Staudinger ligation towards cyclodextrin dimers in aqueous/organic media. Synthesis, conformations and guest-encapsulation ability

β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) dimers have been prepared using the bioorthogonal Staudinger ligation for the first time. In addition to a known linker, methyl 2-(diphenylphosphanyl)terephthalate, a doubly active linker was specifically developed that enabled conne

Preparation of phosphonoterephthalic acids via palladium-catalyzed coupling of aromatic iodoesters

The current article reports in detail the preparation of two phosphonoterephthalic acids: 2-phosphonoterephthalic acid (1) and 2,5-diphosphonoterephthalic acid (2). Efficient, scalable syntheses have been developed for both compounds based on Pd-catalyzed

Structure, theoretical studies, and coupling reactions of some new cyclic boronic esters

The present report describes the X-ray structural and theoretical studies of some new pinacolboronate esters, and it also outlines the use of the target structures in Suzuki coupling reactions to produce new aromatic or heteroaromatic esters and amides. X

Synthesis and flame retardant testing of new boronated and phosphonated aromatic compounds

The present report describes the preparation and use of some dimethyl terephthalate derivatives in transition metal-catalyzed coupling reactions to produce new reactive flame retardants. Dimethyl iodoterephthalate and dimethyl 2,5-diiodoterephthalate were

Simple access to sol-gel precursors bearing fluorescent aromatic core units

Di-, tri-, and tetrathienyl-substituted polycyclic aromatic fluorophores were prepared from different aryldi-, aryltri-, or aryltetrahalides by a simple and fast Suzuki coupling. The reaction was optimized for the synthesis of the desired materials on mul
