Journal ArticleDOI
Aqueous Enantioselective Organocatalytic Diels−Alder Reactions Employing Hydrazide Catalysts. A New Scaffold for Organic Acceleration
Mathieu Lemay,William W. Ogilvie +1 more
TL;DR: Kinetic evidence suggests the reaction involves rapid iminium formation and the hydrazide is employed as the catalytic machinery in a compact camphor-derived framework that imparts facial selectivity to the cycloadditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of medium-sized ring ethers from thionolactones. Applications to polyether synthesis
Kyriacos C. Nicolaou,D. G. Mcgarry,Patricia K. Somers,B. H. Kim,William W. Ogilvie,G. Yiannikouros,C. V. C. Prasad,C. A. Veale,Richard R. Hark +8 more
TL;DR: A variety of medium-sized thionolactones have been prepared and condensed with nucleophiles giving alkylated thioacetals upon quenching with methyl iodide as mentioned in this paper.

Peptidomimetic inhibitors of the human cytomegalovirus protease
TL;DR: A compound of formula (I) is defined as a compound of I, where X is CF3, C2F5, 2-benzothiazole, CF2CONHR6, CONHR6-R7, wherein R6 is CH2C6H5, CH2(4-iodophenyl), CH3, (CH2)2OCH2C 6H5 or 7-CH3; R1 is H, CH3 or CH2CH3, R2 is CH 2CONH2, CH 2-THIA
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms before Reactions: A Mechanistic Approach to the Organic Chemistry Curriculum Based on Patterns of Electron Flow
TL;DR: A significant redesign of the introductory organic chemistry curriculum at the University of Southern California is described in this paper, where the reaction mechanisms and the electron-pushing formalism are taught before students have learned a single reaction.
