Phase Transfer Catalyzed Synthesis and Antibacterial Activity of Water-soluble S-Triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles Containing Piperazine Group

6/3-（4-Chlorophenyl）-s-triazolo[3, 4-b][1, 3, 4]thiadiazoles （2,a-e） and （Sa-e） were synthesized respectively by intermolecular cyclization of 5-aryl / 4-chlorophenyl-4-amino-3- mercapto-1, 2, 4-triazoles （la-e） and （4） with 4-chlorobenzoic acid / aryl acids, which were condensed with piperazine under phase transfer catalyst TBAB to yield the corresponding free bases of monopiperazine derivatives and followed to form water-soluble salts （3a-e） and （6a-e） with hydrochloric acid in good yields. The in vitro biological results showed that piperazine group conjugated with the above fused heterocycles played an important role in antibacterial activity. The structures of novel compounds were confirmed by IR, ＇H NMR, MS and elemental analysis.     

Synthesis of some new 4,5-substituted-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives

In this study appropriate hydrazide compounds, furan-2-carboxylic acid hydrazide (1) and phenylacetic acid hydrazide (2) were converted into 1,4-substituted thiosemicarbazides 4a-e and 5a-e and 4-amino-5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 7 and 10. The 1,4-substituted thiosemicarbazides were then converted into 5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4-(aryl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 8a-e and 9a-e. In addition, the azomethines 11a-d and 12a-d were prepared from the corresponding arylaldehydes and the 4-amino-5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 7 and 10. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H-NMR and(13) C-NMR spectra.     

New sorafenib derivatives: synthesis, antiproliferative activity against tumour cell lines and antimetabolic evaluation

Sorafenib is a relatively new cytostatic drug approved for the treatment of renal cell and hepatocellular carcinoma. In this report we describe the synthesis of sorafenib derivatives 4a-e which differ from sorafenib in their amide part. A 4-step synthetic pathway includes preparation of 4-chloropyridine-2-carbonyl chloride hydrochloride (1), 4-chloro-pyridine-2-carboxamides 2a-e, 4-(4-aminophenoxy)-pyridine-2-carboxamides 3a-e and the target compounds 4-[4-[[4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]carbamoylamino]-phenoxy]-pyridine-2-carboxamides 4a-e. All compounds were fully chemically characterized and evaluated for their cytostatic activity against a panel of carcinoma, lymphoma and leukemia tumour cell lines. In addition, their antimetabolic potential was investigated as well. The most prominent antiproliferative activity was obtained for compounds 4a-e (IC(50) = 1-4.3 μmol·L-1). Their potency was comparable to the potency of sorafenib, or even better. The compounds inhibited DNA, RNA and protein synthesis to a similar extent and did not discriminate between tumour cell lines and primary fibroblasts in terms of their anti-proliferative activity.     

Effect of o-methyl group on rate, mechanism, and resonance contribution: aminolysis of Y-substituted phenyl X-substituted 2-methylbenzoates

Second-order rate constants have been determined spectrophotometrically for the reactions of 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted 2-methylbenzoates (2a-e) and Y-substituted phenyl 2-methylbenzoates (3a-e) with alicyclic secondary amines in 80 mol % H(2)O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees C. The o-methyl group in the benzoyl moiety of 2a-e retards the reaction rate but does not influence the reaction mechanism. The Hammett plots for the reactions of 2a-e are nonlinear, while the corresponding Yukawa-Tsuno plots are linear with large r values (1.06-1.70). The linear Yukawa-Tsuno plots suggest that stabilization of the ground-state through resonance interaction between the electron donating substituent X and the carbonyl group is responsible for the nonlinear Hammett plots, while the large r values imply that the ground-state resonance interaction is significant. The reactions of 2a-e resulted in smaller rho(X) values but larger r values than the corresponding reactions of 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted benzoates (1a-e). The small rho(X) value for the reactions of 2a-e (e.g., rho(X) = 0.22) is suggested to be responsible for the large r value (e.g., r = 1.70). The reactions of 3a-e with piperidine are proposed to proceed in a stepwise manner with a change in the rate-determining step on the basis of the curved Br?nsted-type plot obtained. Microscopic rate constants associated with the reactions of 3a-e are also consistent with the proposed mechanism.     

