Enantioselective synthesis of (+)-petromyroxol, enabled by rhodium-catalyzed denitrogenation and rearrangement of a 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole [PDF]
Petromyroxol is a non-racemic mixture of enantiomeric oxylipids isolated from water conditioned with larval sea lamprey. The (+)-antipode exhibits interesting biological properties but only 1 mg was isolated from >100000 L of water.

Stereoselective protecting group free synthesis of d,l-gulose ethyl glycoside via multicomponent enyne cross metathesis—hetero Diels–Alder reaction [PDF]
An efficient and stereoselective synthesis of d,l-gulose was described. The key step of the synthetic route is represented by a multicomponent enyne cross metathesis—hetero Diels–Alder reaction which allows the formation of the pyran ring from cheap and ...

Mechanisms and Specificity of Phenazine Biosynthesis Protein PhzF
Phenazines are bacterial virulence and survival factors with important roles in infectious disease. PhzF catalyzes a key reaction in their biosynthesis by isomerizing (2 S,3 S)-2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy anthranilate (DHHA) in two steps, a [1,5]-hydrogen ...

Understanding anionic Chugaev elimination in pericyclic tetracene formation [PDF]
The reaction pathway for the formation of tetracenes from the diols 1,2-C6H4(CHOHC≡CAr)2 , LiHDMS, CS2 and MeI has been modelled by computational methods at the CBS-QB3 level of theory.

Domino reaction of 3-nitro-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromenes with 2-(1-phenylalkylidene)malononitriles: Synthesis of functionalized 6-(trifluoromethyl)-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyrans and a rare case of [1,5] sigmatropic shift of the nitro group [PDF]
A variety of functionalized 6-(trifluoromethyl)-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyrans were easily synthesized in good yields under mild conditions by a domino reaction of 3-nitro-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromenes with 2-(1-phenylethylidene)- and 2-(1-phenylpropylidene ...

Multistep self-assembly of heteroleptic magnesium and sodium-magnesium benzamidinate complexes [PDF]
Reaction of the magnesium bis-alkyl Mg(CH2SiMe3)(2) and the sodium amide NaHMDS (where HMDS = N(SiMe3)(2)) with benzonitrile yields the homometallic heteroleptic complex [PhC(NSiMe3)(2)Mg{mu-NC(CH2SiMe3)Ph}](2) (1).

Sigmatropic rearrangements in 5-allyloxytetrazoles [PDF]
Mechanisms of thermal isomerization of allyl tetrazolyl ethers derived from the carbocyclic allylic alcohols cyclohex-2-enol and 3-methylcyclohex-2-enol and from the natural terpene alcohol nerol were investigated.
