A simple and efficient approach for the synthesis of a novel class aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives via intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction

In this study, we synthesized a new series of substituted aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24) in yields ranging from 42 to 70% with an interesting mechanism that involves internal nucleophilic substitution followed by an S_N2-type nucleophilic substitution. First, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanone (3) was synthesized from the reaction of 5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (1) with 2-bromo-1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethanone (2) in the presence of potassium hydroxide. Then, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanol (4) was synthesized by a reduction reaction of this compound using NaBH₄. Finally, 5-methyl-3-alkyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24), which are the target compounds, were synthesized from the reaction of this compound (4), which is a secondary alcohol with various alkyl halides (5a-n) in the presence of sodium hydride (NaH). This study presents an interesting reaction mechanism related to the synthesis of aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives that is not recorded in the literature.     

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activities of Some 6-Methyl-3-Thioxo-2,3-Dihydro-1,2,4-Triazine Derivatives

Abstract

4-Arylidene-imidazole derivatives (4a,b) were readily prepared by reacting 4-am- ino-6-methyl-3–thioxo-2,3–dihydro[1,2,4]triazin-5(4H)-one (1) with 4-arylidene-2-phenyl- 4H-oxazol-5-one (2). Reaction of 1 with some aromatic aldehydes in presence of triethylphosphite exclusively afforded the corresponding aminophosphonates 5a-c. Reaction of 1 with 3-phenyl-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione (6a) and/or 3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro- 1H-quinazolin-4-one (6b) gave 2-(6-methyl-5-oxo-3-thioxo-2,5-dihydro-3H-[1,2,4]triazin-4-ylimino)-3-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-4-one (7). Moreover, on treating 1 with 2-phenylbenzo[d][1,3]thiazine-4-thione (8), 6-methyl-4-(2-phenyl-4-thioxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-3-thioxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-[1,2,4]triazine-5-one (9) was obtained in 65% yield. Reaction of 1 with 4-sulfonylaminoacetic acid derivatives (10a,b) afforded the corresponding sulfonamides (11a,b), respectively. Acid hydrolysis of 11a afforded 7-aminomethyl-3-methyl[1,3,4]thiadiazole[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-one (12). 4-Amino-6-methyl-3-(morpholine-4-ylsulfanyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazin-5-one (14) was prepared by reacting compound 1 with morpholine in presence of KI/I₂, while 3,3′-bis(4-amino-6-methyl-5-oxo-triazinyl)disulfide (16) was obtained by oxidation of 1 with lead tetraacetate. The antimicrobial activity of the products was evaluated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as the fungus Candida albicans.

Previously undescribed benzoxepins with bioactivities against inducible pro-inflammatory cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase from Rhizophora annamalayana Kathir

Two unprecedented benzoxepins were obtained from the ethyl acetate fraction of the leaves of Rhizophora annamalayana Kathir, and characterized as 4-(11-(hydroxymethyl)-10-methylpentan-2-yl)-4, 5-dihydrobenzo[c]oxepin-1(3H)-one (1) and (E)-methyl-14-hydroxy-4-(11-(5-hydroxy-1-oxo-3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[c]oxepin-4-yl)ethyl)-10-methylhept-11-enoate (2). The benzoxepin 2 exhibited greater 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and 2, 2′-azino-bis-3 ethylbenzothiozoline-6-sulfonic acid diammonium radical scavenging assays (IC₅₀ 0.68 and 0.84 mg/mL, respectively) than those recorded with 1 (IC₅₀ 0.70 and 0.89 mg/mL, respectively). The tetrahydrobenzo[c]oxepin analogue (2) exhibited significantly great cyclooxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory properties (IC₅₀ 0.87 and 0.94 mg/mL, respectively), while compared with its dihydrobenzo[c]oxepin-1(3H)-one isoform (1) (IC₅₀ 1.16 and 1.64 mg/mL, respectively). The dihydrobenzo[c]oxepin-1(3H)-one isoform (2) exhibited significantly greater selectivity index (~2) than synthetic ibuprofen (0.44) (p < 0.05), which attributed the higher anti-inflammatory selectivity of the former against inducible pro-inflammatory cyclooxygenase-2 than its constitutive isoform (cyclooxygenase-1). No significant difference in 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitory activities were apparent between compound 2 (IC₅₀ 0.94 mg/mL) and synthetic ibuprofen (IC₅₀ 0.93 mg/mL).     

Studies on DNA binding behavior of biologically active Cu(II) complexes of Schiff bases containing acyl pyrazolones and 2-ethanolamine

Pyrazolone derivatives (Z)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [PMP-EA] (1), (Z)-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [MCPMP-EA] (2), and (Z)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [PTPMP-EA] (3) have been synthesized and characterized. The molecular geometry of 2 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray study. These ligands exist in amine-one tautomeric form in the solid state. Three copper(II) complexes, [Cu(PMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (4), [Cu(MCPMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (5), and [Cu(PTPMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (6), respectively, have been synthesized using these ligands and characterized by microanalytical data, molar conductivity, IR, UV–Visible, FAB-Mass, magnetic measurement, TG-DTA studies, and ESR spectral studies; Cu(II) is five-coordinated with [ML(H₂O)₂] composition. The interaction of the complexes with CT-DNA (calfthymus) was investigated using different methods. The results suggest that the copper complexes bind to DNA via intercalation and can quench the fluorescence intensity of EB bound to DNA.

