Abstract
In this study, we developed a novel methodology involving a base-controlled, rongalite-mediated reductive/aldol reaction, followed by cyclization of isatylidene malononitriles/cyanoacetates, resulting in the synthesis of spiro[2,3-dihydrofuran-3,3'-oxindole]. Additionally, we have disclosed a rongalite-mediated dimerization process for isatylidene malononitriles, yielding dispiro[cyclopent-3'-ene]bisoxindole. The utilization of rongalite in this reaction serves a dual purpose, acting both as a reducing agent and a C1 synthon. The developed approach has several advantages like a simple reaction setup, a wide substrate scope, requiring less time, using water as a green solvent, no metal or catalyst is required and products can be easily isolated via filtration with excellent yields under mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
The development of anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) drugs has become a challenging task in medicinal chemistry. This is because Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB), the pathogen that causes tuberculosis, has an increasing number of drug-resistant strains, and existing medication therapies are not very effective. This resistance significantly demands new anti-TB drug profiles. Here, we present the design and synthesis of a number of hybrid compounds with previously known anti-mycobacterial moieties attached to quinoxaline, quinoline, tetrazole, and 1,2,4-oxadiazole scaffolds. A convenient ultrasound methodology was employed to attain spiroquinoxaline-1,2,4-oxadiazoles via [3 + 2] cycloaddition of quinoxaline Schiff bases and aryl nitrile oxides at room temperature. This approach avoids standard heating and column chromatography while producing high yields and shorter reaction times. The target compounds 3a-p were well-characterized, and their in vitro anti-mycobacterial activity (anti-TB) was evaluated. Among the screened compounds, 3i displayed promising activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell line H37Rv, with an MIC99 value of 0.78 µg/mL. However, three compounds (3f, 3h, and 3o) exhibited potent activity with MIC99 values of 6.25 µg/mL. To further understand the binding interactions, the synthesized compounds were docked against the tuberculosis protein 5OEQ using in silico molecular docking. Moreover, the most active compounds were additionally tested for their cytotoxicity against the RAW 264.7 cell line, and the cytotoxicity of compounds 3f, 3h, 3i, and 3o was 27.3, 28.9, 26.4, and 30.2 µg/mL, respectively. These results revealed that the compounds 3f, 3h, 3i, and 3o were less harmful to humans. Furthermore, the synthesized compounds were tested for ADME qualities, and the results suggest that this series is useful for producing innovative and potent anti-tubercular medicines in the future.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose a straightforward approach to access transition-metal-free reductive N-formylation of nitroarenes. This reaction integrates the dual role of rongalite, which acts as a reductant and a C1 building block concurrently. This provides an alternative method for the synthesis of N-aryl formamides from nitroarenes, including the construction of a C-N bond. The utility of this protocol was demonstrated by scale-up synthesis and late-stage functionalizations of complex molecules.

Abstract
Here, an efficient leaving group-activated methylene alcohol strategy for the preparation of primary propargyl alcohols from terminal alkynes by employing the bulk industrial product rongalite as the C1 unit has been described. The reaction avoids the low-temperature reaction conditions and inconvenient lithium reagents required for the classical method of preparing primary propargylic alcohols. Preliminary mechanistic studies showed that the reaction may not proceed via formaldehyde intermediates, but through the direct nucleophilic attack of the terminal alkyne on the carbon atom of rongalite by activation through SO2- as a leaving group.

Abstract
Rongalite has been used as a cheap and efficient carbon synthon for the synthesis of divergent N-heteroaromatics, including different pyridines and quinolines. The selective synthesis of different products can be achieved by employing enaminones or enaminones/anilines as reaction partners. In addition, compared with the reaction using conventional aldehyde synthons, rongalite displays an evident advantage in providing products with considerably higher product yields under milder conditions. The GC-MS analysis of the reaction process has been performed to probe the possible reaction mechanism.

Abstract
A Hantzsch-type strategy for the synthesis of 2,3,5,6-tetrasubstituted pyridines via an oxidative coupling of β-enamine carbonyl compounds with rongalite was developed. This method employs rongalite as a C1 unit for the assembly of a pyridine ring at C-4 position, offering a facile method for the preparation of substituted pyridine derivatives with a broad functional group tolerance. In particular, this method allows us to prepare terpyridine derivatives, which are important ligands or structural fragments for catalysts and 3D metal–organic frameworks.

Abstract
A transition metal- and hydride-free protocol has been developed for the chemoselective reduction of α-keto esters and α-keto amides using rongalite as a reducing agent. Here, rongalite acts as a hydride-free reducing agent via a radical mechanism. This protocol offers the synthesis of a wide range of α-hydroxy esters and α-hydroxy amides with 85-98% yields. This chemoselective method is compatible with other reducible functionalities such as halides, alkenes, amides, and nitriles. The use of inexpensive rongalite (ca. $0.03/1 g), mild reaction conditions, and gram-scale synthesis are some of the key features of this methodology. Also, cyclandelate, a vasodilator drug, has been synthesized in gram scale with 79% yield.

Abstract
A sequential one-pot classical aldol, transition-metal and hydride-free reductive aldol reaction is reported here for C(sp3)- H functionalization of 2-oxindoles using the multifaceted reagent rongalite. Here, rongalite functions as a hydride-free reducing agent and double C1 unit donor. This protocol enables the synthesis of a wide range of 3-methylindoline-2-ones and 3-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methylindolin-2-ones from 2-oxindoles (65-95% yields), which are the synthetic precursors for many natural products. Some of the important aspects of this synthetic approach include one-pot methylation and hydroxymethylation, low-cost rongalite (ca. $0.03 per 1 g), mild reaction conditions and applicability to gram-scale synthesis.

Abstract
A facile and efficient thiol-free one-pot method for direct synthesis of sulfides and sulfoxides under green conditions without using any metal catalyst is reported. For this purpose, we used benzyl bromides as starting materials in the presence of potassium thioacetate (PTA) and Oxone® which are low-cost, and readily accessible chemicals. This method is highly compatible with a variety of functional groups and delivered a series of sulfides, bis-sulfides, and sulfoxides in good yields. The selective formation of sulfoxides over sulfones is discussed via a mechanism. A facile and efficient thiol-free one-pot method for direct synthesis of sulfides and sulfoxides under green conditions without using any metal catalyst is reported.![]()
