Micelles catalyzed chemo- and regio-selective one pot and one step synthesis of 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(alkyl and arylsulfanyl)-1,4-benzoquinones and 2,5-diaminosubstituted-1,4-benzoquinones "in-Water" and their biological evaluation as antibacterial and antifungal agents

Chemo- and regio-selective one pot and one step synthesis of novel 2,3,5,6-tetrakis (substituted thio)cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diones (4d-14), 2,5-dichloro-3,6-diaminocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diones and 2,5-diaminocyclohexa- 2,5-diene-1,4-diones (16) by economical green methodology approach using LD (Laundry detergent) as a catalyst "In-Water" by nucleophilic addition and substitution reactions of 1,4-benzoquinone and chloranil with sulfur and nitrogen nucleophiles in high yields has been demonstrated. The antifungal profile of 4 and 16 indicates that compounds 4d and 16f had better antifungal activity compared to clinically prevalent antifungal drugs Fluconazole, 5-Fluorocytosine and Clotrimazole against Sporothrix schenckii and Trichophyton mentagraphytes. 16f had also been found to possess better antibacterial activity compared to Ampicillin in vitro against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Compound 16f did not exhibit any toxicity towards mammalian cells L929.

FeCl3-mediated direct chalcogenation of phenols

Direct sulfenylation and selenylation of phenols using a stoichiometric amount of FeCl3 under an oxygen atmosphere has been developed. The chalcogenated phenols were shown to be suitable for preparing S- and Se-containing compounds using the reaction of the remaining hydroxy group.
