Acceptorless dehydrogenative condensation: synthesis of indoles and quinolines from diols and anilines.
2021
The use of diols and anilines as reagents for the preparation of indoles represents a challenge in organic synthesis. By means of acceptorless dehydrogenative condensation, heterocycles, such as indoles, can be obtained. Herein we present an experimental and theoretical study for this purpose employing heterogeneous catalysts Pt/Al2O3 and ZnO in combination with an acid catalyst (p-TSA) and NMP as solvent. Under our optimized conditions, the diol excess has been reduced down to 2 equivalents. This represents a major advance, and allows the use of other diols. 2,3-Butanediol or 1,2-cyclohexanediol has been employed affording 2,3-dimethyl indoles and tetrahydrocarbazoles. In addition, 1,3-pro…
A new chiral dimanganese(iii) complex: synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopic, magnetic, and catalytic properties
2016
Two enantiomeric complexes of formula [MnIII2(μ-OCH3)2(R-valBINAM)2]·1.75DMF (1) and [MnIII2(μ-OCH3)2(S-valBINAM)2]·2DMF (2) [valBINAM = 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-bis(3-methoxysalicylideneiminate)] have been synthesized using as a ligand the chiral Schiff bases resulting from the condensation reactions between o-vanillin and the chiral 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diamine. The structures of 1 and 2 which have been solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction consist of neutral dimers, the manganese(III) ions being bridged by two methoxido anions, arising from the solvent, and by two valBINAM2− ligands. Their circular dichroism spectra at room temperature emphasize the occurrence of the exciton coupling…
Bio-Sintering/Bio-Fusion of Silica in Sponge Spicules
2012
The synthesis of siliceous spicules in both demosponges and hexactinellids is enzymatically driven via silicatein. This enzyme exists both intra-spicularly and in the extra-spicular space. It catalyzes the formation of bio-silica constituting the silica lamellae that are formed during the appositional (layer-by-layer) growth of the spicules. The extent of (bio-silica forming) activity of silicatein from the demosponge Suberites domuncula measured in vitro reflects the amount of bio-silica required for the formation of spicules in vivo. It is shown that during growth and maturation of the spicules in demosponges a bio-fusion process occurs that results in an intra-spicular sintering of the s…
ChemInform Abstract: The Reaction of 2,4,5,6-Tetraaminopyrimidine with Chalcones.
2010
The reaction of the tetraaminopyrimidine 1 with the chalcones 2a-f yields, in the presence of catalytic amounts of acetic acid, the 1H-pyrimido[4,5-b][1,4]diazepine derivatives 3a-f. The cyclization process consists of a condensation reaction and a Michael type addition.
A Green Look at the Aldol Reaction
2005
Aldol reactions have been and are widely applied for the preparation of β-hydroxy aldehydes, β-hydroxy ketones or α,β-unsaturated aldehydes or ketones through addition or addition-elimination reactions of aldehydes and ketones. The study of the aldol reaction from the point of view of its greenness must have in mind first of all that a general synthetic method must be based on complete and efficient conversions of well defined selectivity and that greenness is more a term for comparison than an absolute kind of qualification. This comparison, when referred to the aldol reaction, applies here to the diverse modifications of the reaction. Thus, the original poorly selective, but highly atom e…
Regio-specific synthesis of new 1-(tert-butyl)-1H-pyrazolecarboxamide derivatives
2017
Regio-specific and non-regiospecific condensation reactions on 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds rendered 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles. Herein, the control of regio-specificity was a significant improvement in pyrazole research. A high yield acylation of poorly nucleophilic aryl amines, which resulted in mono- or diacylated products depending on the reaction conditions, is described. As a result, a library of potentially bioactive compounds was obtained. Fil: Ruatta Merke, Santiago Matías. Universidad Nacional del Litoral.

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of New Selenazole Derivatives with Antiproliferative Activity
2013
New aryl-hydrazinyl-1,3-selenazole and aroyl-hydrazonyl-1,3-selenazoles were synthesized via Hantzsch type condensation reactions of selenosemicarbazides with α-halogenocarbonyl derivatives, under classical versus microwave heating conditions. Excellent yields and shorter reaction times were obtained under irradiation conditions. The structures of the synthesized compounds were assigned based on spectroscopic data (FT-IR, 1 H-NMR), MS and elemental analysis. Selenazole derivatives were screened for their anti-proliferative effects against two leukemia cell lines (CCRF-CEM and HL60) and three carcinoma cell lines (MDA-MB231, HCT116 and U87MG).

Knoevenagel condensation between benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate in the presence of an equimolar amount of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium dimethyl phosphate ionic liquids is investigated.
Synthesis, biological evaluation, and: In silico studies of novel chalcone: In pyrazoline-based 1,3,5-triazines as potential anticancer agents
2020
A novel series of triazin-chalcones (7,8)a-g and triazin-N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)pyrazolines (9,10)a-g were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity against nine different cancer strains. Triazine ketones 5 and 6 were synthesized from the cyanuric chloride 1 by using stepwise nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom. These ketones were subsequently subjected to a Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction with aromatic aldehydes affording chalcones (7,8)a-g. Then, N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)pyrazolines (9,10)a-g were obtained by cyclocondensation reactions of the respective chalcones (7,8)a-g with 3,5-dichlorophenylhydrazine. Among all the evaluated compounds, chalcones 7d,g and 8g…
Comparison of Alkoxy-substituted 4,4´-Distyrylbiphenyls and the Corresponding 4,4´-Distyrylbenzenes
2008
Abstract Configurationally highly pure (E,E)-4,4´-bis(styryl)biphenyls 2a - e were obtained by Siegrist reactions of 4,4´-dimethylbiphenyl 3 and alkoxy-substituted benzaldimines (4a - e). DSC measurements have indicated different crystalline modifications of these conjugated compounds. The stilbenoid chromophores of 2a - e are compared to the stilbenoid chromophores in the OPV series, which have a similar length of conjugation. The intense fluorescence and the high transparency in the visible region are promising properties for an application of the donor-substituted compounds 2a - e in twophoton absorption (TPA) techniques.
