4,6-Diacetylresorcinol in heterocyclic synthesis Part II: Synthesis of some novel 4,6-bis(azolyl/azinyl/ azepinyl)resorcinols

– A series of new 4,6-bis(azolyl/azinyl/azepinyl)resorcinols was synthesized in a combinatorial manner besides, (2E,2'E)-4,6-bis[3-(aminophenyl-substituted)prop-2-en-1-oxo-1-yl]resorcinols were also obtained. Heterocyclization of (2E,2'E)-4,6-bis[3-(dimethylamino)prop-2-en-1-oxo-1-yl]resorcinol (2) with nitrogen-containing binucleophiles afforded the target compounds. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral tools.
