Chemotaxis to Furan Compounds by Furan-Degrading Pseudomonas Strains [PDF]
ABSTRACT Two Pseudomonas strains known to utilize furan derivatives were shown to respond chemotactically to furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, furfuryl alcohol, and 2-furoic acid. In addition, a LysR-family regulatory protein known to regulate furan metabolic genes was found to be involved in regulating ...

Photooxygenation of furans in water and ionic liquid solutions [PDF]
Photooxygenation of differently functionalized furans is investigated in aqueous solutions and in ionic liquids [emim]Br and [bmim]BF4. The reaction is generally selective and the final products derive from rearrangement of the intermediate ...

A surprising steric effect on a tandem cycloaddition/ring-opening reaction : rapid syntheses of difluorinated analogues of (hydroxymethyl)conduritols [PDF]
Difluorinated analogues of (hydroxymethyl)conduritols can be synthesised from selected furans and a difluorinated dienophile in two reaction ...

Furan represent a class of compounds that have been reported in a wide variety of foods. Normally, they result from thermal decomposition reactions, and, as such, are important in foods. They also possess unique sensory properties and, thus, can significantly contribute to food flavor.

Synthesis of cyclopropyl-substituted furans by Brønsted acid promoted cascade reactions [PDF]
Chloroacetic acid promotes an efficient and diastereoselective intramolecular cascade reaction of electron-deficient ynenones to deliver products featuring a 2,3,5-trisubstituted furan bearing a fused cyclopropyl substituent at the 5-position ...

Iridium-Catalyzed Silylation of Five-Membered Heteroarenes: High Sterically Derived Selectivity from a Pyridyl-Imidazoline Ligand. [PDF]
The steric effects of substituents on five-membered rings are less pronounced than those on six-membered rings because of the difference in bond angles. Thus, the regioselectivities of reactions of five-membered heteroarenes that occur with selectivities

Thioether-catalysed tandem synthesis of furans and cyclic ethers or lactones [PDF]
Acyclic conjugated ynenediones tethered to an alcohol or carboxylic acid are converted into furanyl-substituted cyclic ethers or lactones in a single step by treatment with the tetrahydrothiophene.

Pyrolysis of furan in a microreactor [PDF]
A silicon carbide microtubular reactor has been used to measure branching ratios in the thermal decomposition of furan, C4H4O. The pyrolysis experiments are carried out by passing a dilute mixture of furan (approximately 0.01%) entrained in a stream of helium through the heated reactor.
