Polystyrene (PS) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer, but its very low recycling rate has motivated consideration of chemical conversion strategies to convert waste PS into value-added products. Oxidation methods have been studied, they typically generate benzoic acid, product with relatively market demand. Phenol higher volume that would be an appealing target, no currently exist for the phenol. The repeat unit in closely resembles cumene, primary feedstock produce phenol through Hock...

The photoredox-catalyzed α-aminoalkylcarboxylation of aryl allenes with CO2 and N,N-dimethylanilines is reported for the first time (26 examples, up to 96% yield). In case electron-deficient allenes, good regioselectivity was observed (up 94:6), exclusively generating kinetic products over thermodynamic products. This protocol a novel synthetic method highly functionalized β,γ-unsaturated γ-aminobutyric esters.

Described herein is a highly enantioselective route to β-quaternary δ-lactams by palladium/pyridine-dihydroisoquinoline (PyDHIQ)-catalyzed conjugate arylations. Notably, the effect of π-interactions on high enantioselectivity was elucidated DFT calculations and noncovalent interaction (NCI) analysis. The skeleton PyDHIQ ligand plays key role in formation attractive interactions with substrates an enantioselectivity-determining step. developed methodology successfully applied asymmetric...
