DABCO is one of the more effective basic organocatalysts/reagents that can be used for a range of organic transformations, including C-H functionalization, formation of hetero-hetero bonds, rearrangements, the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, cyclizations and annulations, other miscellaneous reactions. This quinquennial review aims to critically and perceptively address noteworthy contributions of non chiral cata Read More

This review covers photoreduction reactions using xanthenes reported from 2011 to date and compares them with the conventional photocatalytic method. Xanthenes have strong absorption in the visible light spectrum (520-550 nm), and their redox potential resembles organometallic complexes, such as those containing Ir or Ru, and they are also easy to handle and accessible. In addition to being metal-free, photocat Read More

Acyl ureas are a well-known class of organic compounds that have drawn a lot of attention recently because of their array of chemical properties and possible multi-use in medicine. The article summarizes the synthetic procedures used to produce various Acyl urea synthons and includes instances of clinical trials, patents, and commercialized medications having Acyl urea and N-acyl urea moiety. This extensive study exam Read More

A luminescent calix[5]arene with a covalently linked dansyl chromophore substituent has been successfully used, both in solution and in the gas phase (ESI-MS), for the recognition of biogenic amines that contain linear alkylammonium structural unit. Binding constant values, determined by fluorescence spectroscopy, revealed a greater affinity for cadaverine, spermidine, and L-lysine, in which the terminal ammonium group Read More
