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.

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
Quinine catalysed asymmetric Michael additions in a sustainable solvent

Diethyl carbonate is shown to be a suitable, sustainable solvent in which to carry out quinine catalysed asymmetric Michael additions of malononitriles to enones. Both malonitrile and α-substituted malononitriles can be used as substrate and the results suggest that π-π stacking interactions between the (hetero)aromatic rings of the catalyst and substrates are important in determining the degree of asymmetric induction.
