Nucleophilic α-addition to β-nitroacrylates: application to the synthesis of α-thioacrylates
Lewandowska, Elzbieta
, p. 4879 - 4883 (2007/10/03)
The α-addition of alkyl or aryl thionucleophiles to β-nitro-α,β-unsaturated alkenoates in THF in the presence of TEA or DBU gave access to the α-thio-α,β-unsaturated alkenoates. The reaction occurred via formation of β-nitro-α-thioalkanoates and concomitant elimination of nitrous acid from the α-adducts.
Nitroalkanes and ethyl glyoxalate as common precursors for the preparation of both β-keto esters and α,β-unsaturated esters
Ballini, Roberto,Fiorini, Dennis,Palmieri, Alessandro
, p. 7027 - 7029 (2007/10/03)
β-Nitro acrylic esters, obtained by the reaction of nitroalkanes and ethyl glyoxalate, are the key building blocks for the immediate synthesis of both the title compounds. In fact, their treatment with titanium trichloride produce the direct conversion to the β-keto esters, while their reaction with sodium boron hydride gives the one-pot synthesis of α,β- unsaturated esters through formal substitution of the vinylic nitro group with an hydrogen.
Photoreaction of cinnamate with nitrogen monoxide catalyzed by metallosalen complexes
Furusho, Yoshio,Sohgawa, Yow-hei,Kihara, Nobuhiro,Takata, Toshikazu
, p. 2025 - 2029 (2007/10/03)
Ethyl cinnamate was allowed to react with nitrogen monoxide (NO) by photoirradiation in the presence of metallosalen complexes (4), oxygen, and axial ligands for 4 to yield furoxan derivatives (6). Oxygen and axial ligands are indispensable for this react
