Singlet Oxygen, Radicals, Fluorescein, Diphenylisobenzofuran, Reversed Micelles The 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran oxidation reaction was investigated in methanolic and dodecylammonium propionate reversed micellar solutions using fluorescein sodium as photosensitizer. It was found that aniline remarkably enhanced the furan oxidation in methanolic solutions but inhibited it in reversed micellar solut...

Pharmacological and physicochemical classification of the furan and thiophene amide derivatives by multiple regression analysis and partial least square (PLS) based on semi-empirical ab initio molecular modeling studies and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) retention data is proposed. Structural parameters obtained from the PCM (Polarizable Continuum Model) method and the literature...

Novel synthesis of diversely substituted 2-(furan-3-yl)acetates via palladium-catalyzed one-pot multi-component reactions of allenols, aryl iodides, alcohols, and carbon monoxide has been developed. Notably, the formation of the title compounds features a cascade process combining carbonylation of aryl iodide, alcohoxyl carbonylation of the in situ formed allyl palladium complex, and intramolec...

In the title compound, C18H17ClO2S, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzo-furan ring system and the methyl-phenyl ring is 14.50 (4)°. The centroid-centroid distances between the benzene and the methyl-phenyl rings are 3.827 (2) and 3.741 (2) Å, while the centroid-centroid distance between the furan and methyl-phenyl rings is 3.843 (2) Å. These distances indicate π-π inter-acti...

The separation of nine furanonaphthoquinones by micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is described. The running electrolytes used in this method were 0.03 M sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in 0.09 M borate buffer (pH 9) containing 10% methanol, with an applied voltage of 20 kV. Application of this technique in the determination of the main furanonaphthoquinones, 5-hydroxy-2-(1-hydroxyethy...

The diastereospecific formation of δ-hydroxyalkylbutenolide phosphonate has been achieved via a vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction. The reaction was performed using α-ketophosphonate 1 and 2-(trimethylsilyloxy)furan 2 mediated by Cu(OTf)(2) and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol as additive in CH(2)Cl(2). The reaction proceeds rapidly and affords the corresponding 5-(hydroxy(aryl)methyl) furan-2(5H)-one p...

Three new 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3-thiazolidine and 1,2,4-triazole derivatives were obtained starting from furan-2-carbohydrazide. Then, 1,2,4-triazole compound was converted to the corresponding Mannich bases using several secondary amines including piperidine, piperazine, morpholine or thiomorpholine moiety. The synthesis of 5-(furan-2-yl)-4-{[(4-methoxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}-4H-1,2,4-triazol...

In the title compound, C16H13FO3S, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzo-furan ring system and the 3-methyl-phenyl ring is 80.96 (4)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of π-π inter-actions between furan and benzene rings, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.758 (1) and 3.771 (1) Å. A similar inter-action is found between furan rings, with a centroid-centroid d...

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...

This paper describes the synthesis of four chiral derivatives of the electronically highly conjugated tetra-2-pyridylpyrazine (TPPZ) bridging ligand, which are denoted (R)- and (S)-4,5- and 5,6-pineno-tetra-2-pyridylpyrazine (PTPPZ). Preparation of these ligands was undertaken through the use of commercially available, enantiomerically pure (1R)- and (1S)-alpha-pinene, which was functionalized ...
