Summary. Ethyl [4-oxo-3-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)thiazolidin-2-ylidene]acetates and [4-oxo-3-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)thiazolidin-2-ylidene]acetonitriles were shown to react with substituted benzaldehydes at the endocyclic methylene group leading to the corresponding 5-arylmethylidene derivatives. Their treatment with DMF · POCl₃ complex yielded 3-oxo-5-aroyl-2-arylmethylidene-2,3-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazole-7-carboxylic acids ethyl esters and -7-carbonitriles. The structures of the pyrrolothiazoles were confirmed by an X-ray crystallographic study, which indicated the (Z)-configuration at the arylmethylidene moiety.

Following [2+3]-cyclization of thiazolidinone-substituted thiosemicarbazones ( 3a,b and 6a,b) with N-arylmaleimides and aroylacrylic acids as equivalents of dielectrophilic synthon [C₂]^{2 +}, novel non-fused bicyclic thiazolidinones ( 4a–e, 5a–d, 7a–e, 8a–d ) were synthesized. The structures of the new compounds ( 4a–e, 5a–d, 7a–e, 8a–d ) were established on the basis of their elemental analysis and ¹H NMR and mass spectral data. Eight of the synthesized compounds were tested, and three of them displayed different levels of antitumor activity. The most efficient antitumor agent—2-{4-oxo-3-furylmethyl-2-[(4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)-hydrazono]-thiazolidin-5-yl}-N-4-chlorophenylacetamide ( 4d ) was found to be active against leukemia, melanoma, lung, colon, CNS, ovarian, renal, prostate, and breast cancer cell lines with mean lgGI₅₀ and lgTGI values of –5.35 and –4.78, respectively.

5-(4-Chlorophenyl)- and 5-phenylfuran-2(3H)-ones reacted with guanidine carbonate at the methylene group in the unsaturated lactone molecule, leading to the formation of 4-(2-aryl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl)-5-aryltetrahydrofuran-2-ones, while 5-(4-methylphenyl)furan-2(3H)-one under analogous conditions gave rise to N,N′-bis[4-(4-methylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl]guanidine. The reactions of 5-arylfuran-2(3H)- ones with thioacetamide afforded 4-aryl-N-{1-[5-aryl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene]ethyl}-4-oxobutanamides. The corresponding N-(4-aryl-4-oxobutanoyl)thioureas were obtained by heating 5-arylfuran-2(3H)-ones with thiourea.

Novel transformations of two kinds of chlorinated photo [2 + 2] cycloadducts of 2-pyrone-5-carboxylate

Novel reactions of 7,7-dichloro- and 7,7,8-trichloro-3-oxo-2-oxabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-4-ene-6-carboxylates 5 with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in alcohol gave pyrano[4,3-b]pyran-2,5-diones 8 via (Z)-(2H-pyran-2-on-3-yl)butenoates 7.

2-Acyl(aroyl)-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropenides: VI. Reaction with hydrogen halides

Reactions of 2-aroyl-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropenides with hydrogen halides in solvents of low dielectric permittivity result in the formation of 6-amino-2-aroyl-2-halopyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles. 2-Acyl-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropenides under similar conditions afford 2-(2-alkylidene-5-amino-4-cyano-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene)propanedinitriles. In solvents of high dielectric permittivity the result of the reaction depends on the nature of the hydrogen halide and the acyl(aroyl) substituent: With HCl and HBr 2-aroyl-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropenides form 2-(5-amino-2-aryl-2-halo-4-cyano-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene)-propanedinitriles, and 2-acyl-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropenides give 2-(2-alkylidene-5-amino-4-cyano-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene)propanedinitriles; with HI depending on the reaction conditions and the structure of the acyl substituent 2-(5-amino-2-aryl-4-cyano-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene)propanedinitriles, 2-(5-amino-4-cyano-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene) propane-dinitrile, 2-amino-4-(dimethoxybenzyl)-6-iodo-5-cyanonicotinamide, 4-amino-6-iodo-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyridine-7-carbonitrile, or 4-amino-6-iodo-3-oxo-1-ethylidene-1,3-dihydrofuro[3,4-c]pyridine-7-carbonitrile are obtained.

