New copper(I) and iron(II) complexes for atom transfer radical macrocyclisation reactions

New Cu(I) and Fe(II) complexes have been synthesized and proved to be efficient catalysts for atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) reactions. The catalytic activity was found to be greater than existing atom transfer systems based upon CuCl(bipyridine) or RuCl2(PPh3)3, for example. The addition of a reducing agent considerably improved the efficiency of the usual procedures. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2000.

Synthesis of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-enyl methyl esters of haloacetic acids

Synthesis of norbornenyl methyl esters of a number of haloacetic acids via [4+2] cycloaddition of cyclopentadiene to allyl esters of these acids was examined. The yield and isomer composition of the synthesized compounds were examined in relation to the reaction conditions, and the best conditions for their preparation were found.
