TL;DR: In the presence of palladium(II) chloride, 2-bromoanilines readily react with the methyl vinyl ketone and the ethyl acrylate to produce vinylogous arylamino ketones and esters as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: In the presence of palladium(II) chloride, 2-bromoanilines readily react with the methyl vinyl ketone and the ethyl acrylate to produce vinylogous arylamino ketones and esters. A palladium(0)-assisted cyclization of the arylamino ketones and the esters leads to a formation of 3-substituted indoles.

TL;DR: In this article, a copper chromite catalyst was used for the hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde, methyl vinyl ketone and methacrolein, and the results showed that the high polarization of these molecules led mostly to a 1,4 addition process, whereas 1,2-hydrogenation reactions were observed with dienes.

TL;DR: The tetraene 2 is a versatile reagent for regioselective pairwise cycloadditions as discussed by the authors, and it can be used for both the 1-dimethoxymethyl group in derivatives 2 and 6 of 2,3,5,6-tetramethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes.
Abstract: The syntheses of 2,3-dimethylidene- and 2,3,5,6-tetramethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes substituted in position C(1) are reported. The 1-dimethoxymethyl group in derivatives 2 and 6 controls the regioselectivity of the Lewis-acid-catalyzed Diels-Alder additions with methyl vinyl ketone and butynone. For the EtAlCl2-catalyzed addition of methyl vinyl ketone to 6, the regioselectivity can be reversed by a small solvent modification. The tetraene 2 is a versatile reagent for regioselective ‘tandem’ cycloadditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a total synthesis of (+)-pisiferol (1) has been accomplished by utilising an optically active Wieland-Miescher ketone analogue (S)-(+)-(6) bearing an angular protected hydroxymethyl group, as the key intermediate.
Abstract: A total synthesis of (+)-pisiferol (1) has been accomplished by utilising an optically active Wieland–Miescher ketone analogue (S)-(+)-(6) bearing an angular protected hydroxymethyl group, as the key intermediate. Reductive methylation of the monoacetal (7) of compound (6), followed by Huang–Minlon reduction, gives the trans-decalone acetal (9). Construction of the remaining carbocycle leading to the dodecahydrophenanthrenone (14) is achieved through five sequential reactions (deprotection, methoxycarbonylation, Michael addition with methyl vinyl ketone, demethoxycarbonylation, and intramolecular aldol cyclisation). After introduction of the 2-hydroxypropan-2-yl side-chain, dehydration followed by base-catalysed aromatisation affords pisiferol methoxymethyl ether (18). Finally, hydrolysis furnishes (+)-pisiferol (1).

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for the synthesis of α, β-unsaturated compounds was developed by using methanol as a methylenylating agent, which was applied to the conversion of acetone to methyl vinyl ketone and that of methyl propionate to methyl methacrylate.
Abstract: A novel method for the synthesis of α, β-unsaturated compounds was developed by using methanol as a methylenylating agent. Methyl or methylene group at α-position of saturated ketones, esters or nitriles is converted into vinyl group by the addition of methanol over metal ion containing magnesium oxide catalysts, M-MgO [M=Cr(III), Fe(III), Al(III), Mn(II), Ni(II), Cu(II)]. The most promising application of this method is demonstrated by the selective synthesis of acrylonitrile from acetonitrile and methanol over Cr-MgO catalyst. Selectivity to acrylonitrile of more than 95% is attained at 10% conversion of acetonitrile and no deactivation of the catalyst is observed. The method was also applied to the conversion of acetone to methyl vinyl ketone and that of methyl propionate to methyl methacrylate. It was found that the step determining the rate of reaction was the abstraction of α-hydrogen from substrates by surface basic sites. Reaction mechanism and role of added metal ion are discussed.

TL;DR: The structure of the clavularins A and B were shown to be cycloheptenone derivatives (2a and B) in this paper, using the Michael reaction of the lithium dienolate anion with trimethylsilyl -substituted methyl vinyl ketone.
Abstract: (±)- Clavularin B (2b) was prepared from cyclohepta-2,6-dienone (4) via a Michael reaction of the lithium dienolate anion (5a) with the trimethylsilyl -substituted methyl vinyl ketone (11). The structures of the clavularins A and B were thus unambiguously established as cycloheptenone derivatives (2a) and (2b). The Mukaiyama reaction between the silyl dienol ether (5b) and but-3-en-2-one gave 8-acetyl-4- methylbicyclo[3.2.2]nonan-6-one (9).

TL;DR: In this paper, copolymerization of methyl vinyl ketone (M1) with acrylamide (M2) without catalyst was studied in tetrahydrofuran below room temperature.
Abstract: Copolymerizabilities of methyl vinyl ketone(M1) with acrylamide(M2) without catalyst were studied in tetrahydrofuran below room temperature.Under several conditions of light, the monom er reactivity ratios were obtained as follows; r1=0.70 and r2=0.79 for irradiation under room light; r1 =O.78 and r2=0.97 for unirradiation under light; r1=1.28 and r2=1.23 for irradiation under UV light. The presence of oxygen gas in the copolymerization system tends to decrease the rate of copolymerization(Rp). Meanwhile, it is interesting that Rp in unirradiated systems indicated higher value than these in the irradiated system with room light or UV light. These Rp indicated the maximum values at about 50 mol% in monomer feed, and the each monomer was not homopolymerized. These phenomena might be explained by the interaction between carbonyl group and carbamoyl group.

TL;DR: In this article, a cis-structure-containing polyacetylene is prepared by, for example, a method comprising polymerizing acetylene at a relatively low reaction temperature in the presence of, e.g., a Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain a partially cyclized polyacetylene excellent in durability, stability, etc., and suitable as an electrode or the like, by reacting by heating polyacetylene containing a cis structure with a carbonyl group-containing unsaturated compound. CONSTITUTION:A cis-structure-containing polyacetylene is prepared by, for example, a method comprising polymerizing acetylene at a relatively low reaction temperature in the presence of, e.g., a Ziegler-Natta catalyst. This polyacetylene is reacted with a carbonyl group-containing unsaturated compound at 100-500 deg.C according to the reaction formula to obtain a partially cyclized polyacetylene. Examples of the carbonyl group-containing unsaturated compounds which can be used include partially oxidized polyacetylene obtained by exposing polyacetylene to an oxidizing atmosphere or immersing polyacetylene in an oxidizing liquid; unsaturated ketones (e.g., methyl vinyl ketone); and unsaturated aldehydes (e.g., acrolein).

TL;DR: In this article, an investigation of the recovery efficiencies of selected principal organic hazardous constituents (POHCs) from the Volatile Organic Sampling Train (VOST) under laboratory conditions is described.
Abstract: The report describes an investigation of the recovery efficiencies of selected principal organic hazardous constituents (POHCs) from the Volatile Organic Sampling Train (VOST) under laboratory conditions. The compounds included: vinyl chloride, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene, benzene, toluene, perchloroethylene, monochlorobenzene, methyl vinyl ketone, tetrahydrofuran, and chloroform. An inhouse organic vapor generation system was used to produce atmospheres with pre-determined concentrations of the POHCs. These were sampled by the VOST. The sampling traps were desorbed and analyzed by GC/FID. The predetermined total nanograms of POHCs were compared to the total nanograms found by the analyses. Excluding vinyl chloride and methyl vinyl ketone, the overall mean percent recovery for the individual compounds ranged from 81.0 to 118.1%.
