the catalyst, which plays a sign…
Stabilization of hsp70 mRNA on prolonged cell exposure to hypertonicity
2002
AbstractProlonged exposure of 3T3 cells to 0.5 osM hypertonic medium induced the accumulation of hsp70 mRNAs. This increase in mRNA levels required active protein synthesis. A weak and transient activation of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) was noted, but it was temporally uncoupled to the accumulation of the hsp70 mRNAs. Nuclear run-on assay and transfection experiments showed that hsp70 gene transcription was not affected by hypertonicity. ActD chase experiments showed that during hypertonic treatment, degradation of hsp70 mRNAs was markedly reduced. This effect did not appear to be a general phenomenon since the increase in mRNA level of another gene induced by hypertonicity (ATA2 transporter…
Low-loading asymmetric organocatalysis
2011
Asymmetric organocatalysis is now recognized as the third pillar of asymmetric synthesis. Recent years have witnessed increasing interest towards the use of highly active and stereoselective organocatalysts. This critical review documents the advances in the development of chiral organocatalysts which are systematically used in ≤3 mol% loading in all the sub-areas of the field, namely aminocatalysis, Brønsted acids and bases, Lewis acids and bases, hydrogen bond-mediated catalysis, phase transfer and N-heterocyclic carbene catalyses (194 references).
Influence of the electro-optical properties of an a-Si:H single layer on the performances of a pin solar cell
2012
We analyze the results of an extensive characterization study involving electrical and optical measurements carried out on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (α-Si:H) thin film materials fabricated under a wide range of deposition conditions. By adjusting the synthesis parameters, we evidenced how conductivity, activation energy, electrical transport and optical absorption of an α-Si:H layer can be modified and optimized. We analyzed the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor of the dark conductivity by varying the dopant-to-silane gas flow ratio. Optical measurements allowed to extract the absorption spectra and the optical bandgap. Additionally, we report on the temperature dependen…
Exploring alternative hapten tethering sites for high-affinity anti-picoxystrobin antibody generation
2011
The relevance of the linker tethering site in haptens was investigated for antibody generation and immunoassay development. Three derivatives of the strobilurin fungicide picoxystrobin were synthesized with the same functionalized spacer arm located at three different positions. Protein conjugates of those haptens were employed as immunogens, and novel polyclonal antibodies were produced and characterized. All haptens afforded highly specific antibodies, but different affinities to the free analyte were observed among the obtained antisera. Next, competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were studied in several formats, and site heterology was confirmed as an effective strategy for det…