Thermal [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement of 6-cyclohex-2-enyloxy-1-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one (3) afforded 5-cyclohex-2-enyl-6-hydroxy-l-methyl-quinolin-2(1H)-one (4) in 86% yield. Compound 4 on treatment with pyridine hydrotribromide in CH₂Cl₂ gave exclusively non-bridged product 6 (85%) whereas compound 4 by a different route viz., acetylation followed by bromine addition and cyclization gave the bicyclic product 7 (80%). Compound 4 also furnished a bicyclic product 11 (80%) on treatment with cone. H₂SO₄.     

Coordination behavior of chromone Schiff bases towards the [ReVO]3+ and [ReI(CO)3]+ cores

Herein, we describe the coordination behavior of chromone Schiff bases towards [Re^VO]³⁺ and [Re^I(CO)₃]⁺. The reaction between 2-(2-thiolphenyliminomethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (Htch) and [Re(CO)₅Cl] led to fac-[Re(CO)₃(bsch)Cl] (1) (bsch = 2-benzothiazole-4H-chromen-4-one). The square pyramidal [ReO(Hns)] (2) {H₂ns=bis-[(2-phenylthiolate)iminomethyl]-methyl-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one} and octahedral [ReO(OCH₃)(PPh₃)(Huch)] (3) complexes were isolated from reactions of trans-[Re^VOBr₃(PPh₃)₂] with Htch and H₃uch [(5Z)-5-((4-hydroxy-2-methoxy-2H-chromen-3-yl)methyleneamino)-6-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4(1H, 3H)-dione], respectively. The chromone Schiff bases and their metal complexes were fully characterized via NMR-, IR- and UV–Vis spectroscopy, single crystal XRD analysis and conductivity measurements. In addition, DFT studies were conducted to compare selected optimized and experimental parameters of the complexes.

Imines and lactones derived from friedelanes and their cytotoxic activity

Abstract

Friedelan-3-one (1) and friedelane-3,16-dione (2) isolated from leaves and branches of Maytenus robusta Reissek were subjected to structural modifications via nucleophilic addition to the carbonyl group and Baeyer-Villiger oxidation in order to synthesize potential cytotoxic compounds. The oximes friedelane-3-hydroxyimino (3) and 3-hydroxyiminofriedelan-16-one (4) together with the lactones friedelane-3,4-lactone (5) and 3,4-lactonefriedelan-16-one (6) were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopic analyses. Compounds 4 and 6 are reported for the first time. Cytotoxic screening via MTT assay in human leukemia cell lines (THP-1 and K562) demonstrated no significant improvement of compounds 3-6 when compared to the starting materials. Only compounds 3 and 5 demonstrated an improvement against K562 cells. However, the same assay on ovarian and breast cancer cell lines (TOV-21G and MDA-MB-231) showed a reduction in the IC₅₀ for compounds 4-6, indicating that ring A modifications may enhance the biological potential.

A new naphtho-γ-pyrone, 5-hydroxy-6,8-dimethoxy-2-benzyl-4H-naphtho[2,3-b]-pyran-4-one (1), together with three known compounds 5,7-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzopyran-4-one (2), 3,5-dihydroxy-2,7dimethylbenzopyran-4-one (3) and cyclo(Tyr-Tyr) (4) were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. ZSU-H26 obtained from the South China Sea. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, mainly 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques. Primary bioassays showed that 1 exhibited cytotoxicity against HEp-2 and HepG2 cells with IC₅₀ values of 10 and 8 μg/mL, respectively.     

Synthesis of Novel New 2-(2-(4-((3,4-Dihydro-4-oxo-3-aryl quinazolin-2-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)acetoyloxy)-2-phenyl Acetic Acid Esters

Stereoselective diazotization of (S)-2-amino-2-phenyl acetic acid (L-phenyl glycine) (4) with NaNO₂ in 6% H₂SO₄ in a mixture of acetone and water gave optically pure (S)-2-hydroxy-2-phenyl acetic acid (L-mandelic acid) (5). Esterification, gave (S)-2-hydroxy-2-phenyl acetic acid esters (6). The latter was treated with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine (TEA) in dichloromethane (DCM) to yield (S)-2-chloroacetyloxy phenyl acetic acid ester (2). In another sequence, the reaction of 2-(chloromethyl)-3-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (9) treated with N-Boc piperazine, followed by deprotection of the Boc group, to obtain 3-aryl-2-((piperazin-1-yl)methyl) quinazolin-4(3H)-one (3). Reaction of 2 with 3 in the presence of K₂CO₃ and KI gave the title compound, 2-(2-(4-((3,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-arylquinazolin-2-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl) acetoyloxy)-2-phenyl acetic acid esters (1). The structures of all the new compounds obtained in the present work are supported by spectral and analytical data.

