One-pot sequential deoximation and allylation reactions of aldoximes in aqueous solution

Sustainable Generation of Ni(OH)2 Nanoparticles for the Green Synthesis of 5-Substituted 1H-Tetrazoles: A Competent Turn on Fluorescence Sensing of H2O2

A mutually correlated green protocol has been devised that originates from a sustainable production of β-Ni(OH)₂ nanoparticles which is used for an efficient catalytic synthesis of versatile substituted tetrazoles, under mild reaction conditions in water via a simple, one-pot, eco-friendly method. The synthesis is followed by derivatization into a highly fluorescence active compound 9-(4-(5-(quinolin-2-yl)-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole that can be used at tracer concentrations (0.1 μM) to detect as well as quantify hydrogen peroxide down to 2 μM concentration. The nanocatalyst was synthesized by a simple, proficient, and cost-effective methodology and characterized thoroughly by UV-vis absorption and Fourier transform infrared spectra, N₂ adsorption/desorption, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction pattern, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Broad substrate scope, easy handling, higher efficiency, low cost, and reusability of the catalyst are some of the important features of this heterogeneous catalytic system. The strong analytical performance of the resultant derivative in low-level quantification of potentially hazardous hydrogen peroxide is the key success of the overall green synthesis procedure reported here.

One-pot preparation of trifluoromethylated homoallylic N-acylhydrazines or α-methylene-γ-lactams from acylhydrazines, trifluoroacetaldehyde methyl hemiacetal, allyl bromide and tin

Tin promoted one-pot preparation of trifluoromethylated homoallylic N-acylhydrazines or α-methylene-γ-lactams has been developed instead of using toxic stannanes.

Nitroalkenes as carbonyl surrogates in arylmethyl-homoallylic alcohol forming one-pot allylation reactions in water

A simple and practical approach has been developed for conducting direct, homoallylic alcohol forming allylation reactions of nitroalkenes in water. Employing the new method, various arylmethyl-homoallylic alcohols can be produced from the corresponding, readily prepared β-nitrostyrenes.

Tandem application of C-C bond-forming reactions with reductive ozonolysis

Several variants of reductive ozonolysis, defined here as the in situ generation of aldehydes or ketones during ozonolytic cleavage of alkenes, are demonstrated to work effectively in tandem with a number of C-C bond-forming reactions. For reactions involving basic nucleophiles (1,2-addition of Grignard reagents, Wittig or Horner-Emmons olefinations, and directed aldol reactions of lithium enolates), the one-pot process offers a rapid and high-yielding alternative to traditional two-step protocols.