Xanthobilirubic acid and its amides. Synthesis,spectroscopy, and solution structures

Xanthobilirubic acid, 5-[1,5-didehydro-3-ethyl-4-methyl-5-oxo-2H-pyrrol-2-ylidene)methyl]-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrol-3-propanoic acid, its methyl ester, amide, N-methylamide and dimethylamide, and kryptopyrromethenone have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. In d₆-DMSO solution all pyrromethenones were monomeric, with lactam and pyrrole N-Hs H-bonded to solvent. In deuteriochloroform, the pyrromethenones preferred a dimeric form, with intramolecular H-bonding between the lactam C = 0 of one unit and the lactam and pyrrole N-Hs of the second.     

A new method for the synthesis of novel 6-quinoxalinylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

The reaction of the quinoxaline 1 with 4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazole-5-diazonium chloride 7 at room temperature gave 3-[α-(4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazol-5-ylhydrazono)methoxycarbonylmethyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxaline 8. The pmr spectrum of 8 in deuteriodimethylsulfoxide supported the presence of two tautomers 8-I and 8-II. Refluxing of 8 in N,N-dimethylformamide or acetic acid resulted in cyclization to afford 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 9. Compound 9 was also obtained directly by the reaction of 1 with 7 under reflux in better yield. The reaction of 9 with hydrazine hydrate provided the hydrazinium salt 10 , while the reactions of 9 with triethyl and trimethyl orthoformates in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]-7-undecene produced 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11a and 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11b , respectively. The chlorination of 11a with phosphoryl chloride gave 3-(3-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl)-8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxylpyrazolo[5,1-c]-[1,2,4]triazine 12 , whose reaction with morpholine afforded 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-[3-(morpholin-4-yl)-quinoxalin-2-yl]pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 13.     

Investigation of the reactions of fluorine containing 3-hydrazino-5H-1, 2, 4-triazino[5, 6-b]indoles with ethyl acetoacetate. Synthesis of some novel tetracyclic ring systems

Novel tetracyclic ring systems viz. 3-methyl-1-oxo-12H-1, 2, 4-triazepino[3′,4′:3, 4][1, 2, 4]triazino[5, 6-b]indole ( 4a ) and 3-methyl-5-oxo-12H-1, 2, 4-triazepino[4′,3′:2, 3][1, 2, 4]triazino[5, 6-b]indole ( 5a ), having angular and linear structures respectively, were synthesized by the cyclization of 3-oxobutanoic acid [5H-1, 2, 4-triazino-[5, 6-b]indole-3-yl]hydrazone ( 3a ). However, cyclization of 3b (R = CH_a, R¹ = R² = H) afforded the angular product 4b exclusively. Moreover, cyclization of 3c (R = R³ = H, R¹ = F) yielded 7-fluoro-1-0xo-10H-1, 3-imidazo[2′,3′:3, 4][1, 2, 4]triazino[5, 6-b]indole ( 6c ) and 7-fluoro-3-oxo-10H-1, 3-imidazo[3′,2′:2, 3][1, 2, 4]triazino-[5, 6-b]indole ( 7c ) instead of the expected triazepinone derivatives. Compound 3d (R = R¹ = H, R² = CF₃) also gave an imidazole derivative but only one angular product was obtained. In all these reactions, formation of the angular product involving cyclization at N-4 is favoured. Characterization of these products have been done by elemental analyses, ir, pmr, ¹⁹F nmr and mass spectral studies.     

Synthesis and biological activity evaluation of new thiazolidinone-diclofenac hybrid molecules

Abstract

A novel series of [2-(2,6-dichlorophenylamino)-phenyl]-acetic acid N`-3-(substituted)-4-thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl-hydrazide derivatives has been designed and synthesized. The structures of synthesized compounds were confirmed by their <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>13</sup>C NMR and LCMS spectroscopic data. Target compounds were screened for their in vitro anticancer activity according to US NCI protocols, in vitro trypanocidal activity toward Trypanosoma brucei brucei (Tbb) and evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity on the carrageenan edema model in rats. Biological screening data led to identification of compounds 3.3 ([2-(2,6-dichloro-phenylamino)-phenyl]-acetic acid N`-(4-oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-hydrazide) and 3.7 ([2-(2,6-dichloro-phenylamino)-phenyl]-acetic acid N`-(4-oxo-2-thioxo-3-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-hydrazide) which demonstrated moderate antitumor activity on the non-small-cell lung cancer NCI-H522 and colon cancer HCT-116 cell lines. Several hit compounds (3.2, 3.4) exhibited the promising and significant inhibition growth of the parasites at micromolar concentrations (IC₅₀ values of 4.8 and 7.06?μM, respectively). The synthesized compounds also demonstrated considerable anti-inflammatory effect comparable to the reference non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) diclofenac sodium or ketorolac tromethamine.
