Journal ArticleDOI
Designer Lewis acids for selective organic synthesis
TL;DR: An excellent candidate as a proton substitute in man-made organic reactions is a Lewis acid as mentioned in this paper, which could be utilized as an effective tool for chemical reactions, by harnessing the high reactivity of the metal atom towards a variety of functional groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Alkylation of Ketones with a Bulky Aluminum Reagent-the THF-TBSOTf System
Journal ArticleDOI
Dramatic Rate Enhancement by Ultrasonic Irradiation in Liquid-Liquid Phase-Transfer Catalytic Reactions
Journal ArticleDOI
Unique synthetic utility of BF(3).OEt(2) in the highly diastereoselective reduction of hydroxy carbonyl and dicarbonyl substrates
TL;DR: A new aspect of commonly used BF(3).OEt(2) has been illuminated by successfully demonstrating the unique but highly stereoselective reactions of hydroxy carbonyl and dicarbonyl substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Desymmetrizing Asymmetric Ring Expansion of Cyclohexanones with α-Diazoacetates Catalyzed by Chiral Aluminum Lewis Acid.
TL;DR: In this paper, the catalyst controls the process to give seven-membered rings with an all-carbon quaternary center, which are then used for the construction of the ring.
