The synthesis, antimicrobial activity evaluations, biomolecule-binding properties (DNA), and absorption and emission properties of a new series of ()-1,1,1-trichloro-4-alkyl(aryl)amino-4-arylbut-3-en-2-ones and 2,2-difluoro-3-alkyl(aryl)amino-4-aryl-6-(trichloromethyl)-2-1,3,2-oxazaborinin-3-ium-2-uides in which 3(4)-alkyl(aryl) = H, Me, -propyl, -butyl, CH, 4-CHCH, 4-CHOCH, 4-NOCH, 4-FCH, 4-BrCH, 2-naphthyl, is reported. A series of β-enaminoketones is synthesized from the O,N-exchange reaction of some amines with ()-1,1,1-trichloro-4-methoxy-4-aryl-but-3-en-2-ones at 61-90% yields. Subsequently, reactions of the resulting β-enaminoketones with an appropriate source of boron (BF.

Herein we report the synthesis of twelve 2,5-substituted 4-(trifluoromethyl)-spirochromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidines (7-10), as well as an evaluation of their analgesic effect in a mouse pain model. The nine new chromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidines (7-9) were synthesized from the cyclocondensation reactions of three 2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(4-methoxyspiro[chromene-2,1'-cycloalkane]-3-yl)ethanones (3) containing 5-, 6- and 7-membered spirocycloalkanes, with some well-known amidine salts (4-6) [NHCR(NH)]-in which R=Me, Ph, and NH-at yields of 60-95%. Subsequently, three new 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-chromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidines (10) were obtained through a Clauson-Kaas reaction between the respective 2-(amino)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-chromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidines (9) and 2,5-dimethoxy-tetrahydrofuran.

A useful synthetic route for an initial new series of 2-substituted 4-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolines (3), as well as an evaluation of their analgesic effect in a mice pain model, is reported. Five new quinazolines were formed from the cyclocondensation reactions of 2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(1-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethanone (1) with some well-known amidine salts [NH2CR(=NH)] (2), in which R=H, Me, Ph, NH2 and SMe, at a 40-70% yield. Subsequently, due to the importance of the pyrrole nucleus, a 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)quinazoline (4) was obtained through a Clauson-Kaas reaction from the respective 2-(amino)quinazoline, in a reaction with 2,5-dimethoxy-tetrahydrofuran.
