Abstract
We report herein the development of two pathways for the preparation of levo-praziquantel (R-PZQ), which involves three-/four-step processes of a mechanochemical (asymmetric) aza-Henry/acylation reaction, a hydrogenation reaction, (chiral resolution) and a solvent-free acylation-ring closing reaction. The key intermediate (R)-1-aminomethyl tetrahydroisoquinoline could be obtained either by chiral resolution with a rational reuse of the S-isomer or by mechanochemical enantioselective synthesis that refrained from using a bulky toxic solvent. The efficiency and scalability of both the developed routes were demonstrated and desired target product was obtained in a satisfactory yield with excellent enantiopurity (>99%), offering practical, concise and environmentally friendly alternatives to access R-PZQ.

Abstract
The nitro-Mannich (aza-Henry) reaction, in which a nitroalkane and an imine react to form a β-nitroamine, is a versatile tool for target-oriented synthesis. Although the first stereoselective reaction was developed only 20 years ago, and enantioselective and diastereoselective versions for the synthesis of non-racemic compounds soon after, there are nowadays a variety of reliable methods which can be used for the synthesis of APIs and other biologically active substances. Hence many anticancer drugs, antivirals, antimicrobials, enzyme inhibitors and many more substances, containing C-N bonds, have been synthesized using this reaction. Several transition metal complexes and organocatalysts were shown to be compatible with the presence of a wide range of functional groups in these molecules, and very high levels of asymmetric induction have been achieved in some cases. The reaction has also been applied in cascade processes. The structural diversity of the products, ranging from simple heterocycles or azabicycles to complex alkaloids, iminosugars, amino acids or diamino acids and phosphonates, shows the versatility of the nitro-Mannich reaction and its potential for future developments.

Abstract
A multicomponent synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinolines from carboxylic acids, alkynyl ethers, and dihydroisoquinolines is described. This process features readily available starting materials, simple experimental procedures for achievement of molecule complexity, and structural diversity. The preliminary control experiment and crossover reaction provide important insight into the reaction mechanism. The formed tetrahydroisoquinolines could be transformed to an array of compounds.

Abstract
Unconventional couple: A new oxidative coupling protocol for amide bond formation has been developed (see scheme). The method provides an efficient and practical route for the synthesis of tertiary amides from readily available tertiary amines and aldehydes in the presence of a simple FeCl(2) catalyst. Mechanistic studies indicated that a peroxide and an iminium ion act as the reactive intermediates in this oxidative amidation.
