2-Vinylchromanes (1), 2-vinyl-1,4-benzodioxanes (2), and 2,3-dihydro-2-vinyl-2H-1,4-benzoxazines (3) can be prepared in high yields (90-98%) and excellent enantiomeric purities (87-98% ee) by [COP-OAc](2)-catalyzed cyclization of phenolic (E)-allylic trichloroacetimidate precursors. Deuterium-labeling and computational experiments are consistent with these cyclization reactions taking place by an anti-oxypalladation/syn-deoxypalladation mechanism. 2-Vinylchromanes can also be prepared in good yields and high enantiomeric purities from analogous (E)-allylic acetate precursors, which constitutes the first report that acetate is a competent leaving group in COP-catalyzed enantioselective S(N)2' substitution reactions.

Cannabichromene (CBC) Shows Matrix-Dependent Thermal Configurational Stability.
J Nat Prod

Dipartimento di Scienze del Farmaco, Largo Donegani 2, 28100 Novara, Italy.
The optical purity of cannabichromene (CBC, ) is affected by the matrix in which it is generated by thermolysis from its native carboxylated form (cannabichromenic acid, CBCA, ). Thus, thermolysis at 130 °C caused a marked decrease of the enantiomeric excess (ee), while, under the same conditions, only a modest decrease of optical purity was observed when thermolysis was carried out . To rationalize these puzzling observations, the kinetics of thermal (100 °C) racemization of enantiopure cannabichromene () was evaluated by enantioselective ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography in solvents (decalin and isopropyl alcohol, neat and acidified with TFA) and surfaces (native and silanized borosilicate glass) of complementary polarity.

A synthesis of new enantiomerically enriched derivatives of (S)-α-aminopropionic acid, containing in the β-position 1,2,3-triazole groups coupled with a o-, m- and p-substituted phenyl residue, was developed based on Cu(I) catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition of azides with alkynes. As the starting materials was used the square-planar Ni(II)complex of the Schiff base of propargylglycine with the chiral auxiliary BPB (Benzylprolylbenzophenone) and 1,4-substituted phenyl azides. The assignment of the (S)-absolute configuration of the α-carbon atom of the amino acid residue of the main diastereomeric complexes of the cycloaddition products was carried out on the basis of positive Cotton effects in the region of 480-580 nm of the circular dichroism spectra.

Article Synopsis
- - The study successfully created a pure form of propargyltrichlorosilane and developed a new method for its reaction with aldehydes using asymmetric catalytic techniques.
- - Researchers found that the relationship between the catalyst's structure and its effectiveness in producing specific enantiomers differs from similar reactions involving allylation.
- - A total of eleven α-allenic alcohols were synthesized from the reaction, yielding different amounts and enantiomeric ratios, and potential reaction mechanisms were explored using computational methods.
Plant-Derived and Synthetic Nicotine in E-Cigarettes: Is Differentiation with NMR Spectroscopy Possible?

To circumvent regulatory frameworks, many producers start to substitute plant-derived nicotine (tobacco-derived nicotine, TDN) by synthetic nicotine (tobacco-free nicotine, TFN) in e-cigarette products. Due to the higher costs of enantiomeric synthesis and purification of TFN, there is a need to develop an analytical method that clearly distinguishes between the two sources. To trace nicotine's origin, its enantiomeric purity can be postulated by H NMR spectroscopy using ()-(-)-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogen phosphate (BNPPA) as a chiral complexing agent.

Porous chiral materials accompanied by electrochemiluminescence (ECL) activity are rarely reported for enantioselective discrimination because of the big challenges to integrate the stereogenic center and ECL-active unit in the backbone. In the present study, ionic chiral covalent organic frameworks (iCCOFs) consisting of the pyridinium unit as the ECL-active species were prepared by a facile strategy. We were amazed that such iCCOFs could display strong cathodic ECL responses.
