A one-pot synthesis of various N-substituted 3-amino-thiochromanes from 4-benzyl-2-methyl thiazoline via a thiazolinium salt is described. The obtained 3-amino-thiochromanes are enantiopure, as their precursors derive from chiral 2-aminoalcohols. The reaction involves the formation of a disulfide, which subsequently takes part in an unprecedented intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution.

2-Substituted azetidin-3-ones can be prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities (up to 85% ee) by a one-pot procedure involving the metalation of the SAMP/RAMP hydrazones of N-Boc-azetidin-3-one, reaction with a wide range of electrophiles, including alkyl, allyl, and benzyl halides and carbonyl compounds, followed by hydrolysis using oxalic acid.

New resveratrol (trans-3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene) analogs were synthesized and screened for their in vitro cancer chemopreventive potential using various bioassays relevant for the prevention of carcinogenesis in humans: two assays to detect modulators of carcinogen metabolism (Cyp1A inhibition; determination of NAD(P)H/quinone reductase (QR) activity), three assays to identify radical scavengi...

2-Morpholine-4ylethyl-3H -1,2,4-triazole-3-ones (2a, 2b) were obtained from the condensation between the corresponding ethoxycarbonylhydrazones and 2-morpholinoethanamine. 2a was converted to acetohydrazide (4) via the formation of an ester derivative (3). Treatment of 2a and 2b with several aryl sulfonyl chlorides afforded the corresponding 2-arylsulfonyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-ones (5a-c and 6). Th...

Lithiation of N'-benzyl-N,N-dimethylurea and its substituted derivatives with t-BuLi (3.3 equiv) in anhydrous THF at 0 °C followed by reaction with various electrophiles afforded a range of 3-substituted isoindolin-1-ones in high yields.

Benzyl and chlorobenzyl substituted 1, 3, 4-thiadiazole imine derivatives have been prepared by refluxing aromatic aldehyde imine derivatives and benzyl chloride/ 4-chloro benzyl chloride in ethanolic potassium hydroxide. The structures of the compounds have been determined by spectral and chemical methods. The anticonvulsant activity has been carried out using Karl et al. method. All the repor...

The title compound, C(14)H(17)NO(2)S(2), was synthesized by asymmetric aldol condensation of N-acyl-thia-zolidinethione with acetaldehyde. In the mol-ecule, the thia-zolidine five-membered ring assumes an envelope conformation. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O and intra-molecular O-H⋯O and C-H⋯S hydrogen bonding helps to stabilize the structure.
