  2. Chemical synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_synthesis

    For example, the synthesis of paracetamol typically requires three separate reactions. Divergent synthesis starts with a common intermediate, which branches into multiple final products through distinct reaction pathways. Convergent synthesis synthesis involves the combination of multiple intermediates synthesized independently to create a ...

  3. Combinatorial chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_chemistry

    In the synthesis of a sublibrary the support is not divided and only one amino acid is coupled to the whole sample. As a result, one position is really occupied by the same amino acid in all components. For example, in the B2 sublibrary position 2 is occupied by the "yellow" amino acid in all the nine components.

  4. Chan–Lam coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chan–Lam_coupling

    Reaction example of Chan–Lam coupling. Compound 1, a pyrrole, is coupled with aryl boronic acid, 2, to afford product 3, which is then carried forward to the target 4. The nitrile group of 2 does not poison the catalyst. Pyridine is the ligand used for the reaction. Although the reaction requires three days, it was carried out at room ...

  5. Ugi reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ugi_reaction

    The Ugi reaction has been applied in combination with an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction [16] in an extended multistep reaction. A reaction in its own right is the Ugi–Smiles reaction with the carboxylic acid component replaced by a phenol. In this reaction the Mumm rearrangement in the final step is replaced by the Smiles rearrangement. [17]

  6. McMurry reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMurry_reaction

    In another example, the Nicolaou's total synthesis of Taxol uses this reaction, although coupling stops with the formation of a cis-diol, rather than an olefin. Optimized procedures employ the dimethoxyethane complex of TiCl 3 in combination with the Zn(Cu). The first porphyrin isomer, porphycene, was synthesised by McMurry coupling. [8]

  7. Henry reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_reaction

    The first example of an enantioselective nitroaldol reaction was reported in 1992 using Shibasaki catalysts. [11] One of the most frequently employed methods for inducing enantio- or diastereoselectivity in the Henry reaction is the use of chiral metal catalysts, in which the nitro group and carbonyl oxygen coordinate to a metal that is bound ...

  8. Kumada coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kumada_coupling

    In organic chemistry, the Kumada coupling is a type of cross coupling reaction, useful for generating carbon–carbon bonds by the reaction of a Grignard reagent and an organic halide. The procedure uses transition metal catalysts, typically nickel or palladium, to couple a combination of two alkyl, aryl or vinyl groups.

  9. Simmons–Smith reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simmons–Smith_reaction

    The reaction can also be quenched with pyridine, which will scavenge ZnI 2 and excess reagents. [24] Methylation of heteroatoms is also observed in the Simmons–Smith reaction due to the electrophilicity of the zinc carbenoids. For example, the use of excess reagent for long reaction times almost always leads to the methylation of alcohols. [25]
