A facile and effective method has been developed for the synthesis of a novel series of benzofuran derivatives via N-acylation, O-alkylation and intramolecular condensation reactions, starting from readily available substituted o-hydroxy aryl ketone, and chloroacetyl arylamides. This metal-free transition process is characterized by mild reaction conditions, atom economy, short reaction time and a high yield with a decreased amount of by-products.

Boron trifluoride etherate on alumina catalyses the condensation of orcinol and monomethyl orcinol with cyclic allylic alcohols : in contrast to parallel reactions with boron trifluoride etherate in solution the products obtained undergo intramolecular cyclisations.

Acid and base catalyzed intramolecular cyclizations of N-benzoylthioureidoacetal, contain-ing four functional groups adjacent to thiourea such as benzocarbamoyl, acetal, thioure and amide, were investigated. The condensation reaction of N-benzoyl thiocarbamoylgly-cine amide in the presence of 10% aqueous NaOH provided 1-(2,2-dimethoxy)ethyl-imi- dazolidine-2-thione exclusively. In the presence of pyridine, it was transformed to 2- thiohydantoin. N-Benzoyl thiocarbamoyl glycine amide was completely transformed to an iminothiazolidine exclusively in the presence of Lewis acid such as borontrifluoride ether-ate or trimethylsilyl iodide. 1-(2,2-Dimethoxy)ethyl-imidazolidine-2-thione was transformed to imidazole[2,1-b]thiazole and pyrazino[5,1-a]imidazole in the presence of $BF_3$.$ET_2$O and formic acid, respectively.

Facile and efficient syntheses of terpenic perfumeries cis-jasmone, dihydrojasmone, and tetrahydrojasmone have been investigated. Cis-jasmone was synthesized by successive metallation followed by alkylation of acetone N,N-dimethylhydrazone with (Z)-2-penten-1-yl tosylate (or 2-pentyn-1-yl tosylate) and propylene oxide in one flask to give a ketonic alcohol, which was oxidized to the corresponding diketone, followed by base-catalyzed intramolecular aldol condensation to give a regioselective cyclization product. Dihydrojasmone and tetrahydrojasmone could be conveniently obtained from 2-octanone. The dimethylhydrazone of the ketone was lithiated with butyllithium and reacted with propylene oxide to give a ketonic alcohol, which was oxidized to a diketone, followed by base-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization to afford dihydrojasmone. Tetrahydrojasmone was prepared by converting the ketonic alcohol into corresponding iodoketone, followed by base-catalyzed intramolecular cycloalkylation to furnish an odoriferous product.

Large absorption band shift has been observed for the azo-dye (disperse red-13, DR-13) attached on the surface of silica spheres. Urethane linkage has been utilized to form covalent bond between azo-dye (-OH) and 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane (ICPTES, -N=C=O). The synthesized ICPTES-DR-13 (ICPDR) molecules were attached to the silica spheres by the hydrolysis and condensation reaction. Although the absorption peak of DR-13 in methanol is at 510 nm, the absorption peak of the ICPDR-silica spheres shifts to 788 nm. The large absorption peak shift is due to the formation of intramolecular charge-transfer band with large aggregated ICPDR.

Resorcinol formaldehyde resins are synthesized by polycondensation of resorcinol with formal-dehyde and have various structures by the condensation type. The influence of polycondensation type on the stability and structure of the resorcinol formaldehyde resin was studied by molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics. The resins formed by 2,6-polycondensation and 4,6-polycondensationwith head-to-tail orientations have structures of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between 1-hydroxyl groups and between outer hydroxyl groups of the adjacent resorcinols, respectively. The resin formed by 2,6-polycon-densation with head-to-head orientation has a structure that inner hydroxyl groups cluster in the center of the molecule. Energetical stability of the resin is affected by both the intramolecular hydrogen bonds and the steric' hindrance by phenyl group.

The authors report the synthesis and radical ring-crossover polymerization of macrocycles with radically exchangeable dynamic covalent bonds. The macrocyclic compounds with alkoxyamine units were designed and synthesized by condensation from alkoxyamine-based diol and the corresponding acid chlorides in the presence of pyridine under high-dilution condition. The macrocycles can thermally polymerize by intermolecular radical crossover reaction. Furthermore, the poly(alkoxyamine)s depolymerized to the monomers principally by the intramolecular radical exchange process under high-dilution conditions.

Three carbazole chromophores featuring dicyano, cyano, ethyl acetate and dimethyl acetate groups as an acceptor moiety with a ${\pi}$-conjugated spacer and $N$-methyl dibenzo[$b$]pyrole as donor were synthesized by Knovenagel condensation and characterized by IR, $^1HNMR$, $^{13}CNMR$, UV-vis, fluorescence spectroscopy, electrochemistry and theoretical B3LYP/6-$311G^*$ level whilst NLO properties and spectroscopic quantities were calculated. Calculations showed remarkable trend with HOMO located on the donor moiety and LUMO on the acceptors dicyano methylene, cyano, ethyl acetate methylene and dimethyl acetate methylene. In agreement with the calculations, solvatochromic, behavior intramolecular charge transfer band was observed in the visible region.

Coumarins are ubiquitous in plant kingdom and have been used as antitumor, antifungals, anticoagulants, insecticides. Chalcones are also widespread in plant kingdom and have been known to possess diverse biological activities; antibacterial, antifungal, antitumor and anti-inflammatory, etc. As they are considered as important natural products, numerous synthetic approaches have been reported up to the present. We devise a new selective method of preparing dihydrocoumarins and chalcones from aryl cinnamates by the selection of reagents. Dihydrocoumarin derivatives were prepared selectively by using intramolecular cyclization catalyzed by p-toluene sulfonic acid. Also, chalcones were prepared by Fries-rearrangement catalyzed by $TiCl_4$. This method can be used for preparing various coumarin & chalcone compounds.
