  • The use of the Diels-Alder reaction in asymmetric synthesis

    Creator:
    Dei Rossi, Dale Raymond
    Abstract:
    The Diels-Alder reaction represents a promising tool for use in asymmetric synthesis. The reaction involves a rigid transition state that facilitates the formation of one diastereomeric transition state and is reversible. This satisfies two necessary criteria for asymmetric synthesis. The Diels-Alder reactions of 1,l-dialkylspiro[2.4]-4,6- heptadienes with maleic anhydride and p-benzoquinone...

  • Expanding the scope of a Diels-Alder approach to biaryl synthesis

    Creator:
    Schwartz, Johanna Perkins
    Abstract:
    A Diels-Alder approach to biaryls (DAB) has been applied towards the synthesis of highly substituted, programmable biaryl templates. Tri- and tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls can be produced in just three to four steps from commercially available materials utilizing the Diels-Alder [4+2] cycloaddition. The methods described herein will illustrate the ability of mono...

  • A Diels-Alder approach to biaryl synthesis

    Creator:
    Ashburn, Bradley O.
    Abstract:
    An expedient approach to the synthesis of a wide range of highly programmable biaryl templates has been accomplished. Utilizing the Diels-Alder [4+2] cycloaddition, a wide range of tri- and tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls have been synthesized in only three to four steps from commercially available materials. We have successfully synthesized entire classes...
