Tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and copper tetraphenylporphyrin (CuTPP) were synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, 1HNMR and 13CNMR. The CuTPP nanoparticles were synthesized by sonication and mixed solvent methods. These nanoparticles were characterized by AFM and SEM images and UV-Vis spectra. The catalytic activity of nanoparticles was investigated by oxidation of o-choloro and o-hydroxy benzyl alcohols in presence of molecular oxygen and isobutyraldehyde. The yields of oxidation of o-hydroxy benzyl alcohol by the two catalysts, CuTPP NPs and CuTPP, are 96.5% and ~ 2%, respectively. It is very obvious that the oxidation at the presence of CuTPP NPs catalyst is very high but selectivity for both reactants is 100%.?

A rapid one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of azo dyes via ?sequential diazotization–diazo coupling of aromatic amines with coupling agents at room ?temperature in the presence of BF3.SiO2 as acidic catalyst. The obtained aryl diazonium salts bearing silica supported boron tri-flouride counter ion? was sufficiently stable to be kept at room ?temperature in the dry state.?

A regioselective synthesis of ethyl 6-aryl-3-propylpyridazine-4-carboxylates by one-pot three-component reaction of ethyl butyrylacetate with various arylglyoxals in the presence of hydrazine hydrate at room temperature in water was described.

Active methylene compounds are regioselectively dialkylated by variety of alkyl halides using cesium carbonate in quantitative yield. The reaction yielded exclusively dialkylated products with no intermediate monoalkyaltion or mixture of products.

A bronsted acid-surfactant catalysed and simple, mild, metal catalyst free and chemo-selective method has been developed for synthesis of 1, 3, 5-triaryl benzenes from aryl methyl ketones. The advantages of this protocol subsume green and sustainable reaction medium, mild reaction conditions, easy product recovery and its good yields.

A series of new 2-arylquinoxaline derivatives have been synthesized in high yield by condensation of aryl-1,2-diamines with arylglyoxals in DMF at 50-120 oC.
