environmentally-benign aqueoussolution due to the highly hydrophilic hydroxyl and amino functional groups of chitosan. The large size of the microsphere structure can greatly facilitate separation and recycling of the expensive and toxic palladiumcatalysts from the reaction mixture and the recovered Pd/PCMS catalyst can preserve the catalytic activity and selectivity for the Heck reaction without any observable

The stereospecific Fe-catalyzed arylation of enol tosylates was reported. Various tri- or tetrasubstituted Z or E-enol tosylates of β-keto esters were arylated using common and Knochel-type Grignard reagents with complete stereofidelity. The precursors for Z/E-zimelidine, tamoxifen and other bioactive compounds were facilely prepared without precious and toxic transition metals.
Starting from commercially available ketones, a reproducible and reliable strategy for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted nitroalkenes was successfully developed, using a two-step procedure; the HWE olefination of the ketone to form the corresponding α,β-unsaturated esters is followed by a nitration reaction to introduce the nitro group in the α position of the ester group. The enantioselective organocatalytic
