A simple and fast three-component diastereoselective synthesis of biologically important spiro scaffold 4 was carried out in reasonable purity starting from readily available 1H-indole-2,3-dione 1, ethyl cyanoacetate 2 and 4-hydroxycoumarin 3 under microwave in high yield (88%-92%) and short time.
Spiro[3H-indole-3,2'-thiazolidine]-3'(1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-2,4'(1H)-dione. -A series of spiro compounds (IV) (12 examples) is efficiently prepared in high yields and within a few minutes by the microwave-assisted three-component cyclocondensation of indoles, heterocyclic amines, and thioglycolic acids using a clay as support. All products exhibit good in vitro antifungal activity against 3 pathogenic fungi. -(DANDIA*, A.; SINGH, R.; KHATURIA, S.; MERIENNE, C.; MORGANT, G.; LOUPY, A.; Bioorg.
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.
