Abstract: In this study, the viability of a wide range of crystalline aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids as organocatalysts has been investigated for solvent-free Paal–Knorr pyrrole synthesis under microwave activation. Among these potential catalysts, crystalline salicylic acid proved to be a remarkable catalyst because its efficiency remained high even under low microwave power irradiation or a shorter reaction time for the model reaction. The outstanding catalytic activity of salicylic acid allowed the Paal–Knorr cyclocondensation with a turnover frequency up to 1472?h?1 which is unique in the context of a metal-free homogeneous catalysis. The attractive feature of this organocatalyst is its assistance in ultrafast pyrrole synthesis with no risk of metal contamination.

With an intention of identifying chalcone derivatives exhibiting anti-protozoal activity, a cohort of relatively unexplored arylpyrrole-based chalcone derivatives were synthesized in moderate to good yields. The resultant compounds were evaluated in vitro for their potential activity against a cultured Trypanosoma brucei brucei 427 strain. Several compounds displayed mostly modest in vitro anti-trypanosomal activity with compounds 10e and 10h emerging as active candidates with IC50 values of 4.09 and 5.11 μM, respectively. More importantly, a concomitant assessment of their activity against a human cervix adenocarcinoma (HeLa) cell line revealed that these compounds are non-toxic.

The N-Methyl-d-Aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is involved in many neurological and psychiatric disorders including Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to develop a positron emission tomography (PET) ligand to assess the bio-availa
