Chemistry is an experimental science, and the best way to enjoy it and learn about it is performing experiments.Introducing a new discovery about 246047-72-3, Name is (1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)dichloro(phenylmethylene)(tricyclohexylphosphine)ruthenium, Quality Control of: (1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)dichloro(phenylmethylene)(tricyclohexylphosphine)ruthenium.
The enantiomerically pure 5,6-dihydropyran-2-ones play a crucial role as the building blocks in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds. A new straightforward protocol toward enantiomerically pure 5,6-dihydropyran-2-ones based on enzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) resulted in non-racemic homoallylic crotonates, sequentially combined with ring-closing metathesis (RCM) was designed. The influence of the reaction conditions on the catalytic behavior of selected hydrolases in the synthesis of non-racemic homoallylic crotonates was investigated. Under optimized conditions for enzymatic DKR desired homoallylic esters were obtained with high yields and enantiomeric excesses exceeding 99 %. Finally, established enzymatic DKR was successfully combined as a two-steps sequential procedure with RCM affording target 5,6-dihydropyran-2-ones with high yields up to 75 % and enantiomeric excesses exceeding 99 %.
