selective transformation of 2-propargylthio-6-methyl-pyrimidin-4(1h)on e (2) to 3,5-dimethyl-7h-thiazolo [3,2-a] pyrimidin-7-one (3) is performed under the conditionof base catalysis . for elucidation of structure, palladium catalyzed cyclization reaction of (2) was carried out and the structures of the products were assigned (5) and (6). these compounds underwent isomerization to (3) and (4) r...

the catalytic cracking of a fuel oil over fluid catalytic cracking (fcc) catalyst has been investigated applying different additives. catalyst mixtures consisting of a equilibrium fcc catalyst (e-cat) blended with zsm-5, mcm-41 and mordenite additives were examined at the additive levels of 25 wt.%. the catalytic performance of the matrix was studied in a fixed bed micro-activity test unit (mat...

[reaction: see text] A study of the role of base in the isomerization of manganese-coordinated conjugated alkynyl carbonyls to the corresponding allenyl carbonyls is described. The use of phosphine additives indicates that manganese requires a ligand prior to isomerization with amine bases. A series of amine bases were also examined for their efficacy in this isomerization reaction revealing a ...

Incubation of synthetic 12-hydroxy-(3Z)-dodecenal (3ZHD) with tea chloroplasts revealed that 12-hydroxy-(2£)-dodecenal (2EHD) was the product of isomerization reaction of 3ZHD during the incubation. The isomerization was caused also by incubation of 3ZHD with the heat-inactivated chloroplasts. The isomerization activity was extracted with hot ethanol. These results indicate that the isomerizati...

Transformation of 3-propargylmercapto-6 methyl-1, 2,4-triazin- 5 (2H)- one (1; R=CH3) to 3,6- dimethyl-7H- thiazolo [3,2-b] [1, 2, 4] triazin -7- one (2) is performed under basic condition. The formation of (2) may be mainly due to the high reactivity of acetylenes towards nucleophiles and isomerization of the intermediate. 

The ground-breaking advances in catalytic olefin metathesis by Grubbs and others have revolutionized many aspects of organic synthesis, ensuring a high general level of interest in the key metal alkylidene catalysts. The mechanism of ruthenium-mediated olefin metathesis catalysed by first (1a) and second generation (1b) Grubbs complexes has been extensively studied both by experiment and by com...

A highly selective method for the synthesis of asymmetrically substituted carbocycles and heterocycles from unactivated aldehyde-olefin precursors has been achieved via enantioselective SOMO-catalysis. Addition of a catalytically generated enamine radical cation across a pendent olefin serves to establish a general asymmetric strategy toward the production of a wide range of formyl-substituted ...

Oxidative annulations for the synthesis of carbocycles were developed using a catalytic palladium(II) system. Indoles with pendant olefin tethers were oxidatively cyclized to form annulated products. Electron-rich aromatic systems were also investigated, culminating in the synthesis of benzofurans and dihydrobenzofurans by a similar protocol. These reactions were demonstrated to proceed by an i...

The cis<-->trans isomerization reaction has been carried out for 2-naphthol and its hydrogen (H) bonded clusters by infrared (IR) laser in the electronic excited state (S1) in supersonic jets. A specific isomer in the jet was pumped to the X-H stretching vibration in the S1 state, where X refers to C, O, or N atom, by using a stepwise UV-IR excitation, and the dispersed emission spectra of the ...
