Substituted 2, 4- diphenyl quinolines were synthesized by a multicomponent domino reaction of anilines, aldehydes and terminal aryl alkynes. The synthetic pathway involves the formation of an imine, followed by the intermolecular addition of an alkyne to the imine. This intermediate immediately undergoes ring closure and oxidative aromatization. The reaction is catalyzed by natural kaolin, a st...

A number of N-arylmethyl substituted indole derivatives have been synthesized and their effectiveness against ADP and arachidonic acid induced platelet aggregation in human plasma was determined. The desired compounds were synthesized by reacting the appropriate aniline derivative with isatin (or substituted isatin) to form the corresponding imine structures. The so formed compound was then act...

MINDO-force calculations have been performed on phenyl and cyclopropyl substituted allyl cations and anions with complete energy minimization. It is found that the phenyl ring destabilizes the allyl cations when substituted at the terminal and at the center carbon atom of the cation, while the cyclopropyl ring stabilizes the allyl cation when substituted at the terminal carbon atoms, but destab...

A series of substituted 3-[(substituted-2-chloroquinolin-3-yl)methylene]-5-(substituted-phenyl)-furan-2(3H)-ones (4a-p) have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antimalarial activity against P. falciparum. The title compounds were synthesized by condensing 3-(substituted-benzoyl)propionic acids (3a-d) with substituted 2-chloroquinoline-3-carbaldehydes (2a-d) following modified Per...

Some pharmacologically active sulpha/substituted Indoles were synthesised by refluxing the mixture of sulpha/substituted phenyl amine and α-haloacyl benzene in glacial acetic acid. The newly synthesised compounds were characterised by IR, 1H NMR, and UV spectral studies. They were also evaluated for their promising pharmacological activity such as anti-tuberculosis and anti-inflammatory activit...

A ruthenium-catalyzed highly regioselective cyclization of substituted N-methoxy benzimidoyl halides with alkynes in the presence of CsOAc (25 mol%) to give substituted 1-halo and 1-alkoxy substituted isoquinolines in good to excellent yields is described.

Transition-metal substituted Keggin-type polyoxometalates (POMs) are of great interest for applications in biomedicine, material science and catalysis. The synthesis transition metal-substituted polytungstates via the formation a lacunary...

Pathogenic infections and inflammation are very common ailments humans suffer. Upsurge of resistant pathogens has impeded the antimicrobial drug development process in recent years and the search of new antimicrobial agents is clearly evident from the literature. In line with these developments the synthesis of N-substituted aryl-2-({4-[(substituted aryl carbamoyl) methyl]-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-4H-1...
