By varying the steric and electronic surroundings of the hydrogen-bonding motif, the novel chiral Cinchona-alkaloid based selenoureas were developed. Acting as bifunctional catalysts, they were applied in the Michael reactions of dithiomalonate and nitrostyrene providing chiral adducts with up to 96% ee. The asymmetric Michael–-hemiacetalization reaction of benzylidene pyruvate and dimedone, performed with the assistance of 5 mol% of selenoureas, furnished the product with up to 93% ee and excellent yields. The effectiveness of the new hydrogen-bond donors was also proved in solvent-free reactions under ball mill conditions, supporting the sustainability of the devised catalytic protocol.

The 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene DBU-catalyzed Phospho-Aldol-Brook Rearrangement reaction of α-ketoamide and dialkyl phosphites was developed under solvent-free at room temperature. The novel α-Phosphate Amide derivatives could be obtained with good yield (86–96%), which also exhibited good tolerance of various dialkyl phosphites and α-ketoamide, including isatins. In addition, the reaction was conducted in both gram-scale and mol-scale, and the title compounds could also be obtained in excellent yield (more than 91%) within 5 min.

A number of per-6-substituted cyclodextrin derivative syntheses have been effectively carried out in a planetary ball mill under solvent-free conditions. The preparation of Bridion® and important per-6-amino/thiocyclodextrin intermediates without polar aprotic solvents, a source of byproducts and persistent impurities, could be performed. Isolation and purification processes could also be simplified. Considerably lower alkylthiol/halide ratio were necessary to reach the complete reaction in comparison with thiourea or azide reactions. While the presented mechanochemical syntheses were carried out on the millimolar scale, they are easily scalable.

The title compound, C18H18N4OS2, was prepared by reaction ofS,S-diethyl 2-thenoylimidodithiocarbonate with 5-amino-3-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazole using microwave irradiation under solvent-free conditions. In the molecule, the thiophene unit is disordered over two sets of atomic sites, with occupancies of 0.814 (4) and 0.186 (4), and the bonded distances provide evidence for polarization in the acylthiourea fragment and for aromatic type delocalization in the pyrazole ring. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is present, forming anS(6) motif, and molecules are linked by N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a ribbon in which centrosymmetricR22(4) rings, built from N—H...O hydrogen bonds and flanked by inversion-related pairs ofS(6) rings, alternate with centrosymmetricR22(6) rings built from N—H...N hydrogen bonds.

The design of various types of synthetic heme models has allowed the fine tuning of the location of hydrogen bond donors around the ferrous coordination site. Through the years, it has migrated from a lateral to a quasi-apical position. Still, the unambiguous existence of an actual H-bond with the dioxygen adduct remains to be established.
