Synthesis of a New Library of Pyrano‐phenazine Derivatives via a Novel Three‐Component Protocol

The pyrano‐phenazine derivatives 6 were synthesized by an efficient procedure using the reaction between benzo[a]phenacin‐5‐ols with the condensation product of an aldehyde with Meldrum's acid in the presence of a catalytic amount of Et₃N at ambient temperature. The procedure is very simple, and products could be separated from the reaction media by simple filtration. High functional‐group tolerance both in the benzo[a]phenazin‐5‐ol and aldehyde moieties, facile reaction procedure, medium‐to‐high yields, and simple separation of the products from the reaction media are the advantages of this route.

Novel Disubstituted Phenylene‐Linked Bis‐imidazole Derivatives: Facile Synthesis and Optical Properties

Six novel disubstituted phenylene‐linked bis‐imidazole derivatives, 3a – 3f , were prepared by a one‐pot, microwave‐assisted method under solvent‐free conditions, in yields ranging from 61.6 to 85.6%. The new compounds were characterized by ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, UV/VIS, and fluorescence spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry, as well as by elemental analyses. The influence of substituents and solvents on the optical properties of 3a – 3f was investigated. It was found that there is little influence on absorption and excitation spectra in contrast to emission spectra. Compounds 3a – 3f exhibit strong fluorescence in solution, their fluorescence quantum yields ranging from 0.27 to 0.96.     

Synthesis of 1,5‐Disubstituted 1H‐Tetrazole Derivatives via a Three‐Component Reaction of Carbodiimides,Isocyanides, and Trimethylsilyl Azide

The three‐component reaction of isocyanides 1 , carbodiimides 2 , and trimethylsilyl azide ( 3 ) occurs at room temperature, and the produced 1,5‐disubstituted 1H‐tetrazole derivatives 4 are formed in 81–98% yields (Scheme 1, Table). The reaction proceeds smoothly and cleanly under mild conditions, and no side reactions are observed.

Synthesis and Mesogenic Properties of Novel Terthiophene Derivatives

To develop novel oligothiophene‐based liquid crystals involving hydrogen bonding, new terthiophene derivatives containing a stearylamide group, N,N′‐distearyl‐5,5″‐dicyano‐2,2′∶5′,2″‐terthiophene‐4,4″‐dicarboxamide (DNC₁₈DCN 3T) and N,N′‐distearyl‐5,5′‐dipropyl‐2,2′∶5′,2′‐terthiophene‐4,4″‐dicarboxamide (DNC₁₈ DP3T), were designed and synthesized, and their thermal behavior examined. Although DNC₁₈DP3T did not exhibit liquid crystallinity, DNC₁₈DCN3T was found to form smectic A phase.     

Multicomponent Approach to Hydantoins and Thiohydantoins Involving a Deep Eutectic Solvent

We report an efficient synthetic strategy to diverse hydantoins and thiohydantoins involving a three‐component reaction with the aid of deep eutectic solvent. Here, N,N′‐dimethyl urea and N,N′‐dimethyl thiourea play a dual role as reactant and reaction medium along with l ‐(+)‐tartaric acid. The three‐component reaction provides an easy access to 5‐amino‐1,3‐dialkyl‐substituted hydantoins and thiohydantoins in good yields.     

Novel Four‐Component Approach for the Synthesis of Polyfunctionalized 1,4‐Dihydropyridines in Aqueous Media

The four‐component reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (=dimethyl but‐2‐ynedioate; DMAD), aromatic aldehydes, and malononitrile (=propanedinitrile) leads to polyfunctionalized 1,4‐dihydropyridine derivatives. The reaction proceeds at room temperature and in the presence of a catalytic amount (20%) of (NH₄)₂HPO₄ as a base in aqueous media.

A new series of 1-alkyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxalic acid amides is described. The reaction of N-((E)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-formylacryloyl) formamidine, an intermediate obtained by Vilsmeier–Haack formylation of acetonitrile with various mono-substituted ureas, provides such compounds in good yields.
