Article Abstract

In contrast to the recent reports on catalytic hydroboration of amides to amines with pinacolborane (HBpin), a simple catalyst-free and solvent-free method for the hydroboration of a variety of amides has been realized. To get the mechanistic insights, DFT calculations have been performed.

Developing efficient and sustainable catalytic systems for carbon dioxide utilization is crucial in tackling the challenges posed by increasing greenhouse gas emissions. This study investigates the co-catalyst- and solvent-free cycloaddition of CO with epoxides using a series of iron-based metal phosphonates, FePPA (iron phenylphosphonate), FeHEDP (iron hydroxyethylidene diphosphonate), and FeEDTMP (iron ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonate), with the aim of elucidating the role of acidic-basic sites in enhancing their catalytic performance. These catalysts, prepared using phosphonic acids with various functional groups, offer a platform for examining how structural modifications influence CO fixation efficiency.

A sustainable, catalyst-free and solvent-free method for the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles was developed using visible blue light-emitting diode (LED) light (24 W) under ambient conditions. The reaction proceeds via an electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex mechanism, achieving excellent yields (80%-99%) within 30 min without requiring hazardous reagents. Structural characterization of the synthesized compounds (4a-4k and 5a-5k) was confirmed through H NMR, C NMR, IR, MS and single-crystal x-ray diffraction (XRD).

High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) was found to be an efficient activation method in several catalyst- and solvent-free reactions and has found application for the syntheses of heterocycles and the preparation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) via acylation and acid- and solvent-free esterification. The reactions were carried out at ambient pressure (control) and under HHP (up to 3.8 kbar) conditions.

The efficient and sustainable conversion of carbon dioxide (CO) into value-added chemicals represents a promising approach for addressing environmental and energy challenges. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a series of ionic liquid-functionalized covalent organic frameworks, [DD]-PB-COF (X = 25, 50, 75, 100), via postsynthetic modification of hydroxyl-containing COFs using triethylenediamine-based ionic liquids. The resulting materials exhibit high crystallinity, tunable active site density, and well-defined one-dimensional channels conducive to CO mass transport.

Silicone elastomers are commonly cured by hydrosilylation or condensation reactions, both of which require metal-based catalysts. Due to environmental, toxicological, and cost concerns, there is considerable interest in developing metal-free alternatives. Herein, we present a novel solution via an atom-efficient, catalyst-free ring-opening of poly(2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPOx) as a curing agent.
