The near IR region spectroscopy has been used to follow the addition reactions of the secondary amino groups of the tert-butyl 3-butylaminopropanoate, N,N'-dibutyl-3-aminopropanamide, and dibutylamine to tert-butyl acrylate. The additions are bimolecular reactions of the second order. The respective rate constants found for the above-mentioned compounds are 3·54 . 10-6, 2·34 . 10-5, and 3·18 . 10-6 l mol-1 s-1. The secondary amidic groups increase the nucleophilicity of secondary amino group and hence also the rate of the addition reaction.

The reaction of appropriately functionalized sucrose phosphonate with sucrose aldehyde afforded a dimer composed of two sucrose units connected via their C6-positions (‘the glucose ends’). The carbonyl group in this product (enone) was stereoselectively reduced with zinc borohydride and the double bond (after protection of the allylic alcohol formed after reduction) was oxidized with osmium tetroxide to a diol. Absolute configurations of the allylic alcohol as well as the diol were determined by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy using the in situ dimolybdenum methodology.

Abstract Dual-functionality Au-on-Ag nanostructures (AOA) were fabricated on a silicon substrate by first immobilizing citrate-reduced Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs, ~43 nm in diameter), followed by depositing ~7 nm Au nanofilms (Au NFs) via thermal evaporation. Au NFs were introduced for their catalytic activity in concave-convex nano-configuration. Ag NPs underneath were used for their significant enhancement factor (EF) in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based measurements of analytes of interest. Rhodamine 6G (R6G) was utilized as the Raman-probe to evaluate the SERS sensitivity of AOA. The SERS EF of AOA is ~37 times than that of Au NPs. Using reduction of 4-nitrothiophenol (4-NTP) by sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a model reaction, we demonstrated the robust catalytic activity of AOA as well as its capacity to continuously monitor via SERS the disappearance of reactant 4-NTP, emergence and disappearance of intermediate 4, 4’-DMAB, and the appearance of product 4-ATP throughout the reduction process in real-time and in situ.

An efficient and versatile copper-catalyzed unprecedented intermolecular radical [3 + 2] annulation of thioamides with azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) is described. This two-component one-pot copper(II)-catalyzed transformation has been achieved via cascade formation of C-S/C−N bonds through the cyclization of in situ generated N,S-acetal intermediate from β-ketothioamide. This operationally simple method allows direct access to synthetically demanding thiazolidin-4-ones in good to excellent yields containing diverse functional groups of different electronic and steric nature. Remarkably, the readily available reaction partners, avoidance of expensive/toxic reagents and the gram scale synthesis are additional attributes to this strategy. AIBN here plays a dual role as radical initiator and unusual source of two carbon coupling partner. Notably, the products possess Z-stereochemistry with regard to the exocyclic C=C double bond at the 2-position of the thiazolidine ring.
