H-β-zeolite catalyzed synthesis of β-bromostyrenes from styrene bromohydrins

A stereoselective synthesis of (E)- or (Z)-β-arylvinyl halides via a borylative coupling/halodeborylation protocol

A new highly selective method for the synthesis of (E)-arylvinyl iodides and (E)- or (Z)-β-arylvinyl bromides from easily accessible styrenes and vinyl boronates, on the basis of a one-pot procedure via borylative coupling/halodeborylation is reported.

H-β-zeolite catalyzed transamidation of carboxamides, phthalimide, formamides and thioamides with amines under neat conditions

Efficient transamidation of unactivated carboxamides, phthalimides, formamides and thioamides with amines under solvent-free conditions using H-β-zeolite as a green and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst is described.
