A cascade process for the straightforward one-pot conversion of β-ketonitriles into β-hydroxyamides is presented. The process, that proceeds in water employing the arene-ruthenium(II) complex [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)P(4-C6H4F)2Cl}] as catalyst in combination with sodium formate, involves the initial hydration of the β-ketonitrile substrates to generate the corresponding β-ketoamide intermediates, which

Chromiumn-Reformatsky and chromium-homoaldol reactions run Under neutral and mild reaction conditions. They are highly chemoselective, tolerant towards most common functional groups, and are not prone to retroaldol reactions. Initial studies directed to transfer these homogeneous chromium-mediated solution-phase reactions to solid phase are presented. The main objective was to develop a methodology to aid a combinatorial iterative strategy to polyols (polyketides) on solid phase. A general reactivity problem was observed with polystyrene based resins compared to the solution-phase reactions, independent if the electrophilic (aldehyde) or nucleophilic (bromide) end of the polyol chain was supported to the resin. A complicated penetration, or loss of the polar solvent environment after penetration into the resin, might be responsible for the reduced reactivity. Application of either a soluble polystyrene resin or a polystyrene resin with a polar polyethylene glycol tether resulted in improved yields. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Double hepatomesenteric artery a rare anatomical variant
A case of a "double hepatomesenteric artery", i.e. two persisting hepatic arteries arising from the superior mesenteric artery, is reported. Also observed was a lack of systematisation of the pancreaticoduodenal arteries. The variant, which does not appear to have been previously reported in the literature, was observed when dissecting the vessels of the duodenal bulb in a preserved male cadaver injected with neoprene latex. Its embryological origin, as well as the clinical, radiological (diagnostic or interventional) and surgical implications, are discussed.
