Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of 7-(1′-alkylhydrazino)-1,8-naphthyridines related to nalidixic acid were investigated. Namely, treatment of 7-alkylamino-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids 1a-d with sodium nitrite in the presence of hydrochloric acid gave the 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-7-(N-nitrosoalkylamino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids 2a-d , which upon reacting with zinc dust in acetic acid gave the 7-(1′-alkylhydrazino)-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylicacids 3a-d. The compound 3a was alternately obtained by the reaction of 7-chloro-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphth-yridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 4 ) with methylhydrazine. The reaction of 7-chloro-4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 5 ) with methylhydrazine gave the 4-hydroxy-7-(1′-methylhydrazino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 6 ), which upon treatment with alkyl halides afforded the 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-7-(1′-methyl-hydrazino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridines 3a and 3e-g. The reaction of the appropriate 3 with ketones gave the corresponding 7-(1′-methylalkylidenehydrazino)-1,8-naphthyridines 7a-c and 8a-b. Among the compounds prepared, certain 3 and 7 exhibited good activity against Gram-negative bacteria.     

4-Substituted-3-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones. IV (2-4). Keto-Enol tautomerism of β-keto ester derivatives. Reaction of β-dicarbonyl compounds with diamines

A series of α-[3-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-2-oxo-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-yl]-β-keto ester derivatives 1 (Table I) were synthesized by the condensation of 3-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2H-1,3-benzoxazine-2-ones 3 (2) with β-keto esters 4 in the presence of traces of mineral acids under azeotropic conditions. Condensation of 1 with hydrazines 5 gave pyrazolone derivatives 2 (Table II). Condensation of β-diketone derivatives 6 with hydrazines 5 and with 1,2-benzenediamine ( 8 ) resulted in the formation of pyrazoles ( 7a-c ) and diazepine derivatives 12 (Table III) and 13 , respectively.

Zinc enolates derived from 1-aryl-2,2-dibromoalkanones react with N-substituted 3-aryl-2-cyanoprop-2-enamides and 5,5-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylic and 2-oxochromene-3-carboxylic acid derivatives to give, respectively, N-substituted 2-alkyl-3-aryl-2-aroyl-1-cyanocyclopropane-1-carboxamides, 6-(4-bromobenzoyl)-4,4,6-trimethyl-2-oxo-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester and morpholide, and 1-alkyl-1-aroyl-2-oxo-1a,7b-dihydrocyclopropla[c]chromene-1a-carboxylic acids as a single geometric isomer. Treatment of 1-alkyl-1-aroyl-2-oxo-1a,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromene-1a-carboxylic acids with carboxylic acid anhydrides leads to the formation of the corresponding 9c-alkyl-1-aryl-3,4-dioxo-9b,9c-dihydro-2,5-dioxacyclopenta[2,3]cyclopropa[1,2-a]naphthalen-1-yl carboxylates.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole,thiopyrane, thiazolidinone,and azepine derivatives

