1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds can be converted to Mannich-type products A or highly functionalized piperidines B in the presence of a catalytic amount of bromodimethylsulfonium bromide (BDMS). The combination of aromatic aldehyde, amine, and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds in the presence of a catalytic amount of BDMS leads to the formation of Mannich-type product A when R is a non-enolizable carbon or an alkoxy group, whereas in cases when R = CH3, the same combination yielded highly functionalized piperidines B. A synthetic study and mechanistic proposal are presented.

Abstract A simple and efficient method for the convenient synthesis of 2-arylbenzimidazole has been described on reaction with o-phenylenediamine and various aromatic aldehydes using cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate as a catalyst. The method is cost-effective, high-yielding, clean, and selective.

The multicomponent reaction of malononitrile, aldehyde and a third reaction partner such as naphthol/4-hydroxycoumarine/2-hydroxynaphthoquinone/kojic acid/enolizable ketone or thiol in the presence of imidazole as an organocatalyst provides very interesting molecular diversity. In an almost neutral reaction medium, this protocol provides easy access to highly functionalized 2-amino-4H-chromenes, dienes and 2-amino pyridines using in situ-generated aryl/alkylylidenemalononitrile derivatives obtained from the reaction of aldehydes and malononitrile along with various nucleophiles under reflux conditions in ethanol. This methodology is useful for the easy access of a wide range of structurally diverse functionalized molecules having potential application in biological systems.

A simple, mild, and highly efficient method has been developed for the preparation of functionalized tetrahydropyridines and β-amino carbonyls from the multicomponent reactions involving in situ imines and vanadium (III) chloride as a Lewis acid. The multicomponent reaction of two equivalents of aromatic aldehyde, two equivalents of amine, and one equivalent β-keto ester in the presence of catalytic amount of VCl3 provides highly atom economic five-component tetrahydropyridines in very good yields. The same catalyst was found useful for the efficient synthesis of a wide variety of β-amino ketones using direct-type Mannich reaction of aromatic aldehyde, amine, and aromatic ketones. The notable advantages of this method are simple procedure, short reaction time and good yields, and applicable to broad range of substrates.Graphical AbstractVCl3catalyzed imine based-multicomponent reactions for the facile access of functionalized tetrahydropyridines and β-amino carbonylsSuman Pal, Lokman H Choudhury and Tasneem Parvin

In this paper, we have described a simple and convenient method for the one-pot multicomponent reaction of aldehydes, malononitrile and thiols in the presence of a catalytic amount of Bronsted base potassium hydroxide for the efficient synthesis of highly functionalized pyridines. The notable features of this protocol are the simple experimental procedure, short reaction time, broad substrate scope and good yields using a catalytic amount of readily available and cheap base. The photophysical behaviours of the synthesized pyridines have been investigated by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy and some of the synthesized substituted pyridines exhibit promising fluorescence quantum yields.

A simple and concise method catalyzed by molecular iodine has been reported for the synthesis of a series of dihydrochromeno[4,3-b]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyridin-6(7H)-ones (1) using a multicomponent domino reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives and 3-aminopyrazoles. The same catalyst was also found useful for the four component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 4-hydroxycoumarin, benzoylacetonitrile and hydrazine hydrate. The notable advantages of this method are: good yields, no column chromatography, environmentally friendly catalyst and applicability for diversity oriented synthesis of substituted dihydrochromeno pyrazolo pyridin-6(7H)-one scaffolds using both three and four component reactions.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been found to be an inexpensive, non-toxic and useful medium for the one pot synthesis of highly functionalized dihydropyridines using multicomponent reactions (MCRs) at room temperature under catalyst free conditions. The notable features of this protocol are: mild reaction condition, applicability to wide range of substrates, reusability of the PEG and good yields. The interaction of the synthesized compounds with pUC19 plasmid DNA was also analyzed. Some of the synthesized compounds showed interesting functional group dependent nuclease activity for plasmid DNA cleavage under physiological conditions.

A series of 2H-benzo[g]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline-5,10(4H,11H)-dione derivatives has been synthesized from the three component reactions of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, aldehydes, and aminopyrazoles in the presence of a catalytic amount of L-proline. This domino reaction proceeds smoothly in good to excellent yields and offers several advantages including no column chromatography, a simple reaction procedure, metal-free reaction conditions and being applicable to a broad range of aldehydes.

Abstract An efficient, atom-economic, one-pot protocol has been developed for the synthesis of highly functionalized dihydropyridines via four-component reactions of aromatic aldehydes, arylamines, malononitrile, and dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of sodium hydroxide in ethanol. This domino reaction proceeded smoothly in good to excellent yields and offered several advantages, including short reaction time, simple experimental procedure, and applicability to a broad range of substrates.
