Ytterbium(III) triflate has been utilized as a mild Lewis-acid catalyst for the synthesis of various calix[4]pyrroles by the condensation of pyrrole with different ketones in ionic liquids. The calix[4]pyrroles were obtained in high yield under ecofriendly, economical, and noncorrosive conditions, and the catalyst was recovered and recycled.Key words: calix[4]pyrrole, ionic liquid, ytterbium triflate.

An easily accessible ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]) was synthesized, and characterized using 1H and 13C NMR, and MS. The ionic liquid was demonstrated to be an efficient green solvent for the synthesis of pravadoline, one of non-steroidal drugs. High yield was achieved without the presence of an anhydrous Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction was also successfully carried out using other imidazolium-based ionic liquids, including 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([HMIM][PF6]), and 1-octyl-3- methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([OMIM][PF6]). To our best knowledge, this is the first report in Viet Nam on the synthesis of a pharmaceutical chemical in ionic liquids as green solvents.

A new protocol is developed for the synthesis of N-substituted thioamides, employing arenes and isothiocyanates in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloroaluminate ionic liquid, [bmim]Cl·2AlCl3, as a homogenous Lewis acid catalyst and solvent. The effect of Lewis acidity and the stoichiometry of the ionic liquid on the extent of product formation is studied. Studies reveal that a progressive increase in yields was observed with increasing Lewis acidity, and two equivalents of [bmim]Cl·2AlCl3 was the optimal amount for the reaction. A distinct para selectivity for the incoming thioamido group on activated arenes was observed under ambient conditions.Key words: arenes, isothiocyanates, Friedel–Crafts, ionic liquids, thioamides.

Background: A Lewis acid promoted efficient and facile procedure for one-pot synthesis of a novel series of fluoroquinolone clubbed with thiadiazoles motifs under microwave irradiation is described here. This technique has more advantages such as high yield, a clean procedure, low reaction time, simple work-up and use of Lewis acid catalyst. Objective: Our aim is to generate a biologically active 1,3,4- thiadiazole ring system by using a onepot synthesis method and microwave-assisted heating. High yield and low reaction time were the main purposes to synthesize bioactive fluoroquinolone clubbed 1,3,4- thiadiazole moiety. Methods: Fluoroquinolone Clubbed 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Motifs was prepared by Lewis acid promoted, one-pot synthesis, under microwave irradiation. All the synthesized molecules were determined by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and Mass spectra. The antimicrobial activity of synthesized compounds was examined against two Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa), two Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes), and three fungi (Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus clavatus) using the MIC (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) method and antitubercular activity H37Rv using L. J. Slope Method. Results: Lewis acid promoted, one-pot synthesis of Fluoroquinolone clubbed 1,3,4-Thiadiazole motifs under microwave irradiation is an extremely beneficial method because of its low reaction time and good yield. Some of these novel derivatives showed moderate to good in vitro antibacterial, antifungal, and antitubercular activity. Conclusion: One-pot synthesis of 1,3,4-Thiadiazole by using Lewis acid catalyst gives a good result for saving time and also getting more production of novel heterocyclic compounds with good antimicrobial properties via microwave heating method.
