N,S-Substituted 1,3-butadienes were obtained from the reaction of the mono(thio)substituted nitrodienes with morpholine and some piperazine derivatives in dichloromethane. Also mono- and di(thio)substituted perchlorobutadienes were synthesized from the reactions of hexachloro-1,3-butadiene with o-aminothiophenol in ethanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The structures of the new compounds were characterized by microanalysis and spectroscopic data.

Theoretical Calculations and Experimental Verification of the Antibacterial Potential of Some Monocyclic β-Lactams Containing Two Synergetic Buried Antibacterial Pharmacophore Sites

A new series of N-thiazole, 3-phenyl, 4-substituted phenyl azetidine-2-ones 4(a–h) have been synthesized in good yields starting from 2-aminothiazole 1. In the first step, then Schiff's bases 3(a–h) are prepared by the condensation of 2-aminothiazole 1 with different aryl aldehydes 2(a–h). Finally, monocyclic β-lactams, i.e. substituted azetidinones 4(a–h), were the products formed using three different methods by the dehydrative cyclocondensation of 3(a–h) with phenyl acetyl chloride in dioxane, phenyl acetic acid–thionyl chloride in dichloromethane and phenyl acetic acid–phosphorus oxychloride in dichloromethane in the presence of triethylamine. We found that latter method is the best as compared with the former two methods. The synthesized molecules 4(a–h) were screened for their antibacterial activity against four microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive), Pseudomonas vulgaris (Gram positive), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram negative), and Escherichia coli (Gram negative). Their antibacterial activities are reported, and on the basis of the screening data available, attempt is also made to elucidate the structure–activity relationship.

Dihydrobenzo[h]coumarins (5a–7a) and their 4‐methyl analogs (5b–7b) were synthesized from 1‐naphthol via two different synthetic routes. One pathway is the direct condensation of 5,8‐dihydro‐1‐naphthol (9) with malic acid or ethyl acetoacetate, affording 7,10‐dihydrobenzo[h]coumarins 7a and 7b, respectively. The other is through the oxidation of 7,8,9,10‐tetrahydrobenzo[h] coumarins (15a–b), followed by the reduction of the carbonyl group and dehydration of hydroxyl group, giving 7,8-dihydrobenzo[h]coumarins (5a, b) and 9,10-dihydrobenzo[h]coumarins (6a, b). The regio selectivities for the oxidation reactions of 15a, b were rationalized on the basis of quantum chemical calculations and further confirmed by the X‐ray crystallographic analysis of the derivatives of oxidation products.

Abstract

In search of more potent new antitubercular agents, a library of novel piperazine tethered dimeric 1,2,3-triazoles were designed by assembling 1,2,3-triazoles and piperazine in a single molecular architectural framework. The titled compounds (3a–m) were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 1,4-di(prop-2-yn-1-yl)piperazine (1) and various azides (2a–m) using click chemistry approach with good yields. All the synthesized compounds (3a–m) have been screened for their in vitro antitubercular, antifungal and antioxidant activities against their respective strains. Among them, 3b, 3d, and 3i have revealed promising antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) H37Rv with MIC 12.5?µg/mL. Molecular docking results provided well-clustered solutions to the mode of binding for these molecules into the active site of Mtb enoyl reductase (InhA). In addition to this, most of synthesized compounds were found to have potential antifungal as well as antioxidant activity.     

Preparation,characterization, DFT calculations and ethylene oligomerization studies of iron(II) complexes bearing 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-phenol derivatives

Five 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-phenol derivatives including 1H (HL₁), 5-chloro-(HL₂), 5-methyl-(HL₃), 5,6-dichloro-(HL₄), and 5,6-dimethyl-(HL₅) were synthesized by the reaction of their corresponding benzene-1,2-diamine precursors and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde which subsequently was employed in complexation with Fe(II) to prepare complexes C1–C5, respectively. Indeed, in all complexes, the ligands were coordinated as bidentate, via the C=N nitrogen and hydroxy oxygen atom of benzimidazole moiety and phenol ring, respectively. The compounds were characterized by FTIR, UV–vis, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectropscopy, ICP, and elemental analysis (C, H, and N). The purity of these compounds was determined by melting point (m.p )and TLC. The synthesized ligands and complexes were geometrically optimized by Gaussian09 software at B3LYP/TZVP level of theory and satisfactory theoretical–experimental agreement was achieved for analysis of IR data of the compounds. Catalytic behavior of the iron(II) complexes was investigated for ethylene reactivity. On activation with diethylaluminum chloride (Et₂AlCl), iron(II) complex (C4) showed the highest activity (1686 kg oligomers.mol^?1(Fe).h^?1) for ethylene oligomerization when it contains chlorine substituents and exhibits good selectivity for linear 1-butene. The steric and electronic effects of ligands were investigated in detail on the influence of their catalytic activities.

