An organocatalytic [4 + 2] cascade annulation of salicylaldehydes and 1,3-bisarylsulfonylpropenes has been developed. This protocol enables the efficient straightforward synthesis a new series 3-sulfonyl-2-sulfonylmethyl-2H-chromenes that are useful for exploring pharmacologically valued compounds. Further reductive modifications result in 3-desulfonylated chromene or chromane derivatives. can ...

Silica-bonded n-propyltriethylene-tetramine (SBNPTT) was found as an efficient solid base for the synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromenes. Chromene derivatives were obtained via the three-component condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and dimedone at 80 oC under solvent-free conditions. The heterogeneous solid base showed much the same efficiency when u...

An efficient and green method for the synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]chromene or pyrano[4,3-b]pyrone derivatives is described by using a three-component condensation process of malononitrile, aldehyde, and 4-hydroxycoumarine or 4-hydroxypyrone in [BMIm]BF4-LiCl as an ionic liquid.

Simple primary-tertiary diamines easily derived from natural primary amino acids were used to catalyze the Michael addition of ketones with isatylidenemalononitrile derivatives. Diamine 1a in combination with D-CSA as an additive provided Michael adducts in high yield (up to 94%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99%). The catalyst 1a was successfully used to catalyze the three-component ...

a novel rice-husk-silica supported n-propyl bipyridinium chloride (rhprbpcl) has been prepared. due to the basicity of rhprbpcl, it was decided to evaluate its catalytic activity in the one-pot preparation of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran, dihydropyrano[3,2-c]chromene and dihydropyrano[4,3-b]pyran derivatives. the catalyst was characterized by ft-ir, sem and tga analyses. this methodology offers seve...

A group of novel heterocyclic arylsulfonamide derivatives were synthesized by three steps process using the organic and inorganic catalyst in less solvent at ambient temperature. One out three-steps process, one-pot multiple component reaction reusable catalyst. These compounds reactions proceed through Knoevenagel condensation accompanied Michael addition to obtaining suspicious products. The ...

Over the past two decades a significant increase in fungal infections has been observed (1). More than any other antifungal class, the azoles have been steadily refined and improved upon over the course of almost 50 years. These antifungal compounds are chemically either an imidazole or a triazole group joined to carbon atom as their functional pharmacophore and working through blocking the act...

The assembly of complex spirocyclopentaneoxindoles via a novel organocatalytic iminium-enamine cascade process is reported. Reactions between 3-substituted oxindoles and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by second generation prolinol ethers provided the desired products in high yield with excellent levels of enantioselectivity in a single step.
