Enantioselective Synthesis of (S)‐trans‐γ‐Butenynyl γ‐Aminobutyric Acid (GABA).
TL;DR: In this article, the enantioselective synthesis of GABA by phthalimide displacement of the (R)-alcohol generated from the acetal 3 is reported, and hydride reductions of the pentadiynylic ether 3 to the trans-enyne 5 are discussed.
Patent
Process for the synthesis of conjugated polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a process for the continuous production of conjugated polymers is described, and the processes provide excellent control over reaction parameters and are highly reproducible, and they find use in heterojunction devices.
Book ChapterDOI
CHAPTER 7:Poly(phenylenevinylene)s
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the preparation methods is provided along with example experimental procedures for the most popular synthetic routes in this article, along with a comparison of the most commonly used synthetic routes and the most common synthetic routes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the azaspiro oxo-urethane (4), readily available from naphthalene, is reduced to the amino-alcohol whose diacetate (6), the structure of which was determined by X-ray crystallography, undergoes acetate elimination in refluxing toluene to yield the N-acetylazaspiroundecene (7).
