- Synthesis of unsymmetrical urea from aryl- or pyridyl carboxamides and aminopyridines using PhI(OAc)2via in situformation of aryl- or pyridyl isocyanates
-
A tandem synthesis of unsymmetrical ureas (N-aryl-N′-pyridylurea andN,N′-bipyridylurea) from aryl- or pyridyl carboxamides and aminopyridinesviaHofmann rearrangement has been reported. In particular, benzamides, picolinamide, nicotinamide, and isonicotinamide generate reactive intermediate isocyanates,in situ, in the presence of PhI(OAc)2, which upon further reaction with aminopyridines form urea derivatives. As the formation of pyridylisocyanates from their corresponding carboxamidesviaHofmann rearrangement remained unexplored previously, attempts have been made to trap the isocyanates. While the three pyridylisocyanates were trapped as their corresponding carbamates, 3-pyridylisocyanate was isolated and characterized. Unlike closely related previous methods reported for urea synthesis, the current method avoids direct use of isocyanates or eliminates the use of toxic phosgene for thein situgeneration of isocyanates.

- Photorelease of Pyridines Using a Metal-Free Photoremovable Protecting Group
-
The photorelease of bioactive molecules has emerged as a valuable tool in biochemistry. Nevertheless, many important bioactive molecules, such as pyridine derivatives, cannot benefit from currently available organic photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs). We found that the inefficient photorelease of pyridines is attributed to intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from PPGs to pyridinium ions. To alleviate PET, we rationally designed a strategy to drive the excited state of PPG from S1 to T1 with a heavy atom, and synthesized a new PPG by substitution of the H atom at the 3-position of 7-dietheylamino-coumarin-4-methyl (DEACM) with Br or I. This resulted in an improved photolytic efficiency of the pyridinium ion by hundreds-fold in aqueous solution. The PPG can be applied to various pyridine derivatives. The successful photorelease of a microtubule inhibitor, indibulin, in living cells was demonstrated for the potential application of this strategy in biochemical research.

- Visible Light-Induced Amide Bond Formation
-
A metal-, base-, and additive-free amide bond formation reaction was developed under an organic photoredox catalyst. This green approach showed excellent functional selectivity without affecting other functional groups such as alcohols, phenols, ethers, esters, halogens, or heterocycles. This method featured a broad substrate scope, good compatibility with water and air, and high yields (≤95%). The potential utilities were demonstrated by the synthesis of important drug molecules such as paracetamol, melatonin, moclobemide, and acetazolamide.

- Catalyst-free, direct electrochemical synthesis of annulated medium-sized lactams through C-C bond cleavage
-
A catalyst-free, direct electrochemical synthesis of synthetically challenging medium-sized lactams through C-C bond cleavage has been developed. In contrast to previous typical amidyl radical cyclization, this electrosynthetic approach enabled step-economical ring expansion through a unique remote amidyl migration under mild, metal- and external-oxidant-free conditions in a simple undivided cell. The strategy features unparalleled broad substrate scope with all ring sizes of (hetero)aryl-fused 8-11-membered rings and hetero atom-tethered rings, high yields, and good functional group tolerance. Our experimental and computational findings provided strong support for a SET-based reaction manifold.

- Donor Strength Determination of Pyridinylidene-amide Ligands using Their Palladium-NHC Complexes
-
Pyridinylidene-amides (PYAs) are a relatively new type of N-donor ligands that can exist in three isomeric forms and adopt various resonance structures. This makes them electronically flexible, and in order to evaluate their electronic profile using the Huynh electronic parameter (HEP), seven structurally diverse mixed N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs)/PYA palladium complexes of the type trans-[PdBr2(iPr2-bimy)(PYA)] were prepared and fully characterized by various spectroscopic and spectrometric methods. This study shows that PYAs are among the strongest, formally neutral N-donors, but they are still weaker than phosphines and organometallic ligands such as NHCs. Notably, the donating abilities of isomeric PYAs are distinct and can be further fine-tuned by the choice of two substituents making them structurally and electronically versatile. These characteristics and the ease of their preparation hold promise for a wide applicability in coordination chemistry.

- Synthesis of diverse libraries of carboxamides via chemoselective N-acylation of amines by carboxylic acids employing Br?nsted acidic IL [BMIM(SO3H)][OTf]
-
Chemoselective N-acylation of amines with carboxylic acids as acyl electrophiles and Br?nsted acidic IL [BMIM(SO3H)][OTf] as promoter is reported under both thermal and microwave irradiation to produce libraries of carboxamides in good to excellent yields after a simple workup. The protocol is compatible with structurally diverse 1° and 2° amines and works in the presence of sensitive functional groups such as thiols and phenols. The potential for recycling and reuse of the IL is also demonstrated.

