Heterogeneous Catalysts for the One-Pot Synthesis of Chemicals and Fine Chemicals

Bromination is one of the most important transformations in organic synthesis and can be carried out using bromine and many other bromo compounds. Use of molecular bromine in organic synthesis is well-known. However, due to the hazardous nature of bromine, enormous growth has been witnessed in the past several decades for the development of solid bromine carriers. This review outlines the use of bromine and different bromo-organic compounds in organic synthesis. The applications of bromine, a total of 107 bromo-organic compounds, 11 other brominating agents, and a few natural bromine sources were incorporated. The scope of these reagents for various organic transformations such as bromination, cohalogenation, oxidation, cyclization, ring-opening reactions, substitution, rearrangement, hydrolysis, catalysis, etc. has been described briefly to highlight important aspects of the bromo-organic compounds in organic synthesis.

Various biologically important quinoxaline derivatives were efficiently synthesized in excellent yields using inexpensive, nontoxic, and readily available bench top chemical, iodine in catalytic amount (10 mol %). Besides this, a systematic study was carried out to evaluate parameters such as solvent and catalyst loading. Several aromatic as well as aliphatic 1,2-diketones and aromatic 1,2-diamines, such as substituted phenylene diamines, tetra amines were further subjected to condensation using catalytic amounts of iodine to afford the products in excellent yield.
