- A multistep flow process for the synthesis of highly functionalized benzoxazoles
-
An efficient and scalable transformation of 3-halo-N-acyl anilines to the corresponding benzoxazoles within a continuous flow reactor is reported. This transformation proceeds via base-mediated deprotonation, ortho-lithiation, and intramolecular cyclization to provide unstable lithiated benzoxazole moieties. The subsequent in-line electrophilic quench results in the formation of substituted benzoxazoles in high yield and quality. Continuous flow technology allowed for accurate temperature control and immediate in-line quench while minimizing the hold-up time for the unstable lithiated intermediates thereby minimizing associated byproduct formation.

- Synthesis of 4-Alkenyl Benzoxazoles via Pd-catalyzed ortho C?H Functionalization of 2-Amidophenols
-
A one-pot direct transformation to remotely C?H alkene functionalized 2-aryl benzoxazoles from the reaction of amidophenol and electronically deficient olefin was reported. Control experiments confirm that the Pd-catalyzed regioselective C?H activation/alkenylation occurs at the first step by leading to ortho-alkenylated amidophenol; which subsequently underwent tandem intramolecular annulation to afford C4-alkenylated 2-arylbenzoxazole derivatives.

- A key role for iodobenzene in the direct C-H bond functionalisation of benzoxazoles using PhI(OAc)2 mediated by a Pd(OAc) 2/1,10-phenanthroline catalyst system: In situ formation of well-defined Pd nanoparticles
-
PhI(OAc)2 has previously been reported as a reagent for the direct arylation of C-H bonds in benzoxazole in a PdII/IV-mediated process. However, evidence reported here suggests this reagent degrades to iodobenzene under the literature reported reaction conditions. Further, we present evidence for the rapid formation of Pd0 nanoparticles in this reaction, leading us to question what is the active catalytic Pd phase in coupling chemistry?.

- DMF-Assisted Radical Cyclization of o-Isocyanodiaryl Ethers via 1,5-Aryl Migration: Construction of 2-Arylbenzoxazoles
-
A novel DMF-assisted radical cyclization of o-isocyanodiaryl ethers via 1,5-aryl migration has been developed for the synthesis of a series of 2-arylbenzoxazoles by the FeCl3/TBHP/Et3N catalytic system in DMF. However, N,N-dimethylbenzo[d]thiazole-2-carboxamide and N,N-dimethylbenzo[d]selenazole-2-carboxamide were obtained from the corresponding substrate 2-isocyanophenyl p-methoxyphenyl thioether and 2-isocyanodiphenyl selenoether under the same conditions. A possible mechanism may involve aryl 1,5-migration and DMF-assisted radical cyclization of o-isocyanodiaryl ethers.

- Investigation of Pd-PEPPSI catalysts and coupling partners towards direct C2-arylation/heteroarylation of benzoxazole
-
2-Aryl/heteroaryl-substituted benzoxazoles are important heterocyclic motifs extensively found in several bioactive molecules, pharmaceuticals and natural products. In view of the importance of these compounds, there is need to develop easiest and simplest synthetic routes. The motive of this current work is to conduct the direct C2-arylation reaction on benzoxazole with various cross-coupling partners like aryl/heteroaryl halide/carboxylic acid/diazonium tetrafluoroborate/sulfonyl chloride/boronic acids in the presence of different symmetrical and unsymmetrical Pd-PEPPSI (pyridine-enhanced pre-catalyst preparation by stabilization initiation) catalysts via C (sp2)–C (sp2) bond formation. Compared with other coupling partners, boronic acids coupled with benzoxazole very efficiently in the presence of sterically and electronically tunable bulky1,3-bis(N,N′-2,4,6-triisopropylbenzyl)benzimidazolium-Pd-PEPPSI complex in open air to offer the corresponding C2-aryl/heteroaryl benzoxazole compounds. Further, it is worthy to mention that there is no need of any external oxidant/ligand/additive for the complete conversion of starting molecules to products. The reactions progressed successfully with a wide range of substrate scope and attained the products in good to excellent yields in a short reaction time in ethanol/water (1:1) medium. Greatly, catalysts can be recovered and reused for few cycles with significant reactivity.

