The indium compounds In(N(SiMe3)2)2Cl?THF (2) and In(N(SiMe3)2)Cl2?(THF)n (3) were shown to react with CO2 to give [(Me3Si)2N)InX(μ-OSiMe3)]2 (X=N(SiMe3)2 4, Cl 5). 0.05–2.0 mol % of the species 3 acts as a pre-catalyst for the conversion of aryl and alkyl silylamines under CO2 (2–3 atm) to give the corresponding ureas in 70–99 % yields. A proposed mechanism is supported by experimental and computational data.

P4VPy–CuO nanoparticles were synthesized using ultrasound irradiations. Relevant properties of the synthesized nanoparticles were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. After identification, the prepared reagent was used for the promotion of different types of protection reactions of alcohols, phenols and amines. Easy workup, short reaction times, excellent yields, relatively low cost and reusability of the catalyst are the striking features of the reported methods.

A series of N-(arylaminothio)phthalimide derivatives (7a-h) has been prepared by reaction of phthalimidesulphenyl chloride with the trimethylsilyl derivative of the appropriate arylamine.On treatment with triethylamine at room temperature, compounds (7) fragment to yield transient thionitroso species (8).Derivatives (8a-h) have been trapped in good yield as their Diels-Alder adducts with the following conjugated dienes: butadiene, 2.3-dimethylbutadiene, 1.4-diphenylbutadiene, (E,E)- and (E,Z)-hexa-2,4-diene, 1,1'-bicyclopentenyl (25) and 1,1'-bicyclohexenyl (26).The stereochemistry of the diene is retained in the adducts (19)-(24).Thionitrosoarene derivatives (8) also afford sulphenamide derivatives, e.g. (11) and (12)-(16), by ene addition to dimethylbutadiene, isobutene, and α-methylstyrene.N-Aryliminosulphur dichlorides (34) react with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene to yield 1,2-thiazine and sulphenamide products, probably by way of thionitrosoarene intermediates.
