Schiff base derivatives have recently been shown to possess antimicrobial activity, and these derivatives include a limited number of salicylaldehyde hydrazones. To further explore this structure-activity relationship between salicylaldehyde hydrazones and antifungal activity, we previously synthesized and analyzed a large series of salicylaldehyde and formylpyridinetrione hydrazones for their ...

A facile and convenient synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds containing a sulfamoyl moiety suitable for use as antimicrobial agents was reported. The precursor 3-oxo-3-phenyl-N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)propionamide was coupled smoothly with arenediazonium salt producing hydrazones which reacted with malononitrile or triethylorthoformate affording pyridazine and triazine derivatives, respectively. ...

A series of N-cinnamoyl aryl hydrazones 2a-2i were synthesized in good yields by microwave irradiation technique. The title compounds were formed by nucleophilic condensation of various N1substituted benzylidene-2-cyano aceto hydrazides with N,N-dimethyl amino benzaldehyde. The intermediate N1substituted benzylidene-2-cyano aceto hydrazide was obtained by condensing various substituted benzalde...

The enantioselective addition of anilines to azoalkenes was accomplished through the use of a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst. The resulting α-arylamino hydrazones were obtained in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities and provide access to enantioenriched α-arylamino ketones. A serendipitous kinetic resolution of racemic α-arylamino hydrazones is also described.

Rat liver glutamine transaminase acts on y-glutamyl hydrazones of a-keto acids to yield the corresponding L-amino acids and 3-hydroxy-tetrahydro-6-pyridazinone-3-carboxyllc acid; the latter compound undergoes nonenzymatic dehydration in acid to yield 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-6-pyridazinone -3carboxylic acid. L-Amino acid oxidase (snake venom) also catalyzes the formation of 3-hydroxy-tetrahydro-6-pyr...

The synthesis of novel pyrazole derivatives and investigations of their chemical and biological behavior have gained more importance in recent decades for biological, medicinal, and agricultural reasons. Concerning the attempt to synthesize some novel pyrazole and fused pyrazole derivatives from 4-benzoyl5-phenyl-2,3-furandione 1 and various hydrazines or hydrazones, the synthesis of 4-benzoyl-...

An enantioselective hydrogenation of fluorinated hydrazones has been achieved by employing [Pd(R)-DTBM-SegPhos(OCOCF3)2] as the catalyst, providing a general and convenient method toward chiral fluorinated hydrazines. A broad substrate scope including β-aryl-, γ-aryl-, and alkyl-chain-substituted hydrazones worked efficiently in high yields and up to 94% of enantioselectivity. The reductive ami...

Ascorbate Determination, 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine Microamounts of vitamin C could be readily determined in 20 ul-samples using the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine method together with separation by thin layer chromato­ graphy. The condensation reaction was carried out for 5 min at 100 °C on a glass fibre disc. Purification of vitamin C hydrazones was accomplished by repeated separation on TLC plat...

α,β-Unsaturated N,N-dialkyl hydrazones undergo a mild [2 + 2] cycloaddition to allenamides when treated with a suitable gold catalyst. The method, which represents the first application of N,N-dialkyl hydrazones in gold catalysis, is compatible with a wide variety of substituents at the alkenyl moiety of the hydrazone component, proceeds with excellent levels of regio- and diastereoselectivity,...
