Preparation ofα-Bromoketones Involving the Reaction of Enol Triethyl Borates with N-Bromosuccinimide

Theoretical Investigation of the Reaction Mechanism for a Type of N-heterocyclic Compound Involving Mono-N-aryl-3-aminodihydropyrrol

The kinetics of reaction between 4-methylaniline (1), dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (2) and formaldehyde (4) has been theoretically investigated to gain further insight into the reaction mechanism. The results of theoretical calculations were achieved using the ab initio method at the HF/6-311g (d, p) level of theory in gas phase. The mechanism of this reaction had 5 steps. Theoretical kineti...

Asymmetric lithiation-substitution of amines involving rearrangement of borates.

Asymmetric lithiation of substituted benzylamines, N-Boc-pyrrolidine, or N-Boc-indoline using Beak's methodology was followed by electrophilic quench with trialkylboranes. The resulting borate intermediates rearrange with concomitant C-N bond breakage to give, after oxidation, chiral secondary alcohols with high enantioselectivity.

Kinetics of enol formation from reaction of OH with propene.

Kinetics of enol generation from propene has been predicted in an effort to understand the presence of enols in flames. A potential energy surface for reaction of OH with propene was computed by CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ//B3LYP/cc-pVTZ calculations. Rate constants of different product channels and branching ratios were then calculated using the Master Equation formulation (J. Phys. Chem. A 2006, 110, 105...

Chemical modification of ribonucleic acid polymerase with N-bromosuccinimide.

The mechanism of specific interaction between a protein and a nucleic acid is thought to reside partially in the arrangement and types of amino acid present in the protein. Attempts have been made to assign specific roles in this interaction to certain amino acids, for example, tryptophan and tyrosine are thought to be involved in unwinding the double helix of DNA (Brun et al., 1975), and in se...
