Regiocontrolled Synthesis of Pyrazole Derivatives Through 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Reaction And Synthesis of Helicene-Thiourea based and Polymer Supported Soos's Catalyst for Asymmetric Synthesis

In first part we have developed a simple regiocontrolled protocol of 1,3-DC to get ring fused pyrazole derivatives. These pyrazole derivatives were synthesized using 1,3-DC between nitrile imine and various dipolarophiles such as alkynes, cyclic α,β-ketones, lactones, thiocatones and lactums. The reactions were found to be highly regiospecific. In second part we have discussed about helicene, its properties, synthesis and applications as asymmetric catalyst.Due to inherent chirality, herein we have made an attempt to synthesize the helicene-thiourea based catalyst for asymmetric catalysis. The synthesis involved formation of two key intermediates viz, bromo-phenanthrene 5 and a vinyl-naphthalene 10. The coupling of these two intermediates leads to formation of hexahelicene.
