The Ritter reaction used to be one of the most powerful synthetic tools to functionalize alcohols and nitriles, providing valuableN-alkyl amide products. However, this reaction has not been frequently used in modern organic synthesis due to its employment of strongly acidic and harsh reaction conditions, which often lead to complicated side reactions. Herein, we report the development of a new method using salts of the tropylium ion to promote the Ritter reaction. This method works well on a range of alcohol and nitrile substrates, giving the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. This reaction protocol is amenable to microwave and continuous flow reactors, offering an attractive opportunity for further applications in organic synthesis.

Chitinases are the glycosyl hydrolase for catalyzing the degradation of chitin and play an indispensable role in bacterial pathogenesis, fungal cell wall remodeling, and insect molting. Thus, chitinases are attractive targets for therapeutic drugs and pes

In line with the modern multi-target-directed ligand paradigm of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a series of 19 compounds composed of flavone and cyanoacetamide groups have been synthesized and evaluated as multifunctional agents against AD. Biological evaluation demonstrated that compounds 7j, 7n, 7o, 7r, and 7s exhibited excellent inhibitory potency (AChE, IC50 of 0.271 ± 0.012 to 1.006 ± 0.075 μM) and good selectivity toward acetylcholinesterase, significant antioxidant activity, good modulation effects on self-induced Aβ aggregation, low cytotoxicity, and neuroprotection in human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells. Further, an inclusive study on the interaction of 7j, 7n, 7o, 7r, and 7s with AChE at physiological pH 7.2 using fluorescence, circular dichroism, and molecular docking methods suggested that these derivatives bind strongly to the peripheral anionic site of AChE mostly through hydrophobic interactions. Overall, the multifunctional profiles and strong AChE binding affinity highlight these compounds as promising prototypes for further pursuit of innovative multifunctional drugs for AD.