- A new transformation of aminopyridines upon diazotization in acetonitrile with the formation of N-pyridinylacetamides
-
Diazotization of aminopyridines upon treatment with NaNO2 and H3PO4 in acetonitrile led to the formation of N-pyridinylacetamides. This reaction constitutes a convenient and general preparative method for the synthesis of 2-, 3-, and 4-N-pyridinylacetamides under mild conditions in good yields. The in situ oxidation of the thus obtained N-pyridinylacetamides with hydrogen peroxide gave good yields of pyridinylacetamide N-oxides.

- 2-Aminopyridines as an α-Bromination Shuttle in a Transition Metal-Free One-Pot Synthesis of Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines
-
A wide range of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines are accessible from cheap and readily available 2-aminopyridines and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds using a unique CBrCl3/2-aminopyridine system for bromination at the α-carbon. 2-Aminopyridine is not only the substrate but also acts as a bromination shuttle, transferring the bromine atom from CBrCl3 to the α-carbon of the 1,3-dicarbonyl. The reaction mechanism involves a series of reversible steps, including an addition reaction with cyclic transition state, to form a bromo-hemiaminal intermediate. Isolated yields of up to 97% were obtained under mild conditions and at short reaction times in this transition metal-free, one-pot synthesis.

- ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols and amines with acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions
-
A ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was prepared from metal nitrates and tetraethyl orthosilicate by the sol-gel process, and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements. The nanocomposite was tested as a heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines under solvent-free conditions. Under optimized conditions, efficient acetylation of these substrates with acetic anhydride over the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was obtained. Acetylation of anilines and primary aliphatic amines proceeded rapidly at room temperature, while the reaction time was longer for the acetylation of alcohols and phenols, showing that an amine NH2 group can be selectively acetylated in the presence of alcoholic or phenolic OH groups. The catalyst can be reused without obvious loss of catalytic activity. The catalytic activity of the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was higher than that of pure ZnAl2O4. The method gives high yields, and is clean, cost effective, compatible with substrates having other functional groups and it is suitable for practical organic synthesis.

- N -acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts as N -acylating agents
-
Air-stable and crystalline N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts have been synthesized from 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and the corresponding acyl chloride in the presence of sodium tetraphenylborate. The salts have been shown to be effective N-acylating agents, reacting with primary amines, secondary amines, and sulfonamides to form the corresponding N-acylated products in good yields. The DBN hydrotetraphenylborate byproduct can be conveniently removed by filtration, providing pure N-acylated products without the need for further purification. The N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts are attractive alternatives to acyl halides as they can be stored in air without decomposition, avoid the production of free acid during acylation reactions, and can be used under more forcing thermal conditions.

- Spinel-type zinc aluminate (ZnAl2O4) nanoparticles prepared by the co-precipitation method: A novel, green and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation of amines, alcohols and phenols under solvent-free conditions
-
Zinc aluminate (ZnAl2O4) nanoparticles with an average particle size of about 8 nm were easily prepared by the co-precipitation method using aqueous ammonia solution as the precipitating agent. This nanosized spinel-type oxide was characterized by TGA, XRD, FT-IR, TEM, and surface area measurement and used as the heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation reaction. Efficient acetylation of various amines, alcohols and phenols was carried out over ZnAl2O4 nanoparticles using acetic anhydride and/or acetyl chloride as the acetylating agents at room temperature without the use of a solvent. The method is highly selective, allowing the alcoholic hydroxyl group to be protected while the phenolic hydroxyl group remains intact, and the amine group can be acetylated in the presence of the hydroxyl group. This method is fast and has a high yield. It is also clean, safe, cost effective, compatible with substrates that have other functional groups and very suitable for practical organic synthesis. In addition, the catalyst can be reused without significant loss of activity. Indeed, the catalytic activity of the ZnAl2O4 nanoparticles is higher than that of bulk ZnAl2O4.

- Determination of critical micelle concentration by hyper-Rayleigh scattering
-
The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of several surfactants that contain an NLO chromophore, either at the hydrocarbon tail, or at the hydrophilic headgroup, or even as a counterion, was determined by hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS). In all cases, the HRS signal exhibited a similar variation with surfactant concentration, wherein the CMC is inferred from a rather unprecedented drop in the signal intensity. This drop is attributed to the formation of small pre-micellar aggregates, whose concentrations become negligible above CMC. In addition, a probe molecule, which upon protonation yielded a species with significantly enhanced HRS intensity, was developed and its utility for the determination of the CMC of simple fatty acids was demonstrated.