Synthesis of Some Novel α-Cyanoketene-N,S-acetals Derived from Secondary Aliphatic Amines and Their Use in Pyrazole Synthesis

New α-cyanoketene-N,S-acetals 2(a–g) and β-dialkylamine-α-cyanoacrylates 3(g–i) were synthesized in good to excellent yields by the reaction of ethyl 2-cyano-3,3-bis(methylthio)acrylate 1 with secondary aliphatic amines (i.e., N-methylalkyl- and N-ethylalkylamines), and pyrrolidine, in the presence of triethylamine, under reflux in ethanol, for 1–16 h, depending on the amine used. Five N-methylalkyl amines and pyrrolidine yielded exclusively mono-substituted N,S-acetals 2(a–f) in good yields. On the other hand, N-ethylbenzylamine gave a mixture of monosubstituted products including N,S-acetal 2g in 35% yield and the unexpected product ethyl 3-[benzyl(ethyl)amino]-2-cyanoacrylate 3g in 50% yield. N-Ethylcyclohexylamine and N-ethylbutylamine did not produce N,S-acetals and gave only the unexpected products ethyl 2-cyano-3-[cyclohexyl(ethyl)amino]acrylate 3h and ethyl 3-[butyl(ethyl)amino]-2-cyanoacrylate 3i in good yields. The α-cyanoketene-N,S-acetals 2(a–f), 2j, and 2k underwent cyclization with the binucleophile hydrazine in ethanol under reflux to afford substituted pyrazoles 4(a–f), 4j, and 4k in good yields.

Synthesis and antibacterial evaluation of nitrogen containing novel heterocyclic chalcones

Thirteen different novel heterocyclic chalcones were synthesized using cycloaddition and Claisen–Schmidt condensation reactions. These newly synthesized compounds were characterized by their spectral studies and structure of (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(5-methyl-1-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (4h) was also evidenced by single crystal X-ray studies. These compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activities against seven bacterial strains in vitro. Compounds 4b and 4c containing 4-fluoro and 4-chloro groups have shown remarkable inhibition as showed by the standard drug ciprofloxacin against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively. Another compound 4k containing 3,4,5-trimethoxy group also showed similar activity against both these strains. Beside these three potential compounds 4b, 4c, 4k, one more compound 4g containing 4-methyl group showed equivalent inhibition as that of standard drug against E. coli. These categories of compounds are therefore good candidates for developing new effective antibacterial in future.     

Nano silver particles catalyzed synthesis,molecular docking and bioactivity of α-thiazolyl aminomethylene bisphosphonates

Abstract

A new series of α-thiazolyl aminomethylene bisphosphonates were synthesized by a three component reaction of 4-aryl substituted thiazol-2-amine with different dialkyl/aryl phosphites and triethyl orthoformate in the presence of Ag NPs (nano particles) as a catalyst under solvent free conditions. All the synthesized target compounds were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, mass and elemental analysis. The target compounds were screened for their in vitro antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity. Molecular docking studies were also performed. The results revealed that among the synthesized compounds tetramethyl(((4-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl)amino) methylene)bis(phosphonate) (5d), tetramethyl(((4-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-2-yl)amino) methylene) bis(phosphonate) (5h), and tetramethyl(((4-(4-bromophenyl)thiazol-2-yl)amino)methylene) bis (phosphonate) (5j) showed remarkably higher antioxidant activity by DPPH and H₂O₂ than the standard ascorbic acid. Compounds tetramethyl(((4-phenyl thiazol-2-yl)amino) methylene) bis(phosphonate) (5a), 5d, 5h and tetraethyl(((4-(4-bromophenyl)thiazol-2-yl) amino)methylene)bis (phosphonate) (5k) showed good antibacterial activity. 5a, 5d, and 5h also showed rather higher antifungal activity than the standard flucanozole. Computational docking methods have been used to predict how several aminomethylene bisphosphonate derivatives compete against the inhibitor BPH-1330 at the crystal enzyme structure of the 4H3A protein active site and how R and R₁ influence their binding ability.
