Synthesis and properties of (<Emphasis Type="Italic">E</Emphasis>)-4-[alkyl(aryl)iminomethyl]-2-methoxy(ethoxy)phenyl adamantane-1-carboxylates

Condensation of 4-formyl-2-methoxy(ethoxy)phenyl adamantane-1-carboxylates with aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, and aromatic amines gave the corresponding adamantane-containing Schiff bases as E isomers with respect to the CH=N azomethine bond. The reaction of 2-methoxy-4-(naphthalen-2-yliminomethyl)phenyl adamantane-1-carboxylate with cyclohexane-1,3-dione and dimedone led to the formation of 2-methoxy-4-(11-oxo-7,8,9,10,11,12-hexahydrobenzo[a]acridin-12-yl)phenyl adamantane-1-carboxylates. Quantum-chemical calculations of the energies of formation of E and Z isomers of some of the synthesized Schiff bases were performed.     

Synthesis and spectral studies of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes of tridentate Schiff bases of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide

Summary Metal(II) chelates of Schiff bases derived from the condensation of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide with o-aminophenol (KAAP), o-aminothiophenol (KAAT) or o-aminobenzoic acid (KAAB) have been prepared and characterized. The complexes are of the type [M(N₂X)]₂ for M = Cu^II and M(NX)₂·nH₂O for M = Ni^II, Co^II and VO^II (X = phenolic oxygen, thiophenolic sulphur or carboxylic oxygen; n = 0 or 2). Conductivity data indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The Schiff bases behave as dibasic tridentate ligands in their copper(II) complexes and as monobasic bidentate ligands in their nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes. The subnormal magnetic moments of the copper(II) complexes are ascribed to an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction arising from dimerization. Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes are trans octahedral whereas vanadyl(II) complexes are square pyramidal     

REACTION OF SCHIFF BASE OF THIOHYDRAZIDES WITH P(NR2)3

Abstract

Three pathways were observed in the reactions of Schiff bases of Thiohydrazides with P(NR₂)₃. (a) MeS-R₂N exchange: MeS-C([dbnd]S)-NHN[dbnd]CHPh (1) reacted with P(NR₂)₃ led to new Schiff bases, R₂N-C([dbnd]S)-NHN[dbnd]CH = Ph (2). (b) Cleavage of C[dbnd]S bond and the formation of P[dbnd]S bond: H₂N-C([dbnd]S)-NHN[dbnd]CH = Ph (3) reacted with P(NR₂)₃ gave rise to the thiophosphoric amide. (Et₂N)₂P([dbnd]S)-NH-CH = N-N[dbnd]CH-Ph (4). (c) Formation of thiadiazole and triazole: Schiff bases 2a and H₂N(MeS)C = N-N[dbnd]CH-Ph (6) reacted with P(NR₂)₃ respectively and produced 5-dimethylamino-2-phenyl-2,3-(2H)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (5) and 5-methylthio-2-phenyl-2,3-(2H)-1,3,4-triazole (7).

Cobalt(II) and nickel(II) chelates of some 5-pyrazolone-based,Schiff-base ligands

The cobalt(II) and nickel(II) chelates of Schiff bases, derived by condensing 4-butyryl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (BMPP) with o-, m-, p-phenylenediamine, benzidine, and ethylenediamine have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, thermogravimetric analyses (TGA), conductance data, magnetic measurements, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass, and electronic spectroscopies. Each of the Schiff bases was an ONNO donor to metal forming chelates formulated as [M(L)(H₂O)₂] _n with M = Ni(II) and Co(II) and L is the di-anion of the Schiff base. The monomeric (n = 1) and dimeric (n = 2) species of these metal chelates, based on available evidence, are suggested.     

Synthesis of 3-[4-(1-Benzofuran-2-yl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-2-(4-aryl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one Derivatives as Biological Agents

A protocol for the synthesis of 3-[4-(1-benzofuran-2-yl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-2-(4-aryl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives (5a–e) has been developed from 1-(1-benzofuran-2-yl)-2-bromoethanone (2),which served as a key intermediate for the synthesis of the title compounds. The reaction of compound 2 with thiourea furnished 4-(1-benzofuran-2-yl)-1,3-thiazol-2-amine 3, which upon further reaction with various aromatic aldehydes, gave Schiff bases 4a–e. These Schiff bases, when treated with thioacetic acid in the presence of catalytic amount of anhydrous ZnCl₂, yielded thiazolidinone derivatives 5a–e. All the newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by analytical and spectral data and screened for their antimicrobial and analgesic activity.

All these derivatives have been characterized by elemental analyses and molecular weight measurements, and structures have been proposed on the basis of IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C), and FAB-mass studies. Schiff bases and their corresponding organoantimony derivatives have been screened for antimicrobial activity against Aspergillus flavus (fungus) and Escherichia coli (bacteria).     

Synthesis and characterization of cobalt(II) and iron(III) complexes with the Schiff bases:N-(p-methylbenzylidene)-2-aminobenzimidazole andN-(benzylidene)-2-(2′-aminophenyl)-benzimidazole

Summary Reactions of CoX₂ (X=Cl, Br or NCS) and FeCl₃ with the Schiff bases:N-(p-methylbenzylidene)-2-aminobenzimidazole (pmbabi) andN-(benzylidene)-2-(2-aminophenyl) benzimidazole (bapbi) yield complexes of general formula CoL₂X₂ [except for Co(bapbi)(NCS)₂] and FeLCl₃. All complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, i.r. spectroscopy conductivity and magnetic measurements at different temperatures; solid state and solution electronic spectra are reported for cobalt(II) complexes. The results show that the latter are pseudotetrahedral, the ligand acting as monodentate, except for Co(bapbi) (NCS)₂. On the other hand, the iron compounds probably contain pentacoordinated metal.     

