Intramolecular synergism,an explanation for the enhanced fungitoxicity of halo-8-quinolinols

Summary An antifungal study againstAspergillus niger,A. oryzae,Myrothecium verrucaria, andTrichoderma viride in Yeast Nitrogen Base supplemented with 1%D-glucose and 0.088%L-asparagine was carried out using 8-quinolinol and 3-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 3,6-, and 5,7-chlorinated and brominated-8-quinolinols. Binary mixtures of 3- and 6-halo- and 5- and 7-halo-8-quinolinols were intermolecularly synergistic. MICs of the monohalo synergistic mixtures admixed with a MIC of the corresponding dihalo-8-quinolinols were not synergistic. The dihalo-8-quinolinols with substituents in positions corresponding to those of the synergistic binary mixtures appeared to attack the same sites of action as the binary pairs. The enhanced activities of 3,6- and 5,7-dichloro-8-quinolinols and 3,6- and 5,7-dibromo-8-quinolinols are believed to be due to intramolecular synergism. The greater fungitoxicity of 5-, 6-, and 7-monohalo-8-quinolinols over 8-quinolinol can also be explained as due to intramolecular synergism. 3,6-Dihalo- and 5,7-dihalo-8-quinolinols formed synergistic pairs of compounds.

Intramolekularer Synergismus als Erklärung für die erhöhte Fungitoxizität von halogenierten 8-Chinolinolen

Zusammenfassung 8-Chinolinol und verschiedene halogenierte 8-Chinolinole wurden auf ihre Fungitoxizität gegenüberAspergillus niger,A. oryzae,Myrothecium verrucaria undTrichoderma viride untersucht. Binäre Mischungen von 3- und 6-Halogen- bzw. 5- und 7-Halogen-8-chinolinol zeigten intermolekularen Synergismus, während bei Mischungen von mono- und dihalogenierten 8-Chinolinolen kein entsprechender Effekt beobachtet werden konnte. Die erhöhte Aktivität von 3,6-und 5,7-Dichlor-8-chinolinol und 3,6- und 5,7-Dibrom-8-chinolinol wird durch intramolekularen Synergismus erklärt, desgleichen die höhere Aktivität monohalogenierter 8-Chinolinole gegenüber 8-Chinolinol. 3,6-Dihalogenierte und 5,7-dihalogenierte 8-Chinolinole bilden synergistische Paare.

Polymerization of 1-allenylpyrroles

1-Allenylpyrroles are polymerized under the conditions of thermal (60 °C) and radical initiation at both 1,2- and 2,3-positions of the allenyl group to form soluble reactive polymers with various ethylenic, including polyvinylic, fragments. The possibility to prepare 1-allenylpyrrole copolymers has been demonstrated using 1-vinylpyrrolidone and ethylene glycol vinylglycidyl ether as an example. Doped layers based on poly-1-allenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole are photosensitive. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 1958–1961, November, 1997.

Synthesis and spectroscopic study of hexadecaalkyl-substituted rare-earth diphthalocyanines

New hexadecaalkyl-substituted diphthalocyanine complexes of lanthanides ^RPc₂Ln (R = Et, or Bu; Ln = Lu, Dy, or Eu) were synthesized by three methods: in solution in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene, in a melt of a mixture of the reagents, and under microwave irradiation. The first of the above-mentioned procedures has an advantage for the preparation of Dy and Eu diphthalocyanines, whereas the melt synthesis is a method of choice for the preparation of Lu complexes. The reaction time decreases in going from the first to the third method. The structures of the complexes were confirmed by mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and electronic absorption spectroscopy.

Preparation and Fungitoxicity of Some Dibromo-8-quinolinols

Summary.  2,5-, 3,5-, 3,6-, 3,7-, 4,5-, 5,6-, 5,7-, and 6,7-dibromo-8-quinolinols were prepared and tested against six fungi (Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Myrothecium verrucaria, Trichoderma viride, Mucor cirinelloides, and Trichophyton mentagrophytes) in Sabouraud dextrose broth. Most of the compounds were strongly antifungal, inhibiting five of the fungi below 1μg/cm³, but were somewhat less fungitoxic than the corresponding chloro analogues. M. cirinelloides was not inhibited by any of the compounds except 4,5-dibromo-8-quinolinol. This high level of fungitoxicity is attributed to intramolecular synergism. Received December 28, 2000.

