Design,synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-(2-aminooxazol-5-yl)-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-chromen-2-one derivatives

Background

In view of wide range of biological activities of oxazole, a new series of oxazole analogues was synthesized and its chemical structures were confirmed by spectral data (Proton/Carbon-NMR, IR, MS etc.). The synthesized oxazole derivatives were screened for their antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities.

Results and discussion

The antimicrobial activity was performed against selected fungal and bacterial strains using tube dilution method. The antiproliferative potential was evaluated against human colorectal carcinoma (HCT116) and oestrogen- positive human breast carcinoma (MCF7) cancer cell lines using Sulforhodamine B assay and, results were compared to standard drugs, 5-fluorouracil and tamoxifen, respectively.

Conclusion

The performed antimicrobial activity indicated that compounds 3, 5, 6, 8 and 14 showed promising activity against selected microbial species. Antiproliferative screening found compound 14 to be the most potent compound against HCT116 (IC₅₀?=?71.8 µM), whereas Compound 6 was the most potent against MCF7 (IC₅₀?=?74.1 µM). Further, the molecular docking study has been carried to find out the interaction between active oxazole compounds with CDK8 (HCT116) and ER-α (MCF7) proteins indicated that compound 14 and 6 showed good dock score with better potency within the ATP binding pocket and may be used as a lead for rational drug designing of the anticancer molecule.

Synthesis of 7-(furan-2-yl)-7,8,10,10a-tetrahydro-6<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]-chromen-6,9(6a<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-diones

Methods of synthesis were developed for 7-(furan-2-yl)-substituted 7,8,10,10a-tetrahydrobenzo[c] chromen-6,9-diones by regioselective [4+2]-cycloaddition of coumarin-3-carboxylic acids to 2-(3-trimethylsiloxybuta- 1,3-dien-1-yl)furans. The [4+2]-cycloaddition was efficiently catalyzed with L-proline.     

Synthesis and reactivity of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-2-(2-oxo-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-chromen-3-yl)-6<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,3-oxazin-6-ones

4-Hydroxy-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones with a coumarin fragment in position 2 of the oxazine ring were synthesized. Their hydrolysis, alcoholysis, and hydrazinolysis afforded a number of new coumarin derivatives containing malonamic acid and 1,2,4-triazole residues. The low stability of the title compounds toward oxygencentered nucleophiles was interpreted by quantum chemical calculations.     

Features of Reaction of 2-(5-Methyl-2-phenyl-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,3-diazaphosphol-4-yl)-4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis>]-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorin-4-one with 1,2-Dicarbonyl Compounds

2-(5-Methyl-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-diazaphosphol-4-yl)-4H-benzo[e]-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorin-4-one reacts with perfluorodiacetyl, 3,6-di(tert-butyl)-1,2-benzoquinone and phenanthrenequinone only with the participation of a three-coordinated phosphorus atom to form spirophosphoranes containing acyclic 5-methyl-2- phenyl-2H-1,2,3-diazaphosphol-4-yl substituent, whereas the interaction with tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone proceeds via expanding the six-membered heterocycle to the nine-membered one to form 2-(2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-diazaphosphol-4-yl)-2,9-dioxo-4,5,6,7-tetrachlorodibenzo[d,h]-1,3,8-trioxaphosphonine.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of novel substituted 4-[3-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxybenzyl]-2-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol derivatives

A series of novel substituted bis-benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized by reaction of 5,5′-methylenebis(2-hydroxybenzaldehyde) with various substituted o-phenylenediamines in glacial acetic acid. The structure of the newly synthesized compounds was elucidated by ¹H and ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, and MS spectra, and their antimicrobial activity against gram positive and gram negative bacteria and antifungal activity were evaluated. The thienyl-substituted derivative showed significant activity against Bacillus licheniformis. Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia (bacteria), and Fusarium solani (fungi). The activities of the fluoro-substituted substituted derivative against some bacterial strains and of the thienyl-substituted derivative against fungi were found to be similar to those of standard drugs.     

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-one derivatives

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one and its N-methyl derivatives at 0–5°C and 60°C gives 5-nitro-and 5,6-dinitro-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, respectively. The latter can also be obtained by nitration of 5-mononitro derivatives under similar conditions. The nitration of 6-chloro-and 6-bromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones and their N-methyl-substituted analogs leads to the formation of the corresponding 6-chloro(bromo)-5-nitro compounds. The same products are formed in the nitration of 5,6-dichloro-and 5,6-dibromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones. In this case, the process involves replacement of the halogen atom in position 5 of the pyridine fragment by nitro group. The nitration of 6-bromo-5-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one is accompanied by oxidation of the 5-methyl group to carboxy.     

Synthesis of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-2-[2-(4-oxo-4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-chromen-3-yl)ethenyl]-6<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,3-oxazin-6-ones and their reaction with hydrazine

4-Hydroxy-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones containing a 3-vinylchromone fragment in the 2-position were synthesized. The direction of their reactions with hydrazine hydrate was found to depend on the solvent nature. The reaction in protic solvents (methanol, acetic acid) resulted in recyclization of both oxazine ring to 1,2,4-triazole and pyranone ring to pyrazole. Aprotic acetonitrile favored attack of hydrazine exclusively on the oxazine ring, while the 3-vinylchromone fragment remained intact.     

