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.     

Convenient way to 5‐substituted 4‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones

Various 4‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐4H‐triazoles with aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic substituents at the C(5) position were synthesized from corresponding esters and thiocarbohydrazide. This method allows the synthesis these heterocycles in a short time and at reduced expenses.     

Studies with enamines and azaenamines: A novel efficient route to 6‐amino‐1,4‐dihydropyridazines and their condensed derivatives

1‐Arylhydrazonopyruvaldehydes 1 react with α,β‐unsaturated nitriles 2 to yield 6‐amino‐1,4‐dihydropyridazines 4 that are converted into pyridazinones 5 via refluxing in an acetic acid/hydrochloric acid mixture and into the ethylidenemalononitrile derivatives 6 on reflux with malononitrile in ethanolic/piperidine solution.     

I2‐catalyzed reactions of schiff base and alkyl aldehyde towards benzo[f]quinoline derivatives

A mild, efficient, and general method for the synthesis of benzo[f]quinoline derivatives via a molecular iodine‐catalyzed reaction of Schiff base with alkyl aldehydes has been described. The structure of 3o was confirmed by X‐ray diffraction study.
