An efficient sodium bismuthate (NaBiO3) synthesis of biologically active spiro[4H-pyran]derivatives has been accomplished via one-pot three-condensation of isatin/acenaphthequinone, malononitrile and different reagents including 1,3-dicrbonyl compounds, α-naphthol and 4-hydroxycumarin under solvent-free conditions. The notable advantages of the present procedure are: eco-friendly, environmental...

An easy, effective and eco-friendly one-pot process for the preparation of 4H-pyran compounds has been established by using a catalytic amount reduced graphene oxide functionalized with diethylenetriamine (rGO-DETA) in water under mild conditions. The catalyst was very this reaction provided desired products 1a–t good to high yields (87%–97%) short times. Moreover, rGO-DETA composite could be r...

Synthesis of 4-(N,N- dimethylamino)-3-aryl-3-butene-2-one, ethyl-5-aryl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-2-carboxylate, ethyl-5-aryl-4-pyridones-2-carboxylate and 5-aryl-3-cyano-5-methyl-2-pyridones (aryl=3-thienyl, 2-furyl) are described.

An atom-economical stereoselective synthesis of [{1-acetyl-5-methyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo(3.2.1)octane}-7-spiro-3'-(indolin-2'-one)] derivatives, containing both the oxindole and 6,8-dioxabicyclo(3.2.1)octane moieties via TiCl(4) catalyzed coupling of 2-acetyl-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran with isatin derivatives is described.

A series of 2-amino-4H-pyran-3-carbonitrile derivatives were designed and synthesized. Their antitubercular activities were evaluated against autoluminescent M. tuberculosis H37Ra and standard strain M. tuberculosis H37Rv. No obvious antitubercular activities could be observed (MIC > 10 g/mL). The results are in sharp contrast with the previously reported data.

Herein, the synthesis and crystal structure of 7-hy-droxy-3-(2-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-tri-fluoro-meth-yl-4H-chromen-4-one, C17H11F3O4, are reported. This isoflavone is used as a starting material in the preparation an array of potent and competitive FPR antagonists. The pyran ring significantly deviates from planarity and the dihedral angle between the benzo-pyran mean plane and that of the exocyc...

An operationally simple and efficient protocol for the construction of dihydrofuran derivatives has been accomplished via a sequential addition of N-chlorosuccinimide and a base to 2-amino-4H-pyran derivatives in alcohol medium. The one-pot protocol proceeding via tandem oxidative difunctionalization and ring contraction provides an entirely new strategy for the construction of the dihydrofuran...

A novel near-infrared (NIR) and colorimetric fluorescent molecular probe based on a dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran chromophore for the selective detection of glutathione in living cells has been developed. The fluorescence OFF-ON switch is triggered by cleavage of the 2,4-dinitrobenzensulfonyl (DNBS) unit by the interaction with GSH.

Two new phenols, 2(S)-2',7-dihydroxy-5,8-dimethoxyflavanone and (S)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one, were isolated from the ethanol extract of Scutellaria barbata. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis.

A catalytic amount of tin(IV) chloride catalyzed formal [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of di-tert-butyl 2-ethoxycyclobutane-1,1-carboxylate with ketones or aldehydes to give diethyl 6-ethoxydihydro-2H-pyran-3,3(4H)-dicarboxylates, whereas two equivalents of trimethylsilyl triflate promoted tandem [4+2] cycloaddition and lactonization to afford 3-oxo-2,6-dioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-4-carboxylate est...
