Synthesis and antioxidant screening of new 2-cyano-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acryloyl amide derivatives and some pyrazole-based heterocycles

Abstract

The high functionality compound namely 2-cyano-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acryloyl chloride (1) was utilized as a building block synthon via reactions with some nitrogen and sulfur nucleophilic reagents. The present work was planned to study the effect of 2-cyano group on the reactivity and stability of C₂–C₃ double bond toward different strong-to-weak nucleophiles, in addition to its facility of nucleophilic addition at C₂–C₃ double bond to construct new heterocyclic derivatives. The proclivity toward some mono-, 1,2-, 1,3-, 1,4-, and 1,5-binucleophiles was investigated. The reaction with 2-cyanoacetohydrazide was mainly dependent on the reaction conditions. Some new heterocycles integrated with pyrazole scaffold were successfully synthesized, such as benzoxazinone, indoline, isoindoline, pyrazolone, chromene, and pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives. Some of the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antioxidant activity using ABTS method, and the results revealed that some compounds exhibited promising inhibitory antioxidant activity.     

Synthesis and antiemetic activity of 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives

5-HT₃ receptor antagonists, such as Ondansetron, are used for anti-emesis after chemotherapy, radiotherapy and operations. Some Ondansetron analogs possessing piperazine ring as side chains were synthesized in our lab. Thus, one of the two carbonyl groups of starting material 1,3-cyclohexandione (1) was condensed with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride to form monophenylhydrazone (2). 1,2,3,9-Tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-one (3) was prepared from 2 via cyclization and rearranged in the presence of ZnCl₂. Through a methylation reaction, compound 3 was converted to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-4H-carbazol-4-one (4). 3-Dimethylaminomethyl substituted compound (5) was synthesized from 4 by a Mannich reaction in glacial acetic acid. Nine novel 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives (6a–6i) were synthesized through nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5 with piperazines. The structures of all the target compounds were determined by elemental analysis, IR, MS, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra. The results of preliminary pharmacological test show that part of the novel compounds have antiemetic activity comparable to that of the control Ondansetron. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2008, 28(2) (in Chinese)

Abstract

Ketene dithioacetal mediated chemo- and regioselective synthesis of a series of novel 1,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyrazole derivatives (4a-l) integrated with a bioactive indole nucleus was achieved by reacting substituted 2-(1-methyl-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-3,3-bis-(methylthio)-acrylonitrile (2) and substituted phenyl hydrazine hydrochloride (3) in the presence of a catalytic amount of anhydrous K₂CO₃ under reflux conditions. The structures were ascertained by ¹H NMR, NOESY, ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, and HRMS data. In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation of the synthesized compounds against MCF 7 (breast carcinoma) and normal Vero (monkey kidney) cell lines revealed that the compound 5-(5-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-1-(4-cyano-phenyl)-3-methylsulfanyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (4k) showed significant cytotoxicity against MCF 7 (GI₅₀ = 15.6 µM) with low cytotoxicity against normal Vero cell line. Most of the synthesized compounds were also found to possess excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant (DPPH, NO, H₂O₂ and SOR) potential.

Abstract

An expeditious one-pot synthesis of a novel heterocyclic system, 3′-(2-aminobenzimidazolyl)-2-phenyl spiro[4H-benzopyran-4,2′-thiazolidin]-4-ones, has been accomplished by condensing substituted hydrazinobenzimidazole, flavanone, and mercaptoacetic acid by conventional heating in ethanol or toluene, and in an ionic liquid, viz., 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate. Excellent yields (85%–90%) and higher purity are obtained in the ionic-liquid-mediated synthesis as compared with the conventional procedure (55%–60%). Further, these compounds were acylated with trifluoroacetic anhydride. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass spectral data, and elemental analysis. The compounds, upon evaluation for their antibacterial, antifungal, and insecticidal activities, exhibited excellent results.

ABSTRACT

3,4-Di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-nitroso-α-D-xylo-pentopyranosyl chloride (2) reacts with pyrazole to afford 1-[3,4-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-(Z)-hydroxyimino-α- (3) and β-D-threo-pentopyranosyl]pyrazole (4).