- Stable Pd(0) Complexes with Ferrocene Bisphosphanes Bearing Phosphatrioxaadamantyl Substituents Efficiently Catalyze Selective C-H Arylation of Benzoxazoles by Aryl Chlorides
-
Versatile applications and unique performance of 1,1’-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene (dppf) in coordination chemistry and catalysis prompted the search for its analogs. This contribution describes the synthesis of the first donor-unsymmetric dppf congeners bearing bulky and rigid 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,4,6-trioxa-8-phosphaadamantyl (CgP) donor groups, viz. Ph2PfcPCg (1) and Ph2PfcCH2PCg (2; fc=ferrocene-1,1’-diyl). Bis-phosphanes 1 and 2 were converted into air-stable Pd(0) complexes, [Pd(ma)(L^L)] (L^L=1 and 2; ma=maleic anhydride). Together with [Pd(ma)(dppf)], these complexes were applied as catalysts in Pd-catalyzed C?H arylation of benzoxazoles with aryl chlorides in n-butanol as an environmentally benign solvent. Among all catalysts tested in this study, complex [Pd(ma)(2)] performed the best, providing a high-yield and selective synthesis of 2-arylbenzoxazoles from a range of the generally less reactive chloroarenes at low catalyst loading (typically 1 mol.%). Under similar conditions, the structurally related heterocycles (e. g., 1-methylbenzimidazole and benzothiazole) did not react.

- Novel and efficient heterogeneous polymer supported copper catalyst for synthesis of 2-substituted Benzoxazoles from 2-Haloanilides
-
A novel polymer supported copper complex is prepared by the immobilization of copper iodide on chemically modified polyacrylonitrile and its application in heterogeneous catalysis is described. The catalyst was prepared by easy method via synthetic modification of Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) using ethylene diamine followed by the complexation with CuI. After characterization, this complex was explored as a green and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 2-benzoxazoles from 2-haloanilides. The reaction was performed without adding additional ligand and the catalyst shows activity over a broad range of substrates with quantitative product yields. The catalyst was easily recovered by simple filtration and reused successfully for further cycle.

- Heterocyclic reaction inducted by Br?nsted–Lewis dual acidic Hf-MOF under microwave irradiation
-
Use of green chemistry and alternative strategies has been explored to prepare diverse organic derivatives. The combination between heterogeneous catalyst, environmentally benign reaction and high-yielding methods is gaining momentum. Herein, a defective 6-connected Hf-MOF, named Hf-BTC, was efficiently synthesized and characterized for the heterogeneous catalysis under microwave irradiation. The MOF features including structural defect, porosity, acidity, and stability was analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption isotherms, acid-base titration, and thermal gravimetric analysis. In the catalytic studies, the Br?nsted-Lewis dual acidic Hf-BTC was efficiently applied for the synthesis of the heterocyclic compounds via the microwave-assisted cycloaddition and condensation reactions. The reactions proceeded smoothly in the presence of the Hf-MOF with a broad scope of substrates provided the expected products in high to excellent yields (up to 99 %) for few minutes and the catalyst could be easily recycle over many consecutive reactions without loss of its reactivity and structure.

The palladium complex of dendronized amine polymer (EG–Gn–Pd, n = 0, 1 and 2) having ethylene glycol-initiated polyepichlorohydrin as core was synthesized on a Merrifield resin support and was well characterized. Generally, palladium catalysts are known for carbon–carbon coupling reactions. Here, a developed catalyst was found to be good for benzoxazole synthesis. Higher generation dendronized polymer (EG–G2–Pd) was found to be better catalyst over lower generation dendronized polymers. Moreover, dendronized polymers were found to be a better catalyst over dendrigraft polymers. The catalyst reusability was checked and good yield was obtained for five cycles.

