Multicomponent Reactions Using C,N-Binucleophilic Nature of Aminopyrazoles: Construction of Pyrazole-Fused Heterocycles

Synthesis of pyrazole-fused heterocycles has gained considerable attention in recent years due to their wide applications in medicinal chemistry. Aminopyrazoles are versatile building blocks for the synthesis of pyrazole-fused heterocycles by multicomponent reactions. Due to the presence of multiple reaction sites, they have fascinating chemical reactivity. Thus, they have been extensively used in multicomponent reactions for the construction of pyrazole-fused heterocycles. Although few review articles on the preparation and applications of aminopyrazoles are known in the literature, to date there is no dedicated review article on the construction of pyrazole-fused heterocycles exploring the reactivity of amino pyrazoles as C,N-binucleophiles in multicomponent reactions. Considering this, herein the multicomponent reactions for the construction of pyrazole-fused heterocycles exploring C,N-binucleophilic nature of amino pyrazoles have been reported.

Organocatalyzed Heterocyclic Transformations In Green Media: A Review

Background:

Since the discovery of metal-free catalysts or organocatalysts about twenty years ago, a number of small molecules with different structures have been used to accelerate organic transformations. With the development of environmental awareness, to obtain highly efficient scaffolds, scientists have directed their studies towards synthetic methodologies that minimize or preferably eliminate the formation of waste, avoid toxic solvents and reagents and use renewable starting materials as far as possible.

Methods:

In this connection, the organocatalytic reactions providing efficiency and selectivity for most of the transformations have become an endless topic in organic chemistry since several advantages from both practical and environmental standpoints. Organocatalysts contributing to the transformation of reactants into products with the least possible waste production, have been serving the concept of green chemistry.

Results and Conclusion:

Organocatalysts have been classified based on their binding capacity to the substrate with covalent or noncovalent interactions involving hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction. Diverse types of small organic compounds including proline and its derivatives, phase-transfer catalysts, (thio)urease, phosphoric acids, sulfones, N-oxides, guanidines, cinchona derivatives, aminoindanol, and amino acids have been utilized as hydrogen bonding organocatalysts in different chemical transformations.

This review summaries recent synthetic developments towards spirocyclic oxindoles and applications as valuable medicinal and synthetic targets.

Chitosan-encapsulated manganese ferrite particles bearing sulfonic acid group catalyzed efficient synthesis of spiro indenoquinoxalines

A simple, highly versatile and efficient synthesis of 5-phenyl-spiro[diindenopyridine-indenoquinoxaline]-diones is achieved through a four-component one pot reaction of ninhydrin, 1,2-diaminobenzene, 1,3-indandione and aniline. This reaction was catalyzed by MnFe₂O₄@CS-Bu-SO₃H MNPs as a very efficient, recyclable heterogeneous catalyst in acetonitrile under reflux conditions. The catalyst can be recovered from the subsequent reaction mixture and reused for at least five cycles without any appreciable loss in its efficiency. The core–shell structure and composition of the produced magnetic nanocatalyst were analyzed using FT-IR, XRD, VSM, SEM, EDX and TGA techniques.
