α-Enone 1, reacts with hydrazines, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, thiourea, diethylmalonate, malononitrile ethyl cyanoacetate to give the corresponding indazole, oxime, isoxazole, quinazoline, chromene and quinoline derivatives. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by micro analytical and spectral data. The antimicrobial and the antitumor activities of some of the synthe...

In the presence of triethylamine as catalyst, the one-pot four-component reactions of arylamines, methyl propiolate, isatin and malononitrile afforded the functionalized spiro[indoline-3,4'-pyridine] derivatives in good yields. Similar reactions with ethyl cyanoacetate successfully afforded the functionalized spiro[indoline-3,4'-pyridines] and spiro[indoline-3,4'-pyridinones] as the main produc...

Gold(III)-catalysed glycosylation reaction has been developed by employing a new and easily accessible leaving group synthesized from ethyl cyanoacetate. Several nucleophiles like alcohols, thiols, allyltrimethylsilane, trimethylsilyl azide and triethylsilane have been reacted to make the corresponding glycosides in good yields and with marginal to excellent α-selectivity.

A variety of different compounds of fused uracils were prepared simply by the heating of 6-hydrazinyl-1-methyl-, 6-hydrazinyl-1-propyl-, or 6-hydrazinyl-1,3-dipropyluracil under reflux with ninhydrin, isatin, benzylidene malononitrile, benzylylidene ethyl cyanoacetate, benzil, and phenacyl bromide derivatives. The newly synthesized compounds were completely screened for antimicrobial and antitu...

6-Formyl-7-hydroxy-5-methoxy-2-methylchromone on bromination yields the 8-bromo deriva­ tive or the 8-bromo-6-formyl-5,7-dihydroxy derivative depending on the reaction condition. Cyclization of both leads to the corresponding 3-acetyl-, 3-benzoyl-, 3-carboxamido-, 3-carbethoxybenzodipyran derivatives. The 3-acetylbenzodipyran derivative when treated with ethyl acetoacetate or ethyl cyanoacetate...

Tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) was found to be an efficient phase-transfer catalyst for the synthesis of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines by one-pot reaction of 6-aminouracils, aromatic aldehydes, and malononitrile or ethyl cyanoacetate in water under ultrasonic irradiation. The advantages of this method are the use of an inexpensive and readily available catalyst, short reaction time, easy work...

zrp2o7 nanoparticles (nps) as an efficient catalyst have been used for the preparation of 1,6-diamino-2- oxo-4-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile derivatives via one-pot coupling of hyrazine hydrate, ethyl cyanoacetate, malononitrile and aromatic aldehydes under reflux conditions in ethanol. using this method we obtained low reaction times, easy isolation of the targeted molecules, e...

A novel series of cyanopyridinyl tetrahydronaphthalene incorporated with different heterocycles were synthesized. The key compounds 2a,b were condensed with chloroacetone and ethyl chloroacetate to give 3a,b and 4a,b, respectively. Also condensation of 4a,b with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazide 5a,b. Reaction of 5b with different isothiocyanates gave the corresponding thiosemi...
