In the presence of a quinone, Brønsted acid-catalyzed intramolecular C-N bond formation of o-vinylanilines by electrophilic cyclization was developed, giving the corresponding N-arylindoles in good to high yields. The reaction worked well for o-vinylanilines with terminal and internal C=C double bonds.

Antireflection (AR) coatings with mechanical robustness and superhydrophobic properties have wide potential applications in optical, electronic, and automotive fields. However, the fabrication of large-sized, robust, and multifunctional AR coatings on plastic/polymer substrates has been a challenging problem. In this study, we developed a bottom-up approach to produce mechanically robust, enhanced transmittance, and superhydrophobic coatings on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrate.

The present study reveals an unexpected anomaly observed in the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the 5,6-O-isopropylidene group in 3-O-protected D-gluco- and D-allofuranose derivatives. Although the removal of the 5,6-O-isopropylidene protecting group is typically rapid and quantitative under acidic conditions, an unexpected inhibition of this reaction is observed for the two C3-epimers, 3-O-imidazole sulfonyl moiety. X-ray data show a two-faced imidazole ring orientation in the crystal, while solution state NOE data reveal a critical interaction type between the isopropylidene and the imidazole rings.

Herein, we present the enantioselective synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-4-quinolones bearing chiral tetrasubstituted carbons from isatins and 2'-aminoacetophenones. The transformation is mediated by a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst and proceeds via an generated ketimine and subsequent enantioselective intramolecular cyclization. The methodology features a broad scope and functional group tolerance with yields and enantioselectivities of up to 99% and 98% ee.
