Synthesis and Structure of 4-Indolyl-5-(thieno[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyrrol-6-yl)imidazoles

A procedure was proposed for regioselective acylation of methyl 2-methyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]-pyrrole-5-carboxylate with 2-(3-indolyl)-2-oxoacetyl chloride. Reactions of the resulting methyl 6-[2-(3-indolyl)-1,2-dioxoethyl]-2-methyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate with aromatic aldehydes and ammonium acetate in acetic acid afforded the corresponding methyl 6-[2-aryl-4-(3-indolyl)imidazol-5-yl]-2-methyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylates. The structure of methyl 6-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-(3-indolyl)imidazol-5-yl]-2-methyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate was studied by X-ray analysis.

Intermediate compound 1 reacted with aldehyde, ethyl chloroformate, triethyl orthoformate, and ninhydrine and gave new heterotetracyclic nitrogen systems, such as 3-(N ²-guanidinylimino)indole-2(1H)-one 2, 3-(N-ethoxycarbonylamino)-4H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole 3, 3-(N-ethoxymethyleneamino)-4H-[1,2,4]-triazino[5,6-b]indole 4, 3-(hydrazinothiocarbonylamino)-4H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole 5, respectively. N-(1,3-dioxoindene-2-ylidene)-4H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-3-amine 6 was synthesized by reaction of compound 1 with aldehyde, ethyl chloroformate, triethyl orthoformate, and ninhydrine.

Structures of the products were elucidated from their elemental analysis and spectral data (IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and mass spectra). Antimicrobial activity of some synthesized compounds was tested.

A series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine derivatives bearing a sulfide substructure was designed, synthesized and characterized via ¹H·NMR, ¹³C·NMR, IR and elemental analyses. Bioassay Results indicated some of the derivatives displayed good fungicidal activity on Rhizoctonia cerealis, moderated insecticidal activity against Plutella xylostella and good insecticidal activity on Helicoverpa armigera. The inhibitory effects of compounds 4g and 4u against Rhizotonia cerealis were 70.9% at 50 μg mL^?1; the IC₅₀ values of compounds 4d and 4s against Plutella xylostella were 43.87 and 50.75 μg mL^?1, respectively. And the IC₅₀ values of compounds 4d, 4q, and 4s on Helicoverpa armigera were 58.3, 77.14 and 65.31 μg mL^?1, respectively, which were better than that of commercial chlorpyrifos (103.77 μg mL^?1).     

Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial evaluation of 6-substituted 4-amino-pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidines

Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines are one of the most important classes of fused heterocyclic compounds which exhibit a broad range of biological and medicinal properties. They are known as anticancer, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory agents. In this study, some new 6-substituted 4-amino-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives were prepared via reaction of 5-amino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile with various nitriles in the presence of sodium ethoxide as catalyst. The inhibitory properties of synthesized compounds were studied according to CLSI guidelines against some pathogenic bacteria including four gram-positive strains (Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and Bacillus subtilis subsp. spizizenii) and three gram-negative strains (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella flexneri and Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica). The antibacterial effects of all derivatives were compared with those of antibiotics belonging to different classes. The values were reported as inhibition zone diameter (IZD), minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). The effect of substituents on the biological activity of derivatives was discussed as well. The inhibitory effect of compound 6a, was shown to be the most, with MIC values in the range of 32–4096 μg/mL. Since most of the synthesized compounds were effective against Streptococcus pyogenes and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, they can be considered as inhibitors of these two bacteria.     

One-pot three-component process for the synthesis of substituted pyrano[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyrazoles catalyzed by nanostructured FSM-16-SO<Subscript>3</Subscript>H

A three-component process for the one-pot synthesis of 6-amino-4-aryl-5-cyano-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles by the reaction of aldehydes, 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one, and malononitrile in the presence of FSM-16-SO₃H as an efficient mesoporous catalyst. The FSM-16-SO₃H was prepared and characterized by SEM, XRD, BET, and FT-IR techniques. The advantages of the presented method are high yields, short reaction times, easy purification of products, easy work-up, and reusability of the catalyst.     

Structure of methyl-7-methoxy-7-phenyl-6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">endo</Emphasis>-halobicyclo[3.1.1]heptane-6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">exo</Emphasis>-carboxylate diastereomers in single crystals

The structure of diastereomeric methyl-7-anti-methoxy-7-syn-phenyl-and methyl-7-syn-methoxy-7-anti-phenyl-6-endo-bromobicyclo[3.1.1]heptane-6-exo-carboxylates 2a and 3a and their chlorine-and iodine-substituted analogs 2b and 3c was studied by XRD. The diastereomers differ in the geometrical parameters of the carbon framework of the molecules. The C(1)-C(2)-C(3)-C(4)-C(5)-C(6) six-membered ring is in the intermediate conformation between envelope and chair in structures 2 and envelope in structures 3. In compound 2a, the cyclobutane fragment has a higher degree of folding than in 3a; one of the possible reasons for that is the donor-acceptor interaction between the 6-methoxycarboxylic and 7-methoxy groups in molecule 2a.

New Quinoxaline-Containing Monomers for Narrow-Bandgap Polymers

Two new fused quinoxaline-containing monomers—2,3-bis(9-(2-decyltetradecyl)-9H-carbazol-3-yl)dithieno[3,2-f:2'3'-h]quinoxaline (М1) and 2,5-di(nonadecan-3-yl)bis[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-a:5',4'-c]bisthieno[3,2-h:2',3'-j]phenazine (М2)—have been synthesized in high yields of 88 and 83% as promising building blocks of D-A polymers for photovoltaic applications.

Both monomers have low-lying HOMO levels, which is favorable for a high open-circuit voltage and a high stability in air in the development of PSCs. The E _g ^ec values of monomers М1 and М2 are 2.87 and 2.85 eV and are consistent well with the optical bandgap (2.79 and 2.88 eV, respectively).     

2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidines: Synthesis and reactions with electrophilic reagents

The hydrogenation of 2-amino-5-R-7-R′-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines with NaBH₄ led to the formation of 2-amino-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. Acylation, sulfonylation, and alkylation of these compounds depending on conditions and the reagent character occur at the amino group, atoms N³ or N⁴. The treatment with alkali of 2-amino-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidinium bromide resulted in 2-amino-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidine, similar reaction of 2-acetamido-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidinium bromide gave a mesoionic product of a hydrogen elimination from the amide nitrogen atom.

2-Cyanomethyl derivatives were obtained of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, and imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole, and their reactivity was investigated by an example of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine: It was subjected to nitration, bromination, azo coupling and nitrosation. Acylation of the methylene group effected by amino acids esters with a subsequent addition of the amino group to the cyano group resulted in the formation of 5-amino-4-imidazo[1,2-a]-pyridin-2-yl-1-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrol-3-one and 2-amino-1-ethyl-3-imidazol[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl-4(1H)-quinolinone.
