Various methods are discussed leading directly to enantiopure heterocyclic compounds. Asymmetric catalysis with chiral templates involving hydrogen bonds or metal complexes provides efficient access heterocycles. Enzyme can be simplified when one more enzyme activities replaced by a simple photochemical step, especially photoredox catalysis. Chiral induction in reactions performed crystals is h...

The results presented in this account deal with the synthesis of acyclic αor β-aminophosphonates or phosphinates and with the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, where the phosphorus and/or the nitrogen atoms can be embedded in the heterocyclic core, showing new perspectives in bioactive molecules.

Substituted imidazolinones containing heterocyclic carboxylic acids as substituents and possessing herbicidal properties were synthesized by cyclization of 2-amino-2,3-dimethylbutyramide with heterocyclic ethyl dicarboxylates under mild conditions. The use of NaH as base leads to a significant increase in the reaction rate and allows the preparation of the target compounds in high yields.

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Many heterocyclic cores are present in the structures of clinically approved anticancer drugs. Meanwhile, benzothiazoles have been reported as one of the most important heterocyclic scaffolds in previously reported anticancer agents in the literature. Therefore, in this report, a novel series of 2-phenyl benzothiazole derivatives was synthesized, bi...

Most of the organic compounds applied as pharmaceuticals or intermediates utilized in their synthesis contain heterocyclic motifs [...]

We report a one-pot synthesis of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds initiated by the allylation of the formyl group of bifunctional carbonyl compounds accompanying chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselective carbon-carbon bond formation in side chain moieties.

An efficient and straightforward four-component synthetic protocol has been developed to synthesize imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and imidazo[1,2,3-ij][1,8]naphthyridine derivatives incorporating medicinally privileged heterosystems from heterocyclic ketene aminals, aldehydes, diketene, and amines via cascade reactions, including diketene ring-opening, Knoevenagel condensation, aza-ene reaction, imin...

The results of comparison of experimental C1 NQR parameters for a great number of organic and organometallic compounds and estimated ones using ab initio calculations at the RHF/6-31G(d) level were systematized. The NQR frequency changes on going from one compound to another depend, in general, on the changes of populations of the CI atom p„-orbitals in these compounds and, first of all, of pop...

The results of earlier investigations of the carcinogenic action of azo dyes in rats were summarized by Kinosita in 1937 and 1940 (22, 23), and by Hartwell in 1941 (17). Since then much work has been done involving various types of controlled, restricted diets and a theory has been evolved (19) to account for the activity of certain dyes and the inactivity of others. A short review of this work...

A series of new 2-arylimino-3-aryl-5-[5?-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2?-furylidene]-4-thiazolidinones (3a-l) have been synthesised by the condensation of 5-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-furaldehyde 1 with 2-arylimino-3-aryl-5H-4-thiazolidinones 2 in glacial acetic acid. The physical and spectral data of the synthesised compounds are determined. The synthesised compounds have been screened for their in vitro ...
