Substituent Effects on the Enantioselective Hydrocyanation of Aryl Aldehydes

, p. 1541 - 1548 (1994)
A detailed study of the dipeptide catalysed enantioselective hydrocyanation of a series of O-substituted 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes has shown that adverse steric effects can occur leading to low enantiomeric excess (e.e.) values when the substituent is long and flexible.Similar hydrocyanation of several derivatives of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehydes have been shown to give very variable values of e.e.Hydrocyanation of 3,5-dimethoxy and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde consistently gave low values of e.e.

Improved protocols for Wittig reaction and palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling give expedient access to a series of unprecedented polyfunctionalized artificial-resveratrol derivatives. In the modified Wittig protocol, trimethylsilyl was used as a highly valuable protective group of the phenolic functions of starting aromatic materials. A clean O-alkylation of hydroxylated stilbenes with ethylene carbonate was also conducted. Thus, Wittig reaction followed by hydroxyethylation take place one-pot with only carbon dioxide as waste. Additionally, a palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling strategy was developed by using ferrocenyl phosphane ligands, and multi-functionalized hydroxylated stilbenes were obtained without the need of any protection/deprotection sequence. Up to six functional groups are introduced by these procedures, which limit the number of reactions steps, the waste toxicity, and the use of costly reagents.
Chromophoric photocrosslinking compound

, (2008/06/13)
A photoactive compound that is the reaction product of an alkenyl azlactone compound and a nucleophilic aromatic ketone is described. Mer units derived from this compound can be used, for example, to crosslink via a hydrogen abstracting mechanism acrylic polymers in which they are incorporated.
