Herein, we reported reductions of acid, amide, ester and ketone groups with selectivity (>99%) by the catalytic transfer hydrogenation of with CuPd alloy nanoparticles (NPs) decorated on mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (Cu50Pd50/mpg-C3N4) catalyst under mild conditions in a water/methanol mixture. CuPd alloy NPs were synthesized by the co-reduction of palladium (II) acetylacetonate and copper(II) acetylacetonate in oleylamine (OAm) solution by the reduction of morpholine-borane solution and then assembled on mpg-C3N4 via liquid phase self‐assembly method. The α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds were obtained from the condensation reaction of the benzaldehyde derivatives with acetone derivatives. Cu50Pd50/mpg-C3N4 nanocatalyst was characterized by TEM, XRD, XPS, BET and ICP‐MS. Cu50Pd50/mpg-C3N4 nanocatalyst is highly active catalyst for the reduction of various organic groups and converted to high yield and 99% selectivity. The superior Cu50Pd50/mpg-C3N4 nanocatalyst is highly efficient and reusable catalyst which is reuse after 5 cycle with 98% conversion.

A general synthetic route to γ-oxo alkyl or α-hydroxy benzyl 2-substituted benzoquinones has been developed through a one-pot Rh-catalyzed C-C bond formation/oxidative demethylation sequence from 2,5-dimethoxy aryl boronic acids and several electron deficient alkenes or aldehydes. The process allows rapid access to functionalized benzoquinones under very mild conditions and good yields. We disclose the first example of a Rh-catalyzed 1,4-addition reaction of benzoquinonyl boronic acid to methyl vinyl ketone and other conjugate acceptors, which allows the direct synthesis of 2-(γ-functionalized alkyl) substituted benzoquinones.

A series of eight previously undescribed 2,4-diaminothienopyrimidine analogues of the potent dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors trimetrexate (TMQ) and piritrexim (PTX) were synthesized as potential drugs against Pneumocystis carinii and Toxoplasma gondii, which are major causes of severe opportunistic infections in AIDS patients. 2,4-Diamino-5-methyl-6-(aryl/aralkyl)thienopyrimidines with 3,4,5-trimethoxy or 2,5-dimethoxy substitution in the aryl/aralkyl moiety and 2,4-diamino-5-(aryl/aralkyl)thienopyrimidines with 2,5-dimethoxy substitution in the aryl/aralkyl moiety were obtained by reaction of the corresponding 2-amino-3-cyanothiophenes with chloroformamidine hydrochloride.The aryl group in the 5,6-disubstituted analogues was either attached directly to the hetero ring or was separated from it by one or two carbons, whereas the aryl group in the 5-monosubstituted analogues was separated from the hetero ring by two or three carbons. 2-Amino-3-cyano-5-methyl-6-(aryl/alkyl)thiophene intermediates for the preparation of the 5,6-disubstituted analogues were prepared from ω-aryl-2-alkylidenemalononitriles and sulfur in the presence of a secondary amine, and 2-amino-3-cyano-4-(aryl/aralkyl)thiophene intermediates for the preparation of the 5-monosubstituted analogues were obtained from ω-aryl-1-chloro-2-alkylidenemalononitriles and sodium hydrosulfide.Synthetic routes to the heterofore unknown ylidenemalononitriles, and the ketone precursors thereof, were developed.The final products were tested in vitro as inhibitors of DHFR from Pneumocystis carinii, Toxoplasma gondii, rat liver, beef liver, and Lactobacillus casei.A select number of previously known 2,4-diaminothienopyrimidines lacking the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl and 2,5-dimethoxyphenyl substitution pattern of TMQ and PTX, respectively, were also tested for comparison.None of the compounds was as potent as TMQ or PTX, and while some of them showed some selectivity in their binding to Pneumocystis carinii and Toxoplasma gondii versus rat liver DHFR, this effect was not deemed large enough to warrant further preclinical evaluation.
