The three components one pot synthesis of 2-amino-4H-benzo-[b] -pyran derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields within short reaction time by condensing dimedone, aldehydes and malanonitrile or ethylcyanoacetate using a catalytic amount of (diacetoxyiodo)benzene as hypervalent iodine in aqueous ethanol under reflux conditions have been discussed. This aqua mediated Knoevenagel-cyclo...

Metformin was reported to inhibit the proliferation of many cancer cells, including melanoma cells. In this report, we investigated the effect of metformin on melanoma invasion and metastasis development. Using different in vitro approaches, we found that metformin inhibits cell invasion without affecting cell migration and independently of antiproliferation action. This inhibition is correlate...

The total syntheses of the Lythracea alkaloids (+)-vertine and (+)-lythrine are described. Enantioenriched pelletierine is used as a chiral building block and engaged into a two step pelletierine condensation leading to two quinolizidin-2-one diastereomers in a 8 : 1 ratio. The major product is used in the synthesis of (+)-vertine via aryl-aryl coupling and ring closing metathesis to provide a ...

p-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (dbsa) was used as a catalyst for a simple and efficient one-pot synthesis of aryl substititued tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrans and dihydropyrano[c]chromens via initial knoevenagel, subsequent micheal and final heterocyclization reactions of aryl aldehyde, malononitrile and 4-hydroxycoumarin/dimedone in moderate to excellent yields. the present method was operationally si...
