Benign methodology and improved synthesis of 5-(2-chloroquinolin-3-yl)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazoline using acetic acid aqueous solution under ultrasound irradiation

Synthesis of functionalized tetrahydrodibenzo[b,g][1,8]naphthyridin-1(2H)-ones through base-promoted annulation of quinoline-derived dipolarophiles and cyclic enaminones

An eco-friendly and metal-free method for the synthesis of tetrahydrodibenzo[b,g][1,8]naphthyridin-1(2H)-ones was established. Quinoline-derived dipolarophiles and cyclic enaminones as starting materials undergo a 1,4-Michael addition/SNAr tandem annulation reaction affording the target products. This approach features transition metal-free conditions, good functional group tolerance and operational simplicity.

A Study on Synthesis of Chalcone Derived -5- Membered Isoxazoline and Isoxazole Scaffolds

Chalcone-derived Isoxazole scaffolds remain the central focus because of their greater biological, clinical, and pharmacological properties. The present study reviews the synthesis of various chalcone derived - 5- Membered Isoxazoline and Isoxazole Scaffolds with the available literature until 2021. Keywords: Chalcones, Isoxazoles, Isoxazolines, Biological and Pharmacological properties.

Novel, fast and efficient one-pot sonochemical synthesis of 2-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles

Ultrasound promoted synthesis of 2-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles at ambient temperature is reported. The remarkable features of the new procedure are shorter reaction time, excellent yields, cleaner reaction profile and simple experimental and workup procedure.

Ultrasonic irradiation assisted efficient regioselective synthesis of CF3-containing pyrazoles catalyzed by Cu(OTf)2/Et3N

Background

Most of the known approaches to the synthesis of CF₃-containing organic compounds suffer from serious drawbacks. For example the starting materials required for these methods are rather difficult to obtain, or they are fairly toxic and inconvenient to work with and methods for direct fluorination and trifluoromethylation do not always allow the introduction of the CF₃-group at the required position of a molecule.

Results

An efficient and attractive regioselective synthesis of a series of novel pyrazoles containing the trifluromethyl moiety was achieved using Cu(OTf)₂/Et₃N as an efficient catalytic system under ultrasonic irradiation.

Conclusions

Cu(OTf)₂/Et₃N catalyst showed a great advantage over all the investigated catalysts, and the ultrasonic irradiation method offered high yields of pyrazoles in short reaction time compared with classical conditions. gHMBC spectra of the product were used to rationalize the observed regioselectivity.

Synthesis and Antidepressant Activity of Some New 5-(1H-Indol-3-yl)-3-(substituted aryl)-4,5-dihydroisoxazoline Derivatives

The present study refers to the synthesis of new antidepressant candidates using the indole scaffold. In an attempt to identify potential lead antidepressant agents, a number of indole molecules, incorporating isoxazoline, were synthesized by microwave-assisted synthesis. The antidepressant activity of the synthesized compounds(3a–3n)was evaluated by forced swim test in mice and their locomotor activity was assessed using actophotometry. The present paper showed significant antidepressant activity for all compounds of the series and no significant change in locomotor activity of mice. Compounds3dand3jwere found to be potent molecules of this series, when compared with the reference drugs imipramine and fluoxetine. It clearly demonstrated that replacement of aromatic core by appropriate heterocycles such as pyridine and pyrrole on the 5-(1H-Indol-3-yl)-3-(Phenyl)-4,5-dihydroisoxazoline(3a)would generate more potent derivatives. Thus, these compounds can serve as potential leads for further antidepressant studies.

Ultrasonics promoted synthesis of thiazolidinones from 2-aminopyridine and 2-picolilamine

The efficient multicomponent synthesis of thiazolidinones from the reaction of arenealdehydes, mercaptoacetic acid and 2-picolilamine or 2-aminopyridine under ultrasound irradiation are reported. The reaction with 2-aminopyridine needs a Lewis acid catalysis to afford the corresponding 2-aryl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones. All novel compounds were identified and characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra. Applying the sonochemical methodology, two series of heterocyclic thiazolidinones were synthesized in good yields after short reaction times.
