A simple and appropriate procedure for the synthesis of quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione derivatives from isocyanides, aniline and isocyanate via the Cu-catalyzed intramolecular C-H activation reaction is reported. The advantages of this method are one-pot conditions, accessible starting materials- catalyst, high yield of products, and short reaction times. The structures are confirmed spectroscopically (1H- and 13C-NMR, IR and EI-MS) and by elemental analyses.

Background: This paper reports synthesis, cytotoxic activity, and apoptosis inducing effect of a novel series of styrylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives. Objective: In this study, anti-cancer activity of novel styrylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines was evaluated. Methods: Styrylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives 4a-o were synthesized through a one-pot three-component reaction of 2-aminopyridines, cinnamaldehydes, and isocyanides in high yield. All synthesized compounds 4a-o were evaluated against breast cancer cell lines including MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, and T-47D using MTT assay. Apoptosis was evaluated by acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining, cell cycle analysis, and TUNEL assay as the mechanism of cell death. Results: Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited more potent cytotoxicity than standard drug, etoposide. Induction of apoptosis by the most cytotoxic compounds 4f, 4g, 4j, 4n, and 4m was confirmed through mentioned methods. Conclusion: In conclusion, these results confirmed the potency of styrylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines for further drug discovery developments in the field of anti-cancer agents.

The structures of the major stable plant metabolites of the cytokinins zeatin and 6-benzylaminopurine have been confirmed by synthesis to be 7- and 9-β-D-glucopyranosides. The small quantities of metabolites initially isolated (< 100 μg) precluded assignment of the glucose ring size or configuration of the anomeric linkage so that synthesis of both the furanose and pyranose forms of 7-β-D- and 9-β-D-glucosylzeatin and 6-benzylaminopurine was undertaken which allowed direct u.v., m.s. and t.l.c. comparison with the metabolites. Numerous synthetic routes to the unusual 7-glucosides of the two cytokinins were explored, the most successful utilizing a one-pot pyrimidine ring closure of an imidazole derivative to afford directly in high yield the required 7-glucosides of zeatin and 6-benzylaminopurine.

<p>1-Deoxymannojirimycin (DMJ) has been investigated as a potential anti-cancer therapy due to its specific inhibition of class I α-mannosidase enzymes, which has been shown to trigger ER stress and the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) pathway, leading to apoptosis in human hepatocarcinoma cells. Current methods for the synthesis of DMJ consist of multiple steps and often result in poor yields. The objectives of this research project were to develop a scale-up suitable synthesis of deoxymannojirimycin (DMJ), and to assess the feasibility of telescoping key-reactions to reduce the number of unit operations. Synthetic efforts focused on the key conversion of 1 to 2 have previously involved separate oxidation and reduction steps. In our laboratory; attempts to use hydrogen-borrowing chemistry had taken >48hr and not been achieved in high yield. The highlights of this work were that this conversion was ultimately realised in 95% yield in 24hr, and that the final deprotection of (2) could be telescoped into the process removing reaction-workup and chromatographic steps. The ruthenium catalyst used in the hydrogen borrowing reaction was found to be extremely air-sensitive, with reactions taking place in carefully prepared reaction vessels under an atmosphere of dry argon gas. The catalyst was also found to exhibit sensitivities to materials such as metal needles and polymer tubing, preventing sampling and monitoring of the reaction during synthesis. This study demonstrated that a one-pot synthesis is feasible,compressing the final steps in the synthesis of DMJ in excellent yield. The difficulty arises from the sensitive nature of the ruthenium catalyst, and the extreme care required in the preparation of the glassware and reagents used in synthesis. Many aspects of this development require further investigation, including the sampling, monitoring and quality control of each synthetic step.</p>

Biginelli, an important multicomponent reaction provides an avenue for the synthesis of different biologically active heterocyclic compounds. During the past decade, one pot multicomponent reactions have attracted the attention of organic and medicinal chemists due to high atom economy, time and enery saving convergent nature. The present manuscript reports a simple one pot three component synthesis of 3, 4-dihydroprimidin-2(1H)-thiones from various diversely substituted aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and thiourea using a orange peel powder as a natural catalyst on ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous medium as the solvent. The advantages of this reaction are less reaction time, high yield, easy availability of the catalyst and green nature.
