Synthesis of Novel 2-Iminothiazolidin-4-ones

Abstract

Thiazolidin-4-ones are known to exhibit diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiarrheal, anticonvulsant, antidiabetic, antihistaminic, and antifungal activities. In the present investigation, a series of 2-haloacetamides was prepared by reacting chloroacetyl chloride with amines in dry benzene under reflux conditions. The formed 2-haloacetamides reacted with potassium thiocyanate in refluxing dry acetone to afford new 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones. The 5-arylidene-2-imino-3 (napthalen-2yl)-thiazolidin-4-ones were prepared by condensing 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones with substituted benzaldehydes. All the products were characterized by infrared, mass, and ¹H and ¹³C NMR techniques.     

Synthesis and characterization of 4-(alkylaminoisonitrosoacetyl)biphenyls and their complexes

Three new substituted 4-(alkylaminoisonitrosoacetyl)biphenyls (ligands) derived from 4-biphenylhydroxymoyl chloride and corresponding amines were synthesized. The following aromatic and aliphatic amines were used for ligands: ethanolamine, 2-amino-4-methylphenol, and 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine. Mononuclear or binuclear cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), and lead(II) complexes with these ligands were synthesized. These compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, AAS, infrared spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The ligands were additionally characterized by ¹H NMR. The results suggest that the ligands act as tridentate ligands. The text was submitted by the authors in English.

4-(Chloroacetyl)diphenyl thioether (1) was synthesized from chloroacetyl chloride and diphenyl thioether in the presence of AlCl₃ as catalyst in a Friedel-Crafts reaction. Subsequently, its keto oxime (2) and glyoxime (3) derivatives were prepared.

Preparation and Characterization of Novel Asymmetrical Schiff-Base Ligands Derived from 2-methyl-7-formyl-8-hydroxyquinoline and their Metal Complexes

Two novel asymmetrical Schiff-base ligands, H₂L¹ and H₂L², were prepared by reacting two half-unit Schiff-base compounds with 2-methyl-7-formyl-8-hydroxyquinoline. The two half-unit Schiff-base compounds were initially prepared by condensing dimedone with either ethylenediamine or p-phenylenediamine, respectively. Both ligands are dibasic and contain two sets of NO coordinating sites. Twelve metal complexes were obtained by reacting both ligands with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Mn(II), Fe(III), VO(IV) cations. The ligands and their metal complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, ESR and mass spectra, also magnetic moments of the complexes were determined. Visible spectra of the complexes indicated distorted octahedral geometries around the metal cations. ESR spectra indicated mononuclear and dinuclear structures of the complexes of ligands H₂L¹ and H₂L², respectively. Magnetic moments of the complexes were rather low compared with those expected for octahedral geometries and indicated polymeric linkage of the metal complex molecules within their crystal lattices. The insolubility of the metal complexes in most organic solvents support the polymeric structures.

Two new soluble phenylaminoglyoxime ligands, 4-isopropylanilinephenylglyoxime (L¹H₂), 4-benzylpiperidinephenylglyoxime (L²H₂), were prepared by reacting 4-isopropylaniline and 4-benzylpiperidine with chlorophenylglyoxime. Mononuclear nickel(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) complexes with these ligands were synthesized. On the basis of the magnetic and spectral evidence a square-planar geometry for Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes, a tedrahedral geometry for Cd(II) and Zn(II) complexes and octahedral geometry for Co(II) complexes are proposed. These compounds were elucidated by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, and magnetic moments. The ligands were additionally characterized by ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra.

Kinetics and mechanism of the amine exchange reactions of 2-aminopyridine derived Schiff-base ligands and their copper(II) complexes

The kinetics and product analyses of the amine exchange reactions of two 2-aminopyridine derived Schiff-base ligands and their monomeric bischelate and dimeric copper(II) complexes have been studied. The Schiff-base ligands investigated underwent amine exchange reactions with n-butyl, cyclohexyl, t-butyl amines. The coordination of the Schiff-base ligands to copper(II) rendered the amine exchange reactions slower. With n-butyl and cyclohexyl amines, parallel first- and second-order terms on their concentrations are observed for the amine exchange reactions of copper(II) bischelates and dimer. The kinetic data favor a mechanism involving a rate-limiting elimination of 2-aminopyridine from a diaminoacetal intermediate in preference to a scheme in which a dissociation of the complexes into free ligands and Cu(II) may precede the amine exchange. The steric factors influence the amine exchange reactions of Cu(II) bischelates with the bulkier amines reacting slower as given by the order t-butylamine (3.3 ± 0.3 × 10^?3 dm³/mol·s) < cyclohexylamine (0.2 ± 0.03 dm³/mol·s) < n-butylamine (2.2 ± 0.2 dm³/mol·s). The bulkiness of the t-butyl group and the constraints imposed by the changes in the coordination geometry of Cu(II) on amine exchange not only render the reactions of Cu(II) bischelates slower but also make the formation of the mixed adduct ([N-(5-methyl)-2-pyridyl salicylaldimine][N-t-butyl salicylaldimine] Cu(II)) more favored.
