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 ...

Hydro-mechanical analysis of volcanic ash slopes during rainfall

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, John Eichenberger, Chao Li

Rainfall-induced landslides in volcanic ashes represent a major natural hazard in many regions around the world. Due to their loose structure, volcanic ash slopes are prone to rainfall-induced landslides. The paper presents a continuum modelling approach f ...

Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand Enabled Nickel(0)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Three-Component Couplings as Direct Access to Silylated Indanols

Nicolai Cramer, Joachim Sven Ernst Ahlin

An enantioselective nickel(0)-catalyzed reductive three-component coupling between aromatic aldehydes, norbornenes, and silanes affords directly silyl-protected indanol derivatives. A new bulky chiral C-2-symmetric NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) ligand ...

Nickel-catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Alkenes and Transition-Metal-Free Intermolecular α-C-H Amination of Ethers

Ivan Buslov

Transition-metal-catalyzed hydrosilylation of olefins is one of the most important methods for the preparation of organosilicon compounds, which have broad applications in both synthetic and material chemistry. For decades, precious metals, principally pla ...

Copper-Catalyzed Intermolecular Carboetherification of Unactivated Alkenes by Alkyl Nitriles and Alcohols

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Claire Chatalova Sazepin

A three-component carboetherification of unactivated alkenes has been developed allowing the rapid building of complexity from simple starting materials. A wide range of a-substituted styrenes underwent smooth reactions with unactivated alkyl nitriles and ...

Synthesis of Functionalized Epoxides by Copper-Catalyzed Alkylative Epoxidation of Allylic Alcohols with Alkyl Nitriles

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Ala Bunescu

A copper-catalyzed oxyalkylation of allylic alcohols using nonactivated alkyl nitriles as reaction partners was developed. A sequence involving generation of an alkyl nitrile radical followed by its addition to a double bond and a copper-mediated formation ...

Copper-Catalyzed Cyanomethylation of Allylic Alcohols with Concomitant 1,2-Aryl Migration: Efficient Synthesis of Functionalized Ketones Containing an α-Quaternary Center

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Ala Bunescu

A copper-catalyzed alkylation of allylic alcohols by alkyl nitriles with concomitant 1,2-aryl migration was developed. Formation of the alkyl nitrile radical was followed by its intermolecular addition to alkenes and the migration of a vicinal aryl group w ...

TADDOL-based phosphorus(III)-ligands in enantioselective Pd(0)-catalysed C-H functionalisations

Nicolai Cramer, Julia Pedroni

Monodentate TADDOL-derived phosphoramidites and phosphonites are versatile chiral ligands for enantio-selective Pd(0)-catalysed C-H functionalisations. They enable highly selective cyclisations to access a wide range of chiral carbo-and heterocycles. The h ...

Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Ligands Enable a Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Access to Hydroxychromanes and Phthalides

Nicolai Cramer, Baihua Ye

The demand for efficient chiral cyclopentadienyl ligands (Cp-x) has increased significantly in recent years, partly because Cp*Rh(III) species have been developed as powerful catalysts for directed C-H functionalization reactions. However, a lack of suitab ...
