Low-valent dialkoxytitanium(<scp>ii</scp>): a useful tool for the synthesis of functionalized seven-membered ring compounds

Stereoselective synthesis of three-membered ring compounds via ylide routes

Three types of small ring compounds (epoxides, aziridines and cyclopropanes) can be synthesized stereoselectively via ylide route. Among them, the stereochemistry of vinyloxiranes, vinylaziridines, cyclopropylesters, amides and ketones can be tuned by the choice of reaction conditions and ylides with varying heteroatoms and ligands. Optically active epoxides and acetylenylaziridines can be prep...

Steric effects on the Singlet–Triplet Energy Gaps of Seven Membered Ring silylenes, R2C6H6Si

With the aim of recognizing the steric effects on the silylenic R2C6H6Si structures, DFT calculationsare carried out on 8 structures of R2C6H6Si (where R is hydrogen (H), methyl (Me), isopropyl (i-pro),and tert-butyl (tert-Bu)). These species are at either triplet (t) or singlet (s) states. Singlet–tripletenergy separations ( Me (20.32) > t-Bu (15.92).all singlet states of R2C6H6Si, are more st...

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

2-Phenoxyethanol derived diselenide and related compounds; synthesis of a seven-membered seleninate ester.

Syntheses of several diorganodiselenides and, in particular, a seven-membered cyclic seleninate ester derived from 2-phenoxyethanol are described. The seleninate ester was obtained from allyl (2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl) selenide through a series of oxidation and [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement steps. The ester exhibits good GPx-like activity in the coupled reductase assay.

RhI-catalyzed C-C bond activation: seven-membered ring synthesis by a [6+1] carbonylative ring-expansion reaction of allenylcyclobutanes.
