A Brønsted acid-catalyzed domino ring-opening cyclization transformation of donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes and 2-naphthols has been developed. This formal [3+2] cyclization reaction provided novel and efficient access to the naphthalene-fused cyclopentanes in the absence of any transition-metal catalysts or additives. This robust procedure was completed smoothly on a gram-scale to afford the corresponding product with comparable efficiency. Furthermore, the synthetic application of the prepared product has been demonstrated by its transformation into a variety of synthetically useful molecules.

A metal free and green synthetic methodology employing aldehydes, phenylhydrazine and styrene mediated by TfOH has been developed to access 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazolines. The synthetic application of the methodology is demonstrated in the synthesis of a pyrazoline alkaloid.

Abstract N-heterocyclic phosphines (NHPs) have recently emerged as a new group of promising catalysts for metal-free reductions, owing to their unique hydridic reactivity. The excellent hydricity of NHPs, which rivals or even exceeds those of many metal-based hydrides, is the result of hyperconjugative interactions between the lone-pair electrons on N atoms and the adjacent σ*(P–H) orbital. Compared with the conventional protic reactivity of phosphines, this umpolung P–H reactivity leads to hydridic selectivity in NHP-mediated reductions. This reactivity has therefore found many applications in the catalytic reduction of polar unsaturated bonds and in the hydroboration of pyridines. This review summarizes recent progress in studies of the reactivity and synthetic applications of these phosphorus-based hydrides, with the aim of providing practical information to enable exploitation of their synthetically useful chemistry.

Visible light promoted chemo-selective metal free hydrogenation of activated double bond has been achieved via photoredox catalysis. Eosin Y has proved to an efficient catalyst for the effective reduction of C-C double bonds of isatins, oxindoles and maleimides under visible light. The method worked efficiently without the aid of any external reductants. Commercially viable DIPEA has been employed as a sacrificial electron donor and it’s in-situ generated cationic radical acts as reductant in this transformation. The method proved to be practical as a broad range of substrates containing activated double bond were easily reduced. The method proved to be scalable on a gram scale and the reduced product has been utilized successfully for the further synthetic application. The systematic and detailed mechanistic studies reveal the reductive quenching of the photocatalyst by the activated double bond.

The formation of shadows behind small particles has been thought to be a geometric process (GP) where the metal cap build up on the particle creates a shadow width the same size as or larger than the particle. This GP cannot explain why gold particle shadow widths are generally larger than the gold particle and may have no appreciable metal cap build up (fig. 1). Ruben and Telford have suggested that particle shadow widths are formed by the width dependent deflection of shadow metal (SM) lateral to and infront of the particle. The trajectory of the deflected SM is determined by the incoming shadow angle (45°). Since there can be up to 1.4 times (at 45°) more SM directly striking the particle than the film surface, a ridge of metal nuclei lateral to and infront of the particle can be formed. This ridge in turn can prevent some SM from directly landing in the metal free shadow area. However, the SM that does land in the shadow area (not blocked by the particle or its ridge) does not stick and apparently surface migrates into the SM film behind the particle.
