β-Nicotyrine, a minor tobacco alkaloid, can be rapidly prepared in good yield from the dehydrogenation of S-(-)-nicotine over MnO2 with microwave irradiation. This method is superior to dehydrogenation reactions that utilize S-(-)-nicotine and MnO2 in a variety of solvents under reflux.

We have developed a C2-selective mono-silylation of a variety of pyridines using a Rh-Al complex. Both the site- and mono-selectivity are controlledviathe pyridine coordination to the Lewis-acidic Al center prior to the activation of the pyridine C(2)-H bond at the proximal Rh center. A reaction mechanism is proposed based on several mechanistic studies, including the isolation of a (2-pyridyl)silylrhodium intermediate.
Copper catalysed Gomberg-Bachmann-Hey reactions of arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates and heteroarenediazonium o-benzenedisulfonimides. Synthetic and mechanistic aspects

Gomberg-Bachmann-Hey reactions were carried out in the presence of copper as a catalyst and gave rise to biaryls or heterobiaryls in good yields and in mild reaction conditions. A computational study of some key points of the reaction was performed. The results are coherent with the experimental data and confirm some aspects of the mechanism. The reaction free energies for the reduction in benzene by CuI of a set of 40 (hetero)arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates were calculated. Both the experiments and the calculations showed that in the coupling with substituted solvents (toluene, bromobenzene, nitrobenzene and anisole) the binding to the ortho position was always favoured.
