(Chemical Equation Presented) New general methodology of value in aromatic chemistry based on ortho-metalation sites in o-, m-, and p-anisic acids (1-3) (Scheme 1) is described. The metalation can be selectively directed to either of the ortho positions by varying the base, metalation temperature, and exposure times. Metalation of o-anisic acid (1) with s-BuLi/TMEDA in THF at -78°C occurs exclusively in the position adjacente to the carboxylate. On the other hand, a reversal of regioselectivity is observed with n-BuLi/t-BuOK. With LTMP at 0°C, the two directors of m-anisic acid (2) function in concert to direct introduction of the metal between them while n-BuLi/t-BuOK removes preferentially the proton located ortho to the methoxy and para to the carboxylate (H-4). s-BuLi/TMEDA reacts with p-anisic acid (3) exclusively in the vicinity of the carboxylate. According to these methodologies, routes to very simple methoxybenzoic acids with a variety of functionalities that are not easily accessible by other means have been developed (Table 1).
Toward a better understanding on the mechanism of ortholithiation. Tuning of selectivities in the metalation of meta-anisic acid by an appropriate choice of base

(Chemical Equation Presented) If employed in THF at 0°C, LTMP metalates meta-anisic acid at the doubly activated position. In contrast, n-BuLi/t-BuOK deprotonates position C-4 preferentially at low temperature. Functionalization at C-6 requires protection of the C-2 site beforehand. As a result of these findings, a new mechanism is proposed for the heteroatom-directed ortholithiation of aromatic compounds.
Synthesis of a New Allosteric Carrier Containing Three Conformationally Related Subunits
Costero, Ana M.,Pitarch, Miguel
, p. 2939 - 2944 (2007/10/02)
A new allosteric carrier was prepared.This compound consists of three crown ether subunits in which conformational information is transferred through two biphenyl systems.This system is able to complex nonionic species in both external crown ether subunits.The allosteric cooperativity in this system was established and its ability to transport Hg(CN)2 has been studied.
Electrosynthesis of aryl-carboxylic acids from chlorobenzene derivatives and carbon dioxide

, p. 1631 - 1636 (2007/10/02)
The electrocarboxylation of a large variety of chlorobenzenic compounds is achieved in N,N-dimethylformamide by constant current electrolysis between a stainless steel cathode and a sacrificial magnesium anode in a diaphragmless cell. Substituted benzoic acids are obtained in high yield in simle conditions thus avoiding the usual preparation of organometallic intermediates.
