Abstract

Glitazones are an important class of drugs used specially in the treatment of diabetes mellitus type II. Pharmaceuticals intermediates which originates glitazones can be formed by the reaction of a carbonyl with an activated methylene, though Knoevenagel condesantion using a weak base as catalyst. In this study, tiazolidine-2,4-dione (TZD) was reacted with p-metoxybenzaldehyde and p-nitrobenzaldehyde, using piperidine and pyrrolidine as catalysts. The influence of the substituent was evident, 4-metoxybenzaldehyde showed the highest value of TZD conversion. Pyrrolidine showed higher value of TZD conversion than piperidine for both aldehydes, reaching a conversion of 100% to 4-methoxybenzaldehyde with lower amount of pyrrolidine corresponding to 62.5% of piperidine.
