Zhou, Xiao published the artcileNickel-Catalyzed Reductive Acylation of Carboxylic Acids with Alkyl Halides and N-Hydroxyphthalimide Esters Enabled by Electrochemical Process, Product Details of C8H8O2, the publication is Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis (2022), 364(9), 1526-1531, database is CAplus.
A sustainable Ni-catalyzed reductive acylation reaction of carboxylic acids via an electrochem. pathway was presented, affording a ketones ArC(O)R [Ar = Ph, 4-MeC6H4, 4-PhC6H4, etc.; R = n-Bu, CH(Me)2, CH2Cy, etc.] as major products. The reaction proceeded at ambient temperature using unactivated alkyl halides and N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) esters as coupling partners, which exhibited several synthetic advantages, including mild conditions and convenience of amplification (58% yield for 6 mmol scale reaction).
Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis published new progress about 118-90-1. 118-90-1 belongs to catalysis-chemistry, auxiliary class Carboxylic acid,Benzene,Natural product, name is 2-Methylbenzoic acid, and the molecular formula is C6H8O6, Product Details of C8H8O2.