4-oxo-4-phenylbutanehydrazide 3 was reacted with aryl or alkyl isothiocyanates to give the corresponding N-substituted-2-(4-oxo-4-phenylbutanoyl) hydrazine-1-carbothioamide 4a-c . Cyclization of thiosemicarbazides 4a-c with sodium hydroxide led to the formation of 3-(4-sub-5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-propanone 5a-c . Desulfurization of thiosemicarbazides 4a-c by mercuric oxide afforded 3-(5-(sub-amino)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-propanone 6a-c . The reaction of 4a-c with phosphorus oxychloride gave 3-(5-(sub-amino)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-propanone 7a-c . Treatment of 4a-c with ethyl-bromoacetate or α-bromopropionic acid gave N′-(3-sub-thiazolidin-2-ylidene)-butanehydrazide 8a-c and (N′-(3-sub-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)-butanehydrazide 9a-c . Chlorination of oxothiazolidine-hydrazide 9a-c by phosphorus oxychloride afforded N-(3-sub-4-oxothiazolidine)-butane-hydrazonoyl-chloride 10a-c . The reaction of 10a-c with mercaptoacetyl-chloride yielded 2-((4-benzoyl-thiopyrane) hydrazono)-3-sub-thiazolidinone 11a-c . Also, reacted of 10a-c with hydrazine hydrate afforded N″-(3-sub-oxothiazolidine)-butane-hydrazon-hydrazide 12a-c . The 3-sub-2-((pyridazine) hydrazono) thiazolidinone 13a-c was obtained by cyclization of 12a-c via refluxing in DMF. The reaction and cyclized of 9a-c with chloroacetyl-chloride in ethanolic KOH afforded 1-((3-sub-4-oxothiazolidine) amino)-azepine-dione 14a-c . The chemical structures of the new compounds have been confirmed by diverse spectroscopy analyses such as IR, NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. The synthesized compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activity and these compounds were considered (Pyridazin-hydrazono-thiazolidinone 13a-c , oxothiazolidin-azepinedione 14a-c , N-thiazolidin-hydrazon-hydrazide 12a-c , and thiopyran-hydrazono-thiazolidinone 11a-c ) the most effective as antimicrobial activity.     

1,6- and 1,7-naphthyridines. II. Synthesis from acyclic precursors

A number of 8-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-5(6H)-one-7-carboxylic acid alkyl esters 3 and the isomeric 5-hydroxy-7-methyl-1,7-naphthyridin-8(7H)-one-6-carboxylic acid alkyl esters 4 were synthesized from acyclic precursors obtained starting from quinolinic anhydride 5. Thus, methanolysis of 5 afforded the hemiester 6 which treated with oxalyl chloride and sarcosine ethyl ester gave 3-(N-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-N-methylcarbamoyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester 8. Compound 8 was cyclized to naphthyridines 3a-e with sodium alkoxides. The isomeric naphthyridines 4a-c were obtained by cyclization of the open intermediary 2-(N-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-N-methylcarbamoyl)pyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester 9 obtained by a route that involves treatment of 5 with sarcosine ethyl ester and esterification with diazomethane. Spectroscopic properties (¹H nmr, uv, ir) of compounds 3 and 4 are discussed and confirmed the proposed structures.     

Studies on quinoline derivatives and related compounds. 1. A new synthesis of 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids

A novel preparative method for 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids was developed. The key process is the cyclization of N-alkylanilinomethylenemalonales, which was effected successfully in the presence of polyphosphoric acid, polyphosphate ester, boron tri-fluoride or a mixture of acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid. With phosphorus oxychloride, N-alkylanilinomethylenemalonates yielded 1-alkyl-4-chloro-3-carbethoxyquinolinium salts which were hydrolyzed readily to ethyl 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolineearboxylates or their acids. By means of this novel method several new 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolineearboxylic acids were prepared.     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance study of a new ring-chain tautomerism of some pyridazine derivatives

The ¹³C NMR spectra of a number of pyridazine derivatives have been recorded in DMSO-d₆ solution and analysed. Examination of the most diagnostic resonances, with particular emphasis on those arising from the pyridazine ring system, enabled the ready establishment of the presence of a ring-chain tautomerism in 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylate, 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)-3,6,-dimethylpyridazine-4-carboxylic acid and 5-(2-amino-1,2-dicyanovinylenecarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid. This gave rise to 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 3′,4′-dihydro-3′oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylate, 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxo-3,6-dimethylspiro[pyridazine-5(2H), 2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid and 5-oxo-2,3-dicyano-1,4,8,9-tetraazaspiro[5.5]undeca-2,7,10-triene-11-carboxylic acid, respectively.     

Synthesis and anticancer activity evaluation of 3-(4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-5-yl)-1H-indole-carboxylic acids derivatives

Abstract

A mild and efficient method for the synthesis of 1-oxo-9H-thiopyrano[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acids and dimerized 3-(4-carboxy-1H-3-indolyl)-2-propenoic acids via alkaline hydrolysis of 3-(rhodanin-5-yl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acids derivatives was elaborated. Anticancer activity screening in NCI60-cell lines assay allowed identification of 5-fluoro-3-(4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester 2a with significant antimitotic activity at micromolar and submicromolar concentrations.     

