Thalidomide and its derivatives are currently under investigation for their antiangiogenic, immunomodulative, and anticancer properties. Current methods used to synthesize these compounds involve multiple steps and extensive workup procedures. Described herein is an efficient microwave irradiation green synthesis method that allows preparation of thalidomide and its analogs in a one-pot multicomponent synthesis system. The multicomponent synthesis system developed involves an array of cyclic anhydrides, glutamic acid, and ammonium chloride in the presence of catalytic amounts of 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) to produce thalidomide and structurally related compounds within minutes in good isolated yields.

A rapid, improved, and ecofriendly synthesis of thiopyrimidines is carried out via one-pot multicomponent reaction of ethylcyanoacetate, substituted benzaldehydes, and thiourea in presence of ethanolic K2CO3 using microwave irradiation heating method. Excellent yields, shorter reaction time, and easy workup are the major advantageous features of this green protocol. So the application of multicomponent reactions involves the combination of multiple starting materials with different functional groups leading to the highly efficient and environmentally friendly construction of multifunctional drug molecules. The structures of the newly synthesized products were assigned on the basis of IR and 1HNMR spectral data.

AbstractAn one-pot approach was developed for the synthesis of substituted 5,7-dihydro-1,6-naphthyridines and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinolines with moderate to good yields. This pathway is a modified two-step synthesis of Kröhnke pyridine and involves a four-component tandem reaction of N-phenacylpyridinium bromide, aromatic aldehydes, substituted or nitrogen-containing cyclic ketones and a nitrogen source. This multi-component reaction is performed using microwave irradiation heating of the reaction substrates under an environment of NH4OAc/HOAc.
