The results of recent work on the dye-sensitized photooxygenation of sulfides is discussed. In the case of dialkyl sulfides, the weakly bonded adduct initially formed with singlet oxygen (the persulfoxide) decays unproductively unless protonation by an acid (an alcohol or a carboxylic acid) facilitates its conversion to the sulfoxide. The effect is proportional to the strength of the acid (eg., less than 0.1 % chloroacetic acid in benzene is sufficient for maximal efficiency) and corresponds to general acid catalysis, suggesting that protonation of the persulfoxide occurs. On the other hand, with sulfides possessing an activated hydrogen in ${\alpha}$ position (eg., benzyl and allyl sulfides), hydrogen transfer becomes an efficient process in aprotic media and yields a S-hydroperoxysulfoniumm ylide, possibly arising from a conformation of the persulfoxide that is different from the one protonated in the presence of acids. Calculations on some substituted sulfides support this hypothesis. This process, which leads to C-S bond fragmentation with formation of an aldehyde, may be viewed as a general method for the preparation of aryl and heteroaryl aldehydes. In this effort, mechanistic studies offered new hints on the structure of the intermediate persulfoxide.

4, 5-Diphenyl-2-mercaptiomidazole (I) was reacted with hydraziodyl halides IIa-d togive the S-alkyl derivatives III-a-d. Cyclization of IIIa-d afforded imidazo[2, 1-b]-thiazole derivatives Vla, b and VII. Treatment of 1 with a-chloroethylacetoaccetate (IV) gave ethyl 2(4, 5-diphenyl-2-imidazolinylthio)-3-keto-butyrate (V). Compound V coupled with benzendiazonium chloride to give the corresponding phenylhydrazo compound IIId. On heating V with polyphosphoric acid, cyclization took place and 2-acetyl-5, 6-diphenyl-imidazo [2, 1-b] thiazol-3-one (VIII) was obtained. The compound VIII was condensed with aromatic aldehydes to yield the cinnamoyl derivatives 1Xa, b. The antimicrobial activities of compounds IIIa-d, V, VIa, VII were examined.

Benzylideneacetophenones are known as chalcones[1]. The chalcone has been known to be a photo-isomerizable and photo-dimerizable chromophore. The chalcone derivatives were prepared by base-catalyzed condensation of aldehydes and acetophenones, which were substituted with various alkyl chains. The synthesized chalcone was introduced into the t-BOC protected diamine through William synthesis reaction. Photocrosslinkable polyimide was prepared via one-step imidization reaction of DOCDA (5-(2,5-dioxotetrahydro furyl}-3-methyl-3-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride) and the chalcone introduced diamine using isoquinoline (5 wt%) in m-cresol. The polyimide solutions were spin-coated onto the quartz, silicone wafer and glass substrates and the obtained thin films were irradiated obliquely with linearly polarized UV light.

The new MPV-type reagent, Al-fluorodiisobutylalane (DIBAF), has been prepared and their reducing characteristics in the reduction of selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups have been examined in order to find out a new reducing system with unique applicability in organic synthesis. In general, the reagent is extremely mild, showing only reactivity toward aldehydes, ketones, and epoxides. The reagent achives a clean 1,2-reduction of enals to the corresponding allylic alcohols in a 100% purity, but shows no reactivity toward enones. The reagent also shows an excellent regioselective cleavage of substituted epoxides. In addition, DIBAF produces the thermodynamically more stable alcohol epimer in high stereoselectivity in the reduction of cyclic ketones.

Thiamine hydrochloride (VB1) has been used as an acid catalyst in organic synthesis. One pot three component Biginelli condensation of dimedone, urea/thiourea and substituted aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by 10 mol % of thiamine hydrochloride (VB1) in solvent free condition under microwave irradiation in good to excellent yields has been investigated. Utilization of microwave irradiation, simple reaction conditions, short reaction time, ease of product isolation, and purification makes this manipulation very interesting from an economic and environmental perspective.