Synthesis and antiemetic activity of 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives

5-HT₃ receptor antagonists, such as Ondansetron, are used for anti-emesis after chemotherapy, radiotherapy and operations. Some Ondansetron analogs possessing piperazine ring as side chains were synthesized in our lab. Thus, one of the two carbonyl groups of starting material 1,3-cyclohexandione (1) was condensed with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride to form monophenylhydrazone (2). 1,2,3,9-Tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-one (3) was prepared from 2 via cyclization and rearranged in the presence of ZnCl₂. Through a methylation reaction, compound 3 was converted to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-4H-carbazol-4-one (4). 3-Dimethylaminomethyl substituted compound (5) was synthesized from 4 by a Mannich reaction in glacial acetic acid. Nine novel 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives (6a–6i) were synthesized through nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5 with piperazines. The structures of all the target compounds were determined by elemental analysis, IR, MS, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra. The results of preliminary pharmacological test show that part of the novel compounds have antiemetic activity comparable to that of the control Ondansetron. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2008, 28(2) (in Chinese)     

Homogeneous Catalytic Oxidation of Cyclohexene by Nitro Complexes of Copper(II)

This work describes the preliminary study of the homogeneous oxidation reaction of cyclohexene by nitro complexes of copper(II), Cu(CH₃CN)₂(NO₂)Cl (1) and Cu(CH₃CN)₂(NO₂)₂ (2) in acetonitrile, under oxygen pressure (20 atm) at 70 and 100°C. The results show the formation of 2-cyclohexen-1-one and 1,2-epoxyhexane-3-one as main reaction products. Also, it was observed that the oxidation reaction at 100°C with complexes 1 and 2 becomes more selective to the formation of 2-cyclohexene-1-one although the activity of both catalyst decreases.     

On the mechanism of the Fe(CO)5-catalyzed Kharasch reaction

Regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity of the addition of BrCCl₃ to (R)-3-(E)-cinnamoyl-4-phenyloxazolidin-2-one (1) and (R)-3-(E)-acryloyl-4-phenyloxazolidin-2-one (2) catalyzed by Fe(CO)₅ or initiated with benzoyl peroxide were investigated. Stereochemistry of the reaction of BrCCl₃ with the a-complexes (4R,S,S)-²-(3-(E)-cinnamoyl-4-phenyl-oxazolidin-2-one)irontetracarbonyl (3a) and (4R,R)-²-(3-acryloyl-4-phenyloxazolidin-2-one)irontetracarbonyl (4b) was also studied. The results obtained allow the following conclusions to be drawn: (1) the thermal Kharasch reaction catalyzed by Fe(CO)₅ proceeds by a redox catalysis mechanism; (2) iron (in any of its oxidation states) is not coordinated to olefins in the transition state of the reaction; (3) the transfer of the halogen atom on the radical adduct probably occurs inside a radical-iron cation pair.Yu.

Efficient Synthesis of Novel 3-[5-(1H-Benzimidazol-2-Ylmethanesulfonyl)-4-Phenyl-4H-(1,2,4)Triazol-3-Yl]-1H-(1,8)Naphthyridin-4-One Derivatives

Abstract

of 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carbohydrazide (4) with substituted phenyl isothiocyanates (5) in ethanol under reflux for 30 min gave thiosemicarbazide derivatives 6, which on cyclization in 2N NaOH under refluxing conditions for 1 h resulted in 3-(5-mercapto- 4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-one (7). Alternatively, 7 could also be prepared from following sequence of reactions, i.e., 4 → 8 → 7. In another sequence of reactions, condensation of 7 with chloroacetic acid in dimethylformamide (DMF) and K₂CO₃ as a mild base at 120 °C for 2 h resulted in 2-((5-(1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridin-3-yl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)sulfanyl)acetic acid (10). The latter, on reaction with substituted o-phenylenediamine (11) in 6N HCl for 4 h yielded 3-(5-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methylthio)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-one (12). Alternatively, 12 could also be prepared by reacting 7 with 13 in DMF and K₂CO₃ as a mild base at 120 °C for 2 h, followed by oxidation with H₂O₂ resulting in the corresponding sulfonyl derivatives 14.

Copper(II) azide complexes with mono-anionic tridentate Schiff-base ligands: monomer versus dimer

Three new copper(II) complexes [CuL¹N₃]₂ (1), [CuL²N₃] (2) and [CuL³N₃] (3) with three very similar tridentate Schiff base ligands [HL¹?=?6-diethylamino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azahex-3-en-1-one, HL²?=?6-amino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azahex-3-en-1-one and HL³?=?6-amino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azasept-3-en-1-one] have been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. In complex 1 half of the molecules are basal-apical, end-on azido bridged dimers and the remaining half are square-planar monomers whereas all the molecules in complexes 2 and 3 are monomers with square-planar geometry around Cu(II). A competition between the coordinate bond and H-bond seems to be responsible for the difference in structure of the complexes.
