Synthesis of novel pyrimidine derivatives with (pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio and phenylamino moieties and evaluation of their antifungal activity

A series of novel pyrimidine derivatives with (pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio and phenylamino moieties were synthesized from ethyl acetoacetate, thiourea, 3-pyridinylmethyl chloride hydrochloride, and substituted anilines by multi-step reactions. The structures of the target compounds were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and elemental analysis. The in vitro antifungal activities against Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum were evaluated. The result showed that N-phenyl-6-methyl-2- ((pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio) pyrimidin-4-amine (4a) displayed high inhibition activity against Botrytis cinerea with 87.5%inhibition at 100 µg/mL; 4a, and N-(4-isopropylphenyl)-6-methyl-2-((pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio)pyrimidin-4-amine (4c), N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-((pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio)pyrimidin-4-amine (4d) and N-(2-hydroxy-5-chloro)-6-methyl-2-((pyridin-3-ylmethyl)thio)pyrimidin- 4-amine (4h) exhibited sufficient activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum with 86.6% –93.7% inhibitions at the same concentration.     

Synthesis, characterization and pharmacologically active sulfamethoxazole polymers

Three anti-microbial pharmaceutical drugs were synthesized from two different synthetic routes. 4-acrylamido-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzenesulfonamide (AMBS) and 4-methacrylamido-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzenesulfonamide (MMBS) were prepared by reacting acryloyl chloride and methacryloyl chloride with 4-amino-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzenesulfonamide in the presence of triethylamine. N-[4-sulfamido-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)phenyl]maleimide (SMPM) was prepared by reacting maleic anhydride with 4-amino-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzenesulfanamide. These monomers (AMBS, MMBS and SMPM) were polymerized using BPO as a free radical initiator. The pharmacological activity of SMPM compound depends on the functional group in the structure and small structural changes has resulted in higher pharmacological activity of sulfamethoxazole. Thus, maleimide polymer drug conjugate showed greater anti-microbial activity when compared with that of the native drug.     

SYNTHESIS OF NEW 8-METHOXY-4-METHYL-3-(N-[2′-AMINO-(1′,3′,4′)THIA/OXA-DIAZOL-5′-YL]-SUBSTITUTED METHYL)-AMINO THIOCOUMARINS

8-Methoxy-4-methyl-3-(N-[2′-amino-(1′, 3′,4′)thia/oxa-diazol-5′-yl] substituted methyl)-amino thiocoumarins 6(a–f) and 7(a–f), were synthesized by using the unreported 8-methoxy-4-methyl-3-[N-(2′-oxo-2′-methoxy-1′-substituted ethan-1′-yl) amino thiocoumarins as key intermediates.     

New method for the preparation of O-carbamoyl derivatives in the 4-hydroxyaminoimidazolidin-2-one series

The corresponding 4-(O-carbamoylhydroxyamino)imidazolidin-2-ones were obtained by cyclization of O,N-dicarbamoyl derivatives of N-(3-oximino-2-methyl-2-butyl)- and N-(1-oximino-2-cyclohexyl)methylamines in alkaline media. It was shown that the carbamoylation of 1-methyl-4,5-tetramethylene-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-aminoimidazolidin-2-one gives, respectively, an O- or N-carbamoyl derivative, depending on whether it is carried out in alkaline or neutral solutions.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 399–401, March, 1984.

Energetic quaternary salts containing bi(1,2,4-triazoles)

New energetic salts (2, 3, 9, 10, and 11) were synthesized via the protonation of 4,4'-bi(1,2,4-triazole) or N-4-(1,2,4-triazole)-N-3-(4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole)amine with nitric acid or perchloric acid or 5-nitro-tetrazole. The structures of 4,4'-bi(1,2,4-triazolium) nitrate (2), N,N-dimethyl-N'-(5-methyl-tetrazole)methanimidamide (8), and N-4-(1,2,4-triazole)-N-3-(4-methyl-1,2,4-triazolium)amine perchlorate (10) were confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray analysis. The physical properties and heats of combustion of the new ionic salts were measured, and the heats of formation were also determined.     

Conversion of N-(1-oximino-1-phenylpropyl-2)-α-phenylnitrone into imidazole N-oxide derivatives

Treatment of N-(1-anti-oximino-1-phenylpropyl-2)--phenylnitrone with benzoic anhydride in benzene leads to simultaneous formation of benzoyl derivatives both of the corresponding nitrone and of 1-hydroxymethyl-2, 4-diphenyl-3-imidazoline-3-oxide. Treatment of the latter with hydrogen chloride led to the isolation of 5-methyl-2, 4-diphenylimidazol-3-oxide. Its isomer 4-methyl-2, 5-diphenylimidazol-3-oxide is formed by the action of HCl on syn and anti isomers of N-(1-oximino-1-phenylpropyl-2)--phenylnitrone. IR and UV spectra are used to determine the structures of the compounds, which are confirmed by synthesis.