- 1-Methylimidazolium ionic liquid supported on Ni@zeolite-Y: fabrication and performance as a novel multi-functional nanocatalyst for one-pot synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles and 2-aryl benzimidazoles
-
In the present study, 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride-supported Ni@zeolite-Y-based nanoporous materials (Ni@zeolite-Im-IL) were synthesized and their structures were confirmed using different characterization techniques such as FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDX, XRD, BET and TGA-DTG analyses. In order to synthesize this multi-functional nano-system, zeolite-NaY was modified first, with exchanged Ni2+ ions and 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane (CPTES) as a coupling reagent and then functionalized to imidazolium chloride ionic liquid by N-methylimidazole. New multi-functional nano-material of Ni@zeolite-Im-IL demonstrated high activity in the catalytic synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles 3a–l by one-pot reaction of methylcarbonyls, thiourea and iodine at 80?°C in DMSO with good to excellent yields (85–98%). Also, the catalytic synthesis of 2-aryl benzimidazoles, 6a–m was performed by the condensational reaction of o-arylendiamine and aromatic aldehydes in EtOH at room temperature with excellent yields (90–98%). Advantages of this efficient synthetic strategy include higher purity and shorter reaction time, excellent yield, easy isolation of products, the good stability, activity and feasible reusability of the metallic ionic liquid nanocatalyst. These benefits have made this method more compatible with the principles of green chemistry. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Electrochemical Generation of Hypervalent Bromine(III) Compounds
-
In sharp contrast to hypervalent iodine(III) compounds, the isoelectronic bromine(III) counterparts have been little studied to date. This knowledge gap is mainly attributed to the difficult-to-control reactivity of λ3-bromanes as well as to their challenging preparation from the highly toxic and corrosive BrF3 precursor. In this context, we present a straightforward and scalable approach to chelation-stabilized λ3-bromanes by anodic oxidation of parent aryl bromides possessing two coordinating hexafluoro-2-hydroxypropanyl substituents. A series of para-substituted λ3-bromanes with remarkably high redox potentials spanning a range from 1.86 V to 2.60 V vs. Ag/AgNO3 was synthesized by the electrochemical method. We demonstrate that the intrinsic reactivity of the bench-stable bromine(III) species can be unlocked by addition of a Lewis or a Br?nsted acid. The synthetic utility of the λ3-bromane activation is exemplified by oxidative C?C, C?N, and C?O bond forming reactions.

Diphenoxo bridged dinuclear zinc complexes, [Zn2(Phimp)2(Cl)2] (1) (PhimpH = (E)-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), [Zn2(Me-Phimp)2(Cl)2] (2) (Me-PhimpH = (E)-4-methyl-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), [Zn2(OMe-Phimp)2(Cl)2] (3) (OMe-PhimpH = (E)-4-methoxy-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), were synthesized and spectroscopically characterized. The molecular structure of 2 was determined using X-ray crystallography. DFT and TD-DFT calculations were performed to optimize the molecular geometry, interpret the spectroscopic results and investigate the contribution of the ligands to the redox properties of the complexes. Phenoxyl radical complexes were generated in solution via chemical oxidation using ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) and the redox properties were examined through cyclic voltammetric measurements. The hydrolysis of para-nitrophenylphosphate (PNPP) by all the dinuclear zinc complexes was investigated to mimic phosphatase activity. Catalytic oxidative cyclization by these complexes and synthesis of benzoxazole derivatives was investigated.

We report the synthesis of two palladium 2-(dialkylphosphino)imidazole complexes and demonstrate their activity as catalysts for Suzuki-Miyaura reactions with (hetero)aryl chlorides at room temperature. Our mechanistic studies demonstrate that these palladium complexes exist as an equilibrium mixture between the P-N coordinated and N-H NHC forms of ligand. Our studies suggest that the N-H NHC form may be important for high catalytic activity in Suzuki-Miyaura reactions with aryl chlorides. These reactions proceed at or near room temperature in good to excellent yields. Heteroaryl chlorides are also reactive at lower catalyst loadings.

While persulfate activation at room temperature using glucose has primarily been focused on kinetic studies of the sulfate radical anion, the utilization of this protocol in organic synthesis is rarely demonstrated. We reinvestigated selected K2S2O8-mediated known organic reactions that invariably require higher temperatures and an organic solvent. A diverse, mild functionalization and synthesis of heterocycles using the inexpensive oxidant K2S2O8 in water at room temperature is reported, demonstrating the sustainability and broad scope of the method. Unlike traditional methods used for persulfate activation, the current method uses naturally abundant glucose as a K2S2O8 activator, avoiding the use of higher temperature, UV light, transition metals or bases.

