Synthesis of photoreactive solvent-free acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives in the recovered system The present paper discloses a novel photoreactive solvent-free acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) systems, especially suitable for the so much adhesive film applications as the double-sided, single-sided or carrier-free technical tapes, self-adhesive labels, protective films, marking and sign films and wide range of medical products. The novel photoreactive solvent-free pressure-sensitive adhesives contain no volatile organic compounds (residue monomers or organic solvent) and comply with the environment and legislation. The synthesis of this new type of acrylic PSA is conducted in common practice by solvent polymerisation. After the organic solvent are removed, there remains a non-volatile, solvent-free highly viscous material, which can be processed on a hot-melt coating machine at the temperatures of about 100 to 140°C.

Abstract Ultrasound-assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (UA-DLLME) based on solidification of the floating organic solvent droplets (SFO) combined with HPLC was used for determination of five fungicides in fruit juice samples. 1-Dodecanol, which has a low density and low toxicity, was used as the extraction solvent in UA-DLLME. The solidification of floating organic dropletsfacilitates the transfer of analytes from the aqueous phase to the organic phase. This method was easy, quick, inexpensive, precise, and linear over a wide range. Under the optimized conditions, the enrichment factors for a 5 mL fruit juice sample were 25 to 56, and the LODs for the five fungicides ranged from 5 to 50 μg/L. The average recoveries ranged from 71.8 to 118.2% with RSDsof 0.9 to 13.9%. Application of the DLLME-SFO technique allows successful separation and preconcentration of the fungicides at a low concentration level in fruit juice samples.

A new multicomponent reaction has been developed between isocyanides, sulfur and alcohols or thiols under mild reaction conditions to afford O-thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates in moderate to good yields. The one-pot reaction cascade involves the formation of an isothiocyanate intermediate, thus a catalyst-free synthesis of isothiocyanates, as valuable building blocks from isocyanides and sulfur is proposed, as well. The synthetic procedure suits the demand of a modern organic chemist, as it tolerates a wide range of functional groups, it is atom economic and easily scalable.

A wide range of α-diazo-β-ketosulfones have been applied to thermally promoted tandem Wolff rearrangement – Staudinger [2+2] cycloaddition with imines to give polysubstituted β-lactam sulfones. Dia­stereomerically pure syn-diastereomers were obtained in good yields and the relative stereochemistry was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. These findings significantly expand the scope of this transformation, in contrast to substantial limitations reported previously. Moreover, this methodology enables flexible exploration of new substitution patterns around the privileged β-lactam core for drug design and optimization.

Abstract Ecuador is one of the most affected countries, with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection, in Latin America derived from an ongoing economic crisis. One of the most important methods for COVID-19 detection is the use of techniques such as real time RT- PCR based on a previous extraction/purification of RNA procedure from nasopharyngeal cells using functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNP). This technique allows the processing of ~10,000 tests per day in private companies and around hundreds per day at local Universities guaranteeing to reach a wide range of the population. However, the main drawback of this method is the need for specialized MNP with a strong negative charge for the viral RNA purification to detect the existence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Here we present a simplified low cost method to produce 10 g of nanoparticles in 100 mL of solution that was scaled to one litter by parallelizing the process 10 times in just two days and allowing for the possibility of making ~50,000 COVID-19 tests. This communication helps in reducing the cost of acquiring MNP for diverse biomolecular applications supporting developing country budgets constraints and chemical availability specially during the COVID-19 International Health Emergency.

A catalyst-free atmosphere and light tuned highly diastereoselective synthesis of cyclobuta/penta[b]indoles from aniline-tethered alkylidenecyclopropanes and alkynes was developed, which provided a wide range of cyclobuta- and cyclopenta[b]indole derivatives in good yields.

Operationally simple, atom economical, and scalable synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles from benzil, aldehydes, and ammonium acetate is shown to proceed readily in methanol with high yield. The scope of the reaction is quite broad; a variety of aromatic and aliphatic activated and unactivated aldehydes have all been shown to be viable substrates for this reaction. Excellent yields and purity were obtained by washing the products with hot ethanol.

A mild and efficient catalyst-free method for the rapid synthesis at room temperature of 3-thiomethylated oxindole derivatives has been achieved via the Michael addition of aryl thiols to ring and 1-substituted 3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylidene)oxindoles in dichloromethane. The method was applicable to a wide range of thiols and variously substituted 3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylidene)oxindoles under mild conditions as demonstrated by the synthesis in high yields with good diastereoselectivities of 30 3-thiomethylated oxindoles bearing a trifluoromethyl group.
