In the title compound, C26H20ClNO3, the quinoline fragment is nearly orthogonal to the adjacent aryl ring, while the rest of the molecular skeleton is close to being planar. The crystal structure contains no hydrogen bonds of any sort, but there are two π-π stacking interactions present. One, involving the quinoline ring, links molecules related by inversion, while the other, involving the two ...

A valuable pharmacophore, the 2-aminoimidazole moiety, can be accessed with a variety of substitution patterns through an addition-hydroamination-isomerization sequence (see scheme; R(1),R(4),R(5)=alkyl; R(3)=alkyl, aryl; R(2)=H, alkyl, aryl). The synthesis of the propargyl cyanamide precursors through a three-component coupling enables the preparation of this important heterocyclic core struct...

Chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (ClPAHs) have been recently reported to occur widely in environmental matrices such as urban air, vehicle exhaust, snow, tap water and sediments. However, toxicological information on ClPAHs is currently very limited. Therefore, in the present study, we evaluated the influence of typical ClPAHs like chlorinated phenanthrenes (ClPhes), chlorinated pyr...

2-Amino-5-(2-aryl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 2-4 have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-aryl-2H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acids 1 with thiosemicarbazide. Their reaction with phenacyl (p-substituted phenacyl) bromides led to formation of the respective 6-aryl-2-(2-aryl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 5. Reactivity of the latter fused ring towards reac...

Herein we report a highly efficient method for nickel-catalyzed C-N bond formation between sulfonamides and aryl electrophiles. This technology provides generic access to a broad range of N-aryl and N-heteroaryl sulfonamide motifs, which are widely represented in drug discovery. Initial mechanistic studies suggest an energy-transfer mechanism wherein C-N bond reductive elimination occurs from a...

Three N-ar-yl-2,2,2-tri-bromo-acetamides, namely, 2,2,2-tri-bromo-N-(2-fluoro-phen-yl)-acetamide, C8H5Br3FNO, (I), 2,2,2-tri-bromo-N-[3-(tri-fluoro-methyl)-phen-yl]-acetamide, C9H5Br3F3NO, (II) and 2,2,2-tri-bromo-N-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)-acetamide, C8H5Br3FNO, (III) were synthesized and their crystal structures were analysed. In the crystal structure of (I), C-Br⋯πar-yl inter-actions connect the m...

Chart 1) were reported to inhibit colon and lung tumors in a patent literature. Subsequently, we found that 3-aryl b-carbolin-1-ones (2) inhibit the proliferation of HeLa cells with IC50 values in the low micromolar range and that the aromatic substitution on C3 in 2 proved to be essential for their biological activity. To broaden the scope of previous studies, aryl-substituted 2-pyridone-conta...

Preliminary examination for the structure-activity relationship of quinone monooxime derivatives on cytotoxicity against HeLa S3 cell and further trials using eight different cell lines suggested that 2-aryl-6,7-methylenedioxy-1,4-naphthoquinone-1-oxime methyl ethers, carrying 2-methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxyphenyl, 7-methoxy-2-methylbenzofuran-4-yl, and 2-methoxycarbonyl-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl as the...
