The oxidative S–S coupling of thiol to disulfide is an imperative chemical transformation in the domain of biological processes and also finds numerous chemical applications. The CeO2 and ZnO are significant catalysts for oxidation of thiol to disulfide and N-acetylation of amines respectively. Dithiobis(phenylene)bis(benzyldeneimine) moiety containing N-acetyl and disulfide functional groups is a potential antimicrobial agent with Leishmanicidal and antihyperlipidemic activities. Herein, we report a synchronized catalytic application of Ce doped ZnO (Ce-ZnO) and CeO2-Ce-ZnO composites for selective synthesis of Dithiobis(phenylene)bis(benzyldeneimine) from o-amino thiol. The Ce-ZnO samples were synthesized by simple co precipitation method by calcination of hydroxide precursors at 400 °C to get 0–10% Ce-ZnO nanocrystallites. The formation of CeO2-Ce-ZnO composite material was observed beyond 1.5% Ce concentration. The synthesized materials were well characterized by IR, XRD, DRS spectroscopy and SEM-EDS analysis. The application of Ce doped ZnO as an efficient catalyst towards the selective N-acetylation and concurrent S-oxidation of o-amino thiol to afford Dithiobis(phenylene)bis(benzyldeneimine) at ambient temperature in acetonitrile was deliberated. Among all screened catalysts, the maximum selectivity was found for 7.5% Ce-ZnO as CeO2-Ce-ZnO composite catalyst. Lewis acidic property of catalyst supported probable mechanism for achieved dual transformations. Also, the 7.5% Ce-ZnO catalyst has demonstrated a versatile S–S coupling ability for variety of thiol substrates with excellent stability.

Manganese(II) chloride-catalyzed acetylation of alcohols, phenols thiols and amines with acetic anhydride is reported. This method is environment-friendly and economically viable as it involves inexpensive, relatively benign catalyst, mild reaction condition, and simple workup. Acetylation is performed under the solvent-free condition at ambient temperature and acetylated products obtained in good to excellent yields. Primary, secondary heterocyclic amines, and phenols with various functional groups are smoothly acetylated in good yields. This method exhibits exquisite chemoselectivity, the amino group is preferentially acetylated in the presence of a hydroxyl/thiol group.

Abstract: Citric acid-coated magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4–CA NPs) were successfully prepared and characterized. This magnetic nanocatalyst was employed as an efficient, recyclable, and environmentally benign heterogeneous catalyst for the transamidation of carboxamides, phthalimide, urea and thiourea with amines. Several derivatives of formylated and transamidated products were synthesized in good to excellent yields in the presence of this catalytic system. And, the catalyst could be easily separated from the reaction mixture using an external magnet and can be reused six times without any significant loss in its catalytic activity.
