Synthesis and Structure–Antitumor Activity Relationship of Sulfonyl 5-Fluorouracil Derivatives

Novel sulfonyl 5-fluorouracil derivatives 2 (5-fluoro-1-(arylsulfonyl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones) have been synthesized via the reaction of 5-fluorouracil with sulfonyl chloride. Their chemical structures were confirmed by means of ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR, mass spectra, and elemental analyses, and, in the case of 2a, its structure was established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Some of the compounds were assayed for anticancer (HL-60 and BEL-7402 cells) activities. Structure–activity relationship (SAR) analysis discovered that the anticancer activity was related to the configuration, and that electron-withdrawing groups at 2-position or 4-position on the aryl group of arylsulfonyl derivatives of 5-fluorouracil could enhance the anticancer activity against the BEL-7402 cells.

Synthesis,characterization and evaluation of novel benzothiazole clubbed chromene derivatives for their anti-inflammatory potential

Abstract

A series of chromene derivatives (5a–f) were prepared by multistep synthesis process using 2-[3-phenyl prop-2-ene nitrile] 1,3-benzothiazole and dimedone using piperidine as catalyst in ethanol. The reaction was found to proceed via Knoevenagel condensation of aldehydes with benzothiazole, followed by the elimination to afford the 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-3-(aryl)acrylonitrile, which then undergoes Michael addition with 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, followed by intramolecular O-cyclization to give the products. The structures of all novel constructed derivatives were corroborated by elemental analysis and spectral data (FT-IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and Mass). Subsequently, the compounds were tested for their in-vivo anti-inflammatory activity. This study revealed that these synthesized derivatives tend to have significantly anti inflammatory activity and shall prove as structural templates in the design and development of new anti inflammatory drugs.

The compounds were screened for their antibacterial activity by turbidimetric method using gram-negative bacteria (E. coli ATCC 8739) using turbidimetric method. The newly synthesized bis-thiourea derivatives bearing aryl side chains showed good antibacterial activity against E. coli. The effect of the molecular structure of the synthesized compounds on the antibacterial activity is discussed.

Nucleosides. 130. Synthesis of 2′-Deoxy-2′-substituted- and 5′-Deoxy-5′-substituted-ψ-uridine Derivatives. Crystalline and Molecular Structure of 2′-Chloro-2′-deoxy-1,3-dimethyl-ψ-uridine. Studies Directed Toward the Synthesis of 2′-Deoxy-2′-substituted-arabino-Nucleosides. 1

A method was developed to prepare 5′-deoxy-5′-substituted-ψ-uridine derivatives 4 from 3′,5′-O-(1, 1, 3, 3-tetraisopropyldisiloxanyl)-1,3-dimethyl-ψ-uridine 1 via a silyl rearrangement reaction. Nucleophilic displacement of the mesyloxy function of 2′-O-mesyl-1,3-dimethyl-ψ-uridine 7 afforded products with the 2′-substituent in the “down” ribo configuration 8 . X-Ray crystallographic analysis of the 2′-chloro derivative 8a firmly established the molecular structure of 8 and provided evidence for neighboring group participation of the 4-carbonyl function of 7 during the nucleophilic reactions. Treatment of 1,3-dimethyl-ψ-uridine 11 with α-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride afforded a mixture from which two 2′-chloro-2′-deoxy-C-nucleosides were obtained. The major product (33% yield) was identical with 8 . The minor product (7% yield) was consequently assigned the arabino nucleoside 14 . This is the first direct introduction of a 2′-substituent in the “up” configuration in a preformed pyrimidine nucleoside.
