The study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of five new Ni(II) complexes with aroyl hydrazone ligands derived from 2,6-diacetyl pyridine monooxime. The complexes were found to have a distorted octahedral N4O2 coordination environment around the Ni(II) ion, with the ligands coordinating through the pyridine nitrogen, imino-hydrazone nitrogen, and the deprotonated oxygen of the hydrazone moiety. The uncoordinated iminooxime groups and the orthogonal orientation of the CH3–C@N–OH groups relative to the adjacent pyridine rings were observed. The ligands and their corresponding Ni(II) complexes exhibited luminescence, with the complexes showing a lower quantum yield compared to the free ligands. The study also includes the X-ray crystal structure of the Ni(II) salicyloylhydrazone complex, which revealed details about the molecular structure and hydrogen bonding interactions in the crystal lattice. The research provides insights into the coordination chemistry of aroyl hydrazone ligands and their potential applications in areas such as pharmaceuticals and materials science.

The research focuses on the development of an organocatalytic enantioselective formal conjugate addition of a hydroxymoyl anion to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, which is a significant transformation in organic chemistry. The study explores the use of N-nitromethylphthalimide as a hydroxymetanimidoyl anion equivalent in enantioselective conjugate addition reactions under iminium activation, using a chiral secondary amine as the organocatalyst. The experiments involved the optimization of reaction conditions and the identification of the best catalyst for the initial conjugate addition of N-nitromethylphthalimide to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The reaction was found to be efficient with O-TMS diphenyl prolinol as the catalyst and EtOH as the solvent at 4°C, yielding a variety of Michael addition products with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Further experiments included the transformation of the nitro(phthalimido)methyl moiety into the hydroxymetanimidoyl group, which was achieved through a series of steps involving protection of the formyl moiety, reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and ozonolysis to obtain chiral aldehydes. The analyses used to determine the success of the reactions included NMR spectroscopic analysis for diastereoisomeric ratios, HPLC on chiral stationary phase for enantiomeric excess (ee), and chemical correlation for assigning the absolute configuration of the stereocenter.

The research aims to synthesize novel compounds that are linked to sugars and possess both antioxidant properties and the ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme associated with Alzheimer's disease. The study compares the efficiency of conventional heating methods with microwave-assisted synthesis for the creation of these compounds, which include oxo-/thioxopyrimidines and tetrazoles linked to furanoses with D-xylo and D-ribo configurations, and to a D-galacto pyranose. The chemicals used in the synthesis process involve dialdofuranoses and dialdopyranoses, β-keto esters, urea or thiourea, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, copper sulfate, triethylamine, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and sodium azide. The research concludes that microwave irradiation is a more efficient method, yielding the target molecules in high yield and in a significantly shorter time (10 minutes) compared to conventional heating. The synthesized compounds showed acetylcholinesterase inhibition ranging from 20% to 80% at a concentration of 100 μg/mL and exhibited antioxidant activity in the β-carotene/linoleic acid assay, with some compounds showing IC50 values comparable to gallic acid. Importantly, the bioactive compounds did not exhibit cytotoxic effects on human lymphocytes nor genotoxicity, indicating their potential as non-toxic therapeutic agents for the control of Alzheimer's disease symptoms.

The research involves the synthesis and reactivity of bis(arylcarbamoyl)-N-arylphenacylamine oximes, which are precursors to N-unsubstituted O-arylcarbamoylhydroxylamines and 1,3-dihydroimidazol-2-ones. The study aimed to explore the Beckmann fragmentation and intramolecular cyclization of these compounds to form imidazol-2-ones. The researchers found that the expected Beckmann fragmentation did not occur under the tested conditions, and instead, the compounds underwent intramolecular nucleophilic addition, leading to the formation of imidazolidinones. The synthesis involved the use of N-arylphenacylamines, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, sodium acetate, aryl isocyanates, and TsOH.H2O (p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate), among other reagents. The conclusions of the research were that bis(arylcarbamoyl)-N-arylphenacylamine oximes are excellent precursors for the synthesis of the target compounds, and the reactions provided high yields of the desired products, with the process being confirmed through various analytical techniques including NMR, IR, and mass spectrometry.

The research investigates the initial steps of the reductive condensation of trichloromethylarenes with hydroxylamine or hydrazines in pyridine. The purpose is to understand the role of pyridine in these reactions and the initial steps of the reductive condensation process. The key chemicals used include trichloromethylarenes, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, hydrazine salts, and pyridine. The study found that pyridine may act as the actual reducing agent, undergoing oxidation to form N-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium salts, which then react with hydrazine to produce 4-pyridylhydrazine. This compound further reacts to form unusual products like 4-pyridylhydrazones of substituted benzaldehydes. The research concludes that pyridine plays a more complex role than previously thought, contributing significantly to the high yields of certain products even at equimolar ratios of reactants. In the research, hydroxylamine hydrochloride plays a crucial role as a reagent in the reductive condensation process. 4-pyridylhydrazine is identified as an unexpected and significant product formed during the reductive condensation process involving pyridine.
