The organocatalytic asymmetric Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction produces a
significant carbon–carbon bond formation that involves the addition of α, β-unsaturated …

A copper-catalyzed protocol for the construction of various 2-aryl (alkyl)-3-acylquinolines or
3-arylquinolines using readily available anthranils and 1, 3-diketones or aldehydes as …

The organocatalytic asymmetric Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction of isatin derivatives
with various vinyl sulfones is disclosed. Chiral sulfone-containing 3-hydroxyoxindoles were …

Solvent-dependent chemoselective Morita–Baylis–Hillman-type self-cyclization and
dimerization of o-alkenyl arylisocyanides were developed. These chemodivergent reactions …

Acylquinolines possess widespread applications in functional chemicals. However, the
convenient and selective synthesis of such important substructures has to date remained a …

Chemoselectivity is an important issue frequently encountered while working over labile
precursors. Carbonyl compounds with a heteroatom at the β carbon are sensitive precursors …

Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction, typically catalyzed by a Lewis base, is a popular and
useful method for C–C bond formation. Unfortunately, it is limited by a slow reaction rate and …

Abstract An asymmetric intermolecular Rauhut‐Currier reaction of α′‐alkylidene 2‐
cyclohexenones and (7‐aza) isatinylidene malononitriles is realized under the double …

Carbohydrate‐based benzylidene acetals undergo reductive ring opening. 1‐β‐O‐Acyl
glucoside conjugates of phenylacetic acids have been synthesized, and their acyl migration …

Abstract Intramolecular Rauhut‐Currier (IRC) reaction is an atom‐economical way of making
carbocyclic and heterocyclic rings. However, its sensitivity towards electronic and steric …
