New and known arylidene-hydrazinyl-thiazole derivatives have been synthesized by a convenient Hantzsch condensation. All compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity on two carcinoma cell lines, MDA-MB231 and HeLa. Significant antiproliferative activity for 2-(2-benzyliden-hydrazinyl)-4-methylthiazole on both MDA-MB-231 (IC50: 3.92 µg/mL) and HeLa (IC50: 11.4 µg/mL) cell lines, and ...

Organoammonium salts composed of a Brønsted acid and an anilinothiourea promoted the Michael addition of ß-keto esters and α,ß-unsaturated aldehydes in the presence of primary amines to give functionalized 1,4-dihydropyridines enantioselectively. With the use of the different Brønsted acids such as DFA and HBF(4) with the same bifunctional thiourea, both enantiomers of 4-substituted 1,4-dihydro...

A concise one-pot synthesis of highly functionalized pyridines has been developed. The first step in the reaction sequence is the formal insertion of rhodium vinylcarbenoids across the N-O bond of isoxazoles. Upon heating, the insertion products undergo a rearrangement to give 1,4-dihydropyridines. DDQ oxidation then affords the corresponding pyridines in 31-84% yield. The process has proven ge...

An efficient and expeditious catalyst-free procedure was developed for the one- pot synthesis of 1, 4-dihydropyridine derivatives via the three-component reaction of various aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate, and ammonium acetate in PEG-400. The reaction was carried out at 110°С and the products were obtained in good to high yields.

This work concerns the synthesis of poly(pyrazolopyridine)s via a three-component Hantzsch reaction. The first part this study was intended to determine adequate experimental conditions for an analytically pure pyrazolopyridine heterocycle model compound in quantitative yield, which can be further used polymer synthesis. For purpose, effect different parameters (solvent, temperature, additive) ...

Silica boron sulfonic acid [SiO2–B(OSO3H)3] as an inexpensive, reusable, and Lewis and Brønsted acid catalyst was successfully synthesized, and used for the one-pot three-components synthesis of biologically active substituted Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives  in the absence of solvent at 90ºC. Silica boron sulfonic acid is attractive and efficient, because it plays in two role as a Lew...
