The reaction of (Z)-hydroximoyl chlorides with isocyanides promoted by phosphinic acid in the presence of triethylamine proceeds smoothly to afford α-(hydroxyimino)amides in good to high yields. Phosphinic acid plays an important role in effectively promoting the reaction. A wide range of (Z)-hydroximoyl chlorides and isocyanides were found to be suitable for this reaction.

[equation: see text] An efficient one-pot route to unsymmetrical diorganyl selenides has been developed by ruthenium(III) chloride catalyzed reactions of dibenzyl or diphenyl diselenides with alkyl halides in the presence of zinc. Organic iodides, bromides, and activated chlorides underwent the reactions efficiently. Unreactive organic chlorides also underwent the same type of selenation with s...

Manganese-induced early biochemical changes and effects of supplementation of magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) and antioxidant vitamins (A, C, D and E) were studied in rats intoxicated with manganese. Significant elevation in the level of chlorides in plasma, erythrocytes, liver and cerebellum, and a decrease in plasma inorganic phosphate (pi) with an increase in liver pi were observed in animals e...

Induction of male sterility by deployment of chemical hybridizing agents (CHAs) are important in heterosis breeding of self-pollinated crops like wheat, wherein the male and female organs are in the same flower. Taking a lead from the earlier work on rice, a total of 25 N-acylanilines comprising of malonanilates, acetoacetanilides, and acetanilides (including halogenated acetanilides) were synt...

A novel Pd-catalyzed intermolecular dehydrogenative annulation of aryl iodides and aryl carbamic chlorides for the efficient synthesis of phenanthridinone derivatives was developed. Simple aryl iodides and carbamic chlorides readily made from various anilines, a broad substrate scope with hetero/polycycles, as well as high-value products, make this direct dehydrogenative annulation approach ver...

Simple, efficient procedures for the monoarylation of acetate esters and aryl methyl ketones using aryl chlorides are presented. Previously, no general method was available to ensure the highly selective monoarylation of these classes of substrates using aryl chlorides. Using palladium precatalysts recently reported by our group, these reactions are easily accomplished under mild conditions tha...

some n¬-acyl-n'-aryl thiourea derivatives 4(a-f) have been prepared by the reaction of acyl halides ammonium thiocyanate and aryl amines. the structures of synthesized compounds have been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectral studies. the synthesized compounds 5(a-f) have been screened for antibacterial activity. the effect of the structure of the investigated compounds on the antibacterial activ...

(Hetero)aryl bis-acid chlorides and terminal alkynes, or likewise acid chlorides and terminal dialkynes, and ethyl 2-mercaptoacetate can be reacted to give highly luminescent symmetrical terthiophenes and quinquethiophenes in the sense of a consecutive pseudo-five-component reaction in good to excellent yields. Further functionalization of the obtained oligomers can be readily achieved by halog...
