A novel protocol to synthesize tert-butyl esters from benzyl cyanides and tert-butyl hydroperoxide has been successfully achieved. Csp3–H bond oxidation, C–CN bond cleavage and C–O bond formation proceeded smoothly in one pot under the metal-free condition.
An efficient and one‐step synthesis of indolizine‐1‐carbaldehydes from phenylpropiolaldehyde and pyridinium ylides was developed. The elegant methodology afforded functionalized indolizines with easy operation under mild reaction conditions and with wide substrate scope.
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.
