Synthetic Route of C7H5BrOIn 2019 ,《Enantioselective Gold-Catalyzed Pictet-Spengler Reaction》 was published in Organic Letters. The article was written by Glinsky-Olivier, Nicolas; Yang, Shengwen; Retailleau, Pascal; Gandon, Vincent; Guinchard, Xavier. The article contains the following contents:
Cationic chiral Au(I) complexes catalyze asym. Pictet-Spengler reactions between tryptamines and arylaldehydes. The resulting tetrahydro-β-carbolines I (R1 = H, 5-Me, 5-OMe; R2 = Allyl, Bn, CH2Mes, etc.; R3 = Ph, 4-Et-C6H4, 2-CN-C6H4, 3ClC6H4, etc.)are obtained with wide functional group tolerance in high yield and with high enantioselectivities (up to 95%). Aldehydes bearing polar or protic functions are well tolerated. The reaction features a hitherto unknown C2-auration of the indole as the key step, supported by d. functional theory calculations The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of o-Bromobenzaldehyde(cas: 6630-33-7Synthetic Route of C7H5BrO)
o-Bromobenzaldehyde(cas: 6630-33-7) is used in L-threonine aldolase-catalyzed enantio/diastereoselective aldol reactions.Synthetic Route of C7H5BrOIt is also used in L-threonine aldolase-catalyzed enantio and diastereoselective aldol reactions. Further, it reacts with trichloromethane to prepare 1-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2,2,2-trichloro-ethanol.
