Unexpected crystallization and X-ray crystal structure of racemic 1-phenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)ethanol intermediate

We have isolated, by crystallization, the intermediate, 1-phenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)ethanol, from the condensation reaction of 4-methylpyridine with benzaldehyde in which the aim was to obtain the model compound 4-styrylpyridine in absence of a condensing agent

1,2-Diarylethanols by alternative regioselective reductive ring-opening of 2,3-diaryloxiranes

Non-symmetrical ￡rans-2,3-diaryloxiranes have been regioselectively opened by catalytic hydrogenation over Pd/C, NaBH4/Pd and [Cp 2TiCl]/H2O. Although in the catalytic hydrogenation reactions the epoxides were mainly opened at the β-carbon with respect to the substituted aryl ring in all cases, with the [Cp2TiCl]/H 2O system the regioselectivity was affected by the electronic properties of the aryl residues, the epoxides being opened on the carbon bearing the most electron-releasing or the least electron-withdrawing group. With the NaBH4/Pd system different regioisomers were obtained depending on the substituents. Starting from enantioenriched epoxides, no loss of optical purity was observed in the alcohols formed.

Cation sensors containing a (bpy)Re(CO)3 group linked to an azacrown ether via an alkenyl or alkynyl spacer: Synthesis, characterisation, and complexation with metal cations in solution

Two [(bpy)Re(CO)3L]+ complexes (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine), where L contains an aza-15-crown-5 ether which is linked to Re via an alkenyl- or alkynyl-pyridine spacer, have been synthesised along with model complexes. Solutions of the com
