Mild synthesis of mercaptonitriles from vinyl nitriles and their cyclization reactions

Frank Nüesch, Antonia Neels

Thiol-ene addition of thioacetic acid A is widely used in the synthesis of thiols from vinyl precursors, but so far has not been conducted on non-conjugated vinyl nitriles. The challenge when vinyl nitriles are used is to selectively conduct the thiol-ene ...

Stereoselective Synthesis of Trisubstituted Alkenes through Sequential Iron-Catalyzed Reductive anti-Carbozincation of Terminal Alkynes and Base-Metal-Catalyzed Negishi CrossCoupling

Xile Hu, Chi Wai Cheung

The stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes is challenging. Here, we show that an iron-catalyzed anti-selective carbozincation of terminal alkynes can be combined with a base-metal-catalyzed cross coupling to prepare trisubstituted alkenes in a ...

Synthesis of Triazenes with Nitrous Oxide

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Tina Riedel, Gregor Kiefer

Triazenes are valuable compounds in organic chemistry and numerous applications have been reported. Furthermore, triazenes have been investigated extensively as potential antitumor drugs. Here, we describe a new method for the synthesis of triazenes. The p ...

Intramolecular palladium-catalyzed alkene carboalkynylation

Jérôme Waser, Stefano Nicolai

Carbocycles are essential building blocks for the synthesis of natural and synthetic bioactive compounds. Herein, we report the first example of palladium-catalyzed intramolecular carboalkynylation of non-activated olefins. Using activated carbonyl compoun ...

Substituent effects on the relative rates and free energies of ortho-lithiation reactions: families of fluorobenzenes as the substrates

2-, 3- and 4-substituted fluorobenzenes and 5-substituted 1,3-difluorobenzenes were metalated with sec-butyllithium (LIS) and with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide (LiTMP) under irreversible conditions in order to determine the rates of reaction relat ...

Design of computational retrobiosynthesis tools for the design of de novo synthetic pathways

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Noushin Hadadi

Designing putative metabolic pathways is of great interest in synthetic biology. Retrobiosynthesis is a discipline that involves the design, evaluation, and optimization of de novo biosynthetic pathways for the production of high-value compounds and drugs ...

Base-Catalyzed Intramolecular Hydroamination of Cyclohexa-2,5-dienes: Insights into the Mechanism through DFT Calculations and Application to the Total Synthesis of epi-Elwesine

Kurt Schenk

The base-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of 1-ethylaminocyclohexa-2,5-dienes is described. The transformation proceeds through isomerization of the cyclohexa-1,4-dienyl fragment into the corresponding conjugated 1,3-diene prior to the hydroaminatio ...

Direct Evaluation of the Hyperconjugative Interactions in 1,1,1-Trihaloethane (CH3CX3, X = F, Cl, and Br)

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf

Following the computational strategy proposed by Mulliken in 1939 (J. Chem. Phys. 1939, 7 (5), 339-352), when the concept of hyperconjugation was coined, we evaluated the hyperconjugative stabilization energy in 1,1,1-trihaloethane using the block-localize ...

Intricacies of Describing Weak Interactions involving Halogen Atoms within Density Functional Theory

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Manuel Dömer

In this work we assess the performance of different dispersion-corrected DFT approaches (M06, M06-2X, DFT-D3 and DCACP) in reproducing high-level wave function based benchmark calculations on the weakly bound halogen dimers (X2)2 and X2-Ar (for X=F,Cl,Br,I ...
