In this article, an overview of the chemistry of enaminones and related compounds containing the structural unit N-CaC-Z (Za COR, CO2R, CN, NO2, S O 2Ar, etc.).
Abstract
Efforts in our laboratories to devise a general approach to the synthesis of alkaloids focus on the versatile reactivity of enaminones and related compounds containing the structural unit N-CaC-Z (Za COR, CO2R, CN, NO2 ,S O 2Ar, etc.). This lecture presents an overview of our research with these useful building blocks. Themes to be elaborated include chemo- selectivity and diastereoselectivity in reactions of enaminones, and the challenge of controlling absolute stereochemistry.

O- and N-Heterocycles Synthesis

TL;DR: The phosphorus pentasulfide remained as the key reagent from the 2nd half of the nineteenth century until the beginning of systematic study of the utilization of Lawesson's reagent in 1978.

Electronic structures, intramolecular hydrogen bond interaction, and aromaticity of substituted 4-amino-3-penten-2-one in ground and electronic excited state

TL;DR: In this paper, the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) was used to evaluate the hydrogen bond strength, molecular struc- ture, and several well-established indices of aromaticity for 4-amino-3-penten-2-one and its 20 derivatives.
