Herein we explore facile synthesis of 4-(3H)-Qunazolinone derivatives, achieved by the cyclocondensation of anthranilic acid, aromatic amines and triethyl orthoformate in presence of thiamine hydrochloride (Vitamin B1) as a catalyst, using grinding method. This protocol offers several advantages such as reusability of catalyst, excellent yield, shorter reaction time and economic availability.Qu...

Some 1-(4-chlorophenyl or benzenesulfonamide)-2,3- and/or 4-substituted-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one derivatives were synthesized and screened for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, in addition to their ulcerogenic liability. They were found to be active as anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. Compound 6b was found to be the most active as anti-inflammatory agent and compound 9b was f...
