Cu(II)-Promoted Cascade Synthesis of Fused Imidazo-Pyridine-Carbonitriles

A Cu(II)-promoted synthesis of an aza-fused N-heterocycle having a benz-imidazopyridine scaffold is developed via an addition-cyclization reaction followed by an Ullmann-type C-N coupling between o-iodoanilines and γ-ketodinitriles. This protocol features a broad substrate scope, giving products in 32-84% yields. The compounds show excellent photoluminescence properties having two absorption maxima in the region between 270-280 and 338-350 nm and emission maxima in the range of 502-533 nm. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap of 3.49-3.57 eV was determined using Gaussian 09 at the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) basis set level. We also demonstrated a few postsynthetic modifications.

Visible-light-accelerated pd-catalyzed cascade addition/ cyclization of arylboronic acids to γ- And β-ketodinitriles for the construction of 3-cyanopyridines and 3-cyanopyrrole analogues

The one-pot synthetic strategies for 2,4,6-triarylnicotinonitriles and 2,5-diaryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitriles have been accomplished via a Pd-catalyzed coupling of arylboronic acid with 2-(3-oxo-1,3-diarylpropyl)malononitrile and 2-(2-oxo-2- arylethyl)malo

A highly enantioselective one-pot synthesis of important building blocks, α-chiral γ-keto esters, has been developed by combining a quinine-catalyzed Michael addition of malononitrile to trans-enones followed by magnesium monoperoxyphthalate (MMPP) oxidat

Conjugate addition of malononitrile on chalcone: Biocatalytic [Formula presented] bond formation

An efficient, cost effective and environmentally friendly protocol has been developed for the Michael addition of malononitrile on 1,3-diaryl-2-propen-1-ones (Chalcones) using very cheaper, easily available natural catalyst, baker's yeast. The whole cells of yeast excellently worked in nonaqueous medium, ethanol without decrease in catalytic activity.
