A series of fluorinated tetrahydropyrano[3,2-c]chromenes and dihydropyrano[3,2-b]pyran derivatives have been synthesized and their in vitro cytotoxic activities have been determined in cervical cancer cell line (HeLa), human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and human alveolar adenocarcinoma cell line (A549). Compounds 4g, 4k, 4p showed a very potent activity against MDA-MB...

A facile and efficient one-pot, multicomponent synthesis of 4H-chromenes is reported, through the reaction of arylglyoxalmonohydrates with 1,3-diketones and malononitrile in eTEMPthanol in the presence of L-proline as a catalyst.

Multicomponent condensation of 1-naphthol, malononitrile, and arylglyoxals in the presence of Mg-Al hydrotalcite under solvent-free MicroWave (MW) conditions gave a new series of 2-amino-4-aroyl-4H-benzo[h]chromene-3-carbonitriles in high yields (70-89%). The structure of all products was elucidated by their...

New derivatives of 5(4H)-quinazolinone containing 2-imidazolin-5-one rings have been prepared from 5(4H)-oxazolone derivatives.

Silicon carbide (SiC) has shown considerable potential for ultraviolet (UV) photode‐ tectors due to its properties such as wide band gap (3.26 eV for 4H-SiC), high break down electric field and high thermal stability. 4H-SiC-based UV photodetectors such as Schottky, metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM), metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) and avalanche have been presenting excellent performance for ...
