759-05-7 4-Isopropyl-2-oxazolin-5-one anion as a new convenient formyl anion equivalent for conjugate addition and aldol reactions

-
The anion of the title compound, simply generated in the presence of catalytic amount of triethylamine, acts as nucleophilic acylating equivalent of formaldehyde reacting with both common electrophilic olefins or aldehydes to give moderate to good yield of Michael or aldol adducts respectively, which are easily hydrolized by dilute acid at ambient to temperature to afford the corresponding aldehydes. https://www.lookchem.com/CASDataBase_759-05-7.htm

100-64-1 On the Oxidation of Hydroxylamines with o -Iodoxybenzoic Acid (IBX)

-
o -Iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) is confirmed as a powerful tool for the oxidation of hydroxylamines. The synthetic route is demonstrated as efficient and user friendly, and is exploited on various carbohydrate-derived N,N-disubstituted hydroxylamines (cyclic, acyclic, and functionalized ones), affording the corresponding nitrones in good yields and regioselectivity. N-Monosubstituted hydroxylamines revealed an interesting divergent behavior depending on the reaction conditions. While IBX oxidation in dimethyl sulfoxide at 45 °C furnished oximes as reported, the oxidation in dichloromethane at room temperature afforded efficiently the unusual corresponding nitroso dimers. https://www.lookchem.com/CASDataBase_100-64-1.htm

75-75-2 Solvolyses of Secondary Sulfonates in Aqueous Ethanol and Acetone. Nonlinear mY Relationships due to Leaving Group and Medium Effects

-
Solvolitic rate constants for secondary mesylates and tosylates in aqueous ethanol and in aqueous acetone are correlated with Winstein-Grunwald Y values.Curvature of these plots is greatest for tosylates in aqueous ethanol, especially for 2-adamantyl.Because mesylates show little or no curvature, it is argued that the results cannot be explained by mechanistic changes but by solvation effects of the leaving group in the mixed solvents.The parameter, m, measuring response to solvent ionizing power varies from 0.68 for isopropyl to 1.21 for 2-adamantyl mesylate in aqueosus acetone at 25 deg C.An alternative solvent ionizing power parameter for tosylates, Y OTs , and the solvent nucleohpilicity parameter, N OTs , are evaluated for 20percent ethanol/water, 20percent acetone/water, and 40percent acetone/water.It is proposed that solvolyses of substrates having the same (or very similar) leaving group should be compared if reliable mechanistic information (e.g., nucleophilic solvation effec...

75-01-4 Nickel(I) Octaethylisobacteriochlorin Anion. An Exceptional Nucleophile. Reduction and Coupling of Alkyl Halides by Anionic and Radical Processes. A Model for Factor F-430

-
Nickel(I)octaethylisobacteriochlorin anion (Ni(I)OEiBC - ) reacts extremely rapidly with aliphatic halides and methyl tosylate in homogeneous DMF solution.The reactivity sequence, CH3 > primary > secondary tertiary, and the rate law accord with an S N 2-like process for the carbon-halogen bond scission.However, the main products of the reactions derive from free radicals.The rate for methyl chloride is 2000 times faster than the corresponding reaction with the super nucleophile Co(I)B12 s -1 and the rate constant for isopropyl bromide is 350 times greater than that observed with CpFe(CO)2 - .The results indicate NiOEiBC - is the fastest nucleophile on record.Studies of the influence of solvent and reactant deuteration and the influence of anion and radical scavengers upon the product distribution suggest the intermediacy of at least one and possibly two nickel alkyls of fleeting lifetime.A novel explanation for the unusual speed of these reactions is put forward.It entails the...
