The ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative allylation of aromatic and α,β-unsaturated carboxamides with allylic carbonates is described. These transformations proceed readily with complete linear γ-selectivity of substituted allylic carbonates.

Abstract Pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine is a privileged scaffold found in many small drug molecules that possess wide range of pharmacological properties. Efforts to further develop and exploit synthetic methodologies permit the functionalization this heterocyclic moiety warrant investigation. To end, series novel 1,3-disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide derivatives have been prepared b...

The use of sonochemistry is described in the organocatalytic enamine-azide [3 + 2] cycloaddition between 1,3-diketones and aryl azidophenyl selenides. These sonochemically promoted reactions were found to be amenable to a range of 1,3-diketones or aryl azidophenyl selenides, providing an efficient access to new ((arylselanyl)phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ketones in good to excellent yields and s...

The title compounds (8) were synthesized through the cyclocondensation of the corresponding N-substituted 4-amino-2-chloro-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxamides (4) with the proper hydrazides, in order to evaluate their anti-inflammatory and anti-aggressive properties. Several compounds 8 exhibited high anti-inflammatory activity (carrageenin-induced paw edema assay in the rat) along with appreciabl...

Polyamine conjugates with bicyclic terminal groups including quinazoline, naphthalene, quinoline, coumarine and indole have been obtained and their cytotoxic activity against PC-3, DU-145 and MCF-7 cell lines was evaluated in vitro. Their antiproliferative potential differed markedly and depended on both their chemical structure and the type of cancer cell line. Noncovalent DNA-binding properti...

3,5- dinitrobenzoyl chloride-pyridine system has been used for dehydration of aldoximes and carboxamides at room temperature

Current researches have showed that N3, N5-diaryl-2, 6-dimethyl -1, 4-dihydropyrine-3, 5- dicarboxamide analogues demonstrate notable anti-tubercular activity. In this study, Hantzsch condensation was used to design and synthesize new analogues of dihydropyridine (DHP). Different diary carboxamides were inserted at positions 3 and 5 of the DHP ring. 4(5)-chloro-2-ethyl-5(4)-imidazolyl moiety wa...

Cleavage of the C-N bond of carboxamides generally requires harsh conditions. This study reveals that tris(amido)Al(III) catalysts, such as Al2(NMe2)6, promote facile equilibrium-controlled transamidation of tertiary carboxamides with secondary amines. The mechanism of these reactions was investigated by kinetic, spectroscopic, and density functional theory (DFT) computational methods. The cata...
