Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of Carboxylic Acids in Asymmetric Organocatalysis
Mattia Riccardo Monaco,Belen Poladura,Miriam Diaz de Los Bernardos,Markus Leutzsch,Richard Goddard,Benjamin List +5 more
TL;DR: This work proposes the heterodimeric association of carboxylic acids with chiral phosphoric acid catalysts as a new activation principle for organocatalysis and applies this principle in a general and highly enantioselective catalytic aziridine-opening reaction with carboxYlic acids as nucleophiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct aldol reactions catalyzed by a heterogeneous guanidinium salt/proline system under solvent-free conditions.
Angel Martinez‐Castaneda,Belen Poladura,Humberto Rodriguez‐Solla,Carmen Concellon,Vicente del Amo +4 more
TL;DR: The combined activity of (S)-proline and an achiral cocatalyst (a TBD-derived guanidinium salt) allow direct aldol reactions to be carried out with high diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivities under solvent-free conditions with a rather simple reaction setup where stirring is not required.
Journal ArticleDOI
General Metal-Free Baeyer–Villiger-Type Synthesis of Vinyl Acetates
Belen Poladura,Angel Martinez‐Castaneda,Humberto Rodriguez‐Solla,Ricardo Llavona,Carmen Concellon,Vicente del Amo +5 more
TL;DR: Oxone, a cheap, stable, and nonhazardous oxidizing reagent, transforms α,β-unsaturated ketones of defined stereochemistry into their corresponding vinyl acetates through a Baeyer-Villiger reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly enantioselective proline-catalysed direct aldol reaction of chloroacetone and aromatic aldehydes.
Angel Martinez‐Castaneda,Belen Poladura,Humberto Rodriguez‐Solla,Carmen Concellon,Vicente del Amo +4 more
Journal ArticleDOI
TBD-catalyzed α-sulfenylation of cyclic ketones: desymmetrization of 4-substituted cyclohexanones
Belen Poladura,Angel Martinez‐Castaneda,Humberto Rodriguez‐Solla,Carmen Concellon,Vicente del Amo +4 more
TL;DR: A low loading of triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) catalyzes the α-sulfenylation reaction of ketones employing tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTDS) as electrophilic reagent as discussed by the authors.
