Six examples of aluminum 5,6-dihydro-7,7-dimethylquinolin-8-olates, [{2-R1-7,7-Me2-8-R2C9H6N-8-O}AlR32]2 (R1 = R2 = H, R3 = Me C1; R1 = R2 = H, R3 = Et C2; R1 = R2 = H, R3 = i-Bu C3; R1 = Cl, R2 = H, R3 = Me C4; R1 = H, R2 = R3 = Me C5; R1 = Cl, R2 = R3 = Me C6), have been prepared by treating the corresponding pro-ligand (L1–L4) with either AlMe3, AlEt3 or Al(i-Bu)3. All complexes have been characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and in the case of C1 and C4 by single crystal X-ray diffraction; dimeric species are a feature of their molecular structures. In the presence of PhCH2OH (BnOH), C1–C6 displayed good control and efficiency for the ROP of ε-CL with almost 100% conversion achievable in 10 min at 90 °C; the chloro-substituted C4 and C6 notably exhibited the lowest activity of the series. However, in the absence of BnOH, C1 showed only low activity with 15% conversion achieved in 30 min forming a linear polymer capped with either a methyl or a L1 group. By contrast, when one or more equivalents of BnOH was employed in combination with C1, the resulting catalyst was not only more active but gave linear polymers capped with BnO end-groups. By using 1H and 27Al NMR spectroscopy to monitor solutions of C1, C1/BnOH and C1/BnOH/10 ε-CL over a range of temperatures, some support for a monomeric species being the active initiator at the operational temperature is presented.

The aluminium complexes {[κ2-N,O-(t-BuNCOPh)]AlMe2}2 (2), [κ2-N,O-(t-BuNCOPh)]2AlMe (3), and [κ2-N,O-(t-BuNCOPh)]3Al (4) were prepared through the protonolysis reaction between trimethylaluminium and one, two, or three equivalents, respectively, of N-tert-butylbenzamide. Complex 2 was also prepared via a salt metathesis reaction between K(t-BuNCOPh) and dimethylaluminium chloride. Complexes 2–4 were characterized using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the complexes corroborated ligand : metal stoichiometries and revealed that all the amidate ligands coordinate to the aluminium ion in a κ2 fashion. The Al–amidate complexes 2–4 were viable catalyst precursors for the Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley–Oppenauer reduction–oxidation manifold, successfully interconverting several classes of carbonyl and alcohol substrates.

(2S,3R,6R)-2-[(R)-1-Hydroxyallyl]-4,4-dimethoxy-6-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-3-ol was isolated in 18% after treating the glucose derived (5R,6S,7R)-5,6,7-tris[(triethylsilyl)oxy]nona-1,8-dien-4-one with (1S)-(+)-10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA). The one-pot formation of the title compound involved triethylsilyl (TES) removal, alkene isomerization, intramolecular conjugate addition and ketal formation. The compound was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry and IR spectroscopy. NMR spectroscopy was used to establish the product structure, including the conformation of its tetrahydropyran ring.

The N-alkylation reaction of N-benzoyl 5-(aminomethyl)tetrazole (5-AMT) with benzyl bromide was carried out in the presence of K2CO3 as a base. Two separable regioisomers were obtained, thus their purification led to determine the proportion of each of them, and their structures were attributed essentially based on 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy in addition to the elemental analysis and MS data. In order to confirm the results obtained at the synthesis level, a computational study was carried out by application of density functional theory (DFT) using the Becke three-parameter hybrid exchange functional and the Lee-Yang-Parr correlation functional (B3LYP).

The reaction of 5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2-phenylchroman-4-one with dibromoalkanes in acetone in the presence of potassium carbonate proceeds according to the Michael’s retro-reaction O-alkylation and leads to the formation of the corresponding 2-(bromo-alkoxy) chalcones. The structure of the synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR-, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The cytotoxic, hepatoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of chalcone derivatives (2-3) were studied for the first time in vitro and in vivo.
