A series of new 2-arylimino-3-aryl-5-[5?-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2?-furylidene]-4-thiazolidinones (3a-l) have been synthesised by the condensation of 5-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-furaldehyde 1 with 2-arylimino-3-aryl-5H-4-thiazolidinones 2 in glacial acetic acid. The physical and spectral data of the synthesised compounds are determined. The synthesised compounds have been screened for their in vitro ...

CdO nanoparticles efficiently catalyzes the condensation of aromatic aldehydes with 2-aminophenol at room temperature to afford 2-aryl benzoxazole derivatives by grinding method. The reactions proceed under heterogeneous and mild conditions to provide 2-aryl benzoxazoles in excellent yields (87-97 %) with high purity under solvent free condition. The reaction requires short time (5-23 minutes) ...

Air and moisture stable homoleptic bis(diimidazolylidine)nickel(II) complexes, ([(diNHC)(2)Ni](2+)) 3a,b and their corresponding silver(I) 4a,b and palladium(II) 5a,b complexes were synthesized and characterized by NMR and single crystal X-ray analysis. The catalytic potential of complex 3a was assessed in Mizoroki-Heck and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions. In the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling react...

Three new hydridosilazido ligands, ?N(SiHMe2)Aryl (Aryl = Ph, 2,6-C6Me2H3 (dmp), 2,6-C6iPr2H3 (dipp)) and their rare-earth complexes Ln{N(SiHMe2)Aryl}3(THF)n (Ln Sc, Y, Lu; Aryl n 2; dmp, 1; dipp, 0) were synthesized to study the relationships among ligand steric properties, secondary Ln?H–Si bonding, reactivity of amide SiH groups. In these compounds, encumbrance aryl group was systematically ...

Some 5-aryl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazole (I) reacted with maleic anhydride, maleic acid and p-benzoquinone affording 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)succinic anhydrides (II), 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)succinic acids (III) and 2-(2,5-dihydroxyphenylthio)-5-aryl-l,3,4-oxadiazoles (IV), respectively. Treatment of 2-methylthio-5-phenyl-l,3-oxadiazole (V) with amines gives 2-[(alkyl or ar...

First-row metal complexes often undergo undesirable one-electron redox processes during two-electron steps of catalytic cycles. We report the amination of aryl chlorides and bromides with primary aliphatic amines catalyzed by a well-defined, single-component nickel precursor (BINAP)Ni(η(2)-NC-Ph) (BINAP = 2,2'-bis(biphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthalene) that minimizes the formation of Ni(I) spec...

Using highly stable, readily accessible, and recyclable 2-(2-hydroxyprop-2-yl)cyclohexyl-substituted arylsilanes activated by a mild carbonate base, nickel-catalysed silicon-based aryl-aryl cross-coupling reaction proceeds for the first time with inexpensive aryl chlorides and tosylates in a highly chemoselective manner.

An efficient synthesis of novel 1-aryl-3-(indole-3-yl)-3-(2-aryl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)propan-1-ones from indoles and 1-aryl-3-(2-aryl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)propan-1-one using a Brønsted acid ionic liquid [Sbmim][HSO4] as catalyst is described. Satisfactory results with excellent yields and short reaction time were obtained in the experiments. The catalyst could be recovered conveniently and reused e...
