RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Growing concerns about sustainability have driven the search for eco-friendly pest management solutions. Combining natural and synthetic compounds within controlled release systems is a promising strategy. This study investigated the co-encapsulation of the natural compound citral (Cit) and the synthetic antifungal cyproconazole (CPZ) using two water-based nanocarriers: solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs). RESULTS: Both CSNPs and SLNs loaded with Cit + CPZ displayed superior antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea compared to free compounds. Notably, CSNPs with a 2:1 Cit:CPZ ratio exhibited the highest efficacy, achieving a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC100) of < 1.56 µg mL-1, lower than the 12.5 µg mL-1 of non-encapsulated compounds. This formulation significantly reduced the required synthetic CPZ while maintaining efficacy, highlighting its potential for environmentally friendly pest control. CONCLUSION: The successful co-encapsulation of Cit + CPZ within CSNPs, particularly at a 2:1 ratio, demonstrates a promising approach for developing effective and sustainable antifungal formulations against B. cinerea. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.
RESUMO
Aqueous Mizoroki-Heck coupling reactions under microwave irradiation (MW) were carried out with a colloidal Pd nanocatalyst stabilized with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). Many stilbenes and novel heterostilbenes were achieved in good to excellent yields starting from aryl bromides and different olefins. The reaction was carried out in a short reaction time and with low catalyst loading, leading to high turnover frequency (TOFs of the order of 100 h-1). The advantages like operational simplicity, high robustness, efficiency and turnover frequency, the utilization of aqueous media and simple product work-up make this protocol a great option for stilbene syntheses by Mizoroki-Heck reaction.
RESUMO
A versatile and efficient approach for the synthesis of new biphenyl-based arsine ligands, by a Pd-catalyzed arsination to introduce the -AsPh(2) moiety, and then a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling for biaryl construction is reported. By Pd-catalyzed arsination with n-Bu(3)SnAsPh(2) (1), (2-bromophenyl)diphenylarsine (2, 83%) was obtained. The Suzuki-Miyaura reaction between the bromoarsine 2 and aryl boronic acids bearing different substituents provided biarylarsine ligands (80-99%). The efficiency of catalysts derived from the new biarylarsine ligands was evaluated in the Pd-catalyzed arsination with perfluoroalkyl iodides (R(f)I). Outstanding activities of catalysts derived from Pd/methoxybiarylarsine ligands were found in this coupling reaction affording perfluoroalkyl arsines in very good yields (57-100%).
RESUMO
Intramolecular N-arylation of pyrrole and indole carboxamides and carboxylates linked with a pendant haloarene by Cu-catalyzed reactions to synthesize pyrrole and indole quinoxalinone and oxazinone derivatives is reported. The ring closure reactions were carried out by conventional heating and MW irradiation. The use of conventional heating affords moderate to good yields of the quinoxalinone and oxazinone derivatives (34-72%), while by using MW heating the best results are obtained (41-99%).
RESUMO
The synthesis of a series of substituted 9H-carbazoles by the photostimulated S(RN)1 substitution reaction with diarylamines as starting substrate was performed. The diarylamines were obtained by two approaches, the Pd-catalyzed reactions (Buchwald-Hartwig) or Cu-catalyzed reactions of 2-haloanilines with aryl halides, or 2-bromoiodobenzene with anilines, with moderate to very good isolated yields (45-89%). Through an intramolecular C-C bond formation of diarylamines by the S(RN)1 mechanism, carbazoles were achieved. These reactions proceeded synthetically in very good to excellent yields (81-99%) in liquid ammonia and DMSO. The reaction of N-(2-bromophenyl)-2-phenylbenzenamine gave 1-phenyl-9H-carbazole (38%) and the isomer 9H-tribenz[b,d,f]azepine (58%). By using this methodology, 9H-carbazoles, substituted 9H-carbazoles, benzocarbazoles, and even 3,3'-bi(9H-carbazole) were obtained by a double S(RN)1 reaction with benzidine.

[reaction: see text] The reaction of different ArCl with the Me(2)Sn(2)(-) dianion in liquid ammonia under irradiation afforded Ar(2)SnMe(2) in good yields (68-85%). The results obtained clearly indicate that the reaction proceeded through an S(RN)1 reaction. As a synthetic application of these Ar(2)SnMe(2), the homocoupling is described in the presence of Cu(NO(3))(2).2.5H(2)O to afford the biaryls. These reactions proceeded almost quantitatively.
RESUMO
[reaction: see text] The reaction of Ph(3)As and Ph(3)Sb with Na metal in liquid ammonia gives Ph(2)M(-) ions (M = As, Sb) that react with n-Bu(3)SnCl to afford n-Bu(3)Sn-MPh(2) (1). The ammonia was allowed to evaporate, and toluene was added. The Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of these stannanes with aryl iodides afford functionalized triaryl-arsanes and triaryl-stibanes in high yields in a one-pot procedure (80-99%). The use of the commercially available, air-stable, and inexpensive Ph(3)M as the initial reagent and the one-pot process make this method a useful approach. This is the first report on the synthesis of 1 and the exploration of its chemistry.
