      The synthesis of a new class of angular tetracyclic quinones is described. Our strategy involves Diels-Alder reaction of pyrroloquinolinequinone 9, generated in situ from pyrroloquinoline 8, and dienes. The required ...
    • Valderrama, Jaime A.; Pessoa Mahana, Hernán; Sarras, Gabriela; Tapia, Ricardo (1999)
      A synthesis of N-(2-nitrobenzyl)acetanilide (5) and (11) from 2- nitrobenzaldehyde and aromatic amines is reported. The reaction of amides (5) and (11) with iron in acetic acid-ethanol-water provided the corresponding 3- ...
    • Benites, Julio; Toledo, Héctor; Salas, Felipe; Guerrero, Angélica; Rios, David; Valderrama, Jaime A.; Calderon, Pedro Buc (2018)
      Infection by Helicobacter pylori increases 10 times the risk of developing gastric cancer. Juglone, a natural occurring 1,4-naphthoquinone, prevents H. pylori growth by interfering with some of its critical metabolic ...
    • Benites, Julio; Valderrama, Jaime A.; Ríos, David; Lagos Mónaco, Rosalba; Monasterio Opazo, Octavio; Buc Calderón, Pedro (2016)
      Dihydroxynaphthyl aryl ketones 1-5 exhibit activity as tubulin polymerization inhibitors by targeting the colchicine binding site of microtubules making them potential anticancer drugs. Therefore, analogues 1-5 have been ...

      The vascular endotheliumplays an essential role in the control of the blood flow. Pharmacological agents like quinone (menadione) at various doses modulate this process in a variety of ways. In this study, Q7, a ...
    • Araya Maturana, Ramiro; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Delgado Castro, Tomás; Valderrama, Jaime A.; Weiss López, Boris (Elsevier Ltd, 1999)
      The Diels-Alder reactions of 8,8-dimethylnaphtalene-1,4,5(8H)-trione with 2,4-hexadien-1-ol and its O-acetyl derivative were investigated in different solvents. The regiochemistry of the cycloaddition of the hexadienol was ...
    • Tapia, Ricardo A.; Carrasco, Claudia; Ojeda, Scarlet; Salas, Cristian; Valderrama, Jaime A.; Morello Casté, Antonio; Repetto Scaramelli, Yolanda (2002)
      The synthesis of new indazol-4,7-dione derivatives via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of diazomethane with 2,3-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (2) and 1,4-naphthoquinone (7) followed by N-alkylation of the pyrazol nitrogen atom of ...
