Synthesis of new Schiff's base Zn-complexes for photo-oxidation of methyl arenes and xylenes are reported under visible light irradiation conditions. All the synthesized new ligands and Zn-complexes are thoroughly characterized with various spectral analyses and confirmed as 1:1 ratio of Zn and ligand with distorted octahedral structure. The bandgap energies of the ligands are higher than its Zn-complexes. These synthesized new Zn(II) complexes are used for the photo-fragmentation of organic dye pollutants, photodegradation of food industrial wastewater and oxidation of methyl arenes which are converted into its respective aldehydes with moderate yields under visible light irradiation. The photooxidation reaction dependency on the intensity of the visible light was also studied. With the increase in the dosage of photocatalyst, the methyl groups are oxidized to get aldehydes and mono acid products, which are also identified from LC-MS data. Finally, [Zn(PPMHT)Cl] is with better efficiency than [Zn(PTHMT)Cl] and [Zn(MIMHPT)Cl] for oxidation of methyl arenes is reported under visible-light-driven conditions.

The biological activities of shancigusin C (1) and bletistrin G (2), natural products isolated from orchids, are reported along with their first total syntheses. The total synthesis of shancigusin C (1) was conducted by employing the Perkin reaction to forge the central stilbene core, whereas the synthesis of bletistrin G (2) was achieved by the Wittig olefination followed by several regiose-lective aromatic substitution reactions. Both syntheses were completed by applying only renewable starting materials according to the principles of xylochemistry. The cytotoxic properties of shancigusin C (1) and bletistrin G (2) against tumor cells suggest suitability as a starting point for further structural variation.

Biomimetic oxidation of primary amines to carboxylic acids has been developed where the copper-containing amine oxidase (CuAO)-like o-NQ-catalyzed aerobic oxidation was combined with the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)-like TBHP-mediated imine oxidation protocol. Notably, the current tandem oxidation strategy provides a new mechanistic insight into the imine intermediate and the seemingly simple TBHP-mediated oxidation pathways of imines. The developed metal-free amine oxidation protocol allows the use of molecular oxygen and TBHP, safe forms of oxidant that may appeal to the industrial application.
