A framework for kinetic modelling and evaluation of the reaction intensification O 2 -dependent enzyme catalyzed reactions is built from measurements consumption rates initially dissolved in homogeneous liquid phase.

We present a convenient and efficient deoxygention method for the syntheses of disulfides thioethers. The reaction involves an iodide-catalyzed reduction methyl sulfinates or sulfoxides, respectively, employing formic acid...

[reaction: see text] An enantioselective gram-scale synthesis of a key dihydroindolizine intermediate for the preparation of myrmicarin alkaloids is described. Key transformations in this convergent approach include a stereospecific palladium-catalyzed N-vinylation of a pyrrole with a vinyl triflate, a copper-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate reduction of a beta-pyrrolyl enoate, and a regios...

Submitted: Jul 13, 2013; Accepted: Aug 26, 2013; Published: Aug 29, 2013 Abstract: Two new arylene diamines compounds have been synthesized via palladium-catalyzed reaction of 1,4-phenylenediamine with two aromatic dibromides. This one-pot reaction was based on using the catalyzed system resulting from Pd / BINAP, Pd / di-t-butylphosphinobiphenyl, Pd / P(t-Bu) , Pd / 1,3-bis(2,63 diisopropylphe...

Platinum dichloride-catalyzed hydroxy- or alkoxycyclization of cyclohexadienynes gives indenol derivatives, whereas hydroxy- or alkoxycyclization of cycloheptadienynes produces azulenol derivatives. The cyclization reaction proceeds via a cyclopropyl platinacarbene intermediate and allows for the direct stereocontrol of three contiguous stereogenic centers of the fused bicyclic skeletons. The t...

Indium(III) halides catalyze efficiently the intramolecular hydroarylation (IMHA) of aryl propargyl ethers. The reaction proceeds regioselectively with terminal and internal alkynes bearing electron-rich and electron-deficient substituents in the benzenes and alkynes affording only the 6-endo dig cyclization product. Additionally, a sequential indium-catalyzed IMHA and palladium-catalyzed Sonog...

NiCl2(PPh3)2-catalyzed alkylative olefinations of trithioorthoesters and te tra th ioortho ­ carbonates give the corresponding substituted alkenes. A liphatic C -S bonds in these sub­ strates can be activated in the nickel-catalyzed cross coupling reaction leading to ca rb o n carbon bond form ation. This reaction can be considered as using trithioorthoesters and te tra ­ th ioorthocarbonate as...

The hydratase-aldolase-catalyzed conversion of trans-o-hydroxybenzylidenepyruvate to salicylaldehyde and pyruvate is an intermediate reaction in the conversion of naphthalene to salicylate by bacteria. Here, a variety of aromatic aldehydes and some nonaromatic aldehydes together with pyruvate have been shown to be substrates for aldol condensations catalyzed by this enzyme in extracts of the re...

The mechanism of the proline-catalyzed aldol reaction has stimulated considerable debate, and despite limited experimental data, at least five different mechanisms have been proposed. Complementary to recent theoretical studies we have initiated an experimental program with the goal of clarifying some of the basic mechanistic questions concerning the proline-catalyzed aldol reaction. Here we su...
