Chiral donor−acceptor azetines as powerful reactants for synthesis of amino acid derivatives

Doyle, Michael; Marichev, Kostiantyn; Dong, Kuiyong; Massey, Lynée; Deng, Yongming; De Angelis, Luca; Wang, Kan; Arman, Hadi (Nature Communications;, 2019-11-22)

Coupling reactions of amines and alcohols are of central importance for applications in chemistry and biology. These transformations typically involve the use of a reagent, activated as an electrophile, onto which nucleophile ...
Formal [4+4]-, [4+3]-, and [4+2]-Cycloaddition Reactions of Donor-Acceptor Cyclobutenes, Cyclopropenes and Siloxyalkynes Induced by Brønsted Acid Catalysis

Doyle, Michael; Zheng, Haifeng; Wang, Rui; Wang, Kan; Wherritt, Daniel J.; Arman, Hadi (Chemical Science;, 2021-02-18)

Brønsted acid catalyzed formal [4 + 4]-, [4 + 3]-, and [4 + 2]-cycloadditions of donor–acceptor cyclobutenes, cyclopropenes, and siloxyalkynes with benzopyrylium ions are reported. [4 + 2]-cyclization/deMayo-type ring-extension ...
