Kaempferide (3,5,7-trihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone, 1), a naturally occurring flavonoid with potent anticancer activity in a number of human tumour cell lines, was first semisynthesized from naringin. Based on Mannich reaction of kaempferide with various secondary amines and formaldehyde, nine novel kaempferide Mannich base derivatives 2-10 were synthesized. The aminomethylation occurred preferent...

We reported the first enzyme-catalysed, direct, three-component asymmetric Mannich reaction using protease type XIV from Streptomyces griseus (SGP) in acetonitrile. Yields of up to 92% with enantioselectivities of up to 88% e.e. and diastereoselectivities of up to 92:8 (syn:anti) were achieved under the optimised conditions. This enzyme's catalytic promiscuity expands the application of this bi...

This paper describes the biocatalytic synthesis of new Mannich bases containing various heterocyclic rings (thiazole, furane, thiophene, pyridine) by applying the lipase catalyzed trimolecular condensation of the corresponding heterocyclic aldehydes with acetone and primary aromatic amines, in mild and eco-friendly reaction conditions. The obtained Mannich bases were acylated to their correspon...

RATIONALE Benzimidazoles and its derivatives represent one of the mainly biological active classes of literature. AIM In this present study aimed to synthesize N-mannich bases derivatives compounds bearing of 2-substituted benzimidazole moiety, in order to investigate their possible biological activity. METHOD Benzimidazole compounds were prepared from the condensation reaction between orth...

Purpose: To synthesize Mannich base imidazole derivatives, and evaluate their antimicrobial, nematicidal and larvicidal properties . Methods: Compounds 1a-g and 2a-g were prepared using a Mannich condensation method. The chemical structures of compounds 2a-g were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonan...

The synthesis of a new tridentate Schiff-base thiosemicarbazone ligand (HL) that derived from the reaction ((R)-2-((4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)((2-nitrophenyl)amino)methyl)-5,5-di methyl- cyclohexane-1,3-dione with thiosemicarbazide is reported. title ligand(E)-2-((R)-2-((R)-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)((2-nitrophenyl)amino)methyl)-5,5-dimethyl-3-oxocyclohexylidene)hydrazine-1-carbothioamide selected...
