In this study, the kinetics of gas hydrate formation in the presence of tetra-n-butyl ammonium fluoride (TBAF) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide surface active ingredient (CTAB) with zinc nano oxide (ZnO) are investigated and the most important kinetic parameters of hydrate formation such as their induction time and storage capacity were measured. The kinetic experiments were carried out in ...

The trichlorophenyl,- dichlorodiphenyl,- and chlorotriphenylgermanes undergo Pd-catalyzed cross-couplings with aryl bromides and iodides in the presence of TBAF in toluene with addition of the measured amount of water. One chloride ligand on the Ge center allows efficient activation by fluoride to promote transfer of one, two, or three phenyl groups from the organogermane precursors.

A new type of dioxetane bearing a 3-(cyanomethyl)phenyl (1a), 3-(methoxycarbonylmethyl)phenyl (1b), 3-(benzoylmethyl)phenyl (1c), or 3-[cyano(methoxycarbonyl)methyl]phenyl group (1d) decomposed through an intermediary dioxetane bearing a benzylic carbanion to afford crimson to yellow light on treatment with TBAF in DMSO.

The reaction of ethyl 2-ethynylphenylcarbamate derivative with alkenes in the presence of a palladium(II) catalyst, copper dichloride and tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) produced 2-substituted 3-ethenylindoles during refluxing. The intramolecular cyclization reaction of ethyl 2-ethynylphenylcarbamates, which have an ethenyl part in the ethynyl group, was also used to produce carbazole deriva...

The synthesis of highly enantioenriched α-heterocyclic tertiary alcohols has been achieved via lithiation-borylation of a configurationally stable lithiated carbamate and heterocyclic pinacol boronic esters followed by oxidation. Protodeboronation of the α-heterocyclic tertiary boronic esters using TBAF·3H2O or CsF gave highly enantioenriched 1-pyridyl-1-arylethanes in high er.

The origins of the stereodivergence in the thioester oxy-Michael cyclization for the formation of 4-hydroxy2,6-cisor 2,6-trans-substituted tetrahydropyran rings under different conditions was investigated both computationally and experimentally. Synthetic studies showed that the 4-hydroxyl group was essential for stereodivergence. When the 4-hydroxyl group was present, TBAF-mediated conditions ...

Furostifoline, a furo[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid, was synthesized in 10% overall yield in four steps from 2-acetyl-3-bromofuran. The key step of this synthesis was the 2-substituted indole formation with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) from 2-(2-propenyl)-3-((2-ethoxycarbonylamino)phenylethynyl)furan, which was easily prepared from ethyl 2-ethynylphenylcarbamate with 3-bromo-2-(2-propenyl)fura...

A short and efficient synthesis of 2'-O-methoxyethylguanosine (8) is described. Central to this strategy is the development of a novel silicon-based protecting group (MDPSCl(2), 2) used to protect the 3',5'-hydroxyl groups of the ribose. Silylation of guanosine with 2 proceeded with excellent regioselectivity and in 79% yield. Alkylation of the 2'-hydroxyl group of 6 proceeded with methoxyethyl...