Studies on Organophosphorus Compounds: Synthesis and Reactions of Some New 5′-Cyano-2′-(4-methoxyphenyl)spiro[cycloalkane-1,6′-[1,3,2]thiazaphosphixane]-2′,4′-disulfide Derivatives

2,4-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane-2,4-disulfide (Lawesson's Reagent, LR, 1 ) reacts with cycloalkylidenecyanothioacetamides ( 2 and 3 ) to give 5'-cyano-2'-(4-methoxyphenyl)spiro [cyclopentane(cyclohexane)-1,6'-perhydro-[1,3,2]thiazaphosphixane]-2',4'-disulfide ( 4 and 5 ). The reaction of compounds 4 and 5 with f -halo compounds led to the formation of the substituted thio-compounds 6a-e and 7a-e , respectively, these compounds, upon treatment with sodium ethoxide, produce the corresponding thienothiazaphosphixine derivatives 8a-e and 9a-e respectively. Compounds 8a-e and 9a-e react with LR under different reaction conditions to give polyfused heterocyclic compounds 10a-d and 11a-d respectively. Treatment of compounds 8b and 9b with CS 2 and (CH 3 ) 2 SO 4 gave the corresponding dithiocarbamate methyl ester derivatives 12 and 13 , respectively, which on treating with hydrazine hydrate yielded compounds 14 and 15 respectively. Compounds 14 and 15 reacted with LR to yield compounds 16a , b and 17a , b respectively.     

Photocyclization reactions. Part 4 . Synthesis of naphtho[1,8-bc]-furans and cyclohepta[cd]benzofurans using photocyclization of Ethyl 2-(8-Oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthyloxy)acetates and ethyl 2-(5-Oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-4-yloxy)acetates

Photocyclization reactions were carried out on ethyl 2-(8-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthyloxy)acetates 1a-e and ethyl 2-(5-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-4-yloxy)acetates 2a-e in acetonitrile. Irradiation of 1a-e gave naphtho[1,8-bc]furanols 3a-e and naphtho[1,8-bc]furans 4a-e in 33–83% yields and ethyl acrylates 5b-d were produced in 3–25% yields during irradiation of 1b-d . On the other hand, 2a-e afforded cyclohepta[ad|benzofuranols 6a-e and cyclohepta[ad]benzofurans 7a-e in 44–87% yields. Ethyl acrylates 8b-d were also produced in 7–43% yields from irradiation of 2b-d . Substituent effects on photocyclization and reaction pathways are discussed.     

Synthesis of some new N,N''-diaryisubstituted methylene-bis-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazines

The synthesis of a new series of six-membered N,N'-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazines (Sa-e) was achieved in excellent yields by Mannich-type condensation of N,N'-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-o-hydroxybenzyl amines (4a-e) with formaldehyde in chloroform at reflux. These amines (4a-e) were obtained by the reduction of N,N'-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-o-hydroxybenzyl imines (3a-e) with NaBH4, which inturn were obtained by the condensation of methylene-bis-salicylaldehyde (2) with various substituted arylamines.     

Acylphosphonamidates and α-hydroxyiminophosphonamidates. Synthesis of N-acylphosphordiamidates by Beckmann rearrangement. Crystal structure of (E)-α-hydroxyiminobenzyl-1-pyrrolidinylphosphinate

Reaction of methyl benzoylphosphonochloridate (3) with a secondary or primary series of amines yielded methyl benzoylphosphonamidates, 4a-e. The latter compounds reacted with hydroxylamine to yield a-hydroxyiminobenzylphosphonamidates (5a-e), largely as (E)-isomers. The structure of methyl (E)-a-hydroxyimino-benzyl-1-pyrrolidinylphosphinate (5b) was determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Heating oximes 5a-e in boiling toluene caused them to undergo Beckmann rearrangement to N-benzoylphosphordiamidates 6a-e. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis, molecular properties prediction, and anti-staphylococcal activity of N-acylhydrazones and new 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives

Five new 1-(2-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-5-(aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-3-(2H)-yl) ethanone compounds 5a-e were synthesized by cyclization of N-acylhydrazones 4a-e with acetic anhydride under reflux conditions. Their structures were fully characterized by IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR. Furthermore, evaluations of the antibacterial activity of the 1,3,4-oxadiazoles 5a-e and N-acylhydrazones 4a-e showed strong activity against several strains of Staphylococcus aureus, with MICs between 4 μg/mL to 32 μg/mL. In silico studies of the parameters of Lipinski's Rule of Five, as well as the topological polar surface area (TPSA), absorption percentage (% ABS), drug likeness and drug score indicate that these compounds, especially 4a and 5d, have potential to be new drug candidates.     

Aminolysis of Y-substituted phenyl X-substituted cinnamates and benzoates: effect of modification of the nonleaving group from benzoyl to cinnamoyl

