AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers developed 2-Hydroxy-4-morpholin-2,5-diarylfuran-3(2)-one derivatives using methyl ketones and morpholine as starting materials through a combination of iodine and zinc dust in a one-pot synthesis.
  • The synthesis occurred under mild conditions and successfully formed various chemical bonds including carbon-carbon (C-C), carbon-nitrogen (C-N), and carbon-oxygen (C-O) bonds.
  • A notable achievement of this process was the construction of a quaternary carbon center while incorporating the morpholine fragment, which is significant for drug development.

Article Abstract

2-Hydroxy-4-morpholin-2,5-diarylfuran-3(2)-one derivatives were constructed sequentially using iodine and zinc dust from simple and readily available methyl ketone and morpholine as the starting materials. Under mild conditions, C-C, C-N, and C-O bonds formed in a one-pot synthesis. A quaternary carbon center was successfully constructed, and the active drug fragment morpholine was introduced into the molecule.
