Synthesis and antioxidant properties of some new thiazolyl coumarin derivatives

ABSTRACT

A three-component one-pot synthesis of new thiazolyl coumarin derivatives was carried out by condensing 3-acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarin, arylaldehydes, thiourea and ammonium acetate at reflux in DMC. The optimization details of the developed novel protocol are recorded. In addition, we have also synthesized these compounds via another second route in two steps. High atom-economy, excellent yields, simple procedure, and mild reaction conditions are the important features of this one-pot protocol. The chemical structures of the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by using analytical (IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR). Further, all the compounds were screened for their antioxidant activities.     

Microwave-assisted and conventional synthesis and stereogenic properties of monospirocyclotriphosphazene derivatives

The reactions of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene, N₃P₃Cl₆, with N/O donor type N-alkyl or (aryl)-o-hydroxybenzylamines HO(C₆H₄)CH₂NHR(Ar), [R(Ar) = C(CH₃)₃ (1), Ph (2)] produce monospirocyclic tetrachlorocyclotriphosphazenes (1a and 2a). The geminal substituted cyclotriphosphazenes (1b, 1d, 2b and 2d) are obtained from the reactions of 1 equiv. of 1a and 2a with 2 equiv. of pyrrolidine or morpholine in THF, while the fully substituted phosphazenes (1c, 1e, 2c and 2e) are formed from the reactions of 1a and 2a with the excess pyrrolidine or morpholine in toluene, between 24 and 48 h. The microwave-assisted reactions of 1a and 2a with excess pyrrolidine or morpholine in toluene afford the fully substituted products with higher yields than those which were obtained by conventional methods. The structural investigations of the compounds have been verified by elemental analyses, ESI-MS, FTIR, ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR and HETCOR techniques. The crystal structure of 2a is determined by X-ray crystallography and the phosphazene ring is in the flattened boat form. Compounds 1b, 1d, 2b and 2d in which the spiro aryloxy moiety provides the one centre of chirality exist as racemates and the chirality has been confirmed by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy on addition of a chiral solvating agent (CSA), (S)-(+)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(9′-anthryl)ethanol.     

Computational and biological studies of novel thiazolyl coumarin derivatives synthesized through Suzuki coupling

The current investigation presents the synthesis, computational molecular-docking and biological activity studies of arylated thiazole coumarins. Aryl substituted thiazolyl coumarin derivatives were synthesized via Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. A detailed reaction condition optimization revealed that the Pd-PEPPSI-IPent precatalyst in only 2 mol% loading resulted in the desired product with high yield. The aim of this study was to examine the antimicrobial behavior of thiazole coumarin derivatives through in vitro and in silico studies. All the compounds showed activity against both antibacterial strains, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, except 5d . Similarly, the compounds 5a , 5b , and 5d were found to be active against Trichoderma harzianum. The compound 5d of this series was found to have a higher activity with MIC 125 mg/ml against Trichoderma harzianum. Molecular studies showed the high activities of these compounds are due to the presence of strong H-bonding and π-π interaction with their respective targets. A good correlation was observed between computational and in vitro studies.     

Microwave-assisted solvent free synthesis of hydroxy derivatives of 4-methyl coumarin using nano-crystalline sulfated-zirconia catalyst

Nano-crystalline sulfated-zirconia solid acid catalyst has been studied for microwave-assisted solvent free synthesis of hydroxy derivatives of 4-methyl coumarin by Pechmann reaction. The catalyst showed good activity for activated m-hydroxy phenol substrates, viz., phloroglucinol and pyrrogallol with ethyl acetoacetate for the synthesis of 5,7-dihydroxy 4-methyl coumarin and 7,8-dihydroxy 4-methyl coumarin, respectively, showing significant yields ranging from 78 to 85% within 5–20 min at 130 °C. However, the less activated phenol and m-methyl phenol was observed to be inactive for the synthesis of 4-methyl coumarin and 4,7-dimethyl coumarin, respectively, under the studied experimental conditions.

The microwave synthesis of 12 rhodamine-derived imines is described. The present work involves condensation of rhodamine hydrazide with various aromatic aldehydes in ethanol under microwave irradiation. The results obtained indicate that, unlike classical heating, microwave irradiation results in higher yields, shorter reaction time, mild reaction condition and simple work-up procedure. The structures of synthesized compounds were confirmed by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, FT-IR and high-resolution mass spectra data.     

