STUDIES IN THE HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS V1. SOME REACTIONS OF 5-CHLORO-2-THIOPHENESULFONYL DERIVATIVES

Abstract

The reactions of 5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonyl chloride are described. Treatment of the sulfonyl chloride with ammonia, hydrazine hydrate, sodium azide, indole and imidazole gave the sulfonamides (5), sulfonohydrazide (4), sulfonyl azide (3), 1-(5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonyl)indole (27) and 1-(5-chloro-2-thiophenesulfonyl)-imidazole (26), respectively. The sulfonyl chloride was reacted further with 20 aryl-and cycloalkyl-amines to give the corresponding sulfonamides (6)-(25). Attempted chlorination of the sulfonyl chloride (2) with sulfuryl chloride or bromination of the sulfonyl azide (3) with pyridinium bromide perbromide failed. However, nitration of the sulfonyl chloride (2) with fuming nitric acid gave the 4-nitro-sulfonyl chloride (28), which with sodium azide afforded the 5-chloro-4-nitro-sulfonyl azide (29). The sulfonyl azides, (3) and (29), have been reacted with triphenylphosphine, triethylphosphite, norbornene and cyclohexene. The azides reacted further with indole and 1-methylindole to give the 2-sulfonyl-iminoindolines (34)-(36). The infra-red spectra and mass spectra of some of the substituted thiophenesulfonyl derivatives are discussed.

Characterization and bioactive potentials of secondary metabolites from Fusarium chlamydosporum

Abstract

A search for bioactive secondary metabolites from the endophytic fungus Fusarium chlamydosporum, isolated from the root of Suaeda glauca, led to the isolation of three indole derivatives (1–3), three cyclohexadepsipeptides (4–6), and four pyrones (7–10). The structures of new (1) and known compounds (2–10) were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis. All these compounds were evaluated for phytotoxic, antimicrobial activities, and brine shrimp lethality. Compound 1 showed significant phytotoxic activity against the radicle growth of Echinochloa crusgalli, even better than the positive control of 2,4-D. Cyclohexadepsipeptides (4–6) and pyrones (7–10) exhibited brine shrimp lethality, especially 4 and 7 with the LD₅₀ values of 2.78 and 7.40?μg mL^?1, respectively, better than the positive control.
