Accounts regarding the use of novel psychoactive substances continue to escalate annually. These include reports on substituted benzofurans (SBs), such as 1-(1-benzofuran-2-yl)-N-ethylpropan-2-amine (2-EAPB) and 1-(1-benzofuran-5-yl)-N-ethylpropan-2-amine (5-EAPB). Reports on the deaths and adverse consequences from the use of SBs warrant the investigation of their mechanism, possibly predicting the effects of similar compounds. Accordingly, we investigated the possible rewarding and reinforcing effects of 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB through conditioned place preference (CPP), self-administration, and locomotor sensitization tests. We also determined the possible influence of 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB administration on dopamine- and plasticity-related proteins in the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area. 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB induced CPP at different doses and were self-administered by rats. Only 5-EAPB induced locomotor sensitization in mice. 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB did not alter the expressions of dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in the nucleus accumbens, nor changed tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine transporter expressions in the ventral tegmental area. Both 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB enhanced deltaFosB, but not transcription factor cyclic AMP-response-element binding protein and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the nucleus accumbens. Hence, the potential rewarding and reinforcing effects on rodents induced by 2-EAPB and 5-EAPB may possibly be associated with alterations in other neurotransmitter systems (besides mesolimbic) and/or neuro-plastic modifications.

Synthesis of new Schiff's base Zn-complexes for photo-oxidation of methyl arenes and xylenes are reported under visible light irradiation conditions. All the synthesized new ligands and Zn-complexes are thoroughly characterized with various spectral analyses and confirmed as 1:1 ratio of Zn and ligand with distorted octahedral structure. The bandgap energies of the ligands are higher than its Zn-complexes. These synthesized new Zn(II) complexes are used for the photo-fragmentation of organic dye pollutants, photodegradation of food industrial wastewater and oxidation of methyl arenes which are converted into its respective aldehydes with moderate yields under visible light irradiation. The photooxidation reaction dependency on the intensity of the visible light was also studied. With the increase in the dosage of photocatalyst, the methyl groups are oxidized to get aldehydes and mono acid products, which are also identified from LC-MS data. Finally, [Zn(PPMHT)Cl] is with better efficiency than [Zn(PTHMT)Cl] and [Zn(MIMHPT)Cl] for oxidation of methyl arenes is reported under visible-light-driven conditions.

The synthesis of N-alkyl-1H-1,2,4-triazoles from N,N-dialkylhydrazones and nitriles via formal [3+2] cycloaddition including the C-chlorination/nucleophilic addition/cyclisation/dealkylation sequence was developed. This sequential reaction utilising the in situ generation of hydrazonoyl chloride based on the ambiphilic reactivity of hydrazones afforded a variety of multi-substituted N-alkyl-triazoles in high yields. The synthetic utility of multi-substituted triazoles was also demonstrated by further transformations.
