- Synthesis of 2-Arylbenzothiazoles from Nitrobenzenes, Benzylamines, and Elemental Sulfur via Redox Cyclization
-
A sustainable advanced synthetic method was developed based on redox cyclization for the synthesis of 2-arylbenzothiazoles in good to excellent yields from readily available nitrobenzenes, benzylamines, and elemental sulfur without the use of transition-metal catalysts. This method is remarkable: nitro group reduction, a benzylamine redox reaction, sulfuration, condensation, and cyclization, all proceed in a single step to generate a heterocycle. It is also highly atom-economical and does not require any external oxidizing or reducing agents.

- Graphene oxide-catalyzed synthesis of benzothiazoles with amines and elemental sulfur via oxidative coupling strategy of amines to imines
-
The graphene oxide-catalyzed coupling and cyclization reactions of primary amines with elemental sulfur was developed to afford various optically property benzothiazoles. This coupling and cyclization strategies proceeded under the oxidant system graphene oxide/O2 and constructed carbon-heteroatom (N, S) bonds with amines and elemental sulfur. Due to benzothiazoles as common chromophores, these products exhibited intriguing fluorescence properties, including outstanding Stokes shifts (up to 161 nm) and quantum yields (up to 74%). Utilizing the products’ unique fluorescence response in different solvents, β-naphthothiazole 4a showed excellent aggregation-induced emission properties in 1,2-dichloroethane, which was 60 times higher than in tetrahydrofuran.

- Oxidant/Solvent-Controlled I2-Catalyzed Domino Annulation for Selective Synthesis of 2-Aroylbenzothiazoles and 2-Arylbenzothiazoles under Metal-Free Conditions
-
A simple and practical domino protocol for the selective synthesis of 2-aroylbenzothiazoles and 2-aryl benzothiazoles catalyzed by I2 is developed under metal-free conditions. The reaction outcomes are exclusively controlled by the reaction oxidant/medium. With DMSO employed as both the solvent and the oxidant, an oxidation of aromatic methyl ketones takes precedence over the condensation with 2-aminobenzenethiols. On the other hand, when the reaction was carried out in PhNO2 or in 1,4-dioxane containing PhNO2, the condensation of aromatic methyl ketones with 2-aminobenzenethiols has priority to form imines which is followed by an oxidation of the methyl group from ketones to afford 2-arylbenzothiazoles as a sole product. The PhNO2/I2 co-catalytic system is proposed first time.

- 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.

Under the same conditions, with ortho-phenylene diamines and 2-aminobenzenethiols the corresponding benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles were obtained. Quinoxalines were obtained from ortho-phenylene diamines and 1-phenylethane-1,2-diol, the conditions were then extended to the synthesis of quinoline building blocks by reaction of 2-amino benzyl alcohols either with 1-phenylethan-1-ol or acetophenone derivatives. The formation of C?N, C?S and C?C bonds was achieved under metal-free conditions. A broad range of amines (aromatic, aliphatic, cyclic and heteroaromatic) as well as benzylic alcohols including heteroaryl alcohols reacted smoothly and provided the desired products. The mild reaction conditions, commercially available catalyst, metal-free, good functional-group tolerance, broad range of products (imines, benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, quinoxalines and quinolines) and applicability at gram scale reactions are the advantages of the present strategy.

- 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.

- Highly Ordered Mesoporous Cobalt Oxide as Heterogeneous Catalyst for Aerobic Oxidative Aromatization of N-Heterocycles
-
N-heterocycles are key structures for many pharmaceutical intermediates. The synthesis of such units normally is conducted under homogeneous catalytic conditions. Among all methods, aerobic oxidative aromatization is one of the most effective. However, in homogeneous conditions, catalysts are difficult to be recycled. Herein, we report a heterogeneous catalytic strategy with a mesoporous cobalt oxide as catalyst. The developed protocol shows a broad applicability for the synthesis of N-heterocycles (32 examples, up to 99 % yield), and the catalyst presents high turnover numbers (7.41) in the absence of any additives. Such a heterogenous approach can be easily scaled up. Furthermore, the catalyst can be recycled by simply filtration and be reused for at least six times without obvious deactivation. Comparative studies reveal that the high surface area of mesoporous cobalt oxide plays an important role on the catalytic reactivity. The outstanding recycling capacity makes the catalyst industrially practical and sustainable for the synthesis of diverse N-heterocycles.

Green, economic, efficient, and sustainable synthesis of 2-phenylbenzothiazole (2-PBZ)—an important versatile scaffold—remains challenging. Here, for the first time, we propose to cascade immobilized enzyme catalysis and photocatalysis in a continuous-microflow manner to realize the online reuse of the enzyme, eliminate cross-inhibitions between the two-step reaction processes, provide stronger and more uniform illumination, and enhance process efficiency. This novel microflow system required only 4.6 min of the total residence time to achieve >99% product yield, and 93.7% of the total catalytic activity was retained after running for 300 min. This orderly cascaded continuous-flow microreactor system widens the limitations of photo-biocatalytic approaches and provides the potential foundation for the industrial green production of 2-PBZ.

