A novel DBU-mediated oxidative cyanation of α-amino carbonyl compounds by using air as the sole oxidant was developed under mild metal-free conditions for the first time. The reaction involves a tandem oxidation/Strecker reaction/oxidation process and provides a new and efficient method for the construction of α-iminonitriles in good to high yields in a single step.

We report in this paper an interesting tandem reaction involving sequential palladium(0)-catalyzed decarboxylation of diynylic carbonates, intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization and Schmittel reaction, which provides a facile method for the synthesis of a variety of polycyclic benzo[b]fluorene derivatives from easily accessible starting materials.

Tandem Au(III)-catalyzed heterocyclization/Nazarov cyclizations leading to substituted carbocycle fused furans are described. An interesting dichotomy of reaction pathways as a function of solvent, confirmed by the isolation and trapping of reaction intermediates, provided a basis for computational studies that supported the experimental findings.

An operationally efficient CDI mediated tandem coupling and cyclization reaction to generate [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines has been reported. The reaction conditions and scope were investigated, and the methodology was demonstrated in batch mode as well as in a continuous process.

Total synthesis of ceratopicanol (1) was achieved with a tandem cycloaddition reaction of allenyl diazo compound 6 via a trimethylenemethane (TMM) diyl intermediate. The TMM diyl mediated [2+3] cycloaddition reaction furnished the consecutive quaternary carbon centers and showed an unusual diastereoselectivity.

A simple protocol, involving the green synthesis for the construction of novel bis-pyrimidine derivatives, 3a-i and 4a-e are accomplished by the aqueous diethylamine media promoted tandem Aldol-Michael reaction between two molecules of barbituric acid derivatives 1a,b with various aldehydes. This efficient synthetic protocol using an economic and environmentally friendly reaction media with ver...

a tandem agv configuration connects all cells of a manufacturing area by means of non-overlapping, sin-gle-vehicle closed loops. each loop has at least one additional p/d station, provided as an interface between adjacent loops. this study describes the development of three tabu search algorithms for the design of tandem agv systems. the first algorithm was developed based on the basic definiti...

An eco-friendly synthesis of highly functionalized epoxides and their incorporation into an organocatalytic multicomponent approach are reported. For this, a modified class of diarylprolinol silyl ethers was designed to enable high catalytic activity in an environmentally benign solvent system. The one-pot procedure showed great efficiency in promoting stereoselective multicomponent transformat...

an open-label, single-dose, randomized, 2-way crossover study was conducted in fasted healthy iranian male volunteers. eligible participants randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to be given one tablet of the test or reference formulation, followed by a 2-week washout period and administration of the exchange formulation. a quick and susceptible liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (lc-ms)...

In this article, we describe a fast and specific method to measure 5FU with HPLC tandem-mass spectrometry. Reversed-phase HPLC was combined with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry and detection was performed by multiple-reaction monitoring. Stable-isotope-labeled 5FU (1,3-15N2-5FU) was used as an internal standard. 5FU was measured within a single analytical run of 16 min with a l...
