Oxindole derivatives 3-25 have been synthesized from commercially available oxindole by refluxing with different aromatic aldehydes in good yields. Their in vitro antiglycation potential has been evaluated. They showed a varying degree of antiglycation activity with IC50 values ranging between 150.4 - 856.7 µM. 3-[(3-Chlorophenyl)methylidene]- 1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one (IC50 = 150.4 ± 2.5 µM) is the most active compound among the series, better than the standard rutin with an IC50 value 294.5 ± 1.50 µM. The structures of the compounds were elucidated by 1H-NMR and mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. A limited structure-activity relationship has been developed.
SummaryHypervalent iodine(III)/TEMPO-mediated oxidation of various aliphatic, aromatic and allylic alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds was successfully achieved by using microreactor technology. This method can be used as an alternative for the oxidation of various alcohols achieving excellent yields and selectivities in significantly shortened reaction times.
An efficient conversion of aliphatic and aromatic alcohols or aldehydes into the corresponding primary amides was successfully achieved by using flow chemistry. Excellent yields were obtained in very short reaction times, and thus this method offers an efficient alternative to traditional methods for amide formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
