A facile preparation of 3-hydroxy propanenitrile derivatives is described involving ring opening of epoxides with potassium cyanide in glycol solvents in the presence of Schiff base complexes as catalysts. This method occurs under neutral and mild conditions with high yields and high regioselectivity. Thus, several β-Hydroxy nitriles, useful intermediates toward biologically-active molecules, are easily obtained at room temperature.Key words: β-hydroxy nitrile, Schiff base, epoxide, glycol, catalyst.

We report a reductive allylic defluorinative reaction of α-trifluoromethyl alkenes with terminal epoxides, which consists of an iodide-mediated regioselective ring opening and a nickel-catalyzed radical-type cross-coupling, providing diverse tertiary gem-difluorobishomoallylic alcohols in moderate to high yields. Notably, this reaction is conducted under mild conditions and requires no external ligand or proton donor.

A copper-catalyzed direct sulfoxidation reaction by C(sp3)–H bond activation has been developed. Starting from sample aromatic methyl thioethers with aryl halides, versatile biologically-active arylbenzylsulfoxide derivatives were efficiently synthesized in good to high yields under mild conditions. This new methodology provides an economical approach toward C(sp3)–C(sp2) bond formation.

MgO catalyzed efficiently the ring opening of epoxides with a range of aromatic and aliphatic amines to produce β-substituted alcohols in high yields under solvent-free conditions. Exclusive trans stereoselectivity is observed for cyclic epoxide.Key words: MgO, β-amino alcohols, solvent-free, epoxide, amine.

A one-pot direct synthesis of a wide range of biologically active benzimidazoles through coupling of phenylenediamines and aldehydes catalyzed by a highly recyclable nonnoble cobalt nanocomposite was developed. A broad set of benzimidazoles can be efficiently synthesized in high yields and with good functional-group tolerance under additive- and oxidant-free mild conditions. The catalyst can be easily recycled for successive uses, and the process permits gram-scale syntheses of benzimidazoles.
