Synthesis, in vitro antibacterial and antifungal evaluations of new α-hydroxyphosphonate and new α-acetoxyphosphonate derivatives of tetrazolo [1, 5-a] quinoline

A series of new alpha-hydroxyphosphonate and alpha-acetoxyphosphonate derivatives have been synthesized for the first time of tetrazolo [1, 5-a] quinoline derivatives. Elemental analysis, IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR and mass spectral data elucidated the structures of the all newly synthesized compounds. In vitro antimicrobial activities of the synthesized compounds were investigated against Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis, Gram-negative Escherichia coli and fungi Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. Some of the tested compounds showed significant antimicrobial activity.

Ionic liquid promoted synthesis of bis(indolyl) methanes

Abstract1-benzyl-3-methyl imidazolium hydrogen sulphate [bnmim][HSO4] was found to be an effective catalyst for the condensation reaction of indoles and derivatives with benzaldehydes in microwave irradiation with lower reaction time and higher yields to give bis(indolyl) methanes.

An Efficient Synthesis and Antibacterial Screening of Novel Oxazepine α-Aminophosphonates by Ultrasound Approach

An efficient synthesis of novel α-aminophosphonates by the reaction of quino[2,3-b][1,5]benzoxazepines with triethyl phosphite in the presence of the easily available, inexpensive, and nontoxic catalyst p-toluene sulphonic acid (p-TSA). This method affords the α-aminophosphonates under the influence of ultrasound irradiation in solvent-free conditions, in short reaction times (4–6 min), high yields (80–90%), with improved purity. The synthesized α-aminophosphonates show antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Supplemental materials are available for this article.

Cellulose sulfuric acid: reusable catalyst for solvent-free synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes at room temperature

Abstract Bis(indolyl)methanes were synthesized from indole and aldehydes under solvent-free conditions using cellulose sulfuric acid (CSA) as a catalyst at room temperature. CSA is easily prepared and it was also found that this catalyst could be recovered quantitatively and reused without much loss of catalytic activity.

Water mediated synthesis of various [1,3]oxazine compounds using alum as a catalyst

Abstract A simple, efficient, and practical procedure for the synthesis of various substituted 2,3-dihydro-2-phenyl-1H-naphtho[1,2-e][1,3]oxazines and 3,4-dihydro-3-phenyl-2H-naphtho[2,1-e][1,3]oxazines using KAl(SO4)2 12H2O (alum) as a non-toxic, reusable, inexpensive, and easily available catalyst is described using water as a solvent. These improved reaction conditions allow the preparation of a wide variety of substituted [1,3]oxazines in high yields and purity under mild reaction conditions.

Synthesis and Biological Screening of Novel Thiadiazoles, Selenadiazoles, and Spirocyclic Benzopyran by Ultrasonic and Microwave Irradiation

We describe the synthesis of novel thiadiazole, selenadiazole, and spirocyclic benzopyrans via the semicarbazides 3 and thiosemicarbazides 3 of 2-ethyl-2-methyl-4H-chromen-4-ones 1 by conventional and nonconventional methods. The microwave and ultrasonic irradiation methods form the respective products in excellent yields in very short reaction time as compared to the conventional method. The synthesized compounds were tested for antimicrobial screening against bacteria and fungi show moderate activity. Supplemental materials are available for this article.

Synthesis and In Vitro Antimicrobial Activity of New α-Aminophosphonates via Tetrazolo [1,5-a] Quinoline Derivatives

A series of diethyl (4-fluorophenylamino) (substituted tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinolin-4-yl)methyl phosphonate derivatives has been synthesized for the first time from tetrazolo [1,5-a] quinoline derivatives. Elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectral data elucidated the structures of the all newly synthesized compounds. In vitro antimicrobial activities of synthesized compounds have been investigated against Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis, Gram-negative Escherichia coli, and two fungi Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger in comparison with standard drugs. Significantly, microbiological behavior of these newly synthesized derivatives possesses significant antibacterial and antifungal activity. Supplemental materials are available for this article.

A short synthesis of (±)-cherylline dimethyl ether

Summary A synthesis of (±)-cherylline dimethyl ether is reported. The key steps involved are Michael-type addition, radical azidonation of an aldehyde, Curtius rearrangement, and reduction of an isocyanate intermediate followed by Pictet–Spengler cyclization.
