Mono-Allylation of Gem-Diacetates with Allylsamarium Bromide

Our group have explored the reaction of allylsamarium bromide with a variety of substrates, such as N-(2-aminoalkyl)benzotriazoles1, imines2, nitriles3, diorgano diselenides4, disulfides5, isocyanates6 and nitroalkenes7. Here we wish to report the monoallylation of gem-diacetates with allylsamarium bromide. Gem-diacetates are stable in neutral and basic media, thus they are frequently used to protect aldehydes8. However, the presence of two leaving groups at the same carbon may make carbon …     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 1,2,4,6-Tetraphenyl-2-hydroxy-8-azabicycle[3,2,1]octane

1 INTRODUCTIONAtrope alkaloids, which exist in eggplant plants, such as atrope and scopolamine, are used as a series of important drugs in medical science [1,2]. The typical character of atrope alkaloid is that these compounds contain the main skeleton of 8-azabicycle[3,2,1]octane , which results in the very complicated synthetic routine[3]. During our research for the reaction of 1,3,5,7-tetraphenyl-4- nitro-1,7-heptadione with low-valent titanium reagent, we easily synthesized the title …     

Two New Compounds from Goniothalamus Cheliensis Hu

Goniothalamus cheliensis Hu (Annonaceace) is a small tree or shrub in Yunnan Province, southwest of China. Acetogenins, styryllactones and alkaloids1-3 from the genus were reported in the previous literature and many of them showed strong cytotoxic activities against a number of human cancer cell lines4. The titled plant has been the subject of our investigation due to the impressive cytotoxicity of its organic extract against mouse lymphocytic leukemia cells in preliminary pharmacological s…

Synthesis and Structure of E-2-(2,4,6-tri tert butylphenylphosphinyl)-2-〔N-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-N-(p-chrolophenyl)〕amino-1-(2,4,6-tri tert-butyl-phenyl)phosphacthylene

1　INTRODUCTIONItwaswellknown thatelementsofthesecondary and higherrow are in generaldifficulty to form multiplebondsin which apπ hybridized stateisinvolved〔1〕.Thus,simple compounds containing multiple phosphorus carbon bonds,such as methyl dynephosphine( HC≡P) 〔2 - 3〕 and methylenephosphine( H2 C=PH〔4〕,are notstableat room temperature.Three methods to stabilize compounds containing double ormultiple bond involving phosphorusatom in the pπ hybridized state are often used.The f…     

Site-specifically Hydrolytic Cleavage of Oxidized Insulin B Chain With Cu(II) Ion

Selectively chemical cleavage of peptides and proteins is one of the most important reactions in both chemical and biochemical processes. Over the past decade, the interaction of palladium(II) complexes with methionine, cysteine and histidine-containing peptides and proteins and the hydrolytic cleavage of the corresponding amide bond by Pd(II) complexes have been extensively studied1-13. However, reports concerning the directly selective hydrolysis of peptides and proteins with other simple …     

A New ent-Kaurane Diterpenoid from Isodon enanderianus

Isodon enanderianus (Hand. -Mazz.) H. W. Li, has been used in folk medicine as anti-inflammatory and detoxified agent1. The Isodon genus is known to be rich in ent-kaurane diterpenoids, a series of new ent-kaurane diterpenoids have been isolated from the dried leaves of I. enanderianus2-4. In order to find more biologically active substances, we have carefully investigated the chemical constituents of I. enanderianus collected in Shiping county of Yunnan province, and as a result, enanderi…     

Photochemical Reduction of Aromatic Imines by 2-Phenyl-N, N-dimethylbenzimidazoline

Reduction of C=N double bonds has been recognized as an important reaction both in organic chemistry and bio-chemistry1. Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine (HEH, one of NADH model compounds) has been reported as a reductive reagent for imines2. However, application of dihydropyridines as practical reducing reagents in organic synthesis is limited because of their instability3. Like NADH models, 2-phenyl-N, N-dimethylbenzimidazoline (PDMBI) is an efficient electron and hydrogen donor (Eox = 0…     

Retention Behaviors of Uronic Acid-containing Polysaccharides and Neutral Polysaccharides in HPGPC

The determination of molecular weights (Mw) of polysaccharides has served as an important process since the physical properties of the polysaccharides are closely related to their Mw and/or molecular weights distribution (MWD). For Mw and MWD determinations, high performance gel permeation chromatography (HPGPC) has gained wide acceptance as a preferred method due to its high sensitivity, speed and reproducibility. In chromatography, it is well known that the molecular weights are determ…     

New conversion of Friendlnder reaction of 3-amino-1H-benzo[f]chromene-2-carbonitriles with cyclohexanone

Two different skeletons of heterocyclic compounds,quinoline and quinazolinone analogs could be obtained by a novel one-pot synthesis from substituted 3-amino-1 H-benzo[f]chromene-2-carbonitrile derivatives and cyclohexanone in DMF in the catalyst of anhydrous zinc chloride under reflux.A plausible mechanism was proposed.
