Amphoteric 2-(sulfonylamino)benzaldehydes,secondary amines and isocyanides in the multicomponent synthesis of elusive N-alkyl-2,3-diaminoindoles

A novel interrupted Ugi reaction between ortho-sulfonylaminated aryl aldehydes, secondary amines, and isocyanides affords in good to high yields N-alkyl-2,3-diaminoindoles, providing access to a so far unexplored area of the indole chemical space. With only one single chemical operation, this novel reaction affords a broad gamma of substituted 2,3-diaminoindoles with five points of diversity. The success of this novel multicomponent transformation lies in presence of the amphoteric sulfonylamino group, which sequentially acts as a Brønsted acids and as a nucleophile the lack of need for additional catalysts and the high atom economy, with the loss of only one molecule of water, renders this approach a very effective one.     

2-{[1-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}benzoic acid immobilized Amberlite XAD-16 as metal extractant

2-{[1-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}benzoic acid (DMABA) was loaded on Amberlite XAD-16 (AXAD-16) via azo linker and the resulting resin AXAD-16-DMABA explored for enrichment of Zn(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Fe(III) and Co(II). The optimum pH values for extraction are 6.5-7.0, 5.0-6.0, 5.5-7.5, 5.0-6.5, 6.5-8.0, 5.5-7.0, 4.0-5.0 and 6.0-7.0, respectively. The sorption capacity was found between 97 and 515 μmol g⁻¹ and the preconcentration factors from 100 to 450. Tolerance limits for foreign species are reported. The kinetics of sorption is fast as t_1/2 is ≤5 min. The chelating resin can be reused for 50 cycles of sorption-desorption without any significant change (<1.5%) in the sorption capacity. The limit of detection values (blank +3 s) are 1.12, 1.38, 1.76, 0.67, 0.77, 2.52, 5.92 and 1.08 μg L⁻¹ for Zn(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Fe(III) and Co(II), respectively. The enrichment on AXAD-16-DMABA coupled with monitoring by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) is used to determine all the metal ion ions in river and synthetic water samples, Co in vitamin tablets and Zn in milk samples.

Triorganotin(IV) esters of 2-{[ N -(2-oxo-2H-naphthalene-1-yliden)hydrazo]}benzoic acid,instability of the cyclohexyl derivative

Three triorganotin(IV) esters of 2-{[N-(2-oxo-2H-naphthalene-1-yliden)hydrazo]}benzoic acid were prepared and studied by IR and NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography for the tributyl- and triethyltin(IV)-2-{[N-(2-oxo-2H-naphthalene-1-yliden)hydrazo]}benzoates (2, 3). These compounds are monomeric in solution with four-coordinate tin. The hydrazo tautomeric forms are present in chloroform solution as well as in the solid state. The coordination geometries of tin in 2 and 3 are trigonal bipyramidal with all three carbons in equatorial positions, one carboxylic oxygen and the quinone-type oxygen from adjacent molecules are in axial positions forming centrosymmetric dimers with the ring containing 20 members. The yield of the tricyclohexyltin(IV) derivative (4) is much lower than 2 or 3, with instability towards moisture in solution. The product of the reaction with water is the bis(µ²-hydroxo)-bis{2-{[N-(2-oxo-2H-naphthalene-1-yliden)hydrazo]}benzoato}tetracyclohexylditin (4a) dimer. The tin is five-coordinate in the solid state by two cyclohexyl and two hydroxy groups, the last coordination site is occupied by a monodentate carboxy group. The dimeric form of this compound remains in chloroform solution.     

Design,synthesis and MAO inhibitory activity of 2-(arylmethylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-3-one derivatives

A series of 2-(arylmethylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-3-one derivatives(aurones, 1–20) were synthesized and screened for their inhibitory activity against h MAO. Seventeen compounds(1–5, 7–17,19) were found to be selective towards h MAO-B, while two were non-selective(6 and 20) and one(18)selective towards h MAO-A. Compound 17(Ki = 0.10 0.01 mmol/L) was found to be equally potent and selective towards h MAO-B, when compared with the standard drug Selegiline(Ki = 0.12 0.01 mmol/L).Nature and position of substitution in aryl ring at 2nd position of benzofuranone influences h MAO-B inhibitory potency, while their structural bulkiness influences selectivity between h MAO-A and h MAO-B.Molecular docking simulation was also carried out to understand the interaction of inhibitor with the enzyme at molecular level, and we found the docking results were in good agreement with the experimental values. Comparison of the activity profile of the aurones with their corresponding flavones reported earlier by our group revealed that there exists no difference in potency as well as selectivity.
