A practical and general iron-catalyzed domino decarboxylation-oxidation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids enabling aldehyde C-H methylation for the synthesis of methyl ketones has been developed. This mild, operationally simple method uses ambient air as the sole oxidant and tolerates sensitive functional groups for the late-stage functionalization of complex natural-product-derived and polyfunctionalized molecules.

A Hf(IV) metal-organic framework (MOF) with di-amino functionalized linker was obtained as a crystalline solid with UiO-67 topology under solvothermal reaction conditions. The guest free form of Hf(IV) MOF (1′) was efficiently employed as a heterogeneous catalyst to synthesize cinnamic acid derivatives via Knoevenagel-Doebner reaction for the first time. The catalyst (1′) was efficiently active to directly achieve cinnamic acid from benzaldehyde and malonic acid. The solid retained its activity up to 6th cycle with no decay in its activity. The noticeable advantages of the catalyst are its milder reaction conditions, high yield, high stability, recyclable nature towards catalysis and wide substrate scope as well as shape-selective behaviour. The possible mechanism of the reaction was also studied thoroughly with suitable control experiments.

Biomass is an abundant and environmentally friendly source for materials that can be used in a multitude of applications in the effort to replace petrochemicals. Furfural and malonic acid are biomass-sourced platforms that can be utilized in the synthesis of biobased compounds; rctt-3,4-di-2-furanyl-1,2-cyclobutanedicarboxylic acid (CBDA-2) is one such compound. In this study, CBDA-2 has been introduced into metal-organic materials chemistry as a semi-rigid polytopic ligand. This compound has been utilized as a polytopic ligand in the formation of two different 2D coordination polymers with Cu2+ and Co2+ as the metal centers via a conventional solution method. Both complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystal structure determination and showed visual thermochromic behaviors. This study demonstrates that CBDA-2 is a promising green building block in coordination chemistry.

Chlorination with chlorine is straightforward, highly reactive, and versatile, but it has significant limitations. In this Letter, we introduce a protocol that could combine the efficiency of electrochemical transformation and the high reactivity of chlorine. By utilizing Cl3CCN as the chloride source, donating up to all three chloride atom, the reaction could generate and consume the chlorine in situ on demand to achieve the chlorination of aromatic compounds and electrodeficient alkenes.

Herein, a dual nickel/ruthenium strategy is developed for photoinduced decarboxylative cross-coupling between α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and cycloketone oxime esters. The reaction mechanism is distinct from previous photoinduced decarboxylation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. This reaction might proceed through a nickelacyclopropane intermediate. The C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond constructed by the aforementioned reaction provides an efficient approach to obtaining various cyanoalkyl alkenes, which are synthetically valuable organic skeletons in organic and medicinal chemistry, under mild reaction conditions. The protocol tolerates many critical functional groups and provides a route for the modification of complex organic molecules.

The NorA efflux pump decreases the intracellular concentration of fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin) by effluxing them from Staphylococcus aureus cells. The synthesis of novel acrylohydrazide derivatives was achieved using well-known reactions and were characterized by various spectroscopy techniques. The synthesized 50 compounds were evaluated for the NorA efflux pump inhibition activity against S. aureus SA-1199B (norA++) and K1758 (norA-) strains. The study provided two most active compounds viz. 19 and 52. Compound 19 was found to be most active in potentiating effect of norfloxacin and also it showed enhanced uptake, efflux inhibition in ethidium bromide assay. Further compound 19 also enhanced post antibiotic effect and reduced mutation prevention concentration of norfloxacin. The homology modeling study was performed to elucidate three-dimensional structure of NorA. Docking studies of potent molecules were done to find the binding affinity and interaction with active site residues. Further, all the tested compounds exhibited good ADME and drug-likeness properties in- silico. Based on the in-silico studies and detailed in vitro studies, acrylohydrazides derivatives may be considered as potential NorA EPI candidates.

Herein, we present the first example of synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones from cinnamic thioesters via a stereoselective phase-transfer-catalyzed domino Michael-cyclization reaction with acetylacetone. The reaction proceeded under the catalysis of Cinchona-derived quaternary ammonium phenoxide that, in combination with inorganic bases, provided 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones in yields of up to 93% and enantioselectivities of up to 88% enantiomeric excess.

The development of green and sustainable processes using naturally occurring biopolymers is becoming one of the suitable remedies to replace the conventional catalytic systems that generate large amount of byproducts with high risk factors. In this context, although Knoevenagel-Doebner condensation reaction has been reported with many organocatalysts including proline, no attempts were made to develop heterogeneous catalysts with environmental concerns. Considering these factors in mind, the title reaction is studied with chitosan as a heterogeneous solid base catalyst for the synthesis of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids through the condensation followed by decarboxylation reactions. Chitosan offers many advantages including high stability as evidenced by leaching, reusability tests, wide substrate scope and providing higher yields of the desired products with high purity. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and elemental analysis revealed that there are no major changes in the structural integrity and morphology of chitosan before and after catalysis under the optimized reaction conditions.

Radical cation vinylcyclopropane rearrangements by TiO2 photocatalysis in lithium perchlorate/nitromethane solution are described. The reactions are triggered by oxidative single electron transfer, which is followed by immediate ring-opening of the cyclopropanes to generate distonic radical cations as unique reactive intermediates. This approach can also be applied to vinylcyclobutane, leading to the construction of six-membered rings. A stepwise mechanism via distonic radical cations is proposed based on preliminary mechanistic studies, which is supported by density functional theory calculations.
