A facile synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes from β-diketones and aldehydes with AlCl3 as catalyst

Preparation of trisubstituted alkenes from low-activity β-diketones and aldehydes with aluminum chloride as catalyst has been studied. The frequently used catalyst AlCl3 is used for the first time to promote this condensation. The procedure is a convenient, low toxicity, and highly efficient method for industrial synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes in high yield. Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011.

Substituent Effects on 13C and 1H Chemical Shifts in 3-Benzylidene-2,4-pentanediones

Substituent effects on the 13C and 1H chemical shifts have been studied for derivatives of 3-benzylidene-2,4-pentanedione.A significant correlation has been found between chemical shifts of the Z carbonyl group and (C-2) and Hammett constants, while no correlation has been found for the E carbonyl group (C-4).Attempts have been made to determine the structural factors which influence these effects.The conformation of 3-benzylidene-2,4-pentanediones has been determined by 13C and 1H NMR spectroscopy.
