The biomimetic synthesis of the advanced model compound of chloropupukeananin has been achieved. The present synthesis features an unexpected enantiomer-differentiating Diels-Alder/carbonyl-ene cascade under high-pressure conditions and a base-promoted migration of the salicyl group.
Bisaminal cyclization in the zoanthamine alkaloid system was strongly affected by the stereochemistry of the C4 methyl. While cyclization of the (4S)-methyl precursor gave only a bisaminal compound, cyclization of the (4R)-methyl isomer produced both spiroketal and bisaminal products.
We have used surface photo-absorption (SPA) to investigate the formation of negative electron affinity (NEA) surfaces on p-GaAs during the Yo-Yo method, under an alternating supply of Cs and O2. The SPA spectra showed that the surface during the first Cs step was different from those in the following Cs and O2 steps. This suggests that the surface structure did not change after the initial surface was formed, indicating that there could be two Cs adsorption sites on the GaAs surface, which is different from previously proposed models.
Ausgehend vom Ketoaldehyd (I) wird in einer vielstufigen Synthese über das Cyclopentenon (II) und das Cyclopentanon (III) das Bicyclooctenon (IV) erhalten.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
