A novel series of Mannich bases containing isoniazid were prepared. First, reaction of 2-propoxybenzaldehyde with isoniazid gave the corresponding hydrazone (2a). Subsequently, product 2a after the Mannich reaction of aminomethylation with formaldehyde and secondary amines gave 2b–k. The inhibitory potencies of the synthesized compounds were assayed in vitro against a panel of microorganisms an...

Chalcones and Mannich bases are a group of compounds known for their cytotoxicities. In this study restricted chalcone analogue, compound 2-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)-2,3-dihydroinden-1-one MT1, was used as a starting compound to synthesize new mono Mannich bases since Mannich bases may induce more cytotoxicity than chalcone analogue that they are derived from by producing additional alkylating cen...

Four series of N-Mannich bases of 3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thiones 7a-g, 8a-g, 9a-g and 10a-g (DHPMs) have been prepared by Mannich reaction with seven different heterocyclic secondary amino compounds 6a-g and formaldehyde 5. In this reaction, four different derivatives of 3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thiones 4a-d have been used as hydrogen active compound. These precursors have been derived ...

In an effort to develop anticancer agents, a series of Mannich bases were prepared by Mannich reaction. When one biologically active molecule is linked to another, the resultant molecule generally has increased potency. Hence two pharmacophores, i.e. quinazoline ring and amine moiety are fused to obtain highly potent, more specific and less toxic agent. In the present study, synthesis of novel ...

The amino alkylation of aromatic substrates by the Mannich reaction is of considerable importance for the synthesis and modification of biologically active compounds. The Mannich derivatives of 2-Chloro 4nitrobenzamide with formaldehyde and various secondary amines were synthesized for study of their biological effects. The structures of the synthesized compounds were assigned on the basis of e...

Chiral 1,2-amino alcohols and 1,2-diols are common structural motifs found in a vast array of natural and biologically active molecules.1 Recently, significant efforts have been applied toward the development of direct catalytic asymmetric approaches to the construction of these units based on the addition of unmodified R-hydroxyketones to imines or aldehydes in Mannich-type and aldol reactions...
