One-pot four-component synthesis of polyfunctionalized 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives was developed by a condensation of aldehydes, malononitrile, diethylacetylenedicarboxylate and aniline in the presence of choline chloride/urea as a deep eutectic solvent (DES)at room temperature.Moreover, an efficient method was reported for the synthesis of highly substituted 4H-chromenes through one-...

Coumarins and their derivatives are important classes of heterocyclic compounds whose synthesis has been the focus of attention of many organic and medicinal chemists. Such an interest in these compounds can be attributed to their variety of bioactivities such as, inhibition of platelet aggregation [1], antibacterial [2], anticancer [3], inhibitor of steroid 5αreductase [4] and inhibitor of HIV...

A series of functionalized 4H-chromenes have been constructed by using a novel FeCl(3)-catalyzed benzylation-cyclization tandem reaction.

The first reported examples of kinetic resolution in epoxidation reactions using iminium salt catalysis are described, providing up to 99% ee in the epoxidation of racemic cis-chromenes.

A three-component cascade reaction of salicylaldehyde, malononitrile/cyanoacetate and nitromethane catalysed by chiral tertiary amino-thioureas was developed, which leads to the production of highly functionalized 2-amino-4H-chromenes in good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities.

a series of 2-amino-4-(nitroalkyl)-4h-chromene-3-carbonitriles were synthesized by an efficient multicomponent reaction in aqueous media using dbu (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene) as a catalyst at room temperature. mild condition, environment friendly procedure and excellent yields are the main advantages of this procedure. the cytotoxic activity of target compounds were evaluated against t...

A linear quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model is presented for modeling and predicting induction of apoptosis by 4-aryl-4H-chromenes. The model was produced by using the multiple linear regression (MLR) technique on a database that consists of 43 recently discovered 4-aryl-4H-chromenes. Among the 61 different physicochemical, topological, and structural descriptors that wer...

Several 2H-chromenes derived from carbazoles were analyzed by electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The 2H-chromenes constitute an important class of compounds that exhibit photochromic activity. The fragmentation pathways of the protonated molecular species [M+H]+ were studied, and main fragmentation pathways of these compounds were identified. Fragmentation pathways of [M+D]+ ions were also ...