- Delivering 2-Aryl Benzoxazoles through Metal-Free and Redox-Neutral De-CF3Process

An unexpected cleavage of the Csp3-CF3 bond of CF3-hydrobenzoxazoles has been disclosed, affording a range of 2-aryl benzoxazoles under metal-free and redox-neutral conditions. This transformation has demonstrated broad substrate scope and good compatibility of functional groups. 2-Aryl benzothiazole and 2-aryl benzoimidazole could be smoothly assembled in the same manner. On the basis of preliminary mechanistic studies, base initiated and aromatization driven β-carbon elimination was considered to be the key step for the formation of 2. This reaction offers an alternative, facile, and sustainable route to access important 2-aryl benzoxazole motifs.

- UV-visible light-induced photochemical synthesis of benzimidazoles by coomassie brilliant blue coated on W-ZnO@NH2nanoparticles

Heterogeneous photocatalysts proffer a promising method to actualize eco-friendly and green organic transformations. Herein, a new photochemical-based methodology is disclosed in the preparation of a wide range of benzimidazoles through condensation of o-phenylenediamine with benzyl alcohols in the air under the illumination of an HP mercury lamp in the absence of any oxidizing species catalyzed by a new photocatalyst W-ZnO@NH2-CBB. In this photocatalyst, coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) is heterogenized onto W-ZnO@NH2 to improve the surface characteristics at the molecular level and enhance the photocatalytic activity of both W-ZnO@NH2 and CBB fragments. This unprecedented heterogeneous nanocatalyst is also identified by means of XRD, FT-IR, EDS, TGA-DTG, and SEM. The impact of some influencing parameters on the synthesis route and effects on the catalytic efficacy of W-ZnO@NH2-CBB are also assessed. The appropriate products are attained for both the electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents in the utilized aromatic alcohols. Furthermore, preparation of benzimidazoles is demonstrated to occur mainly via a radical mechanism, which shows that reactive species such as ·O2-, OH and h+ would be involved in the photocatalytic process. Stability and reusability studies also warrant good reproducibility of the nanophotocatalyst for at least five runs. Eventually, a hot filtration test proved that the nanohybrid photocatalyst is stable in the reaction medium. Using an inexpensive catalyst, UV-vis light energy and air, as a low cost and plentiful oxidant, puts this methodology in the green chemistry domain and energy-saving organic synthesis strategies. Finally, the anticancer activity of W-ZnO nanoparticles is investigated on MCF7 breast cancer cells by MTT assay. This experiment reveals that the mentioned nanoparticles have significant cytotoxicity towards the selected cell line.

A wide array of benzimidazoles were also prepared via a borrowing hydrogen approach involving alcohols as hydrogen donors and 2-nitroanilines as hydrogen acceptors. A few control experiments were performed to understand the reaction mechanism.

- Photocatalytic green synthesis of benzazoles from alcohol oxidation/toluene sp3C-H activation over metal-free BCN: effect of crystallinity and N-B pair exposure
-
Porous borocarbonitride (P-BCN), with the characteristics of enhanced crystallinity and improved N-B pair exposure, was prepared with a simple KCl-assisted molten salt strategy. Efficient heterogeneous photocatalytic tandem synthesis of benzazoles from alcohol oxidation/toluene sp3C-H activation was achieved firstly over the metal-free P-BCN using visible light and the green oxidant O2, with only water as a by-product. Variouso-thio/hydroxy/aminoanilines and alcohols or toluenes could be converted to the corresponding 2-substituted benzothiazoles, benzoxazoles and benzimidazoles with good to excellent photocatalytic performance. The improved photocatalytic performance in comparison to bulk BCN should be due to the crystallinity-enhancement-induced improvement in charge separation and transmission. The increased N-B pair exposure promoted superoxide radical generation due to the electron-enriched N atoms, as well as improved oxidation ability due to the valence band constructed by the B 2p orbital. This work presents a green and efficient synthetic strategy towards benzazoles and other fine chemicalsviametal-free heterogeneous photocatalysis.

- Bimetallic Cooperative Catalysis for Decarbonylative Heteroarylation of Carboxylic Acids via C-O/C-H Coupling
-
Cooperative bimetallic catalysis is a fundamental approach in modern synthetic chemistry. We report bimetallic cooperative catalysis for the direct decarbonylative heteroarylation of ubiquitous carboxylic acids via acyl C-O/C-H coupling. This novel catalytic system exploits the cooperative action of a copper catalyst and a palladium catalyst in decarbonylation, which enables highly chemoselective synthesis of important heterobiaryl motifs through the coupling of carboxylic acids with heteroarenes in the absence of prefunctionalization or directing groups. This cooperative decarbonylative method uses common carboxylic acids and shows a remarkably broad substrate scope (>70 examples), including late-stage modification of pharmaceuticals and streamlined synthesis of bioactive agents. Extensive mechanistic and computational studies were conducted to gain insight into the mechanism of the reaction. The key step involves intersection of the two catalytic cycles via transmetallation of the copper–aryl species with the palladium(II) intermediate generated by oxidative addition/decarbonylation.

