Purines protected at N-9 by p-methoxybenzyl are methylated or ethylated in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol at N-7 by trimethyl- or triethyl-oxonium borofluorate, respectively. Subjecting the resulting cationic species to microwave irradiation releases an N(7)-methyl- or ethyl-purine. This one-pot procedure is an efficient regiospecific method applicable to diverse substrates.

A stereoselective one-pot procedure was developed to prepare S-substituted (Z)-enol esters through a base-triggered rearrangement. This transition metal-free multicomponent approach can be performed under an air atmosphere at room temperature, tolerates a wide set of chemical functionalities and generally affords high isolated yields. The (Z)-selectivity arises from the [1,4]-S- to O-acyl migra...

Herein we report a one-pot deoxygenation protocol for primary and secondary alcohols developed via the combination of the Garegg-Samuelsson reaction, visible light-photoredox catalysis, and flow chemistry. This procedure is characterized by mild reaction conditions, easy-to-handle reactants and reagents, excellent functional group tolerance, and good yields.

Reaction of various ketones with [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene (HTIB) followed by treatment of the α-tosyloxy ketones thus generated in situ with NaN3 offers a one-pot procedure for the synthesis of α-azido ketones. The HTIB used in this conversion may also be generated in situ by using iodosobenzene in combination with p-toluenesulphonic acid.

An efficient synthesis of 2H-thiopyran-3,4-dicarboxylate derivatives via one-pot reactions between acetylenic esters, arylisothiocyanates and enaminones in water is described.The advantages of this work were: (1) the reaction was performed under neutral and more important in water as the solvent. (2) No catalyst was required for this reaction. (3) The simplicity of the present procedure made it...

An efficient and environmentally friendly procedure for one-pot synthesis of 13-acetyl-9-methyl-11-ox-8-oxa-10,12-diazatricyclo [7.3.1. ] trideca-2,4,6-triene from salicylaldehyde, acetylaceton and urea via Biginelli condensation and intramolecular Michael-addition by using magnesium bromide as an expensive and easily available catalyst under solvent-free condition is desired. The structural el...

3,3,6,6-Tetramethyl-9-phenyl-3,4,6,7,9,10-hexahydroacridine-1,8-(2H,5H)-dione derivatives are synthesized by nano titanium dioxide as an efficient and reusable heterogeneous nano catalyst in a one pot multi component reaction. Easy preparation and separation of catalyst, simply workup procedure, clean reaction and reusability of the catalyst up to 7 times without appreciable loss of its catalyt...

Nanocrystalline alumina powder has been synthesized using solution combustion method. The obtained nanocrystalline alumina powder was used as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]azine derivatives from one-pot three component reaction of benzaldehyde, 2-aminoazine and trimethylsilylcyanide under ultrasonic irradiation and refluxing condition. Reusability of catalyst and shor...

The one pot reaction of glyoxal and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in aqueous sodium hydroxide was found to be a safe and inexpensive method for the preparation of diaminoglyoxime. By increasing stoichiometric ratio of the hydroxylamine hydrochloride and decreasing the solvent volume, the product yield increased considerably (~ 70%).
