Traditional approaches to stereoselective synthesis require high levels of enantio- and diastereocontrol in every step that forms a new stereocenter. Here, we report an alternative approach, in which the stereochemistry of organic substrates is selectivel

In this work, we have assessed the activity of various Keggin heteropolyacid (HPA) salts in a new one-pot synthesis route of valuable products, which were obtained from the oxidation of terpenic alcohols (i.e., aldehyde, epoxide, and diepoxide), using a green oxidant (i.e., hydrogen peroxide) at mild conditions (i.e., room temperature). Lacunar Keggin HPA sodium salts were the goal catalysts investigated in this reaction. Starting from the HPAs (H3PW12O40, H3PMo12O40, and H4SiW12O40), we synthesized lacunar sodium salts (Na7PW11O39, Na7PW11O39 and Na8SiW11O39) and a saturated salt (Na3PW12O40). All of them were investigated in oxidation reactions in a homogeneous phase with nerol as a model molecule. Na7PW11O39 was the most active and selective towards the oxidation products. All the catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, TG/DSC, BET, XRD, and SEM-EDS analyses and potentiometric titration. The main reaction parameters were assessed. Geraniol, α-terpineol, β-citronellol and borneol were also successfully oxidized. Special attention was dedicated to correlating the composition and properties of the catalysts with their activity.
An effective procedure for the synthesis of acid-sensitive epoxides: Use of 1-methylimidazole as the additive on methyltrioxorhenium-catalyzed epoxidation of alkenes with hydrogen peroxide

An effective method for suppression of ring opening and rearrangement of acid-sensitive epoxides during methyltrioxorhenium(MTO)-catalyzed epoxidation of alkenes with H2O2 by using 1-methylimidazole as a co-additive has been found. The combined use of 3-methylpyrazole and 1-methylimidazole as the additives has been found to be an effective procedure that affords excellent yields of acid-sensitive epoxides for MTO-catalyzed epoxidation.

The pinanes are preferably attacked at the tertiary C-H bond in 2-position, but products of the oxidative attack at the secondary C-H-bonds in 3- and 4-position are also found.At 100 deg C cis-pinane is attacked more easily than trans-pinane (kcis : ktrans = 6.4), the relative rates of attack at the secondary C-H bonds in positions 3 and 4 with respect to the tertiary C-H bond in 2-position were also determined (in cis-pinane ksec : ktert = 0.027; in trans-pinane ksec : ktert = 0.20).After the attack at the 2-C-H bond the radical formed can either react with oxygen to form the corresponding cis- and trans-peroxy radicals and further to give cis- and trans-2-hydroperoxy pinane or fragmentate to the monocyclic radical derived from α-terpinene, giving as a final products α-terpinene hydroperoxide and the bicyclic 8-hydroperoxy 4,4,8-trimethyl 2,3-dioxabicyclononane.The corresponding alcohols were found after reduction with sodium sulphite.The oxidation at position 2 of the pinanes delivers not only the cis- and trans-hydroperoxide but also, as short-lived intermediates, the corresponding 2-pinanyloxy radicals.These radicals fragmentate forming a carbon radical with cyclobutane structure whose oxidation products were identified.Besides fragmentation of the 2-pinanyloxy radical also an intramolecular H-transfer from the methyl group in 9-position to the oxygen of the trans-pinanyloxy radical takes place leading to 9-hydroperoxy trans-pinane-2-ol.

The cyclic analogue rac-14b of JH-III and its 2Z isomer rac-14a were obtained by a multi-step synthesis starting from rac-α-terpineol.The Wadsworth-Emmons reaction was applied to the formation of the carbon chain and to the introduction of the ester funct
