Laboratory Insider: A Look Inside the Organic Synthesis Lab

Ask the Expert Webinar
Presented live November 2, 2022

Step inside the Parasram Lab at New York University for a look at some of their latest research.

In this webinar, Professor Marvin Parasram will discuss data from his laboratory’s recent publication, “Anaerobic Heteroatom Transfer Reactions Using Photoexcited Nitroarenes.” The research features developments on the anaerobic cleavage of alkenes into carbonyl compounds using nitroarenes as oxygen transfer reagents under visible light. This approach is a safe and practical alternative to mainstream oxidative cleavage protocols, such as ozonolysis and the Lemieux–Johnson reaction.

As an attendee, you will learn more about:

  • How a wide range of alkenes possessing oxidatively sensitive functionalities underwent anaerobic cleavage to generate carbonyl derivatives with high efficiency and regioselectivity, using the Advion Interchim Scientific puriFlash® 5.250 Preparative HPLC system.
  • Mechanistic studies support that the transformation occurs via direct photoexcitation of the nitroarene followed by a nonstereospecific radical cycloaddition event with alkenes.
    How this process leads to 1,3,2- and 1,4,2-dioxazolidine intermediates that fragment to give the carbonyl products, using the Advion Interchim Scientific expression Compact Mass Spectrometer.
  • How a combination of radical clock experiments and in situ photoNMR spectroscopy revealed the identities of the key radical species and the putative aryl dioxazolidine intermediates, respectively.Watched the video and ready to learn more?

Helium Shortages in the Chemistry Lab: Compound Characterization Using Helium-Free Techniques

Helium shortages are not new – annually, scientists see the cost of helium rise and fall like the stock market. Except this isn’t just a financial impact. Global helium shortages threaten to derail research and essential industry functions, taking down GC and high-field NMR instruments, bringing a once state-of-the-art lab down to a bare-bones facility.

This whitepaper explores the use of alternative reaction monitoring technology, including the expression® CMS (Compact Mass Spectrometer), Plate ExpressTM TLC Plate Reader, and ASAP® probe for liquid and solid samples – all helium-free alternatives for the chemistry laboratory.

Reaction Monitoring Capabilities at the Bench:

  • The expression® CMS offers an ideal reaction monitoring solution that will live on long beyond the helium shortage and become a centerpiece of the lab. The system offers a complete solution for: 
  • Batch and flow chemistry 
  • Fast compound identification and purity determination
  • …with little or no sample preparation required, and many novel sample introduction interfaces
