Direct organocatalytic Mannich-type reactions of thioesters provide for the expedient and diastereoselective synthesis of protected beta-amino acids. A variety of thioesters were found to be reactive with different imines under mild conditions to provide beta-amino acids in good yields. This

The thiol-disulfide dynamic interchange reaction mediated by 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) was extensively studied. By this synthetic method sulfides can be prepared successfully within seconds in high yields at room temperature from stable and readily available disulfides and an alkylating agent. The

With the new chiral phosphine ligand DBUP, obtained from DBU and Ph(2)PCl, a remarkable anion effect was observed on the diastereoselective formation of the bischelated complexes [Ni(DBUP)(2)](X)(n) (X = Cl, Br, n = 2; X = NiCl(4), n = 1)

Reactions of salicylaldehydes with ethyl buta-2,3-dienoate or penta-3,4-dien-2-one catalyzed by a catalytic amount of potassium carbonate produce the corresponding 2 H-chromene products in moderate to good yields under mild conditions. A plausible reaction mechanism is discussed in the light of

A century ago Wilhelm Ostwald received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Although Ostwald was never significantly involved with the phenomenon of chirality, one of his discoveries, Ostwald ripening, is thought to be involved in a recently discovered method in which
