A new series of thiazolidinone linked 1,2,3-triazole hybrids was designed and synthesized using the copper-catalyzed Huisgen azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) between thiazolidinone linked alkyne and aromatic azides. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were established by NMR (H and C) and HRMS. The targeted thiazolidinone-1,2,3-triazole hybrids were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against four human cancer cell lines, including fibrosarcoma (HT-1080), lung carcinoma (A-549), and breast carcinoma (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliun bromide (MTT).

In the current study, natural (R)-carvone was utilized as a starting material for the efficient synthesis of two series of isoxazoline derivatives bearing the 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety. The new compounds were obtained in good yields and were characterized by H and C NMR and HRMS analysis. The newly synthesized monoterpenic isoxazoline 1,3,4-thiadiazole and their thiosemicarbazone intermediate derivatives were evaluated for their anticancer activity in four cancer cell lines (HT-1080, A-549, MCF-7, and MDA-MB-231).

3-Acetylisoxazolines were synthesized by the reaction of natural (R)-limonene and (R)-carvone with acetone in the presence of iron (III) nitrate. The reaction showed to be highly peri- and regioselective. Next, using a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction, the mono-3-acylisoxazolines derived from these monoterpenes were evaluated for their reactivity with nitrilimines.

Aseries of novel 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles were synthesized from an (R)-carvone terminal alkyne derivative via a Cu (I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction using CuSO,5HO as the copper (II) source and sodium ascorbate as a reducing agent which reduces Cu (II) into Cu (I). All the newly synthesized 1,2,3-triazoles - were fully identified on the basis of their HRMS and NMR spectral data and then evaluated for their cell growth inhibition potential by MTS assay against HT-1080 fibrosarcoma, A-549 lung carcinoma, and two breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) cell lines. Compound showed notable cytotoxic effects against the HT-1080 and MCF-7 cells with IC values of 25.

This study aimed to analyze the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of isoxazoline derivatives with monoterpene scaffold in HT-1080 fibrosarcoma, MCF-7, and MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma, and A-549 lung carcinoma. The cytotoxic effects data revealed that compounds 9a-e generally induced significant cell growth inhibition in all cell lines, with IC ranging from 10 to 30 µM. However, for compounds and , the IC reached a value of 100 µM in HT-1080 cells.

A novel bis-isoxazole was synthesized from (R)-Carvone and p-methylbenzaldoxime, via two successive [3+2] cycloaddition reactions (). The newly obtained bis-isoxazole has been fully characterized by HRMS and NMR spectroscopy. The HMBC experiment was performed to determine the stereo and the regioselectivity of the reaction.

A novel series of 1,2,3-triazole-thiazolidinone-carvone hybrid compounds has been designed and synthesized using the copper-catalyzed Huisgen azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) process based on (R)-Carvone-O-propargylated 5-hydroxybenzylidene-thiazolidin-4-one derivative as starting material. All compounds were characterized and identified based on their NMR and HRMS spectroscopic data. HMBC correlations confirm that under the CuAAC reaction conditions, only the 1,4-disubstituted triazole regioisomers were formed.

The title compound, CHClNO, was prepared and isolated as a pure diastereoisomer, using column chromatography followed by a succession of fractional crystallizations. Its exact structure was fully identified H NMR and confirmed by X-ray diffraction. It is built up from a central five-membered di-hydro-isoxazole ring to which a -chloro-phenyl group and a cyclo-hex-2-enone ring are attached in the 3 and 5 positions.

The synthesis and characterization of new N-donor bitriazolic tripods were reported. The in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities of these products were screened against fungal strain (Candida pelliculosa) and against four bacterial strains (Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria innocua, and Escherichia coli). Biological data revealed the effect of the chemical structure on antimicrobial activity.

The monitoring by UV spectroscopy of the Pd-catalyzed hydrogenolysis in acetonitrile of 2-methyl-2-benzyloxycarbonyl-1-indanone and 2-methyl-2-benzyloxycarbonyl-1-tetralone showed the successive formation of corresponding beta-ketoacids and enols to deliver finally the ketones. Some factors which influence the stability of the intermediates are determined. In contrast to the above benzyl beta-ketoesters, the enol was not detected from benzyl (2-methylinden-3-yl) carbonate.