Reaction of 4-methylene-5(4H)-oxazolones with diazomethane

The reaction of diazomethane with some (E) and (Z)-2-substituted-4-methylene-5(4)-oxazolones ( 1a-c ) under two different conditions, has been studied. (E) and (Z)-1,2-disubstituted-7-oxo-6-oxa-4-azaspiro[2.4]-hept-4-enes ( 3a-c, 4a-c ) were mainly obtained, together with multiple addition compounds. The reaction showed to be stereoselective only when the substituents were aromatic. Acid hydrolysis of compounds 3a and 4a produced a mixture of (E) and (Z)-3,5-disubstituted-tetrahydrofuran-2-ones ( 8a, 9a ). Smooth methanolysis of the ring led to (E) and (Z)-1-benzamido-cyclopropanecarboxylic esters ( 10a-c, 11a-c ), which, on acid hydrolysis, gave (E) and (Z)-1-amino-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylic acids 12a and 13a . The pmr spectra have been analyzed by an iterative computer method, and the computed best values obtained have been used to deduce the stereochemistry of the spiroderivatives.     

Potassium Fluoride Promoted Reaction of 3-Acylsubsti-Tuted 2H-1-Benzopyran-2-Ones with Acid Anhydrides. An Improved Method for the Synthesis of 4-(2-Oxoalkyl)-2H-Chroman-2-Ones. Part III1

The reaction of 3-acylsubstituted 2H-1-benzo-pyran-2-ones 1, 5 and 11a-c with acid anhydrides in the presence of potassium fluoride (KF)/molecular sieves 4A gives the 4-(2-oxoalkyl)-2-oxochromans 2, 6 and 12a-c as the main products. Also the 3-carboxylic acid derivatives, such as esters and N,N-dialkylamides, of 2H-1-benzopyran-2-one (11d-g) react with isobutyric acid anhydride in the presence of KF/molecular sieves 4A to give the corresponding 2-oxochroman-4-acetic acid derivatives.     

A general method for the preparation of 2-substituted-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids

A general method for preparing 2-substituted-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids and 2-substituted-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids as new analogs in the quinolone class of antiinfectives has been developed. The reaction of a Grignard reagent in the presence of copper(I) iodide with the 4-oxo-3-quinolinecar-boxylic acid esters and 4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid esters yields the desired 2-substituent. Re-introduction of the 2,3-double bond is effected by phenylselenation of the 3-position, oxidation to the selen-oxide, and in situ syn-elimisation. Depending on the degree of steric crowding between the 2-substituent and the 3-carboxylic acid group, hydrolysis of the ester to the carboxylic acid could be carried out under acidic or basic conditions.     

The synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-3-oxo-2H-benzo-1,4-thiazine-2-carboxylic acids

The synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-3-oxo-2H-benzo-1,4-thiazine-2-carboxylic acids 4a, b, 6a -e is presented.

Heterotricyclic systems. Part I. Synthesis of new dipyridopyrazines

Pursuing our previous research on azaquinoxalinones (1,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-b]/[3,4-b]pyrazinones) we prepared, through a reductive cyclization of N-(3′-nitropyridin-2′-yl)piperidine-2-carboxylic acids 3a-c , a set of derivatives of a new tricyclic structure, 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-5H-dipyrido[1,2-a:3′,2′-e]pyrazin-6(6aH)-ones 4a-c. Starting from these compounds we obtained substituted amides 5a-c and, from 4a , the amidines 6a-c. In the synthesis of 6 , a dehydrogenation reaction occurred giving rise to 7. The compounds 9 and 10 , characterized by a different ring-fusion between the pyridine and pyrazine rings, were synthesized in a similar manner.

A general procedure is described for the preparation of 6-substituted-5-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters (6-substituted-5-hydroxy-3(2H)-pyridazinone-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters).