- Possible competitive modes of decarboxylation in the annulation reactions ofortho-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates
-
Annulation reactions ofortho-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in the presence of K2S2O8at 80 °C under metal-free neutral conditions have been investigated, which extended a platform for the tandem synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles. While arylglyoxylic acids are known to undergo decarboxylation to form an acyl radical in the presence of K2S2O8and used in the Minisci acylation of electron-deficient (hetero)aromatics, their reactions with electron-richortho-substituted anilines to form nitrogen heterocycles have recently been studied. Depending upon the experimental conditions used in the reactions, the mechanism of the formation of heterocycles involving reactions of an acyl radical or aryl iminocarboxylic acids has been postulated. Given the subtle understanding of the mechanisms of annulation reactions of 2-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in the presence of K2S2O8, an extensive mechanistic investigation was undertaken. In the current study, the various mechanistic pathways including the generation of acyl, imidoyl, aminal, and N,O-hemiketal radicals have been postulated based on different possible decarboxylation modes. Some of the proposed intermediates are supported based on the available analytical data. The protocol uses a single, inexpensive reagent K2S2O8, which offers not only transition-metal-free conditions but also serves as the reagent for the key decarboxylation step. Taken together, this study complements the current development of the annulation reactions of 2-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in terms of synthesis and mechanistic understanding.

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.

- Sulfur-Promoted Redox Cyclization of 2,2′-Dinitrodiphenyl Disulfides and Benzylamines
-
This study aims to develop green and sustainable advanced synthetic methods based on redox cyclization. Elemental sulfur is shown to promote the efficient synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles from 2,2′-dinitrodiphenyl disulfides and benzylamines via redox cyclization in the absence of transition-metal catalysts and solvents. The 2-substituted benzothiazoles are obtained in good to excellent yields. This synthetic methodology is highly atom-economical and does not require any external oxidizing and/or reducing agents.

- A TEMPO-Functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Polymer as a Highly Active and Reusable Organocatalyst
-
The properties of high stability, periodic porosity, and tunable nature of ordered mesoporous polymers make these materials ideal catalytic nanoreactors. However, their application in organocatalysis has been rarely explored. We report herein for the first time the incorporation of a versatile organocatalyst, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO), into the pores of an FDU-type mesoporous polymer via a pore surface engineering strategy. The resulting FDU-15-TEMPO possesses a highly ordered mesoporous organic framework and enhanced stability, and shows excellent catalytic activity in the selective oxidation of alcohols and aerobic oxidative synthesis of 2-substituted benzoxazoles, benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles. Moreover, the catalyst can be easily recovered and reused for up to 7 consecutive cycles.

- K2S2O8activation by glucose at room temperature for the synthesis and functionalization of heterocycles in water
-
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.

- Improved, gram-scale synthesis of sildenafil in water using arylacetic acid as the acyl source in the pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one ring formation
-
An improved, gram-scale synthesis of the blockbuster drug sildenafil, used for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction, has been developed. Unlike the previous literature, the current method demonstrates the use of arylacetic acid as an acyl source, a cheap oxidant K2S2O8, and water as the reaction medium in the key step of pyrrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one ring formation. As well as being a green and benign approach, the current method reduces the cost by half compared to our previous strategy. In addition, the general relevance of the method has been demonstrated in the synthesis of a variety of quinazolinone and benzothiazole derivatives with excellent functional group tolerance.

- Cobalt-Catalyzed Coupling of Aryl Chlorides with Aryl Boron Esters Activated by Alkoxides
-
The cobalt-catalyzed Suzuki biaryl cross-coupling of aryl chloride substrates with aryl boron reagents, activated with more commonly used bases, remained a significant unmet challenge in the race to replace platinum group metal catalysts with Earth-abundant metal alternatives. We now show that this highly desirable process can be realized using alkoxide bases, provided the right counterion is employed, strict stoichiometric control of the base is maintained with respect to the aryl boron reagent, and the correct boron ester is selected. Potassium tert-butoxide works well, but any excess of the base first inhibits and then poisons the catalyst. Lithium tert-butoxide performs very poorly, while even catalytic amounts of lithium additives also poison the catalyst. Meanwhile, a neopentane diol-based boron ester is required for best performance. As well as delivering this sought-after transformation, we have undertaken detailed mechanistic and computational investigations to probe the possible mechanism of the reaction and help explain the unexpected experimental observations.

- 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.

- 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.

- Design, synthesis and evaluation of benzothiazole derivatives as multifunctional agents
-
Oxidative stress is the product or aetiology of various multifactorial diseases; on the other hand, the development of multifunctional compounds is a recognized strategy for the control of complex diseases. To this end, a series of benzothiazole derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for their multifunctional effectiveness as antioxidant, sunscreen (filter), antifungal and antiproliferative agents. Compounds were easily synthesized via condensation reaction between 2-aminothiophenols and different benzaldehydes. SAR study, particularly in position 2 and 6 of benzothiazoles, led to the identification of 4g and 4k as very interesting potential compounds for the design of multifunctional drugs. In particular, compound 4g is the best blocker of hERG potassium channels expressed in HEK 293 cells exhibiting 60.32percent inhibition with IC50 = 4.79 μM.
