Benzonitrile is a nitrile that is hydrogen cyanide in which the hydrogen has been replaced by a phenyl group. It is a member of benzenes and a nitrile.
Synthesis of Benzonitrile 4
A variety of functional groups (e.g., alkoxy, phenyl, methylthio, benzyloxy, trifluoromethyl, or chloro) were compatible with the conditions used. Arylsilanes bearing substituents at the para-, meta-, and ortho-positions were all converted to the corresponding benzonitriles (2b, 2h, and 2i, respectively) in good yields.
Benzyl alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild, pleasant, aromatic odor.
Benzyl alcohol 1a was reacted with 1.25 equivalents of phenylphosphonyl dichloride (PPDC; PhP(O)Cl2) in the presence of triethylamine (Et3N) to afford a mixture of mono- and bis-phosphates. The monosubstituted product was reacted directly with p-cresol without purification to afford the desired phenylphosphonate 2a.

A chemical used in flavorings and in some dyes, perfumes, and medicines. It is found in essential oils made from almonds and peach pits and in other foods.
Peptoid-synthesis-inspired modular assembly of azaxylylene precursors and their cyclizations. [a] Acetal hydrolysis step is required only in the a (i.e. benzaldehyde) series. [b] Major diastereomer is shown, the minor hydroxy epimer (not shown) is denoted with a prime, 16’a etc. Bn=benzyl, DIPEA=diisopropylethylamine, PTS=pyridinium para-tolue-nesulfonate.

Ulapualide A is an extraordinary bioactive tris-oxazole based macrolide which was isolated from the egg masses of the marine sponge Hexabranchus sanguineus and exhibits potent antifungal activity with inhibition of leukaemia cell proliferation.
Structure of myxothiazole Z, calyculin A, and ulapualide A.
Porphyrin is a group of organic heterocyclic compounds that are comprised of four modified pyrrole subunits connected via methine bridges and form an aromatic macrocyclic structure, which has one or more side chains attached. Many porphyrins are naturally occurring pigments. Porphyrins with metal ions bound to the porphin ring can be cofactors for biological processes, such as oxygen transport by hemes and photosynthesis by chlorophyll.
Synthetic strategy to prepare flavonoid–porphyrin conjugates at β-position.
Synthetic strategy to prepare flavonoid–porphyrin conjugates at meso-position.
Representative normalized absorption (solid) and fluorescence spectra (dotted) (kexc = 550 nm, OD = 0.02) of flavonoid–porphyrin conjugate 17 in DMF.
Plot of the singlet oxygen quantum yield (Ø△) of the flavonoid–porphyrin conjugates versus their fluorescence quantum yield (Øfl) in DMF. The interception of the dotted lines represents the value of the standard (TPP).
Ceric Ammonium Nitrate is used as an efficient catalyst for ring opening of epoxides in the presence of water, thiols and acetic acid.
The total synthesis of ()-quinagolide was accomplished via a ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN)-mediated regioselective azidoalkoxylation route of enol ethers.
