Alkylation of Lithium Trialkylalkynylborates with Benzo-1,3-dithiolium Fluoroborate

, p. 164 - 165 (1981)
Lithium trialkylalkynylborates react in a stereoselective fashion with benzo-1,3-dithiolium fluoroborate to give vinylboranes which on oxidation yield protected 3-oxo-aldehydes and on hydrolysis give protected αβ-unsaturated aldehydes; the hydrolysis is highly selective giving rise eventually to stereospecifically defined αβ-unsaturated aldehydes by a novel process.

Multi N-heterocyclic carbene(NHC)-modified iridium catalysts were employed in the β-alkylation of alcohols; dimerization of primary alcohols (Guerbet reaction), cross-coupling of secondary and primary alcohols, and intramolecular cyclization of alcohols. Mechanistic studies of Guerbet reaction, including kinetic experiments, mass analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) calculation, were employed to explain the fast reaction promoted by bimetallic catalysts, and the dramatic reactivity increase of monometallic catalysts at the late stage of the reaction.

Activation of carbonyl moiety is one of the most rudimentary approaches in organic synthesis and is crucial for a plethora of industrial-scale condensation reactions. In esterification and aldol condensation, which represent two of the most important reactions, the susceptibility of the carbonyl group to nucleophile attack allows the construction of a variety of useful organic compounds. In this context, there is a constant need for development of and improvement in the methods for addition-elimination reactions via activation of carbonyl functionality. In this paper, an advanced methodology for the direct esterification of carboxylic acids and alcohols, and for aldol condensation of aldehydes using widely available, inexpensive, and metal-free 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin under neat reaction conditions is reported. The method is air- and moisture-tolerant, allowing simple synthetic and isolation procedures for both reactions presented in this paper. The reaction pathway for esterification is proposed and a scale-up of certain industrially important derivatives is performed.
Synthesis of Guerbet ionic liquids and extractants as β-branched biosourceable hydrophobes

This study investigates the synthesis of β-branched amines and β-branched quaternary ammonium chloride ionic liquids as novel extractants. The synthesis methodology was tailored to facilitate the reaction scale-up and the use of biorenewable starting materials. The developed process is an overall green, easy and straightforward synthesis of β-branched amines, and ammonium salts, starting from linear aldehydes. In order to evaluate the potential of the synthesised materials in applications, the rheology, density, thermal stability, chemical stability, phase transitions, and mutual solubility with water of the novel extractants was studied.
