A simple, mild and practical procedure has been developed for the synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical ethers by using DMSO, TBAI in the presence of K2CO3. We extended the utility of  Potassium carbonate as an efficient base for the preparation of ethers. A wide range of alkyl aryl and dialkyl ethers are synthesized from treatment of aliphatic alcohols and phenols with various alkyl hali...

Homoallylic ketones combine arguably two of the most synthetically useful functional groups in organic chemistry and are, therefore, very valuable synthetic intermediates. General methods for the synthesis of these intermediates include the allylation of carbonyl compounds via p-allyl palladium(II) complexes, the 1,4-addition of vinylmetal nucleophiles onto a,bunsaturated compounds, and the Cla...

Benzyl ether protected polyhydroxylated alkene compounds containing allylic alcohol, ether or ester functionality undergo a stereospecific cyclisation reaction upon treatment with TFA-acetonitrile-toluene with inversion of configuration at the allylic position and loss of a benzyl ether to give tetrahydrofurans.

Thiol-ene and thiol-yne photomediated conjugations have received substantial attention in research practice. Herein is presented the photodisulfidation of alkenes based on radical-mediated 1:1 reaction a disulfide vinyl ether, which provides an additional route for formation types sulfides seen thiol-ene polymers. Although similar linkages are formed, this approach starting with disulfides expe...

During the last years, we have been involved in the development of a diversity-oriented synthetic strategy aimed at transforming simple, linear, and densely functionalized molecular platforms into collections of topologically diverse scaffolds incorporating biologically relevant structural motifs such as N- and O- heterocycles, multifunctionalized aromatic rings, fused macrocycles, etc. The str...

poly(vinyl acetate) is synthesized via solution polymerization, and then it is converted to poly(vinyl alcohol) by alkaline alcoholysis. the aim of the work study was to investigate statistically the  influence of reaction variables in vinyl acetate polymerization, the conversion of this monomer to polymer, degree of branching of acetyl group in poly(vinyl acetate), as well as the molecular wei...

Thermal rearrangement of propargyl naphthyl ethers produced naphthopyrans. In the presence of sodium methoxide, propargyl naphthyl ethers were converted easily to naphthofurans and naphthodifurans in good yields

in multi-step organic syntheses, the protection and deprotection of tetrahydropyranyl (thp) ethers is one of the most frequently used methods. over the years, different methods have been used from various catalytic systems for the protection of hydroxyl groups as thp ethers and their deprotection. herein we have reported that various alcohols and phenols have been efficiently converted to the c...
