Efficient cross-aldol condensation of cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone and 1-indanone with various aromatic aldehydes is catalysed with TiCl 3 SO 3 CF 3 at room temperature in excellent yields.
A very simple and mild reaction is described for the efficient coupling of thiols at room temperature catalyzed by Fe (III)/ NaI in the presence of air.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
