nano tio2 supported on sio2 (nano tio2@sio2) as a solid lewis acid, was described to be an effective and reusable catalyst for one-pot three-component reaction of benzil, aryl aldehydes and ammonium acetate for the synthesis 2-aryl-4,5-diphenyl-1h-imdazoles synthesis. to explore the high efficacy of the catalytic system the four-component cyclization of benzil, aryl aldehydes, ammonium acetate ...

A one-pot, two step synthesis of highly substituted imidazoles has been carried out in good to excellent yields for the first time via a cascade intermolecular aza-SN2'-intramolecular aza-Michael addition involving a variety of Morita-Baylis-Hillman acetates of nitroalkenes and amidines in the presence of DABCO at room temperature. The synthetic and biological utility of the products has been d...

warded as a promising molecule because of its broad spectrum pharmacological activities like antitubercular, antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, anti-HIV, anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory and antihypertensive activities. Imidazoles are one of the oldest and potent heterocyclic compounds having antimicrobial activities. Structure activity relationship studies of quinazolinone ring system revea...

Starting from commercially available amines and propargylamides a variety of substituted imidazoles were synthesized via a novel hydroamination-cyclization sequence. The target compounds are obtained in good to excellent yields in the presence of catalytic amounts of zinc triflate.

A short and efficient synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted imidazoles has been developed which provides the desired products with complete regioselectivity. This protocol allows preparation of compounds which are challenging to prepare by current literature methods in a regioselective fashion, a sterically and electronically diverse range of N-substituents being accessible. The sequence involves an u...

The microwave assisted and solvent free synthesis of title compounds is described in this protocol. Ten new aryl imidazoles, which are incorporated with the chemotherapeutic pharmacophores, have been synthesized by adopting one pot multicomponent reaction. First, primary aromatic or heteryl amine has been condensed with aryl or heteryl aldehydes to afford corresponding Schiff base. The Schiff b...

Imidazole is a planar, five membered heteroaromatic molecule with pyrrole type and pyridine type annular nitrogens. Several approaches are available of imidazoles from alpha halo ketones, aminonitrile, aldehyde ect. Reactivity of imidazole and benzimidazole is referred from sets of  resonance structure in which the dipolar contributors have finite importance. Imidazoles among the principal grou...

A series of new tetrasubstituted imidazoles 2-phenyl-3-(1, 4, 5-triphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-1H-indole derivatives substituted with –F, Cl, Br, I,-OCH3 and -NHCOCH3 were synthesized using a multicomponent reaction. The compounds were obtained in good yields by easy workup and with high purity

a series of tri- and tetra- substituted imidazoles were synthesized from benzyl, aldehyde and ammonium acetate in the presence of zeolite as an ecofriendly reusable catalyst under microwave irradiation in the absence of solvent. the yields are high to excellent and the use of microwave irradiation reduces reaction times to few minute.
