: The radical was first come into existence in 1900 by Gomberg, where the triphenylmethane radical was explored. Thus, even to date, two centuries have seen radical chemistry as the methodology of preference in organic synthesis. Due to the fascinating nature of the radical-mediated cyclization reactions, it always caught the eye of organic chemists for the synthesis of novel organic compounds with diverse stereochemistry. Moreover, the development of radical methods further proves beneficial for the synthesis by providing atom- and step-economical methods to complex molecules. Among these, where radical chemistry has been employed, the use of tin-based radical annulation is the most common and widely used field for the synthesis of a wide range of organic reactions with medicinal importance. In this review, we compiled recent tin-mediated radical cyclization reactions toward the synthesis of molecules of biological significance.

Abstract Radical cyclizations are essential reactions in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites and the chemical synthesis of societally valuable molecules. In this review, we highlight the general mechanisms utilized in biocatalytic radical cyclizations. We specifically highlight cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) involved in the biosynthesis of mycocyclosin and vancomycin, non-heme iron- and α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (Fe/αKGDs) used in the biosynthesis of kainic acid, scopolamine, and isopenicillin N, and radical S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) enzymes that facilitate the biosynthesis of oxetanocin A, menaquinone, and F420. Beyond natural mechanisms, we also examine repurposed flavin-dependent ‘ene’-reductases (ERED) for non-natural radical cyclization. Overall, these general mechanisms underscore the opportunity for enzymes to augment and enhance the synthesis of complex molecules using radical mechanisms.

Background:.Aziridine compounds are among the most fascinating intermediates in organic synthesis, acting as precursors of many complex molecules due to the strain incorporated in their skeletons and can be opened in a stereo controlled manner with various nucleophiles, providing access to a wide range of important nitrogen-containing products. Sonochemistry involves the use of ultrasound technique to promote organic reactions. In recent years sonochemistry has been widely used in organic syntheses as it offers a versatile and facile pathway for a bewildering range of organic reactions. Materials and Method: The synthesis of some Schiff bases was done in according the previously reported procedure in literature. The synthesized Schiff bases in the presence of magnesium powder and CCl4 in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran was converted to gem-dichloroaziridines at ultrasonic irradiation. Finally, the synthesized 2,2- dichloro-1,3-bis(4-chlorophenyl) aziridine was treated with DMSO and H2O with ultrasonic irradiation to produce the N-(4-chlorophenyl)-N-[4-(chlorophenyl)hydroxy-methyl] formamides. Results: Here, total synthesis of N-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-formamides through ultrasonic promoted oxidation and hydrolysis reaction of gem-dichloroaziridine derivatives in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide and water has been investigated. Conclusion: In this study, ultrasonic promoted oxidation and hydrolysis of gem-dichloroaziridines toward N- (α-hydroxybenzyl)-formamides in the presence of DMSO and H2O under neutral medium reaction conditions has been reported. Excellent yields of products were obtained through this method. Other advantages of this reaction are short reaction times, simplicity of the method and high purity of products.

The synthetic potential of enzymes related to organic synthesis has been applied profusely, especially since the introduction of their use in organic solvents. Enzymes offer the opportunity to carry out highly chemo-, regio-, and enantioselective transformations. The use of enzymes in the synthetic sequence provides unique advantages of efficiency and environmental friendliness. Owing to their low cost and applicability to a broad range of substrates, lipases have become the most versatile class of biocatalysts in organic synthesis. We have screened a battery of lipases to carry out highly selective reactions for the synthesis of a wide range of organic compounds and polymeric materials.

<p>Data on the reactivity of chlorine dioxide with organic compounds from various classes are summarized. Early investigations of the reactions of chlorine dioxide were occurred in aqueous or predominantly aqueous solutions in general, because it used in drinking water treatment and in industry as bleaching agent. However, chlorine dioxide was not used widely as reagent in organic synthesis. In last decades the number of publications on the studying interaction of the chlorine dioxide in organic medium increased. In table presented the rate constants reactions of chlorine dioxide with organic compounds published through 2004. Most of the rate constants were determined spectrophotometrically by decay kinetics of chlorine dioxide at 360 nm. Chlorine dioxide may be used for oxidation of organic compounds, because chlorine dioxide is enough reactive and selective as an oxidant with a wide range of organic compounds based on these reaction rate constants. But the application of chlorine dioxide as reagent in organic synthesis is restrained by the lack of data on the kinetics and mechanism of reactions involving chlorine dioxide, as well as data on the product yields and composition, temperature and solvent effects, and catalysts. The pathways of products formation and probable mechanisms of reactions are discussed in the review.</p>

: Organocatalysis has become a powerful tool in organic synthesis for the formation of C-C and C-X (N, S, O, etc.) bonds, leading to the formation of complex molecules from easily available starting materials. It provides an alternative platform to the conventional synthesis and fulfills the principles of green chemistry. During the last decades, taurine has emerged as a promising organocatalyst in an array of organic transformations in addition to its plentiful biological properties. It is highly stable, easy to store and separate, water-soluble, of low cost, easily available, and recyclable. The present article highlights the recent and up-to-date applications of taurine in organic transformations.

Abstract:: Mesoporous silica nanomaterials provide an extraordinary advantage for making new and superior heterogeneous catalysts because of their surface silanol groups. The functionalized mesoporous SBA-15, such as acidic, basic, BrÖnsted, lewis acid, and chiral catalysts, are used for a wide range of organic synthesis. The importance of the chiral ligands, which were immobilized on the SBA-15, was mentioned in this review to achieve chiral products as valuable target molecules.
