A Borane-Catalyzed Metal-Free Hydrosilylation of Chromones and Flavones

A Piers-type hydrosilylation of chromones and flavones has been successfully realized for the first time using 0.1 mol % of borane catalyst generated in situ by hydroboration of pentafluorostyrene with HB(C 6 F 5) 2 to afford a variety of chromanones and flavanones in 60-99% yields. An attempt for the asymmetric transformation with chiral diyne and HB(C 6 F 5) 2 gave chromanones and flavanones in high yields with up to 32% ee.

An efficient synthesis of flavanones and their docking studies with aldose reductase

A series of flavanone derivatives have been synthesized from 2-hydroxy acetophenone and benzaldehyde using fused calcium chloride in good to moderate yields, and their in vitro aldose reductase inhibitory activity has been tested on aldose reductase purified enzyme from Bovine lens. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited potent aldose reductase inhibitory activity, and the obtained results are supported by the docking studies. Among the tested derivatives, 2, 3, 4-methoxy derivative 19 (IC50 5.88 ± 0.03 μM) exhibited the highest inhibitory activity whereas 2-methoxy derivative 12 showed the lowest, and the remaining compounds exhibited moderate activity with IC50 in the range of 6.09–7.89 μM. The spatial configuration of the most active derivative 19 was compared with pharmacophore requirements of the aldose reductase inhibitor site using a molecular modeling system.

Synthesis, crystal structure and antitumour activity evaluation of 1H-thieno[2,3-c]chromen-4(2H)-one derivatives

A series of 1H-thieno[2,3-c]chromen-4(2H)-one derivatives were synthesised through Knoevenagel condensation of substituted flavanones with thiazolidine-2,4-dione in ethanol in the presence of piperidine. The mechanism of the reaction was proposed. All synthesised compounds were characterised by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS, and elemental analysis. The structure of 2-(3-chlorophenyl)-1H-thieno[2,3-c]chromen-4(2H)-one was confirmed by a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. A preliminary antitumour screening showed that 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-1H-thieno [2,3-c]chromen-4(2H)-one had moderate to good activity against A549, BGC-823, HCT116 and MDA-MB-453 cancer cell lines, and 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1H-thieno[2,3-c]chromen-4(2H)-one displayed similar activity against these four kinds of cancer cells compared with the reference drug.

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to heterocyclic acceptors

Flava Flavanone: Asymmetric conjugate additions to chromones and 4-quinolones are reported utilizing a single catalyst system formed in situ from Pd(OCOCF3)2 and (S)-tBuPyOX. Notably, these reactions are performed in wet solvent under ambient atmosphere, and employ readily available arylboronic acids as the nucleophile, thus providing ready access to these asymmetric heterocycles (see scheme).

Iodine catalyzed one-pot synthesis of flavanone and tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives via Mannich type reaction

A variety of functionalized flavanone derivatives and tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives were achieved under remarkably mild conditions. The combination of good to excellent yields, a simple work-up, and the high compatibility of functional groups makes this an attractive synthetic approach to access flavanone and tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives.
