Synthesis of a novel class of 3‐(2′‐benzothiazolyl)‐2,3‐dihydroquinazolin‐4(1H)‐ones under solvent‐free and catalyst‐free conditions

A solvent‐ and catalyst‐free one‐pot three‐component condensation reaction approach was developed for the synthesis of a new class of 3‐(2′‐benzothiazolyl)‐2,3‐dihydroquinazolin‐4(1H)‐ones in relatively good yields.     

Regioselective synthesis of 4‐aryloxymethylene‐2,3,5‐trihydrothiopyrano[3,2‐b]indoles by the thio‐claisen rearrangement of 3‐(4′‐aryloxybut‐2′‐ynylthio)indoles

A number of new 4‐aryloxymethylene‐2,3,5‐trihydrothiopyrano[3,2‐b]indoles are regioselectively synthesized in 78‐84% yield by the thio‐Claisen rearrangement of 3‐(4′‐aryloxybut‐2′‐ynylthio)indoles. The endocyclic double bonded products are isolated by introducing electron withdrawing acetyl group at the indole nitrogen and also can be converted to the corresponding exocyclic isomers by deacetylation and subsequent heating.     

Synthesis of an 4‐oxo‐1,4‐dihydropyridinomethylidene substituted 2‐indolinone

The (Z)‐3‐substituted 2‐indolinone 6 was prepared using the aldehydes 4 and 8 unknown up to now and 2‐indolinone.     

Synthesis of some 3‐aryl‐1H‐isochromene‐1‐thiones

A rapid microwave‐accelerated thionation of some 3‐substitued isocoumarins to corresponding 1‐thio‐isocoumarins was achieved employing Lawesson's reagent under solventless conditions.     

An interesting cyclization of N‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐N‐(2‐(Z)‐phenylethenyl)‐cis‐oxiranecarboxamide

Under Lewis acid condition, N‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐N‐(2‐(Z)‐phenylethenyl)‐cis‐oxiranecarboxamide undergoes elegant double cyclizations to give interesting products.     

Chemoselective reaction of formalin with 2‐(5‐substituted‐2‐hydroxybenzylamino)phenols: Synthesis of 6‐substituted 3‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐benzo[e][1,3]oxazines

Reaction of 2‐(5‐substituted‐2‐hydroxybenzylamino)phenols ( 2 ) with formalin in ethanol under reflux has chemoselectively led to 2‐(6‐substituted‐2H—benzo[e][1,3]oxazin‐3(4H)‐yl)phenols ( 3 ) in good yield involving the ring closure of the hydroxyl group of the C‐aryl ring and not that of the N‐aryl ring.     

Microwave induced efficient synthesis of (un)substituted benzaldehyde (5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl)hydrazones using silica‐supported dichlorophosphate as a recoverable dehydrant

(Un)substituted benzaldehyde (5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl)hydrazones were efficiently synthesized by reactions of (un)substituted benzaldehyde thiocarbohydrazones with aromatic carboxylic acids by using silica‐supported dichlorophosphate as a recoverable dehydrant under microwave irradiation. The protocol has advantages of short reaction time, high yield, easy work‐up procedure and no environmental pollution.
