This study reports the development of a novel substituted hydrazone prepared from 2-hydroxy-4,5-dimethylacetophenone and hydrazine in alkaline medium at controlled conditions which yields as corresponding hydrazone [(E)-2-(1-hydrazonoethyl)-4,5-dimethylphenol]. The structure of synthesized (E)-2-(1-hydrazonoethyl)-4,5-dimethylphenol was elucidated by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques like infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, proton nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrum.

Acetoxylation of arenes is an important reaction and an unmet need in chemistry. We report a metal-free, direct acetoxylation reaction using sodium nitrate under an anhydrous environment of trifluoroacetic acid, acetic acid, and acetic anhydride. Arenes (31 examples), with oxidation potentials (Eox, in V vs SCE) lower than benzene (2.48 V), were acetoxylated with good yields and regioselectivity. A stepwise, single electron-transfer mechanism is proposed.

Synthesis of valuable chemicals from lignin based compounds is critical for the application of biomass. Here, we develop a method of preparing aryl acetates by the carbonylation of aryl methyl ethers or phenols under low CO pressure. Good to excellent yields of aryl acetates were obtained using different substrates, and a possible reaction mechanism was proposed by conducting a series of control experiments. This method may provide a potential way for the utilization of lignin.

Cycloaddition reaction of 4-chloro-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehydes (3a-g) and 4-chloro-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehydes (7a-h) with activated alkynes (4a-b) provided the 2-oxo-2H-chromenyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates (5a-n) and 2H-chromenyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates (8a-p). All the prepared compounds were screened for anti-inflammatory activity. In vitro anti-inflammatory activity data demonstrated that the compounds 5g, 5i, 5k-l and 8f are effective among the tested compounds against TNF-α (1.108 ± 0.002, 0.423 ± 0.022, 0.047 ± 0.001, 0.070 ± 0.002 and 0.142 ± 0.001 μM) in comparison with standard compound Prednisolone (0.033 ± 0.002 μM). Based on in vitro results, three compounds (5i, 5k and 8f) have been selected for in vivo experiments and these compounds are identified as better compounds with respect to anti-inflammatory activity in LPS induced mice model. Compound 5i was identified as potent and showed significant reduction in TNF-α and IL-6.

The catalytic transformation of aryl esters to hydroxyacetophenones via Fries rearrangement over solid acids is of interest to avoid the use of corrosive and toxic Lewis and Br?nsted acids traditionally applied. Microporous zeolites are known to catalyze the reaction of simple substrates such as phenyl acetate, but their application to substituted derivatives has received limited attention. To refine structure-activity relationships, here we examine the impact of various parameters including the solvent polarity, water content, acidic properties, and framework type on the reaction scheme in the Fries rearrangement of p-tolyl acetate over common solid acids. The results confirm the importance of providing a high concentration of accessible Br?nsted acid sites, with beta zeolites exhibiting the best performance. Extension of the substrate scope by substituting methyl groups in multiple positions identifies a framework-dependent effect on the rearrangement chemistry and highlights the potential for the transformation of dimethylphenyl acetates. Kinetic studies show that the major competitive path of cleavage of the ester C-O bond usually occurs in parallel to the Fries rearrangement. The possibility of sequentially acylating the resulting phenol depends on the substrate and reaction conditions.

The palladium-catalyzed C?H oxidation of simple arenes is an attractive strategy to obtain phenols, which have many applications in the fine chemicals industry. Although some advances have been made in this research area, low reactivity and selectivity are, in general, observed. This report describes a new catalytic system for the efficient C?H acetoxylation of simple arenes based on Pd(OAc)2 and a pyridinecarboxylic acid ligand.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A new synthesis of dibenzopyranones 14 is reported via the Diels-Alder cycloaddition of 4-cyanocoumarins 12 with 1-silyloxydienes 10 to give the adducts 13 which are then converted into 14 in one step via treatment with base and loss of the cyano and silyloxy groups.

The combination of microwave irradiation and montmorillonite [H +] clay catalyst dramatically enhances the rate of formation of acetates of alcohols, phenols and amines when treated with acetic anhydride. A series of acetates have been prepared with significantly low reaction times in very good to excellent yields.
A novel method for the nitration of simple aromatic compounds
Smith, Keith,Musson, Adam,DeBoos, Gareth A.
, p. 8448 - 8454 (2007/10/03)
Simple aromatic compounds such as benzene, alkylbenzenes, halogenobenzenes, and some disubstituted benzenes are nitrated in excellent yields with high regioselectivity under mild conditions using zeolite β as a catalyst and a stoichiometric quantity of nitric acid and acetic anhydride. The zeolite can be recycled, and the only byproduct is acetic acid, which can be separated easily from the nitration product by distillation; the process is inexpensive and represents an attractive method for the clean synthesis of a range of nitroaromatic compounds. For example, nitration of toluene gives a quantitative yield of mononitrotoluenes, of which 79% is 4-nitrotoluene; fluorobenzene gives a quantitative yield of mononitro compounds, of which 94% is 4-nitrofluorobenzene; and 2-fluorotoluene gives a 96% yield of mononitro products, of which 90% is the 5-nitro isomer and 10% is the 4-nitro isomer.
