Chalcone derivatives were prepared by the condensation of various substituted aryl aldehydes and acetophenone in alkaline ethanol, while pyrimidine-2-thione derivatives were prepared by the combination of chalcones and thiourea under conventional and ultrasonic conditions. Advantages of the ultrasound effect were observed and high yields of the products were obtained after 20-30 min sonication. Characterization and structural elucidation of the products was realized based on chemical, analytical and spectral analyses. The results clearly demonstrated a high efficiency of the ultrasonic systems was achieved in the chemical processes.

Aim and Objective: In this work, we synthesized and characterized a novel Brönsted acidic ionic liquid from the reaction of N, N, N’, N’-tetramethylethylenediamine with chlorosulfonic acid and explored its catalytic activity in 1, 8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes synthesis. Materials and Methods: Dimedone, aryl aldehydes, and the ionic liquid as the catalyst were reacted under solvent-free conditions. The progressive of the reaction was monitored by a thin layer of chromatography (ethyl acetate/n-hexane = 1/5). All products were characterized as the basis of their spectra data and melting point by comparison with those reported in the literature. Results: The prepared ionic liquid was successfully applied in the synthesis of 1, 8-dioxooctahydroxanthenes in good to high yields on the reaction of aryl aldehyde and dimedone at 120oC under solvent-free conditions. Conclusion: This research demonstrates that the catalyst is impressive for 1, 8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes synthesis under solvent-free conditions.

Predominant ortho-selective mononitration of low-melting and liquid phenols and hydroxycoumarins in moderate to high yields has been accomplished upon grinding with solid cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN). Microwave-assisted expeditious CAN-mediated nitration of relatively high melting phenols and hydroxycoumarins with high efficiency and selectively under solvent-free conditions has been also developed to address the problems of sluggishness and low yield for these reluctant substrates.

The 3 wt% CuI/BNNS catalyst exhibited high efficiency for C–H difluoromethylation reactions and enabled greener synthesis at high yields using cyrene as a solvent. Furthermore, the catalyst could be easily recovered and recycled for at least five cycles.

Theories of radiationless conversions and of chemical processes were employed to design better photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT). In addition to photostability and intense absorption in the near infrared, these photosensitizers were required to generate high yields of long-lived triplet states that could efficiently transfer their energy, or an electron, to molecular oxygen. The guidance provided by the theories was combined with the ability to synthesize large quantities of pure photosensitizers and with the biological screening of graded hydrophilicities/lipophilicities. The theoretical prediction that halogenated sulfonamide tetraphenylbacteriochlorins could satisfy all the criteria for ideal PDT photosensitizers was verified experimentally.

Overhead irrigation is widely used to water lettuce during commercial production in China but exerts potential water wastage and pollution. Subirrigation is thought as a water-saving, high-efficiency fertigation strategy. However, few studies have compared the nutritional value and nitrate content of lettuce grown using subirrigation with plants cultivated with overhead irrigation. Therefore, this study explored the ability of ebb-and-flow subirrigation strategies to produce high yields of a leafy lettuce (cultivar Biscia Rossa) with high nutritional value and low nitrate content. Lettuce plants were cultivated in an ebb-and-flow subirrigation system with different irrigation frequencies (every 2 or 3 days) and immersion times (5, 10 or 15 minutes); overhead irrigation was used as control. Ebb-and-flow subirrigation significantly enhanced several lettuce growth parameters, significantly increased the level of vitamin C, and significantly decreased the nitrate content of lettuce leaves compared with overhead irrigation. The optimal subirrigation strategy for lettuce production was irrigation every 3 days with 15 minutes immersion; this ebb-and-flow subirrigation protocol could potentially be used to save water and resources, improve yield and nutrient contents and reduce nitrate content in commercial greenhouse lettuce production.

The utilisation of an ionic liquid-[bmim][BF4] as both reaction medium and promoter for the reaction between aldehyde and 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one is described. Without any added catalyst, this reaction was realised efficiently to give arylbispyranylmethane derivatives in high yields. Alternatively, when this reaction was carried out in the presence of acetic anhydride, fused pyran derivatives were obtained. These two novel procedures have advantages such as an environmentally benign nature, high efficiency, simple operation process and mild reaction conditions. As an application, these procedures were used in the preparation of novel 5-substituted pyrimidine nucleoside derivatives with potential antiviral activities.

AbstractA TiO2–SiO2 nanocomposite catalyzes the one-pot cyclocondensation reaction of 1H-indole-2,3-diones (isatins), 1,3-cyclohexanediones, and urea at T = 70°C under solvent-free conditions with high efficiency. The present method affords the corresponding spiro products in high yields and short reaction time. The unique features of the TiO2–SiO2 nanocomposite are high catalytic activity, ease of preparation, non-toxicity, low loading, and recyclability.

Diverse dithioic acid copper complexes exhibit a high catalytic activity in the copper-catalyzed alkyne–azide cycloaddition using several solvents under different temperatures, showing a high efficiency with only 0.005 mmol catalyst/mmol alkyne or less. A dithioic acid copper complex derived from acetophenone was selected and used as the catalyst in the preparation of a library of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles. This process occurred in high yields and good functional group tolerance.
