3-Methyl-6H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4′,3′: 4,5] [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one (6) has been synthesized by the condensation of isatoic anhydride (1) with 4-amino-5-mercapto-3-methyl-[1,2,4]triazole (2) and final cyclisation of the intermediate3 with POCl₃ and PCl₃. Alternatively6 could also be synthesized by the condensation of 3-amino-2-mercapto-3H-quinazolin-4-one (7) withN-carbethoxy hydrazine in presence of hydrochloric acid and final cyclisation of the intermediate8 with acetic acid. The structures have been confirmed on the basis of IR, PMR and analytical results.     

Synthesis, reactions and antineoplastic activity of 3-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)-2-oxo-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromene derivatives

The key 3-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)-2-oxo-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromen-5-yl acetates 3 were synthesized in high yields by cyclocondensation of 4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-carbaldehydes 1 with coumarin-3-acetic acids 2 under mild conditions. The reaction pathway involves aldol condensation and subsequent intramolecular lactonization to afford 2-oxo-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromene skeleton 3. Further treatment of acetates 3 with alcohols, water or nitrogen containing compounds led to 5-alkoxy-, 5-hydroxy- or 5-acylamino-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromen-2-ones 4-6 via nucleophilic substitution of acetyloxy group at C-5. Acetates and hydroxyl derivatives 3 and 5 undergo facile rearrangement in an acid medium yielding 5-hydroxypyrano[2,3-b]chromen-2(10aH)-ones 7. Twelve prepared compounds were evaluated on their antineoplastic activities on 60 human tumour cell line panels in NCI USA. The obtained biological results confirmed that 3-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromen-2-one represents a new leading skeleton suitable for further antitumour activity study.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial of some new substituted tetrazolomethylbenzo[d]-[1,2,3]triazole derivatives using 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole as starting material

A series of tetrazolomethylbenzo[d][1,2,3]triazole derivatives (2–14) have been synthesized and evaluated as antimicrobial agents from 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole (1) as starting material. The reaction of benzotriazole 1 with chloroacetonitrile afforded 2-(1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl)acetonitrile 2, which was reacted with sodium azide to give tetrazole derivative 3. Esterification of benzotriazole 1 with ethyl bromoacetate in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate afforded ester 4, which was treated with hydrazine hydrate to afford the corresponding hydrazide 5. Reaction of 3 with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl bromide afforded the nitro-glycoside derivative 6, which was deacetylated using methanolic ammonia to deprotected nitroglycoside 7. The hydrazide 5 was reacted with 4,5,6,7-tetrachlorophthalic anhydride or 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride in refluxing glacial acetic acid to give the corresponding imides 8 and 9, respectively. Also, the hydrazide 5 was reacted with carbon disulphide in ethanol to give potassium salt 10, which was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford aminotriazole derivative 11. The latter compound was reacted with carbon disulphide to afford thiadiazole derivative 12, which was treated with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl bromide to give the thioglycoside derivative 13. Deacetylation of the thioglycoside 13 using methanolic ammonia solution at room temperature afforded the deprotected thioglycoside 14. The antimicrobial screening of some synthesized compounds showed that many of these compounds have good antimicrobial activities comparable to streptomycin and fusidic acid as reference drugs.

10-Nitro-6.11-dihydro-dibenz[b,e]oxepine-11-one (12) was obtained both from 2-nitro-6-phenoxymethyl-benzoic acid (8) by dehydration and from 2-nitro-6-phenoxymethyl-benzoyl chloride (10) by Friedel—Crafts-reaction.12 was reduced to the amino compound15 which yielded 10-aminoacetylamino-6.11-dihydro-dibenz[b, e]oxepine-11-one (19) on reaction with chloroacetyl chloride and subsequent treatment with ammonia. The cyclization of19 yielded the title compound (21). The behaviour of the ketons12 and15 against NH₂OH·HCl was investigated.     

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.

Because of the well-known chemotherapeutic activity of pyrimidoquinolines, a new series of the title compounds were synthesized and biologically screened for their antimicrobial and anti-oxidant activities. The intermediate compound, 2-amino-1-cyclohexyl-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydroquinoline-3-carbonitrile (2), was prepared and allowed to react with oxalyl chloride to give the corresponding strategic starting material, 10-cyclohexyl-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10-octahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-2-carbonyl chloride 3. Compound 3 underwent diverse reactions with amines to give the corresponding carboxylic amides 4, with alcohols to give the carboxylic esters 5 and with hydrazine to give the carbohydrazide 8. Compound 8 reacted with aldoses to give the corresponding polyhydroxy(-)alkyl Schiff bases 9, which upon reaction with thioglycolic acid afforded the thiazolidinone-C-acyclic nucleosides 10. Several other pyrimidoquinolines incorporated to oxadiazole, iminothiazolidinones and thiadiazoles were synthesized starting from the 2-carbohydrazide derivative 8. Most of the newly prepared derivatives showed considerable antimicrobial activity against Gram +ve and Gram ?ve bacteria and anti-oxidant activity.     

