Applications of alkyl orthoesters as valuable substrates in organic transformations, focusing on reaction media

In this review we focus on applications of alkyl orthoesters as valuable and efficient substrates to perform various classes of two-component and multi-component organic reactions. The article has classified them according to two aspects, which are: (i) a focus on the reaction medium (solvent-free conditions, aqueous media, and organic solvents); and (ii) an examination of product structures. Reaction accomplishment under solvent-free conditions is an eco-friendly process with the absence of volatile toxic solvents, which puts it in line with green chemistry goals. Water is an interesting choice in organic transformations due to its inexpensiveness and safety. The authors hope their assessment will help chemists to attain new approaches for utilizing alkyl orthoesters in various organic synthetic methods. The review covers the corresponding literature up to the beginning of 2020.

A Synthesis of 1-aryl-3,5-dioxo-tetrahydro-1H-pyrazols from reaction of Alkyl Isocyanides, Isopropylidene Meldrum's Acid and Arylhydrazines

The reaction between alkyl isocyanides and isopropylidene Meldrum's acid in the presence of arylhydrazines leads to functionalised 1-aryl-3,5-dioxo-tetrahydro-1 H-pyrazols in good yields.

Copper(II) Complexes with Reduced Schiff Base: Synthesis, Spectroscopic, Thermal, X-Ray, and Cytotoxic Studies of Novel Copper(II) Complexes with an Arylpyrazole Ligand

The synthesis of a novel arylpyrazole-derived ligand, 1,2-bis[(1,3-diphenylpyrazol-4-yl)methyl]diaminoethane (Ph4Pz2mde), and its complexes prepared with CuCl2 [Cu(Ph4Pz2mde)Cl2(MeOH)] 1, CuBr2 [Cu(Ph4Pz2mde)Br2(MeOH)] 2, from MeOH, and [Cu(Ph4Pz2mde)Cl2(DMF)] 3, from a mixture of MeOH and DMF, are described. The complexes are characterized by elemental and thermal analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy, while the 1H and 13C NMR assignments are given for the ligand. The crystal and molecular structure of [Cu(Ph4Pz2mde)Cl2(DMF)] was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In-vitro cytotoxicity of the Ph4Pz2mde ligand and two copper(ii) complexes was obtained using sulforhodamine B (SRB) treatment against three human tumour cell lines: HeLa (epitheloid carcinoma of cervix), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), and MRC-5 (lung fetal fibroblasts).

Synthesis and insecticidal activity of fluorinated 2-(2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2,4,5,6-tetrahydrocyclopentapyrazoles

A number of fluorinated 1-aryl-tetrahydrocyclopentapyrazoles were synthesized and their insecticidal activity was evaluated. Some of the fluorinated compounds had significant insecticidal properties.

Regioselective Synthesis of 1-Aryl-3,4-substituted/annulated-5-(methylthio)pyrazoles and 1-Aryl-3-(methylthio)-4,5-substituted/annulated Pyrazoles

[reaction: see text] Highly efficient and regioselective synthesis of 1-aryl-3,4-substituted/annulated-5-(methylthio)pyrazoles and 1-aryl-3-(methylthio)-4,5-substituted/annulated pyrazoles has been reported via cyclocondensation of arylhydrazines with either alpha-oxoketene dithioacetals or beta-oxodithioesters.
