The development of new methods for linking sugars to heterocycles and peptides is an attractive area of research because glyco-conjugates play important roles in biology and medicine and are indispensable tools for probing several processes. Herein we report a one-pot, three-component sequential procedure for the synthesis of a novel class of glyco-conjugates, i.e. glyco-hydantoin conjugates, i...

An efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of the fluorinated isoquinoline derivatives has been successfully developed for the synthesis of chiral fluorinated tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives with up to 93% ee. This methodology features the use of a hydrochloride salt as well as a catalytic amount of halogenated hydantoin which were vital for the reactivity, enantioselectivity, a...

Preharvest control strategies, to reduce or eliminate pathogenic bacteria in leafy vegetables that may be consumed raw, provide additional food safety protection and shelf life quality extension beyond what is possible achieve with postharvest sanitation alone. The aim of this study was characterize the efficacy effect contact time electrolyzed water (e-water), 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-dimethylhydant...

this paper describes the applicability of 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, as a cheap, stable and commercially available catalyst, in the promotion of the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydro-xanthenes (doxos) via the one-pot condensation of aldehydes and cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. this novel synthetic method has the advantages of high yields, short reaction times, low cost and availabilit...

1,3-Dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBH), as a cheap and commercially available reagent, is efficiently able to catalyze the synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives and 12-aryl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydro[a] xanthene-11-ones via one-pot multi-component reactions. This novel synthetic method has the advantages of low cost and availability of the catalyst, short reaction times, high to excellent yiel...

Two series of fused tetrahydro-β-carboline hydantoin and tetrahydro-β-carboline thiohydantoin derivatives with a pendant 2,4-dimethoxyphenyl at position 5 were synthesized, and chiral carbons at positions 5 and 11a swing from R,R to R,S, S,R, and S,S. The prepared analogues were evaluated for their capacity to inhibit phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) isozyme. The R absolute configuration of C-5 in th...
