Three-component reactions have emerged as useful methods because the combinationof three components to generate new products in a single step is extremely economical,among the multi-component reactions. A green, simple, efficient, and cost-effective procedure has been carried out by the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinonesin Biginelli’s condensation of ethyl cyanoacetate, aldehyde and urea or thio...

A series of novel monoazo-disperse dyes containing pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine structures were synthesized starting with the coupling reaction between ethyl cyanoacetate and 4-hydroxybenzenediazonium chloride, followed by treatment of the resulting hydrazone product with hydrazine hydrate. The pyrazolohydrazone 6 is then treated with either 2,4-pentandione and enaminonitrile or aryl-substituted e...

The triethylamine promoted three-component reaction of N-(4-nitrobenzyl), N-ethoxycarbonylmethylisoquinolinium bromide, isatins and malononitrile in ethanol afforded spiro[indoline-3,2'-pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines] in good yields and with high diastereoselectivity. The similar reaction of N-cyanomethylisoquinolinium chloride mainly gave complex indolo[2″,3″:2',3']pyrrolo[3',4':4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-a...

The pyrimidine thione derivatives 2a-d were prepared by the reaction of thiourea, ethyl cyanoacetate and several aromatic aldehydes. The acyclic thioglycosides 4a-7d were prepared by the reaction of the synthesized pyrimidine thiones 2a-d with different alkyl halides, whereas the reaction of 2a-d with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl bromide afforded the cyclic thioglycosides 8a-d ...

Aiming for the synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds containing a sulfonamido moiety suitable for use as antibacterial agents, the precursor ethyl {[4-N-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)sulfamoyl]phenylazo}cyanoacetate was reacted with a variety of active methylene compounds producing pyran, pyridine and pyridazine derivatives. Also, the reactivity of the precursor hydrazone towards hydrazine deri...

Hydrazonyl bromides 2a,b reacted with active methylene compounds (dibenzoylmethane, acetylacetone, ethyl acetoacetate, phenacyl cyanide, acetoacetanilide, ethyl cyanoacetate, cyanoacetamide and malononitrile) to afford the corresponding 1,3,4,5- tetrasubstituted pyrazole derivatives 5-12a,b. Reaction of 12a,b with formamide, formic acid and triethyl orthoformate give the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidi...

A series of novel azo-disperse dyes containing alkylhydrazonopyridinone structures were synthesized. 4-Methyl-2,6-dioxo-1-propyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (8) is synthesized by one-pot synthesis using ethyl cyanoacetate, propylamine, and ethyl acetoacetate. Compound 8 is then coupled with aromatic and heteroaromatic diazonium salts to afford the corresponding aryl- and heteroary...

Abstarct: A series of some new pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized via the reaction of ethyl cyanoacetate with thiourea and the appropriate aldehydes namely 2-methyl-benzaldehyde and 2-methoxy-benzaldehyde to give 1a,b. Compounds 1a,b were chlorinated to give the chloro compounds 2a,b then condensation of 2a,b via different reagents gave compounds 3-5. Compound 4b reacted with acetic anhydr...
