Usage

General Description

2-PHENYL-ACRYLIC ACID METHYL ESTER, also known as methyl cinnamate, is an organic compound with a molecular formula of C10H10O2. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, fruit-like odor, and is commonly used in the fragrance and flavor industry. Methyl cinnamate is naturally found in a variety of plants, including cinnamon, strawberry, and cherry. It is used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages, as well as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, soaps, and cosmetics. Additionally, it has potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry, as it exhibits antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. However, it is important to note that methyl cinnamate is a skin and eye irritant, and exposure to high concentrations can cause respiratory irritation. Therefore, proper safety precautions should be taken when handling this chemical.

Catalysis in supercritical CO2 using dendrimer-encapsulated palladium nanoparticles

Dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles are shown to be versatile catalysts for both the hydrogenation of styrene and Heck heterocoupling of iodobenzene and methacrylate in supercritical CO2 (scCO2).

Room-temperature Pd-catalyzed methoxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes with high branched selectivity enabled by bisphosphine-picolinamide ligand

Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydroesterification of α-Aryl Acrylic Acids to Chiral Substituted Succinates

A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroesterification of α-aryl acrylic acids with CO and alcohol was developed, preparing a variety of chiral α-substituted succinates in moderate yields with high ee values. The kinetic profile of the reaction progress revealed that the alkene substrate first underwent the hydroesterification followed by esterification with alcohol. The origin of the enantioselectivity was elucidated by density functional theory computation.

Photocatalytic Hydromethylation and Hydroalkylation of Olefins Enabled by Titanium Dioxide Mediated Decarboxylation

A versatile method for the hydromethylation and hydroalkylation of alkenes at room temperature is achieved by using the photooxidative redox capacity of the valence band of anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2). Mechanistic studies support a radical-based mechanism involving the photoexcitation of TiO2 with 390 nm light in the presence of acetic acid and other carboxylic acids to generate methyl and alkyl radicals, respectively, without the need for stoichiometric base. This protocol is accepting of a broad scope of alkene and carboxylic acids, including challenging ones that produce highly reactive primary alkyl radicals and those containing functional groups that are susceptible to nucleophilic substitution such as alkyl halides. This methodology highlights the utility of using heterogeneous semiconductor photocatalysts such as TiO2 for promoting challenging organic syntheses that rely on highly reactive intermediates.
