Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new derivatives of pyrano[4',3':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine and new heterocyclic systems

Taking into account previously obtained biological results on some polyheterocyclic compounds (containing different heteroatoms) and in particular on several 8-amino-5-isopropyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines Ia-v we have carried out the synthesis of twentyone 8-amino-5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines 6. Therefore we have slightly modified the structure of the previously studied I introducing at C-5 an isobutyl group instead of the previously examined isopropyl ones in order to see if this variation (changing a little the lipophilicity) will affect the biological activity. Furthermore thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-8-thione 7 and their S-alkylated 8 were synthesized. Finally by alkylation of 5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-thioxo-1,4,10,11-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-8(9H)-one 3 with alkyl dichlorides (bifunctional reagents) we realized the cyclization of a thiazole or thiazine ring on the [b] side of the pyrimidine ring with formation of the new condensed pentaheterocyclic systems: pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-one 11 and pyrano[4''',3''':4'',5'']pyrido[3'',2'':4',5']thieno[3',2':4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-8-one 12. It was found that some of the synthesized compounds showed interesting antimicrobial activity (by agar diffusion method) against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacilli strains.     

Theoretical analysis of spin crossover in iron(II) [2×2] molecular grids

We use quantum-chemical density functional theory calculations to elucidate the origin of spin-crossover pathways in two iron(II) [2×2] molecular grids with carbohydrazide-based bridging ligands. The complexes are characterized energetically and structurally in five available spin states. Special attention is paid to analysis of the structural distortion induced on each iron center by spin transition on any of its neighbors. The evolution of coordination polyhedra is monitored using the Continuous Shape Measures. It is demonstrated that a succession of spin transitions on different centers depends on the character of the induced distortion, either approaching or getting them away from a more regular low-spin geometry. These effects, resulting from the elasticity of bridging ligands, can be modulated by weak perturbations such as a change of the positions of the hydrogen atoms.     

Phosphorylation of oxyethylated resorcinol and calix[4]resorcinarene with P(III) acid amides

Abstract

Phosphorylation of 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethoxy)benzene and octa(2-hydroxyethyl) calix[4]-resorcinarenes with P(III) acid amides and chloramides has been studied. It has been determined that the nature of phosphorous acid amides affects significantly the synthetic result of the reaction.     

Coordination Mode of the Nickel(II) Cation with N‐Diisopropoxyphosphinyl‐p‐bromothiobenzamide

Reaction of the potassium salt of N‐diisopropoxyphosphinyl‐p‐bromothiobenzamide p‐BrC₆H₄C(S)NHP(O)(OiPr)₂ ( HL ) with Ni(NO₃)₂ in aqueous EtOH leads to complex of formula [Ni(HL‐O)₂(L‐O,S)₂] ( 1 ). The structure of 1 was investigated by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, IR, ¹H and ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectroscopy, MALDI and microanalysis. The nickel(II) ion in 1 has a tetragonal‐bipyramidal environment, (O^ax)₂(O^eq)₂(S^eq)₂, with two neutral ligand molecules coordinated in axial positions through the oxygen atoms of the P=O groups. The equatorial plane of bipyramide is formed by two anionic ligands involving 1,5‐O,S‐coordination mode. The chelating ligands are bound in trans configuration.     

Synthesis of ONO-Ligated Tetrylenes Based on 2,6-bis(2-Hydroxyphenyl)pyridines: Influence of Ligand Sterics on the Structure of the Products

A series of novel tetrylenes based on three 2,6-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyridines 4 a – 4 c have been obtained by the reaction of Lappert's tetrylenes E[N(SiMe₃)₂]₂ (E=Ge, Sn) with corresponding tridentate pyridine-linked phenol-based ligands. It was found that the structure of the ligand and the size of the atom of the group 14 element drastically affect the structure of the reaction product. Ligand 4 c with a bulky tert-butyl group leads to monomeric tetrylenes, while ligands with less bulky groups lead to bis-ligand derivatives of M(IV) (M=Ge, Sn) and a coordination polymer. Also, derivatives of germanium (IV) and tin (IV) were obtained by the metathesis reaction of MCl₄ (M=Ge, Sn) with lithium phenoxides. The compositions and structures of the novel compounds were established by elemental analysis and ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn ( 5 – 7 ), ¹H DOSY ( 6 ) NMR spectroscopy, in the solid state by X-ray diffraction analysis (germylene 10 , stannylene 6 , Ge⁴⁺ compound 8 , Sn⁴⁺ compound 7 ) and ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer spectrum of tin complex 6 . All the synthesized tetrylenes are monomeric. Tetrylenes 6 and 10 were characterized by cyclic voltammetry. A study of the redox behavior of 6 , 10 by cyclic voltammetry on a glassy carbon working electrode in acetonitrile solution of 0.1 M Bu₄NPF₆ as a supporting electrolyte showed that these compounds can be both oxidized and reduced electrochemically in the accessible potential range.     

Hyperbranched Poly([1,2,3]-triazole-[1,3,5]-triazine)s: An Unusual High Degree of Branching as an Effect of a Polyaddition Kinetics

The results of the kinetic study of melt and solution polymerization at the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the AB₂ monomer – 2-azido-4,6-bis(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)-[1,3,5]-triazine (ABPOT) are presented in this work as well as the results of the ¹³C-NMR characterization of the obtained hyperbranched poly([1,2,3]-triazole-[1,3,5]-triazine)s. It is established, that the first-shell substitution effect during polyaddition process and unusual high degree of branching (up to 0.9) of polymers synthesized in melt are held.
