Article Abstract
Quinone imines are important derivatives of quinones with a wide range of applications in organic synthesis and the pharmaceutical industry. The attack of nucleophilic reagents on quinone imines tends to lead to aromatization of the quinone skeleton, resulting in both the high reactivity and the unique reactivity of quinone imines. The extreme value of quinone imines in the construction of nitrogen- or oxygen-containing heterocycles has attracted widespread attention, and remarkable advances have been reported recently. This review provides an overview of the application of quinone imines in the synthesis of cyclic compounds via the domino annulation reaction.

Displaying versatile biological activity, Schiff bases are known to possess prominent optical, thermal, and metal coordination properties, rendering them prospective for the design of dyes, photonic devices, ion sensors, molecular probes, etc. Furthermore, azomethine compounds bearing a phenolic moiety may exert antioxidant action. In this work, the antioxidant activity of the bis-substituted and mono-substituted phenolic azomethine dyes derived from 4,6-di-tert-butyl-2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde was determined in DPPH radical and ABTS cation radical scavenging assays, FRAP and CUPRAC metal reducing assays, and ferrous iron chelating activity assay.

Organic materials have garnered increasing attention in aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) owing to their structural tunability, diversity, and sustainability. Nevertheless, their practical applications in AZIBs cathode remain hindered by challenges including low capacity, short cycle lifespan, and ambiguous ion insertion mechanisms. Herein, we strategically eliminate intramolecular hydrogen bonds in quinone-based organic molecule indanthrone through oxidation method, transforming it into multi-active-site quinone-imine compound oxidized indanthrone (oIDT).

Aqueous ammonium-ion batteries (AAIBs) have attracted significant attention, with Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) emerging as promising cathode materials. Although Mn-PBA possesses multiple redox-active centers and high specific capacity in AAIBs, its limited structural stability and inadequate utilization of active sites continue to hinder its broader application. In this work, a novel, direct, and efficient strategy utilizing tannic acid (TA) is employed to achieve omnidirectional modulation of Mn-PBA, leading to the full exposure of active sites within the Mn-PBA-TA framework.

Herein, we have demonstrated an acid-catalyzed reaction that selectively performs the -functionalization of anilines in a nondirected one-pot procedure. In addition to dramatically simplifying the synthesis of -substituted anilines, our approach has the advantage of the scalability and remarkable regioselectivity, including product derivatization. The control experiments provide insight into the reaction mechanism and the origin of -selectivity.
