Reactions on a Solid Surface. A Simple, Economical, and Efficient Acylation of Alcohols, Amines over Al2O3

Al2O3 brings about a rapid acylation of a range of alcohols and amines with acid chlorides and acid anhydrides, respectively. Amines are easily Boc- and Cbz-protected on reaction with Boc-anhydride and Cbz-Cl, respectively. The acylation of phenols is slow enough to allow chemoselective acylation of alcohols and amines in the presence of phenols.

DABCO-Catalysed Dimerisation of Some α,β-Unsaturated Esters

Acrylate esters readily undergo the Baylis-Hillman reaction with aldehydes in the presence of DABCO.In the absence of aldehydes it has now been established that esters with good leaving groups undergo self condensation (Michalel addition) to afford dimers in almost quantitative yield.
