Carbodiimides act as competent electrophilic synthons for the chemoselective addition of lithium mono‐ and di‐halocarbenoids. The transformation is provided through a single synthetic operation—hitherto elusive—halogenated acetamidines. Interestingly, the constitutively tamed electrophilicity of the starting materials is effectively counterbalanced by ...

A solvent‐free mechanochemical reduction of nitro compounds using hydrogen gas is presented. In addition to enabling the synthesis of a variety of functionalized aniline derivatives, the method has been scaled up to gram quantities, evaluated for trace metal impurities, and applied to the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds and their precursors.

Redrawing the Mannich‐Type Reaction through Carbonyl Umpolung Reactivity
GA: Herein, a conceptually novel one‐pot multicomponent strategy is reported for the streamlined construction of five‐membered imidazolidines from 1,2‐diaza‐1,3‐dienes (onefold), amines (twofold), and formaldehyde (twofold). This redesigned Mannich‐type reaction that exploits a carbene‐like activity of 1,2‐diaza‐1,3‐dienes (realized by “umpolung ...

A mild and versatile strategy enabling the divergent synthesis of α‐fluoroamides and α‐aminoacyl fluorides from 2‐bromo‐2,2‐difluoro alcohols and amines is developed. The reaction shows broad scope and operational simplicity. Mechanistic and density functional theory studies support the formation of a putative gem‐difluoroepoxide intermediate ...

Challenges in agrochemicals design [PDF]
Design of active ingredients is a multidimensional task. Sufficient target activity in combination with high bioavailability and no (or at least low) toxicological behaviour are prerequisites for promising candidates. In this respect, pharmaceutical and agrochemical companies need to address the same issues.

The integration between visible‐light photocatalysis and biocatalysis has the potential to greatly improve modern organic synthesis by combining the production of valuable synthetic intermediates under mild photochemical conditions with the high degree of stereoselectivity reached by enzymes. The review collects the recent efforts in the photoenzymatic
