Publisher: Florida Atlantic University Libraries: Digital Library
Description: The syntheses of various Lariat crown ethers including several not previously reported and their efficient purification are presented. The synthesis route brings together reactions from a variety of previous works leading to a robust and generalized approach to these C-pivot lariats. The main steps are condensation of functionalized diols with penta-ethylene glycol ditosylate in the presence of… more

Member of: FAU Undergraduate Student Research
Contributors: Horowitz, Andrew, Lepore, Salvatore D., Rezler, Evonne, Rucco, Dominic, St. Germain, Elijah
Publisher: Florida Atlantic University Digital Library
Description: An Organic Chemistry Lab experiment is being developed and adapted from work recently published by Maity and Lepore [1] investigating the cyclization of substituted β-alkynyl hydrazines to yield azaproline derivatives. The mechanism of this reaction is putatively driven by cation-π interaction of alkynyl hydrazine with a tetrabutylammonium ion. This experiment will present students with a cutting… more
