Synthesis of isoindoles by one-electron reductions of dibenzo[1,4]diazocines

A synthetic protocol to isoindoles is reported through one-electron reductions of dibenzo[1,4]diazocines. The utility of the approach has been demonstrated through the synthesis of six novel isoindole derivatives. Photophysical measurements revealed emissions between 440 and 460 nm. A reaction mechanism, supported by experimental results and quantum chemical calculations, is postulated.

Facile transformation of N,N-dimethylhydrazones and tosylhydrazones to ketones with dimethylsulfate and potassium carbonate

N,N-Dimethylhydrazones and tosylhydrazones can be converted to their ketones in good to excellent yields with dimethylsulfate and K2CO3.
