Abstract
This study presents a straightforward and efficient method for synthesizing a novel series of 1-benzyl-3-((1-benzyl-4-(benzylamino)-6-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-3-yl)(aryl)methyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one derivatives through a one-pot, three-component reaction. The process employs 1-benzyl-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one, diverse aromatic aldehydes, and 1-benzyl-4-(benzylamino)-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one in polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) as an environmentally benign solvent. The methodology prioritizes efficiency, scalability, and reduced environmental impact, offering a practical route to functionalized pyridinones.
We report a catalyst-free protocol for the efficient synthesis of biologically relevant heterocycles, notably functionalized pyridinones. This method features high atom economy, broad functional group tolerance, and minimal purification steps, embodying the sustainable chemistry principles. All products were characterized by multi-spectroscopic analyses (1H/13C NMR, IR, MS) and elemental analysis. Furthermore, single-crystal X-ray diffraction provided unambiguous structural confirmation for a representative derivative.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
