The umpolung Michael addition of isatin N,N′-cyclic azomethine imine 1,3-dipoles with chalcones is reported. The reaction could be finished within a very short time (0.3-2 min), with 3,3-disubstituted oxindole derivatives obtained in moderate to excellent yields with promising dr values. Unusual Michael adducts were obtained in moderate to high yields (26-98%) with low to high diastereoselectivities (0.8: 1 to 8.5: 1 dr). All the synthesized compounds (3, 3′, 4, 5, 5′, 7, 7′, 9 and 9′) were well characterized by FTIR, NMR, and mass spectral analyses and further confirmed by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of compounds 3aa and 4n.

Abstract: To identify novel adenosine receptor (AR) ligands based on the chalcone scaffold, herein the synthesis, characterization and in vitro and in silico evaluation of 33 chalcones (15–36 and 37–41) and structurally related compounds (42–47) are reported. These compounds were characterized by radioligand binding and GTP shift assays to determine the degree and type of binding affinity, respectively, against rat (r) A1 and A2A ARs. The chalcone derivatives 24, 29, 37 and 38 possessed selective A1 affinity below 10?μM, and thus, are the most active compounds of the present series; compound 38 was the most potent selective A1 AR antagonist (Ki (r) = 1.6?μM). The structure–affinity relationships (SAR) revealed that the NH2-group at position C3 of ring A of the chalcone scaffold played a key role in affinity, and also, the Br-atom at position C3′ on benzylidene ring B. Upon in vitro and in silico evaluation, the novel C3 amino-substituted chalcone derivative 38—that contains an α,?-unsaturated carbonyl system and easily allows structural modification—may possibly be a synthon in future drug discovery.

A tandem amidation/epoxidation sequence between various substituted chalcones and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) for the synthesis of trisubstituted epoxides employing N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis was developed. This reaction was performed under metal-free conditions in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant. Trisubstituted epoxides bearing a ketone and an amide functionality (N,N-dimethyl formyl group) were synthesized starting from a wide range of chalcones in moderate to good yields with excellent diastereoselectivity.
