A green and efficient protocol for the synthesis of 3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-9-aryl-1,8-dioxooctahydroxanthene derivatives via cyclocondensation of 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of 10-molybdo-2-vanadophosphoric acid under solvent-free conditions has been described. The 10-molybdo-2-vanadophosphoric acid was prepared and characterized by ...

Pyomelanin is a reddish-brown pigment that provides bacteria and fungi protection from oxidative stress, and is reported to contribute to infection persistence. Production of this pigment can be inhibited by the anti-virulence agent 2-(2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione (NTBC). The Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate DKN343 exhibited high levels of resistance to NTBC, an...

ABSTRACT: The resistance of Echinochloa crus-galli (barnyardgrass) to cyhalofop-p-butyl has already been confirmed in rice fields Santa Catarina, Brazil. However, it is not known if this affects other ACCase inhibitors. This study evaluated the occurrence cross-resistance biotypes from main rice-growing regions Catarina research was conducted a greenhouse, using completely randomized design wit...

An efficient, recyclable and environmental-friendly synthetic route to polyhdroquinoline derivatives have been developed via multi-component one-pot Hantzsch reaction of various aromatic aldehyde, 2 equivalents of 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (dimedone), ethyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate using nano magnesium oxide as a catalyst in ethanol under reflux condition. Reaction with 4-chlor...

ABSTRACT Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone supported chlorosulfonic acid ([PVPP-SO3H]+Cl-) was synthesized and evaluated as a recoverable catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of hexahydroquinolines by reaction of arylaldehydes, dimedone (5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione) or 1,3-cyclohexanedione, ethylacetoacetate and ammonium acetate in high to excellent yield in ethanol at 70 °C. The [PVPP-SO3H]+Cl- cat...

The preparation of trans-dihydrofurans has been achieved by a one-pot condensation reaction of 4-bromophenacyl bromide, aromatic aldehydes and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione using biosynthesized CuO nanoparticles under reflux conditions in ethanol. CuO nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were prepared using extractof leaves of Ajuga chamaecistus Subsp. Scoparia. The key advant...