The advantages of this protocol are practical simplicity, large substrate scope, moderate to excellent yields, and the use of water as the solvent.

- Diversity in Heterocycle Synthesis Using α-Iminocarboxylic Acids: Decarboxylation Dichotomy
-
Despite the structural similarity with imines, α-iminocarboxylic acids have seldom been used in heterocycles synthesis. The reactions of ortho-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylic acids in DMSO at 40 °C gave various benzo-fused five- to six-membered N-heterocycles in good to excellent yields. The reaction proceeds via intramolecular Michael addition of α-iminocarboxylic acids, generated in situ, with an ortho-substituted nucleophile, yielding an isolable unprecedented tetrahedral carboxylic acids, which upon decarboxylation without any aid of additional reagents forms the N-heterocycles. DMSO is crucial in this reaction, perhaps because of improved solubility and the ease of decarboxylation of these tetrahedral carboxylic acids. However, a copper-catalyzed reaction of ortho-substituted anilines and 2-bromoarylglyoxylic acids gave a dibenzo-fused seven-membered N-heterocycle under a basic reaction condition. Unlike intramolecular cyclization with α-iminocarboxylic acids in the first case, α-iminocarboxylic acid undergoes a competitive decarboxylation under the copper-catalyzed conditions, which upon subsequent heteroarylation form the heterocycles. Taken together, the study described herein represents two different modes of decarboxylation observed with α-iminocarboxylic acids, leading to the synthesis of divergent heterocycles and pharmaceuticals, which remained unexplored previously.

- Photoinduced Heterogeneous C?H Arylation by a Reusable Hybrid Copper Catalyst
-
Heterogeneous copper catalysis enabled photoinduced C?H arylations under exceedingly mild conditions at room temperature. The versatile hybrid copper catalyst provided step-economical access to arylated heteroarenes, terpenes and alkaloid natural products with various aryl halides. The hybrid copper catalyst could be reused without significant loss of catalytic efficacy. Detailed studies in terms of TEM, HRTEM and XPS analysis of the hybrid copper catalyst, among others, supported its outstanding stability and reusability.

- Visible Light-Induced Copper-Catalyzed C—H Arylation of Benzoxazoles?
-
A general method for visible light-induced copper-catalyzed arylation of sp2 C—H bonds of azoles has been developed. The method employs aryl halide as the coupling partner, lithium alkoxide as base. A variety of azoles including benzooxazole and benzothiazole can be arylated. Furthermore, electron-poor heterocycles such as thiophene possessing one electron-withdrawing group can also be arylated.

- Phosphine-phosphonium ylides as ligands in palladium-catalysed C2-H arylation of benzoxazoles
-
As balanced electron-rich P,C-chelating ligands, phosphine-phosphonium-ylides are considered for their ability to in situ promote palladium-catalysed direct C(sp2)–H arylation. Using methyl phosphonium salts of 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphtyl (“methyl-BINAPIUM”) as ylide precursors under optimized reaction conditions, arylation of benzoxazole was found to proceed in moderate to high yield to give functional 2-aryl benzoxazoles. A strong anion effect of the non-salt free ylide was evidenced (TfO? > I? > PF6? ≈ salt-free). This first example of phosphonium ylides as ligands in catalytic C–H activation extends the prospect of their general implementation in homogeneous transition metal catalysis.

- Development of homogeneous polyamine organocatalyst for the synthesis of 2-aryl-substituted benzimidazole and benzoxazole derivatives
-
A new polyamine was prepared by the ring opening polymerization of epichlorohydrin and properly characterized. The catalytic property of the prepared polymer was assessed by synthesizing 2-aryl-substituted benzimidazole and benzoxazole derivatives by the conjugation of o-phenylenediamine/o-aminophenol with various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. Significant attributes of the present synthesis include short reaction time, good to excellent yield, high purity, easy reusability, and room temperature reaction. The reaction was carried out in the absence of any metal catalyst and other cooxidants.

