Studies on quinoline and isoquinoline derivatives. V. Reaction of isoquinoline 2-oxide with diketene.

The cyclization reaction of ortho-ethynylbenzaldehyde derivatives into isoquinoline derivatives.

In order to elucidate the reaction mechanism of the cyclization between an ethynyl group and an imino group at the ortho-position on an aromatic ring to afford isoquinolines, reaction of 2-ethynylbenzaldehydes under various conditions was examined. It is concluded that reaction proceeds via an ionic process and the isoquinoline 4-hydrogen atom derives from the solvent. In addition, it was found...

Solvent-free Promoted One-pot Synthesis of ٤H-quinolizine, pyrido[٢،١-a]isoquinoline and pyrido[١،٢-a] quinoline Derivatives

This work describes a fast, mild, convenient and simple method for preparing of nitrogen heterocyclic derivatives by MCR reaction under solvent-free condition.

design and synthesis of new isoquinoline derivatives as selective cyclooxygenase-2 (cox-2) inhibitors and their molecular modeling studies

Design, Synthesis and Cytotoxicity Evaluation of New 2-Aryl-5,6-Dihydropyrrolo[2, 1-a]Isoquinoline Derivatives as Topoisomerase Inhibitors

Two set of 2-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a] isoquinolines were designed and synthesized to evaluate their biological activities as topoisomerase inhibitors. Cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds 4a-e and 7a-d was assessed against several human cancer cell lines, including MCF-7 (breast cancer cell), HepG2 (liver hepatocellular cells), A549 (adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithel...
