In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)(2) and XantPhos, the three-component reaction of ynones, imines, and aryl iodides affords fully substituted alkylidene-furan-3(2H)-ones via a sequence of the Mannich reaction followed by chemo- and regiosele ...

a-Amino ketones and 1,2-amino alcohols are important structural motifs in organic chemistry, that can be observed in natural products, pharmaceutically and bioactive compounds. For these reasons, they constitute privileged targets for the development of ne ...

Reaction of N-arylsulfonyl allylamines with alkyl nitriles in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) and a catalytic amount of copper salt afforded homologated aziridines in 43-86% yield. A sequence involving addition of the in situ generated cyanom ...

A series of derivatives of the antimycobacterial natural product pyridomycin have been prepared with the C2 side chain attached to the macrocyclic core structure by a C-C single bond, in place of the synthetically more demanding enol ester double bond foun ...

We demonstrate a catalytic process for xylitol production based on the volatility and unique reactivity of diformylxylose (DFX), which can be produced at near theoretical yield from biomass and, contrary to xylose, can be easily purified by distillation. T ...

Nanomaterials and nanoparticles are nowadays used in a wide range of applications; from sunscreens, paint and food industry to catalytic processes, lighting, TV's and displays, their presence is percolating in our daily life. New applications rise every da ...

The development of new processes for the selective and sustainable transformation of abundant small molecules constitutes one of the major research areas in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. These molecules as CO2, CO, N2 and H2 are abundant reservoi ...

Metal hydride catalyzed hydrocarbonation reactions of alkenes are an efficient approach to construct new carbon-carbon bonds from readily available alkenes. However, the regioselectivity of hydrocarbonation remains challenging to be controlled. In nickel h ...

From their early successes in medicine, organometallic compounds continue to attract interest as potential chemotherapeutics to treat a range of diseases. Here, we show from recent literature selected largely from the last two years that organometallics of ...

Our reliance on fossil fuels, which is unsustainable due to dwindling reserves, has led to various environmental issues. Lignocellulosic biomass could serve as a renewable source of carbon and energy for the production of fuels and chemicals. While several ...

Organocatalysts promote a range of C-N bond forming reactions of amines with CO2. Herein, we review these reactions and attempt to identify the unifying features of the catalysts that allows them to promote a multitude of seemingly unrelated reactions. Ana ...
