Five elegant and switchable three-component reactions which enable access to a new series of nitrogen-containing heterocycles are reported. A novel one-step addition of an isocyanide to a hydrazine derived Schiff base affords unique six-membered pyridotriazine scaffolds (A and E). With slight modification of reaction conditions and replacement of the nucleophilic isocyanide moiety with differen...

Several new pryrazolo-pyridazine derivatives (4a-h) were synthesized through multi-step synthesis and evaluated for their antimicrobial activities. In the first step, 6-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridazin-3-one (2) was prepared by reacting 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid (1) with hydrazine hydrate. Then, aryl-aldehydes were reacted with 2 to furnish pyridazinone derivatives (3a-g). Finally...

A series of new 2-[(1-substituted phenylethylidine) hydrazine]-N-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-1-carbothioamides (4a-n) were designed and synthesized to have the pharmacophoric elements essential for anticonvulsant activity. The key step in the synthesis of the title compounds involves the reaction of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole with hydrazine hydrate, substituted acetophenones and phenylisothiocyana...

The bifunctional pyrazolopyridine (2) and pyrano-pyrazole (3) derivatives were prepared by the reaction of 2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one (1) with p-methoxybenzaldehyde, malononitrile in the presence of ammonium acetate or piperidine, respectively. Compound 2 was used as the key intermediate to prepare the pyrazolo-pyrido-pyrimidine derivatives through its reaction ...

Some 5-aryl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazole (I) reacted with maleic anhydride, maleic acid and p-benzoquinone affording 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)succinic anhydrides (II), 2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)succinic acids (III) and 2-(2,5-dihydroxyphenylthio)-5-aryl-l,3,4-oxadiazoles (IV), respectively. Treatment of 2-methylthio-5-phenyl-l,3-oxadiazole (V) with amines gives 2-[(alkyl or ar...

Metal complexes, ML2X2, where M is Mn(II), Co(II) or Cu(II), X = (NO3 –or Cl–), and L is the Schiff base formed by condensation of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde with phenyl hydrazine have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic and spectroscopic measurements (infrared, Raman, X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy). Elemental analysis of the chelates sugge...

4-(2-(4-Halophenyl)hydrazinyl)-6-phenylpyridazin-3(2H)-ones 1a,b were prepared and treated with phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus pentasulphide and ethyl chloroformate to give the corresponding chloropyridazine, pyridazinethione, oxazolopyridazine derivatives 2-4, respectively. Compound 2 reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford hydrazinylpyridazine 7. The reaction of 4-(2-(4-chlorophenyl)hydr...

The synthesis of novel pyrazole derivatives and investigations of their chemical and biological behavior have gained more importance in recent decades for biological, medicinal, and agricultural reasons. Concerning the attempt to synthesize some novel pyrazole and fused pyrazole derivatives from 4-benzoyl5-phenyl-2,3-furandione 1 and various hydrazines or hydrazones, the synthesis of 4-benzoyl-...

Wolff-Kishner reduction reactions were investigated by DFT calculations for the first time. B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) SCRF=(PCM, solvent = 1,2-ethanediol) optimizations were carried out. To investigate the role of the base catalyst, the base-free reaction was examined by the use of acetone, hydrazine (H2N-NH2) and (H2O)8. A ready reaction channel of acetone → acetone hydrazine (Me2C=N-NH2) was obtaine...
