the use of methanesulfonic acid as a brønsted acid for direct ortho-acylation of phenols and naphthols proves to be a convenient, more general and direct route to various hydroxyaryl ketones. the route is regioselective, leading to ortho c-acylated products in satisfactory to high yields in most cases. the solvent free reactions described below exhibited environmentally benign in terms of faste...

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of 1,1-diarylalkanes via the Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation reaction of electron-rich arenes with cinnamic acid ester derivatives or chalcones is reported. Iron triflate has been found to be the best catalyst for the Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation reaction with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. This reaction afforded β,β-diaryl carbonyl compound...

We show that Friedel charge oscillation near an interface opens a gap at the Fermi energy for electrons with wave vectors perpendicular to the interface. If the Friedel gaps on two sides of the interface are different, a nonequilibrium effect—shifting of these gaps under bias—leads to asymmetric transport upon reversing the bias polarity. The predicted transport asymmetry is revealed by scannin...

We study how well-known effects of the long-ranged Friedel oscillations are affected by strong electronic correlations. We first show that their range and amplitude are significantly suppressed in strongly renormalized Fermi liquids. We then investigate the interplay of elastic and inelastic scattering in the presence of these oscillations. In the singular case of two-dimensional systems, we sh...

The BF3.OEt2-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts propargylation of aromatic compounds with O-propargyl trichloroacetimidates is highly efficient and affords 1,3-diarylpropyne derivatives in good yields.

A kinetic study of DNA-based catalytic enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation and Michael addition reactions showed that DNA affects the rate of these reactions significantly. Whereas in the presence of DNA, a large acceleration was found for the Friedel-Crafts alkylation and a modest acceleration in the Michael addition of dimethyl malonate, a deceleration was observed when using nitrometh...

Tandem hydrodechlorination/Friedel–Crafts alkylation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is achieved using silylium ion catalysts to prepare new styrenic copolymers polyethylene.

Inelastic interactions of quantum systems with the environment usually wash coherent effects out. In case Friedel oscillations, presence disorder leads to a fast decay oscillat...
