Heteroaromatics, including pyridines and indoles, play a prominent role in pharmaceutical chemistry. A new method for pyridine construction has recently been developed (Chem. Commun. 2006, 1313. DOI: 10.1039/b515901f) by Alexander…
There are several strategies now available for the catalytic enantioselective construction of oxygenated and aminated stereogenic centers. Catalytic processes for the enantioselective construction of alkylated stereogenic centers are just starting…
As new drug entities must be usually be prepared as single enantiomers, and as many contain one or more heterocyclic orcarbocyclic rings, there is an increased emphasis on the development…
Matthew J. Formula of 6-Bromo-2-oxaspiroheptane Pelc and Armen Zakarian from Florida State University have reported on the synthesis of A,G-spiroimine (1) of pinnatoxins (Tetrahedron Lett. 2006, 47, 7519. Sodium difluoromethanesulfinate…
The group of John A. Porco, Jr. and Scott E. Schaus from Boston University has reported on the synthesis of aryl ether C-glycoside derivatives 3 via Pd(0)-mediated allylic substitution of…
Two of the most common methods for homologating an aryl halide are the Heck reaction (1 -> 3) and the Suzuki reaction (4 -> 6). Shriniwas D. Samant of the…
Suzuki couplings using a microencapsulated palladium catalyst (Pd EnCat) under microwave heating were investigated by the group of Steven V. PMID:34856019 Ley at the University of Cambridge (Chem. 1450752-97-2 Purity…
Carsten Bolm and Belén Rodríguez from the University of Aachen investigated thermal effects in the (S)-proline-catalyzed Mannich reaction (J. Org. Chem. 2006, 71, 2888. (R)-2-Methylazetidine hydrochloride structure DOI: 10.1021/jo060064d). By…
Chi-Ming Che and co-workers from the University of Hong Kong have reported on the intra- and intermolecular hydroamination of unactivated alkenes (Org. Lett. 2006, 8, ASAP. DOI: 10.1021/ol060719x). In a…
Hartmut Schirok from Bayer HealthCare, Germany, has reported on a short and flexible synthesis of 1,3-substituted 7-azaindoles 2 starting from oxiranes 1 (J. PMID:23724934 Org. Chem. 2006, 71, 5538.DOI: 10.1021/jo060512h).…
