The mechanism of the previously developed cross-coupling reaction of aryl Grignard reagents with aryl halides was explored in more detail. Single electron transfer from an aryl Grignard reagent to an aryl halide initiates a radical chain by giving an anion radical of the aryl halide. The following propagation cycle consists entirely of anion radical intermediates.

We report the Pd-catalyzed α-arylation of α,α-difluoroketones with aryl and heteroaryl bromides and chlorides catalyzed by an air- and moisture-stable palladacyclic complex containing P(t-Bu)Cy2 as ligand. The combination of this Pd-catalyzed arylation and base-induced cleavage of the acyl-aryl C-C bond within the α-aryl-α,α-difluoroketone constitutes a one-pot, two-step procedure to synthesize...

Human serum aryl acylamidase associated with serum cholinesterase was purified to homogeneity. Evidence for the identity of the two enzymes was based on co-elution profiles, co-purification in the different steps including affinity chromatography with constant ratios of specific activity and percentage recoveries, co-migration on gel electrophoresis, parallel inhibition by typical cholinesteras...

An investigation on the effect of substituent at the 2-position of mono-substituted quinoxalines in the synthesis of di-substituted quinoxaline derivatives via nucleophilic substitution reactions, is reported. Di-substituted quinoxalines bearing aryl-alky, aryl-aryl, aryl-heteroaryl, aryl-alkynyl, and amino-alkyl substituents were prepared in moderate to good yields. 2-Monosubstituted quinoxali...

The ruthenium(II)-catalyzed sp3 C-H bond arylation of benzylic amines with aryl halides is reported. In the present method, aryl iodides and, more importantly, also the cheaper aryl bromides and aryl chlorides can be applied as aryl sources. Additionally, the method does not require elaborate manipulations in a glove box and can be carried out in simple screw cap vials. Potassium pivalate prove...

6-carbethoxy-5-(3'-bromophenyl)-3-aryl-2-cyclohexenones 2a-j were obtained from the1-aryl-3-(3'-bromophenyl)-2-propene-1-ones 1a-j by micheal addition of ethyl acetoacetate, followed by internal claisen condensation. reaction of 2a-j with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding 6-aryl-4-(3'-bromophenyl)-3-oxo-2,3a,4,5-tetrahydro-2h-indazoles 3a-j. the structures of newly syn...

cellulose was applied as a reusable and green catalyst for the facile four-component synthesis of 6-amino-4-aryl-3-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carbonitrile derivatives using hydrazine monohydrate, ethyl acetoacetate, malononitrile and aryl aldehydes, under solvent-free and thermal conditions. the use of non-toxic and inexpensive catalyst, short reaction time, clean work-up and goo...

The biaryl structural motif is a predominant feature in many pharmaceutically relevant and biologically active compounds. As a result, for over a century1 organic chemists have sought to develop new and more efficient aryl-aryl bond-forming methods. Although there exist a variety of routes for the construction of aryl-aryl bonds, arguably the most common method is through the use of transition-...

nano-graphene oxide was synthesized by the oxidation of graphite powders. the structural nature of the nano-graphene oxide was characterized by a variety of techniques including xrd, tem, ft-ir and uv/vis. the functional groups on its basal planes and edges of nano-grahene oxide play important role in catalytic activity. the catalytic activity of nano-graphene oxide was investigated on crossed-...

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of alpha-aryl-beta,beta-difluoroenol silyl and alpha-aryl-beta-fluoroenol silyl ethers with aryl bromides proceed smoothly with good functional compatibility.
