FeCl3-catalyzed functionalization of monoterpenes via hydroalkylation of unactivated alkenes
Yadav,Subba Reddy,Narasimhulu,Purnima
experimental part, p. 5783 - 5785 (2009/12/26)
Monoterpenes such as α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene and isolimonene undergo smooth hydroalkoxylation in the presence of 20 mol % of FeCl3 under mild reaction conditions to produce a wide range of the corresponding ethers in excellent yields and with high selectivity.
Kinetic vs. thermodynamic control in intramolecular diene cyclozirconation: Synthesis of elemol
Taber,Taber, Douglass F.,Wang
, p. 6639 - 6642 (2007/10/02)
We predicted (ZINDO) that the major diastereomer from the equilibrating cyclozirconation of the α-terpineol derived diene 1 should be, after oxygenation, the diol 2. We have confirmed this by converting 2 to (+)-elemol 8. The diastereomeric control of the cyclozirconation under kinetic conditions is also striking, providing diol 3.
NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION OF ALKYL HALIDES BY ZINC SALTS-3 PREPARATION OF TERTARY ALKYL ESTERS AND ETHERS UNDER NON-SOLVOLYTIC CONDITIONS
Ravindranath, B.,Srinivas, P.
, p. 1623 - 1628 (2007/10/02)
Zinc salts of carboxylic acids, phenols and alcohols are found to react with tertiary alkyl halides in nonpolar solvents and in presence of a base yielding the corresponding esters and ethers in moderate to good yields.
