Journal ArticleDOI
A short and convenient way to produce the Taxol A-ring utilizing the Shapiro reaction
TL;DR: In this paper, a Taxol A-ring building block was converted in three simple steps to various arenesulfonylhydrazones and then to the target molecule with the Shapiro reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Mixed Tishchenko Reaction via Substituted 1,3-Dioxan-4-ols
TL;DR: In this article, a new method was developed for selective preparation of monoesters of 1,3-diols with this mixed Tishchenko reaction via 1, 3-dioxan-4-ols without any significant side products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monoalcoholates of 1,3-diols as effective catalysts in the Tishchenko esterification of 1,3-dioxan-4-ols
TL;DR: Alkali metal monoalcoholates of 1,3-diols can be used as very effective catalysts in the Tishchenko reaction of 4-hydroxy-1, 3-dioxanes to the corresponding monoesters of 1.3-Diols as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast Aldol-Tishchenko Reaction Utilizing 1,3-Diol Monoalcoholates as the Catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the aldol-Tishchenko reaction of enolizable aldehydes is used to prepare 1,3-diol monoesters, which are widely used as coalescing agents in the paint industry.
