Thiocyanate radical mediated dehydration of aldoximes with visible light and air

We developed a new means of activating aldoximes by an in situ generated thiocyanate radical from ammonium thiocyanate and molecular oxygen at room temperature. With a catalytic amount of organic dye aizenuranine as the photocatalyst, the dehydration of aldoximes proceeds smoothly under visible light irradiation, providing a simple to handle, excellent functional group tolerance, and metal-free protocol for a wide range of nitriles.

The synthesis of some new hydrazone derivatives containing the benzothiazole moiety

Hydrazones are an important class of compounds found in many synthetic products. Due to their importance in synthetic chemistry, the present article reports the synthesis of a new series of ten compounds based on the coupling of 2-oxo-3(2H)-benzothiazoleacetic acid, hydrazide and 2-thioxo-3(2H)- -benzothiazoleacetic acid, hydrazide with different aldehydes. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, 1H- -NMR, 13C-NMR and FAB+-MS spectral data. Copyright 2012 (CC) SCS.

Wacker oxidation of terminal olefins in a mixture of [bmim][BF4] and water

A simple and efficient PdCl2/CuCl catalyzed oxidation of alkenes has been successfully developed using a mixture of water and the ionic liquid [bmim][BF4] as solvent. Starting from various types of terminal olefins, the corresponding ketones have been prepared under mild reaction conditions and obtained in good to excellent yields after a simple extraction with diethyl ether. Furthermore, it was possible to recycle and reuse the ionic liquid and the catalytic system.
