A tin-catalyzed solvent free one-pot multi-component cascade reaction strategy for the direct Michael addition/C(sp(3))-H functionalization of 2-alkylazaarenes with aldehydes and ketones via an aldol reaction has been developed. This is the first report and provides cost effective new access to potent biologically/medicinally important azaarene derivatives with high atom economy.

This is the first example in which base promoted heterogeneous, reusable copper fluorapatite (CuFAP) catalyzed C(sp3)-H functionalization of various nitrotoluenes was achieved under ligand-, additive- free reaction condition. The developed protocol is an environmentally benign approach, which replaces cumbersome protocols, avoids the use of costly precious metal catalysts, prefunctionalized substrates, and toxic reagents. The heterogeneous CuFAP catalyst was recovered by simple filtration and reused several times without the loss of its catalytic activity. The selective functional group transformation of 1,2-diaryethanol was accomplished.}, doi = {10.1002/slct.201702416}, author = {Shaikh, Taufeekaslam M. Y. and Mulla, Shafeek A.

The simple, mild, novel and an efficient new protocol has been developed for the straightforward synthesis of 2-cyanoacrylamides. This is the first report in which Sn-catalyzed acetic acid free selective monohydration of dinitrile was achieved for a one pot cascade synthesis of 2-cyanoacrylamides in good to excellent yield via condensation of various aldehydes, heterocyclic aldehydes with malononitrile.
