Copper-Catalyzed Oxyvinylation of Diazo Compounds

Jérôme Waser, Guillaume Dominique Pisella, Alec Gagnebin

A copper(I)-catalyzed vinylation of diazo compounds with vinylbenziodoxolone reagents (VBX) as partners is reported. The transformation tolerates diverse functionalities on both reagents delivering polyfunctionalized vinylated products. The strategy was su ...

An Enantioselective Cp x Rh(III)‐Catalyzed C−H Functionalization/Ring‐Opening Route to Chiral Cyclopentenylamines

Nicolai Cramer, Shouguo Wang

A chiral CpxRhIII catalyst system in situ generated from a CpxRhI(cod) precatalyst and bis(o‐toluoyl) peroxide as activating oxidant was developed for a C−H activation/ring‐opening sequence between aryl ketoxime ethers and 2,3‐diazabicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐5‐ene ...

Built-in 5-Aminooxazole as an Internal Activator of the Terminal Carboxylic Acid: An Alternative Access to Macrocyclodepsipeptides

Jieping Zhu

A conceptually novel macrolactonization technology is described. A strategically positioned 5-aminooxazole served as an internal traceless activator of the neighboring C-terminal carboxylic acid allowing the occurrence of macrolactonization under mild acid ...

Diversity-oriented synthesis of furo[3,2-f]chromanes with antimycobacterial activity

Stewart Cole

We previously reported the synthesis and the antimycobacterial activity of 4-(7,7-dimethyl-7H-furo[3,2-f]chromen-2-yl)pyridine. From this result, we sought to design simple synthetic accesses to related structures allowing the preparation of a diverse set ...

The synthesis and characterisation of bis(phosphane)-linked (eta(6)-p-cymene)ruthenium(II)-borane compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti

The reaction of [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2]2 with some bis(phosphane) ligands (dppm, dppe, dppv, dppa, dpp14b, dppf) has been investigated. In general mixtures of products were obtained, although the pendant phosphane complexes [( ...

Le réarrangement [1,2] de Wittig : contribution à l'étude de son mécanisme et de ses applications

Frédéric Bailly

The importance of catalysis in chemistry has not to be proved anymore. Be it homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis, the constant progresses observed in that field proves its obvious interest. The asymmetric homogeneous catalysis is a method of choice to s ...

Transition metal-catalyzed carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions using sulfonyl derivatives

The goal of this thesis was to find conditions to form C-C double bond and single bond using sulfonyl derivativies, which are arising from the Vogel's oxyallylation cascades. In a second chapter, it is shown that 2-methylprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluorides can ...

New developments on silyl 2-alkenyl sulfinates and their applications to the asymmetric synthesis of polypropionate fragments

Xiaogen Huang

Sulphur dioxide reacts with 1-oxydienes generating zwitterions which are quenched by enoxysilanes to form substituted silyl alkenylsulfinates. These intermediates are desilylated with Bu4NF and the resulting sulfinates react with MeI giving the correspondi ...