Synthesis and Preliminary In Vitro Biological Evaluation of 5-Chloro-2-(Substituted Phenyl)Benzo[d]Thiazole Derivatives Designed As Novel Antimelanogenesis Agents

We describe the design, synthesis, and biological activities of 5-chloro-2-(substituted phenyl)benzo[d]thiazole derivatives as novel tyrosinase inhibitors. Among them, 4-(5-chloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2,6-dimethoxyphenol (MHY884) and 2-bromo-4-(5-chloro-benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenol (MHY966) showed inhibitory activity higher than or similar to kojic acid, against mushroom tyrosinase. Therefore, we carried out kinetic studies on the two compounds with potent tyrosinase inhibitory effects. Kinetic analysis of tyrosinase inhibition revealed that all of these compounds are competitive inhibitors. MHY884 and MHY966 effectively inhibited tyrosinase activity and reduced melanin levels in B16 cells treated with ??-melanocyte stimulating hormone (??-MSH). These data strongly suggest that the newly synthesized compounds MHY884 and MHY966 could suppress production of melanin via inhibition of tyrosinase activity.     

Synthesis and characterization of novel pyridyl/naphthyl/(diphenyl)methylseleno substituted alkanoic acids: X-ray structure of 2-pyridylselenoethanoic acid, 2-naphthylselenoethanoic acid and 2-(diphenyl)methylselenoethanoic acid

A number of novel and synthetically important pyridyl/naphthyl/(diphenyl)methylseleno substituted alkanoic acids (20-25) have been synthesized using an efficient and operationally simple strategy. Starting substrates, ethyl pyridyl/naphthyl/(diphenyl)methylseleno substituted alkanoates (8-13) were easily prepared by treatment of ethyl chloroalkanoates 7(a-c) with nucleophilic selenium reagent RSeNa⁺, generated from the cleavage of dipyridyl/dinaphthyl/bis(diphenylmethyl) diselenide (1-6) with sodium borohydride in ethanol. The ethyl pyridyl/naphthyl/(diphenyl)methylseleno substituted alkanoates (8-13) on basic hydrolysis and subsequent acidification afford pyridyl/naphthyl/(diphenyl) methylseleno substituted alkanoic acids (20-25) in excellent yields. These selenoalkanoates (8-13) and selenoalkanoic acids (20-25) have been characterized by elemental analysis and various spectroscopic techniques viz. NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ⁷⁷Se), IR and mass spectrometry. The molecular structure of 2-pyridylselenoethanoic acid (20a), 2-naphthylselenoethanoic acid (23a) and 2-(diphenyl)methylselenoethanoic acid (24a) has also been established with the help of single crystal X-ray analysis.

Coupling of 3- nitrophenyl-5-bromooromethylisoxazoles (5a–b) with 4-[5-(2-alkyl-2H-tetrazolyl)]phenols (6a–d) in N-methylpyrrolidinone under mild conditions afforded a new series of 2-alkyl-5-{4-[1-(3-nitrophenyl-5-isoxazolyl)methyloxy]phenylr}-2H-tetrazoles (7a–h) in high yields. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by their ¹H NMR, Mass spectral, and Elemental Analysis data.

4,12- and 4,14-Dibromo-[2.2]metacyclophane (1 and2) were prepared by coupling of 1-bromo-2,4-bis(bromomethyl)-benzene with phenyllithium (isomeric ratio 1∶1). Lithiation of the bromides and subsequent carboxylation afforded the isomeric carboxylic acids3 and4. 4,12-Dimethyl-[2.2]metacyclophane (13) is also accessible with 90% stereoisomeric purity by reaction of 2,4-bis-(chloromethyl)toluene (20) with the Li-salt of 4-methyl-isophthalaldehyde bis(propylene thioacetal) (24) and subsequent desulphurization with Raney-Ni. In this context it was found that bromination of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene affords 2,5- andnot (as stated in the literature) 2,4-bis(bromomethyl)toluene. The separation of isomers can be accomplished on a preparative scale by column chromatography and for analytical purposes by high pressure liquid and/or gas chromatography. Structural assignments are based on the different symmetries of 4,12- and 4,14-disubstituted [2.2]metacyclophanes belonging to point groupsS ₂ andC ₂, resp., which account for the different types of spin systems of the bridge protons in the¹H-NMR-spectra.

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.
