"metal catalysed diboration of a,(β- unsaturated carbonyl compounds"This thesis describes an investigation to find an improved catalyst for the diboration of a,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds....
Asymmetric reduction of (4s)-(+)-carvone catalyzed by baker's yeast: a green method for monitoring the conversion based on liquid–liquid–liquid microextraction with polypropylene hollow fiber membranes AbstractThe α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound (4S)-(+)-carvone was selectively reduced to (1R,2R,4S)-iso-dihydrocarveol using baker's yeasts....
A green synthesis of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds from glyceraldehyde acetonide...Cs-impregnated zeolites (X and Y) was studied using the Knoevenagel condensation between glyceraldehyde acetonide and ethyl acetoacetate in order to produce the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound that is an important intermediate for fine chemicals....
Total synthesis of (±)-glabridin>An efficient formal synthesis of (±)-glabridin was accomplished in 10 steps from resorcinol using Raney Ni to reduce carbon–carbon double bonds in α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound as the key step....
