A pseudo-three-component synthesis of N-aroylmethylimidazoles 3 with three new C–N bonds formed regioselectively under microwave conditions was developed. Products were obtained by reacting two equivalents of aroylmethyl bromide (ArCOCH2 Br, 1) with the appropriate amidine salt (RCN2 H3.HX, 2) and with K2 CO3 as a base in acetonitrile. The bicomponent reaction also occurred, giving the expected 4(5)-aryl-1H-imidazoles 4. Notably, the ratio of products 3 and 4 is governed by steric factors of the amidine 2 (i.e., R = H, CH3, Ph). Therefore, a computational study was carried out to understand the reaction course regarding product ratio (3/4), regioselectivity, and the steric effects of the amidine substituent group.

An efficient and mild method for reductive C-O bond cleavage of lignin β-O-4 ketone models was developed to afford the corresponding ketones and phenols with PDI-CoCl2 as the precatalyst and diboron reagent as the reductant. The synthetic utility of the methodology was demonstrated by depolymerization of a polymeric model and gram-scale transformation. Mechanistic studies suggested that this transformation involves steps of carbonyl insertion, 1,2-Brook type rearrangement, β-oxygen elimination, and rate-limiting regeneration of the catalytic active Co-B species.

A new imidazolium-based poly(ionic liquid) has been synthesized and used as a robust heterogeneous catalyst for the preparation of phenacyl derivatives by an SN2 reaction of different phenacyl bromides with a broad range of nucleophiles. The products are obtained in high yields under mild conditions. The catalyst can be recycled efficiently.
