Oxidative transformations of the aldehydes, ketones, and their azomethine derivatives such as hydrazones, Schiff bases, azines, and oximes are presented and discussed. The oxidants used have been hydrogen peroxide in the presence of selenium compounds as catalysts, peroxycarboxylic acids, and eerie ammonium nitrate. Some of reported reactions have practical value in the synthesis of phenols, es...

Aldehyde phenyl hydrazones 2a-i undergo oxidative dehydrogenation with Chloramine-T to give nitrile imines, which are trapped in situ by ethyl oleate 1 to afford 8-(5-Aryl-4-octyl-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2Hpyrazol-3-yl)-octanoic acid ethyl esters 3a-i in good yield. The structures of the cycloadducts were confirmed by spectral studies and elemental analysis.

A number of new substituted 1,2,4-triazole {[(1,2,4-triazolyl)ethyl]tetrazolyl} derivatives, their sugar hydrazones, and their acyclic C-nucleoside analogues were synthesized and tested for their antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis (Gram-positive), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative), and Streptomyces species (Actinomycetes). The synthesized compounds displayed different degrees...

A novel direct transformation of hydrazones to acyloxylated pyrazoles by copper-catalyzed regioselective olefinic C(sp(2))-H bond cycloamination and acyloxylation was performed under mild conditions, which combines the formation of the pyrazole skeleton and installation of an acyloxyl group in a single step, using facile carboxylic acids as the acyloxylation reagents.

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.

Background: Pyrazole is a simple aromatic ring an organic compound of the heterocyclic series that characterized five-membered ring structure which comprises located adjacent two nitrogen atoms and three carbon atoms. In recent years interest in the pyrazole chemistry excessively has increased due to many a wide range of properties. Because they have a wide range of specific properties such as ...

New (tetrazol-5-yl)methylindole derivatives were synthesized from 2-phenylindole. Furthermore, the sugar acetyl hydrazones of the tetrazole derivatives as well as their derived acyclic C-nucleoside analogs were prepared. The synthesized compounds were studied for their anticancer activity against human liver carcinoma cell line (HepG2) and the results showed that arylidine substituted tetrazole...

Cyclic hydrazones are efficient ketyl radical acceptors in reductive coupling cyclizations mediated by samarium diiodide, affording cyclic amino alcohols with controlled stereochemistry at the new aminated stereocenter. This approach has been successfully applied to the stereoselective synthesis of a fully functionalized trehazolin cyclitol starting from D-glucose, where the required cyclic hyd...
