- domino reaction of aldehydes 1, 2-aminopyridines (2-APs) 3 and terminal alkynes 2, catalyzed by CuI and co-catalyzed by the NaHSO4·SiO2 system (Scheme 1). The reaction performed with CuI alone gave a moderate yield of the product (only 45%) whereas NaHSO4·SiO2 alone was unable to complete the reaction
- reaction to the product of 4-bromo-substituted nitrostyrylisoxazole 48a (Scheme 18). The attractive feature was successful substitution of the bromo atom with terminal alkynes. Different alkynes applied gave a good yield of up to 81%. This reaction provided a direct and efficient method to produce highly

The alkyl carboxylic acids is for the first time being used as the alkyl azide precursors in the form of alkyl diacyl peroxides. This method avoids the necessity to handle organic azides, as they are generated in situ
