For the first time B-podands have been studied as an efficient and powerful catalysts in the ring opening of epoxides with azide anion in water. The reaction afforded the corresponding 1,2-azidoalcohols with high regioselectivity under mild reaction conditions and in a highly atom economic fashion.
An environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of vicinal nitrohydrins via the regioselective ring opening reaction of epoxides with nitrite anion using silica-bound 3-{2-[poly(ethylene glycol)]ethyl}-substituted 1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide as an effective heterogeneous phase transfer catalyst was described. Short reaction time, high yield of products, simple work-up procedure, and recyclability of the catalyst were some of the […]
In this research, we develop and prepare some of the polymers based on polythioesters using cetrimide as an ionic liquid and phase transfer catalyst. All of the polymers were prepared through the reaction of 5,5′-methylenebis (1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol) with five types of diacyl chloride derivatives in the presence of cetrimide as phase transfer catalyst in the mixture […]
