New Strategies for the Functionalization of Alkenes Exploiting Tethering Chemistry and Ring Strain

Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel

Amino alcohols, cyclopropanes and nitriles are privileged structural motifs found in the scaffold of natural products and bioactive compounds. In addition, they are versatile building blocks in organic chemistry. The development of new and increasingly eff ...

Nanodiamond Relaxometry-Based Detection of Free-Radical Species When Produced in Chemical Reactions in Biologically Relevant Conditions

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Diamond magnetometry is a quantum sensing method involving detection of magnetic resonances with nanoscale resolution. For instance, T1 relaxation measurements, inspired by equivalent concepts in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), provide a signal that is e ...

Generation of hydroxyl radical during chlorination of hydroxyphenols and natural organic matter extracts

Urs von Gunten, Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

The generation of hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) during the chlorination of air saturated solutions of different hydroxyphenols (hydroquinone, resorcinol, catechol, gallic and tannic acids) at pH 7 has been determined by the formation of phenol (in ...

Detrimental vs. beneficial influence of ions during solar (SODIS) and photo-Fenton disinfection of E. coli in water: (Bi)carbonate, chloride, nitrate and nitrite effects

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis

In this work, we studied the effect of inorganic ions occurring in natural waters on E. coli inactivation by solar and photo-Fenton processes, two crucial methods for drinking water treatment in sunny or developing countries. HCO3-, Cl-, SO42-, NO3-, NO2- ...

UV-Irradiated 2-Keto-(1-C-13)Isocaproic Acid for High-Performance C-13 Hyperpolarized MR

Andrea Capozzi, Arthur César Pinon

Enhancing the sensitivity of magnetic resonance spectroscopy/imaging (MRS/MRI) by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) has expanded the scope of MRS applications to new fields of research. Most importantly, it has paved the way toward noninvasiv ...

Molecular-Level Transformation of Dissolved Organic Matter during Oxidation by Ozone and Hydroxyl Radical

Urs von Gunten

Ozonation of drinking and wastewater relies on ozone (O-3) and hydroxyl radical ((OH)-O-center dot) as oxidants. Both oxidants react with dissolved organic matter (DOM) and alter its composition, but the selectivity of the two oxidants and mechanisms of re ...

Remote C(sp(3))-H Arylation and Vinylation of N-Alkoxypyridinium Salts to delta-Aryl and delta-Vinyl Alcohols

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Xu Bao

The reaction of readily available and bench-stable N-alkoxypyridinium salts with arylboronic and vinylboronic acids afforded delta-aryl and delta-vinyl alcohols, respectively, in the presence of fac-Ir(ppy)(3) and Cu(OTf)(2) dual catalysts. The reaction ta ...

Copper-Catalyzed 1,2-Methoxy Methoxycarbonylation of Alkenes with Methyl Formate

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Alexandre Julien Florent Leclair, Balázs Budai

Reported here is a copper-catalyzed 1,2-methoxy methoxycarbonylation of alkenes by an unprecedented use of methyl formate as a source of both the methoxy and the methoxycarbonyl groups. This reaction transforms styrene and its derivatives into value-added ...

Photoredox-Catalyzed Decarboxylation for the Transfer of Alkynes and Nitriles Using Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Franck Le Vaillant

Aliphatic alkynes and nitriles are privileged motifs in organic chemistry. Therefore, alkynes and nitriles have played a central role for the exploration and development of novel strategies to forge C-C bonds in efficient manner. They are broadly used as v ...

Z-Selective Synthesis of Vinyl Boronates through Fe-Catalyzed Alkyl Radical Addition

Xile Hu, Guido Barzanò, Alexis Baptiste Cheseaux

Z-Selective synthesis of vinyl boronates is challenging. This work describes Fe-catalyzed addition of alkyl radicals, formed by the corresponding alkyl halides, to ethynyl ethynylboronic acid pinacol ester that gives rise to Z-vinyl boronates in high stere ...

Alkynylation of radicals: spotlight on the "Third Way" to transfer triple bonds

Jérôme Waser, Franck Le Vaillant

The alkynylation of radical intermediates has been known since a long time, but had not been broadly applied in synthetic chemistry, in contrast to the alkynylation of either electrophiles or nucleophiles. In the last decade however, it has been intensivel ...
