RESUMEN
Alkene carbofunctionalization reactions have great potential for synthesizing complex molecules and constructing complex structures in natural products and medicinal chemistry. Recently, dual photoredox/nickel catalysis has emerged as a novel strategy for alkene carbofunctionalization. Nickel offers numerous advantages over other transition metals, such as cost-effectiveness, abundance, and low toxicity, and moreover, it has many oxidation states. Nickel catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity in dual photoredox/transition metal catalysis, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bonds in organic transformations. This review highlights the latest advancements in dual photoredox/nickel-catalyzed alkene carbofunctionalizations and includes the literature published from 2020 to 2024.
RESUMEN
A quinazolin-4(3H)-one ring system is a privileged heterocyclic moiety with distinctive biological properties. From this perspective, the development of an efficient strategy for the synthesis of quinazolin-4(3H)-one has always been in demand for the synthetic chemistry community. In this report, we envisaged an efficient protocol for the synthesis of quinazolin-4(3H)-one using substituted 2-amino benzamide with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a carbon source and H2O2 as an effective oxidant. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds through the radical approach with DMSO as one carbon source. To further substantiate the synthetic claim, the synthetic protocol has been extended to the synthesis of the anti-endotoxic active compound 3-(2-carboxyphenyl)-4-(3H)-quinazolinone.
RESUMEN
Over the past decades, reactions involving C-H functionalization have become a hot theme in organic transformations because they have a lot of potential for the streamlined synthesis of complex molecules. C(sp3)-H bonds are present in most organic species. Since organic molecules have massive significance in various aspects of life, the exploitation and functionalization of C(sp3)-H bonds hold enormous importance. In recent years, the first-row transition metal-catalyzed direct and selective functionalization of C-H bonds has emerged as a simple and environmentally friendly synthetic method due to its low cost, unique reactivity profiles and easy availability. Therefore, research advancements are being made to conceive catalytic systems that foster direct C(sp3)-H functionalization under benign reaction conditions. Cobalt-based catalysts offer mild and convenient reaction conditions at a reasonable expense compared to conventional 2nd and 3rd-row transition metal catalysts. Consequently, the probing of Co-based catalysts for C(sp3)-H functionalization is one of the hot topics from the outlook of an organic chemist. This review primarily focuses on the literature from 2018 to 2022 and sheds light on the substrate scope, selectivity, benefits and limitations of cobalt catalysts for organic transformations.
RESUMEN
Transition metal-free organic transformations using K2S2O8 is one of the most efficient methods for the formation of carbon-carbon/carbon-heteroatom bond in organic synthesis. K2S2O8-mediated transformations provide a cost-effective and green method for these type of transformations. In addition, these reaction methods are alternatives for many metal-mediated/catalyzed reactions. This article mainly describes the recent advances in K2S2O8-mediated cyclization/coupling reactions via oxidative transformation in organic synthesis in the last few years.
RESUMEN
Recently, gem-diborylalkanes have attracted much attention as versatile building blocks and fundamental intermediates in organic synthesis, because they enable multiple C-C bond construction and further transformation at C-B bonds. Importantly, gem-diborylalkanes can be utilised as bisnucleophilic partners in a variety of chemo-selective C-C bond-forming reactions. This review describes recent developments in synthesising gem-diborylalkanes in complex molecules along with their chemical transformation. In the first part of the review the different synthetic approaches used to synthesise gem-diborylalkanes are described. In the second part, an overview of the chemoselective transformation of gem-diborylalkanes into various functionalized materials is discussed along with one-carbon homologation of diborylmethane via a selective uni- and bidirectional method.
