Abstract Several ketone N-phenylsemicarbazones were electrooxidized in the presence of potassium iodide and a base using methanol as the solvent to give nearly commensurate amounts of methyl N-phenylcarbamate and the corresponding dimethyl acetals. Continuous evolution of gaseous nitrogen was observed from the anolyte during the electrooxidation. The reactions were carried out under very mild reaction

Homologation of alkyl acetates, alkyl ethers, acetals, and ketals was accomplished via formal insertion of diazo esters into carbon–carbon σ-bonds. The combined Lewis acid InI3 with Me3SiBr catalyzed the homologation of alkyl acetates and alkyl ethers. That of acetals and ketals was catalyzed solely by the use of InBr3. The key point of the homologation mechanism is that the indium-based Lewis acids

pyrrolidine-based organocatalysts with a bulky substituent at C2 were synthesized from chiral imines derivedfrom (R)-glyceraldehyde acetonide by diastereoselective allylation followed by a sequential hydrozirconation/iodination reaction. The new compounds were found to be effective organocatalysts for the Michael addition of aldehydes to nitroolefins and enantioselectivities up to 85% ee were achieved
Mesityl derivatives of the unknown dibenzopentalene isomer dibenzo[a,f]pentalene were synthesized. The molecular geometry and physicalproperties of dibenzo[a,f]pentalene were investigated. Dibenzo[a,f]pentalene combines a large antiaromatic and appreciable singlet open-shell character, properties not shared by well-known isomer dibenzo[a,e]pentalene.
