Metal promoted vinylcyclopropane–cyclopentene rearrangements: Reactions ripe for mechanism-based catalyst design

TL;DR: In this article, experimental and theoretical data relevant to the mechanisms of transition metal promoted vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangements are described and compared to analogous reactions not involving transition metals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of the Ni(0)-catalyzed vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement.

TL;DR: It is postulated that bulky carbene ligands facilitate formation of the active catalyst species in the Ni(0)-N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement that involves a mutistep oxidative addition/haptotropic shift/reductive elimination pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep insight into the minor fraction of virgin olive oil by using LC-MS and GC-MS multi-class methodologies.

TL;DR: LC-MS and GC-MS platforms were used to develop two methods capable of simultaneously determine more than 40 compounds belonging to different VOO minor chemical classes within a single run, greatly increases throughput and reduces cost, while avoiding the complexity and redundancy of single-chemical class determinations.
Journal ArticleDOI

In-depth assessment of analytical methods for olive oil purity, safety, and quality characterization.

TL;DR: This paper evaluates the performance of the current analytical methods that are used in olive oil for determining fatty acids, triacylglycerols, mono- and diacyl Glycerol, waxes, sterols, alkyl esters, erythrodiol and uvaol, tocopherols, pigments, volatiles, and phenols.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomimetic Total Synthesis of Santalin Y

TL;DR: This work provides rapid access to santalin Y and clarifies its biosynthetic relationship with other colorants isolated from red sandalwood and generates the unique oxafenestrane framework of the target molecule and sets its five stereocenters in one operation.
