Moderate to excellent entantio- and stereoselectivities (ee’s 54-100%) were observed in PLE catalyzed hydrolysis of (±)-ethyl 5-oxo-endo-tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6] deca-8-ene-2-carboxylate 5 and the structurally related open chain bicyclic structures (±)-ethyl 3-acetylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylates 7, 9 and (±)-ethyl 3-propanoylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylates 8, 10. A pronounced pref...

In this paper we give a description of all subsemigroups of the bicyclic monoid B. We show that there are essentially five different types of subsemigroups. One of them is the degenerate case, and the remaining four split in two groups of two, linked by the obvious anti-isomorphism of B. Each subsemigroup is characterized by a certain collection of parameters. Using our description, we determin...

This review describes advances in the literature since 2000 in the area of reactions of vinylsulfonium and vinylsulfoxonium salts, with a particular emphasis on stereoselective examples. Although the chemistry of vinylsulfonium salts was first explored back in the 1950s, and that of vinylsulfoxonium salts in the early 1970s, there has been renewed interest in these compounds since the turn of t...

A detailed gas-phase photochemical chamber box model, incorporating the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCMv3.1) degradation scheme for the model anthropogenic aromatic compound 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, has been used to simulate data measured during a series of aerosol chamber experiments in order to evaluate the mechanism under a variety of VOC/NOx conditions. The chamber model was used in the inter...

<p>After the preparation with few steps of original bicyclic osidic scaffold pyrimidino-pyranoside type, exploration reactivity pyranose part allowed us to carry out different procedures for opening 4,6-<em>O</em>-benzylidene.</p>

Bicyclic isoxazolines and isoxazoles are obtained in good yields by proceeding through a convenient one-pot, two-step procedure utilizing 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) as a dehydrating agent.

Allenynes having malonate-based tethers reacted with arylboronic acids in the presence of a rhodium(I) catalyst to sequentially form three carbon-carbon bonds, and arylated bicyclic skeletons were constructed in a stereoselective manner.

Let B(n, g) be the class of bicyclic graphs on n vertices with girth g. In this paper, the graphs in B(n, g) with the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius are characterized.
