Resumo:
Norbornadiene and 1,2-bismethoxycarbonylcyclobutadiene furnish a novel heptacyclic system 3(whose X-ray crystal structure has been determined)and an annulated pterodactylane derivative 4 in a single step.
Resumo:
Thermal activation of gamma,delta-unsaturated ketones (1, 9 and 12) in the presence of a catalytic amount of propionic acid causes a rearrangement to give new gamma,delta-unsaturated ketones (2, 10 and 14) via an intramolecular ene reaction followed by a retro-ene reaction.
Resumo:
Small gold clusters [mean diameter (d)[less, similar] 1.4 nm], unlike larger clusters, show a higher Au(4f) binding energy relative to the bulk value and the presence of a conductance gap in tunnelling measurements, just as the molecular cluster compound, Au55(PPh3)12Cl6; small platinum clusters show similar nonmetallic features.
Resumo:
Cholic acid-based chiral acrylate 5 yields a Diels-Alder adduct with cyclopent
Resumo:
A one step stereoselective assembly of novel macrocyclic cyclophane hosts 4a and b from readily available cis,syn,cis-triquinane dione and 4,4'-dianilinoalkanes is described.
Resumo:
In the presence of a catalytic amount of water, 1,5-dienes undergo novel and unusual oxidation with potassium permanganate�copper sulfate in dichloromethane to give substituted butanolides in good yields under very mild conditions.
Resumo:
The easily constructed bile acid-based semi-rigid molecular tweezer 2 binds guest 8 in chloroform with an association constant of 83 dm(3) mol(-1).
Resumo:
Preparation of the key intermediates, 11 and 21, required for the synthesis of (+/-)-allo-cedrol (khusiol) is reported by a novel methodology involving the substitution at the bridgehead position of 1-methoxybicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en-2-one derivatives
Resumo:
The total synthesis of the unusual sesquiterpene (+/-)-myltayl-4(12)-ene 3 starting from the readily available cyclogeraniol 5 and the single-crystal X-ray structure of the 4-nitrobenzoate 12 of the noralcohol 11 are described.
Resumo:
The first stereoselective total synthesis of the natural sesquiterpenes 4 and 5, having the tricyclo[6.2.1.0(1,5)]undecane skeleton with a bridgehead methyl group, is reported via the intermediate 9, which was obtained by the acid catalysed rearrangement of the alcohols 7 and 8.
Resumo:
Evidence is presented for the strong interaction of nitrogen and oxygen with buckminsterfullerene.
Resumo:
A four step cyclopentaannulation methodology starting from allyl alcohols using 5-exo-trig radical cyclisation as the key reaction, and its application to the total synthesis of 4-epibakkenolide is described.
Resumo:
Eight new vesicle-forming dimeric surfactants are synthesized: the polar headgroup separation in such dimeric amphiphiles strongly influences their vesicular thermotropic phase-transition behaviour.
