Acid Catalyzed N-Alkylation of Pyrazoles with Trichloroacetimidates

Rowan I. L. Meador, Nilamber A. Mate & John D. Chisholm · Organics · 2022

N-Alkyl pyrazoles are important heterocycles in organic and medicinal chemistry, demonstrating a wide range of biological activity. A new method for the N-alkylation of pyrazoles has been developed using trichloroacetimidate electrophiles and a Brønsted acid catalyst. These react...

Recent Advances in the Synthesis of Piperazines: Focus on C–H Functionalization

Carolina Durand & Michal Szostak · Organics · 2021

Piperazine ranks as the third most common nitrogen heterocycle in drug discovery, and it is the key component of several blockbuster drugs, such as Imatinib (also marketed as Gleevec) or Sildenafil, sold as Viagra. Despite its wide use in medicinal chemistry, the structural diver...

Synthesis of 1-Trifluorometylindanes and Close Structures: A Mini Review

Olesya V. Khoroshilova & Aleksander V. Vasilyev · Organics · 2021

This review describes methods for the synthesis of 1-trifluomethylindanes and close structures, which are still quite rare and scarcely available compounds. There are two main approaches to obtain 1-CF3-indanes. The first one is the construction of an indane system from CF3 precu...

Electrocyclizations of Conjugated Azapolyenes Produced in Reactions of Azaheterocycles with Metal Carbenes

Nikolai V. Rostovskii, Mikhail S. Novikov & Alexander F. Khlebnikov · Organics · 2021

Conjugated azapolyenes (azabuta-1,3-dienes, aza-/diaza-/oxaza-/oxadiazahexa-1,3,5-trienes) are highly reactive in electrocyclization reactions, which makes them convenient precursors for the synthesis of a wide range of four-, five-, and six-membered nitrogen heterocycles that ar...

Ring-Opening of Cyclodextrins: An Efficient Route to Pure Maltohexa-, Hepta-, and Octaoses

Matthieu Pélingre, Dindet Steve-Evanes Koffi Teki, Jamal El-Abid, Vincent Chagnault, José Kovensky & Véronique Bonnet · Organics · 2021

Many preparations of maltooligosaccharides have been described in literature, essentially using enzymatic or biotechnological processes. These compounds, derived from starch, are well-known as prebiotic agents. The use of maltohexa-, hepta-, and octaoses as synthons in organic sy...

Theoretical Insight into the Reversal of Chemoselectivity in Diels-Alder Reactions of α,β-Unsaturated Aldehydes and Ketones Catalyzed by Brønsted and Lewis Acids

Lakhdar Benhamed, Sidi Mohamed Mekelleche & Wafaa Benchouk · Organics · 2021

Experimentally, a reversal of chemoselectivity has been observed in catalyzed Diels–Alder reactions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes (e.g., (2E)-but-2-enal) and ketones (e.g., 2-hexen-4-one) with cyclopentadiene. Indeed, using the triflimidic Brønsted acid Tf2NH as catalyst, the reac...

A Novel Catalytic Synthesis of Flavones under Autoclave Conditions and Comparative Study of Anti-cancer Activity

K Rajeshbabu, S Pushpalatha, B Ramakrishna & V Madhavarao · British Journal of Pharmaceutical Research · 2016

Novel, less toxic, more effective catalysts were used to synthesize various flavones under auto clave conditions. Substituted o- hydroxyl acetophenones and benzaldehydes were reacted in-presence of 2, 4, 6-trimethylpyridine, a pinch of TiCl4 and yielded chalcones. Equimolar ratio...
