A general procedure is described for the preparation of 6-substituted-5-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters (6-substituted-5-hydroxy-3(2H)-pyridazinone-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters). These compounds are shown to undergo selective alkylation at the 2-position in moderate to good yields (19-77%) to afford 2,6-disubstituted-5-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters (2,6-disubstituted-5-hydroxy-3(2H)-pyridazinone-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters).     

Substituted pyrazinecarboxamides: synthesis and biological evaluation

Condensation of the corresponding chlorides of some substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acids (pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, 6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, 5-tert-butylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid or 5-tert-butyl-6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid) with various ring-substituted aminothiazoles or anilines yielded a series of amides. The syntheses, analytical and spectroscopic data of thirty newly prepared compounds are presented. Structure-activity relationships between the chemical structures and the anti-mycobacterial, antifungal and photosynthesis-inhibiting activity of the evaluated compounds are discussed. 3,5-Bromo-4-hydroxyphenyl derivatives of substituted pyrazinecarboxylic acid, 16-18, have shown the highest activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv (54-72% inhibition). The highest antifungal effect against Trichophyton mentagrophytes, the most susceptible fungal strain tested, was found for 5-tert-butyl-6-chloro-N-(4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (8, MIC =31.25 micromol x mL(-1)). The most active inhibitors of oxygen evolution rate in spinach Molecules 2006, 11,243 chloroplasts were the compounds 5-tert-butyl-6-chloro-N-(5-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)- pyrazine-2-carboxamide (27, IC(50) = 41.9 micromol x L(-1)) and 5-tert-butyl-6-chloro-N-(1,3- thiazol-2-yl)-pyrazine-2-carboxamide (4, IC50 = 49.5 micromol x L(-1)).     

Synthesis and biological activity of N-substituted-3-chloro-2-azetidinones

2-Aminobenzothiazole-6-carboxylic acid (1), on condensation with chloroacetyl chloride yielded 2-(2-chloroacetylamino)benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acid (2), which on amination with hydrazine hydrate yielded in turn 2-(2-hydrazinoacetylamino)benzo-thiazole-6-carboxylic acid (3). Compound 3, on condensation with various aromatic aldehydes afforded a series of 2-{2-[N'-(arylidene)hydrazino]acetylamino}benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acids 4a-h, which upon dehydrative annulation in the presence of chloroacetyl chloride and triethylamine yielded 2-{2-[3-chloro-2-(aryl)-4-oxoazetidin-1-ylamino]-acetylamino}benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acids 5a-h. The synthesized compounds 4a-h and 5a-h were screened for their antibacterial activity against four microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive), Bacillus subtilis (Gram positive), Psuedomonas aeruginosa (Gram negative) and Escherichia coli (Gram negative). They were found to exhibit good to moderate antibacterial activity. The antifungal activity of these compounds were also tested against three different fungal species. None of them were active against the species tested.     

Chelation of manganese(II) with quinaldic acids. An NMR relaxation study

Manganese(II) enhanced spin-lattice relaxation rates (1/T_1p) of ¹H and ¹³C nuclei in quinoline-2-carboxylic acid, 8-methoxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid, 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid, 8-aminoquinoline-2-carboxylic acid, and 6-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid were measured in aqueous solution at various temperatures. Relative metal-nucleus distances were calculated from the r^?6 dependence of 1/T_1p. The results indicate that the Mn²⁺ ion in the 8-methoxyquinaldic acid chelate is coordinated to the carboxyl oxygen atom and the nitrogen atom but not t the methoxyl oxygen atom.     

Characterization of two hydroxytrichloropicolinic acids: application of the one-bond chlorine-isotope effect in 13C NMR

The structures of 4-hydroxy-3,5,6-trichloropyridine-2-carboxylic acid (1a) and 6-hydroxy-3,4,5-trichloro-2-carboxylic acid (1b) were verified by the NMR analysis of their corresponding methylated and decarboxylated derivatives 2,3,5-trichloro-4-methoxypyridine (5) and 3,4,5-trichloro-2-methoxypyridine (8), respectively. The 6-hydroxy isomer (1a) was found to be in equilibrium with its pyridinone tautomer as evidenced by the formation of significant amounts of 3,4,5-trichloro-1-methyl-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (6b) on exhaustive methylation. The one-bond chlorine-isotope effect was used and shown to be an effective tool for the identification of chlorinated carbons in (13)C NMR spectra providing an additional tool for solving structural problems in chlorinated compounds.

Substituted N-phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides, their synthesis and evaluation as herbicides and abiotic elicitors

The condensation of substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid chlorides with ring-substituted anilines yielded five substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid amides.

The highestreduction of chlorophyll content in Chlorella vulgaris was found for 5-tert-butyl-N-(4-chloro-3-methylphenyl)-pyrazine-2-carboxamide (3, IC(50) = 44.0 micromol.L(-1)). The maximalflavonoid production (about 900%) was reached after a twelve-hour elicitation processwith 6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (3-iodo-4-methylphenyl)-amide (2).     

Phenazines-IV The synthesis of 3-aminophenazine-1-, 3-aminophenazine-2-and 8-aminophenazine-1-carboxylic acids

The oxidative cyclization in boiling nitrobenzene of 4,6-diaminodiphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid gave 3-aminophenazine-1-carboxylic acid. 4,6-Diaminodiphenylamine-3-carboxylic acid underwent decarboxylation, but the methyl ester gave methyl 3-aminophenazine-2-carboxylate from which the acid was obtained. 2,4-Diaminodiphenylamine-3′-carboxylic acid gave a mixture of 7-aminophenazine-2- and 8-aminophenazine-1-carboxylic acids from which the pure acids were separated and oriented. 8-Aminophenazine-1-carboxylic acid, together with some 1,8-diamino-acridone, was also obtained from 3′,6-diaminodiphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid.     

