RESUMO
Total synthesis of simonsol C has been achieved, focusing on the postdearomatization transformations. Our methodology integrates an efficient combination of dearomatization and Zn/AcOH reduction to introduce an allyl group, followed by oxo-Michael addition, to construct the 6/5/6 benzofuran skeleton. It offers a novel method for synthesizing allyl-containing quaternary carbon atoms in a straightforward manner.
RESUMO
A catalyst- and additive-free synthesis of 2-benzyl N-substituted anilines from (E)-2-arylidene-3-cyclohexenones and primary amines has been reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly through a sequential imine condensation-isoaromatization pathway, affording a series of synthetically useful aniline derivatives in acceptable to high yields. Mild reaction conditions, no requirement of metal catalysts, operational simplicity and the potential for scale-up production are some of the highlighted advantages of this transformation.
RESUMO
The inclusion complexation behavior, characterization and binding ability of naringenin with ß-cyclodextrin and its derivatives were investigated in both solution and the solid state by means of XRD, DSC, SEM, (1)H and 2D NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The results showed that the water solubility and thermal stability of naringenin were obviously increased in the inclusion complex with cyclodextrins. This satisfactory water solubility and high thermal stability of the naringenin/CD complexes will be potentially useful for their application as herbal medicines or healthcare products.
