A novel method for palladium-catalyzed stereoselective formation of alpha-O-glycosides has been developed. This strategy relies on the palladium-biaryl phosphine catalyst-glycal donor complexation to control the anomeric selectivity. It does not depend on the nature of the protecting groups on the

A crucial polymer intermediate, 4-[1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclopentyl]-phenol (bisphenol CP), was developed from dicyclopentadiene (DCPD), a key byproduct of the C5 fraction in petrochemicals. On the basis of bisphenol CP, a diamine, 4,4'-((cyclopentane-1,1-diylbis(4,1-phenylene))bis(oxy))-dianiline (cyclopentyl diamine; CPDA) was subsequently obtained through a nucleophilic substitution
