Quinazoline Derivatives Designed as Efflux Pump Inhibitors: Molecular Modeling and Spectroscopic Studies

Multidrug resistance of bacteria is a worrying concern in the therapeutic field and an alternative method to combat it is designing new efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs). This article presents a molecular study of two quinazoline derivatives, labelled BG1189 and BG1190, proposed as EPIs. In silico approach investigates the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profile of BG1189 and BG1190 quinazolines. Molecular docking and predicted ADMET features suggest that BG1189 and BG1190 may represent attractive candidates as antimicrobial drugs. UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy was employed to study the time stability of quinazoline solutions in water or in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), in constant environmental conditions, and to determine the influence of usual storage temperature, normal room lighting and laser radiation (photostability) on samples stability. The effects of irradiation on BG1189 and BG1190 molecules were also assessed through Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. FTIR spectra showed that laser radiation breaks some chemical bonds affecting the substituents and the quinazoline radical of the compounds.     

Cyclocondensation of 2-Aminobenzimidazole with Dimedone and Its Arylidene Derivatives

The reactions of 2-aminobenzimidazole with substituted benzaldehydes and dimedone, 2-arylidene derivatives of dimedone, 9-arylhexahydro-1H-xanthene-1,8(2H)-diones and also with dimedone and DMF have been studied. The direction of formation of the pyrimidine ring has been established and discussed. An X-ray structural investigation of 2,2-dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzimidazo[1,2-a]quinazolin-4(1H)-one has been carried out.     

Crystal Structures of Hydrochlorides of 2,3-Pentamethylene-3, 4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one

The crystal structures of hydrate (1) and anhydrate (2) forms of 2,3-pentamethylene-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one hydrochloride have been determined by X-ray structure analysis. Crystal data of 1 are 2(C₁₃H₁₄N₂O)*3(HCl)*4.5 (H₂O), triclinic P?1, Z=2, a=8.004(5), b=13.129(7), c=15.725(7) Å, α=106.45(4), β=92.61(4), γ=97.98(5), R=0.0652 and 2 are C₁₃H₁₄N₂O*HCl, monoclinic C2/c, Z=8, a=21.360(4), b=5.954(1), c=21.263(4), β=117.89(3), R=0.0556. The crystal of the hydrate form 1is unstable. This form collapses easily with evaporation of H₂O and part of HCl molecules from crystals. By recrystallizing destroyed form has been obtained stable crystal form 2.     

Deoxypegan-1-one derivatives. synthesis and borohydride reduction of 3-[(E)-arylmethylidene]-3,9-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1(2H)-ones

3-[(E)-Arylmethylidene]-3,9-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1(2H)-ones were prepared by reaction of quinazolyl-2-propionic acid hydrochloride with aromatic aldehydes in acetic anhydride in the presence of Et₃N. 3-[(E)-Arylmethylidene]-1,2,3,9-tetrahydropyrrolo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1-ols were formed by reduction of the 3-arylidene derivatives with sodium borohydride in methanol, readily lost water when heated with acids, and were converted into 3-[(E)-arylmethylidene]-3,9-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-b]quinazolines. __________ Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 463–467, September–October, 2006.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic units into porphyrin derivatives

In the reaction with quinazoline and 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one, 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-methoxyphenyl)porphyrin exhibits nucleophilic properties. In quinazoline excess, C—C coupling occurs at the C=N bond of azines and position 3 of the aryl ring to form 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3-heteryl-4-methoxyphenyl)porphyrins. Monoheteryl-substituted porphyrin was obtained by the reaction of equimolar amounts of 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-methoxyphenyl)porphyrin and 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one.

Synthesis of New Pyrimidine,Quinazoline and Diazatricyclo Derivatives by Multicomponent Reaction and Evaluation of Their Biological Activity

Abstract

A series of new pyrimidine and quinazoline derivatives was synthesized by a Biginelli-like reaction of urea/thiourea, aldehyde, and ketone in the presence of hydrochloric acid as a catalyst. In a similar way, some novel diazatricyclo derivatives were obtained via a Biginelli-like reaction followed by an intramolecular Michael-type addition. The yields of products were reasonable after recrystallization from ethanol. All newly synthesized compounds were characterized using IR and NMR (¹H and ¹³C) spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The antibacterial activity of these compounds was investigated against Staphylococcus aureus (RTCC, 1885), and Escherichia Coli (ATCC, 35922).

Fe3O4@SiO2@propyl‐ANDSA: A new catalyst for the synthesis of tetrazoloquinazolines

In this paper, a mild and green protocol has been developed for the synthesis of quinazoline derivatives. The catalytic activity of 7‐aminonaphthalene‐1,3‐disulfonic acid‐functionalized magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@Propyl–ANDSA) was investigated in the one‐pot synthesis of new derivatives of tetrahydrotetrazolo[1,5‐a]quinazolines and tetrahydrobenzo[h]tetrazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolines from the reaction of aldehydes, 5‐aminotetrazole, and dimedone or 6‐methoxy‐3,4‐dihyronaphtalen‐1(2H)‐one at 100 °C in H₂O/EtOH as the solvent. The catalyst was characterized before and after the organic reaction. Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@Propyl–ANDSA showed remarkable advantages in comparison with previous methods. Advantages of the method presented here include easy purification, reusability of the catalyst, green and mild procedure, and synthesis of new derivatives in high yields within short reaction time.
