A series of giant tris(heteroaryl)methanes are easily assembled by one-pot three-component synthesis by simple reflux in ethanol without catalyst or additives. Diversely substituted indoles (Ar1) react with quinoline aldehydes, quinolone aldehydes, chromone aldehydes, and fluorene aldehydes (Ar2CHO) and coumarins (Ar3) in 1:1:1 ratio to form the corresponding tris(heteroaryl)methanes (Ar1Ar2Ar3)CH along with (Ar1Ar1Ar2)CH triads. A series of new 2:1 triads were also synthesized by coupling substituted indoles with Ar2CHO. The coupling reactions could also be carried out in water (at circa 80 °C) but with chemoselectivity favoring (Ar1Ar1Ar2)CH over (Ar1Ar2Ar3)CH. The molecular structure of a representative (Ar1Ar2Ar3)CH triad was confirmed by X-ray analysis. Model tris(heteroaryl/aryl)methylium salts were generated by reaction with DDQ/HPF6 and studied by NMR and by DFT and GIAO-DFT.

The title compound 4-(2-(4,5-dimethyl-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl)morpholine (DMTPM) was synthesized using a one-pot multicomponent approach. The molecular structure of the compound was charcterized with 1H & 13C NMR, HR-MS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the ground-state, DMTPM molecular geometry was determined using the DFT based on B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and compared to the experimental results. In addition, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map and molecular frontier orbitals (MFO) were performed and the results obtained were compatible with the electronic properties.

A one-pot synthesis of a novel series of chromeno-imidazo-pyridinone derivatives from 3-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]chromones and ethane-1,2-diamine at room temperature under catalyst-free conditions has been successfully developed. This approach involves a tandem aza-Michael addition reaction, a chromone-to-chromanone rearrangement, and a heterocyclization sequence, leading to chromeno-imidazo-pyridinone polyheterocycles. The structure and absolute configurations of the new compounds were elucidated by a combination of 1D- and 2D-NMR analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

AbstractThe ligands 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzyl-(2-thiophene)methylimine (V) and 2-(diphenylphosphino) benzyl-(2-thiophene)ethylimine (VI) were prepared from 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzaldehyde and thiophene amines with very good yields. An equimolar reaction of V and VI with either PdCl2(cod) (cod = cyclooctadiene) or PdClMe(cod) afforded palladium(II) complexes I–IV. The molecular structure of II was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The coordination geometry around the palladium atom exhibited distorted square planar geometry at the palladium centre. Complexes I, II, and IV were evaluated as catalysts for Heck coupling reactions of iodobenzene with methyl acrylate under mild reaction conditions; 0.1 mole % catalyst, Et3N base, MeCN reflux for 8 h, 80°C; isolated yield on a 10 mmol scale with catalyst I (64 %), II (68 %), and IV (58 %). They all exhibited significant activities.

6-Hydroxy-2-methylbenzofuran-4-carboxylic acid was synthesized in two steps, starting from 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate. The product was obtained through a direct thermal one-pot cyclization with propargyl bromide, followed by a base-catalyzed hydrolysis. Its molecular structure was elucidated by means of mono- and bidimensional NMR techniques, ESI-MS, FT-IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
