Usage

Description

Petiole, a crucial component of a plant, is the stalk that connects a leaf to the stem. It plays a vital role in the transportation of nutrients and water between the stem and the leaf, ensuring the plant's overall health and growth. Petioles may also contain specialized cells that participate in photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. Furthermore, petioles can help orient leaves to maximize sunlight exposure, which is essential for photosynthesis. The structure and characteristics of petioles can vary among different plant species, and their adaptations can be useful in plant identification.

Uses

Used in Plant Nutrition:
Petiole is used as a conduit for the transportation of nutrients and water within the plant, ensuring that the leaf receives the necessary sustenance for growth and photosynthesis.
Used in Photosynthesis:
In some plants, petioles contain specialized cells that contribute to the process of photosynthesis, allowing the plant to convert sunlight into energy.
Used in Plant Orientation:
Petiole is used as a mechanism to orient leaves, positioning them to maximize sunlight exposure and optimize the efficiency of photosynthesis.
Used in Plant Identification:
The unique adaptations and characteristics of petioles in different plant species can be used as a tool for plant identification, helping botanists and researchers distinguish between various plant types.

Oxidative 1,2-Difunctionalization of Ethylene via Gold-Catalyzed Oxyarylation

Under the conditions of oxidative gold catalysis, exposure of ethylene to aryl silanes and alcohols generates products of 1,2-oxyarylation. This provides a rare example of a process that allows catalytic differential 1,2-difunctionalization of this feedstock chemical.

Indium triiodide catalyzed direct hydroallylation of esters

The InI3-catalyzed hydroallylation of esters by using hydroand allysilanes under mild conditions has been accomplished. Many significant groups such as alkenyl, alkynyl, cyano, and nitro ones survive under these conditions. This reaction system, provided routes to both homoallylic alcohols and ethers, in which either elimination of the alkoxy moiety or of the carbonyl oxygen atom could be freely selected by changing the substituents on the alkoxy moiety and on the hydrosilane. In addition, the hydroallylation of lactones took place without ring cleavage to produce the desired cyclic ethers in high yields.

Gold-catalyzed etherification and friedel - Crafts alkylation using ortho-alkynylbenzoic acid alkyl ester as an efficient alkylating agent

A gold-catalyzed alkylation of alcohols and aromatic compounds is described. The reaction of ortho-alkynylbenzoic acid alkyl esters with alcohols or aromatic compounds occurs in the presence of catalytic amounts of Ph 3PAuCl and AgOTf under mild conditions to produce corresponding ethers or Friedel-Crafts alkylation products in good to high yields. The reaction likely proceeds through the gold-induced in situ construction of leaving groups and subsequent nucleophilic attack of alcohols or aromatic compounds.
