Usage

Uses

Used in Organic Synthesis:
Cesium acetate is used as a reagent in the Perkin reaction, which is a method for preparing unsaturated cinnamic-type acids. It acts as a catalyst to facilitate the reaction between an aromatic acid and an aldehyde, resulting in the formation of the desired unsaturated acid.
Used in Petroleum Drilling Fluids:
Cesium acetate is used as an alternative to cesium formate in petroleum drilling fluids. It provides improved properties such as higher density, lower toxicity, and better environmental compatibility compared to cesium formate.
Used in Organometallic Chemistry:
In organometallic chemistry, cesium acetate serves as an additive for metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. It enhances the efficiency and selectivity of these reactions, leading to improved yields and product quality.
Used in Stereochemistry Inversion of Secondary Alcohols:
Cesium acetate is used in the inversion of stereochemistry of secondary alcohols. It acts as a nucleophile to facilitate the conversion of one enantiomer to another, allowing for the synthesis of different stereoisomers and expanding the scope of chemical reactions.

Carbon dioxide utilization via carbonate-promoted C-H carboxylation

Using carbon dioxide (CO2) as a feedstock for commodity synthesis is an attractive means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and a possible stepping-stone towards renewable synthetic fuels. A major impediment to synthesizing compounds from CO2 is the difficulty of forming carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds efficiently: although CO2 reacts readily with carbon-centred nucleophiles, generating these intermediates requires high-energy reagents (such as highly reducing metals or strong organic bases), carbon-heteroatom bonds or relatively acidic carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds. These requirements negate the environmental benefit of using CO2 as a substrate and limit the chemistry to low-volume targets. Here we show that intermediate-temperature (200 to 350 degrees Celsius) molten salts containing caesium or potassium cations enable carbonate ions (CO32-) to deprotonate very weakly acidic C-H bonds (pKa > 40), generating carbon-centred nucleophiles that react with CO2 to form carboxylates. To illustrate a potential application, we use C-H carboxylation followed by protonation to convert 2-furoic acid into furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) - a highly desirable bio-based feedstock with numerous applications, including the synthesis of polyethylene furandicarboxylate (PEF), which is a potential large-scale substitute for petroleum-derived polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Since 2-furoic acid can readily be made from lignocellulose, CO32--promoted C-H carboxylation thus reveals a way to transform inedible biomass and CO2 into a valuable feedstock chemical. Our results provide a new strategy for using CO2 in the synthesis of multi-carbon compounds.

TUBULIN BINDING AGENTS

The invention provides combretastatin A-4 like compounds that are modified to have enhanced tubulin binding activity and in some embodiments the ability to promote accumulation in the vasculature undergoing angiogenesis (homing activity). The compounds are based on the combretastatin A-4 skeletal structure having a tubulin-binding pharmacophore comprising two fused rings (A and B rings) in which the B ring is substituted with (a) an aromatic ring structure (C ring) and (b) a second substituent/functional group that comes off the B ring. The aromatic ring structure is typically a six membered ring phenolic or aniline structure, or may also be a fused ring structure such as a substituted or unsubstituted naphthalene. The second substituent on the B ring may for example be a substituent which has been found to provide enhanced tubulin binding activity (for example a carbonyl group), or may be a substituent that facilitates functionalisation of the B ring (for example an hydroxyl or amine group), or it may be a binding agent for a target that is preferentially expressed on vasculature undergoing angiogenesis, and not expressed on quiescent vasculature.

An improved method for product separation in metathetical reactions and its demonstration for the synthesis of anhydrous cesium salts

In conventional metathetical reactions, product separation is based on solubility product differences, and the resulting products are often impure and require purification by recrystallization. A new approach to product separation is described that relies on the formation of an unstable, volatile by-product, such as NH4+CH3O-. This method provides very pure and anhydrous products in high yield and was demonstrated successfully for the syntheses of anhydrous cesium salts.
