The mechanism and stereoselectivity of the aziridination reaction between guanidinium ylide and a series of para-substituted benzaldehydes have been studied by using density functional theory methods. The mechanistic details and analyses of the key elementary steps involved in (a) the addition of nitrogen ylide to benzaldehydes and (b) subsequent fragmentation of the resulting oxaspirocyclic in...

The reaction of o-aminophenol with para hydroxy and methoxy substituted benzaldehydes yielded two Schiff bases. These bases functioning precursors were turned into palladium complexes by treating acetate. structural formulas based on spectral methods (elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy QTOF-LC/MS spectroscopy) suggested for obtained both complexes. According to the charact...

The synthesis of 2-benzylamino-8-methoxy-4H-chromene-3-carbonitriles 7(a-e) has been realized in four steps, via reductive amination from the 2-amino-8-methoxy-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile 4 as key intermediate platform with para- and meta-substituted benzaldehydes 5(a-e), good overall yields. physicochemical properties also their aldimines 6(a-e) precursors have determined using Swiss ADME serve...

A series of 2-(p-substituted benzylidene)-3-(5-ethyl-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-2-yl) thiazolidin-4-ones were synthesized by the reaction of Schiff’s bases of N-(p-substituted benzylidene)-5-ethyl-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole-2-amines with thioglycolic acid in 1, 4-dioxane as solvent and studied for their in vitro antibacterial activity. Reaction of thiosemicarbazide with propanoic acid in presence of concentra...

Thiazolidine-4-one substituted 1, 2, 4triazole and benzofuran heterocyclic have received considerable attention during last two decades as they are endowed with variety of biological activities and have wide range of therapeutic properties. A literature survey indicates that benzofuran derivatives possess different pharmacological and biological activities, of which the most potent is anti-micr...

Chemoselectivity is a cornerstone of catalysis, permitting the targeted modification of specific functional groups within complex starting materials. Here we elucidate key structural and electronic factors controlling the liquid phase hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde and related benzylic aldehydes over Pt nanoparticles. Mechanistic insight from kinetic mapping reveals cinnamaldehyde hydrogenatio...
