In particular, the number of ingenious and daring applications of Stille couplings in the challenging proving ground of total synthesis bears testament to the faith placed in the robustness and versatility of this reaction by practitioners of this art. Notably, the Stille reaction can be viewed as a variation of the Heck reaction in which a hydrogen atom is replaced by a tin-bearing substituent.[10] Another extraordinarily useful palladium-catalyzed carbon–carbon bond-forming reaction involves the palla- dium-mediated coupling of organic electrophiles, such as aryl or alkenyl halides and triflates, with organoboron compounds in the presence of a base (Scheme 1),[11] a process known today as the Suzuki reaction.

  • Measuring and Predicting Sooting Tendencies of Oxygenates, Alkanes, Alkenes, Cycloalkanes, and Aromatics on a Unified Scale
    Measuring and Predicting Sooting Tendencies of Oxygenates, Alkanes, Alkenes, Cycloalkanes, and Aromatics on a Unified Scale Dhrubajyoti D. Dasa,1, Peter St. Johnb,1, Charles S. McEnallya,∗, Seonah Kimb, Lisa D. Pfefferlea aYale University, Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering, New Haven CT 06520 bNational Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden CO 80401 Abstract Soot from internal combustion engines negatively affects health and climate. Soot emissions might be reduced through the expanded usage of appropriate biomass-derived fuels. Databases of sooting indices, based on measuring some aspect of sooting behavior in a standardized combustion environment, are useful in providing information on the comparative sooting tendencies of different fuels or pure compounds. However, newer biofuels have varied chemical structures including both aromatic and oxygenated functional groups, making an accurate measurement or prediction of their sooting tendency difficult. In this work, we propose a unified sooting tendency database for pure compounds, including both regular and oxygenated hydrocarbons, which is based on combining two disparate databases of yield-based sooting tendency measurements in the literature. Unification of the different databases was made possible by leveraging the greater dynamic range of the color ratio pyrometry soot diagnostic. This unified database contains a substantial number of pure compounds (≥ 400 total) from multiple categories of hydrocarbons important in modern fuels and establishes the sooting tendencies of aromatic and oxygenated hydrocarbons on the same numeric scale for the first time. Using this unified sooting tendency database, we have developed a predictive model for sooting behavior applicable to a broad range of hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons. The model decomposes each compound into single-carbon fragments and assigns a sooting tendency contribution to each fragment based on regression against the unified database.

This review presents an overview of the application of these methods on halogenated quinazolin-4-ones and their quinazolines to generate novel polysubstituted derivatives. Keywords: halogenoquinazolin-4-ones; halogenoquinazolines; cross-coupling reactions 1. Introduction and Scope In recent years, the development of strategies to efficiently functionalize presynthesized halogenated quinazolinones and quinazolines or their tosylate derivatives via metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to afford novel polycarbo- or polyheteroatom-substituted derivatives with potential application in pharmaceuticals and materials has attracted considerable interest. The 3-substituted 2,6-diarylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones 1 and 2 (Figure 1), for example, were previously prepared via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of the corresponding 6-halogenated 4(3H)-oxo precursors and were found to be ghrelin receptor and vasopressin V1b receptor antagonists, respectively [1,2].

  • Heterocyclic Chemistry Updated
    1 | Page Heterocyclic Chemistry By Dr Vipul Kataria Definition: A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements (N, O, S, P) as members of its ring. Introduction: Heterocyclic compounds may be defined as cyclic compounds having as ring members atoms of at least two different elements. It means the cyclic compound has one another atom different than carbon. Heterocyclic compounds have much importance in organic chemistry because of abundant presence of heterocyclic compounds in present pharmaceutical drugs. Like other organic compounds, there are several defined rules for naming heterocyclic compounds. IUPAC rules for nomenclature of heterocyclic systems (SPU 2012, 2 Marks) The system for nomenclature for heterocyclic systems was given by Hantzsch and Widman. The Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature is based on the type (Z) of the heteroatom; the ring size (n) and nature of the ring, whether it is saturated or unsaturated. This system of nomenclature applies to monocyclic 3-to-10-membered ring heterocycles. Type of the heteroatom: The type of heteroatom is indicated by a prefix as shown below for common hetreroatoms. Dr Vipul Kataria, Chemistry Department, V. P. & R. P. T. P. Science College, VV Nagar 2 | Pag e When two or more of the same heteroatoms are present, the prrefix di, tri, tetra… are used. e.g. dioxa, triaza, dithia. If the heteroatoms are different their atomic number in that grroup is considered. Thus order of numbering will be O, S, N, P, Si. Ring size: The ring size is indicated by a suffix according to Table I below.

Copper-Catalyzed Arylation of Stabilized Carbanions A mild, general catalytic system for the synthesis of a-aryl malonates has been developed. Aryl iodides bearing a variety of functional groups can be effectively coupled to diethyl malonate in high yields using inexpensive and widely available reagents, making this a superior method to those previously described that employ copper reagents or catalysts. The functional group tolerance of the process developed makes it complementary to analogous palladium-catalyzed couplings. Importantly, a set of mild reaction conditions has been developed that minimize product decomposition, a problem that had not been addressed previously in the literature.

  • Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution
    NUCLEOPHILIC AROMATIC SUBSTITUTION Ms. Prerana Sanas M.Pharm (Pharmceutical Chemistry) Asst.Professor, NCRD’s Sterling Institute of Pharmacy Nerul Navi Mumbai Nucleophilic aromatic substitution results in the substitution of a halogen X on a benzene ring by a nucleophile (:Nu– ). Aryl halides undergo a limited number of substitution reactions with strong nucleophiles. NAS occurs by two mechanisms i) Bimoleccular displacement (Addition –Elimination) ii) Benzyne Formation( Elimination –Addition) 7/5/2019 Ms.Prerana Sanas 2 Bimolecular displacement (Addition – Elimination) Aryl halides with strong electron-withdrawing groups (such as NO2) on the ortho or para positions react with nucleophiles to afford substitution products. For example, treatment of p-chloronitrobenzene with hydroxide (– OH) affords p-nitrophenol by replacement of Cl by OH. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution occurs with a variety of strong nucleophiles, including – OH, – OR, – NH2, – SR, and in some cases, neutral nucleophiles such as NH3 and RNH2 . 7/5/2019 Ms.Prerana Sanas 3 Mechanism…… The mechanism of these reactions has two steps: Step i) Addition of the nucleophile (:Nu– ) forms a resonance-stabilized carbanion with a new C – Nu bond—three resonance structures can be drawn. • Step [1] is rate-determining since the aromaticity of the benzene ring is lost. In Step ii) loss of the leaving group re-forms the aromatic ring. This step is fast because the aromaticity of the benzene ring is restored. 7/5/2019 Ms.Prerana Sanas 4 Factors affecting Bimolecular displacement Increasing the number of electron-withdrawing groups increases the reactivity of the aryl halide. Electron-withdrawing groups stabilize the intermediate carbanion, and by the Hammond postulate, lower the energy of the transition state that forms it.
