Reaction of benzyl and ethyl allenoates with TMSX (X = I, Br, Cl) and with NH4SCN were investigated in MeCN, DMF, and in imidazolium ionic liquids [BMIM][NTf2] and [BMIM][PF6] as solvent, in the presence and absence of Selectfluor. Comparative product analysis studies demonstrate that the ability of Selectflour to promote oxidative/electrophilic dihalogenation/dithiocyanation with TMSX/NH4SCN (...

This inside cover picture illustrates how the developed saccharin-based electrophilic reagents can incorporate SCH2CF3 and SCH2CF2H motifs into electronically rich substrates such as indole or pyrrole under mild direct conditions. These reactions are favored by presence of trimethylsilyl chloride (TMSCl) exhibit high compatibility with water, enabling open-flask reactions. Moreover, they allow ...

The reactivity, cytotoxic studies and hydrolytic behaviour of diamine bis(phenolate) titanium complexes are reported. The reactions of [Ti((tBu2)O2NN')Cl]2(μ-O) (1) with LiO(I)Pr or HO(I)Pr in the presence of NEt3, aiming at the synthesis of the alkoxido derivative of 1 led to no reaction or to the synthesis of the monomeric complex [Ti((tBu2)O2NN')(O(i)Pr)2] (3), respectively. A small amount o...

The title molecules are sought in connection with various synthetic applications. The aliphatic fluorous alcohols Rfn CH2OH (Rfn = CF3(CF2) n-1; n = 11, 13, 15) are converted to the triflates Rfn CH2OTf (Tf2O, pyridine; 22-61%) and then to Rfn CH2I (NaI, acetone; 58-69%). Subsequent reactions with NaOCl/HCl give iodine(III) dichlorides Rfn CH2ICl2 (n = 11, 13; 33-81%), which slowly evolve Cl2. ...
