TL;DR: In this article, an efficient catalytic method for α-trifluoromethylthiolation of aldehydes has been developed, using an easily accessible reagent and commercially available starting materials.
Abstract: An efficient catalytic method for α-trifluoromethylthiolation of aldehydes has been developed. The reaction occurred by using an easily accessible reagent and commercially available starting materials. The convenient manipulation and broad functional group tolerance allow the potential of this new methodology to be widely applied in organic synthesis as well as in the industrial, pharmaceutical and agrochemical fields.

TL;DR: In this article, 1,2-oxazol derivatives were prepared by a highly regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides and α,β-acetylenical dehydes in good yields.

TL;DR: A plausible mechanism of the cyclization step of the quinazolines class synthesized by the formic acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 3-(2-aminoalkyl)-2-(phenylamino)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones 1 in high yields is proposed.
Abstract: Bioactive tricyclic quinazolines class of 3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrimido[2,1-b]quinazolin-6(2H)-ones I and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(1H)-ones II were synthesized by the formic acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 3-(2-aminoalkyl)-2-(phenylamino)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones 1 in high yields. A plausible mechanism of the cyclization step is proposed.

TL;DR: A novel protocol to synthesize tert- butyl esters from benzyl cyanides and tert-butyl hydroperoxide has been successfully achieved and proceeded smoothly in one pot under the metal-free condition.
Abstract: A novel protocol to synthesize tert-butyl esters from benzyl cyanides and tert-butyl hydroperoxide has been successfully achieved. In the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide, Csp3–H bond oxidation, C–CN bond cleavage and C–O bond formation proceeded smoothly in one pot under the metal-free condition.

Abstract: 1,2-Oxazol derivatives 3 were prepared by a highly regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides and α,β-acetylenicaldehydes 1 in good yields. Reactive nitrile oxides were generated in situ from stable chloro-oxime reagents 2 and triethyl amine. The cycloaddition reaction showed broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility.
