Efficient Palladium-Catalyzed Synthesis of Sulfonyl-Substituted Vinyl Arenes: Hydrazones Provide the Cross-Coupling Partner and Nucleophile Components

Palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of hydrazones with hydroxy-tethered allyl carbonates: synthesis of functionalized hydrazones

Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation of hydroxy-tethered allyl carbonates and hydrazones worked well without an external base to afford various E configurations of functionalized hydrazones, which were successfully transformed into pyridazines.

Construction of Sulfonyl Dihydrobenzo[c]xanthen-7-ones Core via NH4OAc/PdCl2/CuCl2-Mediated Double Cyclocondensation of α-Sulfonyl o-Hydroxyacetophenones with 2-Allylbenzaldehydes

NH₄OAc/PdCl₂/CuCl₂ mediated domino double cyclocondensation of α-sulfonyl o-hydroxyacetophenones and 2-allylbenzaldehydes provides tetracyclic sulfonyl dihydrobenzo[c]xanthen-7-one core with good to excellent yields in MeOH. The intermediates contain a 3-sulfonyl flavanone motif. Only water is generated as a byproduct. The use of various catalysts and reaction conditions is studied for the facile-operational conversion.

Rapid Synthesis of N-Tosylhydrazones under Solvent-Free Conditions and Their Potential Application Against Human Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Some N-tosylhydrazone derivatives were effectively synthesized under solvent-free conditions by using a grinding method at room temperature. The short reaction time, clean and mild process with simple workup and easy purification of the target compounds were salient features of the present protocol, which enables straightforward access to N-tosylhydrazones. Among the tosylhydrazone derivatives evaluated, compound 3 l exhibits excellent apoptosis-promoting and anticancer potential against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell lines. This research shows that our synthesized compound 3 l may be a desirable and effective therapeutic drug against TNBC.
