Usage

General Description

Indan-1-yl methyl ether, also known as 1-Methoxyindane, is a chemical compound composed of an indane ring with a methyl group attached to the oxygen atom. It is often used as a solvent in various industrial processes and can also be found in some consumer products. This chemical is a colorless liquid with a sweet, floral-like odor and has low solubility in water. It is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics due to its pleasant scent and is also used as a precursor in the synthesis of other organic compounds. However, it is important to handle this chemical with caution and ensure proper safety measures are in place due to its potential health hazards.

Functional-Group-Directed Diastereoselective Hydrogenation of Aromatic Compounds. 21

Diastereoselective liquid-phase hydrogenation of a series of monosubstituted indan substrates was studied on supported rhodium catalysts. Predominantly the cis-cis diastereomer, obtained by hydrogenation from the diastereoface opposite the substituent at the stereogenic center, and the cis-trans diastereomer, obtained by hydrogenation from the diastereoface on the same side as the substituent, were formed. The diastereoselectivity depends on the balance between steric repulsion and electronic attraction of the substituent with the surface of the catalyst. For alkoxy and carboxyl groups (acid, methyl ester, and amide), the steric repulsion dominated and the cis-cis diastereomer was obtained with moderately high selectivity. The diastereoselectivity obtained in the hydrogenation was influenced by the addition of bases to the reaction mixture. Addition of triethylamine caused a small increase in the selectivity to the cis-cis diastereomer in some substrates, whereas the addition of NaOH significantly increased the selectivity toward the cis-trans isomer in all substrates.

Intramolecular reactivity of functionalized arylcarbenes: 7-Alkenyloxy-1-indanylidenes

1,2-H shift is the only intramolecular reaction of 7-(1-propenyloxy)-1-indanylidenes (8) whereas 7-(2-propenyloxy)-1-indanylidene (13) and 7-(2-butenyloxy)-1-indanylidenes (19) undergo addition to the side-chain C=C bond and 1,2-H shifts competitively. Owing to the small RCR bond angle of 1-indanylidenes, the intramolecular chemistry is dominated by the singlet state even if the carbenes are generated by triplet-sensitized photolysis (k(TS) > k(T)).

Chemoselective and direct functionalization of methyl benzyl ethers and unsymmetrical dibenzyl ethers by using iron trichloride

Methyl and benzyl ethers are widely utilized as protected alcohols due to their chemical stability, such as the low reactivity of the methoxy and benzyloxy groups as leaving groups under nucleophilic conditions. We have established the direct azidation of chemically stable methyl and benzyl ethers derived from secondary and tertiary benzyl alcohols. The present azidation chemoselectively proceeds at the secondary or tertiary benzylic positions of methyl benzyl ethers or unsymmetrical dibenzyl ethers and is also applicable to direct allylation, alkynylation, and cyanation reactions, as well as the azidation. The present methodologies provide not only a novel chemoselectivity but also the advantage of shortened synthetic steps, due to the direct process without the deprotection of the methyl and benzyl ethers. Ethers exchanged: Methyl and benzyl ethers are chemically stable and generally tolerant under nucleophilic substitution conditions. Iron-catalyzed direct functionalizations (e.g., azidation, allylation, alkynylation, and cyanation) of methyl and benzyl ethers derived from secondary and tertiary benzyl alcohols were established with excellent regioselectivities (see scheme; PG: protecting group; Bn: benzyl; Nu: nucleophile; TMS: trimethylsilyl).

Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of alkanes with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and peracetic acid

The ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of alkanes with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and peracetic acid gives the corresponding ketones and alcohols highly efficiently at room temperature. The former catalytic system, RuCl2(PPh3)3-t-BuOOH, is preferable to the oxidation of alkylated arenes to give aryl ketones. The latter system, Ru/C-CH3CO3H, is suitable especially for the synthesis of ketones and alcohols from alkanes. The ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of cyclohexane with CH3CO3H in trifluoroacetic acid/CH2Cl2 at room temperature gave cyclohexyl trifluoroacetate and cyclohexanone with 90% conversion and 90% selectivity (85:15). The mechanistic study indicates that these catalytic oxidations of hydrocarbons involve oxo-ruthenium species as key intermediates.
