Dapson in Heterocyclic Chemistry,Part III: Synthesis,Antimicrobial, and Antitumor Activities of Some New Bisheterocyclic Compounds Containing Biologically Active Diphenylsulfone Moiety

The key intermediate diisothiocyanate 2 was allowed to react with 5-amino-3-methyl-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile 3, ethyl 5-amino-1-phenyl-pyrazole-4-carboxylate 6, 2-amino-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-3-car-bonitrile 9, ethyl-2-amino-tetra-hydrobenzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylate 12, and/or 1,2,4-triazole 15 to give the corresponding biscompounds 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 16, respectively. The structure of the synthesized compounds was elucidated by elemental analyses and spectral data. Some of the prepared compounds were tested for their antimicrobial and antitumor activities.     

The Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Regioisomeric Benzothiazolyl Coumarins

Various 4-aryloxymethylcoumarins have been obtained by the r.t. allylic substitution with formylphenols. These have been further reacted with o-aminothiophenol resulting in the formation of a benzothiazole skeleton. These compounds have been synthesised with a view to study their potential as microbial growth inhibitors. Comparative studies on the spectral and antimicrobial activities have also been carried out.     

Design,Synthesis, and Antifungal Activities of New β‐Methoxyacrylate Analogues

Strobilurins have become one of the most important classes of agricultural fungicides. To search for new strobilurin derivatives with high activity against resistant pathogens, a series of new β‐methoxyacrylate analogues containing substituted pyrimidine in the side chain with strobilurin pharmacophore were synthesized and their biological activities were tested. The compounds were confirmed and characterized by ¹H‐NMR, elemental analysis and mass spectroscopy. The bioassays indicated that most of the compounds 1 exhibited potent antifungal activities against Colletotrichum orbiculare, Botrytis cinerea Pers and Phytophthora capsici Leonian at a concentration of 50 μg mL^?1. Notably, compound 1b (R = 2,5‐dimethylphenyl) showed better antifungal activity against all the tested fungi than the commercial strobilurin fungicide azoxystrobin.     

Synthesis and reactions of 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one derivative bearing pyrazolyl moiety as antimicrobial and antioxidant agents

Ring opening of 4-aryl-2-phenyloxazol-5-one 1 with 2-aminobenzoic acid in acetic acid and n-butanol gave compounds 2 and 3, respectively. The 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one derivative 4 was synthesized by refluxing of compound 2 in acetic anhydride. Then it reacted with different nitrogen nucleophiles such as hydrazine hydrate, phenylhydrazine, cyclohexylamine, piperidine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, semicarbazide hydrochloride, cyanoacetohydrazide and methyl glycinate hydrochloride to give compounds 5–14 in order to study the behavior of these nucleophilic reagents on the performed ring system. All the structures of the newly prepared compounds were characterized by their IR, ¹H-, 13C-NMR and MS spectral data. Some of the synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. Compound 5 showed remarkable activity upon this screening.     

Zeolite‐Supported One‐Pot Synthesis of Bis‐azetidinones under Microwave Irradiation

In an attempt to synthesize antibacterial agents effective against gram‐positive and gram‐negative bacteria, the efficient synthesis of novel bis‐azetidinones ( 3a–j ) has been established. Thus, cycloaddition reaction of substituted bis‐imines with chloroacetylchloride under microwave irradiation in the presence of zeolite yielded bis‐azetidinones ( 3a–j ). Structures of the synthesized compounds have been elucidated on the basis of their elemental analysis and spectral data (IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, and mass spectra). The synthesized bis‐azetidinones were screened for their antibacterial activity against five microorganisms: Bacillus subtilis, Proteus vulgaris, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli. They were found to exhibit good to moderate antibacterial activity.     

Synthesis and Reactions of Some Novel Nicotinonitrile,Thiazolotriazole, and Imidazolotriazole Derivatives for Antioxidant Evaluation

The novel 2-(1H)-pyridone, the lead compound of the pyridone derivative 1, reacted with an electrophilic reagent (ethyl chloroacetate) to give the corresponding ester 2. Condensation of compound 2 with thiosemicarbazide and/or hydrazine hydrate afforded the mercaptotriazole and the corresponding acetic acid hydrazide derivatives 3 and 4, respectively. The latter compound reacted with ethyl acetoacetate, ethyl cyanoacetate, and maleic anhydride to give compounds 5, 6, and 7, respectively. Alkylation of compound 3 with methyl iodide or chloroacetic acid afforded methylsulfanyltriazole and thiazolotriazole derivatives 8 and 9, respectively. Compound 8 reacted with glycine to afford the imidazotriazole derivative 10. Both compounds 9 and 10 reacted with glucose and benzaldehyde to give compounds 11, 12, 13, and 14, respectively. Some of the prepared products were selected and subjected to screening for their antioxidant activity.     

Surface and Antimicrobial Properties of N-Palmitoyl Amino Acid–Based Surfactants

Synthesized sodium N-pamitoyl amino acids were evaluated for surface and antimicrobial properties and compared with sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). Emulsion stability of the amino acid surfactants and calcium tolerance of the sodium N-palmitoyl isoleucine were better as compared to SLS. Wetting ability and foaming properties of the palmitic acid-based surfactants were inferior to SLS. N-Acyl amino acids exhibited better antibacterial activity compared to sodium salts of N-acyl amino acids and standard compounds against Staphylococcus aureus MLS-16 and Bacillus subtilis. These studies revealed that the palmitoyl amino acid surfactants can be exploited in household, skin care formulations, and industrial applications.     

Studies on the Synthesis and Antiproliferative Activities of 13‐cis‐Retinoyl Sugar Derivatives

New retinoyl sugar derivatives of 13‐cis‐retinoic acid were synthesized in three ways in this paper in order to enhance pharmacal effects, especially antiproliferative activities of 13‐cis‐retinoic acid. Their structures were confirmed by IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, and MS spectra and their antiproliferative activities were determined in vitro using human cancer lines. Results showed that some compounds possessed potential antitumor activities.
