A protocol has been developed for the efficient synthesis of structurally diverse 3,4-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-ones and 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans via four-component reactions of arylamines, acetylenedicarboxylate, aromatic aldehydes and cyclic 1,3-diketones. The selective formation of the very different pyridinone or pyran derivatives depends on the

The novel multicomponent reaction of [60]fullerene with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and isoquinoline, quinoline or substituted quinolines was investigated. This type of reaction presents the first example of a 1,4-dipolar cycloaddition reaction in fullerene chemistry.

Big spherulite structure and high crystallinity are the two main drawbacks of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and hinder its application. In this work, a new type of copolyester poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene acetylenedicarboxylate) (PBSAD) is synthesized. With the incorporation of acetylenedicarboxylate (AD) units

Stereoselective Diels-Alder cycloadditions that probe substituent effects in aryl-aryl sandwich complexes were studied experimentally and theoretically. Computations on model systems demonstrate that the stereoselectivity in these reactions is mediated by differential pi-stacking interactions in competing transition states. This allows relative
