Several benzimidazole N-oxide derivatives were synthesized in very good yield by heating at reflux the corresponding N-alkyl-2-nitroaniline derivative with NaOH in 60% 1,4-dioxane–water. The effect of substituents on the aromatic ring and amino group on the reaction is discussed.Key words: synthesis, benzimidazole N-oxides.

A convenient route was successfully developed for the synthesis of novel heterocycles such as pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridines (PPP) from pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines in good yield. The PPP derivatives synthesized were further studied for their photophysical properties, and it was observed that absorption and emission λmax changed, owing to the substituent effect at 4 positions. These compounds were obtained from highly reactive starting materials, 5-aminopyrazoles and α-acetyl γ-butyrolactone.Key words: α-acetyl γ-butyrolactone, pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyridine, absorption, emission, fluorescence.

A convenient synthesis of 4-substituted 2-(3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1-phenethylpropylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidine- 1-carboxylic acid benzyl esters 17 and 18 as new cysteine protease inhibitors is described. The synthetic key strategies involve the diazocarbonyl insertion reaction of N-Boc-L-homophenylalanine (1) by diazomethane, acetylation of the bromoketone 2 with sodium acetate, and condensation of acids 12, 14 with (3S)-3-amino-2-oxo-5-phenyl-pentyl acetate monohydrochloride (4) in good yield

The effects of para substituents on the chemical shifts of the diastereotopic benzylic protons in three series of chiral molecules have been determined from a study of the 100 MHz spectra of these molecules in deuterochloroform. The results show that the slope, ρ, obtained from a plot of τ vs. Hammett σ constant, is influenced by a number of factors and that the conformational disposition of the benzylic proton with respect to the aromatic ring is not a dominant factor.

Cascade reactions are an important strategy in reaction ­design, allowing streamlining of chemical synthesis. Here we report a cascade Suzuki–Miyaura/Diels–Alder reaction, employing vinyl Bpin as a bifunctional reagent in two distinct roles: as an organoboron nucleo­phile for cross-coupling and as a Diels–Alder dienophile. Merging these two reactions enables a rapid and operationally simple synthesis of functionalized carbocycles in good yield. The effect of the organoboron subtype on Diels–Alder regioselectivity was investigated and postsynthetic modifications were carried out on a model substrate. The potential for a complementary Heck/Diels–Alder process was also assessed.
