In the RuCl2(p-cymene)/PPh3 catalysed regioselective allylic alkylation of monosubstituted allyl acetates with malonate anion, the selective substitution at the position originally substituted with acetate was observed.

A new and efficient approach to benzocycles from cyclopropene derivatives is described. Deprotection by organolithiums and subsequent ring-opening cyclization of the related 2-cyclopropenyl phenyl or benzyl acetates generated benzofurans and isochromenes in one pot.

Chiral ruthenium(II)-salen complexes [RuII(salen)(PPh3)2] catalyse asymmetric aziridination of alkenes with up to 83% ees, asymmetric amidation of silyl enol ethers with up to 97% ees, and allylic amidation of cholesteryl acetates with good regioselectivity.

Tandem rhodium-catalyzed oxidative allylation and annulation of acetanilides with allyl acetate to afford the corresponding indoles are described. In addition, the site-selective C2 allylation, crotylation and prenylation of indoles using allylic acetates under rhodium catalysis are reported.

This research study describes recent advances in understanding the effects of addition organic acids, such as acetic, lactic, citric and phytic on process plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) Ti using an alkaline bath. As developed over workpiece is central to determine particular morphological structural features growing oxide, focus then inter-relationships between electrolyte resultant regime...

Deprotection of phosphate, phosphate, and sulfite esters by silica chloride is described. Silica chloride is a mild, selective, and effective reagent for cleavage of benzyl and t-butyl esters of the above compounds.
