A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j ]xanthene derivatives through one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aryl aldehydes in the presence of niobium pentachloride is described. The reactions were carried out using 25 mole % of NbCl5, at ambient temperature, and in acceptable reaction times, affording excellent yields of the products. c © 2014 Institute o...

A series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines have been synthesized using one-pot water mediated synthetic route under microwave irradiation involving the condensation of 2-chloroquinoline-3-carbaldehydes with semicarbazide or 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine. The compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, ulcerogenic and lipid peroxidation actions. The pharmacological evaluation showe...

The title compound, C(13)H(14)N(2)O(2), an isoxazol-5-one derivative, was synthesized by a one-pot, three-component condensation reaction of methyl acetoacetate, hydroxy-lamine hydro-chloride and 4-(dimethyl-amino)benzaldehyde. All the non-H atoms are co-planar [r.m.s deviation = 0.0039 Å], with a Z configuration about the C=C bond. The dihedral angle between the phenyl ring and the isoxazole r...

A one-pot two-step reaction (Knoevenagel condensation - reduction of the double bond) has been developed using calcium hydride as a reductant in the presence of a supported noble metal catalyst. The reaction between carbonyl compounds and active methylene compounds such as methylcyanoacetate, 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid, dimedone and the more challenging dimethylmalonate, affords the correspond...

An exceptionally stereoselective and general synthesis of (Z)-α-haloacrylates, ready to undergo various synthetic transformations, has been demonstrated from α-haloacetates and aldehydes in a one-pot manner via the titanium-enolate based asymmetric aldol condensation. Besides being an expedient synthetic procedure, the ready availability of diverse α-haloacetates, exceptional stereoselectivity,...

The title compound, C(22)H(14)FN(3), was prepared by a one-pot condensation using malononitrile, an aromatic aldehyde, a methyl ketone and ammonium acetate as reacta-nts under microwave irradiation. The pyridine ring is twisted with respect to the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system, making dihedral angles of 41.9 (1) and 45.2 (1)°, respectively. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connecte...

[reaction: see text] A highly efficient aza Diels-Alder reaction of Danishefsky's diene with imines was found to occur in methanol in the absence of any acids at room temperature to give corresponding 2-substituted dihydro-4-pyridone derivatives in high yields. This reaction can be also carried out in a three-component one-pot reaction manner. The reaction was found to proceed through a Mannich...

A novel one-pot route for the synthesis of benzodiazepinyl phosphonates (BDPs) has been achieved. FeCl(3) efficiently catalyzed four-component condensation of diamines, acetone and phosphites in the presence of molecular sieves to furnish BDPs as novel chemical entities with good yield. The synthesized BDPs have shown significant protease inhibition activity against clostripain, a disease model...

A simple and efficient one pot synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromen-4-yl phosphonate derivatives has been accomplished by the condensation of salicylaldehyde, malononitrile/ethylcyanoacetate and triethyl phosphite/trimethyl phosphite in the presence of molecular iodine as catalyst in water at room temperature. All the reactions were very clean and the products were obtained in very good to excellent...

A rapid and environmentally friendly method is developed for the synthesis of a series of new substituted 2-amino-4H-pyran-3-carbonitriles through a one-pot condensation of malononitrile and α, α'-bis(arylidene) cycloalkanones in ethanol by using K(2)CO(3) as a catalyst. Short experimental reaction times, excellent yields, no need to use cumbersome apparatus for purification of the products, an...
