- Cu(OAc)2/TFA-promoted formal [3 + 3] cycloaddition/oxidation of enamines and enones for synthesis of multisubstituted aromatic amines
-
New strategies for the oxidative cycloaddition of enones with enamines are developed. These cycloaddition reactions directly afford substituted aromatic amines, which are important in organic chemistry, in moderate to good yield. Cu(OAc)2/TFA is shown to be essential to achieve high reaction efficiency.

- Study of substituent effects in substituted dibenzal acetones
-
The present work involves a detailed study of the ultra-violet absorption spectra of various substituted dibenzylidene ketones derived from acetone, ethyl methyl ketone, diethyl ketone, cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone by condensing with several meta- and para-substituted benzaldehydes in n-hexane and in ethanol to ascertain the transition dominant in these solvents. These ketones exist as equilibrium mixtures of s-cis, cis and s-cis, trans conformations. The ultraviolet absorption spectra of the ketones exhibit two bands due to π* ← π transition around 250 and 320 nm. The 320 nm band is prominent in all the cases. There is no indication of π* ← n transition in any of the spectra. The 320 nm band is structureless in all the cases except those shown by the dibenzylidene ketones derived from cyclopentanone in hexane. Therefore it can be inferred that the dibenzylide ketones derived from all the ketones except those derived from cyclopentanone are non-planar.
