Continuous flow synthesis of diaryl ketones by coupling of aryl Grignard reagents with acyl chlorides under mild conditions in the ecofriendly solvent 2-methyltetrahydrofuran

An efficient continuous flow sequential synthesis of diaryl ketones was achieved by coupling of aryl Grignard reagents with acyl chlorides in the bio-derived “green” solvent 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) under mild reaction conditions (ambient temperature, 1 hour), allowing a safe and on-demand generation of 2-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionitrile with a productivity of 3.16 g hour?1

Method of utilizing continuous flow microreactor to synthesize benzophenone derivative

The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method of utilizing a continuous flow microreactor to synthesize a benzophenone derivative. The methodincludes: using aryl Grignard reagent and acyl chloride as raw materials; at normal temperature, continuously synthesizing the benzophenone derivative in the microreactor; recycling a reaction solvent2-methyl tetrahydrofuran. Problems of environmental pollution and reaction operation safety caused by the fact that conventional Fridel-Crafts reaction is excessively dependent on reagents like aluminum trichloride, ferric trichloride and zinc dichloride are avoided, the defect that novel catalytic processes are expensive in catalytic reagent and harsh in operation condition is made up, and continuous synthesis of a medical intermediate ketoprofen nitrile is realized efficiently. The method has the advantages of high operation convenience, high reaction safety, high yield, high efficiency andreaction solvent reusability and is environment-friendly and efficient.

Oligothiophene-linked bisnaphthopyrans: Sequential and temperature- dependent photochromism

Photochromic bisnaphthopyrans linked with oligothiophenes were synthesized and their photochromic behavior studied. Sequential and temperature-dependent photochromism was observed in the oligothiophene linked bisnaphthopyrans. The kinetics of photo and thermal processes in bisnaphthopyrans in comparison with naphthopyrans were studied, Substituent and linking effects on the photochromic properties are discussed. We demonstrate that the cross-talk between the two photochromophores is dependent on the length of the oligothiophene linker. The presence of the bithiophene linker led to high colorability and high quantum yield of coloration.

Novel 1-[2-(diarylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazoles as HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. A structure-activity relationship investigation

1-[2-(Diarylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazoles (DAMNIs) is a novel family of HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) active at submicromolar concentration. Replacement of one phenyl ring of 1-[2-(diphenylmethoxy)ethyl]-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (4) with heterocyclic rings, such as 2-thienyl or 3-pyridinyl, led to novel DAMNIs with increased activity. In HIV-1 WT cell-based assay the racemic 1-{2-[α-(thiophen-2-yl) phenylmethoxy]ethyl}-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (7) (EC50 = 0.03 μM) proved 5 times more active than compound 4. Docking experiments showed that the introduction of a chiral center would not affect the binding of both (R)-7 and (S)-7. The internal scoring function of the Autodock program calculated the same inhibition constant (Ki = 7.9 nM) for the two enantiomers. Compounds 7 (ID50 = 8.25 μM) were found more active than efavirenz (ID50 = 25 μM) against the viral RT carrying the K103N mutation, suggesting for these compounds a potential use in efavirenz based anti-AIDS regimens.

Direct Formation of (Haloaryl)copper Nucleophiles from Haloiodobenzenes and Active Copper

(o-Halophenyl)-, (m-halophenyl)-, and (p-halophenyl)copper reagents have been formed in moderate to high yields at room temperature from active copper and the corresponding haloiodobenzenes.These reagents have been cross-coupled with a variety of alkyl and acyl halides to produce the respective haloarenes and haloaryl ketones.Remarkably, (o-fluorophenyl)- and (o-chlorophenyl)copper are produced in good yields by this procedure without undergoing elimination to form benzyne making this approach a convenient method for generating o-halophenyl nucleophiles.

Remarkably stable ortho-halophenylcopper reagents

We wish to report the generation of remarkably stable o-halophenlycopper reagents at room temperature by the direct oxidative addition of activated copper to o-flouro-and o-choloriodobenzene. The reagents will undergo substitution reactions with suitable organic halides at 25°C.
