Cu（I）/Diamine-catalyzed Aryl-alkyne Coupling Reactions

Arylalkynes are important building blocks for the synthesis of natural products,pharmaceuticals,and artificial molecular devices1.They are often synthesized via the Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling reactions between aryl halides and terminal alkynes2,3.Unfortunately,it remains difficult to apply the Sonogashira reaction to industrial scale and/or pharmaceutical synthesis,due to the high cost of Pd and the difficulty in removing the toxic Pd residues from the reaction products.Thus it is wor…     

Fluorous Synthesis of Biaryl-Substituted Proline Analogs by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition and Suzuki Coupling Reactions

A solution-phase synthesis of bicyclic prolines containing four points of diversity has been developed by a two-step synthesis involving 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of perfluoroalkylsulfonyl-protected hydroxybenzaldehydes followed by Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction of fluorous sulfonates with boronic acids. Both reactions are conducted under microwave irradiation and reaction mixtures are purified by solid-phase extractions without performing chromatography.     

Influence of the composition of perovskites based on SrMnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> on their catalytic properties in the oxidative coupling of methane

The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) in a periodic regime over the SrMnO₃ and its derivatives has been investigated. It has been established that partial replacement of the strontium ion by alkali metal ions leads to an increase in both catalytic activity and in selectivity with respect to higher hydrocarbons. Comparison of the results obtained in the present work with those obtained earlier for catalysts based on SrCoO₃ led to the conclusion that the Co-containing catalysts were preferable to the Mn-containing catalysts for carrying out oxidative coupling of methane in a periodic regime.__________Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimentalnaya Khimiya, Vol. 41, No. 1, pp. 30–34, January–February, 2005.     

Development of resin-to-resin transfer reactions (RRTR) using Sonogashira chemistry

Sonogashira chemistry can be used according to the ‘resin-to-resin transfer reaction’ (RRTR) concept. Two fragments, one containing the halide moiety and the second one incorporating the alkyne functionality, are anchored on different solid supports using allyl and/or Wang-type linkages. Treatment with Pd(0) cleaves the allyl-linked fragment(s) which subsequently undergo Sonogashira coupling under the same conditions.     

A novel arylation of arylacetic acid esters using tertiary arylamines and TiCl4

The reactions of arylacetic acid esters with tertiary arylamines in the presence of TiCl₄ give α-arylated products in 65-90% yields, as well as 10-20% yields of the corresponding benzidines.

Three-component coupling of alkynes, Baylis-Hillman adducts and sodium azide: a new synthesis of substituted triazoles

A three-component coupling was used to prepare a series of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles from the corresponding acetylated Baylis-Hillman adducts, sodium azide and terminal alkynes. This one-pot reaction further increases the efficacy of ‘Click’ synthesis and diversifies the preparation of multi-functional 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles.     

Spectroscopic study of solid-state photoreaction in organic crystal: Photopolymerization of dimethyl ester of α,α′-dicyano-p-phenylenediacrylic acid and diethyl ester of p-phenylenediacrylic acid

Raman spectroscopy has been used to study solid-state photopolymerization reactions in dimethyl ester of α,α′-dicyano-p-phenylenediacrylic acid (p-CPAMe) and diethyl ester of p-phenylenediacrylic acid (p-PDAEt). The reactants and products were characterized by infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Excitation and emission spectra suggest that in p-CPAMe exciton–phonon coupling is strong, but in the other monomer it is very weak. Raman phonon spectroscopic study reveal that in both the samples the reaction mechanism is homogeneous in the initial stages. However, in the later stages the reaction becomes heterogeneous in p-PDAEt. In p-CPAMe the lattice becomes disordered with the progress of polymerization and finally becomes amorphous whereas in p-PDAEt the lattice remains highly ordered. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Oxidative Coupling in a Series of Derivatives of 4a,9-Diaza-1,2,4a,9a-tetrahydrofluorene. 6. Reactions with Substituted 2-Aminoethanols

Oxidative coupling of derivatives of 4a,9-diaza-1,2,4a,9a-tetrahydro-9H-fluorene with 2-ethyl-, 2,2-dimethyl-, and 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylaminoethanol in the presence of MnO₂ led to the selective formation of the corresponding mono- and di(hydroxymethyl)quinonediimines, subsequent cyclization of which gave the products of 6,7-annelation. Coupling with 2,2-di(hydroxymethyl)aminoethanol gave the annelation products directly.     

Characterization of the organization in shear layers via the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition

Experiments are performed in an incompressible plane turbulent mixing layer, using various hot wire rake configurations. From these experiments, the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition is applied for kernels where the space-time correlation tensor is evaluated over different spatial meshes and velocity components configurations. The resulting decompositions are then discussed in terms of characterization of the organization of the flow for various scalar or vectorial approaches of the POD. An incrtial range law is evidenced. The instantaneous contribution of the first modes of the POD to the organization of the flow is analyzed. A dynamical behavior for the organization of the flow is observed from the correlation between the first two modes contribution.
