Ratiometric fluorescent chemosensor for fluoride ion based on inhibition of excited state intramolecular proton transfer

ESIPT based benzimidazole derivative has been synthesized and investigated their photophysical behavior towards various anions. The probe 2 has been used for selective estimation of F- ions as compared to other anions and signaled the binding event through formation of new absorption band at 360 nm and emission band at 420 nm. The probe 2 showed fluorescence behavior towards fluoride ions through hydrogen bonding interactions and restricted the ESIPT emission at 540 nm from OH to nitrogen of benzimidazole moiety to release its enol emission at 420 nm.

Benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles from styrenes and N-vinylimidazole via palladium catalysed oxidative C[dbnd]C and C[sbnd]N bond cleavage

Herein we report a first, palladium catalyzed, one-pot methodology for the synthesis of pharmacologically important benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles from readily available terminal aromatic olefins. The process involves sequential C[dbnd]C/C[sbnd]N bond cleavage followed by C[sbnd]N/C[sbnd]S bond formation.

A metal-organic framework based multifunctional catalytic platform for organic transformation and environmental remediation

Given the need for an efficient reaction platform, a multifunctional material has been developed through the integration of iodine into a Cd2+ based MOF as a new catalytic system for organic transformation. Furthermore, the Cd-MOF itself has been successfully used as a potential material for photocatalytic dye degradation. The iodine incorporated MOF showed tremendous efficiency in organic catalysis for the synthesis of a library of benzimidazole derivatives with yield >80%. In addition, the same iodine loaded MOF (I2@Cd-MOF) exhibits good applicability and reusability for the synthesis of thienyldipyrromethane. Apart from this, the photocatalytic activity of the Cd-MOF was also evaluated under visible light irradiation which revealed excellent photocatalytic activity (82%) for MB degradation without the use of any enhancers. Altogether, this catalytic platform established its efficacy as a multifunctional catalyst in the organic synthesis of biologically active motifs and photocatalytic dye degradation.
