A convenient and one-pot synthesis of 3-aroyl/heteroaroyl-2H-chromene-2-thiones and benzo[f]2H-chromene-2-thiones has been developed by the condensation of β-oxodithioesters and salicylaldehydes/α-hydroxynaphthaldehydes in the presence of indium trichloride under solvent-free conditions. The reaction is operationally facile, readily scalable, and offers rapid entry into differentially substituted chromene-2-thione
通过β-氧代二硫代酯与水杨醛/α-的缩合反应,开发出了一种方便的一锅合成3-芳酰基/杂芳酰基-2 H-亚甲基-2-硫酮和苯并[ f ] 2 H-亚甲基-2-硫酮的方法。在无溶剂条件下在三氯化铟存在下生成羟基萘醛。该反应操作简便,易于扩展,可快速进入差异取代的亚甲基-2-硫酮骨架。
Synthesis of functionalized benzo[f]2H-chromenes and evaluation of their antimicrobial activities
Knoevenagel cyclocondensations of alpha-hydroxy naphthaldehyde with beta-oxodithioesters and ketene dithioacetals yielded 2H-benzo[f]chromene-2-thiones and 2H-benzo[f]chromen-2-ones, respectively, in high yields. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for antifungal and antibacterial activities. Among them, compounds (2-furyl)(3-thioxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone and phenyl(3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone exhibited excellent antifungal activity against tested fungi Curvularia lunata and Fusarium moniliforme. The highest antibacterial activity against the tested bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was observed for (4-chlorophenyl)(3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone. The results of antimicrobial screening demonstrate that (2-furyl)(3-thioxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone, phenyl(3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone, and (4-chlorophenyl)(3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-2-yl)methanone are promising as antimicrobial drugs.
