An efficient one-pot synthesis of anthraquinones and tetracenediones was achieved by l-proline catalyzed benzannulation of commercially available 1,4-naphthoquinones or 1,4-anthracenedione with a variety of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in good to excellent yield.

Various substituted indolizidinium, quinolizinium and pyrido[1,2-a]azepinium salts were synthesized from benzaldehydes (α,β-unsaturated aldehydes) and alkyne–amines via Rh-catalyzed C–H activation.

An efficient one-pot synthesis for Janus-type fullerenol derivatives and how to characterize them is reported. This synthesis provides access to asymmetrically substituted fullerenol with five substituents on one pole of the fullerene and polyhydroxylation moieties, mostly ether and hydroxy groups, on the rest of the fullerene core. As substituents a broad variety of primary amines can be used to obtain Janus-type amphiphilic fullerenols in good to excellent yield. These fullerenol amphiphiles can serve as suitable precursors for further reactions resulting in new applications for fullerenols.

2,3-Dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines were synthesized by reaction ofo-phenylenediamine with ketones (acyclic / cyclic) under solvent free conditions in the presence of tetra butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) in short reaction time with excellent yield.

The low-melting mixture urea–ZnCl2 was evaluated as a novel reaction medium for the synthesis of imidazoles. The reaction between a dicarbonyl compound, ammonium acetate, and an aromatic aldehyde is efficiently catalyzed by the eutectic solvent, yielding a wide variety of triaryl-1H-imidazoles or 2-aryl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazoles in good to excellent yields. In addition, the eutectic solvent was reused in five cycles without loss of its catalytic activity. This protocol was further explored for the synthesis of the drug trifenagrel, giving an excellent yield.
