A series of mono and di-N-2,3-epoxypropyl N-phenylhydrazones have been prepared on a large scale by reaction of the corresponding N-phenylhydrazones of 9-ethyl-3-carbazolecarbaldehyde, 9-ethyl-3,6-carbazoledicarbaldehyde, 4-dimethyl-amino-, 4-diethylamino-, 4-benzylethylamino-, 4-(diphenylamino)-, 4-(4,4-4'-dimethyl-diphenylamino)-, 4-(4-formyldiphenylamino)- and 4-(4-formyl-4'-methyldiphenyl-a...

The first catalytic asymmetric Fischer indolization is reported. In the presence of a 5 mol % loading of a novel spirocyclic chiral phosphoric acid, 4-substituted cyclohexanone-derived phenylhydrazones undergo a highly enantioselective indolization. Efficient catalyst turnover was achieved by the addition of a weakly acidic cation exchange resin, which removes the generated ammonia. The reactio...

o-Xylylenebis (triphenylphosphonium peroxymonosulfate) (1) was easily prepared from an aqueous solution of oxone and o-xylylenebis- (triphenylphosphonium bromide). This Compound (1) is a useful and selective reagent for conversion of oximes, semicarbazones and phenylhydrazones to the corresponding carbonyl compounds. The reaction was carried out under solvent-free conditions and in the presence...

BACKGROUND A new and efficient method have been developed for the synthesis of different indole derivatives from various ketones, having at least one hydrogen atom attached to each of their α-carbon atoms, and hydrazines in solvent-free conditions, using marine sponge/H3PO4 as a naturally occurring chiral catalyst. OBJECTIVES This study recommended the use of marine sponge/H3PO4 as a naturall...
