BACKGROUND Indolinone and spiro-indoline derivatives have been employed in the preparation of different important therapeutic compounds required for treatment of anticonvulsants, antibacterial, Antitubercular, and anticancer activities. Schiff bases have been found to possess various pharmacological activities such as antitubercular, plant growth inhibiting, insecticsidal, central nerve system ...

In the title compound, C(37)H(30)Cl(4)N(2)O(2), the pyridinone ring adopts a twisted half-chair conformation. In the octa-hydro-indolizine fused-ring system, the piperidine ring is in a chair conformation and the pyrrole ring is twisted about the C-N bond linking the five- and six-membered rings. The mol-ecular structure features an intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action and the crystal packing is ...

A series of novel pyrazole amide derivatives 3a-3p which take TMV PC protein as the target has been designed and synthesized by the reactions of 5-chloro-1-aryl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids with 5-amino-1-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles. All the compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Preliminary bioassays indicated that all the compounds ac...

A series of novel azo-disperse dyes containing alkylhydrazonopyridinone structures were synthesized. 4-Methyl-2,6-dioxo-1-propyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (8) is synthesized by one-pot synthesis using ethyl cyanoacetate, propylamine, and ethyl acetoacetate. Compound 8 is then coupled with aromatic and heteroaromatic diazonium salts to afford the corresponding aryl- and heteroary...

The anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 is a well-known and attractive therapeutic target for cancer. In the present study the solution-phase T3P-DMSO mediated efficient synthesis of 2-amino-chromene-3-carbonitriles from alcohols, malanonitrile and phenols is reported. These novel 2-amino-chromene-3-carbonitriles showed cytotoxicity in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines. Compound 4 g was fo...

Starting from N-substituted indole-3-carboxaldehydes (1a-g) a series of new 3-[(N-substituted indol-3-yl)methyleneamino]-6-amino-4-aryl-pyrano(2,3-c)pyrazole-5-carbonitriles (3a-g and 4a-g) have been synthesized via the acid catalyzed condensation reaction of 1a-g with 3-amino-5-pyrazolone, followed by the reaction with arylidene malononitriles. A series of new 3,6-diamino-4-(N-substituted indo...

3-Acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarin (2) was reacted with some aldehydes (4-chlorobenzaldehyde, 4-bromobenzaldehyde, 5-methylfurfural) to afford the chalcones (3a-c). Cyclization of these chalcones with malononitrile in the presence of ammonium acetate afforded pyridine carbonitriles (4a-c), while the cyclization reaction of chalcones (3a-c) with ethyl cyanoacetate afforded the oxopyridine carbonitriles ...

A series of new 6-amino-4aryl-2’-[(4-Aminophenyl)thio]-2,4’-bipyridine-5-carbonitriles (3a-h) were synthesized from 4-aminothiophenol (1). The reaction of 4-aminothiophenol with 4-acetyl-2-chloropyridine yielded 1-{2-[(4-aminophenyl)thio]pyridin-4-yl}ethanone(2).Furthertreatment of  2 with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of alcoholic malanonitrile in ammonium acetate gave compounds (3a-h). T...
