This review outlines tuneable reactivity patterns of aryldiazonium salts and azo-retention strategies for the synthesis of diverse N-heterocycles, highlighting catalyst selection and comparative performance.
Development of novel and efficient synthetic methods to achieve valuable N-heterocycles from aryldiazonium salts has been an important research area in organic chemistry for several decades.
An efficient metal-free approach for the synthesis of isoindolinones and isoquinolinones from 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-ones via electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complex formation under visible light is described.
We described a visible-light-photocatalysis driven denitrogenative/radical 1,3-shift of benzotriazole to generate unusual aromatic amine radical which then undergo direct amination with quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones leading to 3-aryl-aminoquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones.
The UV-activated peracetic acid process (UV/PAA) exhibited efficient degradation and detoxification of benzotriazole (BT) and benzothiazole (BTH). Detailed mechanistic insights into the UV/PAA degradation of BT and BTH have been thoroughly explored.
