What is it about?

A facile one-pot multi-component synthesis of corticosteroid thiopyran derivatives, which possess anti-bacterial activity. Excellent yields of the products, and non-chromatographic purification are some of the main advantages of this protocol.

Why is it important?

Keeping in mind the wide range of applications of corticosteroids and thiopyran, herein we intend to develop a simple and efficient strategy to synthesize steroidal thiopyran derivatives starting with different commercially available corticosteroids and study their biological properties.

Perspectives

To achieve our aim, we employed a one-pot multi-component synthesis of steroidal thiopyran derivatives by the reaction of corticosteroids, malononitrile, and carbon disulphide in the presence of triethylamine as a catalyst