2-(2-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid derivatives of Group 4 metal alkoxides

Continued exploration of the coordination behavior of derivatives of 2-benzophenone-based ligands with metal alkoxides ([M(OR)₄]) was undertaken from the reaction of 2-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid (H₂-OBzA) with a series of Group 4 precursors. The products of these reactions were identified as: [(OR)₂Ti(μ-(c,c-OBzA))]₂ (OR?=?OCHMe₂ (OPrⁱ; 1 ?2tol); OCMe₃ (OBu^t; 2 ?THF); OCH₂CMe₃ (ONep; 3)), [[(OPrⁱ)₃Ti(μ-OPrⁱ)Ti(OPrⁱ)₂]₂(μ-(μ_c,μ-OBzA))₂]₂ (4), [(ONep)₃Zr(μ-ONep)₂Zr(ONep)₂]₂(μ-(c,μ-OBzA)₂) (5 ?tol), [(py)(OBu^t)₃Zr]₂(μ-(c,c-OBzA)) (6), [(OBu^t)₂Hf(μ-OBu^t)]₂(μ-(c,η¹-OBzA)) (7) where ‘c’?=?chelating or η²; ‘μ’?=?bridging or η¹,η¹(O,O’); and μ_c?=?bridging chelating or η¹,η¹(O,O’); η^2?:?η¹. The metal centers for each of these compounds adopt a pseudo-octahedral geometry employing the OBzA ligand in numerous binding modes. The different functional oxygens (carboxylate, hydroxyl, and carbonyl) were employed in a variety of coordination modes for 1–7. The complexity of these OBzA-modified compounds is driven by a combination of the coordination behavior of the OBzA moieties, the size of the metal cation, and the pendant chain of the OR ligand. Solution NMR indicates a complex structure exists in solution that was considered to be consistent with the solid-state structure.     

PHOSPHONOMETHYLATION OF AMINOALKANOLS PREPARATION OF 4-(PHOSPHONOMETHYL)-2-HYDROXY-2-OXO-1,4,2-OXAZAPHOSPHORINANES1

Abstract

Treatment of aminoalkanols 1 with phosphorous acid and formaldehyde in presence of conc. hydrochloric acid gave mixtures of [(2-hydroxy alkyl)imino] dimethylene diphosphonic acids 3 and 4-(phosphonomethyl)-2-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,4,2-oxazaphosphorinanes 2 from which 2 were isolated as crystalline solids. Similar treatment of 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol 8 gave a complex mixture from which dimethylene diphosphonic acid of 5-amino-5-methyl-1,3-dioxane 9 was isolated. 2-Aminoethanethiol, when subjected to phosphonomethylation. gave an unexpected novel quarternary nitrogen product 11. N-Alkylaminoalkanols 4 on phosphonomethylation gave 3:1 mixtures of [N-alkyl-N-(2-hydroxyalkyl)amino] methane phosphonic acid 6 and N-alkyl-2-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,4,2-oxazaphosphorinane 5. Treatment of the crude mixtures of 5 and 6 with aqueous sodium hydroxide gave disodium salts of [N-alkyl-N-(2-hydroxyalkyl)amino] methanephosphonic acid 7. The ratio of the cyclic to the open chain structures obtained as well as the formation of any unexpected novel products is dependent on the structure of the aminoalkanol that is phosphonomethylated. The ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P spectra are reported for all new compounds.

Abstract

A series of novel α-amino phosphonate derivatives containing both pyridine and 1,2,3-triazole moieties 4 were synthesized via a multi-step reaction. First, the condensation of 5-amino-1-[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl) methyl]-4-cyano-1H-1,2,3-triazole with various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of magnesium perchlorate afforded imines 3 in moderate yields; second, imines 3 reacted with dialkyl phosphites or triphenyl phosphite to give the title compounds 4 in moderate to good yields. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data (IR, ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR, ESI-MS) and elemental analysis. The preliminary bioassay (in vitro) indicated that some of the title compounds 4 possessed moderate herbicidal activities against dicotyledonous plants (Brassica campestris L) at a concentration of 100 mg/L. However, compounds 4 did not exhibit herbicidal activities against Brassica campestris L at a concentration of 10 mg/L.
