General description

Piperonyloyl chloride is an acyl halide. It participates in the preparation of starting reagent (N-acyl indole), required for the synthesis of pyrrolophenanthridone alkaloids. Kinetic study of the solvolysis of piperonyloyl chloride in various pure and binary solvent mixtures has been proposed. Solvolysis reaction has been reported to proceed via electron-rich acyl transfer mechanism.

Application

Piperonyloyl chloride is suitable for use in a kinetic study to evaluate the solvolysis rate constants of piperonyloyl chloride in 27 different solvents. It may be used in the synthesis of the following compounds:
  • 2-phenylbenzimidazoles
  • (Z)-3-hydroxy-1-(5-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromen-6-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one
  • pongapinone A
  • 2-((1-(2-(N-(4-chlorophenyl)benzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carboxamido)ethyl)piperidin-4-yl)oxy)acetic acid phosphoric acid salt, inhibitor of platelet aggregation
  • justicidin B, the piscicidal components of Justicia Hayatai var. decumbens
  • piperazine derivatives

A new series of fluorinated and non-fluorinated 2-phenylbenzimidazoles bearing oxygenated substituents on the phenyl ring has been synthesized. Synthesis of the new series was based on our previous discovery of 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-fluorobenzothiazole (PMX 610) as a potent and selective antitumour agent
