Synthesis of Novel 5-Substituted 6-Phenylpyrrolo[2, 3-d ]pyrimidine Derivatives via One-pot Three-Component Reactions Under Catalyst-Free Condition

Synthesis Strategies and Medicinal Value of Pyrrole and its Fused Heterocyclic Compounds

For several decades, interest in pyrrole and pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives increases owing to their biological importance, such as anti-tumor, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-histaminic, anti-malarial, anti-Parkinson, antioxidant and anti-viral, specially recently against COVID-19. These tremendous biological features motivated scientists to discover more pyrrole and fused pyrrole derivatives, owing to the great importance of the pyrrole nucleus as a pharmacophore in many drugs, and motivated us to present this article, highlighting on the different synthetic pathways of pyrrole and its fused compounds specially pyrrolopyrimidine, as well as their medicinal value from 2017 till 2021.

Dicarbonyl compounds in the synthesis of heterocycles under green conditions

Carbon–carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond forming reactions are strategically employed for the generation of a variety of heterocyclic systems. This class of compounds represents the most general structural unit, present in many natural compounds. They are recognized for their valuable biologically properties and wide range of applications in medicinal, pharmaceutical, and other related fields of chemistry. This is an updated review on the use of dicarbonyl compounds under environmentally friendly conditions to access a series of heterocyclic structures, e.g., quinoxaline, quinazolinones, benzochalcogenazoles, indoles, among others. Synthetic protocols involving copper-catalyzed, multicomponent and cascade reactions, decarboxylative cyclization, recycling of CO2, and electrochemical approaches are presented and discussed.

Acetic acid mediated regioselective synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted thiazoles by a domino multicomponent reaction

Acetic acid mediated regioselective synthesis of novel 2,4,5-trisubstituted thiazole derivatives has been reported by a domino reaction of thiosemicarbazide and aldehydes/ketones/isatin, to generate thiosemicarbazones (in situ) followed by addition of arylglyoxal and active methylene/activated C–H acids/pyrazole/indole in ethanol at 80 °C.
