Synthesis and antiviral evaluation of new 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives and their acyclic nucleoside analogues

Abstract  

A number of new 5-[(naphthalen-1-yloxy)-methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized. Sugar 2-[5-[(naphthalen-1-yloxy)methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio]acetohydrazones were prepared by condensation of the hydrazide with the corresponding monosaccharides. Cyclization of the sugar hydrazones with acetic anhydride afforded the substituted oxadiazoline derivatives. The synthesized compounds displayed different degrees of antiviral activities or inhibitory actions against HCV and HIV viruses.

Synthesis and thermal properties of azo-peroxyesters

Abstract  

New azo-perester derivatives of tert-butyl and tert-amyl hydroperoxides were obtained in reactions of azo acid chlorides with hydroperoxides in the presence of an inorganic base. Obtained azo-peresters possess two kinds of the labile functional groups: the azo group and also the perester group. The data from DSC experiments indicate that in the case of azo-perester derivatives of tert-amyl hydroperoxide, the perester group decomposes at a somewhat lower temperature than in the case of tert-butyl derivatives, whereas azo groups decompose at somewhat higher temperature in the case of derivatives with tert-amyl substituent.

Multicomponent reactions in a one-pot synthesis of α-aminophosphonates and α-aminophosphonic diamides with anti-inflammatory properties

Abstract  

Schiff-base Kabachnik–Fields intermediates generated in situ from substituted pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde and 2-aminothiophene derivatives were trapped by dialkyl phosphites to produce the corresponding α-aminophosphonates in moderate yields. The latter products could be also obtained in excellent yields (≥75%) by directly applying the phosphorus reagents to the Schiff bases. Next, dialkyl phosphites were applied to one of the parent aldehydes to give the expected α-hydroxyphosphonate derivatives. Applying hexaalkyl triamidophosphites to the Schiff base in ethanol afforded methylphosphonic diamide derivatives, whereas ring attack on the pyrazole ring occurred when the same amidophosphites were applied to the parent aldehyde to give the corresponding alkylidenephosphorane ylides in an open structure form in good yields. Some of the new compounds exhibited considerable anti-inflammatory properties.

Abstract  

Electrochemical oxidation of 2,3-dimethylhydroquinone has been studied in the presence of β-diketones as nucleophiles in aqueous solution using cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential coulometry. The results indicate that the derivatives of 2,3-dimethylhydroquinone participate in a Michael addition reaction to form the corresponding benzofuran derivatives. The electrochemical synthesis has been successfully performed at pH 7.0 and E = 0.1 V versus an Ag|AgCl|KCl (3 M) in an undivided cell in good yield and purity.

Abstract  

A facile and environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of octahydroquinazolinone and biscoumarin derivatives in ionic liquids is reported.

The ability to reuse the ionic liquid, the high yields, and ease of purification are the important features of this process.

Use of 3D QSAR to investigate the mode of binding of pyrazinones to HIV-1 RT

Abstract  

Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) based on the docked conformation were performed for 24 pyrazinone derivatives. All compounds were docked into the wild-type HIV-1 RT binding pocket and the lowest-energy docked configurations were used to construct the 3D QSAR models. The CoMFA and CoMSIA models enable good prediction of inhibition by the pyrazinones, with r_\textcv² r_{\text{cv}}^{2}  = 0.703 and 0.735. Results obtained from CoMFA and CoMSIA based on the docking conformation of the pyrazinones are, therefore, powerful means of elucidating the mode of binding of pyrazinones and suggesting the design of new potent NNRTIs.

New asymmetrical azo-perester derivatives of tert-butyl and tert-amyl hydroperoxides were obtained by reacting azo acids with hydroperoxides in the presence of N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole.

Data from dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) experiments indicate that the azo groups decompose at somewhat lower temperatures than the perester groups.
