Flavin catalysts perform the first organocatalytic Dakin oxidation of electron-rich arylaldehydes to phenols under mild, basic conditions. Catechols are readily prepared, and the oxidation of 2-hydroxyacetophenone was achieved. Aerobic oxidation is displayed in the presence of Zn(0) as a reducing

Two new solid-phase syntheses of substituted pyrazoles are described. The first includes supporting an o-hydroxyacetophenone on Merrifield resin, Vilsmeier-Haack formylation on the methyl group and cyclization with a substituted hydrazine to afford a pyrazole ring with two diversity centers. The

The spectral studies and structure of a ternary complex of copper(II) with 2-hydroxyacetophenone 3-hexamethyliminylthiosemicarbazonate (L(2-)) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) are reported. The thiosemicarbazone binds to the metal as a dianionic ONS-donor (L(2-)) ligand, and forms a complex of the stoichiometry [CuLphen].

The o-Hydroxy acetophenone [N-(3-hydroxy-2-naphthoyl)] hydrazone (H(2)o-HAHNH) has been prepared and its structure is confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. It has been used to produce diverse complexes with Co(II), Cd(II), Hg(II) and U(VI)O(2) ions. The
