A simple and practical method has been developed for the regioselective nitrosylation of imidazopyridines via C(sp(2))-H bond functionalization using tert-butyl nitrite under mild reaction conditions in a short time. A library of 3-nitrosoimidazopyridines with broad functionalities was synthesized in near quantitative yields. The present protocol is also applicable to imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole.
The visible light-mediated C-3 alkoxylation of imidazopyridines with alcohols has been achieved using rose bengal as an organic photoredox catalyst at room temperature. Widely abundant air acts as the terminal oxidant that avoids the use of a stoichiometric amount of peroxo compounds. A wide range of functional groups could be tolerated under the reaction conditions to produce C(sp)-H alkoxylated products in high yields.
Schiff bases of isatin with aminothiazole, its N-mannich bases and Spiro isatin derivatives were synthesized. Their chemical structures were confirmed by Infrared, 1H-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance data and elemental analysis. Antimicrobial evaluation was performed by the agar diffusion method against four pathogenic bacteria and two pathogenic fungi. Anti-inflammatory activity was tested by carragenin-induced rat paw edema and compounds were evaluated for analgesic action by the acetic acid-induced writhing method; Compounds Aa, Ab and A5, A6 were found to be active against bacteria and fungi. The compounds A3, A6, Aa and Ab showed anti-inflammatory activity, having a percentage protection value of 34.69, 32.65, 38.77 and 36.73 as compared with that of indomethacin, with % protection of 46.93. Similarly, the compounds Aa, Ab and A6 showed analgesic activity, with % protection of 67.51, 64.78 and 49.81 as compared with the standard with % protection of 79.56.
The metal‐free sodium persulfate mediated direct selenylation of arenofurans with diaryl diselenides at room temperature was developed, and the products were obtained in high yields. The reaction was found to be applicable to a variety of naphthofurans, benzofurans, and furocoumarins. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the metal‐free direct selenylation of arenofurans. The experimental results suggest that the reaction proceeds through an electrophilic substitution pathway.
A simple, efficient, and practical method for the phenylselenylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines via electrophilic substitution employing readily available phenylselenium bromide has been developed in aqueous media at room temperature.
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.
