Transesterification of methyl esters was accelerated by an in situ-generated metal-free catalyst comprising a quaternary alkylammonium salt and an epoxide. The combination of a quaternary alkylammonium acetate and glycidol is optimal, and various esters were synthesized from methyl esters with alcohols in good to excellent yield. Analysis of the catalyst solution revealed that basic species are generated by the ring-opening reaction of epoxide.

Alkyl diazonium ions are among the most reactive alkylating agents in the synthetic chemists’ arsenal. That said, there are precious few methods by which one can selectively and safely utilize this chemistry. Herein, we show the use of a bench stable hexyl triazabutadiene as a source of reactive diazonium ions that undergo substitution chemistry with weak nucleophiles, such as carboxylates and even sulfonates. In the absence of a nucleophile, elimination was observed to occur. To overcome issues stemming from side-product inhibition of the reaction, we show that the triazabutadiene can be pre-activated with tosyl isocyanate.

A family of novel oligomers based on the anthranilamide nucleus has been prepared and shown to form well-defined secondary structural features. 1H NMR and X-ray crystallographic techniques have demonstrated that intramolecular hydrogen bonds play a key role in stabilizing both linear sheet and helical conformational forms.