Crystal structure of 9-(5,5-dimethyl-2,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-phenalen-2-yl)-5,5,9-trimethyl-5,6,8,9-tetrahydrocyclopenta[<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]phenalen-10(4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-one

The structure of 9-(5,5-dimethyl-2,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-phenalen-2-yl)-5,5,9-trimethyl-5,6,8,9-tetrahydrocyclopenta[а]phenalen-10(4H)-one was determined by X-ray crystallography. The intermolecular interaction energies were calculated by the atom-atomic approach for the crystal structure. The character of the crystal structure and the structural subclass were established.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-functional derivatives of 3,4-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,4-thiasilines

The first cyclic unsaturated S-functional derivatives of 4,4-diphenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-thiasiline, S-oxide, S,S-dioxide, and S-sulfonimide, were prepared. Oxidation of the hydrolytically less stable 4,4-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-thiasiline leads to the corresponding sulfoxide and sulfone along with the ring opening products, siloxanes containing the sulfoxide or sulfonyl group.     

Regioselective synthesis of polyfluoroalkyl-substituted 7-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-indazol-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

3-Polyfluoroalkyl-6,6-dimethyl-7-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones were synthesized with high regioselectivity by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes (phenylacetylene, hex- 1-yne, hept-1-yne, and but-3-yn-1-ol) to 7-azido-6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones which were prepared by bromination of 6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol- 4(5H)-ones with N-bromosuccinimide in anhydrous carbon tetrachloride, followed by treatment of the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives with sodium azide.     

Synthesis and structures of benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">cd</Emphasis>]furo[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>]indol-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-one derivatives

A procedure was developed for the synthesis of derivatives of the new heterocyclic system, benzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indole, based on the cyclodehydration of 6-acylmethyloxy-1-alkyl-benzo[cd]indol-2(1H)-ones. Either 7- or 8-aryl derivatives of benzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indol-4(5H)-ones can be prepared depending on the reaction conditions. The molecular and crystal structures of 7- and 8-phenylbenzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indol-4(5H)-ones were established by X-ray diffraction.     

Alkylation of 2-(hydroxyimino)-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-3(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Alkylation products were obtained from ethyl 2-(hydroxyimino)-7-methyl-3-oxo-5-aryl-2,3- dihydro-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-6-carboxylates at the treatment with alkyl halides, dimethyl sulfate, and diazomethane. Diazomethane alkylated the initial substrate at the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group of the thiazolidine fragment, the other reagents, at the oxygen atom of the hydroxyimino group.     

Reactions of 2-(2-propynylsulfanyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-4(<Emphasis Type="Italic">3H</Emphasis>)-one with arylsulfenyl chlorides

2-(2-propynylsulfanyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one with arylsulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of anti-Markownikoff Ad _E-addition. The use of nitromethane as solvent in the presence of lithium perchlorate additives favored intramolecular electrophilic cyclization into 1-arylsulfanyl-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thieno[3,2-e][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]-pyrimidin-5-one.

A series of novel 9-{2-[(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy]phenyl}-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-3,4,5,6,7,9-hexahydro-1H-xanthene-1,8(2H)-dione derivatives were synthesized by a click chemistry approach. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, MASS, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data. The final analogues showed good to excellent antibacterial and antifungal activities in an agar well diffusion assay. Compounds 6i and 6f were the most active against all the test bacterial and fungal strains.

N-Substituted 7-amino-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-ones containing one or two functionalized azole or azine moieties were synthesized. The structures of all synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Some of the synthesized compounds exhibited weak antibacterial activity against Rhizobium radiobacter, Escherichia coli, and Xanthomonas campestris.     

Halocyclization of 2-(2-{4-[allylamino(thioxo)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}ethyl)-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">de</Emphasis>]isoquinoline-1,3(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-dione

Cyclization of 2-(2-{4-[allylamino(thioxo)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}ethyl)-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-dione by the action of iodine, bromine, or sulfuryl chloride gave 2-(2-{4-[4,5-dihydro-5-(halomethyl)-thiazol-2-yl]piperazin-1-yl}ethyl)-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-dione hydrohalides which were converted into 2-{2-[4-(5-methylthiazol-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl]ethyl}-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-dione.     

Recyclization of 1,3-dialkyl-6-nitro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridine-2,5(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>,4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-diones into imidazole derivatives

Treatment of 5-amino-1,3-dialkyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones with sodium nitrite in aqueous HCl gave 1,3-dialkyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine-2,5(3H,4H)-diones which were nitrated with potassium nitrate in sulfuric acid to 6-nitro derivatives, and the latter underwent recyclization into 4-amino-1,3-dialkyl-5-(1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ones by the action of hydrazine hydrate.
