Abstract:
MCF-immobilized indaBOX-copper complexes, which show high enantioselectivities in asymmetric Diels-Alder and cyclopropanation reactions and have reactivities strongly affected by their environment, were prepared using various linker groups and silanol capping agents.

Carboxylic Acids to Methylesters: Alkylation using Diazomethane
Carboxylic acids react with diazomethane in an ether solvent via alkylation at the carboxylate oxygen atom to give methyl esters of the corresponding acid with excellent yields.
Radical Reactivity: Concentration Effects
In a radical reaction, the concentration of starting materials governs the selectivity of a radical. For example, the reaction between an alkyl halide and an alkene, in the presence of tin hydride and AIBN, begins with the generation of a tin radical. The generated radical then abstracts halogen from the alkyl halide, producing an alkyl radical. This alkyl radical can either react with tin hydride, yielding an alkane, or add to an alkene, generating a nitrile-stabilized radical, eventually...
