A facile synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 2,10‐dichloro‐6‐(aryloxy/thiophenoxy)‐4,8‐dinitrodibenzol[d,g][1,3,6,2]‐dioxathiaphosphocin‐ 6‐oxides

Novel 6‐substituted 2,10‐dichloro‐4,8‐dinitrodibenzo[d,g][1,3,6,2]dioxathiaphosphocin‐6‐oxides 4 were synthesized by reacting 5,5′‐dichloro‐3,3′‐dinitro‐2,2′‐dihydroxydiphenyl sulfide ( 2 ) with different aryl phosphorodichloridates, trichloromethylphosphonic dichloride and O‐2‐chloroethyl phosphoryldichloride (3) in the presence of triethylamine at 55–60°.

Four related esters: two 4‐(aroylhydrazinyl)‐3‐nitrobenzoates and two 3‐aryl‐1,2,4‐benzotriazine‐6‐carboxylates

The molecules of both methyl 4‐[2‐(4‐chlorobenzoyl)hydrazinyl]‐3‐nitrobenzoate, C₁₅H₁₂ClN₃O₅, (I), and methyl 4‐[2‐(2‐fluorobenzoyl)hydrazinyl]‐3‐nitrobenzoate, C₁₅H₁₂FN₃O₅, (II), contain an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond, and both show electronic polarization in the nitrated aryl ring. In both compounds, molecules are linked by a combination of N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form sheets, which are built from R₄³(18) rings in (I) and from R₄⁴(28) rings in (II). In each of methyl 3‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐benzotriazine‐6‐carboxylate, C₁₅H₁₁N₃O₂, (III), and methyl 3‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐1,2,4‐benzotriazine‐6‐carboxylate, C₁₆H₁₃N₃O₂, (IV), the benzotriazine unit shows naphthalene‐type delocalization. There are no hydrogen bonds in the structures of compounds (III) and (IV), but in both compounds, the molecules are linked into chains by π–π stacking interactions involving the benzotriazine units. The mechanism of chain formation is the same in both (III) and (IV), and the different orientations of the two chains can be related to the approximate relationship between the unit‐cell metrics for (III) and (IV).
