2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dimethylbenzoquinone reacted with di(sodiothio)maleonitrileto produce heterocyclic thianone, 6,7-dimethyl-5,8-dioxo-5,8-dihydro-1,4-benzodithin-2,3-dicarbonitrile which was cyclo-tetramerizedin the presence of lithium/pentanol and acetic acid producing tetra 6,7-dimethyl-5,8-dioxo-5,8-dihydro-1,4benzodithin-porphyrazine (2H-Pz). Likewise, the dicarbonitrile compound was cyclo-tetramerized in the presence of metal salt and quinoline affording tetra 6,7-dimethyl-5,8-dioxo-5,8-dihydro-1,4-benzodithinporphyrazinato-metal II (M-Pz), M is Co, Ni or Zn. Photoactivity of the synthesized porphyrazines was reached out to the visible light range. The prepared porphyrazines showed efficient sensitized catalysts by using of solar energy for the completely photocatalytic oxidation of thiophenol and benzyl thiol to their disulfides (with an average yield of 93% and 90%, respectively) in the presence of air atmosphere within 20 minutes.

The Ti-doped I2d-CN2 structures are favorable solar energy harvest or light-response materials due to their lower formation energy, high hardness and large absorption in the infrared and visible light range.

A visible-light-induced direct α-oxygenation of N-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives has been successfully developed. Metalloporphyrin (ZnTPP) has been identified as an effective and inexpensive photocatalyst for this transformation with a wide range of substrates. This protocol provides a convenient route to afford the desired products in moderate to good yields at room temperature under air atmosphere.

The present study aims at assessing the effect of microwave irradiation against thermal heat on the production of N-acetyl-p-anisidine by acetylation of p-anisidine. The acetylation of p-anisidine under microwave irradiation produces N-acetyl-p-anisidine in shorter reaction times, which offers a benefit to the laboratories as well as industries. It also eliminates the use of excess solvent. Effects of operating parameters such as reaction time, feed composition, and microwave energy and reaction temperature on selectivity to the desired product have been investigated. The results indicate as high as a 98% conversion of N-acetyl-p-anisidine can be achieved within 12-15 minutes using acetic acid. The use of acetic acid as an acetylating agent against conventionally used acetic anhydride eliminates the handling of explosive acetic anhydride and also the energy intensive distillation step for separation of acetic acid. Organic solvent like acetic anhydride are not only hazardous to the environment, they are also expensive and flammable.
