Seminar “Existence, asymptotics and Lyapunov's stability of solutions of periodic parabolic boundary-value problems for Tikhonov-type systems”
We consider a periodic parabolic singularly perturbed boundary value problem for the Tikhonov system: a singularly perturbed system with fast and slow equations. An asymptotic approximation of the solution to the problem is constructed, conditions for the existence of a solution and its asymptotic stability according to Lyapunov are obtained for these solutions as solutions to the corresponding initial-boundary value problems for this system, both in the case of various types of quasi-monotonicity and in the case of its violation.

Seminar “German and Russian Neo-Kantianism”
In the modern rethinking of neo-Kantian history and ideas, the Russian version of neo-Kantianism has a special, but still unclearly defined place and not realized in all its significance. Previous, traditional techniques and classifications of Russian neo-Kantianism can no longer be adequately used when analyzing this phenomenon on Russian soil: the data accumulated in the course of historical and philosophical research require special study and the creation of new explanatory models. This unique phenomenon - Russian neo-Kantianism, once nurtured and cherished by neo-Kantian scholars - will, over time, make it possible to rethink the ideological role in the modern world of both neo-Kantianism in general and, first of all, its Marburg school as an institutionally and theoretically more “strict” branch neo-Kantian movement.

Seminar “Nonpotential dynamical systems and neural network technologies”
A finite additive measure will be constructed on a separable Hilbert space, invariant with respect to a shift to any vector. Invariance will allow us to construct smoothed functions differentiable along any coordinate direction, embedded in quadratically integrable functions, as well as tightly defined Laplace operator and Hamiltonian of an infinite-dimensional quantum oscillator. By analogy with the finite-dimensional case (Yu.N.Orlov, V.Zh.Sakbaev, D.V.Zavadsky), an approximation of the evolution of a quantum oscillator will be proved by averaging random shifts in the coordinate and pulse representations.

Seminar “Modifications of the Biginelli reaction for the synthesis of various nitrogen-containing heterocycles”
This presentation is dedicated to the modification of the Biginelli reaction for the synthesis of trisubstituted imidazoles from readily available acyclic N, N-bis-nucleophiles, 2-oxoaldehydes and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. Most of the synthesized products were successfully used in the subsequent photocyclization reaction to form structurally interesting polycyclic molecules. The replacement of N, N-bis-nucleophiles to ketenaminals allowed to carry out a similar process in a chemoselective manner to obtain a diverse library of fused polyheterocycles including pyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazoles, pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazoles and imidazo[1,2-a] quinolines.

Seminar “Approach to pyrido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazol-1-ones via in situ generation of acyl(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)ketenes by thermolysis of pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1,2,4-triones: experimental and theoretical studies”
Acyl(imidoyl)ketenes are highly reactive heterocumulenes that enable diversity-oriented synthesis of various drug-like heterocycles. Such ketenes, bearing heterocyclic substituents, afford angularly fused pyridin-2(1H)-ones in their [4+2]-cyclodimerization reactions. We have utilized this property for the development of a new synthetic approach to pharmaceutically interesting pyrido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazol-1-ones via the [4+2]-cyclodimerization of acyl(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)ketenes generated in situ. The thermal behaviors of 3-aroylpyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1,2,4-triones and 3-benzoylpyrrolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-1,2-dione (two new types of [e]-fused 1H-pyrrole-2,3-diones) have been studied by thermal analysis and HPLC to elucidate their capability to be a source of acyl(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)ketenes. As a result, we have found that only 3-aroylpyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1,2,4-triones are suitable for this. The experimental results are supplemented with computational DFT studies of the possible reaction mechanisms that demonstrate that thermolysis of 3-aroylpyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1,2,4-triones proceeds through an unprecedented cascade of two thermal decarbonylations.

Seminar “Unexpected Isocyanide-Based Multicomponent Reactions in Shaabani’s Research Group”
The isocyanide is an interesting and unique functional group in organic chemistry. The carbon atom in isocyanide can act as a nucleophile, as an electrophile, as a carbine involved in formal [1 + 4] cycloaddition, and as a radical acceptor to form imidoyl radical reaction intermediates. Its nature of the isocyanide makes it capable reacting with different strategies with various reactants under reaction conditions. As a result, the reaction of isocyanide were usually carried out via unpredictable way and obtained unexpected products. In this presentation, numerous unexpected isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions from our research group will be presented.

Seminar “Materials Functionalization and Modification via Multicomponent Reactions and Their Applications in Shaabani’s Research Group”
Recently, the preparation of neoteric functional materials with multicomponent reactions strategy has interestingly enhanced the union of materials chemistry. The main components (amine, carboxylic, or carbonyl groups) of MCRs are usually present in the materials structure or can be easily announced on their surfaces. Hence, materials can contribute in MCRs for the greatly talented modified/functionalized materials synthesis. In this presentation, the design and functionalization/modification of nano-materials and natural polymers with application in the catalytically chemical transformations and in the CO2 fixation will be presented.
