RESUMEN
Herein, we present the first, one-step, direct synthesis of unsymmetric phosphorotrithioates through a process involving sequential coupling of 1,1-dichloro-N,N-diethylphosphanamine with thiols and sulfenyl chloride. This method showcases excellent functional group tolerance, substrate compatibility, and mild reaction conditions, offering a streamlined approach for the challenging phosphorotrithioate synthesis. Additionally, the applicability of this method can be extended to the synthesis of mixed phosphoroselenodithioates.
RESUMEN
Herein we report the mild and efficient synthesis of 4-phenoxyquinazoline, 2-phenoxyquinoxaline, and 2-phenoxypyridine derivatives from the starting materials viz. quinazolin-4(3H)-one, quinoxalin-2(1H)-one, and pyridin-2(1H)-one and aryne generated in situ from 2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl trifluoromethanesulfonate and cesium fluoride. This synthetic methodology gives a new environmentally benign way for the preparation of several unnatural series of 4-phenoxyquinazoline, 2-phenoxyquinoxaline and 2-phenoxypyridine compounds with high yields and broad substrate scope.
RESUMEN
Herein, we report a base-free malononitrile activated condensation of 3-methylquinoxaline-2(1H)-one (3MQ) 1 with aryl aldehydes 3a-3ad for synthesis of styrylquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones (SQs) 4a-4ad with excellent yields. In this reaction, malononitrile activates the aldehyde via Knoevenagel condensation towards reaction with 3MQ 1 and gets liberated during the course of reaction to yield the desired SQs 4a-4ad. The SQs were evaluated for in vitro cholinesterase inhibition and 4n was found to display a mixed type of inhibition of AChE, which was supported by molecular modelling studies. This study has led to the discovery of a new chemotype for cholinesterase inhibition which might be useful in finding a remedy for Alzheimer's disease.
