    Enantioselective <i>N</i>‑Alkylation of Indoles via an Intermolecular Aza-Wacker-Type Reaction

    No full text
    The development of an intermolecular and enantioselective aza-Wacker reaction is described. Using indoles as the N-source and a selection of alkenols as the coupling partners selective β-hydride elimination toward the alcohol was achieved. This strategy preserves the newly formed stereocenter by preventing the formation of traditionally observed enamine products. Allylic and homoallylic alcohols with a variety of functional groups are compatible with the reaction in high enantioselectivity. Isotopic-labeling experiments support a syn amino-palladation mechanism for this new class of aza-Wacker reactions

    Asymmetric Aza-Wacker-Type Cyclization of <i>N</i>‑Ts Hydrazine-Tethered Tetrasubstituted Olefins: Synthesis of Pyrazolines Bearing One Quaternary or Two Vicinal Stereocenters

    No full text
    We have developed an asymmetric aza-Wacker-type cyclization of N-Ts hydrazine-tethered tetrasubstituted olefins, affording optically active pyrazolines bearing chiral tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters. This reaction is tolerant to a broad range of substrates under mild reaction conditions, giving the desired chiral products with high enantioselectivities. Generation of two vicinal stereocenters on the CC double bonds was also achieved with high selectivities, a process which has been rarely studied for Wacker-type reactions. A mechanistic study revealed that this aza-Wacker-type cyclization undergoes a syn-aminopalladation process. It was also found that for substrates bearing two linear alkyl substituents on the outer carbon atom of the olefin, both of which are larger than a methyl group, the alkyl substituent that is cis to the intranucleophilic group participates more readily in β-hydride elimination. When one of the two alkyl substituents on the outer carbon atom of the olefin is a methyl group, β-hydride elimination proceeds selectively at the methylene side, thus both diastereomers can be prepared via switching the configuration of the olefin. Furthermore, the product can be converted to a pharmaceutical compound in high yields over three steps

    Progress Towards the Syntheses of Bactobolin A and C4-epi-Bactobolin A Using a Sulfamate-Tethered Aza-Wacker Cyclization Strategy

    No full text
    We present a progress report towards Bactobolin A and C4-epi-Bactobolin A. Sulfamate-tethered aza-Wacker cyclization followed by a Tsuji-Wacker ketone synthesis furnishes a key tricyclic intermediate which we hypothesize can be elaborated into C4-epi-Bactobolin A. Epimerization of one of the stereocenters of this compound furnishes an intermediate which we hypothesize can be elaborated into Bactobolin A

    Five minutes with Gudrun Wacker: ‘The Chinese political elite perceive the EU as a successful example of regional integration that has created stability and peace in Europe’

    Dr. Gudrun Wacker, Senior Fellow at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs, argues that China does not see the EU as an influential geostrategic competitor. Nevertheless, the Chinese political elite considers the EU as a successful example of regional integration which has fostered peace and stability

    Wacker Siltronic Project

    No full text
    Wacker Siltronic has the majority of its plant capacity consumed at the beginning of a month with forecasted orders or good will orders from customers. However, there is typically some left over capacity that enables Wacker to meet emergency short notice orders from customers. The objective of the Inventory Simulation Program is to determine the minimum inventory requirements for Wacker to meet these random orders in a typical month
