A highly practical and efficient preparation of pyrano[3,2-c]pyridone and pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline derivatives was developed via an ionic liquid mediated and promoted multi-component reaction of malononitrile, aldehyde, and 4-hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-one or 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one. The combinatorial syntheses were achieved for the first time without applying extra activation energy at am...

This work described one pot syntheses of polysubstituted 2,6- dicyanoaniline and 2-(3-Oxo-1,3-diarylpropyl) malononitrile derivatives in the presence of MgO nanoparticles (NPs) under grinding conditions and microwave irradiation, respectively. The simple experimental procedure includes shorter reaction times, higher yields, lower cost and environmental friendliness. Other remarkable features ar...

Isocyanates 7 were formed from monoprotected diamines 3 or 6, which in turn can be easily prepared from commercially available N-BOCor N-FMOC-protected amino acid derivatives. Isocyanates 7, formed in situ, could be coupled directly to a solid support functionalized with amine groups or to amino acids anchored on resins using CH2Cl2 as solvent and an 11 h coupling time at 25 °C. Such couplings ...

4-Fluoroprolines are among the most useful nonnatural amino acids in chemical biology. Here, practical routes are reported for the synthesis of the 2S,4R, 2S,4S, and 2R,4S diastereomers of 4-fluoroproline. Each route starts with (2S,4R)-4-hydroxyproline, which is a prevalent component of collagen and hence readily available, and uses a fluoride salt to install the fluoro group. Hence, the route...

Multicomponent reactions are a valuable tool for the synthesis of functional π-electron systems. Two different approaches can be taken into account for accessing the target structures. In the more conventional scaffold approach an already existing chromophore is coupled with other components to give a complex functional π-system. Here, electronically monotonous components can also be introduced...

in multi-step organic syntheses, the protection and deprotection of tetrahydropyranyl (thp) ethers is one of the most frequently used methods. over the years, different methods have been used from various catalytic systems for the protection of hydroxyl groups as thp ethers and their deprotection. herein we have reported that various alcohols and phenols have been efficiently converted to the c...

Nitrogen-centered radical cyclizations onto silyl enol ethers were utilized for the syntheses of protected polyhydroxylated pyrrolidines 2-hydroxymethyl-3-hydroxypyrrolidine and 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-L-ribitol.

Syntheses, structural and magnetic and EPR data are reported for two octametallic V(III) clusters with anisotropic S = 4 ground states arising from strong ferromagnetic exchange interactions.

Syntheses of MUC1 glycopeptides (40-mer and 80-mer) are described. The convergent synthesis was achieved by native serine ligation using side-chain unprotected glycopeptide segments.
