Synthesis and cytotoxic activity of N-substituted thiosemicarbazones of 3-(3,4-methylenedioxy)phenylpropanal.
Joselice e Silva M, Alves AJ, Do Nascimento SC. Joselice e Silva M, et al. Farmaco. 1998 Mar;53(3):241-3. doi: 10.1016/s0014-827x(97)00022-0. Farmaco. 1998. PMID: 9639871
Five new N-substituted thiosemicarbazones of 3-(3,4-methylenedioxy)phenylpropanal were synthesized. Safrole, a natural product obtained from sassafras oil (Ocotea pretiosa), was oxidized to alcohol using BH3-THF and H2O2, followed by oxidation to aldehyde using pyri …
