Abstract:
A three-component cascade reaction is described that provides concise access to 6H-benzo[c]chromenes via Rh(iii)-catalyzed annulation of aryl ketone O-acyloximes, quinones and acetone. Acetone acts as a co-solvent and as a reactant. This reaction shows high efficiency, atom- and step-economy, good substrate scope, excellent functional group compatibility and gives the products in good yields.

Transfer RNA Synthesis
Each of these chemical modifications is carried by a specific enzyme, post-transcription. All of these enzymes have unique base and site-specificity. Methylation, the most common chemical modification, is carried by at least nine different enzymes, with...
