A practical synthesis of N-tosylimines of arylaldehydes

Synthesis of N-tosylimines of arylaldehydes was carried out by the reaction of arylaldehydes and p-toluenesulfonamide in methylene chloride in the presence of trifluoroacetic anhydride as a dehydrating agent.     

Three component condensation of 6-quinolylamine with aromatic aldehydes and cyclohexyl 1,3-diketones

A three component condensation of 6-quinolylamine with 4-bromo-or 4-methoxybenzaldehyde, and 1,3-cyclohexanedione or dimedone gave 12-(4-bromophenyl)-and 12-(4-methoxyphenyl)-9,9-dimethyl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydro-7H-benzo[b][4,7]phenanthrolin-11-ones. The reaction intermediates obtained were N-arylmethylene-6-quinolylamines, 2-arylmethylenebis(1,3-cyclohexanediones), 3-(6-quinolylamino)-2-cyclohexenone, and 5,5-dimethyl-3-(6-quinolylamino)-2-cyclohexenone. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No 6, pp. 877–885, June, 2007.     

Phthalhydrazide immobilized on MCM‐41 as a potent and recoverable catalyst for the synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1‐a]isoquinolines

We present a study on the synthesis, characterization, and application of phthalhydrazide‐functionalized MCM‐41 (P‐MCM‐41) as a novel and efficient heterogeneous basic catalyst. The described catalyst was fully characterized via various techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR). P‐MCM‐41 efficiently catalyzed the four‐component reaction of arylaldehydes, Meldrum's acid, alkyl isocyanides, and isoquinoline in CHCl₃ to prepare pyrrolo[2,1‐a]isoquinolines in good yields.

Visible-light induced cascade radical cyclization of sulfinic acids and o-(allyloxy)arylaldehydes towards functionalized chroman-4-ones

An efficient method for the synthesis of functionalized chroman-4-ones induced by visible light via the radical cyclization reaction of sulfinic acids and o-(allyloxy)arylaldehydes at room temperature was described. The corresponding products were isolated with moderate to good yields. Radical mechanism was proposed for this transformation. Anti-microbial activity of some desired compounds were screened.     

Simple and Efficient Procedure for the One‐Pot Synthesis of β‐Acetamido‐β‐aryl‐propiophenones by Molecular Iodine–Catalyzed Tandem Reaction

Molecular iodine efficiently catalyzes the four‐component tandem reaction of araldehydes, arylmethyl ketones, acetyl chloride, and acetonitrile to afford the corresponding β‐acetamido‐β‐aryl‐propiophenones. The new protocol gives high yields of the products, and the reactions go to completion within 10–15 min on a hot plate at 80–85°C.
