This book highlighted the methods used for the syntheses of curcumin compounds. The activity of curcuminoids and their synthetic importance were investigated. It also reported a good introduction for the literature survey of the inhibitors that used to reduce the corrosion of alpha-brass alloy in acid medium. In this context, we reported herein the behavior of curcumin towards some active reagents as a facile and convenient route to some heterocyclic derivatives containing a curcumin moiety. The methods of synthesis and the synthetic mechanisms of the aforementioned reactions were well...

This book reported the literature survey of the chemistry of antipyrine. In this context, all the synthetic methods used for the preparation of antipyrine that is one of the most important organic compounds, were reported. In addition, the synthetic methods used for the preparation of 4-aminoantipyrine were investigated. Compounds incorporated antipyrine moiety exhibited high biological activities, so it was used in drug design. The organic reactions of antipyrine from the literature survey were reported in this book. Also, the biological importance were highlighted. Antipyrine was applied in...
