o-Iodophenols react with terminal acetylenes under carbon monoxide in the presence of palladium catalyst to give flavones or 2-substituted chromones.

Abstract: A transition metal-free and efficient TBHP/TBAI-mediated protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 4H-chromen-4-ones from chroman-4-ones via oxidative C–C bond formation. It proceeds in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide and oxidant tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP, 5–6 M in decane) to afford the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, it has been observed that an increase in the concentration of TBHP to 30 mol % drastically increases the yield of 4H-chromen-4-ones, any further increase will lead to a decrease in percent yield. The mechanism of this reaction involves the generation of tertiary butoxide radical initially which by oxidative single-electron transformation is converted to iodochroman-4-one. Later the hydrogen iodide is removed from iodochroman-4-one to give the desired product, i.e. 4H-chromen-4-ones. Moreover, this is a rare example of the n-Bu4NI/TBHP-mediated C–C bond through dehydrogenative reaction. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Owing to the increasing amount of waste materials around the globe, the conversion of waste or secondary by-products to value-added products for various applications has gained significant interest. Herein, two novel agro-food waste products, Musa sp. 'Malbhog' peel ash (MMPA) and Musa Champa Hort. ex Hook. F. peel ash (MCPA) are used as catalysts to promote an inexpensive, efficient and eco-friendly carbon-carbon bond forming crossed aldol reaction at room temperature in solvent free conditions. Furthermore, the resulting products were subjected to reactions with these promoters in an oxygen atmosphere and led to the formation of novel flavone derivatives. Moreover, the used catalysts were properly characterized using different sophisticated analytical techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis (BET), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transition electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) along with element detection using atomic absorption spectroscopy and ion chromatographic methods. These two approaches are metal free, as well as being devoid of any extra additives, co-catalysts, harsh conditions, the use of column chromatography for purification and result in a higher yield of the product within a short space of time. The catalytic abilities of the promoter were also examined to synthesize important bioactive molecules such as butein and apigenin at room temperature. With gram scale synthesis of the chalcone derivatives, the used catalysts (MMPA and MCPA) were further reused for five cycles and did not demonstrate any loss in catalytic activity.
