The versatility and utility of vinyl chalcogenides in organic synthesis is well documented through the publication of a number of review articles1 and books.2 The development of new methods for the preparation and applicability of vinyl sulfides,3a-c sulfones,3d and tellurides4 was recently revised. * Corresponding author.

We describe herein the use of glycerol as the solvent in the copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of diaryl diselenides with arylboronic acids using CuI and DMSO as additive. This cross-coupling reaction was performed with diaryl diselenides and arylboronic acids bearing electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups, affording the corresponding diaryl selenides in good to excellent yields. The glycerol–CuI mixture can be directly reused for further cross-coupling reactions.

Essential oil (EO) of the leaves of Eugenia uniflora L. (Brazilian cherry tree) was evaluated for its antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal properties. The acute toxicity of the EO administered by oral route was also evaluated in mice. The EO exhibited antioxidant activity in the DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assays and reduced lipid peroxidation in the kidney of mice. The EO also showed antimicrobial activity against two important pathogenic bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes, and against two fungi of the Candida species, C. lipolytica and C. guilliermondii. Acute administration of the EO by the oral route did not cause lethality or toxicological effects in mice. These findings suggest that the EO of the leaves of E. uniflora may have the potential for use in the pharmaceutical industry.

A general, clean and easy method for the conjugated addition of thiols to citral promoted by KF/Al2O3 under solvent-free or using glycerin as recyclable solvent at room temperature is described. It was found that the solvent-free protocol is applicable to the direct reaction of thiophenol with the essential oil of lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus) to afford directly 3,7-dimethyl-3-(phenylthio)oct-6-enal, a potential bactericide agent. The method was extended to other electron-poor alkenes with excellent results. For the solvent-free protocol, the use of microwave irradiation facilitated the procedure and accelerates the reaction. The catalytic system and glycerin can be reused up to three times without previous treatment with comparable activity.

A simple green and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of (−)-isopulegol from (+)-citronellal in the presence of a solid supported catalyst (SiO2/ZnCl2), under solvent-free conditions and MW irradiation. It was also found that the same technology is applicable to the direct preparation of (−)-isopulegol from the essential oil of citronella (Cymbopogon nardus, growing in southern Brazil) in excellent yield.

Abstract A green and efficient method for the synthesis of octahydroacridine (OHA) has been developed by a simple one-pot hetero-Diels–Alder reaction starting from (+)-citronellal and N -arylamines in the presence of a solid supported catalyst (SiO 2 /ZnCl 2 ), under MW irradiation and without any solvent. The method was used in the direct preparation of OHA from citronella oil in good yield.

A green and efficient procedure was developed for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes using ammonium niobium oxalate (ANO) NH4[NbO(C2O4)2(H2O)x]·nH2O as the catalyst and water or glycerol as the solvent. Products were obtained in good to excellent yields under conventional heating (water, 50 °C) or under sonication (glycerol, 110 °C). In the reaction in water, the catalyst was easily reused for further reactions without loss of activity.

We described herein the use of imidazolium ionic liquids [bmim]PF6 and [bmim]BF4 in the selective, metal and catalyst-free synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl selenides by electrophilic substitution in arylboron reagents with arylselenium halides (Cl and Br) at room temperature. This is a general substitution reaction and it was performed with arylboronic acids or potassium aryltrifluoroborates bearing electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups, affording the corresponding diaryl selenides in good to excellent yields. The ionic liquid [bmim][PF6] was easily recovered and utilized for further substitution reactions.

Ultrasonic (US) irradiation was successfully used as an alternative energy source to prepare 3-selanylindoles through the direct selanylation of indoles with diorganyl diselenides using CuI (20 mol%) as catalyst and DMSO as the solvent. By using this US-promoted reaction, eleven 3-organylselanylindoles were prepared selectively and in good yields. A comparative study between the reactions under conventional heating, microwave and ultrasound irradiations was performed, and it was observed advantage in using US over the other heating systems.

Organocatalytic enamine-azide [3 + 2] cycloadditions between β-keto sulfones and aryl azides can be performed at room temperature in good to excellent yields of products in the presence of catalytic amounts of pyrrolidine (5 mol %). The proposed organocatalytic methodology was found to be applicable to β-keto arylsulfones containing a range of substituents. A wide variety of aryl azides also work. Basically, this constitutes a remarkably efficient protocol for the synthesis of novel 1,2,3-triazole compounds.
