Art Id.1437-2096,E;2002,0,12,1954,1965,ftx,en;A30202ST.pdf. © Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York ISSN 0936-5214 Abstract: Two different synthetic reactions catalyzed by an iridium complex are discussed. The first is allylic alkylation and allylic amination. This reaction proceeds via a -allyl iridium intermediate. The selectivity strongly depends o...

Earthworm Is a Versatile and Sustainable Biocatalyst for Organic Synthesis

A crude extract of earthworms was used as an eco-friendly, environmentally benign, and easily accessible biocatalyst for various organic synthesis including the asymmetric direct aldol and Mannich reactions, Henry and Biginelli reactions, direct three-component aza-Diels-Alder reactions for the synthesis of isoquinuclidines, and domino reactions for the synthesis of coumarins. Most of these rea...

How organic agriculture contributes to sustainable development

Organic agriculture can contribute to meaningful socio-economic and ecologically sustainable development, especially in poorer countries. This is due on the one hand to the application of organic principles, which means efficient management of local resources (e.g. local seed varieties, manure, etc.) and therefore costeffectiveness. On the other hand, the market for organic products – at local ...

Organic Agriculture as an Opportunity for Sustainable Agricultural Development

Development of Sustainable Biocatalytic Reduction Processes for Organic Chemists

Among the different factors contributing to a good chemical manufacturing process, the process efficiency and specifically volume–time output in terms of reactor capacity and cycle time, respectively, have been given the largest weight – among the conversion costs, with material cost being the second [1]. Raw materials or intermediates with a higher oxidation state than the target products are ...
