Aza-Michael addition of amines to activated alkenes catalyzed by Silica supported perchloric acid under a solvent-free condition

An efficient aza-Michael addition of amines to a series of ,-unsaturated ketones, carboxylic esters, nitriles and chalcones has been carried out using perchloric acid supported over silica gel (HClO4-SiO2) at room temperature in high yields under solvent-free reaction conditions.

Odorless Preparation Of Thioglycosides And Thio Michael Adducts Of Carbohydrate Derivatives

A generalized, odorless, one-pot methodology has been developed for the preparation of 1,2-trans-thioglycosides and thio-Michael addition products of carbohydrate derivatives through triphenyl phosphine mediated cleavage of disulfides and reaction of the thiolate formed in situ with glycosyl bromides and glycosyl conjugated alkenes.
