Precocene Analogues, Deuteration A convenient route for the preparation of title compounds from benzopyran-4-one (1) and its corresponding 3,3-H2 deuterated analogue (2) is reported. Treatment of 1 or 2 with lithium aluminum deuteride followed by dehydration afforded, respectively, 4-H precocene (3c) or 3,4-H2 precocene (3b). Likewise, reduction of 2 with lithium aluminum hydride and subsequent...

6-Aminocoumarin on treatment with oxalyl chloride gives coumarinyl-6-isocynate (1a-c) which on treatment with glycine gives 1H-3-[2'-oxo-2'H-benzopyran-6'-yl]-5-imidazolidine-2, 4-dione (2a-c). (2a-c) when refluxed with o-chlorobenzaldehyde, m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde and 3-nitrobenzaldehyde separately gives 1H-5-(2"-chlorobenzylidene)-3-(2'-oxo-2'H-benzopyran-6'-yl) imida...

One new homoisoflavonoid, (3E)-2,3-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxy-3[(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methylene]-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one and four naturally new analogues, (3E)-3-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethylene)-2,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, (3E)-3-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethylene)-2,3-dihydro-7-methoxy-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, (3E)-2,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-3-[(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methylene]-4H-1-ben...

Phenolic compounds present in Lolium multiflorum Lam. were isolated and characterized. Significant differences in their distribution were found, in shoots and roots of plants with (Lmþ) and without (Lm ) endophyte association, grown with (Micþ) and without (Mic ) mycorrhizal fungi Glomus intraradices, indicating a systemic effect of these microorganisms on the phenolics metabolism of L. multifl...

In the title compound, C(19)H(18)O(6), also known as 3,4',5,7-tetra-methoxy-flavone, the dihedral angle between the benzopyran-4-one group and the attached benzene ring is 11.23 (8)°. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (01) by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which generate R(...

Novel palladium(II) complexes (4-6) have been synthesized from the reaction of (E)-3{[(diethoxythiophosphoryl)-methylhydrazone]-methylene}-4-hydroxy-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one (1), E)-3-{[(dimethoxythiophosphoryl)-methylhydrazine]-methylidene}-3,4-dihydro-2H-1- benzopyran-2,4-dione (2) and (E)-3-{[(diethoxythiophosphoryl)-hydrazone]-methylene}- 4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (3), respectively, with PdCl2(PhC...

In this study, catalyst of rutile titanium dioxide nanoparticles (rTiO2-NP) has been investigated for the removal and reduction of unburned hydrocarbons as benzopyran. To evaluate and calculate the thermodynamic properties of this aim, pollutants are closed to the nanoparticles and converted them into other products and the carbon dioxide molecules are simulated in the 12th steps. The geometric...

Synthesis of 4-[(2/4-chloro-/2,3-dichloro-/2/4-bromo-/2,4-dinitro-/4-nitrophenyl) anilinemethyl]6-t-butyl-2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones have been carried out. Synthesized compounds were characterized by 1HNMR, IR and other physical and analytical data. All of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antifungal activity against Aspergillus awamori and Sclerotium rolfsii and antibacterial acti...

Inhibitors of insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) improve memory and are being developed as a novel treatment for memory loss. In this study, the binding of a class of these inhibitors to human IRAP was investigated using molecular docking and site-directed mutagenesis. Four benzopyran-based IRAP inhibitors with different affinities were docked into a homology model of the catalytic site of...

The molecular mechanisms underlying the actions of K channel openers (KCOs) on KATP channels were studied with the patch clamp technique in excised inside-out patches from frog skeletal muscle fibers. Benzopyran KCOs (levcromakalim and SR 47063) opened channels partially blocked by ATP, ADP, or ATP gamma s, with and without Mg2+, but they had no effects in the absence of internal nucleotides, e...