A kinetic study is reported for reactions of Y-substituted phenyl X-substituted cinnamates (1a-e and 3a-g) and benzoates (2a-e and 4a-g) with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in 80 mol % H2O/20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees C. Reactions of 2,4-dinitrophenyl X-substituted cinnamates (1a-e) and benzoates (2a-e) with amines result in linear Yukawa-Tsuno plots. The rho(X) values are much smaller for the reactions of 1a-e than for those of 2a-e. A distance effect and the nature of the reaction mechanism (i.e., a concerted mechanism for 1a-e) have been suggested to be responsible for the small rho(X) values. The Br?nsted-type plots for the reactions of 2,4-dinitrophenyl X-substituted cinnamates (1a, 1c, and 1e) with amines are curved with a decreasing betanuc value from 0.65 to 0.3-0.4. The reactions of Y-substituted phenyl cinnamates (3a-g) with morpholine also result in a curved Br?nsted plot, while the corresponding reactions of Y-substituted phenyl benzoates (4a-e) exhibit a linear Br?nsted plot. It has been concluded that the curved Br?nsted plots found for the reactions of the cinnamates (1a, 1c, 1e, and 3a-g) are not due to a change in the rate-determining step (RDS) but due to a normal Hammond effect for a concerted mechanism, that is, an earlier transition state (TS) for a more reactive amine or substrate.     

Synthesis of [1]Benzopyrano[3,4-c][2]benzazepine-6, 8, 13(7H)-triones

Hitherto unknown [1] benzopyrano [3,4-c] [2] benzazepine-6,8,13(7H)-triones (4a-e) have been synthesized by the intramolecular cyclodehydration of N-(2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-yl) phthalamic acids (3a-e) obtained by the reaction of 3-amino coumarins (1a-e) with phthalic anhydride (2)     

Hydrozirconation of stannylacetylenes. Synthesis and reactions of ketene Stannyl(Telluro) acetals

Stannylacetylenes 7a-e react with Cp(2)Zr(H)Cl in THF at room temperature to give the alpha-zirconated vinylstannane intermediates 8a-e, which subsequently react with butyltellurenyl bromide (2.0 equiv) to give exclusively ketene stannyl(telluro) acetals 6a-e of E configuration. Similar reactions were performed using phenylselenenyl bromide (2.0 equiv) as the electrophile, but a mixture of products was formed including the expected ketene stannyl(seleno) acetals 12. Otherwise, the use of 1.4 equiv of Cp(2)Zr(H)Cl and 1.0 equiv of PhSeBr results in the exclusive formation of 12, in good yields. Treatment of ketene stannyl(telluro) acetals with iodine or NBS followed by reductive dehalogenation results in the formation of 1-iodo-1-telluroalkenes 4a-e and 1-bromo-1-telluroalkenes 5a-e, respectively, with total retention of the configuration.     

Star-shaped and linear nanosized molecules functionalized with hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene: synthesis and optical properties

[structure: see text] A synthetic strategy promising the establishment of a new star-shaped and linear polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) family with distinct molecular topologies has been developed. The Sonogashira reaction between the iodide derivatives 2a-e and phenylacetylene catalyzed with Pd(0) affords 3a-e in high yields. The Diels-Alder and decarbonylation reactions between 3a-e and tetraphenylcyclophentadiene following the oxidation by FeCl(3) produce the star-shaped and linear PAHs 5a-e containing a five-membered ring. The structural analysis and the optical properties of all new compounds are performed by a combination of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, UV-vis, and fluorescence spectrometry. The electronic and photophysical properties are studied by orthogonal comparisons of the absorption and fluorescence spectra in THF solutions, which not only give insight into the interactions among aromatic submoieties in each molecule and the effects of meta-conjugation and para-conjugation on electronic delocalization, but also indicate effective conjugation length variations from oligophenylacetylenes 3a-e to oligophenylene dendrimers 4a-e and PAHs 5a-e. The star-shaped 5c exhibits the highest aggregation in excited states compared with the other four hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) derivatives.

Facile chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselective approach to cis-3,5-disubstituted gamma-butyrolactones and fused gamma-butyrolactones

Chemoselective SN2' condensation of primary enolates of alkyl methyl ketones 2a-e with dimethyl bromomethylfumarate (1) followed by highly diastereoselective NaBH4 reduction of the ketone function in the formed ketodiesters 3a-e and the regioselective in situ lactonization of the unisolable intermediates 4a-e exclusively furnished the cis-3,5-disubstituted gamma-butyrolactones (+/-)-5a-e in very good yields. Similarly, the face-selective coupling reaction of cyclohexanone enolate with 1 to form a mixture of diastereomers in an 8:2 ratio followed by a highly selective reductive cyclization of 9 plus 10 exclusively provided the cis-octahydrobenzofuran (+/-)-12 in 70% overall yield.     

