Application of microwave dielectric loss heating effects for the rapid and convenient synthesis of coordination compounds

TL;DR: A wide range of coordination compounds of substitutionally-inert transition metal ions have been rapidly and conveniently synthesized using microwave dielectric loss heating effects as discussed by the authors, which can sustain temperatures up to 250°C and pressures up to 80 atm.

New Synthetic Method of Aromatic Ethers Under Microwave Irradiation in Dry Media

TL;DR: Under microwave irradiation, phenols react remarkably fast with a number of primary alkyl halides to give aromatic ethers as mentioned in this paper, which is a very interesting property of phenols.
Journal ArticleDOI

First synthesis of N-(3-carboxylpropyl)-5-amino-2-hydroxy-3- tridecyl-1,4-benzoquinone, an unusual quinone isolated from Embelia ribes.

TL;DR: The key steps are a microwave-assisted combined Mitsunobu reaction-Claisen rearrangement to introduce the alkyl side chain into 2,5-dimethoxyphenol, followed by alkene reduction, oxidation to the quinone, and sequential displacement of the methoxy groups with hydroxide and GABA tert-butyl ester.

The reaction of anthracene with maleic and fumaric acid and their derivatives and with citraconic anhydride and mesaconic acid.

TL;DR: The initial precipitate of long dense needles had become contaminated by a small superficial layer of fluffy crystalline balls, apparently containing the saturated dioltrione (XXIV) and after two further recrystallizations from alcohol melted at 23!-238’.
