An efficient microwave‐assisted synthesis furo[3,4‐b]‐[4,7] phenanthroline and indeno[2,1‐b][4,7]phenanthroline derivatives in water

A series of furo[3,4‐b][4,7]phenanthroline and indeno[2,1‐b][4,7]phenanthroline derivatives were synthesized via a three‐component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 6‐aminoquinoline and either tetronic acid or 1,3‐indanedione in water, under microwave irradiation without use of any catalyst. This green procedure offers several advantages including operational simplicity, clean reaction, and increased safety for small‐scale high‐speed synthesis.     

Microwave assisted synthesis of thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]‐triazoles containing 1,8‐naphthyridine moiety

A simple and efficient protocol for the synthesis of 5‐aryl‐2‐(2‐substituted‐1,8‐naphthyridin‐3‐yl)‐thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazoles ( 4 ) is achieved by cyclocondensation of 3‐(2‐substituted‐1,8‐naphthyridin‐3‐yl)‐1,2,4‐triazoles ( 3 ) with α‐halogenoketones in anhyd. methanol under microwave irradiation. The products are obtained in good yields and in a state of high purity.     

Synthesis of α‐[5‐(5‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐imidazolylthio]acetic acids

The paper describes synthesis and antituberculosis activity of α‐[5‐(5‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl)‐imidazol‐2‐ylthio]acetic acids ( 5a,b ). The compounds were tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv in comparison to rifampicin. Compounds exhibited low activity (MIC ≤ 6.25 μg/ml, % inhibition ≥ 24).     

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.     

Regiospecific synthesis of 5‐(1H‐indol‐2‐yl)‐1‐ and 2‐methyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐2H‐indazole isomers

A regiospecific approach to each N‐methyl‐5‐(1H‐indol‐2‐yl)‐6,7‐dihydro‐2H‐indazole isomer is reported. The 1‐methyl isomer 1 was prepared from 5‐bromo‐1‐methyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H‐indazole 3 and indole‐2‐boronate 5 by palladium catalyzed Suzuki coupling. The 2‐methyl regioisomer 2 was synthesized via addition of lithium (1‐carboxylato‐1H‐indole‐2‐yl)lithium 6 with 2‐methyl‐2,4,6,7‐tetrahydro‐indazol‐5‐one 8 followed by acid catalyzed dehydration.     

The synthesis of a linear tröger's base derived from naphthalene: 7H‐15H‐6,14‐methanodinaphtho[2,3‐b:2′,3′‐f][1,5]diazocine

The title compound 3 was prepared in four steps from commercial 3‐amino‐2‐naphthoic acid in an overall 75 % yield. Attempts to use the same approach in the case of 2‐aminonicotinic acid methyl ester failed. All the compounds were characterized by NMR.     

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.     

Preparation of 2‐(1H‐pyrazol‐5‐yl)benzenesulfonamides from polylithiated C(α),N‐carbo‐tert‐butoxyhydrazones and methyl 2‐(aminosulfonyl)benzoate

Select C(α), N‐carbo‐tert‐butoxyhydrazones were dilithiated with excess lithium diisopropylamide followed by condensation with methyl 2‐(aminosulfonyl)benzoate, acid cyclization, hydrolysis, and decarboxylation to afford new 2‐(1H‐pyrazol‐5‐yl)benzenesulfonamides, [NH‐pyrazolyl‐ortho‐benzene‐sulfonamides].     

Synthesis and characterization of some novel 2‐{2‐[1‐(3‐substituted‐phenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl‐] ethyl}‐1‐substituted‐1H‐benzo [d] imidazole derivatives

Synthesis of some novel 2‐{2‐[1‐(3‐substitutedphenyl)‐1H‐1,2, 3‐triazol‐4‐yl‐]ethyl)‐1H‐benzo[d]‐imidazole derivatives, by the condensation of o‐phenylenediamine with 3‐(1‐(3‐substituted‐phenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl) propanoic acid and then subsequent reactions with different substituted alkyl halides as electrophiles are mentioned. The synthesized compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, EI‐MS and IR spectroscopic techniques.
