Abstract:An efficient green approach for the synthesis of 9-heteroaryl-acridine-1,8-dione derivatives (3a-f) was accomplished via reactions of dimedone (1) with various heteroaromatic aldehydes (2a-f) and ammonium acetate through one-pot multicomponent reactions in water under mild conditions using ultrasound irradiation in excellent yields. Of the synthesized compounds, 3d-f were novel and this process presents the advantages of high yields and easy work-up procedures. Spectral analyses were accomplished by FTIR, 1 H … Show more
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.
