An efficient transition-metal-free amination of benzoxazoles has been developed. With catalytic amounts of tetrabutylammoniumiodide (TBAI), aqueous solutions of H2O2 or TBHP as co-oxidant and under mild reaction conditions, highly desirable 2-aminobenzoxazoles were isolated in excellent yields of up to 93%. First mechanistic experiments indicate the in situ iodination of the secondary amine as the putative mode of activation.

Quinones are important scaffolds that are present in a variety of natural products or synthetic bioactive molecules. Arylation is an important strategy for accomplishing structural modifications, leading to new potential candidates for use as drugs. In the present work, palladium-catalysed, ligandless and phosphine-free Suzuki coupling reactions between 2-hydroxy-3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone and boronic acids were employed to prepare several 2-hydroxy-3-aryl-1,4-naphthoquinones in aqueous conditions using microwave irradiation or conventional heating. Because of the biological activities of quinones, which are related to their ability to accept electrons to form semiquinones and hydroquinones, the electrochemical behaviour of the synthesized molecules was investigated. The Osiris and Molinspiration Cheminformatics programs, utilizing in silico analyses, imply that these naphthoquinones are candidates for use as drugs which was reinforced by the outcomes of the in vitro antifungal and trypanocidal activity tests. Our in vitro data indicated a MIC value of 8 μg mL-1 against Candida albicans ATCC 24433 strains, and an EC50 of 0.67 μM with respect to trypanocidal activity against Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote strains (Y).
A practical and general ipso iodination of arylboronic acids using N-iodomorpholinium iodide (NIMI) as a novel iodinating agent: mild and regioselective synthesis of aryliodides

A mild and efficient protocol for the ipso-iodination of aryl boronic acids using N-iodomorpholinium iodide (NIMI) generated in situ from morpholine and molecular iodine as a novel iodinating agent has been developed. The addition of a catalytic amount of copper iodide found to promote rate enhancement of the iodination reaction and dramatic increase in the yield depending upon the nature of the boronic acid was observed. The mechanistic study revealed that depending upon the nature of the substrate, either the classical ipso substitution or copper catalysed iododeborylation pathway overall dominates the present iodination reaction. The features such as mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, high to excellent yields, excellent functional group compatibility and low catalyst loading make this method potentially useful in organic synthesis.
