Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of 3‐propyl‐2‐substitutedamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐ones as Analgesic and Anti‐Inflammatory Agents

A variety of novel 3‐propyl‐2‐substitutedamino‐quinazolin‐4(3H)‐ones were synthesized by reacting the amino group of 2‐hydrazino‐3‐propyl quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one with a variety of aldehydes and ketones.

The compound 2‐(1‐ethylpropylidene‐hydrazino)‐3‐propyl‐quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one ( SR2 ) emerged as the most active compound of the series, and it is more potent in its analgesic and anti‐inflammatory activities when compared with the reference standard diclofenac sodium.

The reaction of 3‐N‐(2‐mercapto‐4‐oxo‐4H‐quinazolin‐3‐yl)acetamide ( 1 ) with hydrazine hydrate yielded 3‐amino‐2‐methyl‐3H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolin‐9‐one ( 2 ). The reaction of 2 with o‐chlorobenzaldehyde and 2‐hydroxy‐naphthaldehyde gave the corresponding 3‐arylidene amino derivatives 3 and 4 , respectively. Condensation of 2 with 1‐nitroso‐2‐naphthol afforded the corresponding 3‐(2‐hydroxy‐naphthalen‐1‐yl‐diazenyl)‐2‐methyl‐3H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolin‐9‐one ( 5 ), which on subsequent reduction by SnCl₂ and HCl gave the hydrazino derivative 6. Reaction of 2 with phenyl isothiocyanate in refluxing ethanol yielded thiourea derivative 7. Ring closure of 7 subsequently cyclized on refluxing with phencyl bromide, oxalyl dichloride and chloroacetic acid afforded the corresponding thiazolidine derivatives 8, 9 and 10 , respectively. Reaction of 2‐mercapto‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 11 ) with hydrazine hydrate afforded 2‐hydrazino‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 12 ).

Condensation of 12 with isatin afforded 2‐[N‐(2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydroindol‐3‐ylidene)hydrazino]‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 16 ). 2‐(4‐Oxo‐3‐phenylamino‐3,4‐dihydroquinazolin‐2‐ylamino)isoindole‐1,3‐dione ( 17 ) was synthesized by the reaction of 12 with phthalic anhydride. All isolated products were confirmed by their ir, ¹H nmr, ¹³C nmr and mass spectra.

The starting material, 2‐(3‐bromopropylthio)‐3‐(phenyl) quinazolin‐4‐(3H)‐one was synthesized from aniline. When tested for their in vivo H₁‐antihistaminic activity on conscious guinea pigs, all the test compounds protected the animals from histamine‐induced bronchospasm significantly. Compound 2‐(3‐(4‐methylpiperazin‐1‐yl) propylthiothio)‐3‐(phenyl) quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one ( Ph5 ) emerged as the most active compound (73.23% protection) of the series when compared with the reference standard chlorpheniramine maleate (70.09% protection). Compound Ph5 shows negligible sedation (5.01 %) compared with chlorpheniramine maleate (29.58%). Therefore, compound Ph5 can serve as the leading molecule for further development into a new class of H₁‐antihistaminic agents.

The one‐pot reaction of ethyl‐2‐aminobenzoate with ethyl chloroformate and ethanol amine has afforded 3‐(2‐chloroethyl)‐2,4‐(1H,3H)‐quinazolinedione ( 2 ) (86%) that was then refluxed with 4‐(parafluorobenzoyl)piperidine ( 3 ) in ethyl methyl ketone in the presence of sodium carbonate to obtain free base of ketanserin (87%).

Synthesis,crystal structures and anti‐inflammatory activity of fluorine‐substituted 1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin‐2‐amine derivatives

Two fluorine‐substituted 1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin‐2‐amine (BQA) derivatives, namely 2‐amino‐4‐(2‐fluorophenyl)‐9‐methoxy‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin‐3‐ium chloride, ( 8 ), and 2‐amino‐4‐(4‐fluorophenyl)‐9‐methoxy‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin‐3‐ium chloride, ( 9 ), both C₁₉H₁₉FN₃O⁺·Cl^?, were generated by Michael addition reactions between guanidine hydrochloride and the α,β‐unsaturated ketones (E)‐2‐(2‐fluorobenzylidene)‐7‐methoxy‐3,4‐dihydronaphthalen‐1(2H)‐one, C₁₈H₁₅FO₂, ( 6 ), and (E)‐2‐(4‐fluorobenzylidene)‐7‐methoxy‐3,4‐dihydronaphthalen‐1(2H)‐one, ( 7 ). Because both sides of α,β‐unsaturated ketones ( 6 ) or ( 7 ) can be attacked by guanidine, we obtained a pair of isomers in ( 8 ) and ( 9 ). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction indicates that each isomer has a chiral C atom and both ( 8 ) and ( 9 ) crystallize in the achiral space group P2₁/c. The chloride ion, as a hydrogen‐bond acceptor, plays an important role in the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds. Thus, adjacent molecules are connected through intermolecular hydrogen bonds to generate a banded structure. Furthermore, these bands are linked into an interesting 3D network via hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions. Fortunately, the solubilities of ( 8 ) and ( 9 ) were distinctly improved and can exceed 50 mg ml^?1 in water or PBS buffer system (pH 7.4) at room temperature. In addition, the results of an investigation of anti‐inflammatory activity show that ( 8 ) and ( 9 ), with o‐ and p‐fluoro substituents, respectively, display more potential for inhibitory effects on LPS‐induced NO secretion than starting ketones ( 6 ) and ( 7 ).
