Well compatible: The trifluoromethylations and perfluoroalkylations of aryl iodides and some aryl bromides with trifluoromethyl and perfluoroalkylcopper(I) phenanthroline complexes occur with broad scope at 25–50 °C (see scheme). The trifluoromethyl complex is prepared from inexpensive reagents and can be used in situ or isolated. The reactions tolerate a range of substituents and also occur with heteroaromatic systems. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Support

Lanthanum trifluoromethanesulfonate is an effective single-component catalyst for synthesizing a variety of amides directly from esters and amines under mild conditions. Highly selective amidation of esters and amines, as well as catalyst-controlled amidation of esters, demonstrated the effectiveness of the catalyst system.

Allseits verträglich: Mit den Kupfer(I)-Phenanthrolin-Komplexen 1 und 2 wurden Trifluormethylierungen bzw. Perfluoralkylierungen von Aryliodiden und -bromiden bei nur 25–50 °C ausgeführt (siehe Schema). Der Komplex 1 wurde aus preiswerten Reagentien erzeugt und kann in situ oder in isolierter Form eingesetzt werden. Die Reaktion verträgt eine Reihe von Substituenten und gelingt auch mit Heteroarenen.

Direct catalytic asymmetric Mannich-type reaction of a trichloromethyl ketone as a propionate equivalent donor is described. A new lanthanum aryloxide−iPr-pybox + lithium aryloxide combined catalyst was the most effective, promoting the reaction of N-2-thiophenesulfonyl imines with the trichloromethyl ketone. syn-Mannich adducts were obtained from various aryl, heteroaryl, alkenyl, and alkyl imines in >99−72% yield, syn/anti of >30:1−8:1, and 98−92% ee (from a propionate equivalent donor) using

Chemical transformers! Catalytic nucleophilic activation of trichloromethyl ketones allows applications in intermolecular carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions. Mannich adducts such as azetidines can be obtained from the primary products in high yield and syn selectivity. PG=protecting group.

Dynamic Duo: A Lewis basic bidentate phosphine oxide was effective for activating and modulating the properties of Brønsted basic lanthanum aryl oxides. The Lewis base 1/lanthanum aryl oxide system was suitable for anti-selective Mannich-type reactions of trichloromethyl ketones (see scheme), affording unique building blocks for azetidine-2-carboxylic acids as well as β-amino acids. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”. Such documents are p

The first catalytic enantioselective decarboxylative Mannich-type reaction of N-unprotected ketimines is reported, directly providing N-unprotected 3-tetrasubstituted 3-aminooxindoles in high yield and ee without protection/deprotection steps. The utility of this reaction is demonstrated in the short step synthesis of (+)-AG-041R.

Although BINOL-derived phosphoric acids are among the most widely used chiral Brønsted acid organocatalysts, their structures are mostly limited to 3,3'-disubstituted ones and simple 3-mono-substituted ones without any polar functionalities on the 3-substituent have not been used in highly enantioselective reactions. This work reports such 3-mono-substituted analogues as effective organocatalysts in direct highly enantioselective Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation of N-unprotected α-ketiminoester. T

Direct catalytic C-C bond-forming addition to N-unprotected ketimines is an efficient and straightforward method of synthesizing N-unprotected tetrasubstituted amines that eliminates prior protection/deprotection steps and allows facile transformation of the products. Despite its advantages, however, N-unprotected ketimines have difficulties in C-C bond-forming reactions, and only a limited number of reactions and substrates are reported compared with their N-protected counterparts. Herein we re

<i>N</i>-Unprotected ketimines are useful substrates and intermediates for synthesizing valuable nitrogen-containing compounds, but their potential applicability is limited by the available synthetic methods. To address this issue, we report a scandium(III) triflate catalyzed direct synthesis of <i>N</i>-unprotected ketimines. Using commercially available reagents and Lewis acid catalysts, ketones were directly transformed into the corresponding <i>N</i>-unprotected ketimines in high yields with

Double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR) is a participant in the cellular antiviral response and phosphorylates the alpha-subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2alpha (eIF-2alpha) to block protein synthesis. Treatment of human osteosarcoma cell line MG63 cells with a serine and threonine protein phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid, at the concentration of 100 nM, but not at 20 nM, induced apoptosis. To investigate the functional relationship between phosphatases and apopt

Surveillance for the HN region by using NBI endoscopy increase the detection rate of early HNSCC in patients with ESCC, and led to decrease serious events related to advanced metachronous HNSCC.

Abstract Digitalization of information on organic reactions is essential for developing next-generation organic syntheses with artificial intelligence and machine-learning (ML) methods. In this regard, reliable information on functional group compatibility and chemoselectivity is critical for understanding the applicability of the reactions. Herein, we report the digitalization of organic reactions using a functional group evaluation (FGE) kit that allows for accurate and rapid assessment of inf

Hydrazinolysis of unactivated amide bonds is significantly accelerated by the addition of ammonium salts. The reactions proceed at 50-70 °C to give amines with broad substrate scope that outperforms existing amide bond cleavage reactions. Application to peptide and amino sugar derivatives is also demonstrated.
