Abstract
Since the beginning of this century, p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) catalysed organic transformations have been an active area of research for developing efficient synthetic methodologies. Often, catalysis using p-TSA is associated with many advantages, such as operational simplicity, high selectivity, excellent yields, and ease of product isolation, which make organic synthesis convenient and versatile. Notably, p-TSA is a non-toxic, commercially available, inexpensive solid organic compound that is soluble in water, alcohols, and other polar organic solvents. p-TSA is a strong acid compared to many protic or mineral acids and its high acidity helps activate different organic functional groups. p-TSA-promoted conversions are fast, have a high atom and pot economy, and feature a multiple bond-forming index. Therefore, the utilization of p-TSA enables the synthesis of many important structural scaffolds without any hazardous metals, making it desirable in numerous applications of sustainable and green chemistry. Recently, this emerging area of research has become one of the pillars of synthetic organic chemistry to synthesise biologically relevant, complex carbocycles and heterocycles. This study provides a comprehensive summary of methods, applications, and mechanistic insights into p-TSA-catalysed organic transformations, covering the literature reports that have appeared since 2012.

Abstract
In order to replace the expensive metal/ligand catalysts and classic toxic and volatile solvents, commonly used for the hydration of alkynes, the hydration reaction of alkynes was studied in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIm-BF4) adding boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (BF3·Et2O) as catalyst. Different ionic liquids were used, varying the cation or the anion, in order to identify the best one, in terms of both efficiency and reduced costs. The developed method was efficaciously applied to different alkynes, achieving the desired hydration products with good yields. The results obtained using a conventional approach (i.e., adding BF3·Et2O) were compared with those achieved using BF3 electrogenerated in BMIm-BF4, demonstrating the possibility of obtaining the products of alkyne hydration with analogous or improved yields, using less hazardous precursors to generate the reactive species in situ. In particular, for terminal arylalkynes, the electrochemical route proved to be advantageous, yielding preferentially the hydration products vs the aldol condensation products. Importantly, the ability to recycle the ionic liquid in subsequent reactions was successfully demonstrated.

Efficient Synthesis of 1 H-Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2- c][1,3]oxazin-1-one Derivatives Using Ag 2CO 3/TFA-Catalyzed 6- endo-dig Cyclization: Reaction Scope and Mechanistic Study. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28052403. [PMID: 36903655 PMCID: PMC10005794 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28052403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
A small library of 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-1-one derivatives was prepared in good to excellent yields, involving a Ag2CO3/TFA-catalyzed intramolecular oxacyclization of N-Boc-2-alkynylbenzimidazole substrates. In all experiments, the 6-endo-dig cyclization was exclusively achieved since the possible 5-exo-dig heterocycle was not observed, indicating the high regioselectivity of this process. The scope and limitations of the silver catalyzed 6-endo-dig cyclization of N-Boc-2-alkynylbenzimidazoles as substrates, bearing various substituents, were investigated. While ZnCl2 has shown limits for alkynes with an aromatic substituent, Ag2CO3/TFA demonstrated its effectiveness and compatibility regardless of the nature of the starting alkyne (aliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic), providing a practical regioselective access to structurally diverse 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-1-ones in good yields. Moreover, the rationalization of oxacyclization selectivity in favor of 6-endo-dig over 5-exo-dig was explained by a complementary computational study.

Abstract
A series of 2,7-disubstituted 3-methylimidazo[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-5-ones were synthesized in good yields via Ag2CO3/TFA-mediated intramolecular annulation of N-Boc-2-alkynyl-4-bromo(alkynyl)-5-methylimidazoles. This methodology was carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of silver carbonate and trifluoroacetic acid in dichloroethane at 60 °C. In all experiments, only the six-membered ring product was obtained since the possible five-membered compound was not observed, proving the high regioselectivity of this approach. A complementary computational study was performed in order to rationalize the mechanism of 6-endo-dig heterocycle formation. In addition, 2-bromo-3-methyl-7-phenylimidazo[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-5-one was used as a building block to synthesize a small library of new 2-substituted imidazo[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-5-one derivatives through the Suzuki, Sonogashira and Heck cross coupling reactions.

Abstract
An environmentally benign, cost-efficient and practical methodology for the room temperature synthesis of 2-arylacetophenones in water has been discovered. The facile and efficient transformation involves the oxidative radical addition of arylhydrazines with α-aryl vinyl azides in the presence of H2O2 (as a radical initiator) and PEG-800 (as a phase-transfer catalyst). From the viewpoint of green chemistry and organic synthesis, the present protocol is of great significance because of using cheap, non-toxic and readily available starting materials and reagents as well as amenability to gram-scale synthesis, which provides an attractive strategy to access 2-arylacetophenones.

Abstract
The preliminary results on the development of a viable methodology for the further functionalization of 4-hydroxythiazole derivatives to afford target TRPM8 antagonists are reported. The combined Sonogashira coupling/annulation reactions of the ethyl 2-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-tifluoromethylsulfonyloxy-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate have been applied to the synthesis of analogues of the selective blocker of TRPM8 DFL23448. Among all the synthetised derivatives, the most promising compound resulted to be active as TRPM8 blocker (IC50 = 4.06 µM), showing an excellent metabolic stability and no cytotoxic effects. Finally, in silico characterisation of the derivatives showed no violation of the drug-likeness rules.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of the benzannulated 5,5-spiroketal natural products paeciloketal B and 1-epi-paeciloketal B has been achieved in 10 linear steps employing a biomimetic spiroketalization. This approach also furnished the related natural product bysspectin A from the same putative biosynthetic precursor as the paeciloketals. Alternatively, bysspectin A could be accessed in only six steps using an improved route. This scalable and efficient synthesis affords insight into the biosynthesis of these natural products in nature.
