Selenium-promoted electrophilic cyclization of arylpropiolamides: synthesis of 3-organoselenyl spiro[4,5]trienones

Org. Biomol. Chem., 2020, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D0OB00609B, Paper
Ana Maria S. Recchi, Pedro H. P. Rosa, Davi F. Back, Gilson Zeni
A synthetic approach to regioselective synthesis of 3-organochalcogenyl spiro[4,5]trienones and 3-organochalcogenyl[4,5]triene-2,6-diones is described through the reaction of arylpropiolamides with an electrophilic chalcogen source.

Pseudo-enantiomeric carbohydrate-based N-heterocyclic carbenes as promising chiral ligands for enantiotopic discrimination

Org. Biomol. Chem., 2020, 18,3012-3016
DOI: 10.1039/D0OB00155D, Communication
Alexander S. Henderson, John F. Bower, M. Carmen Galan
The practical synthesis of pseudo-enantiomeric carbohydrate-based NHC–Rh complexes bearing C1 or C3 sterically differentiated positions is reported. We show that steric bulk at either C1 or C3 leads to enantiotopic discrimination in the hydrosilylation of acetophenone.
