The Grubbs Reaction in Organic Synthesis
Chemexpress Alkene metathesis (e.g. 1 + 2 -> 3) has been known at least since the 1950’s. Until Robert Grubbs of Caltech developed stable and versatile Ru catalysts for this transformation,…
Enantioselective Construction of Alkylated Stereogenic Centers
Carsten Bolm of RWTH Aachen developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 8920 DOI: 10.1002/anie.200803709) an Ir catalyst that effected hydrogenation of trisubstituted enones such as 1 with high ee.…
New Methods for C-N Ring Construction
Chaozhong Li of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry demonstrated (Org. Lett. 2008, 10, 4037 DOI: 10.1021/ol801545a) facile and selective Cu-catalyzed β-lactam formation, converting 1 to 2. Paul Helquist of…
, respectively, didn’t reproducibly boost SS1P toxicity. The outcomes with
, respectively, did not reproducibly boost SS1P toxicity. The outcomes with INSR have been described previously (15). Knock down of Src slightly enhanced SS1P killing in each A431/H9 and KB…

New Methods for Functional Group Conversion
Ilya M. Lyapkalo of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Prague, showed(Synlett 2009, 558.DOI: 10.1055/s-0028-1087919)that a ketone 1 reacted with the inexpensive nonafluorobutanesulfonyl fluoridein the presence of a…
Stereocontrolled C-O Ring Construction: The Fuwa/Sasaki Synthesis of Attenol
A Since five-membered ring ethers often do not show good selectivity on equilibration, single diastereomers are best formed under kinetic control. Aaron Aponick of the University of Florida demonstrated (Org.…
C-C Single Bond Construction
Several remarkable one-carbon homologations have recently appeared. André B. 1228281-54-6 Data Sheet Charette of the Université de Montréal reported (J. 2869955-58-6 Formula Org. Chem. 2008, 73, 8097. DOI: 10.1021/jo8014616) the…
Part 1: Ultrasound-promoted palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reactions
Ultrasound-Promoted Heck Reaction in Room Temperature Ionic Liquids In 2001, Srinivasan and co-workers form National Chemical Laboratory, Pune, described the first Heck reaction performed in ionic liquids (IL) under ultrasound…
Part 2: Application of Ultrasound Irradiation in Carbohydrate Synthesis
Ultrasound energy: a powerful tool for carbohydrate synthesis Chang and co-workers from Utah State University, USA, have demonstrated that a large number of conventional reactions commonly employed for the synthesis…
