Pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline derivatives have been synthesized and utilized to obtain various new hetero-annulated triazolopyrimidine, containing quinoline, pyran, 1,2,4-triazine and pyrimidine in good yields. Newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by spectral data and elemental analysis. Most of the synthesized compounds showed moderate to weak antiproliferative activity on most cancer cell

7H-Benzo[7,8]chromeno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-9(8H)-amine (6a,b) have been synthesized via hydrazinolysis of the imidates (5a,b). Polysubstituted chromenotriazolopyrimidine (7a-j), (12a,b) and Schiff base (8a,b) derivatives have also been prepared. The new heterocyclic derivatives were affirmed by spectral data. The target compounds have been screened for antibacterial and antifungal activity. Compounds 6a

The isomerization of L-amino acids in peptides and proteins into D-configuration under physiological conditions would affect the physiological dysfunction and caused protein conformational diseases. The presence of D-amino acids might change the higher-order structure of proteins and triggered abnormal aggregation. In order to better understand this phenomenon and promote degradation, we systematically

The extension of the aromatic p‐system of porphyrins is a powerful method to alter their optoelectronic properties. Herein, aryl substituents were fused to porphyrin cores by Scholl oxidation reactions that selectively produced mono‐ and doubly‐fused porphyrins in yields of up to 69 %. Several different aryl substituents attached to the porphyrin were investigated with respect to their reactivity under

Steroidal and triterpenoid saponins are attractive for their wide‐ranging pharmacological properties. The triterpenoid saponins Anemoclemoside A and B are root constituents of the Chinese folk medicinal plant Anemoclema glaucifolium (Ranunculaceae). Both compounds feature an unusual cyclic acetal linkage to the carbohydrate L‐arabinose in its open chain form rather than the typical glycosidic bond

This microreview focuses on the methodologies for the synthesis of 2-pyridones and their biological applications. Various types of synthetic methods reported in the last 6 years (starting from the year 2014 and onward) have been discussed. Functionalization reactions of 2-pyridones have not been taken into account.

A simple and efficient one‐pot three‐component azide‐alkyne cycloaddition of 5‐chloro‐1‐phenyl‐pyrazole‐4‐carbaldehyde with 2‐(prop‐2‐yn‐1‐ylthio)‐5‐((substituted phenoxy)methyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole and sodium azide is reported. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral and analytical data. They were screened for in vitro anti‐inflammatory activity by bovine serum albumin denaturation
