Strategies towards the synthesis of 6-N,N-diethylcarbamyloxy-1,4-dimethoxy- 7-naphthylboronic acid

After acetylation, condensation between Danishefsky's diene and benzoquinone afforded a stable methoxytriacetoxydihydronaphthalene intermediate, which was subsequently transformed by the Snieckus DOM protocol into the regiospecific 7-naphthylboronic acid.

Organophotocatalytic Aerobic Oxygenation of Phenols in a Visible-Light Continuous-Flow Photoreactor

A mild photocatalytic phenol oxygenation enabled by a continuous-flow photoreactor using visible light and pressurized air is described herein. Products for wide-ranging applications, including the synthesis of vitamins, were obtained in high yields by precisely controlling principal process parameters. The reactor design permits low organophotocatalyst loadings to generate singlet oxygen. It is anticipated that the efficient aerobic phenol oxygenation to benzoquinones and p-quinols contributes to sustainable synthesis.

PHOTOOXIDATION OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS

The present invention relates to the photooxidation of phenolic compounds to the respective quinoid compounds using methylene blue as photosensitizer in a solvent mixture of water and alcohols using light of the high wavelength range of the visible spectrum.
