Rhenium complex, [ReBr(CO)3(thf)]2-catalyzed reactions between aromatic imines and either acetylenes or α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds gave indene derivatives in good to excellent yields. These reactions proceed via C–H bond activation, insertion of acetylenes or α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization, and reductive elimination. Indene derivatives were a...

ammonium monovanadate (nh4vo3) has been devoted as an efficient, commercially available, eco-friendly and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes (bims), oxindole derivatives and also michael adducts of indoles at 50 °c under solvent-free conditions. the reusability of this solid acid catalyst in addition with its selectivity has also been examined.

the difficult to handle and store zinc borohydride, zn(bh4)2, is stabilized by supporting it on polyvinylpyridine. this new mild, efficient, selective, and regenerable polymer supported borohydride reducing agent reduces a variety organic compounds such as, aldehydes, a-b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, acid chlorides, epoxides, disulfides, as well as reductive acetylation of carbonyl compounds...

Condensation of aromatic aldehydes with benzoyl acetone under specified conditions yieldedtwo series of polycarbonyl compounds in which the keto group is attached to olefinic linkage.Spectral and analytical data revealed the formation of an unsaturated triketone from pyridine-3-carbaldehyde and unsaturated diketone from furfural, salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde. Analytical, IR, 1H N...

a new efficient method for the synthesis of carboacyclic nucleosides as biologically interesting compounds via aza-conjugate addition of pyrimidine nucleobases to a,β-unsaturated esters in the presence of catalytic amount of lioh.h2o (1.2-4.8 mol%) under microwave irradiation is described. this method affords the title compounds in good to excellent yields and in short reaction times.

Introduction: Bifunctional radiosensitizer agents in which nitroaromatic moieties are attached through a linker to antineoplastic moieties have demonstrated higher cytotoxicity and radiosensitizer effects than the corresponding counterparts. This study was conducted to investigate the cytotoxicity and radiosensitizer activities of 2, 4-dinitrobenzene as a radiosensitizer moiety...

An easy to operate method of catalytic hydroboration of unsaturated compounds has been developed with wide substrate scope. Reactions of various aldimines, ketimines, α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, and alkynes were successfully executed with bis(pinacolato)diboron and N-heterocyclic carbenes in methanol without requiring a transition metal or inert atmosphere.
