The title chalcone derivative, C13H10O2, adopts an E conformation about the C=C double bond. The mol-ecule is composed of a furanyl and a phenyl ring, bridged by an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl system, which are inclined to one another by 24.07 (7)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the carbonyl O atom acting as a trifurcated acceptor and C-H⋯π inter-a...

Introduction Conclusions References

During the last decade, gold-catalyzed reactions have become a tour de force in organic synthesis. Recently, the gold-, Brønsted acid- or Lewis acid-catalyzed oxygen transfer from carbonyl to carbon-carbon triple bond, the so-called alkyne-carbonyl metathesis, has attracted much attention because this atom economical transformation generates α,β-unsaturated carbonyl derivatives which are of gre...

Abstract The asymmetric Rh‐catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds was originally developed by Mikami and co‐workers but gives only moderate enantiomeric excesses. In order to understand the factors controlling enantioselectivity propose novel ligands for this reaction, we have used computational experimental methods study with different bidentate ligands. analysis C−...

[reaction: see text] A novel type of photo-protecting group for carbonyl compounds is described. The protecting group is readily accessed in one step from commercially available material. Installation of the protecting group upon the carbonyl compounds is achieved in excellent yields. The carbonyl compounds in their protected form are remarkably stable under various conditions and can be releas...

It was found that cesium carbonate has a unique catalytic ability on the reaction of carbonyl compounds with diphenyl diselenide to give the corresponding alpha-phenylseleno carbonyl compounds in moderate to good yields. Similarly, the alpha-phenylthiolation of carbonyl compounds with diphenyl disulfide was promoted by the cesium carbonate catalyst.

ammonium monovanadate (nh4vo3) has been devoted as an efficient, commercially available, eco-friendly and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes (bims), oxindole derivatives and also michael adducts of indoles at 50 °c under solvent-free conditions. the reusability of this solid acid catalyst in addition with its selectivity has also been examined.

hexamethylenetetramine-bromine on wet alumina rapidly regenerates carbonyl compounds from their corresponding semicarbazone using microwave under solventless system.
