A new guanidine-thiourea organocatalyst has been developed and applied as bifunctional organocatalyst in the Michael addition reaction of diethyl malonate to trans-β-nitrostyrene. Extensive DFT calculations, including solvent effects and dispersion corrections, as well as ab initio calculations provide a plausible description of the reaction mechanism.

We report the ligand enabled C(sp3)–H activation/olefination of free carboxylic acids in the γ-position. Through an intramolecular Michael-addition, δ-lactones are obtained as products. Two distinct ligand classes are identified that enable the challenging palladium-catalyzed activation of free carboxylic acids in the γ-position. The developed protocol features a wide range of acid substrates and olefin reaction partners and is shown to be applicable on a preparatively useful scale. Insights into the underlying reaction mechanism obtained through kinetic studies are reported.<br>

Various new chiral building blocks could easily be prepared from optically pure cis and trans ethyl 3-(1′,3′- dioxolan-4′-yl)aziridine-2-carboxylates. A stereochemically pure 1,3-dioxolan in the allyl position of an α-bromoacrylate induced a high (3R*,4′S*) selectivity in the Michael addition with an amine. After oxygen at the inducing centre was exchanged with nitrogen bearing a bulky substituent, the directing influence of this new group was examined. Solvent effects influencing the cis/trans ratio of aziridine formation are discussed.

AbstractThe synthesis of N,N-dimethyl arylpyranopyrimidinedione derivatives from aromatic aldehydes, N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethamine (NMSM) and 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid, in the presence of piperidine as a catalyst, is reported. The reaction mechanism involves a Knoevenagel condensation, followed by Michael addition and intramolecular O-cyclization reaction sequence. The synthesized compounds were docked with human kinesin Eg5 protein to calculate binding energy, inhibition constant and H-bond interaction. All the compounds show good binding affinity towards the protein, with significant docking score.