Zeolite catalysed synthesis of coumarin derivatives

The direct synthesis of coumarin derivatives from m-substituted phenols and α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids catalysed by solid-acid catalysts, such as zeolite H-Beta or Amberlyst-15, in toluene as solvent was studied. The conversion involves esterification followed by alkylation (ring closure). Ring closure of the ester is promoted both by an appropriate substituent on the aromatic ring and by Michael activation of the β-carbon of the ester. These influences were studied by variation of the reactants. 7-Hydroxy-3,4-dihydrocoumarin is formed in high yield when resorcinol and propenoic acid are used as reactants.

Microwave-assisted solid-phase synthesis of hydantoin derivatives

A microwave-assisted synthesis of 3,5- and 1,3,5-substituted hydantoins starting from various resins for solid-phase combinatorial chemistry has been developed. The hydantoins were synthesized from pre-loaded resins with amino acids via treatment with isocyanate or phenylisocyanate and subsequent intramolecular cyclization. Both reactions were performed under microwave irradiation. We studied the cyclative cleavage leading to hydantoin compounds dependent on the nature of the amino acid and the nucleofuge properties of the resin.

Piperidine-mediated synthesis of thiazolyl chalcones and their derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents

A series of new thiazolyl chalcones, 1-[2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl]-3-aryl-prop-2-en-1-one were prepared by piperidine mediated Claisen-Schmidt condensation of thiazolyl ketone with aromatic aldehyde. These chalcones on cyclisation gave 2-amino-6-(2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-4-aryl-4H-pyridine-3-carbonitrile and 2-amino-6-(2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-4-aryl-4H-pyran-3-carbonitrile. The result showed that the compounds exhibited marked potency as antimicrobial agents.     

1,2,3-Triazole incorporated coumarin derivatives as potential antifungal and antioxidant agents

A series of novel ethyl-7-((1-(benzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylates 8a-h as potential antifungal agents were synthesized via click chemistry. The antifungal activity was evaluated against five human pathogenic fungal strains, such as Candida albicans, Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger and Cryptococcus neoformans. Compound 8c, 8d, 8e and 8h were found to be equipotent against C. albicans when compared with miconazole and compound 8f was found to be two-fold more active compared with miconazole and equipotent to fluconazole against C. albicans. The coumarin-based triazole derivatives were also evaluated for antioxidant activity and compound 8a was found to be potent antioxidant when compared with standard drug. Furthermore, molecular docking study of the newly synthesized compounds was performed and results showed good binding mode in the active site of fungal C. albicans enzyme P450 cytochrome lanosterol 14α-emethylase. Moreover, the synthesized compounds were also analyzed for ADME properties and showed potential to build up as good oral drug candidates.     

Microwave-assisted synthesis of N-glycolylneuraminic acid derivatives

A rapid, efficient and scalable synthesis of biologically-relevant N-glycolylneuraminic acid derivatives from the natural N-acetyl (Neu5Ac) precursors has been developed. Microwave irradiation provides accelerated de-N-acetylation compared to more traditional methods, with optimised NaOH-promoted de-N-acetylation in only 15 min. The prepared amines were readily re-N-acylated to afford the corresponding N-glycolyl (Neu5Gc) analogues.

Microwave-assisted syntheses of five new series of rufigallol-based mesogens are reported with branched alkyl chains at the peripheral positions. The chemical structures of these newly synthesised compounds were determined by ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ¹³C NMR, infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The thermotropic liquid crystalline properties were investigated by polarising optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffractometry. Most of the derivatives were found to be liquid crystalline over a wide temperature range.     

Spectral properties of coumarin derivatives in various environments

The structural and spectral properties of coumarin derivatives in complex environments were investigated within the time-dependent density functional theory (TD DFT). Absorption spectra calculations were obtained at TD PBE0/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory for coumarin47 in the gas-phase and in various polar and non-polar organic solvents. The geometries of coumarins 6, 30, 47 and 522 in the gas phase and in inclusion complexes with the β-cyclodextrin (βCD) were determined by PM3 and DFT (HCTH/6-31G) calculations. Encapsulation of coumarin in βCD and associated changes in electronic structure produced either a red or blue shift in the absorption spectra of coumarins. A proposed cavity model for βCD-coumarin complex in water solution allowed identification of various contributions to the overall shift in the absorption spectra of coumarin upon complex formation in a solvent environment