Synthesis of amphiphilic phenylazophenyl glycosides and a study of their liquid crystal properties

Several 4-(4'-N,N-didodecylaminophenylazo)phenyl 1,2-trans glycosides 5a-e with various carbohydrate heads (beta-D-gluco, beta-D-galacto, beta-lacto, beta-D-xylo, and alpha-D-manno) have been synthesized. The key step was the formation of phenyldiazonium tetrafluoroborates 2a-e from the per-O-acetylated 4-aminophenyl glycosides 1a-e. These salts were condensed with N,N-didodecylaniline under phase transfer conditions and the per-O-acetylated 4-(4'-N,N-didodecylaminophenylazo)phenyl 1,2-trans glycosides 4a-e were fully de-O-acetylated by the Zemplén method. The self-organizing liquid crystal properties of the compounds were investigated by a variety of techniques, including polarized light microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction. All but one of the materials exhibited smectic A, lamellar phases. Remarkably, the glucose derivative exhibited a rectangular disordered columnar phase. This result has implications with respect to the induced curvature created by the recognition processes of the glucose headgroup relative to the other sugar moieties and to the prevalence of various glycolipids in cell membranes     

Synthesis and structure of a series of new d(1)-Aryl imido-vanadium(IV) complexes stabilized by n-donor ligands

A family of new coordination vanadium(IV) compounds supported by a terminal or bridged aryl imido ligand are reported. Reaction of V(NMe(2))(4) with anilines ArNH(2), where Ar = 2,6-i-Pr(2)-C(6)H(3), 2,6-Me(2)-C(6)H(3), Ph, 2,6-Cl(2)-C(6)H(3), and C(6)F(5), afforded the diamagnetic imido-bridged complexes [V(NAr)(NMe(2))(2)](2) (1a-e). Chlorination of 1a-e with trimethylchlorosilane afforded complexes 2a-e formulated as [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(NHMe(2))(x)()](n)(). One-pot reaction of V(NMe(2))(4) with ArNH(2) in the presence of an excess of trimethylchlorosilane gave the five-coordinate compound [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(NHMe(2))(2)] (3a-e). Reaction of 3a-e with pyridine, bipyridine (bipy), or N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda) gave respectively the six-coordinate tris- or bis(pyridine) adducts [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(Py)(3)] (4a-e) or [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(Py)(2)(NHMe(2))] (5a), bipyridine complexes [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(bipy)(NHMe(2))] (5a-e) and [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(bipy)(Py)] (9a), and tmeda adduct [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(tmeda)(NHMe(2))] (10a). Moreover, five-coordinate complexes free of NHMe(2) ligands, such as [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(Py)(2)] (5a), [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(bipy)] (8a), and [V(=NAr)Cl(2)(tmeda)] (11a), were directly prepared starting from precursors 2a-e. All compounds were totally characterized by spectroscopic methods (IR, (1)H NMR for diamagnetic complexes, and EPR for paramagnetic complexes), elemental analysis, magnetism, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies for 1b, 3a, 3d, 4b, 4d, 7c, 10a, and 11a.     

A new synthesis of pyrimido[5,4-e]-as-triazine 4-oxides and their ring transformation to pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidines

A new synthesis of certain pyrimido[5,4-e]-as-triazine 4-oxides and their ring transformation to pyrrolo-[3,2-d]pyrimidines by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction is described. Thus, reaction of 6-hydrazino-1,3-dimethyluracil ( 1 ) with triethyl orthoformate gave 6-ethoxymethylenehydrazino-1,3-dimethyluracil ( 2 ). Treatment of 2 with arylamines gave 6-arylaminomethylenehydrazino-1,3-dimethyluracils ( 3a-e ). Nitrosative cyclization of 3a-e with sodium nitrite afforded 3-arylaminofervenulin 4-oxides ( 6a-e ). Reaction of 6a-e with acetylenic esters yielded 7-alkoxycarbonyl-6-arylamino-1,3-dimethylpyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H-diones ( 15a-e and 16 ).     

Synthesis of new v-triazolopyrimidinium salts

New v-triazolo[1,5-α]- and v-triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidinium salts 12a-e, 13a-c have been synthesized via oxidation (i.e. cyclodehydrogenation) of the appropriate pyrimidyl ketone arylhydrazones 3a-e, 6a-c using TBB (2,4,4,6-tetrabromocyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-one) as the reagent. The arylhydrazones were obtained by standard reactions; the Grignard reaction of 2-cyano- and 4-cyanopyrimidine 1a,b, 4a-c gave 2-pyrimidyl- and 4-pyrimidyl ketones 2a-e, 5a-c , which reacted with arylhydrazines to yield the desired ketone arylhydrazones 3a-e, 6a-c.     

The nitration of some 1-aryl(or benzyl)pyrroles

Nitration of 1-arylpyrroles 1a-c with acetyl nitrate, and 1-arylpyrroles, 1a-e and 1-(2-ethoxycarbonylbenzyl)pyrrole 4 with trifluoroacetyl nitrate gave the corresponding 2-nitro isomers 2a-e and 5, and 3-nitro isomers 3a-e and 6 . 3-Nitropyrroles 3d and 3e were further nitrated with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids to give compounds 10, 11 and 12 , respectively. Under the same conditions 1-(2-ethoxycarbonylbenzyl)-3-nitropyrrole 6 gave derivative 13 .
