Several multicomponent synthetic approaches were elaborated for plenty of novel nitrogen or oxygen heterocycles containing a phosphonate or a phosphine oxide moiety. All multicomponent reactions were optimized through a model reaction in respect of the heating mode, molar ratio of the starting materials, atmosphere, catalyst, temperature, reaction time and solvent applied, and then, the extended preparation of small libraries of structurally-related compounds was performed. Most of the reactions could be considered as “green syntheses”, as they were carried out in the absence of any catalyst and/or solvent using microwave (MW) irradiation or even at ambient temperature. The scaling-up of a MW-assisted synthesis was also elaborated in a continuous flow MW system. Altogether more than 150 heterocyclic organophosphorus compounds were synthesized, among them several derivatives showed moderate or promising activity against the HL-60 cell line and Bacillus subtilis bacteria.
A new method for the synthesis of 3-oxoisoindolin-1-ylphosphine oxides bearing same or different substituents on the phosphorus atom is described. The one-pot three-component reaction of 2-formylbenzoic acid, primary amines and...
A new approach for the preparation of (2-amino-3-cyano-4H-chromen-4-yl)phosphonate derivatives is described. The multicomponent reaction of salicylaldehydes, malononitrile and dialkyl phosphites catalyzed by pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDTA) provided the bicyclic derivatives in high...
The synthesis of novel 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one-phosphonates was elaborated by the microwave (MW)-assisted three-component Biginelli reaction of β-ketophosphonates, aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes and urea derivatives. The condensation was optimized on a selected model reaction in respect of the reaction parameters, such as the heating method, the type of the catalyst and solvent, the temperature, the reaction time and the molar ratio of the starting materials. The fast and solvent-free MW-assisted procedure was then extended for the preparation of further new 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one-phosphonate derivatives starting from different aromatic aldehydes, β-ketophosphonates and urea derivatives to prove the wide scope of the process. As a novel by-product of the Biginelli-type synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one-phosphonates, the 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-4-phenyl-6-styryl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one was also isolated and characterized. Our MW-assisted method made also possible the condensation of aliphatic aldehydes, diethyl (2-oxopropyl)phosphonate and urea, which reaction was previously reported to be impossible in the literature.
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.
