Nitrogen-Rich Covalent Triazine Frameworks as High-Performance Platforms for Selective Carbon Capture and Storage

The search for new efficient physisorbents for gas capture and storage is the objective of numerous ongoing researches in the realm of functional framework materials. Here we present the CO2 and H2 uptake capacities of nitrogen rich

An oxidant-free single-step synthesis of tetra-or disubstituted symmetrical pyridine derivatives by a Hf(OTf)4-catalyzed annulation

The Hf(OTf)4-catalyzed unprecedented annulation of an enamine with triethyl orthoformate leading to the preparation of tetrasubstituted symmetrical pyridine derivatives without an oxidant is described. This method accommodated the single-step synthesis of a disubstituted symmetrical pyridine using an acetophenone derivative, triethyl orthoformate, and ammonium acetate (NH4OAc).

Electrosynthesis of pyridines from 'only acetonitrile'

2,4,6-Trimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile has been obtained as the main product after the electrolysis of acetonitrile in the presence of tetrabutylammonium bisulfate as supporting electrolyte using a divided cell with a medium porosity diaphragm. 2,6-Dimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile and 2,6-dimethylpyridine-3,4,5-tricarbonitrile have also been obtained in minor quantity. This process, which takes place with participation of both electrodes, is an example of a paired electrosynthesis.

Dehydrogenations using benzofuroxan as oxidant

2-Arylsubstituted benzimidazoles, quinoxalines, in 3,5-position substituted 2,6-dimethylpyridines, and 1,4-bis(alkylamino)-9,10-anthracenediones are easily prepared under mild conditions by means of benzofuroxan as oxidant. Thus, the preparation of 2-arylbenzimidazoles succeeds in acetonitrile at 50°C in yields of 65 to 78%.

A Novel, Base-induced Fragmentation of Hantzsch-type 4-Aryl-1,4-dihydropyridines

Hantzsch-type 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives substituted with highly electron-deficient aryl groups in the 4-position, on treatment with a variety of basic reagents in non-hydroxylic solvents, undergo an unexpected and ready scission of the inter-ring bond to give the corresponding 4-unsubstituted pyridine and an arene derived from the original 4-substituent.The scope of the reaction has been investigated and possible mechanisms are discussed.
