A palladium-catalyzed domino cyclization and carboxylation reaction for synthesis of a variety of carboxylic acids was developed, where chloroform was used as "carbon monoxide" source. The in situ generated neopentylpalladium species by Heck cyclization was efficiently trapped by dichlorocarbene to form a series of carboxylic acids. It was found that in this type of domino reaction CHCl3 is a convenient and safe alternation for CO gas.

An overview of chiral reagents that are used to assign the absolute configuration of particular classes of compounds using NMR spectroscopy is presented. The use of chiral derivatizing agents, chiral solvating agents, metal complexes, and liquid crystals is described.
“…Flash chromatography was performed using silica gel 60 (230-400 mesh). The methyl oxindole-3-acetates 3a-3d used in this study were prepared as previously described [8,11]. Compounds 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a, and 5f were synthesized [9,12] as indicated in Schemes 1 and 2.…”

“…Particularly promising γ-lactones were envisaged as intermediates. In this regard, the recently published synthesis of 2-(1,3-dialkyl-2-oxo-3-inolyl)acetic acids starting from methyl ester 2b [8] based on the reductive lactonization of the sodium salt of carboxylic γ-oxindolic acid derivatives [9]. First, we decided to investigate the synthetic scope and limitations of the N-and C-alkylation of methyl 2-(2-oxo-3-indolyl)acetates 3a-d (Scheme 1).…”
A series of 1,3a,8-alkylpyrrolidinoindolines have been synthesized. The scope and limitations of the alkylation of starting methyl oxindol-3acetates are explored employing electron-rich and electron-poor alkylating agents. Hydrolysis and reductive lactonization of the resulting carboxylic γ-oxindolic acid derivatives proceeds with good yields to afford 2-oxofuroindolines providing ready access to the pyrrolidinoindoline derivatives.
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.
