Methyl 2-[(2-methylphenoxy)methyl]benzoate
(2012) Isloor, A.M.; Sankappa Rai, U.; Shetty, P.; Gerber, T.; Hosten, E.; Betz, R.
In the title methyl-benzoate compound, C 16H 16O3, the molecule is essentially planar (r.m.s. of all fitted non-H atoms = 0.0370 Å); the dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 2.30 (7)°. Apart from a C - H?? inter-action, no marked inter-molecular contacts are obvious.
Novel chromeno [2,3-b]-pyrimidine derivatives as potential anti-microbial agents
(2010) Sankappa Rai, U.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Vijesh, A.M.; Prabhu, N.; Isloor, S.; Thiageeswaran, M.; Fun, H.-K.
An efficient, microwave irradiated synthesis of novel chromeno[2,3-b]-pyrimidine derivatives was carried out. 2-Amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromene-3-carbonitrile was converted into imine using N,N-Dimethylacetaldehyde dimethylacetal to give the core intermediate, which was used for the preparation of chromenopyrimidine library, using acetic acid and different amine in microwave irradiation for 5 min. Structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral studies. Compound 6g was characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis. All the compounds were also screened for their anti-microbial activity. Few of the compounds are found to be potential antimicrobials. © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
Synthesis and biological evaluation of aminoketones
(2010) Sankappa Rai, U.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Isloor, N.; Malladi, S.; Fun, H.-K.
A three-component Mannich reaction of different ketones with aromatic aldehydes and different amines in microwave irradiation under solvent free condition afforded corresponding ?-amino carbonyl compounds in excellent yields. This method proved as a novel and improved modification of the reported three-component Mannich reaction in terms of milder reaction conditions, reaction times, clean reaction profiles, very small quantity of catalyst and simple workup procedure. Newly synthesized ?-aminoketones were characterized by spectral studies. Structure of compound 4a was also confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. All the compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity by MIC method. Few of the molecules were found to be biologically potent. © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
Synthesis and in vitro biological evaluation of new pyrazole chalcones and heterocyclic diamides as potential anticancer agents
(Elsevier B.V., 2015) Sankappa Rai, U.; Isloor, A.M.; Shetty, P.; Pai, K.S.R.; Fun, H.-K.
Synthesis and characterization of new heterocyclic pyrazole chalcones (4a-. e) and diamide (6a-. e) derivatives are described. Pyrazole chalcones were synthesized by the reaction of pyrazole aldehydes and suitable aromatic ketones. Diamides were synthesized by the reaction of phthalic acid and amines. Newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral studies and their biological activity was assessed in vitro using MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma) and HeLa (human cervical tumor cells) cell lines. Few of the synthesized molecules inhibited the growth of the human breast cancer cell lines and human cervical tumor cell lines at low micromolar to nanomolar concentrations. © 2014 King Saud University.
