Bio-isosteric replacement is a frequently used tool in medicinal chemistry. While the pharmacological activity is not influenced by the exchange of substituents, the solid-state characteristics and formation of different crystal forms may well be altered dramatically, jeopardizing the processability and safety of the drug compound. In this study we investigate a series of triphenylimidazole (TPI) derivatives as model compounds with the bio-isosteric exchange of only one halogen position (F, Cl, Br, I). Crystallization from two industrially used solvents (methanol and acetonitrile) reveals solvate formation of all TPIs, for which the basic hydrogen bonded motif does not change. The three-dimensional packing depends on the size of the substituent and changes from fluoro- to chloro- and bromo-substitution but remains the same for the larger iodo-substituent. From acetonitrile, only F-TPI and Cl-TPI form an isomorphic channel solvate, which in both cases desolvates reversibly to an isomorphic crystal form. Due to the halogen atom lining of the channels, bromine and iodine are too large to generate a stable packing. This study illustrates the importance of understanding the influence of bio-isosteric substitution on the solid state, in order to best utilize this common tool.

Cross-linked poly (4-vinylpyridine) supported TiCl4 abbreviated as [P4-VP]-Ti(IV) as a new polymeric catalyst was easily prepared and characterized by using the X-ray spectroscopy, EDS, mapping, TGA/DTG and FTIR techniques. This catalyst was used for synthesis of imidazole derivatives via one-pot three-component condensation reaction of benzil, ammonium acetate and aldehydes. This protocol offers advantages such as short reaction time, simple reaction work-up with reusability of catalyst. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

In this work, magnetic nanoparticle-supported sulfonic acid (γ-Fe2O3-SO3H) is used as an efficient catalyst in the synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles in a short time (40-70 min for trisubstituted imidazoles and 30-40 min for tetrasubstituted imidazoles) and high-purity products were obtained (92-98% for trisubstituted imidazoles and 94-98% for tetrasubstituted imidazoles) in simple multicomponent reactions. The structure of these products was confirmed via FT-IR and NMR. Green and recyclable catalysts, eco-friendly and solvent-free conditions, high catalytic activity, shorter reaction time, easy recovery by an external magnet, high purity, and excellent yields are some features of these reactions.

In the process of drug discovery and development, an efficient and expedient synthetic method for imidazole-based small molecules from commercially available and cheap starting materials has great significance. Herein, we developed a TMSOTf-catalyzed synthesis of trisubstituted imidazoles through the reaction of 1,2-diketones and aldehydes using hexamethyldisilazane as a nitrogen source under microwave heating and solvent-free conditions. The chemical structures of representative trisubstituted imidazoles were confirmed using X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. This synthetic method has several advantages including the involvement of mild Lewis acid, being metal- and additive-free, wide substrate scope with good to excellent yields and short reaction time. Furthermore, we demonstrate the application of the methodology in the synthesis of biologically active imidazole-based drugs.

In this study, an efficient hybrid nanocatalyst made of guar gum (guarana, as a natural basis), magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, and copper(I) oxide nanoparticles (Cu2O NPs) is fabricated and suitably applied for catalyzing the multicomponent (three- and four-component) synthesis reactions of imidazole derivatives. Here, an easy preparation strategy for this novel catalytic system (Cu2O/Fe3O4@guarana) is presented. Then, the application of this catalytic system for the synthesis of imidazole derivatives is precisely investigated. For this purpose, ultrasonication is introduced as an efficient and fast method. In summary, the high catalytic efficiency of Cu2O/Fe3O4@guarana nanocomposite is well demonstrated by high reaction yields obtained in the presence of a small amount of this nanocomposite, under mild conditions. Wide active surface area, substantial magnetic behavior, excellent heterogeneity, suitable stability, well reusability, and etc. have distinguished this catalytic system as an instrumental tool for facilitating the complex synthetic reactions.

The present protocol reports the ultrasound assisted synthesis of NiO nanoparticles(NPs) using benzylamine as a base and different types of cyclodextrins (CDs) as capping agents. The use of α-CD, β-CD or γ-CD leads to different morphologies of NiO NPs. In particular, NiO nanosheets obtained using β-CD as the capping agent. The synthesized NPs were characterized by FEG-SEM, TEM, XRD and EDS analysis. They showed high catalytic activity towards synthesis of different trisubstituted imidazoles under solvent free conditions. In addition, NiO NPs could be recycled and reused consecutively up to four recycle runs without much loss of their catalytic activity.

An efficient, eco-friendly and practical oxidation of internal alkynes and primary alcohols as key steps towards the synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is reported. This green synthetic methodology employed an acid and metal-free molecular iodine/DMSO system, to afford a variety of substituted imidazoles in moderate to good yields, with a range of functionalities tolerated. Mechanistic studies revealed two distinct oxidation pathways, which ultimately form the diketone and aldehyde that serve as key intermediates in the multicomponent domino synthesis.

The catalytic potential of pyridine-2-carboxlic acid has been evaluated for efficient, green and solvent free synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazole derivatives 3a–3m. The compounds 3a–3m were synthesized by one pot condensation reaction of substituted aromatic aldehydes, benzil, and ammonium acetate in good to excellent yields (74–96 %). To explore the potential of these compounds against Alzheimer's disease, their inhibitory activities against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were evaluated. In this series of compounds, compound 3m, bearing one ethoxy and a hydroxy group on the phenyl ring on 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles, proved to be a potent AChE inhibitor (102.56±0.14). Structure–activity relationship (SAR) of these compounds was developed. Molecular dockings were carried out for the compounds 3m, 3e, 3k, 3c, 3a, 3d, 3j, and 3f in order to further investigate the binding mechanism. The inhibitor molecule was molecularly docked with acetylcholinesterase to further study its binding mechanism. The amino group of the compound 3m forms an H-bond with the oxygen atom of the residue (i. e., THR121) which has a bond length of 3.051 ?.
