Iodine/MeOH as a novel and versatile reagent system for the synthesis of α-ketothiocyanates

Ketones possessing α-hydrogens undergo smooth thiocyanation with ammonium thiocyanate in the presence of molecular iodine in refluxing methanol to produce the corresponding α-ketothiocyanates in excellent yields with high selectivity. The use of iodine ma

A simple and efficient thiocyanation of indoles, anilines and keto compounds catalyzed by a polystyrene resin amberlyst-15

Thiocyanation of various aromatic, heteroaromatic and enolizable ketone compounds has been achieved with ammonium thiocyanate in presence of polystyrene cation exchange resin, Amberlyst-15. All the reactions were carried out in acetonitrile at room temper

Visible-light-promoted thiocyanation of sp2C-H bonds over heterogeneous graphitic carbon nitrides

Mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (mpg-C3N4) has been developed as a metal-free heterogeneous photocatalyst for thiocyanation transformations. The reaction proceeds efficiently by utilizing air as a green oxidant under mild reaction conditions, which affords SCN-containing compounds in moderate to excellent yields. Meanwhile, the practicality of this protocol is further demonstrated by the reusability of the mpg-C3N4photocatalyst and the scaled-up reaction. Furthermore, detailed mechanistic studies clearly demonstrate the role of oxygen.

Visible-Light-Promoted Difunctionalization of Olefins Leading to α-Thiocyanato Ketones

A simple and convenient visible-light-induced difunctionalization of alkenes with ammonium thiocyanate and dioxygen has been developed at room temperature. A series of α-thiocyanato ketones could be easily and efficiently obtained in moderate to good yields through the formation of C-S and C=O bonds simply by using nontoxic and inexpensive Na 2 -Eosin Y as a photocatalyst.

Allosteric Inhibitors of SHP2 with Therapeutic Potential for Cancer Treatment

SHP2, a cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine phosphatase encoded by the PTPN11 gene, is involved in multiple cell signaling processes including Ras/MAPK and Hippo/YAP pathways. SHP2 has been shown to contribute to the progression of a number of cancer types inclu

One-pot synthesis of (ethoxycarbonyl)difluoromethylthioethers from thiocyanate sodium and ethyl 2-(trimethylsilyl)-2,2-difluoroacetate (TMS-CF2CO2Et)

An efficient one-pot cascade methodology for the synthesis of (ethoxycarbonyl)difluoromethyl thioethers is described. Benzyl, allyl, alkyl halides or diazonium salts as the starting materials together with thiocyanate sodium and TMS-CF2CO2Et in the presence of CsF or NaOAc afford a variety of the fluoroalkylthiolated products in moderate to good yields.

Synthesis of ionic liquid-supported hypervalent iodine reagent and its application as a 'catch and release' reagent for α-substituted acetophenones

A novel imidazolium-based ionic liquid-supported hypervalent iodine reagent has been synthesized and employed for a 'catch and release' strategy with substituted acetophenones to generate various α-substituted acetophenones in good to excellent yields. The use of an ionic liquid-supported hypervalent iodine reagent avoids chromatographic separation for the purification of α-substituted acetophenones and thus makes the method greener.
