New routes are described for the synthesis of diethyl arylsulfonylmalonic esters and various conveniently substituted derivatives of 3-arylsulfonyl-4-hydroxycoumarin and 3-arylsulfonyl-4-hydroxy-1H-quinolin-2-one. The latter were prepared by thermal condensation of diethyl arylsulfonylmalonic esters with substituted phenols and N-substituted aniline. Study of their anti-HIV-1, anti-HIV-2, and various other antiviral properties did not reveal interesting activity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
