In the present article there are discussed the ways of synthesis of some azo-dyes from less active aromatic compounds, including biologically active ones. The novel naphtho[1,2-g]indole and naphtho[2,1-g]indole containing azo dyes have been synthesized in the non-polar organic media under phase transfer catalysis. Obtained disperse dyes are suitable for dyeing nylon and polyester fibers from light yellow to red color with good-excellence dyeing levelness, light, washing and sublimation fastness. The resulting azo dyes may be characterized as the less toxic compounds due to non-toxic metabolism reagents. Additionally, the quantumchemical calculations have been performed using quantum mechanical (MM2) and semi-empirical (AM1) methods, which allow to predict the activity of dyes against AhR ligand.

New bifunctional chiral ammonium salts were investigated in an asymmetric cascade synthesis of a key building block for a variety of biologically relevant isoindolinones. With this chiral compound in hand, the development of further transformations allowed for the synthesis of diverse derivatives of high pharmaceutical value, such as the Belliotti (S)-PD172938 and arylated analogues with hypnotic sedative activity, obtained in good overall total yield (50%) and high enantiomeric purity (95% ee). The synthetic routes developed herein are particularly convenient in comparison with the current methods available in literature and are particularly promising for large scale applications.