The approximate rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of excess 1,3,2-biphenyldioxaborepin [2,2'-biphenoxyborane (BPB)] with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under the standardized conditions (tetrahydrofuran, hydride to compound being 4 : 1, room temperature) was examined in order to define the characteristics of the reagent for selective reductions and compare its reducing power with those of other substituted boranes. The results indicate that BPB is unique and the reducing power is much stronger than that of other dialkoxyboranes, such as catecholborane and di-s-butoxyborane. BPB reduces aldehydes, ketones, quinones, lactones, tertiary amides, and sulfoxides readily. Carboxylic acids, anhydrides, esters, and nitriles are also reduced slowly. However, the reactions of acid chlorides, epoxides, primary amides, nitro compounds, and disulfides with this reagent proceed only sluggishly.

A number of substituted furodiketochroman derivatives ($lll_{a-f}$) have been synthesized by fusion of aromatic aldehydes with 5-hydroxybergapten and 5-hydroxyisopimpinellin. On the other hand, when the reaction was carried out in a solvent, the corresponding bis-furoccumarin derivatives ($lV_{c-n}$) were obtained. The anticoagulant effect of compounds $lll_{a,b,d}$ and $lv_{b,c,f,g,i,k}$ was tested. They failed to demonstrate any significant effect. The effect of the tested compounds on the arterial blood pressure was studied. Compounds $lV_c$, $lll_d$, $lll_b$, $lV_b$, $lV_k$ and $lV_i$ showed lowering effects on the normal systolic blooc pressure of anaesthetized rats in a decreasing manner.

Condensation of 4-cyano-5,6-dimethyl-3-pyridazinone 1 with aromatic aldehydes gave the novel styryl derivatives 2a-c. Refluxing of compound 2a with phosphorus oxychloride furnished 3-chloropyridazine derivative 3. Compound 3 was reacted with thiourea and produced pyridazine-3(2H)thione 4. Thieno[2,3-c]- pyridazines 5a-e were achieved by cycloalkylation of compound 4 with halocompounds in methanol under reflux and in the presence of sodium methoxide. Also, refluxing of compound 4 with N-substituted chloroacetamide in the presence of potassium carbonate afforded thienopyridazines 6a-e. Cyclization of compound 6 with some electrophilic reagents as carbon disulfide and triethyl orthoformate furnished the novel pyrimido[4',5':4,5]thieno[2,3-c]pyridazines 12 and 13a-c, respectively. Diazotisation of compound 6 with sodium nitrite in acetic acid produced the pyridazino[4',3':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,2,3]triazines 14a-c. Ternary condensation of compound 1, aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile in ethanol containing piperidine under reflux afforded the novel phthalazines 16a-c. Compound 3 was subjected to some nucleophilic substitution reactions with amines and sodium azide and formed the aminopyridazines 17a, b and tetrazolo[1,5-b]-pyridazine 19, respectively. The structures of the synthesized compounds were established by elemental and spectral analyses.

The reaction of 6-chloro-3-methoxycarbonylmethylene-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline(5) or 3-methoxycarbonylmethylene-6-nitro-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline(6) with hydrazine hydrate gave 3-hydrazinocarbonylmethylene-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines(7, 8). The reaction of compound 7 or 8 with substituted benzaldehydes or heteroaromatic aldehydes afforded quinoxalines(9-14). Compounds showed the tautomerism between the enamine and methylene imine forms, and between the enamine, methylene imine and enaminol forms in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. The tautomer ratios were determined by the 1H NMR.

The reaction of 3-(1-ethoxycarbonyl)ethyl-1,2-dihydro-2-oxoquinoxaline (8) with hydrazine hydrate gave 3-(1-hydrazinocarbonyl)ethyl-2-hydroxyquinoxaline (9). The reaction of compound 9 with substituted benzaldehydes and heteroaryl aldehydes afforded 2-hydroxyquinoxalines (10-12), respectively. The reaction of compound 9 with alkyl (ethoxymethylene)cyanoacetates and ethoxymethylenemalononitrile resulted in the intramolecular cyclization to give the 5-amino-1-[2-(3-hydroxyquinoxalin-2-yl)propanoyl]-pyrazoles (13), respectively. Compounds 10-13 showed the tautomerism between the lactam and lactim forms in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. The tautomer ratios were determined by the $^1H$ NMR. The herbicidal and fungicidal activities of the synthesized compounds were investigated.
