A green and cheap protocol for the photocatalytic hydroxylation of arylboronic acids is presented. 2,2-Dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone proved to be the best photoinitiator, among a range of organocatalysts in promoting this reaction. This photocatalytic protocol can be expanded into a wide substrate scope of aromatic boronic acids bearing various functional groups, leading to the corresponding phenols in good to high yields under mild reaction conditions, which include water as solvent, light irradiation provided from standard light-bulbs at room temperature.

N-Arylation of sulfoximines with different arylboronic acids, including sterically hindered boronic acids, is achieved using copper(I) iodide and 4-DMAP at room temperature. Moreover, N-arylation of biologically relevant l-methionine sulfoximine is demonstrated for the first time. All these reactions provided the desired products in excellent yields within a short span of time. The optimized reaction conditions are well suited to the task of N-vinylation of sulfoximine with trans-2-phenylvinylboronic acid.

A copper(I)-mediated tandem three-component reaction using alkynes, azides, allyl iodides, CuI and NaNH2 is developed. The reactions proceed smoothly at room temperature to afford 5-allyl-1,2,3-triazoles, which can be further converted into 1,2,3-triazole-fused tricyclic scaffolds. This method features an efficient one-pot cascade route using commercial alkynes and affords the corresponding 5-allyl-1,2,3-triazoles with high yields and good selectivity under mild reaction conditions.

An efficient approach for the synthesis of pyrazolopyridines containing the aminochromane motif through a base-catalyzed cyclization reaction is reported. The synthesis was carried out through a three-component reaction of (arylhydrazono)methyl-4H-chromen-4-one, malononitrile, primary amines in the presence of Et3N at room temperature. However, carrying out the reaction under the same conditions without base led to a fused chromanyl-cyanopyridine. High selectivity, high atom economy, and good to high yields in addition to mild reaction conditions are the advantages of this approach.

We report an enantioselective Henry (nitroaldol) reaction catalysed by an organocatalyst using water as solvent. The enantioselective synthesis of β-nitroalcohols was achieved by using a neutral chiral organocatalyst, through strong hydrogen bonding, which results in the formation of corresponding products in excellent yield and enantioselectivity at room temperature. Other attractive features of the method are the eco-friendly, non-hazardous, and mild reaction conditions, inexpensive catalyst, and simple work up conditions.

A mild and facile Cp*Rh(III)-catalyzed C–H activation and intramolecular cascade annulation protocol has been proposed for the furnishing of highly fused isochromeno-1,2-benzothiazines scaffolds using S-phenylsulfoximides and 4-diazoisochroman-3-imine as substrates under room temperature. This method features diverse substituents and functional groups tolerance and relatively mild reaction conditions with moderate to excellent yields. Additionally, retentive configuration of sulfoximides in the conversion has been verified.

We report a suitable quinoxaline synthesis using molybdophosphovanadates supported on commercial alumina cylinders as catalysts. These catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation. The catalytic test was performed under different reaction conditions in order to know the performance of the synthesized catalysts. The method shows high yields of quinoxaline derivatives under heterogeneous conditions. Quinoxaline formation was obtained using benzyl,o-phenylenediamine, and toluene as reaction solvent at room temperature. The CuH2PMo11VO40supported on alumina showed higher activity in the tested reaction. Finally, various quinoxalines were prepared under mild conditions and with excellent yields.

Active Sn(0) particles are synthesized in high yields by the chemical reduction of the blue–black stannous oxide using freshly prepared sodium stannite solution as reducing agent at 40 °C and 60 °C. The Sn(0) particles are characterized using powder XRD, SEM, and DSC. The as-synthesized Sn(0) particles are applied as reagent for the regioselective synthesis of homopropargyl alcohols from propargyl bromide and aldehydes in distilled water at room temperature (in 50%–84% yields). No assistance of heat, microwave, ultrasound, organic co-solvent, co-reagent, or inert atmosphere is required for this reaction. The propargylation reaction is highly chemoselective towards aldehyde over other less electrophilic carbonyl functional groups such as ketone, amide, and carboxylic acid. Our in-house synthesized homopropargyl alcohols can be used to synthesize conjugated 1,3-diynes.
