Synthesis of Novel N-Acylhydrazones and Their C-N/N-N Bond Conformational Characterization by NMR Spectroscopy

In this article, a synthesis of N’-(benzylidene)-2-(6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-1-yl)acetohydrazides and their structural interpretation by NMR experiments is described in an attempt to explain the duplication of some peaks in their ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra. Twenty new 6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline substituted N-acylhydrazones 6(a–t) were synthesized from 2-chloro-6-methylquinoline-3-carbaldehyde (1) in four steps. 2-Chloro-6-methylquinoline-3-carbaldehyde (1) afforded 6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (2), which upon N-alkylation yielded 2-(6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-1-yl)acetate (3). The hydrazinolysis of 3 followed by the condensation of resulting 2-(6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-1-yl)acetohydrazide (4) with aromatic aldehydes gave N-acylhydrazones 6(a–t). Structures of the synthesized compounds were established by readily available techniques such as FT-IR, NMR and mass spectral studies. The stereochemical behavior of 6(a–t) was studied in dimethyl sulfoxide-d₆ solvent by means of ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR techniques at room temperature. NMR spectra revealed the presence of N’-(benzylidene)-2-(6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-1-yl)acetohydrazides as a mixture of two conformers, i.e., E_(C=N)(N-N) synperiplanar and E_(C=N)(N-N) antiperiplanar at room temperature in DMSO-d₆. The ratio of both conformers was also calculated and E_{(C=N) (N-N)} syn-periplanar conformer was established to be in higher percentage in equilibrium with the E_{(C=N) (N-N)} anti-periplanar form.     

Facile synthesis of seven to nine-membered-fused tricyclic quinolones and quinolinium salts under phase transfer catalyzed conditions

Phase transfer catalyzed one-pot syntheses of fused oxazepino, oxazocino, and oxazonino quinolinium cations and quinolones were achieved from 8-hydroxy quinoline derivatives with 1,ω-dihaloalkanes. Structures of all the products were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis of three compounds and graphical superposition of the structures indicate that products having seven-membered ring are less planar compared to the product having eight-membered ring.     

THE INFRARED SPECTRA (4000 - 50 cm−1) OF COMPLEXES OF QUINOLINE N-OXIDE AND ITS PERDEUTERATED ANALOGUE WITH METAL(II) PERCHLORATES OF THE FIRST TRANSITION SERIES

Abstract

Infrared assignments (4000 - 50 cm^?1) are presented for the complexes [M(quinO)_n](ClO₄)₂(quinO = quinoline N-oxide; n = 6 for Mn, Co, Ni; n = 5 for Zn, and n = 4 for Cu) and their perdeuterated analogues. The spectra are consistent with octahedral structures for the 6-coordinate complexes, a trigonal bipyramidal structure for the Zn(II) complex and a square planar structure for the Cu(II) complex, with some distortion from idealised symmetry evident for each complex. In the Mn(II) complex, strong coupling occurs between the vM-O of lowest frequency and the ligand vibration, xN-O (mode 45). In the Cu(II) complex, the single vCu-O is strongly coupled with the ring torsion (mode 28).

Synthesis and characterization of some pyrimidine–quinoline clubbed molecules and their microbicidal efficacy

The required chalcones 1a–h were prepared by reaction of aryl acetophenone with different aryl aldehydes, which in turn treated with guanidine nitrate, yielded 4-(substituted phenyl)-6-(substituted phenyl)-2-pyrimidinamines 2a–h. Novel pyrimidine–quinoline clubbed molecules 3a–h have been prepared by reaction of 2a–h with 4-chloro-2,6-dimethylquinoline. All the compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and spectral studies. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities.     

Copper-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling of 2-Aminoaryl Methanols with Nitriles for Accessing Quinazolines and Quinolines

A copper acetate monohydrate catalyzed simple, effective and economic protocol has been developed for the construction of quinazoline derivatives via acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of easily available 2-aminoaryl methanols and nitriles. The methodology was also highly effective for the synthesis of medicinally important quinolines analogues. The reactions proceeded in presence of KO^tBu in toluene at 110 °C for 5 h without the requirement of inert condition, external additives and ligands.     

Unified Approach to the Asymmetric Synthesis of Higher Homologues of (3-Quinolyl)-alanine

A new protocol based on a palladium-catalyzed Heck reaction of an amino acid–derived vinyl unit with 3-bromoquinoline has been developed to access the title compounds in good yield and optical purity.     

Clean Procedure for Synthesis of Chromeno[4,3‐b]benzo [f]quinolin‐6‐one Derivatives: Reaction of N‐arylidenenaphthalen‐2‐amine with 4‐Hydroxycoumarin in Aqueous Media

A short and simple synthesis of chromeno[4,3‐b]benzo[f]quinolin‐6‐one derivatives was accomplished in good to high yields via the reaction of N‐arylidenenaphthalen‐2‐amine with 4‐hydroxycoumarin in aqueous media catalyzed by TEBAC. The structures were established by spectroscopic data and further confirmed by X‐ray analysis. In addition, water was chosen as a green solvent.

The behavior of the 2-methylthio-pyrimido[4,5-b]quinolin-4-one towards differently substituted amines is reported. Also, the reactivity of 3-aminothiazolo[3′,2′ :1,2]-pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-2-carbonitrile towards formic acid, urea, thiourea, formamide, and carbon disulfide is discussed. Some of the synthesized derivatives possess biological activities as anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. Some of these selective biologically active compounds were screened for antioxidant properties.
