	abstract = {<p>Cu(OH)(x) has been encapsulated over montmorillonite-KSF by simple ologomeric deposition strategy. The resulting catalyst has been employed for selective homocoupling of arylboronic acids under ambient conditions without requirement of any ligand or base. This catalyst is easy to recover and shows excellent reusability without losing its activity. Techniques like XRD, SEM, TPR, IR, BET surface area measurement and XPS were used to characterize the catalyst. The present method promises for the simple and clean homocoupling of arylboronic acids.

	We have developed a new approach for the synthesis of 1,6-diketones via iron-catalyzed ring opening of cyclopropanol with a nontoxic, inexpensive iron catalyst under open-air conditions. This method eliminates the need for additives and employs tert-butanol as an eco-friendly solvent. This methodology allows rapid access to a variety of symmetrical 1,6-diketones under mild conditions. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed the involvement of radical pathways.</p>
