Using Cu/ETS-10 to synthesize Z-3-methyleneisoindolin-1-ones through coupling–cyclization of 2-halobenzamides with aromatic alkynes in the absence of protected 2-halobenzamides and ligands.
The reactivity of Pd-PVP NPs was evaluated in C–H bond activation for heterocycles synthesis under mild conditions. Their in vitro activity against solid tumor cell lines was assessed, revealing potential as anticancer agents.
A direct one-pot synthesis for novel heterocycles, isothiazole-3-thiones and isoselenazole-3-selenones via the annulation of ferrocenyl/phenyl-β-chloro acrylaldehyde, amines and chalcogen powder (S and Se) has been established.
This review summarizes the recent progress in the field of the synthesis of N-heterocyclic skeletons through three types of conversion reactions of nitriles using transition metal-catalyzed and metal-free promoted strategies.
A rhodium-catalyzed C–H activation and three-component coupling of oxazolines, vinylene carbonate and carboxylic acids has been developed for the synthesis of isoquinolones.