Reactions with diazoazoles. Part VI. Unequivocal synthesis of 3-methyl-3h-azolotetrazoles. Correction of the formerly described 3-methylazolotetrazoles in favour of mesoionic 2-methylazolotetrazoles

3-Methyl-3H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles 2 and 3-methyl-6-phenyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole (4) have been unequivocally synthesized by annulation of the tetrazole moiety to the pyrazole resp. 1,2,4-triazole system. The constitution of some N-methyl substituted azolotetrazoles, formerly described as 3-methyl-3H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles 2, 3-methyl-6-phenyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole (4) and 1-methyl-6-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazole (5), has to be revised in favour of the corresponding mesoionic 2-methyl derivatives 2′, 4′, 5′. The structures of 3-methyl-3H- as well as of 2-methyl-2H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole derivatives 2a, 2c, 2′a have been determined by X-ray analyses. The azapentalenic system is aromatic in all three measured compounds and mesoionic in the case of the 2-methyl-2H- substitution pattern. The phenyl and ester substituents are coplanar with the azapentalene system. 3-, 2-, and 1-Methylpyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles exhibit different behaviour when allowed to react with stannous chloride or sodium ethoxide. Azolotetrazoles with a methyl substituent at N-1, N-2 or N-3 of the tetrazole moiety can be distinguished by a combination of ¹H and ¹³C nmr with respect to the chemical shifts of the N-methyl group and the bridgehead carbon. Results of semiempirical calculations of the pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole anion and of its N-methyl derivatives are discussed.     

Synthesis and reactions of 1-(2-pyridyl)-3-methyl-4-chloro-5-formyl-6,7-dihydroindazoles

The Vilsmeier formylation of 1-(2-pyridyl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole and its 6-phenyl derivative gives 1-(2-pyridyl)-3-methyl-4-chloro-5-formyl-6,7-dihydroindazoles. Reactions of these derivatives with different N- and C-nucleophilic agents, including bisnucleophiles, were studied as a means of obtaining new 4- and 5-functional derivatives of indazole and its condensed systems.Riga Technical University, Riga LV-1658, Latvia.

Electrochemical synthesis and structural characterization of silver(I) complexes of N-2-pyridyl sulfonamide ligands with different nuclearity: influence of the steric hindrance at the pyridine ring and the sulfonamide group on the structure of the complexes

A new series of silver complexes, [AgL], of the anionic forms of potentially bidentate N-2-pyridyl sulfonamide ligands [N-(3-methyl-2-pyridyl)-p-toluenenesulfonamide (HTs3mepy), N-(3-methyl-2-pyridyl)mesitylenesulfonamide (HMs3mepy), N-(4-methyl-2-pyridyl)-p-toluenesulfonamide (HTs4mepy), and N-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)mesitylenesulfonamide (HMs6mepy)] have been prepared by an electrochemical procedure. In addition, heteroleptic complexes of composition [AgLL'] (L' = 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridine) were obtained when the coligand L' was added to the electrolytic phase. The complexes were characterized by microanalysis, IR and (1)H NMR spectroscopy, and LSI mass spectrometry. In the cases of the compounds [Ag(Ts3mepy)](n)() (1), [Ag(4)(Ms3mepy)(4)] (2a), [Ag(Ms3mepy)](n)() (2b), [Ag(4)(Ms6mepy)(4)] (3a), [Ag(2)(Ms6mepy)(2)](n)() (3b), [Ag(2)(Ms3mepy)(2)(phen)(2)] (5), [Ag(2)(Ms6mepy)(2)phen] (7), and [Ag(2)(Ts4mepy)(2)(bipy)(2)] (8), characterization was also carried out by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2b present a polymer structure formed by an {AgN(2)} digonal core. Compounds 2a and 3a are tetranuclear and also have a distorted {AgN(2)} digonal core. Compound 3b is based on binuclear distorted {AgN(2)} digonal units joined by an intermolecular sulfonyl oxygen atom to produce a stairlike polymer structure. The heteroleptic complexes 5 and 8 are dimeric with a distorted {AgN(4)} tetrahedral geometry, while compound 7 shows two different geometries around the metal, distorted {AgN(2)} digonal and {AgN(4)} tetrahedral. The supramolecular structures of all species are organized by pi,pi-stacking, C-H...pi, or C-H...O interactions.