Synthesis of quinoline-4-carboxylic acid and its derivatives

2-Methylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid was obtained by the reaction of isatin with acetone in the presence of an alkali. This acid was converted through a step involving (E)-2-styrylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid to quinoline-2,4-dicarboxylic acid, from which quinoline-4-carboxylic acid was obtained by refluxing in nitrobenzene. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by ¹H NMR spectroscopy using two-dimensional (2DJ) spectra.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 819–821, June, 1988.

Regioselective solvent-sensitive reactions of 6-(trifluoromethyl)comanic acid and its derivatives with phenylhydrazine

6-(Trifluoromethyl)comanic acid reacts regioselectively with phenylhydrazine in water to give 5-[3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(phenylhydrazono)propyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid. Similar reaction in dioxane leads to 3-[3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(phenylhydrazono)propyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid. A strong solvent influence on the reaction route was also found for 6-(trifluoromethyl)comanic acid derivatives.     

The unexpected role of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid in manganese based oxidation catalysis with pyridin-2-yl based ligands

A number of manganese-based catalysts employing ligands whose structures incorporate pyridyl groups have been reported previously to achieve both high turnover numbers and selectivity in the oxidation of alkenes and alcohols, using H(2)O(2) as terminal oxidant. Here we report our recent finding that these ligands decompose in situ to pyridine-2-carboxylic acid and its derivatives, in the presence of a manganese source, H(2)O(2) and a base. Importantly, the decomposition occurs prior to the onset of catalysed oxidation of organic substrates. It is found that the pyridine-2-carboxylic acid formed, together with a manganese source, provides for the observed catalytic activity. The degradation of this series of pyridyl ligands to pyridine-2-carboxylic acid under reaction conditions is demonstrated by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. In all cases the activity and selectivity of the manganese/pyridyl containing ligand systems are identical to that observed with the corresponding number of equivalents of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid; except that, when pyridine-2-carboxylic acid is used directly, a lag phase is not observed and the efficiency in terms of the number of equivalents of H(2)O(2) required decreases from 6-8 equiv. with the pyridin-2-yl based ligands to 1-1.5 equiv. with pyridine-2-carboxylic acid.     

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids and their 6,8-difluoro analogs

Alkylation of 6,7-difluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester with substituted-benzyl chlorides gave 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6,7-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters. Their treatment with piperazine or N-methylpiperazine in pyridine yielded 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters which were hydrolyzed with aqueous sodium hydroxide and then acidified with hydrochloric acid afforded the desired 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-iperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acids. The 6,8-difluoro analogs were prepared similarly using 6,7,8-trifluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as a starting material. Some of these quinolones demonstrated fairly good antibacterial activities. Among them, 6-fluoro-1-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-iperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 7d ) and 6,8-difluoro-1-(3-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-piperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 8c ) are two of the best.     

Oligomerization of indole derivatives with incorporation of thiols

Two molecules of indole derivative, e.g. indole-5-carboxylic acid, reacted with one molecule of thiol, e.g. 1,2-ethanedithiol, in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid to yield adducts such as 3-[2-(2-amino-5-carboxyphenyl)-1-(2-mercaptoethylthio)ethyl]-1Hindole-5-carboxylic acid. Parallel formation of dimers, such as 2,3-dihydro-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid and trimers, such as 3,3'-[2-(2-amino-5-carboxyphenyl) ethane-1,1-diyl]bis(1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid) of the indole derivatives was also observed. Reaction of a mixture of indole and indole-5-carboxylic acid with 2-phenylethanethiol proceeded in a regioselective way, affording 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid. An additional product of this reaction was 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-2,3-dihydro-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5'-carboxylic acid, which upon standing in DMSO-d6 solution gave 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5'-carboxylic acid. Structures of all compounds were elucidated by NMR, and a mechanism for their formation was suggested.

Highly substituted pyrrolidinones and pyridones by 4-CR/2-CR sequence

[reaction: see text] By combining a Ugi four-component reaction of isocyanides, phosphonoacetic acids, primary amines, and glyoxals or alternatively 3-keto aldehydes with a subsequent Wittig ring-closing reaction (using the Horner/Wadsworth/Emmons variant (HWE)), highly substituted 5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid amides and 6-oxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid amides can be assembled, respectively. The corresponding tandem of a Passerini reaction on 3-keto aldehydes and subsequent Wittig ring closure does not afford the expected six-membered 6-oxo-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-carboxylic acid amides but instead leads to the formation of 4-oxo-pent-2-enoic acid amides via an elimination route.     

Heterocycles [h]fused onto 4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid, part IV. Convenient synthesis of substituted hexahydro [1,4]thiazepino[2,3-h]quinoline-9-carboxylic acid and its tetrahydroquino[7,8-b]benzothiazepine homolog

Substituted [1,4]thiazepino[2,3-h]quinolinecarboxylic acid 3 is prepared by PPA-catalyzed thermal lactamization of the respective 8-amino-7-[(2-carboxyethyl)thio]-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid 9. The latter synthon is obtained by reduction of the 8-nitro-1,4-dihydroquinoline precursor 8 which, in turn, is made accessible via interaction of 3-mercaptopropionic acid with 7-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-8-nitro-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid 7 in the presence of triethylamine. A benzo-homolog of 3, namely tetrahydroquino[7,8-b]benzothiazepine-3-carboxylic acid 6, is analogously prepared via the reaction of 2-mercaptobenzoic acid with 7, followed by reduction of the resulting 7-[(2-carboxyphenyl)thio]-8-nitro product 10 into the corresponding 8-amino derivative 11, and subsequent lactamization. The structures assigned to 3, 6 and 8-11 are based on microanalytical and spectral (IR, MS, NMR) data.
