Mini-Reviews in Organic Chemistry - Volume 19, Issue 3, 2022

Abstract: Research for discovering chemical entities with antiproliferative properties to combat globally rising cancer cases has witnessed tremendous interest in recent years. Phenothiazines possess novel antiproliferative potentials and have often be described as crucial sources of scaffolds for anticancer drug discovery. Some several phenothiazine-hybrid compounds recently synthesised are effective against variou Read More

Abstract: In this mini-review article, we have mentioned the key roles of some of the most important herbal plants medicine containing flavonoids and phytochemicals with antiviral activities. All relevant information was searched by using the terms, influenza, phytochemicals, SARS, SARSCov- 2, flavonoids, and traditional medicinal plants uses, from reliable databases, such as PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The m Read More

Abstract: This mini-review deals with the miscibility behaviour of two biopolymers, chitosan and alginate. It is well known that the miscibility in multifunctional polymer blends is favoured due to specific interactions, which origin a negative heat of mixing. Particular interest is focused on functionalized polymers because they are the most suitable way to obtain interacting polymers, producing a single-phase material. Due Read More

Abstract: The chemistry of 2-quinolones derivatives has received more attention in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry. Moreover, several advancements in the application of this family of compounds are considered to be of great utility. In recent years, a variety of new, effective, and novel synthetic approaches (including green chemistry, catalyzed and microwave-assisted synthesis) have been discovered and develop Read More

Abstract: The present account surveys the results of a myriad of works on the C-methylation of organic substrates with methanol as an eco-friendly methylating agent. The innumerable reports on this issue reveal the widespread use of a set of solid catalysts such as molecular sieves, zeolites, metal phosphates, metal oxides and transition metal complexes to accomplish such methylation. One related facet was the impact of th Read More
