The most commonly used cocatalyst species in Ziegler-Natta catalysts are aluminium alkyls. In this study we aim to find the interaction between aluminium centres of these activators and other components in the ZNC system. Initially we look at binary systems of Al-alkyl/MgCl2 and ternary systems of Al-alkyl/MgCl2/TiCl4, followed by donor containing systems. The aluminium alkyls prove to be very ...

The direct alkynylation of benzofurans was achieved for the first time using the hypervalent iodine reagent 1-[(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl]-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (TIPS-EBX) based on the cooperative effect between a gold catalyst and a zinc Lewis acid. High selectivity was observed for C2-alkynylation of benzofurans substituted with alkyl, aryl, halogen and ether groups. The reaction was also...

A series of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-[3-(2-metylbenzoxy)-4-methoxybenzylideneamino]-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (1-9) were titrated potentiometrically with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide in four non-aqueous solvents such as isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl acetonitrile and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), graphs drawn for all cases. The half-neutralization potential values the corresponding pKa determine...

We already reported that an intramolecular benzylation of the imino moiety of bidentate iminopyrrolyl ligands afforded an amido-pyrrolyl complexes 1 and they exhibited better catalytic activity for ethylene polymerization compared to the corresponding bis(iminopyrrolyl) dichloro complexes of zirconium. In this contribution, we prepared amido-pyrrolyl complexes of zirconium (3a-d) and hafnium (4...

a green and convenient protocol is described for the preparation of 1-(alkylamino)-3-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-2-methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl benzoates via one-pot three-component reaction between 2-(2-oxopropyl)isoindoline-1,3-dione, an alkyl isocyanide and an aromatic carboxylic acid in water at room temperature. the methods used to follow the reactions are tlc and nmr, which indicated that there...

A series of 5-sulphanyl derivatives of 1-Benzyl-2-alkyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazoles (5-9) were prepared by the coupling method of 3-(1-Benzyl-2-ethyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole-5ylsulfanyl)propanoic acid (4) with appropriate amino acid ester hydrochloride, in the presence of hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT) and DCC. Compounds (10-12) and (13) were similarly synthesized using appropriate amino alcohols, and 1-su...

Ketenimines and azadienes are transient intermediates in organic chemistry especially in elimination-addition processes and in the formation of heterocyclic systems. These compounds play a considerable role as intermediates in the synthesis of heterocyclic ring systems. In this present research synthesis of novel ketenimines and azadienes via multicomponent reactions (MCRs...

Ethyl (3-methyl-7-substituted-2-oxoquinoxalin-1(2H)-yl) acetates 2a-c are prepared by the condensation of ethyl chloroacetate with 3-methyl-7-substituted quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones 1a-c. The reaction of 2a-c with hydrazine hydrate furnished 2-(3-methyl-7-substituted-2-oxoquinoxalin-1(2H)-yl) acetohydrazides 3a-c, which on cyclisation with substituted aromatic carboxylic acids in the presence of phos...

A series of novel fused heterocyclic compounds bearing benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazine 4a-4w were designed and conveniently synthesized via the intermediates 2-(halogenated alkyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles 2a, 2b, and 2-((1-(substituted phenyl)hydrazinyl)alkyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles 3a-3g. The structures of all target compounds were characterized by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, 13C NMR, and EI-MS, of whi...
