3-Methylthiophene is an organosulfur compound with the formula CH 3 C 4 H 3 S. It is a colorless, flammable liquid. It can be produced by sulfidation of 2-methylsuccinate. [1] Like its isomer 2-methylthiophene, its commercial synthesis involvess vapor-phase dehydrogenation of
Organotrifluoroborates are tolerant of air and moisture [1] and are easy to handle and purify. [2] They are often used in organic synthesis as alternatives to boronic acids (RB(OH) 2 ), boronate esters (RB(OR′) 2 ), and organoboranes (R 3 B), particularly for Suzuki-Miyaura coupling .
Formyl functional group is shown in blue. Formylation refers to any chemical processes in which a compound is functionalized with a formyl group (-CH=O). In organic chemistry, the term is most commonly used with regards to aromatic compounds (for example the conversion of benzene to benzaldehyde in the Gattermann–Koch reaction).
Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
The general structure of a boronic acid, where R is a substituent. A boronic acid is an organic compound related to boric acid (B(OH) 3) in which one of the three hydroxyl groups (−OH) is replaced by an alkyl or aryl group (represented by R in the general formula R−B(OH) 2). [1]
Hydrolysis then results in the boronic acid (R 2 BOH). [5] Trialkylborates [(RO) 3 B] or trialkoxyboroxine [(ROBO) 3] can be reduced to borinic acid by us of a Grignard reagent. Grignard reagents can also reduce a boronic ester [RB(OR') 2] to a borinic ester. [5] Bu 3 B + N2CHCOR → BuCH=C(R)OBBu 2 Bu 3 B + CH2=CHCOCH 3 → BuCH 2 CH=C(CH 3)OBBu 2
4-Formylphenyl boronic acid crystallizes in colorless needles [2] or is obtained as an odorless, whitish powder, which dissolves little in cold but better in hot water. The compound is quite stable [4] and readily forms dimers and cyclic trimeric anhydrides, which complicate purification and tend to protodeboronize, a secondary reaction that occurs frequently in the Suzuki coupling, with ...
Removal of the BOC group in amino acids can be accomplished with strong acids such as trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane, or with HCl in methanol. [2] [3] [4] A complication may be the tendency of the t-butyl cation intermediate to alkylate other nucleophiles; scavengers such as anisole or thioanisole may be used.
