An efficient and mild protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazole under solvent- and metal-free conditions using CBr4 as the catalyst. This process involves the activation of a thioamide through halogen bond formation between the sulphur atom of the thioamide and bromine atom of the CBr4 molecule. The presence of halogen-bonding interaction between N-methylthioamides and tetrabromomethane has been demonstrated with several control experiments, spectroscopic analysis and density functional theory (DFT). This methodology has a wide substrate scope for the synthesis of both 2-alkyl and 2-aryl substituted benzothiazoles.

Production of hydrogen from renewable sources, particularly from water, is an intensive area of research, which has far-reaching relevance in hydrogen economy. A homogeneous catalytic method is presented for producing clean hydrogen gas from water, in a reaction of water with a diboron compound as the reductant, under ambient reaction conditions. The Pd-catalytic system is stable in water and displays excellent recyclability. Hydroxy analogues such as alcohols are compatible with the Pd/B2Pin2 system and generate hydrogen gas efficiently. The B2Pin2-H2O system, in the presence of palladium, is an excellent catalytic system for selective hydrogenation of olefins.
Nickel-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling: Direct transformation of aldehydes into esters and amides

By exploring a new mode of nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling, a method to directly transform both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes into either esters or amides has been developed. The success of this oxidative coupling depends on the appropriate choice of catalyst and organic oxidant, including the use of either α,α,α-trifluoroacetophenone or excess aldehyde. Mechanistic data that supports a catalytic cycle involving oxidative addition into the aldehyde C-H bond is also presented.
