John F. Hartwig of the University of California, Berkeley showed (Nature 2012, 483, 70) that intramolecular C–H silylation of 1 selectively gave, after oxidation and acetylation, the bis acetate 2. Gong Chen of Pennsylvania State University coupled (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 7313) 3 with 4 to give the ether 5. M. Christina White of the University of Illinois effected (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 9721) selective oxidation of the taxane derivative 6 to the lactone 7. Most of the work on C–H functionalization has focused on the formation of C–C, C–O, and C–N bonds. Donald A. Watson of the University of Delaware developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 3663) conditions for the complementary conversion of an alkene 8 to the allyl silane 9, a powerful and versatile nucleophile. Kilian Muniz of ICIQ Tarragona oxidized (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 7242) the enyne 10 selectively to the amine 11. Phil S. Baran of Scripps/La Jolla devised (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 2547) a protocol for the OH-directed amination of 12 to 13. Professor White developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 2036) a related OH-directed amination of 14 to 15 that proceeded with retention of absolute configuration. Tom G. Driver of the University of Illinois, Chicago showed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 7262) that the aryl azide 16 could be cyclized directly to the amine, which was protected to give 17. As illustrated by the conversion of 18 to 20 devised (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2012, 354, 701) by Martin Klussmann of the Max-Planck-Institut, Mülheim, C–H functionalization can be accomplished by hydride abstraction followed by coupling of the resulting carbocation with a nucleophile. Olafs Daugulis of the University of Houston used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 5188) a Pd catalyst to couple 21 with 22 to give 23 with high diastereocontrol. Yoshiji Takemoto of Kyoto University cyclized (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 2763) the chloroformate 24 directly to the oxindole 25.

The association's most significant news is its change in name from PAPC to PAMLA to strengthen its identification with the Modem Language Association and to maintain the historic presence of classical languages. The association's ninety-third annual meeting will be held 3-5 November 1995 at the University of California, Santa Barbara, hosted by the College of Letters and Science with its Division of the Humanities, and cosponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center, the Department of Classics, the Comparative Literature Program, the Department of English, the Department of Germanic, Semitic, and Slavic Studies, and the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. Gerhart Hoffmeister, professor of German, is serving as chair of the local committee.