- Synthesis and X-ray crystal structures of three new nickel(II) complexes of benzoylhydrazones: Catalytic applications in the synthesis of 2-arylbenzoxazoles
-
Three new complexes of nickel(II), having general formula [Ni(L1)(PPh3)] (1), [Ni(L1)(4-picoline)] (2), and [Ni(L2)(4-picoline)] (3) were synthesized by the reaction of Ni(OAc)2·4H2O with corresponding benzolyhydrazine-derived Schiff base ligands i.e. [4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzylidene]-benzohydrazonic acid (H2L1) or [2-(hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene]-benzohydrazonic acid (H2L2) and PPh3/4-picoline as co-ligand in 1:1:1 ratio in methanol. All the three complexes were air-stable, isolated as reddish brown solids and characterized by Elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H, 13C{1H}, 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The structures of all three complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies which revealed the distorted square planar geometry of the complexes. In these complexes, three coordination sites were occupied by ONO pincer type Schiff base ligand and the fourth site was blocked by phosphorus (P) or nitrogen (N) atom of the co-ligand. The catalytic potential of all three complexes was explored in the synthesis of a series of 2-arylbenzoxazoles from aldehydes and 2-aminophenol, using low catalyst loading (0.5 mol%). Complex 1 was found to be the best catalyst among three complexes, for the synthesis of a series of 2-aryl benzoxazoles. The ease of synthesis, air-stability and robustness of the catalyst, and good TONs are some of the key characteristics of the described catalytic system.

- Direct Oxygenation of C-H Bonds through Photoredox and Palladium Catalysis
-
This report presents the oxygenation of C-H bonds via the merger of photocatalysis and Pd catalysis. Herein, we describe the utilization of a photocatalyst to oxidize an organopalladium(II) intermediate to high-valent PdIII or PdIV intermediates, which promotes the formation of C-O bonds. The demonstrated method works efficiently with various directing groups, such as oxime ether and benzothiazole. The applicability of this direct C-O bond formation method is shown by synthesizing several metal complexes of 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenol that can be used in organic light-emitting diodes and pharmaceuticals.

- Oxidative NHC catalysis for base-free synthesis of benzoxazinones and benzoazoles by thermal activated NHCs precursor ionic liquid catalyst using air as oxidant
-
A reusable thermal activated NHC precursor ionic liquid catalyst ([BMIm]2[WO4]) has been prepared and developed for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles such as benzoxazinones and benzoazoles through imines activation. [BMIm]2[WO4] exhibited the good activity for the base-free condensation and oxidative NHC catalysis tandem under air atmosphere. The catalyst can be recovered and reused for at least five runs in gram scale synthesis without any decrease in catalytic activity. Furthermore, the control experiments demonstrated that the reaction involved formation of aromatic aldimines, NHC-catalyzed oxidative formation of imidoyl azoliums and intramolecular cyclization to generate the product.

- Straightforward synthesis of benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles via photocatalytic radical cyclization of 2-substituted anilines with aldehydes
-
Eosin Y-catalyzed one-pot coupling and cyclization of o-substituted anilines with aldehydes to form benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles under mild condition has been developed. The reaction scope was broadly tolerant of various 2-substituted anilines and aldehydes. The desired products were obtained in high yields with the use of eosin Y as a photocatalyst under a substantial refinement of reaction conditions in comparison with previous literature. Based on the experimental results observed, a plausible mechanism involving a radical process has been proposed.

