4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles as Precursors of Benzofuran-2-selenolates

The reaction of selenium dioxide with o-hydroxyacetophenone semicarbazones gives 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles which undergo ready decomposition by the action of potassium carbonate to form benzofuran-2-selenolates. The latter can be alkylated with methyl iodide and benzyl chloride and arylated with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene. Intermediate formation of 2-(o-hydroxyphenyl)ethyneselenolate during decomposition of 1,2,3-selenadiazoles was proved by the isolation of methyl o-methoxyphenylethynyl selenide when the substrate was treated with potassium carbonate in the presence of methyl iodide.     

Selenium heterocycles. XXXVII . Synthesis of 4-(thiazol-4-yl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles and 4-(selenazol-4-yl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles

Starting from readily available 2-substituted-4-formylthiazoles and selenazoles, a series of 4-(2-aryl-4-selenazolyl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles I and 4-(2-substituted-4-thiazolyl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles II were prepared. Pyrolysis of compound II afforded (2-substituted-4-thiazolyl) acetylenes VII. Addition of potassium hydroxide pellets to an alcoholic solution of II gave 2-substituted-1,4-diselenafulvenes VIII. Decomposition of compound II with base followed by the addition of carbon disulfide gave 5-substituted 2-thioxo-1,3-thiaselenoles XI.     

4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles as a Source of 2-Benzofuranthiolates

Synthesis and properties of 4-(3-amino-2-benzofuranyl)-coumarins

The alkylation of o-cyanophenol by 4-chloromethylcoumarins and subsequent intramolecular condensation by the cyano and methylene groups gives substituted 4-(3-amino-2-benzo-furanyl)coumarins. We studied the reactions of these compounds with acylating agents as well as with aldehydes, which lead to the 6H-[1]benzofuro[3,2-b]chromeno[4,3-d]pyridin-6-one system as the result of consecutive transformations.

Synthesis of some 4-substituted-2-(o-halogenophenyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

Mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime was treated with either 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl- (a), o-fluorophenyl- (b), or o-bromophenyl- (c) hydrazine to give the corresponding mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime-2-halogenophenylhydrazones (1a,b,c). The latter were O-acetylated with acetic anhydride, and cyclized to triazole 4-oximes (3b, c) or triazole 4-O-acetyloximes ( 6a,b,c ) with cesium carbonate, then converted to nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) by refluxing with acetic anhydride followed by pyrolysis, or to aldehydes ( 4a,b,c ) by hydrolysis. The nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) were also converted to acids ( 9a,b,c ), esters ( 10a,b,c ), amides ( 8a,c ), an alcohol (11a), and an amine ( 12a ). In addition, tetrazoles of two types were prepared. The first ( 13d,e ) were obtained from the acid chlorides by the action of 5-aminotetrazole, whereas the second ( 14f ) was produced from the respective nitrile by the action of ammonium azide.

The selenium dioxide oxidation of a series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenanthrone and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenanthren-4-one semicarbazones afforded 4,5-dihydrophenanthro[4,3-d]-1,2,3-selenadiazoles and 10,11-dihydrophenanthro[1,2-d]-1,2,3-selenadiazoles. The latter series which represent a new type of selenaazasteroidal compounds were pyrolyzed and gave the corresponding 1,4-deselenine derivatives.     

Synthesis of benzo[b]furan-2-thioles from 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles

4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles treated with bases decompose with nitrogen liberation and the formation of benzo[b]furan-2-thiolates. On acidifying the thiolates benzo[b]furan-2-thiols were obtained. 4-(4- and -5-Benzyloxy-2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles formed analogously the corresponding benzo[b]furan-2-thiolates whose acidifying afforded polymeric compounds.     

Synthesis of 4-(5-Nitrophenylfur-2-yl)-1,2,3-thia- and Selenadiazoles

Arylation of 2-acetylfuran with o-, m-, and p-nitrophenyldiazonium salts under the conditions of the Gomberg-Bachmann reaction has afforded the corresponding 5-(nitrophenyl)-2-acetylfurans. Their carbo-ethoxyhydrazones have undergone the cyclization into stable 4-(5-nitrophenylfur-2-yl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles under the conditions of the Hurd-Mori reaction. Analogous semicarbazones have afforded the corresponding selenadiazoles upon oxidation with selenium dioxide. The analysis of electronic absorption spectra of the obtained hybrid heterocycles has shown that the conjugation of the phenyl and the furan ring in o-nitrophenyl derivatives is distorted due to steric hindrance, whereas the effect of direct polar conjugation leading to strong bathochromic shift of the absorption band has been observed in the case of the p-nitro derivatives. The position and intensity of the bands in the electronic absorption spectra of the studied compounds are determined by electronic as well as steric factors. The difference in the length of conjugation chain determined by the position of the nitro group in the phenyl fragment also contributes to the observed trend. The introduction of selenadiazole fragment instead of thiadiazole one has caused slight bathochromic shift of the band in the electron absorption spectra.

Synthesis of novel 1,2,3-thiadizoles and 1,2,3-selenadiazoles as new antimicrobial agents

Abstract

A series of novel 1,2,3-thiadiazoles and 1,2,3-selenadiazoles having a long alkyl chain were synthesized by reacting semicarbazones with SOCl₂ and SeO₂, respectively. The structures of the target compounds 5–12 were confirmed by spectroscopy (IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and MS) and elemental analysis. Their antibacterial and antifungal activities were evaluated against six bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus) and three fungi (Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis, Candida tropicalis). The results of bioassays indicated that the compounds 5-Dodecyl-4-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-[1-3]selenadiazole (7), 4-Methyl-5-tetradecyl-[1-3]selenadiazole (8) and 5-Dodecyl-4-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-[1-3]thiadiazole (11) displayed moderate antibacterial activity against S. Epidermidis. On the other hand, according to antifungal screening results, compounds 5-Dodecyl-4-phenyl-[1-3]selenadiazole (5), 4-p-Tolyl-5-undecyl-[1-3]selenadiazole (6), and 5-Dodecyl-4-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-[1-3]selenadiazole (7) exhibited significant antifungal activities studied yeast strains.
