Synthesis and cytotoxicity studies of newly designed benzyl-hydroquinone derivatives

Abstract: A series of new benzyl-substituted hydroquinones has been prepared by short and flexible routes. Such molecules are simplified analogs of bioactive natural terpenes. Preliminary studies have established, for some of these derivatives, promising cytotoxicity data against human carcinoma cancer cell lines.

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylative coupling of benzyl chlorides with aryl boronic acids in aqueous media

A novel chemoselective protocol for the carbonylative Suzuki coupling of benzyl chlorides with aryl boronic acids at low pressure of carbon monoxide has been developed. Applying a commercially available palladium acetate/PCy 3 catalyst system in the presence of potassium phosphate as the base and water as the solvent the coupling reactions proceeded smoothly. To demonstrate the general applicability 12 different α-arylated acetophenones have been synthesized in moderate to good yields (41-78%) under mild conditions.

A convenient and improved montmorillonite K-10 catalysed Friedel-Crafts benzylation and allylation with activated esters

Benzyl benzoate and cinnamyl acetate has been effectively used respectively as alkylating and allylating substrates in Friedel-Crafts reaction catalysed by montmorillonite K-10 clay.
