Cascades Synthesis of N-Aryl Oxindole Nitrone Derivatives using Isatine Oximes and Arylboronic acids Catalyzed by Copper Acetate under Mild Conditions

Cu-catalysis was employed to create numerous (E)-5-bromo-N-aryl oxindole nitrones with satisfactory to excellent coupling efficiencies. This process involved the reaction of N-unprotected 5-bromoisatin-3-oximes and aryl-boronic acid derivatives under mild reactive conditions. Remarkably, the reaction exhibited tolerance towards several aryl-boronic acids containing diverse functional sensitivity subgroups (73% to 97% yields and 2 to 6 h). Extensive […]

Sulfuric acid {[3-(3-silicapropyl)sulfanyl]propyl}ester as a recyclable solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles

Sulfuric acid {[3-(3-silicapropyl)sulfanyl]propyl}ester (SASPSPE) is employed as a recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles. These syntheses were performed via a one-pot three-component condensation of aldehydes, amines, and trimethylsilyl cyanide under mild reaction conditions at room temperature. The catalyst could be recycled and reused several times without any loss of efficiency.

Silica-bonded n-propyltriethylene-tetramine as a recyclable solid base catalyst for the synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromenes

Silica-bonded n-propyltriethylene-tetramine (SBNPTT) was found as an efficient solid base for the synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromenes. Chromene derivatives were obtained via the three-component condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and dimedone at 80 oC under solvent-free conditions. The heterogeneous solid base showed much the same efficiency when used in consecutive reaction runs.