- In-vitro Anti-cancer assay and apoptotic cell pathway of newly synthesized benzoxazole-N-heterocyclic hybrids as potent tyrosine kinase inhibitors
-
A series of benzoxazole-N-heterocyclic hybrids have been synthesized by a one-pot strategy. Molecular docking study revealed that such compounds have the ability to inhibit enzyme protein tyrosine kinase. The findings of this work have been the successful synthesis of benzoxazole scaffolds, featuring hybrids of benzoxazole with quinoline and quinoxaline respectively. The molecular docking studies have showed these compounds to be inhibitors of tyrosine kinase enzyme which triggers growth of cancer cells. The cytotoxicity study of compounds 4a-f showed better potency against breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 in contrast to oral and lung cancer cell lines KB and A549. The tyrosine kinase activity was measured using Universal Tyrosine Kinase Assay kit using horseradish peroxide (HRP)-conjugated anti-phosphotyrosine kinase solution as a substrate. The compounds 4c exhibited maximum inhibition in the activity of enzyme tyrosine kinase with IC50 value 0.10 ± 0.16 μM, than other compounds which were studied and thus proved to be inhibitors of enzyme tyrosine kinase. The selective index of all four compounds was found out to be greater than two, indicating the non-toxic behaviour, i.e. good anti-cancer activity. Further, fluorescence microscopic study helped to characterize the mode of cell death, which was found to be late apoptosis as indicated by the orange fluorescence. The SAR analysis has also been carried out.

Elemental sulfur (S8) was found to be an excellent stoichiometric oxidant to promote oxidative condensation of 2-aminophenols with a wide range of aldehydes, including aliphatic aldehyde such as cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde. The reactions were catalyzed by sodium sulfide in the presence of DMSO as an additive. The benzoxazole products were obtained in satisfactory yields. The reaction conditions could be applied to larger syntheses (10–50 mmol).

- Visible-Light-Promoted Efficient Aerobic Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles by a Tiny Organic Semiconductor Under Ambient Conditions
-
An efficient reusable catalytic system has been developed based on perylene diimide (PDI) organic semiconductor for the aerobic dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles with visible light. This practical catalytic system without any additives proceeds under ambient conditions. The minute aggregates of PDI molecules on the surface of SiO2 nanospheres form tiny organic semiconductors, resulting in high-efficiency photo-oxidative activity. Notably, the robustness of this method is demonstrated by the synthesis of a wide range of N-heteroarenes, gram-scale experiments as well as reusability tests.

- Nickel catalysed construction of benzazoles: Via hydrogen atom transfer reactions
-
Herein we report a homogeneous, phosphine free, inexpensive nickel catalyst that forms a wide variety of benzazoles from alcohol and diamines by a reaction sequence of alcohol oxidation, imine formation, ring cyclization and dehydrogenative aromatization. A reversible azo/hydrazo couple, that is part of the ligand architecture steers both the alcohol oxidation and dehydrogenation of the annulated amine under fairly mild reaction conditions. Interestingly, both the alcohol oxidation and amine dehydrogenation steps are directly mediated by hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), which is greatly facilitated by the reduced ligand backbone. The kH/kD for the amine dehydrogenation step, measured at 60 °C is 5.9, fully consistent with HAT as the rate determining factor during this step. This is a unique scenario where two consecutive oxidation steps towards benzazole formation undergo HAT, which has been substantiated via kinetic studies, KIE determination and intermediate isolation.

- Pyrazole-3-carboxylates assisted N-heterocyclic carbene palladium complexes: synthesis, characterization, and catalytic activities towards arylation of azoles with arylsulfonyl hydrazides

Four mononuclear and dinuclear pyrazole-3-carboxylates assisted NHC–Pd complexes have been synthesized and characterized. Notably, the bridge-cleavage reactions of [Pd(μ-Cl)(Cl)(NHC)]2 with 1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid afforded dinuclear complexes [(NHC)Pd(μ-1H-pyrazolato-3-carboxylate)]2, in which the 1H-pyrazolato-3-carboxylate was employed as a N^N^O dianionic chelating and bridging ligand. To further explore the structural features and catalytic properties of the complexes, 1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid was introduced into the coordination with [Pd(μ-Cl)(Cl)(NHC)]2 and the corresponding mononuclear complexes (NHC)PdCl(1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate) were obtained. The catalytic properties of the complexes in desulfitative arylation of azoles with arylsulfonyl hydrazides were initially investigated.

A Pd-catalyzed aerobic approach to access C4-aryl benzoxazoles by tandem C-H ortho-arylation and acid-mediated annulation of 2-amidophenol has been presented. The directing potential of the -NHCOR group over the -OH group was exploited for selective arylation adjacent to the amide group. Deuterium labeling experiments suggest that palladation predominantly occurs adjacent to the -NHCOR group and is the key step during benzoxazole formation. One-pot hydrolysis of the resulting C4-arylated benzoxazole was also accomplished to access structurally challenging 3-aryl aminophenols for further applications.
