ketones. Primary alcohol with different functional groups and various heteroaromatic alcohols are well tolerated. The present catalyst system was efficiently applied to gram scale synthesis and also the green chemistry metrics of the reaction were calculated. The present protocol was also extended successfully for the synthesis of biologically important quinoline moieties. Finally, various control
a reusable catalyst for C-/N-alkylation of alcohols with higher reaction efficiency and selectivity compared to individual components via its flexible binding sites, diverse hydrogen bond donor-acceptor fragments, rigidity, variable coordination mode, and cooperativity.
provides a safe, green and economical method for oxidation of a range of molecules varying in complexity and drug derivatives, demonstrating its potential application in organic synthesis and the pharmaceutical industry. Reaction outcomes and mechanistic studies revealed the key role of the in situ Ni(II)-dioxygen species for the subsequent oxidation of C(sp3)–H bonds, and short-lived reactive intermediates
