Synthesis and In-Vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Novel Aminophosphinic Acids Containing Cyclobutane and 1,3-Thiazole

Abstract

The compounds {[4-(3-methyl-3-aryl(mesityl-phenyl-tetralino)cyclobutyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]amino}(aryl)methyl-phosphinic acids 2a–l were prepared by condensation of 2-amino-4-(3-aryl(mesityl-phenyl-tetralino)-3-methylcyclobutyl) thiazoles 1a–c with various aromatic aldehydes and hypophosphorous acid through a one-pot reaction. The characterizations of these compounds were obtained by elemental analyses, infrared (IR) spectra, and ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) techniques. The synthesized compounds were tested in vitro against one Gram-positive and two Gram-negative bacterial strains, one mycobacterial strain, and a fungus Candida albicans. Compound 2f showed significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus, whereas the others had no remarkable activity on this strain. Compound 2g was found to be more active than the others against Mycobacterium fortuitum at an MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) value of 32 μg/mL. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of 2a–l were also compared with various standard drugs.

One-Pot Green Synthesis of 3'-(2-Aminobenzimidazolyl)-2-Phenyl Spiro[4H-Benzopyran-4,2'-Thiazolidin]-4-Ones and Acylation Using Trifluoroacetic Anhydride

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.

Synthesis and Characterization of [1,2,4,6]Thiatriazino[2,3-a][1,3]benzimidazol-1(2H)-one and [1,3,5]Thiadiazino[3,4-a][1,3]benzimidazol-2-imine

Abstract

The reaction of thionyl chloride with amidines 2, derived from N-benzimidazol-2-yl imidates 1, leads to [1,2,4,6]thiatriazino[2,3-a][1,3]benzimidazol-1(2H)-one 3 in good yields. [1,3,5]Thiadiazino[3,4-a][1,3]benzimidazol-2-imine 4 was prepared by condensation of NaSCN with benzimidazol-2-yl imidate 1. The isolated compounds 3 and 4 were identified by spectroscopic methods including IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR as well as elemental analyses and MS of 3d and 4b.

Abstract

Without a catalyst and under solvent-free conditions, 2,3-disubstituted-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one 5a–j derivatives were synthesized efficiently via the three-component reaction of aryl hydrazide, aromatic aldehyde, and mercaptoacetic acid. All the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis.

Phase Transfer–Catalyzed,One-Pot Synthesis of Some Novel N-Pyrimidinyl-N′-nicotinyl Thiourea Derivatives

Abstract

A new series of acyl thiourea derivatives were synthesized in one-pot using PEG-600 as the phase transfer catalyst (PTC). The structures of title compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, IR, MS, and elemental analysis. In addition, the fungicidal activity of the acyl thiourea derivatives were tested, which showed that most of them exhibit moderate activity.

Synthesis and Herbicidal Activity of O,O-Dialkyl(phenyl)-N-{1-[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl]-4-cyano-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl}-1-amino-1-substitutedbenzyl-phosphonates

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.

Abstract

Some new monophenylantimony(III) compounds having the formulas have been synthesized by reaction of phenylantimony(III) dichloride with the sodium salt of cyclic dithiocarbamates in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios. These newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and their plausible structures have been proposed on the basis of IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C), and ESI-mass studies. Sodium salts of cyclic dithiocarbamates and their corresponding organoantimony(III) derivatives (1–8) have been screened for antimicrobial activity against E. coli, P. aeruginosa (Bacteria) and A. niger and A. flavus (Fungi).

Synthesis and Characterization of Bidentate Cyclotriphosphazene Derivatives

Abstract

Three novel cyclotriphosphazene derivatives were designed. Title compounds were synthesized by the reaction of the dichlorocyclotriphosphazene derivative [N₃P₃Cl₂(O₂C₁₂H₈)₂] with the potassium salt of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and subsequent reduction of aldehyde groups to alcohol groups using sodium borohydride. The bromination reaction was carried out using PBr₃ to give N₃P₃(O₂C₁₂H₈)₂ (OC₆H₄-p-CH₂Br)₂. This compound was employed in reactions with macrocyclic polyamide, imidazole, or morpholine to produce title compounds. The target compounds were characterized using ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR, and electrospray ionization mass spectra (ESI-MS).
