Ferrocene derived P,S-heterodonor ligands were effectively used in AgOAc catalyzed asymmetric cycloaddition of azomethine ylides. The roles of planar chirality and electronic properties of the phosphorous substituents have been examined, and up to 93% ee was obtained. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction has become a powerful synthetic tool, providing a...

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 3-nitro-2(1H)-quinolones with ester-stabilized azomethine ylides derived from sarcosine ester and various aromatic aldehydes has been investigated. structure stereochemistry cycloadducts were studied in detail by X-ray NMR spectroscopy methods.

the catalytic highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective synthesis of a small library of spiropyrrolizidineoxindolesvia a four-component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethine ylides, derived from isatin, with electron-deficient dipolarophilewas described. the process occurs at room temperature in aqueous ethanol as a green solvent and in the presence of a bidendatebis(imine)–cu(...

This present mini-review covers recently published results on Cu(I) and Cu(II) complexes immobilized on polystyrene carriers, which are used as heterogeneous, eco-friendly reusable catalysts applied for carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen forming reactions. Recent advances and trends in this area are demonstrated in the examples of oxidative homocoupling of terminal alkynes, the synthesis of prop...

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between azomethine ylides and alkenes is efficiently catalysed by [{(S(a))-Binap-Au(tfa)}(2)] (Binap=2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl; tfa=trifluoroacetyl). Maleimides, 1,2-bis(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene, chalcone and nitrostyrene were suitable dipolarophiles even when using sterically hindered 1,3-dipole precursors. The results obtained in these transforma...

The functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via microwave-assisted grafting reactions enables efficient multidecoration in a single step. A novel water-soluble SWCNT platform was prepared via the simple 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides under dielectric heating. Thanks to a single grafting reaction the CNT surface binds in a 1 : 1 ratio an amino acidic β-cyclod...

The regioselective three-component condensation of azomethine ylides derived from isatins and α-amino acids with acrylamides or aroylacrylic acids as dipolarophiles has been realized through a one-pot 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition protocol. Decarboxylation of 2'-aroyl-2-oxo-1,1',2,2',5',6',7',7a'-octahydrospiro[indole-3,3'-pyrrolizine]-1'-carboxylic acids is accompanied by cyclative rearrangement w...

In the title compound, C(14)H(13)N(3)O(2)·H(2)O, the azomethine double bond adopts an E conformation and the N-N=C-C torsion angle is 178.37 (19)°. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridine rings is 5.58 (12)° and the C atom of the meth-oxy group is roughly coplanar with its attached ring [deviation = 0.157 (3) Å]. In the crystal, the components are linked by O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and C...
