Front Cover: A Green Approach: Vicinal Oxidative Electrochemical Alkene Difunctionalization (ChemElectroChem 5/2019)

Alkene 1,2‐Difunctionalization by Radical Alkenyl Migration

Transition-metal-free radical α-perfluoroalkylation with the accompanying vicinal β-alkenylation of unactivated alkenes is presented. These radical cascades proceed by means of 1,4- or 1,5-alkenyl migration by electron catalysis on readily accessed allylic alcohols. The reactions comprise a regioselective perfluoroalkyl radical addition with subsequent alkenyl migration and concomitant deproton...

A simple and efficient approach to realize difunctionalization of arylketones with malonate esters via electrochemical oxidation.

A facile difunctionalization of arylketones with malonate esters via electrochemical oxidation was achieved under mild conditions. A variety of difunctionalized products were obtained in good to excellent yields.

The integrated Rule Oriented Data Management System (iRODS) is a policy-driven data management system that is starting to be used by projects with large data volume requirements that require a highly available system. In this paper we describe an approach to provide a Highly Availability load-balanced iRODS System (HAIRS). We also describe the advantages and disadvantages of the approach and fu...

Hypervalent iodine mediated alkene difunctionalization of vinylphenols: diastereoselective synthesis of substituted indoles and indolizines.

A hypervalent iodine mediated alkene difunctionalization reaction of vinylphenols has been developed. The chemistry is applicable to a wide range of substitutions on both the alkene and nucleophile substrates, enabling the rapid synthesis of 3-substituted indoles and 2-substituted indolizines in good yields and high diastereoselectivities under metal-free conditions.
