Herein, it has been shown that the bismuth ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (BFO-MNPs) are new, efficient and recyclable catalysts for the synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives by the Hantzsch reaction. The one-pot four-component cyclocondensation reaction of dimedone, aromatic aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate was carried out under solvent-free conditions. The...

the 2-mono and 2,6-disubstituted methyl-1,4-dihydropyridines were synthesized by reaction of morpholine, thiophenol, 8-hydroxyquinoline, 2-naphthol and 2-mercopto-1-methyl imidazole with the 2-mono bromo and 2,6-dibromo-1,4-dihidropyridines.

oxidation of different types of 1,4-dihydropyridines with diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (dpp) and benzoyl peroxide (bz2o2) as free radical oxidizing agents to pyridine derivatives is reported and a mechanism for this oxidation is also proposed.

The amino acid proline catalyzed the three- and five-component cascade olefination-Diels-Alder-epimerization and olefination-Diels-Alder-epimerization-olefination-hydrogenation reactions of readily available precursors enones 1a-i, arylaldehydes 2a-k, alkyl cyanoacetates 3a-e and Hantzsch ester 9 to furnish highly substituted prochiral 1-cyano-4-oxo-2,6-diaryl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid alkyl e...

The first enantioselective organocatalytic hydride reduction has been accomplished. The use of iminium catalysis has provided a new organocatalytic strategy for the enantioselective reduction of beta,beta-substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes to generate beta-stereogenic aldehydes. The use of imidazolidinone 2 as the asymmetric catalyst has been found to mediate the transfer of hydrogen ...

The title mol-ecule, C(17)H(19)NO(5), was prepared by a Hantzsch dihydro-pyridine synthesis from 4-hy-droxy-benzaldehyde, methyl acetoacetate and NH(4)HCO(3). In the mol-ecular structure of the title compound, the dihydro-pyridine ring adopts a flattened boat conformation and the plane of the base of the boat forms a dihedral angle of 80.8 (2)° with the aromatic six-membered ring. The packing i...

The synthesis of a novel dihydropyridine derivatives bearing dimedone as an excellent precursor has been achieved by applying three component Hantzsch condensation. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, Mass spectra and also by C, H, N analyses. All synthesized compounds undergo docking studies and biological screening for antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive ba...

Reactions of 1 ,Zdihydropyridines (la-c) and 1,4-dihydropyridines (2a-c) in the presence of benzyne (3) under thermal conditions, and in the case of (2c) under photochemical conditions, have been investigated. Benzyne acts as an oxidizing agent to convert dihydropyridine (la) and (2a) to the corresponding pyridine (4) or adds as a dienophile to (lb-c).
