A new series of 3-aryl-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1-thiocarbamoyl-2-pyrazoline derivatives (4a-j) were prepared by the reaction of azachalcons 3a-j with thiosemicarbazide in ethanolic sodium hydroxide.

The preliminary results showed that compounds 4e, 4d and 4g had 87%, 93% and 92% inhibitory effect respectively.     

A convergent paired electrochemical synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds. Reaction of benzoquinones with 3-Amino-4-hydroxycoumarin

Electrochemical oxidation of catechols (1) has been studied in the presence of cathodically generated 3-amino-4-hydroxycoumarin (3a) as a nucleophile in aqueous solutions, using cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential coulometry. The results indicate that the o-benzoquinones derived from catechols (1) participate in Michael addition reaction with 3-amino-4-hydroxycoumarin (3a) to form the corresponding new heterocyclic compounds (7) (oxidized form of coumestan derivatives). The electrochemical process consists of a multi-step including (a) cathodic reduction of 4-hydroxy-3-nitrocoumarin (3) to 3-amino-4-hydroxycoumarin (3a), (b) anodic oxidation of catechols (1) to related o-benzoquinone (2), (c) the Michael addition reaction of 3-amino-4-hydroxycoumarin (3a) to o-benzoquinone (2), and (d) anodic oxidation of formed adduct. The paired electrochemical synthesis of compounds 7a and 7b has been successfully performed in a one-pot process at carbon rods as working and counter electrodes in an undivided cell.     

Synthesis, structural elucidation and biological activities of organotin(IV) derivatives of (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-propenoic acid

A new series of di- and tri-organotin(IV) compounds with the general formula R_4?n SnL _n , where R?=?Me (1,2), Et (3), n-Bu (4,5), n-Oct (6), Ph (7) and L?=?(E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-propenoate, were synthesized by reaction of silver salt of ligand or ligand acid with diorganotin dichloride/oxide and triorganotin chloride in 2:1 and 1:1 molar ratio, respectively. These compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR and mass spectrometry. The spectroscopic results revealed that all the diorganotin(IV) compounds possess trigonal bipyramidal structures in solution and octahedral geometry in the solid state around the tin atom. A linear polymeric trigonal bipyramidal structure in the solid state and a tetrahedral environment around the tin atom in non-coordinating solvents has been proposed for the triorganotin(IV) compounds. All synthesized compounds were tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms to assess their biocidal activity. These studies revealed that ligand acid and some of its organotin compounds show promising activity against different strains of bacteria and fungi but lowered than reference drugs.

Five dirhenium(III) compounds, Re₂(3,5-(CH₃)₂ap)₄Cl₂ (1), Re₂(ap)₄Cl₂ (2), Re₂(3-MeOap)₄Cl₂ (3), Re₂(3-Clap)₄Cl₂ (4), and Re₂(3,5-Cl₂ap)₄Cl₂ (5), were synthesized and characterized, where 3,5-(CH₃)₂ap, ap, 3-MeOap, 3-Clap and 3,5-Cl₂ap are 2-(3,5-dimethylanilino)pyridinate, 2-anilinopyridinate, 2-(3-methoxyanilino)pyridinate, 2-(3-chloroanilino)pyridinate and 2-(3,5-dichloroanilino)pyridinate, respectively. Structural studies revealed the Re–Re bond lengths ranging from 2.2214(4) to 2.2262(11) Å, signifying that the dirhenium core maintains its quadruple bond. The asymmetric nature of 2-anilinopyridinate ligands resulted in several possible regioisomers: compounds 1 and 4 adopt a cis-(2,2) arrangement, while compounds 2 and 5 assume trans-(2,2) and (3,1) arrangements, respectively. All five compounds display three (quasi)reversible one electron couples, two oxidations and one reduction, and their electrode potentials correlate linearly with the Hammett constant of the aniline substituent.

2H-Imidazole-4(3H)-thiones (a), available from methyl alkyl and methyl aryl ketones with sulfur and ammonia, react via their corresponding N-sodium compounds or in presence of tert. amines with alkyl and aryl carboxylic acid chlorides to give the corresponding intensely coloured (orange to violett) cryst. 3-acyl-2H-imidazole-4(3H)-thiones4 a-q and6–26.

The reaction of L2 and L4 with an excess amount of the corresponding aldehydes gave the unsymmetrical bis-Schiff bases (E)-3-((E)-(R-methoxybenzylidene)hydrazono)-4-((E)-R-methoxybenzylideneamino)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one (R?=?2 (L22) and R?=?4 (L44)), respectively. Furthermore, the reaction of L2?CL4 with silver(I) nitrate in a molar ratio 2:1 led to the silver(I)-complexes with the general formula [Ag(Lx)₂]NO₃ (Lx?=?L2 (2), L3 (3) and L4 (4)). All synthesized Schiff base compounds and complexes were characterized by a combination of IR-, ¹H-NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analyses.

Extraction of palladium with thiacalix[4]arenes from nitric acid nitrate-nitrite solutions

Calix[4]arene 1, thiacalix[4]arenes 2(LH₄), and calix[4]arenethioether 3 were compared in palladium extraction from nitric acid solutions; D _Pd for 2 was shown to be 2?C3 orders of magnitude larger than for 1 at pH > 3 (comparable with 3) because of cation-exchange and coordination extraction of palladium. It was shown by extraction methods and IR spectroscopy that thiacalixarenes 2 extract complex species [Pd _n L _m H_{4 ? 2n} ] (m = 1, n = 1 and 2) and [(PdA₂) _n L _m H₄] (A = m = 1, n = 1?C4) from nitric acid solutions at pH 3. Extraction constants for these palladium species that satisfactorily describe experimental data were calculated. As distinct from 3, thiacalixarenes 2 are promising for the combined extraction of palladium and silver from alkaline solutions and the selective extraction of fission palladium from nitric acid solutions. Phosphorylated at the upper rim thiacalixarenes 2 can be considered as bifunctional extractants for the separation of fission radionuclides.

A study on thermal behaviors of mono ethyl ester azocalix[4]arene derivatives

In the present study, thermal stabilities of five new family of azocalix[4]arene mono ethyl ester derivatives, 4a–e, were investigated using thermogravimetry, differential thermogravimetry, and differential thermal analysis methods. It was found that all compounds showed thermal stability up to 236 °C averagely. After this temperature, decomposition of compounds starts gradually. The decomposition routes of 4a–c compounds are similar and occur with two stages. Ester alkyl groups decompose and remove from the structure in the first stage. Second stage corresponds to rest of structure decomposition. The decomposition routes of the 4d–e compounds are different from the decomposition routes of the 4a–c compounds. These compounds include halogen, and decomposition reactions realize with three and four stages respectively.
