This was also illustrated by comparing a series of (trialkoxysilylmethyl)arenes prepared with the precursors with different Si—OR functions (R=Me, Et, i-Pr and n-Bu)106. 

This asymmetric reaction was recently improved by using a Lewis acid system of BINOL, ZrCl4(THF)2 and 4-tert-calix[4]arene prepared in situ [19bj. The modified method required only 2 % BINOL and zirconium to obtain up to 96 % ee of the homoallylalcohols. 

In some instances the Mannich base itself is the synthesis objective, as with a series of piperazinomethylcalix[4]arenes prepared for X-ray crystallographic...

Which aggregate indeed prevail in a given solution is in fact a manifestation of a delicate equilibrium that may be affected by subtle experimental conditions. For example, when Et4JST salts are added to a solution of 6c, dimers are observed in the solid-state [13] however, when these guests were added to the chloroform solution of 6e diffusion NMR analysis indicates that hexamers prevail in the solution. In these solutions each hexamer encapsulates, on the average, two ammonium salts [26b]. In this study the bis-calix[5]arene prepared by Parisi and co-workers was used as internal reference [48 a]. This covalent dimer was selected as an internal... 

In eontrast, dialkylhalonium salts sueh as dimethylbromonium and dimethyliodonium fluoroantimonate, whieh we prepared from excess alkyl halides with antimony pentafluoride or fluoroantimonie acid and isolated as stable salts (the less-stable chloronium salts were obtained only in solution), are very effective alkylating agents for heteroatom eompounds (Nu = R2O, R2S, R3N, R3P, ete.) and for C-alkylation (arenes, alkenes). 

The Birch reduction not only provides a method to prepare dienes from arenes which cannot be accomplished by catalytic hydrogenation but also gives a nonconju gated diene system rather than the more stable conjugated one... 

Of these the most important are the sulfonic acids In general however sulfonic acids are not prepared by oxidation of thiols Arenesulfomc acids (ArS03H) for example are prepared by sulfonation of arenes (Section 12 4)... 

The preparation of amines by the methods described m this section involves the prior synthesis and isolation of some reducible material that has a carbon-nitrogen bond an azide a nitrile a nitro substituted arene or an amide The following section describes a method that combines the two steps of carbon-nitrogen bond formation and reduction into a single operation Like the reduction of amides it offers the possibility of prepar mg primary secondary or tertiary amines by proper choice of starting materials... 

The two mam methods for the preparation of aryl halides halogenation of arenes by electrophilic aromatic substitution and preparation by way of aryl diazomum salts were described earlier and are reviewed m Table 23 2 A number of aryl halides occur natu rally some of which are shown m Figure 23 1... 

Synthetic utility of stereoselective alkylations in natural product chemistry is exemplified by the preparation of optically active 2-arylglycine esters (38). Chirally specific a-amino acids with methoxyaryl groups attached to the a-carbon were prepared by reaction of the dimethyl ether of a chiral bis-lactam derivative with methoxy arenes. Using SnCl as the Lewis acid, enantioselectivities ranging from 65 to 95% were obtained. 

Optically active 2-arylalkanoic acid esters have been prepared by the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of arenes with optically active a-sulfonyloxy esters (40). Friedel-Crafts alkylation of ben2ene with (5)-methyl 2-(chlorosulfonyloxy)- or 2-(mesyloxy)propionate proceeded with predorninant inversion of configuration (<97%) to give (5)-methyl 2-phenylpropionate. 

Low Oxidation State Chromium Compounds. Cr(0) compounds are TT-bonded complexes that require electron-rich donor species such as CO and C H to stabilize the low oxidation state. A direct synthesis of Cr(CO)g, from the metal and CO, is not possible. Normally, the preparation requires an anhydrous Cr(III) salt, a reducing agent, an arene compound, carbon monoxide that may or may not be under high pressure, and an inert atmosphere (see Carbonyls). 

Optically active 2-arylaIkanoic acid esters have been prepared by Eriedel-Crafts alkylation of arenes with optically active esters, such as methyl 3 -2-(chlorosulfonoxy)- or 3 -2-(mesyloxy)propionate, in the presence of aluminum chloride (54,55).
