DEFINITION OF MULTICOMPONENT
REACTIONS (MCRs)
• Reactions in which more than two starting compounds
react to form a product in such a way that the majority
of the atoms of the starting material can be found in
the product are called multicomponent reactions.

• Multistep Reactions
– Divergent Reactions
– One step after another
– Low Efficiency
– Low Diversity per Step
 Multicomponent Reactions
 Convergent Reactions
 Reaction in one pot
 Higher Efficiency
 High Diversity per Step

TYPE OF
REACTION
GENERAL REACTION SCHEME
TYPE I
e.g. Certain types of Strecker Reaction
TYPE II
e.g. Passerini Reaction and Ugi Reactions
TYPE III
e.g. Generally seen in biological systems
Reference: Ugi, I. et al. Molecules 2003, 8, 53-66.

• Isocyanide Based MCRs
– Passerini Reaction
– Ugi Reaction

• First isocyanide
based MCR
• Developed in
1921 by Mario
Passerini
• Simple 3

• Isocyanide Based MCRs
– Passerini Reaction
– Ugi Reaction
14
• Developed in 1959 by
Ivar Ugi
• The most studied and
used MCR
• Involves an isocyanide,
a carboxylic acid, an
amine and a carbonyl
compound to yield
α-aminoacyl amides
α-acylamino
carboxamides
1930 - 2005
References: Domling, A. Chem. Rev. 2006, 106, 17-89.

16
• Synthesis of toxin Dysidenin from the sponge Dysidea
herbacea
Reference: De Laszlo, S. E. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1985, 107, 199-203.
17
Fukuyama et al. have reported the synthesis of a marine tunicate,
Ecteinascidin 743, which has extremely potent antitumor acitivity, using
the Ugi reaction as a key step.
Reference: Domling, A. et al, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2000, 39, 3168-3210.
18
Majority of the variations
can be made
at the carboxylic acids.
For eg. Use of cyanic
acids, hydrogen
thiocyanate, hydrazoic
acid
Few changes can be made to the
amine.
Derivatives of ammonia such as
hydrazine, hydrazides or
hydroxylamines can be used.
19
• Overlap between Ugi reaction and Passerini reaction
– Side products of each other
– Limited use of amines in Passerini Reaction
– Lower yields
Reference: Banfi, L. et. al. Organic Reactions; Charette A. B. ed. Wiley, New York, 2005,
vol. 65, p 1.
Ugi Reaction
Passerini Reaction
• Developed in 1893 by Italian Chemist, Pietro Biginelli.
• A classical non-isocyanide-based multicomponent
process.
• Involves an acid catalysed condensation of β-keto
esters, aldehyde and urea (or thiourea) in alcohol gives
Dihydropyrimidinones.

22
• They have been found to exhibit a wide spectrum of biological effects
including antiviral, antitumor, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory
activities.
• A batzelladine alkaloids A and B which are efficient HIV gp-120-CD4
inhibitors
