Abstract
The acid-catalyzed ring-opening of methyl (+)-(1'R, 2R) and (-)-(1'R, 2S)-1-(2-phenylethanol) aziridine-2-carboxylates (1) and (2) lead quantitatively to the corresponding 2(S)-(-)-chloro-3-[2'-hydroxy-1'(R)-phenyl-ethylamino] propionic acid methyl ester (3) and 2(R)-(-)-chloro-3-[2'-hydroxy-1'(R)-phenyl-ethylamino] propionic acid methyl ester (4) hydrochlorides.

Flash Vacuum Pyrolysis of 2,5-Diphenyloxazole
by Mircea D. Banciu, Daniela Istrati, Dan Mihaiescu and Constantin Draghici
Molecules 2000, 5(8), 1004-1010; https://doi.org/10.3390/50801004 - 09 Aug 2000

Abstract
FVP of the title oxazole (1) at 1000oC and 0.5 mm Hg afforded a complex reaction mixture containing benzonitrile, phenylacetonitrile, biphenyl, diphenylmethane, fluorene, o-benzylbenzonitrile (major product, 22%), phenanthrene, anthracene, 9,10-anthraquinone, 2-phenylindole and 3-phenylindole. A radical and carbene mechanism was suggested [...] Read more.
FVP of the title oxazole (1) at 1000oC and 0.5 mm Hg afforded a complex reaction mixture containing benzonitrile, phenylacetonitrile, biphenyl, diphenylmethane, fluorene, o-benzylbenzonitrile (major product, 22%), phenanthrene, anthracene, 9,10-anthraquinone, 2-phenylindole and 3-phenylindole. A radical and carbene mechanism was suggested in order to rationalize the formation of the reaction products. Full article

2-Substituted-1,3,2-dithioborolans as Chiral Lewis Acid Catalysts
by Joshua Howarth and Paul Glynn
Molecules 2000, 5(8), 1011-1013; https://doi.org/10.3390/50801011 - 15 Aug 2000
Viewed by 6835
Abstract
1,3,2-Dithioborolans substituted at the 2-position with various homochiral groups can act as chiral Lewis acids in the Diels-Alder reaction between crotonaldehyde or methacrolein with cyclopentadiene. The endo:exo selectivities obtained were good although the enantiomeric excesses were low to moderate. Full article

Abstract
Soluble polymer-supported chemistry is a technology that allows the blending of the benefits of polymer-supported synthesis and solution-phase chemistry. Herein, we describe our recent efforts in this area targeted at exploring the scope of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as the matrix. Specifically we describe [...] Read more.
Soluble polymer-supported chemistry is a technology that allows the blending of the benefits of polymer-supported synthesis and solution-phase chemistry. Herein, we describe our recent efforts in this area targeted at exploring the scope of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as the matrix. Specifically we describe the use of PEG as a support for triphenyl phosphine and for the Stille reaction. Full article
