BACKGROUND Morita Baylis Hillman (MBH) reaction is used to introduce carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bond in a molecule. The major drawback of this reaction is the relatively low product yield and long reaction time. Though notable changes have been made to improve the reaction rate and yield of MBH adduct by various groups, a reliable synthetic procedure under ambient temperature in presenc...

The Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction of secondary N-alkyl acrylamides, discarded up to now from investigations the scope activated alkenes, was studied. Optimization conditions revealed that a balance must be found between activation MBH coupling and undesired competitive aldehyde Cannizzaro reaction. Using 3-Hydroxyquinuclidine (3-HQD) in 1:1 water-2-MeTHF mixture provides appropriate were...

A highly regio-, chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselective organocatalytic [4 + 1] annulation of 2-halo-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts catalyzed by commercially available, low cost quinidine for the preparation of synthetically unique and medicinally multi-functionalized isoxazoline N-oxides with three stereogenic centers including adjacent quaternary and tertiary ste...

Microfluidics is an attractive platform for chemical synthesis because it offers fast reaction times, reduced reagent usage, and the ability to integrate multiple functions on a single device. Digital Microfluidics (DMF) is particularly well-suited for microscale chemical synthesis, as it permits discretized sample handling, allowing for total process control. However, a limitation of DMF-based...

Neste artigo, um estudo sintético assistido por irradiação de micro-ondas para produzir 2-indolizina-carbonitrila e 2-indolizina-carboxilato de metila em bons a altos rendimentos (70 e 81%) em uma etapa a partir de adutos de Morita-Baylis-Hillman (AMBH) é apresentado. Estes compostos foram subsequentemente transformados em altos rendimentos (94-100%) em três derivados 2-indolizínicos. Os cinco ...
