An expeditious and green synthesis of new enaminones and study their chemical reactivity toward some different amines and binucleophiles under environmentally friendly conditions

AbstractThe condensation reaction of 3-heteroaromatic-3-oxopropanenitriles 3, 4 and 7 with dimethylformamide–dimethylacetal (DMF–DMA) gave the corresponding enaminones 8, 9 and 10, respectively. Nucleophilic substitution of 8 and 9 with different amines resulted in a new derivatives of enaminones 11–18. The reactivity of enaminones 8 and 9 toward some nitrogen nucleophiles was investigated with a view to synthesize new heterocyclic systems. Thus, treatment of compounds 8 and 9 with phenylhydrazine afforded the pyrazole derivatives 19 and 20, respectively. On the other hand, reacting 8 and 9 with guanidine gave the pyrimidines 21 and 22, respectively. Treatment of compound 9 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride afforded the aminoisoxazoles 23. The foregoing reactions were carried out with conventional heating and under green conditions [ultrasound (US) irradiations or ionic liquids (ILs)] and a comparative study was employed. All the new structures are fully characterized

Microwave Assisted Condensation Reactions of 2-Aryl Hydrazonopropanals with Nucleophilic Reagents and Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate

The reaction of methyl ketones 1a-g with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal (DMFDMA) afforded the enaminones 2a-g, which were coupled with diazotized aromatic amines 3a,b to give the corresponding aryl hydrazones 6a-h. Condensation of compounds 6a-h with some aromatic heterocyclic amines afforded iminoarylhydrazones 9a-m. Enaminoazo compounds 12a,b could be obtained from condensation of 6c with secondary amines. The reaction of 6e,h with benzotriazolylacetone yielded 14a,b. Also, the reaction of 6a,b,d-f,h with glycine and hippuric acid in acetic anhydride afforded pyridazinone derivatives 17a-f. Synthesis of pyridazine carboxylic acid derivatives 22a,b from the reaction of 6b,e with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) in the presence of triphenylphosphine at room temperature is also reported. Most of these reactions were conducted under irradiation in a microwave oven in the absence of solvent in an attempt to improve the product yields and to reduce the reaction times

Microwave and ultrasound promoted synthesis of substituted new arylhydrazono pyridinones

AbstractA variety of arylhydrazonopyridinones 6a,b were prepared via heating cyanoacetamide derivative with ethyl acetoacetate in the absence of solvent under reflux conventionally or ultrasound irradiation or in a microwave oven then coupling with heteroaromatic diazonium salts. Several attempts were made to synthesize corresponding aminothienopyridinones 7a,b from 6a,b. Also, attempts to add electron poor olefins to 6a,b have failed and only arylhydrazonopyridinones recovered

Structural assignments are based on spectroscopic data and confirmed in some cases by X-ray crystallography

Synthesis, characterization and evaluation of 1,3,5-triazine aminobenzoic acid derivatives for their antimicrobial activity

Abstract Background Replacement of chloride ions in cyanuric chloride give several variants of 1,3,5-triazine derivatives which were investigated as biologically active small molecules. These compounds exhibit antimalarial, antimicrobial, anti-cancer and anti-viral activities, among other beneficial properties. On the other hand, treatment of bacterial infections remains a challenging therapeutic problem because of the emerging infectious diseases and the increasing number of multidrug-resistant microbial pathogens. As multidrug-resistant bacterial strains proliferate, the necessity for effective therapy has stimulated research into the design and synthesis of novel antimicrobial molecules. Results 1,3,5-Triazine 4-aminobenzoic acid derivatives were prepared by conventional method or by using microwave irradiation. Using microwave irradiation gave the desired products in less time, good yield and higher purity. Esterification of the 4-aminobenzoic acid moiety afforded methyl ester analogues. The s-triazine derivatives and their methyl ester analogues were fully characterized by FT-IR, NMR (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR), mass spectra and elemental analysis. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Some tested compounds showed promising activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Conclusions Three series of mono-, di- and trisubstituted s-triazine derivatives and their methyl ester analogues were synthesized and fully characterized. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Compounds (10), (16), (25) and (30) have antimicrobial activity against S. aureus comparable to that of ampicillin, while the activity of compound (13) is about 50% of that of ampicillin. Compounds (13) and (14) have antimicrobial activity against E. coli comparable to that of ampicillin, while the activity of compounds (9–12) and (15) is about 50% of that of ampicillin. Furthermore, minimum inhibitory concentrations values for clinical isolates of compounds (10), (13), (14), (16), (25) and (30) were measured. Compounds (10) and (13) were more active against MRSA and E. coli than ampicillin. Invitro cytotoxicity results revealed that compounds (10) and (13) were nontoxic up to 250 µg/mL (with SI = 10) and 125 µg/mL (with SI = 5), respectively. Graphical abstract Three series of mono-, di- and trisubstituted s-triazine derivatives and their methyl ester analogues were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Several compounds have antimicrobial activity against S. aureus and E. coli comparable to that of ampicillin

Multi Component Reactions under Increased Pressure: On the Mechanism of Formation of Pyridazino[5,4,3-de][1,6]naphthyridine Derivatives by the Reaction of Malononitrile, Aldehydes and 2-Oxoglyoxalarylhydrazones in Q-Tubes

Efficient synthesis of phenanthridin-6(5H)-one derivatives 12a–n in a four-component reaction of aldehyde hydrazone, aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile in Q-Tubes is reported. The results showed that the methodology has the advantage of being a one-pot synthesis of tricyclic systems in good yields. Potential routes leading to formation of compounds 12 are discussed. The structures of the synthesized compounds could be unequivocally established via X-ray crystal structure determination and spectroscopic methods

Structural Homology-Based Drug Repurposing Approach for Targeting NSP12 SARS-CoV-2

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, also known as SARS-CoV-2, is the causative agent of the COVID-19 global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 has a highly conserved non-structural protein 12 (NSP-12) involved in RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) activity. For the identification of potential inhibitors for NSP-12, computational approaches such as the identification of homologous proteins that have been previously targeted by FDA-approved antivirals can be employed. Herein, homologous proteins of NSP-12 were retrieved from Protein DataBank (PDB) and the evolutionary conserved sequence and structure similarity of the active site of the RdRp domain of NSP-12 was characterized. The identified homologous structures of NSP-12 belonged to four viral families: Coronaviridae, Flaviviridae, Picornaviridae, and Caliciviridae, and shared evolutionary conserved relationships. The multiple sequences and structural alignment of homologous structures showed highly conserved amino acid residues that were located at the active site of the RdRp domain of NSP-12. The conserved active site of the RdRp domain of NSP-12 was evaluated for binding affinity with the FDA-approved antivirals, i.e., Sofosbuvir and Dasabuvir in a molecular docking study. The molecular docking of Sofosbuvir and Dasabuvir with the active site that contains conserved motifs (motif A-G) of the RdRp domain of NSP-12 revealed significant binding affinity. Furthermore, MD simulation also inferred the potency of Sofosbuvir and Dasabuvir. In conclusion, targeting the active site of the RdRp domain of NSP-12 with Dasabuvir and Sofosbuvir might reduce viral replication and pathogenicity and could be further studied for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2
