: The investigation of the procedures for the multi-component synthesis of heterocycles has attracted the interest of organic and medicinal chemists. The use of heterogeneous catalysts, especially transition metal catalysts in organic synthesis, can provide a new, improved alternative to traditional methods in modern synthetic chemistry. The main focus is on the utilization of silver as a catalyst for the multi-component synthesis of heterocyclic compounds. The present review describes some important reported studies for the period of 2010 to 2020. Conclusion: The present review addresses some of the important reported studies on multi-component synthesis of heterocycles in the period of 2010-2020. These approaches were performed under classical and nonclassical conditions, using Ag salts, Ag NPs, Ag on the support, Ag as co-catalysts with other transition metals, ionic liquids, acidic or basic materials. Most of the reported reactions were performed under solvent-free conditions or in green solvents and the utilized catalysts were mostly recyclable. The main aim of the present review is to provide the organic chemists with the most appropriate procedures in the multi-component synthesis of desired heterocycles using silver catalysts.

Azetidin-2-ones (β-lactams) and its derivatives are an important group of heterocyclic compounds that exhibit a wide range of pharmacological properties such as antibacterial, anticancer, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and anticonvulsant. Efforts have been made over the years to develop novel congeners with superior biological activities and minimal potential for undesirable side effects. The present review aimed to highlight some recent discoveries (2013-2019) on the development of novel azetidin-2-one-based compounds as potential anticancer agents.

During the last twenty years, our research group has been working with aromatic nitrosubstituted compounds acting as electrophiles in Polar Diels-Alder (P-DA) reactions with different dienes of diverse nucleophilicity. In this type of reaction, after the cycloaddition reaction, the nitrated compounds obtained as the [4+2] cycloadducts suffer cis-extrusion with the loss of nitrous acid and a subsequent aromatization. In this form, the reaction results are irreversible. On the other hand, the microwave-assisted controlled heating become a powerful tool in organic synthesis as it makes the reaction mixture undergo heating by a combination of thermal effects, dipolar polarization and ionic conduction. As the Diels-Alder (D-A) reaction is one of the most important process in organic synthesis, the microwave (MW) irradiation was applied instead of conventional heating, and this resulted in better yields and shorter reaction times. Several substituted heterocyclic compounds were used as electrophiles and different dienes as nucleophiles. Two experimental situations are involved: one in the presence of Protic Ionic Liquids (PILs) as solvent and the other under solvent-free conditions. The analysis is based on experimental data and theoretical calculations.

Nitrogen-containing heterocycles are one of the most common structural motifs in approximately 80% of the marketed drugs. Of these, benzimidazoles analogues are known to elicit a wide spectrum of pharmaceutical activities such as anticancer, antibacterial, antiparasitic, antiviral, antifungal as well as chemosensor effect. Based on the benzimidazole core fused heterocyclic compounds, crescent-shaped bisbenzimidazoles were developed which provided an early breakthrough in the sequence-specific DNA recognition. Over the years, a number of functional variations in the bisbenzimidazole core have led to the emergence of their unique properties and established them as versatile ligands against several classes of pathogens. The present review provides an overview of diverse pharmacological activities of the bisbenzimidazole analogues in the past decade with a brief account of its development through the years.

Background:: Bimetallic nanocomposites have currently gained significant importance for enhanced catalytic applications relative to monometallic analogues. The synergistic interactions modified electronic and optical properties in the bimetallic (M1@M2) structural morphology e.g., core-shell /alloy nanostructures resulted in a better co-catalytic performance for TiO2 photocatalysis. Objective:: Hence, this article discusses the preparation, characterization, and co-catalytic activity of different bimetallic nanostructures namely, Cu@Zn, Pd@Au, Au@Ag, and Ag@Cu, etc. Method:: These bimetallic co-catalysts deposited on TiO2 possess the ability to absorb visible light due to surface plasmonic absorption and are also expected to display the new properties due to synergy between two distinct metals. As a result, they reveal the highest level of activity than the monometal deposited TiO2. Result:: Their optical absorption, emission, charge carrier dynamics, and surface structural morphology are explained for the improved photocatalytic activity of M1@M2 loaded TiO2 for the hydrogenation of certain organic compounds e.g., quinoline, crotonaldehyde, and 1,3-dinitrobenzene, etc. under UV/ visible light irradiation. Conclusion:: It revealed that the use of bimetallic core@shell co-catalyst for hydrogenation of important industrial organics by M1@M2-TiO2 nanocomposite demonstrates beneficial reactivity in many instances relative to conventional transition metal catalysts.

AbstractThere is an ongoing debate on elucidating the actual role of Fe impurities in alkaline water electrolysis, acting either as reactivity mediators or as co-catalysts through synergistic interaction with the main catalyst material. This perspective summarizes the most prominent oxygen evolution reaction (OER) mechanisms mostly for Ni-based oxides as model transition metal catalysts and highlights the effect of Fe incorporation on the catalyst surface in the form of impurities originating from the electrolyte or co-precipitated in the catalyst lattice, in modulating the OER reaction kinetics, mechanism and stability.

: Heterocycles are the most important skeleton as they are biologically and medicinally significant. Various chemical methods have been utilized for their synthesis. Among them, environmentally benign condition are most important as they produce less toxic waste and requires less toxic solvents and reagents. There is various literature available on sustainable and multicomponent synthetic. However, it is difficult for the researcher to keep up with the research. Therefore, a review article in the sustainable and multicomponent synthesis of heterocycle was highly required. Herein, we have compiled the literature related to multicomponent reaction under solvent-free conditions, ultrasound-assisted, water or ionic liquid mediated conditions.

In recent decades, a great deal of attention has been paid to the exploration of alternative and sustainable resources to produce biofuels and valuable chemicals, with aims of reducing the reliance on depleting confined fossil resources and alleviating serious economic and environmental issues. In line with this, lignocellulosic biomass-derived lactic acid (LA, 2-hydroxypropanoic acid), to be identified as an important biomass-derived commodity chemical, has found wide applications in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In spite of the current fermentation of saccharides to produce lactic acid, sustainability issues such as environmental impact and high cost derived from the relative separation and purification process will be growing with the increasing demands of necessary orders. Alternatively, chemocatalytic approaches to manufacture LA from biomass (i.e., inedible cellulose) have attracted extensive attention, which may give rise to higher productivity and lower costs related to product work-up. This work presents a review of the state-of-the-art for the production of LA using homogeneous, heterogeneous acid, and base catalysts, from sugars and real biomass like rice straw, respectively. Furthermore, the corresponding bio-based esters lactate which could serve as green solvents, produced from biomass with chemocatalysis, is also discussed. Advantages of heterogeneous catalytic reaction systems are emphasized. Guidance is suggested to improve the catalytic performance of heterogeneous catalysts for the production of LA.
