Active Molybdenum-Based Anode for Dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions

A new and powerful active anode system that can be operated in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) has been discovered. In HFIP the molybdenum anode forms a compact, conductive, and electroactive layer of higher-valent molybdenum species. This system can replace powerful but stoichiometrically required MoV reagents for the dehydrogenative coupling of aryls. This electrolytic reaction is more sustainable and allows the conversion of a broad scope of activated arenes.

A concise total synthesis of the purported structure of flossonol

We report the first total synthesis of flossonol in only five steps and of one of its isomers in seven steps using a radical addition/cyclization sequence as the key step. Comparison of our spectroscopic data with those of the literature indicates a misas

A short synthesis of bisabolane sesquiterpenes

A facile total synthesis of three members of the bisabolane sesquiterpene family, namely (±)-curcumene, (±)-xanthorrhizol and (±)-curcuhydroquinone had been achieved in high overall yield. The synthesis used bromobenzene derivatives as starting materials.