Synthesis and characterization of Mn(II), Au(III) and Zr(IV) hippurates complexes

Mn(II), Au(III) and Zr(III) complexes with N-benzoylglycine (hippuric acid) (abbreviation hipH) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic measurements, spectral methods (mid-infrared, (1)H NMR, mass, X-ray powder diffraction and UV/vis spectra) and simultaneous thermal analysis (TG and DTG) techniques. The molar conductance measurements proved that all hippuric acid complexes are non-electrolytes. The electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements were used to infer the structures. The IR spectra of the ligand and its complexes are used to identify the type of bonding. The kinetic thermodynamic parameters such as: E*, DeltaH*, DeltaS* and DeltaG* are estimated from the DTG curves. The free ligand and its complexes have been studied for their possible biological antifungal activity.

Complexation and thermogravimetric investigation on tin(II) and tin(IV) with norfloxacin as antibacterial agent

The interaction of tin(II) and tin(IV) chlorides with norfloxacin (NOR) has been investigated. Elemental analysis, infrared, mass spectra and thermal analysis have been used to characterize the isolated solid complexes. The results support the formation of complexes with the formula [Sn(NOR)₂]Cl₂·4H₂O and [Sn(NOR)₃]Cl₄. The infrared spectra of the isolated solid complexes suggested that NOR act as bidentate ligand through the carbonyl oxygen atom and one oxygen atom of the carboxylic group forming six-membered rings with the tin ions. The interpretation, mathematical analysis and evaluation of kinetic parameters of thermogravimetric (TGA) and its differential (DTG), such as entropy of activation, pre-exponential factors, activation energy evaluated by using Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger equations are carried out for two complexes. The data obtained indicate that the two complexes decompose in one stage and general mechanisms describing the decomposition are suggested. Furthermore, the electronic, and ¹H?NMR spectra have been studied.     

Spectrophotometric and spectroscopic studies of complexation of 8-hydroxyquinoline with π acceptor metadinitrobenzene in different polar solvents

The complexation of electron donor–acceptor complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline (8HQ) and metadinitrobenzene (MNB) have been studied spectrophotometrically and thermodynamically in different polar solvent at room temperature. A new absorption band due to charge transfer (CT) transition is observed in the visible region. A new theoretical model has been developed which take into account the interaction between electronic subsystem of 8HQ and MNB. The results indicate the extent of charge transfer complexes (CTCs) formation to be more in less polar solvents. Stoichiometry of the complex was found to be 1:1 by straight line method and ¹H NMR between donor and acceptor at the maximum absorption bands. Ionization potential (I_D) and resonance energy (R_N) were determined from the CT transition energy in different solvents. The formation constants of the complexes were determined in different polar solvents from which ΔG° formation of the complexes was estimated and also extinction coefficient of the charge transfer complex (CTC) was calculated. Oscillator strength, transition dipole strengths and maximum wavelength of the CTC (λ_CT) in various solvents and IR spectra of the CTC have also been discussed. It has been observed that all parameters described above changed with change in polarity and concentration of donor.     

Synthesis and Stereochemistry of New N-Substituted Cytisine Derivatives

A series of new N-substituted cytisine derivatives was synthesized. The ¹ H and ¹³ C NMR spectra of certain compounds exhibit a doubled set of signals. This is explained by formation of diastereomeric pairs in compounds containing an asymmetric center in the substituents. The signal splitting in -COHC=CHCO ₂ H and HC=O (formyl) derivatives is explained by the existence of Z and E invertomers. Their stereochemical features are discussed. Amide conjugation is confirmed by temperature experiments.     

Preparation of trisodium O-monoalkyl and O-monoaryl diphosphates

Trisodium O-methyl, O-butyl, O-phenyl, and O-(4-nitrophenyl) diphosphates were synthesized from sodium dimethylamido-O-(2-cyanoethyl) phosphate and O-alkyl-and O-aryl phosphoric acids. While in the previously described method, sodium hydroxide was used for the preparation of O-phenyl diphosphate, in our current work, we present an improved protocol, where sodium methoxide is used to increase the yields of O-alkyl and O-aryl diphosphates. The structures of final compounds were determined by ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR, and IR spectroscopy. The sodium O-alkyl- and O-aryl diphosphate salts prepared by this method may be used for the study of biological activity of diphosphate analogues.
