Abstract:
The present disclosure describes novel silylated heteroaromatic derivatives, including those prepared by methods comprising the use of hydrosilanes and at least one strong base, the definition of strong base now also including hydroxide, especially KOH.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides methods for intermolecular enantioselective C-acylation of lactams with quaternary stereogenic centers by applying a chiral Ni catalyst. The methods comprise treating a lactam with a chiral Ni catalyst, an aryl nitrile, and an aryl halide.
Abstract:
The invention provides heterocyclic compounds with quaternary centers and methods of preparing compounds. Methods include the method for the preparation of a compound of Formula (II): comprising treating a compound of Formula (I): with a transition metal catalyst and under alkylation conditions as valence and stability permit.
Abstract:
The present invention describes chemical systems and methods for silylating heteroaromatic organic substrates, said system consisting essentially of a mixture of (a) at least one organodisilane and (b) at least alkoxide base, preferably a potassium alkoxide base, and said methods comprising contacting a quantity of the organic substrate with a mixture consisting essentially of (a) at least one organodisilane and (b) at least one alkoxide base, preferably a potassium alkoxide, under conditions sufficient to silylate the heteroaromatic substrate.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to methods of forming olefins, especially linear alpha olefins from fatty acids or anhydrides, each method comprising: contacting an amount of precursor carboxylic acid anhydride with a palladium catalyst comprising a bidentate bis-phosphine ligand in a reaction mixture so as to form an olefin in a product with the concomittant formation and removal of CO and water from the reaction mixture, either directly or indirectly, wherein the reaction mixture is maintained with a sub-stoichiometric excess of a sacrificial carboxylic acid anhydride, an organic acid, or both, said sub-stoichiometric excess being relative to the amount of the precursor carboxylic acid anhydride. The precursor carboxylic acid anhydride may be added to the reaction mixture directly or formed in situ by the reaction between at least one precursor carboxylic acid with a stoichiometric amount of the sacrificial acid anhydride.
Abstract:
This invention relates generally to the synthesis of Δ12-Prostaglandin J product using stereoretentive ruthenium olefin metathesis catalysts supported by dithiolate ligands. Δ12-Prostaglandin J products were generated with excellent selectivity (>99% Z) and in moderate to high/good yields (47% to 80% yield; 58% to 80% yield).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods of treating immune disorders and/or inflammation using certain modulator compounds. For example, the present invention provides methods of treating immune and/or inflammatory disorders by administering a composition comprising a compound having the structure of Formula (I).
