A detailed account regarding the synthesis of 2- and 5-halogenated dopamine is given. The key step is a chemoselective reduction of a nitrostyrene by Zn/HCl at 0 °C. These conditions represent a simple, low-cost alternative to reduction by water-sensitive hydride donors and two-step procedures. Under these conditions, aryl fluoride, chloride, and bromide groups are stable. However, iodine undergoes significant reductive dehalogenation.
Schwartz Reagents: Methods of In Situ Generation and Use

Page/Page column 7; 11, (2010/06/19)
Embodiments of the invention provide a method of using Schwartz Reagent, Cp2Zr(H)Cl, without accumulating or isolating it. Methods provide mixtures of Cp2ZrCl2, reductants that selectively reduce Cp2ZrCl2, and substrates. After reaction of Cp2ZrCl2 and the reductant, an intermediate reduction product is formed, apparently Schwartz Reagent. The in situ Schwartz Reagent then selectively reduces certain functional groups on the substrate. Substrates include tertiary amides, tertiary benzamides, aryl O-carbamates, and heteroaryl N-carbamates, which are reduced to aldehydes, benzaldehydes, aromatic alcohols, and heteroaromatics, respectively. Compared to prior methods, reagents are inexpensive and stable, reaction times are short, and reaction temperature in certain cases is conveniently room temperature. It has been estimated that using the in situ method described herein instead of synthesized or commercially obtained Schwartz Reagent provides a 50% reduction in cost.

Disclosed are herbicidal aryl substituted cycloalkyl and aryl substituted cycloalkenyl compounds, herbicidal compositions, and herbicidal use of the compounds and compositions. The aryl substituent is selected from substituted phenyl, unsubstituted or substituted five-membered heterocycle, and unsubstituted or substituted six-membered heterocycle.
