Synthesis of Chiral Pyrethroid Insecticides via Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions

Synthesis of Phosphorus Derivatives via Multicomponent Reactions

Stable derivatives of oxaphosphaphenanthrenes were prepared using multicomponent reactions of 3-bromo-2-naphthol, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate and trimethyl or triphenyl phosphite under microwave conditions with good yields. 

Synthesis of Chiral Fluorinated Hydrazines via Pd-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation.

An enantioselective hydrogenation of fluorinated hydrazones has been achieved by employing [Pd(R)-DTBM-SegPhos(OCOCF3)2] as the catalyst, providing a general and convenient method toward chiral fluorinated hydrazines. A broad substrate scope including β-aryl-, γ-aryl-, and alkyl-chain-substituted hydrazones worked efficiently in high yields and up to 94% of enantioselectivity. The reductive ami...

Synthesis of 2-fluoroalkylbenzimidazoles via copper(I)-catalyzed tandem reactions.

Preparation of 2-fluoroalkylbenzimidazoles from N-aryl trifluoroacetimidoyl (or bromodifluoroacetimidoyl) chlorides and primary amines has been achieved via copper(I)-catalyzed tandem reactions.
