In an endeavor to find a new class of antimicrobial agents, a series of novel substituted benzimidazole, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole derivatives 6 containing pyrazole moiety have been synthesized by reaction of 3‐aryl‐4‐formyl pyrazole 4 with substituted phenylenediamine or o‐aminophenol or o‐aminothiophenol 5 . Reaction of phenyl hydrazine or 2‐hydrazinopyridine 1 with substituted acetophenones 2 gave the corresponding hydrazones 3 , which on Vilsmeier–Haack reaction with POCl₃–DMF gave substituted 3‐aryl‐4‐formyl pyrazoles 4 . All final compounds 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j , 6k were evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains and in vitro antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger strains by using serial dilution method. The antimicrobial activities were expressed as the minimum inhibitory concentration in µg/mL. The compound containing benzimidazole and benzoxazole moiety gave better antibacterial and antifungal activities than benzothiazole compounds.

Copper(II)–diaminosarcophagine‐functionalized SBA‐15: a heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the synthesis of benzimidazole,benzoxazole and benzothiazole derivatives under solvent‐free conditions

Solvent‐free organic reactions were studied over periodic mesoporous silica (SBA‐15) containing a Cu(II) organometallic complex. This heterogeneous catalyst was achieved by coordination of Cu(II) ions with the diaminosarcophagine ligand and then its grafting onto the surface of SBA‐15. This catalyst displayed ordered mesoporous channels, which implies an extremely high dispersion of the Cu(II) complex and the convenient diffusion of reactant molecules into the pore channels. Therefore, this catalyst can offer high activity and also facile separation or recycling when compared with its homogeneous counterparts. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Theoretical Study of Structure,Energetic, Hydrogen Bonds Strength and Intramolecular Proton Transfer of 2‐(2‐R (ROH,NH2, SH) Phenyl (or Pyridyl)) Benzoxazoles (or Benzothiazoles)

The ground‐ and excited‐state intramolecular proton transfer processes of 2‐(2‐R (R?OH, NH₂, SH) phenyl (or pyridyl)) benzoxazoles (or benzothiazoles) are investigated by the DFT methods. The calculated results indicate that in the ground state there is a high correlation (R=0.9950) between the proton transfer barrier and the intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IMHB) strength. The increase of the strength of IMHB in the proton transfer processes leads to a larger barrier contributions. Intramolecular proton transfer process pathway is along with the minimal difference of change value in the IMHB angle. In the excited‐state, there is a similar relationship between the IMHB and the barrier.

Visible-Light-Driven One-Pot Synthesis of Benzimidazoles,Benzothiazoles, and Quinazolinones Catalyzed by Scalable and Reusable Ba-Doped CoMoO4 Nanoparticles Under Air Atmosphere

Herein we report a simple and efficient oxidative coupling of various aryl methyl amines with diverse coupling partners, such as o-phenylenediamine (benzene-1,2-diamine), 2-aminobenzenethiol and 2-aminobenzamide, to synthesize the corresponding heterocycles using scalable and reusable heterogeneous catalysts under visible light irradiation. A systematic investigation led to the synthesis of benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles and quinazolinones under air atmosphere in very good to excellent yields. The strategy is atom economical and found to be tolerance towards different functional groups, and wide range of substrate scope. Furthermore, the methodology was demonstrated for its suitability on scale up and reusability. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the analysis of band structures of pristine and Ba doped CoMoO₄ systems showed that the doping of Ba in place of Co improved the catalytic performance of the system.

Theoretical investigation of the proton affinities of benzazoles in the gas phase and in solution

The ground‐state equilibrium geometries of benzothiazole, benzoxazole, and benzimidazole were optimized at the density functional theory (DFT)/6‐31G** level of theory. Proton affinities on each of the possible sites in the studied series of compounds have been calculated at the DFT/6‐31G**/6‐311++G** level. The results indicate clearly that N‐site protonation is strongly favored over X‐site protonation (X = NH, O, S) for the series studied. Correlation of the computed proton affinities to the energy (E_HOMO) of the highest occupied MO in the gas phase and in solution has been explored and discussed. A comprehensive investigation of the effect of solvent on the process of protonation of the studied compounds has been performed. Different dielectric continuum models (i.e., Onsager, PCM, and IPCM) have been tested; their performance and range of applicability are reported and discussed. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Copper containing nanosilica thioalated dendritic material: A recyclable catalyst for synthesis of benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles

In this paper, the design and characterization of a new heterogeneous catalyst by incorporation of copper ions into the nanosilica modified by thiole–based dendrimer are reported. The prepared catalyst was characterized by FT–IR, TGA, elemental analysis, FE–SEM, TEM, XPS and ICP–OES techniques. This material was used as catalyst in the synthesis benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles by the reaction of substituted benzaldehydes with 1,2–diaminobenzene or 2–aminothiophenol, respectively. The advantages of the present catalytic system are high yields, mild conditions and short reaction times. On the other hand, this new synthesized catalyst was recycled very well and reused several times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.     

Cyclopropanation of betulonic acid and its methyl ester with dichlorocarbene generated under phase transfer catalysis conditions

The addition of dichlorocarbene generated under phase transfer catalysis conditions to the double bond of betulonic acid occurs stereoselectively and is accompanied by transformation of the carboxy group leading to the dichloromethyl ester and chloride of 3-oxo-20,29-(dichloromethano)lupan-28-oic acid. Together these products, the chloride of the starting betulonic acid is formed depending on the reaction conditions. The reaction of dichlorocarbene with methyl betulonate leads to the corresponding cyclopropane adduct in a quantitative yield. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Reactions of Tertiary Allylic Amines and Dichlorocarbenes

In this article, a study on reactions of tertiary allylic amines and dichlorocarbenes had been described. Tertiary allylic amines could result from an interesting de-N-allylation/formylation reaction under the treatment of dichlorocarbenes. Notably, amines containing steric substituents or electron-deficient aromatic substituents on the nitrogen will go through cyclopropanations of the carbon–carbon double bond.     

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) in 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-oxazole and -thiazole

The azoles 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)oxazole (HPO) and 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-4-methylthiazole (HPT) have been synthesised and studied in order to compare their photophysical characteristics. Their absorption and emission properties are reported in non-polar, alcoholic and aqueous media. Ground and excited state pK data were determined by spectroscopy and a model is proposed to explain the behaviour of HPT and HPO as a function of the pH. Excitation spectra and quantum chemical calculations suggest an equilibrium of ground state conformers. The calculations also predict a small energy barrier for rotation in the first excited singlet state for the proton transferred tautomers. The resulting twisted structure of the tautomer form possesses a biradicaloid nature, and is near-degenerate in energy with the first excited triplet state.
