Photoacylations of 2-substituted 1,4-naphthoquinones: A concise access to biologically active quinonoid compounds

Photochemical acylations of 2-substituted-1,4-naphthoquinones with various aldehydes furnished acylated hydroquinones and acylated quinones in moderate to good combined yields. All reactions are easily performed and open a rapid access to biologically act

Metal-, Photocatalyst-, and Light-Free Direct C-H Acylation and Carbamoylation of Heterocycles

Direct C-H acylations and carbamoylations of heterocycles can now be readily achieved without requiring any conventional metal, photocatalyst, electrocatalysis, or light activation, thus significantly improving on sustainability, costs, toxicity, waste, and simplicity of the operational procedure. These mild conditions are also suitable for gram-scale reactions and late-stage functionalizations of complex molecules, including pharmaceuticals, N,N-ligands, and light-sensitive molecules.

Redox Polypharmacology as an Emerging Strategy to Combat Malarial Parasites

3-Benzylmenadiones are potent antimalarial agents that are thought to act through their 3-benzoylmenadione metabolites as redox cyclers of two essential targets: the NADPH-dependent glutathione reductases (GRs) of Plasmodium-parasitized erythrocytes and m

Diacylation of coumarins by silver-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling

A mild silver-catalyzed decarboxylative acylation of coumarins has been developed by using α-oxocarboxylic acids as acyl sources. This protocol provides an efficient and straightforward access to aroyl substituted coumarins in moderate to excellent yields with good selectivities. Furthermore, the reaction conditions were also applicable to quinolinones and naphthoquinones, affording the corresponding acylated heterocyclic compounds.
