In this paper, a photo-on-demand in situ synthesis of carbonate esters with CHCl3 solutions containing a mixture of an aromatic or haloalkyl alcohol having relatively high acidity, and an organic base.
Abstract
Carbonate esters are utilized as solvents and reagents for C1 building blocks in organic synthesis. This study reports a novel photo-on-demand in situ synthesis of carbonate esters with CHCl3 solutions containing a mixture of an aromatic or haloalkyl alcohol having relatively high acidity, and an organic base. We found that the acid-base interaction of the alcohol and base in the CHCl3 solution plays a key role in enabling the photochemical reaction. This reaction allows practical syntheses of diphenyl carbonate derivatives, haloalkyl carbonates, and polycarbonates, which are important chemicals and materials in industry.

C2-Symmetric Copper(II) Complexes as Chiral Lewis Acids. Scope and Mechanism of Catalytic Enantioselective Aldol Additions of Enolsilanes to (Benzyloxy)acetaldehyde

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the reaction mechanism utilizing doubly labeled silylketene acetals and showed a significant positive nonlinear effect, proposed to arise from the selective formation of the [Cu((S,S)-Ph-pybox)((R,R)-Ph -pybox)](SbF6)2 2:1 ligand:metal complex, in which chelation of (benzyloxy)acetaldehyde to the metal center to form a square pyramidal copper intermediate accounts for the obser...
