甘氨酸衍生物C(sp3)―H官能团化反应在喹啉类化合物合成中的应用

The direct oxidative C(sp³)-H functionalization reaction has long been considered as one of the most efficient and straightforward synthetic protocol for the construction of C-C bonds. Recently, the synthesis of substituted quinolines via C(sp³)-H functionalization of glycine derivatives has gained widespread attention from the chemists. Recent progresses on the C(sp³)-H functionalization of glycine derivatives and their applications in the synthesis of substituted quinolines are described in this paper. The aims are to broaden students' vision and stimulate their interest in scientific research through the introduction of innovative scientific research.     

Novel biotransformation of pentacyclic triterpenoid acids by Nocardia sp. NRRL 5646

Six pentacyclic triterpene acids, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, betulinic acid, 23-hydroxybetulinic acid, glycyrrhetinic acid, and senegenin, were metabolized by the microbe Nocardia sp. NRRL 5646 to selectively furnish their corresponding 28-methyl esters. Notably, ursolic acid (1) was converted to oleanolic acid methyl ester (4) via two intermediates, oleanolic acid (2), and ursolic acid methyl ester (3), which are formed by participation of ‘retro-biosynthetic’ methyl migration from C-19 to C-20. Senegenin (11) was selectively converted to a nortriterpene methyl ester, senegenic acid methyl ester (12), via an unprecedented C-C bond cleavage. The stereochemical assignments of compounds 11 and 12 were made unambiguously for the first time using 2D NMR spectroscopy.

Sequence analysis of poly (ether sulfone) copolymers by 13C NMR

Random and block copolymers of poly (ether sulfone) (PES) and poly (ether ether sulfone) (PEES) were synthesized by the nucleophilic polycondensation of 4,4′‐dichlorodiphenyl sulfone (DCDPS) with 4,4′‐dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone (DHDPS) and hydroquinone (HQ). Chemical structures of these copolymers were characterized by ¹³C NMR. The monomer molar fraction, sequential distribution, and degree of randomness of the copolymers were determined through analyses of the resonances of quaternary carbons in the DCDPS unit. Experimental results show that the molar fractions of the comonomer determined by ¹³C NMR analyses are close to the charged values in the synthetic step. Moreover, these copolymers, which were prepared by different polymerization methods, revealed different number‐average sequential length and degree of randomness. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
