Diastereo- and enantioselective oxa-Nazarov cyclization-Michael addition of conjugated 1,2-diketones was achieved by using an asymmetric binary-acid catalysis with chiral phosphoric acid and FeBr3. The reaction affords the corresponding chiral 3(2H)-furanones...

The self-assembly of a C3-symmetric molecule benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate substituted with methyl cinnamate (BTECM) has been investigated by a reprecipitation method in H2O and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) aqueous solution, respectively.
