Aqueous-Phase Synthesis of 2-Aminothiazole and 2-Iminothiazolidine Derivatives catalyzed by Diammonium Hydrogen Phosphate and DABCO

Three-Component Efficient Synthesis of 2-Amino-3-cyano-4H-pyrans Catalyzed by Diammonium hydrogen phosphate in Aqueous Media

Background:

The present method is facile, green and effective for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyran derivatives which are obtained by one-pot three-component condensation reactions of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and methyl acetoacetate using diammonium hydrogen phosphate (DAHP) in aqueous ethanol at room temperature.

Methods:

2-Amino-3-cyano-4H-pyrans were synthesized through a one-pot three-component tandem Knoevenagel cyclocondensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and methyl acetoacetate in the presence of 10 mol% of DAHP as a catalyst under aqueous ethanol medium at room temperature. All obtained structures were confirmed by their physical constant, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy, also elemental analyses for new derivatives.

Results:

Three-component synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyrans catalyzed by DAHP with aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and methyl acetoacetate in aqueous ethanol medium at room temperature was prepared. The achieved derivatives (nine entries) were well synthesized in excellent yields.

Conclusion:

The present method is straightforward, quick, and most efficient green protocol for the synthesis of 2-amino3-cyano-4H-pyran derivatives using highly inexpensive, easily handle and, nontoxic DAHP as an efficient catalyst in aqueous ethanol medium at room temperature.

Trypsin-catalyzed multicomponent reaction: A novel and efficient one-pot synthesis of thiazole-2-imine derivatives

The first Trypsin from porcine pancreas catalyzed a novel one-pot three-component reaction of α-bromoketone, primary alkylamines, and phenylisothiocyanate for the synthesis of thiazole-imine derivatives with high yields (up to 98%) in a short time under mild conditions. The results revealed that Trypsin exhibited excellent catalytic activity and great tolerance for broad substrates. This Trypsin-catalyzed three component convergent method provides a novel strategy for the synthesis of thiazole-2-imine derivatives and expands the promiscuous functions of enzymes in organic synthesis.

An improved one-pot multicomponent strategy for the preparation of thiazoline, thiazolidinone and thiazolidinol scaffolds

A simple three-component protocol towards the synthesis of thiazoline, thiazolidinone and thiazolidinol scaffolds has been designed, and these scaffolds were conveniently synthesized with good yields.
