Historically, chemical synthesis has been the classical pathway to produce achiral amino acids like glycine or aracemic mixtureofd,l-methionine ord,l-alanine. The firstamino acid synthesiswas reported in 1850 with the name ofStrecker synthesis. According to this reaction the conversion of an aldehyde...
Oxidation of the methyl group gives the mononitrile of terephthalic acid 24.4.2. The cyano group in this compound is reduced by hydrogen using Raney nickel as a catalyst. The benzene ring of the resulting 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid (24.4.3) is reduced to a cyclohexane moiety by hydrogen and ...
When combined with iron(II), ligands of this ilk can promote alkene dihydroxylation and allylic oxidation reactions akin to those mediated by non-heme iron oxidase enzymes (NHIOs)1–9; in combination with cobalt(III) or iron(III), they may catalyse conversion of nitriles to primary amide ...

the targeted reaction could hardly occur due to the low conversion of substrate (Table1, entry 7). The desired product could still be formed in 42% yield under 10 bar of carbon monoxide (Table1, entry 8). As the C2 feedstock, the reaction with ethylene was tested under different ...
The use of NaBH4 afforded only undesired amine 12 in very low yields (entry 1); on the contrary the use of stronger LiAlH4 (entry 2) led to higher conversion but again with formation of larger amounts of further reduction product of the expected aldimine 11. Only the use of a sterical...
It is obviously that the significant decrease of the chiral transition energy barrier compared with the isolated α-Ala molecule chirality conversion mechanism, by ~15.6 kcalmol-1, highlighting improvement in the activity the enantiomers of α-Ala molecule. We concluded that the confinement environment...
The global demand for lactic acid is projected to be 1.96 × 106 tons by 2020, while the demand for PLA is projected at 1.21 × 106 tons [7]. Lactic acid can be produced either by chemical or biological synthesis. Chemical synthesis is usually performed by the hydrolysis of lactonitrile ...
R4and R5are each independently selected from the group consisting of --H, alkyl, aryl, nitrile and alkoxycarbonyl; and each R6is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, halo-substituted lower alkyl, aryl and heteroaralkyl radicals, ...
