چکیده

A three-step synthesis of pseudoephenamine suitable for preparing multigram amounts of both enantiomers of the auxiliary from the inexpensive starting material benzil is described. The sequence involves synthesis of the crystalline monomethylimine derivative of benzil, reduction of that substance with lithium aluminum hydride, and resolution of pseudoephenamine with mandelic acid.

Optical, Thermal and Structural Properties of CdS Quantum Dots Synthesized by A Simple Chemical Route

The present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of CdS nanoparticles with good thermal stability and optical properties by a novel and simple synthetic route. The nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method in a single reaction vessel under ambient conditions. The prepared CdS nanoparticles were compared with the bulk CdS. The Optical properties were determin...

A new facile route to synthesize thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidine derivatives

A new facile route for synthesis of 3- (aryl) -8, 9- di (alkyl) thieno [3,2-e] [1,2,4] triazolo pyrimidines derivative from the same starting material, 2- amino - 4,5 -di (alkyl) thiophene-3- carboxamide, has been developed through heterocyclization of the corresponding arylidene-hydrazino -5,6 -di (alkyl) thieno [2,3-d] pyrimidine under refluxing condition with acetic anhydride followed by air...

Pseudoephenamine: a practical chiral auxiliary for asymmetric synthesis.

Pseudoephedrine is widely employed as a chiral auxiliary in diastereoselective alkylation reactions and provides ready access to enantiomerically enriched carboxylic acids, aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols. Because pseudoephedrine can be transformed into methamphetamine and other illegal drug substances, many countries restrict or ban its sale and distribution, thus complicating its use in indu...