Synthesis and characterization of diorganotin(IV) complexes of tridentate Schiff bases: crystal structure of [N-(3-hydroxypyridine-2-yl)-5-chlorosalicylideneiminato]dimethyltin(IV)

Some five-coordinated dimethyltin(IV) complexes of the type Me₂SnL (where L is the anion of a bifunctional tridentate Schiff base) were synthesized. These Schiff bases are N-(3-hydroxypyridine-2-yl)-3-methoxysalicylideneimine, HOC₆H₃OCH₃CH=NC₅H₃NOH (1), N-(3-hydroxypyridine-2-yl)-3-ethoxysalicylideneimine, HOC₆H₃OC₂H₅CH=NC₅H₃NOH (2), N-(3-hydroxypyridine-2-yl)-5-chlorosalicylideneimine, HOC₆H₃ClCH=NC₅H₃NOH (3), and N-(3-hydroxypyridine-2-yl)-3-methoxy-5-bromosalicylideneimine, HOC₆H₂OCH₃BrCH=NC₅H₃NOH (4). Dimethyltin(IV) complex of 3 (3a) was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction method and a coordination geometry that is nearly halfway between trigonal–bipyramidal and square pyramidal arrangement was found. Dimethyltin complexes of (1), (2), and (4) were also prepared and characterized by the comparison of their elemental analysis and ¹H-NMR-, IR-, UV- and mass spectral data with those of (3a). For example, in the ¹H-NMR spectra, the ²J(¹¹⁹Sn-¹H) in the Sn-CH₃ moiety have values between 80 Hz and 90 Hz, typical of five-coordinated tin species. By using these values in Lockart’s Equations, H₃C–Sn–CH₃ angles in the complexes were estimated to lie between 130° and 145°. X-ray diffraction value for 3a, confirms this estimate within 3.4% relative deviation (129.7° exp. Vs. 134.9° estimate).

Synthesis and characterisation of (Z)-1-[2(triphenylstannyl)vinyl]-l-cyclododecanol, c-(CH₂)₁₁C(OH)CH=CHSnPh₃, are reported, together with its halogenation by I₂, Br₂ and ICI to yield derivatives of the types c-(CH₂)₁₁C(OH)CH=CHSnPhs_?nX_n (n=1, 2; X=I, Br, Cl, respectively). The molecular structures of two compounds have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The tin atom exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry in the crystal of (Z)-l-[2–(triphenylstannyI)vinyl]-l-cyclododecanol, but a trigonal bipyramidal geometry in the monoiodo-derivative (Z)-l-[2]-(diphenyliodo-stannyl)vinyl)-1-cyclododecanol and other derivatives, in which significant intramolecular coordinative interaction HO→Sn ia observed. And the formation of a five-membered tin containing ring is significant for their antitumour activities.     

Condensation reactions of vinyl and ethyl derivatives of 2-amino-and 2-formylimidazoles

New Schiff bases of 1-vinyl- and 1-ethyl-substituted imidazoles and benzimidazoles were synthesized. The condensation reactions of 2-amino- and 2-formylimidazoles with 2-aminobenzimidazoles are virtually independent of the nature of the substituent (CH=CH₂ or Et) at position 1 of the heterocycle. The structures of the azomethines synthesized were established by¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 971–974, May, 1999.

The Schiff bases behave as dibasic and tridentate ligands coordinating through the ONO donor system and form complexes of the types NiL · 3H₂O, MnL · 2H₂O, CoL · 2H₂O, CuL, ZnL · H₂O, UO₂L · MeOH and MoO₂L · MeOH (where LH₂ = Schiff base). The copper(II) complexes exhibit subnormal magnetic moments indicating the presence of an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction, whereas the nickel(II), cobalt(II) and manganese(II) complexes behave normally at room temperature. Zinc(II), dioxouranium(VI) and dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes are diamagnetic; the zinc (II) complexes are tetrahedral, the copper(II) complexes are square planar, all the other complexes are octahedral. Thev(C=N),v(C-O),v(N-N) andv(C-S) shifts have been measured in order to locate the Schiff base coordination sites.

The new complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (infrared, electronic, ¹H, ³¹P, and ¹³C NMR) data. An octahedral structure has been assigned for all the complexes. The new complexes are efficient catalysts for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones and also exhibit catalytic activity for the carbon–carbon coupling reactions.     

Synthesis,characterization and biological activities of some nickel(II) complexes of tridentate NNS ligands formed by condensation of 2-acetyl-and 2-benzoylpyridines with S-alkyldithiocarbazates

Summary Nickel(II) complexes of four tridentate NNS Schiff base ligands, derived by condensing 2-acetyl-and 2-benzoylpyridine with S-methyl- and S-benzoyldithiocarbazate, have been prepared and characterized. The monoligated complexes, [Ni(NNS)X] (NNS = anionic ligand; X = Cl, Br, NCS, I) are diamagnetic and square-planar, whereas the bis-ligand complexes, [Ni(NNS)₂] are paramagnetic and tetragonal. The Schiff bases are fungitoxic towards A. solani, F. equisetti and M. phaseolina (approaching the toxicity of the commercial fungicide Nystatin), but the nickel(II) complexes are less fungitoxic than the free ligands.
