The chiral (salen)Cr(III)/BF3·OEt2 catalytic combination was found to be an effective catalyst for intramolecular Friedel–Crafts cyclization of electron-deficient Morita–Baylis–Hillman adducts. In presence of mild reaction conditions the chiral (salen)Cr(III)/BF3·OEt2 complex affords 2-substituted-1H-indenes from unique substrates of Morita–Baylis–Hillman adducts via an easy operating practical procedure.

Methanesulfonic acid has been found to be a highly effective catalyst for a convenient and one-pot synthesis of 2-substituted benzoxazoles by the reaction of 2-aminophenol with acid chlorides, generated in situ from carboxylic acids. Aryl, heteroaryl, and arylalkyl carboxylic acids provided excellent yields of the corresponding benzoxazoles. The reaction conditions were compatible with various substituents such as chloro, bromo, nitro, methoxy, cyclopentyloxy, phenoxy, thiophenoxy, and conjugated double bonds. Benzoxazole formation was found to be general with respect to substituted 2-aminophenols.

AbstractHydroboration of trialkyn-1-yl(organo)silanes with one equivalent and two equivalents of 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane, 9-BBN afford dialkyn-1-ylsilanes and alkyn-1-ylsilanes, respectively. The alkyn-1-ylsilane derivatives are stable at room temperature and can be store under dry argon for prolong period of time. These compounds are attractive materials for further rearrangements to afford novel 1-silacyclobutene derivatives bearing Si-alkenyl or Si-alkynyl functionalities. The hydroboration reaction is well controlled by the Si-R1 function, i.e., the starting silanes with R1 = Ph selectively afford hydroboration of one Si-C≡C bond with one equivalent of 9-BBN, leaving the other two functionalities untouched. Under mild reaction conditions (25°C), the starting silanes with R1 = Me lead to mixture containing dialkyn-1-ylsilane, alkyn-1-ylsilane and their respective 1-silacyclobutene derivatives. All new compounds are sensitive towards air and moisture and were studied by multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 11B, 29Si NMR) in solution.

Copper chromite was reported as an effective catalyst for the hydrogenation of esters to alcohols by Homer Adkins in 1931, and it still remains the catalyst of choice for this reaction. Its most common commercial application is in the hydrogenation of fatty esters to detergent range linear alcohols. Typical reaction conditions are relatively severe: 200-250°C and 2000-4000 psig hydrogen. Barium is often used as a promoter and such a catalyst is prepared by codeposition of barium and copper chromates followed by calcination to the mixed chromite. The catalyst is usually activated by reduction with hydrogen which is believed to generate highly dispersed copper metal. The barium supposedly retards overreduction of the catalyst and ameliorates sulfate poisoning.Knowledge of the distribution and association of the Ba, Cu, and Cr catalyst components is important in understanding its function and in the design of better catalysts.

4,4-Bis(trifluoromethyl) substituted 1-oxa-3-azabuta-1,3-dienes (1) and alkynes react to give open-chain trifluoromethyl substituted N-propargylic amides (4), 4H-1,3-oxazines (5) and 2-oxazolines (6, 7), respectively. The selectivity of the reaction can be controlled effectively by the reaction conditions used.
