Application

Propargyl alcohol has been used as a key starting material in the [4+2] cycloisomerization mediated synthesis of various phthalide derivatives.[1]
It can also be used to synthesize:
  • A variety of regioselective furan-3-carboxamides by reacting with 3-oxo amides using Ag2CO3 as a promoter.[2]
  • β-oxopropyl esters by reacting with carboxylic acids in the presence of (arene) (phosphine)ruthenium(II) complex as a catalyst.[3]

The temperature responsive PEGylated polyaspartamide derivative, denoted as mPEG-PAAHP, was synthesized by the click reaction. FTIR and ¹H NMR were adopted to characterize and confirm the chemical structures of the obtained mPEG-PAAHPs. The temperature responsive behavior investigated by transmittance and

Cross-dimerization of terminal arylacetylenes and terminal propargylic alcohols/amides has been achieved in the presence of a rhodium catalyst. This method features high chemo- and regioselectivities rendering convenient and atom economical access to functionalized enynes.

The gold(I)-catalyzed oxidative rearrangement of propargyl alcohols provides an efficient and selective route to 1,3-diketones under mild conditions. Pyridine-N-oxides were used as external oxidants with, different from related substrates, no alkylidenecycloalkanones or oxetan-3-ones formed as side-products.

The catalytic regioselective hydroboration of propargylic alcohols and ethers was investigated using NHC-CuCl. We observe that different NHC-CuCl complexes catalyze hydroborations of propargylic substrates with opposite regioselectivity. A 6-NHC-CuCl complex provides α-selectivity whereas β-selectivity is achieved using a 5-NHC-CuCl complex.

A straightforward synthesis of fully substituted β-carbolines via Brønsted acid promoted cyclizations of α-indolyl propargylic alcohols with nitrones is described. The use of nitrones bearing alkenyl or electron-rich aryl groups as the R(4) substituent dramatically switches the reaction pathway to

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
