Influence of humic substances on growth performance and blood serum parameters in fattening turkeys.

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of humic substances on performance and selected blood biochemical parameters in turkeys. A total of twenty 6-week-old turkey hybrids (Big 6) were divided into two groups. The first group of turkeys was fed the basal diet without any supplementation of humic substances as a control group.

Insight into the Metal-Free Reduction of Isocyanates to N-Methyl Anilines at Room Temperature.

A simple and sustainable protocol has been developed to reduce isocyanates to the N-methyl anilines under metal-free conditions. The reaction proceeds with BF ⋅ OEt as a catalyst and ammonia borane as a hydrogen source in THF at room temperature, leading to the formation of a wide range of substituted aniline derivatives. Control experiments and deuterium labeling studies were performed to understand the mechanism of the present procedure.

Metal-free C-H Borylation and Hydroboration of Indoles.

The C-H borylation and hydroboration reactions have emerged as promising synthetic tools to construct organoboron compounds. Organoboron compounds of N-heterocycles, particularly indole derivatives, have found widespread application in a variety of fields. As a result, considerable advancement in the area of C-H borylation and hydroboration reactions of indoles was observed in the last few decades.

A Lewis Acid-Base Pair Catalyzed Dearomative Transformation of Unprotected Indoles via B-H Bond Activation.

A sustainable and metal-free protocol has been described for the reduction of unprotected indoles. The catalytic system consists of B(C F ) and THF as a Lewis acid-base pair that can activate the B-H bond of pincolborane (HBpin). The catalytic system encompasses a broad substrate scope.

Dual Role of TiO(acac) as a Reagent and an Activator/Catalyst: A Study on the Solvent Dependent Product Formation.

The dual operation of a chemical species in synthetic chemistry is an intriguing and relatively unexplored phenomenon. The application of such a species is expected to reduce the use of multiple reaction partners and catalysts/activators. Herein, we report a simple and easy-to-use protocol for the twin application of TiO(acac) , as a reagent and an activator to synthesize β-enamino ketones with amines in acetonitrile.
