Facile Baylis-Hillman reaction of substituted 3-isoxazolecarbaldehydes: The impact of proximal heteroatom within a heterocycle on the acceleration of reaction

The fast and facile Baylis-Hillman reaction in substi-tuted 3-isoxazolecarbaldehydes confirms the impact of the proxi-mal heteroatom within a heterocycle towards enhanced reactivity of the formyl group for this reaction

Simple and efficient synthesis of substituted 2-pyrrolidinones, 2-pyrrolones and pyrrolidines from enaminones of Baylis-Hillman derivatives of 3-isoxazolecarbaldehydes

The enaminones, generated from derivatives of appropriately substituted Baylis-Hillman adducts of 3-isoxazolecarbaldehydes undergo intramolecular ring-closure reactions to afford substituted 2-pyrrolidinones, 1,5-dihydro-2-pyrrolones and N-substituted pyrrolidines in good yields.

Baylis-Hillman reaction assisted parallel synthesis of 3, 5-disubstituted isoxazoles and their in vivo bioevaluation as antithrombotic agents

The solution phase parallel synthesis involving reactions of Baylis-Hillman products of 3-substituted-5-isoxazolecarbaldehydes with nucleophiles and their in vivo antithrombotic evaluations are described along with the results of in vitro platelet aggregation inhibition assay of a few compounds. Results of the detailed evaluation of one of the compounds as an inhibitor of platelet aggregation are also presented.
