An efficient method has been developed for the green synthesis of alkylated quinolines via Cu‐TEMPO catalyzed dehydrogenation, and DEP/DES‐assisted benzylic C−H functionalization followed by cross Rauhut‐Currier type reaction. The reaction mechanism is elucidated through control experiments and 1H NMR reaction monitoring. This transformation offers several advantages, including moderate to good yields of the desired products, mild reaction conditions, use of a cost‐effective metal catalyst, good functional group tolerance, and applicability to gram‐scale synthesis. Additionally, the synthetic utility and the photophysical properties of the synthesized alkylated quinoline derivatives were investigated.

Emissive organic semiconductors are crucial for integrated optoelectronic devices, yet only a limited number of materials exhibit high mobility and high photoluminescence quantum yield because of the contradictory requirements for molecular stacking. In this study, two diphenylperylene isomers, 39P‐Ph and 310P‐Ph, were successfully synthesized through a one‐step process by varying the positions of the substituent phenyl groups on the perylene core. Both compounds were comprehensively characterized and demonstrated excellent hole transport capabilities and moderate photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), along with long‐wavelength emission, establishing them as effective emissive organic semiconductors. 39P‐Ph emits orange‐yellow fluorescence in crystalline powder with an absolute PLQY of 15.4 % and 310P‐Ph shows orange‐red emission with an emissive wavelength of up to 612 nm in 17.5 % PLQY. Moreover, the carrier mobilities of 39P‐Ph and 310P‐Ph are up to 3.05 cm2 V−1 s−1 and 1.36 cm2 V−1 s−1, respectively, based on the single‐crystal devices. These results reveal that 39P‐Ph and 310P‐Ph are promising candidates as emissive semiconductors, offering a balance between efficient charge transport and light emission for integrated optoelectronic applications.

The utilization of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) as supports for nanocatalysts has garnered considerable interest in recent research due to their unique properties and several advantages. In this regard, we present a review of the use of MCC or CNC‐based nanocatalysts and their catalytic performance in organic reactions under milder and sustainable reaction conditions. The inherent advantages of MCC, such as its abundance, biocompatibility, and versatile surface, make it more attractive support material for nanocatalysts. Similarly, CNCs, with their high surface area, tunable surface chemistry, and sustainable nature, offer promising prospects for enhancing catalytic processes. The synergy between the cellulose‐based material and nanoparticles exhibits several novel properties. This review highlights the key features, advantages, and catalytic applications of MCC as well as CNC‐supported nanocatalysts, emphasizing their role in promoting more sustainable and efficient organic transformations.

A TEMPO‐mediated method has been developed for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)‐methane derivatives by the cross‐dehydrogenative coupling between C(sp3)−H of para‐cresol derivatives and C(sp2)−H of indoles in moderate yields under aqueous conditions. This method utilizes toluene derivatives as starting materials, allowing for coupling without the need for further functionalization. The use of environmentally friendly water as a solvent minimizes waste generation. Electron‐donating groups such as methyl and methoxy, as well as halogens like fluorine, chlorine, and bromine, exhibit good tolerance in this process. Furthermore, a possible reaction mechanism is proposed to elucidate the formation of BIMs.

A novel unconventional redox‐neutral regioselective iodoamination of allenamides was developed. In the absence of metal catalyst, base and oxidant, the selective iodoamination of allenamides was achieved by using iodide salt in combination with morpholine/imidazole. The Iodide‐substituted Z‐enamides were synthesized under mild reaction conditions, and the products were stable and highly amenable to further modification.

A tandem annulation reaction of allyl ketones and β‐aryl ethenesulfonyl fluorides has been described. Under the catalysis of Brønsted base, allyl ketones reacted with β‐aryl ethenesulfonyl fluorides through a tandem intermolecular Michael addition‐intramolecular SuFEx process to afford γ‐alkenylated δ‐sultones in good to excellent yields. In this reaction, no additional base was needed, and 4 Å molecular sieves were used as efficient HF scavenger to restrict the neutralization and deactivation of the Brønsted base catalyst.

α‐Carboline is an important scaffold present in various synthetic and naturally obtained bioactive compounds possessing a wide range of pharmacological properties. Hence, in the current comprehensive review, we intend to present the main routes to the synthesis of α‐carboline analogs based on various pathways such as pyrrole, benzene, and pyridine ring annulation. The pathways include either or combinations of transition metal‐catalyzed amination/arylation, Graebe‐Ullmann reaction (thermal pyrolysis, photochemical cyclization), Diels‐Alder cycloaddition and condensation reactions, N‐Heterocyclic carbene catalysed reactions, decarboxylative annulation, etc. of substituted benzene, pyridine, quinoline, and indole derivatives in order to compare the potential of synthetic routes of this series and consolidate the development, current status and perspectives for the design of α‐carboline analogs. Various pharmacological and spectroscopy functions of the compounds belonging to this class are summarized herewith. It also discusses the synthesis of functionalized bioactive naturally obtained hetero‐annulated α‐carbolines.

We have developed an efficient and sustainable approach for the synthesis of 4,4′‐bipyrazole derivatives from spirocyclopropanyl‐pyrazolone and hydrazine under mild conditions. This methodology is catalyst‐free, operating effectively in both batch and continuous flow processes. The flow synthesis allows the production of products up to 110 mg/h which provides industrial applicability and scalability. Additionally, 4,4’‐bipyraole has been transformed into a triphenyl‐substituted pyrazole derivative.

Cyclic sulfonamides (sultams) widely distributed in pharmaceuticals due to their abundant biological activities. Currently, many pharmaceuticals with bicyclic sultam scaffold have been approved, some of them even have become first‐line medicines. In this concept, representative synthetic methodologies towards bicyclic sultams were selected and discussed. Construction of bicyclic γ‐ and δ‐sultams were the focus due to their pivotal role in medicinal chemistry. Most of the methodologies were focus on the construction of the sultam ring, including intramolecular N‐central cyclization (INC), oxidative cyclization (OC), carbanion‐mediated sulfonamide intramolecular cyclization (CSIC), transition‐metal catalyzed cyclization (TMCC) and ring closing metathesis (RCM). Name reactions such as Michael addition and Heck reaction were also applied to the construction of bicyclic sultams. In addition, this concept also discussed the enzyme‐catalytic reactions and some special reactions due to their unique properties.
