RhCl3-catalyzed hydroboration of alkenyl nitriles
Buranov, Anvar U.,Morrill, Terence C.
, p. 6301 - 6304 (2003)
RhCl3-promoted hydroboration-oxidation reactions of representative alkenyl nitriles have been carried out. Carbanion of acetonitrile is formed from the carbon-carbon heterolytic bond breaking in allyl cyanide during hydroboration. An unexpected process-trimerization of carbanion of acetonitrile has lead to the formation of 4-amino-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine.

, p. 657 - 658,2 (2020/07/30)
A mild and facile synthetic method of cyclic imides is presented. These compounds are widely used in the synthesis of novel medical, polymeric, photonic and electronic materials. Compared with traditional syntheses, the method reported has several advantages including mild conditions, simplified work-up and low cost.
Processes for producing epsilon caprolactams
-
, (2008/06/13)
This invention relates in part to processes for producing one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactams, e.g., epsilon caprolactam, which comprise (a) converting one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes, e.g., 6-hydroxyhexanal, optionally in the presence of a catalyst or a catalyst and promoter, to one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyamides, e.g. 6-hydroxycaproamide, and/or one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactam precursors, e.g., 6-aminocaproamide, epsilon caprolactone, epsilon caprolactone oligomers and esters of 6-hydroxycaproic acid and mixtures thereof, and (b) converting said one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyamides and/or said one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactam precursors, optionally in the presence of a catalyst or a catalyst and promoter, to said one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactams; wherein the amount of byproducts resulting from reduction and/or reductive amination of said one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes, e.g., 1,6-hexanediol, aminohexanol, and the like, is no greater than about 10 weight percent, preferably no greater than about 5 weight percent, and more preferably no greater than about 1 weight percent, of the total of said one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyamides and/or one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactam precursors. This invention also relates in part to reaction mixtures containing one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactams as principal product(s) of reaction.
