Furostifoline, a furo[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid, was synthesized in 10% overall yield in four steps from 2-acetyl-3-bromofuran. The key step of this synthesis was the 2-substituted indole formation with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) from 2-(2-propenyl)-3-((2-ethoxycarbonylamino)phenylethynyl)furan, which was easily prepared from ethyl 2-ethynylphenylcarbamate with 3-bromo-2-(2-propenyl)fura...

Aryl-substituted 5-(3-indolyl)oxazoles are readily synthesized in a novel one-pot three-component synthesis consisting of a microwave assisted sequence of Sonogashira coupling, an acid-catalyzed cycloisomerization, and a concluding Fischer indole synthesis. All title compounds are intensely blue-luminescent with large Stokes shifts upon UV-irradiation. The experimental absorption spectra are ra...

The often time-consuming and challenging multi-step synthesis of ligands for metal-organic cages is a limiting factor the discovery application new cages. We report highly efficient copper-free one-pot Sonogashira-type coupling preparation symmetric diarylalkyne on both small large scale; bipyridine- benzimidazole-based self-assembly Co4L6 were synthesized in short reaction times high isolated ...

We have demonstrated a simple and efficient route for the synthesis of a novel imine based tridentate ligand and its Pd-complex to investigate the C-C cross-coupling reactions, that involve column chromatography purification in only one step. The catalytic activity of the newly synthesized catalyst was studied for the Suzuki, Sonogashira and, Heck cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions....

Herein, we describe the synthesis of novel unsymmetrical polycarbo-substituted 4-anilinoquinazolines derived from the 2-aryl-6-bromo-8-iodoquinazolines via one-pot three-step reaction sequences involving initial amination and subsequent double cross-coupling (bis-Suzuki, Sonogashira/Stille or Sonogashira/Suzuki-Miyaura) reactions with different cross coupling partners for the two carbon-carbon ...

this study offers an exclusive class of magnetic nanoparticles supported hyperbranched polyglycerol (mnp/hpg) that was functionalized with citric acid (mnp/hpg-ca) as a host immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. the mnp/hpg-ca/pd catalyst was fully characterized using some different techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (tga), x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microsco...

(E)-1-aryl-2,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)but-1-en-3-ynes readily undergo protodesilylation and subsequent aerobic, copper-free Sonogashira cross-coupling with aryl halides to form (E)-1,4-diaryl-2-(trimethylsilyl)but-1-en-3-ynes. The proposed one-pot, two-step approach allows access the isomers containing substituents in mutual syn positions. resulting 2-silyl enynes can be further converted by proto-...
