Synthesis, reactions and biological activity of some new bis-heterocyclic ring compounds containing sulphur atom.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The derivatives of thieno[2,3-b]thiophene belong to a significant category of heterocyclic compounds, which have shown a wide spectrum of medical and industrial application.

Results

A new building block with two electrophilic center of thieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives 2 has been reported by one-pot reaction of diketone derivative 1 with Br2/AcOH in excellent yield. A variety of heteroaromatics having bis(1H-imidazo[1,2a] benzimidazole), bis(1H-imidazo[1,2-b][1,2,4]triazole)-3-methyl-4-phenylthieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives, dioxazolo-, dithiazolo-, and 1H-imidazolo-3-methyl-4-phenylthieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives as well pyrrolo, thiazolo -3-methyl-4-phenylthieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives have been designed, synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for their biological activity. Compounds 3-9 showed good bioassay result. These new derivatives were evaluated for anti-cancer activity against PC-3 cell lines, in vitro antioxidant potential and ?-glucuronidase and ?-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Compound 3 (IC50?=?56.26?±?3.18??M) showed a potent DPPH radical scavenging antioxidant activity and found to be more active than standard N-acetylcystein (IC50?=?105.9?±?1.1??M). Compounds 8a (IC50?=?13.2?±?0.34??M) and 8b (IC50?=?14.1?±?0.28??M) found as potent inhibitor of ?-glucusidase several fold more active than the standard acarbose (IC50?=?841?±?1.73??M). Most promising results were obtained in ?-glucuronidase enzyme inhibition assay. Compounds 5 (IC50?=?0.13?±?0.019??M), 6 (IC50?=?19.9?±?0.285??M), 8a (IC50?=?1.2?±?0.0785??M) and 9 (IC50?=?0.003?±?0.09??M) showed a potent inhibition of ?-glucuronidase. Compound 9 was found to be several hundred fold more active than standard D-Saccharic acid 1,4-lactone (IC50?=?45.75?±?2.16??M).

Conclusions

Synthesis, characterization, and in vitro biological activity of a series of thieno[2,3-b]thiophene have been investigated.

Project description:Currently, there is a growing interest in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds containing hydroquinoline fragments. This surge can be attributed to the broad range of pharmaceutical and industrial applications that these compounds possess. In this study, the synthesis of both linear and fused heterocyclic systems that incorporate hydroquinoline fragments was described. Furthermore, the pharmacological activity spectra of the synthesized compounds were predicted using the in silico method, employing the Prediction of Activity Spectra of Substances (PASS) program. Hydroquinolines containing the nitrile functionality 7 and 8 were synthesized through the reaction of the corresponding hydroquinolinecarbaldehyde 5a, 6b with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and iodine in aqueous ammonia under ambient conditions, respectively. 2-Phenyl-1,3-oxazol-5(4 H)-ones 9a, b and 10a, b were synthesized via the condensation of compounds 5a, b and 6a, b with hippuric acid in acetic acid in 30-60% yield. When the methyl activated 7-methylazolopyrimidines 11a, b were reacted with N-alkyl-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-6-carbaldehydes 6a, b, 60-70% yield of triazolo/pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl carboxylic acids 12a, b were obtained. The condensation of 7-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetramethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline 3 h with dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) and ethyl acetoacetate afforded cyclic products 16 and 17, respectively. The condensation reaction of 6-formyl-7-hydroxy-1,2,2,4-tetramethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline 5e with methylene-active compounds such as ethyl cyanoacetate/dimethyl-3-oxopentanedioate/ethyl acetoacetate/diethylmalonate/Meldrum's acid afforded 3-substituted coumarins 19 and 21 containing dihydroquinoline moiety. The pentacyclic coumarin 22 was obtained via the tandom condensation reaction of malononitrile with 5e in the presence of a catalytic amount of piperidine in ethanol. The biological activities of the synthesized compounds were predicted using the PASS program. Based on the prognosis, compounds 13a, b, and 14 exhibited a high likelihood of being active as inhibitors of gluconate 2-dehydrogenase, as well as possessing antiallergic, antiasthmatic, and antiarthritic properties, with a probability value (Pa) ranging from 0.849 to 0.870. Furthermore, it was discovered that compounds 7 and 8 tended to act as effective progesterone antagonists and displayed antiallergic, antiasthmatic, and antiarthritic effects (Pa = 0.276-0.827). Among the hydroquinolines containing coumarin moieties, compounds 17, 19a, and 19c were predicted to be potent progesterone antagonists, with Pa values of 0.710, 0.630, and 0.615, respectively.

Project description:A series of ruthenium(ii) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands were successfully synthesized by transmetalation reactions between silver(i) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes and [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 in dichloromethane under Ar conditions. All new compounds were characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods. These ruthenium(ii)-NHC complexes were found to be efficient precatalysts for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones by using 2-propanol as the hydrogen source in the presence of KOH as a co-catalyst. The antibacterial activity of ruthenium N-heterocyclic carbene complexes 3a-f was measured by disc diffusion method against Gram positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Compounds 3d exhibited potential antibacterial activity against five bacterial species among the six used as indicator cells. The product 3e inhibits the growth of all the six tested microorganisms. Moreover, the antioxidant activity determination of these complexes 3a-f, using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) as reagent, showed that compounds 3b and 3d possess DPPH and ABTS antiradical activities. From a concentration of 1 mg ml-1, these two complexes presented a similar scavenging activity to that of the two used controls gallic acid (GA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). From a concentration of 10 mg ml-1, the percentage inhibition of complexes 3b and 3d was respectively 70% and 90%. In addition, these two Ru-NHC complexes exhibited antifungal activity against Candida albicans. Investigation of the anti-acetylcholinesterase activity of the studied complexes showed that compounds 3a, 3b, 3d and 3e exhibited good activity at 100 μg ml-1 and product 3d is the most active. In a cytotoxicity study the complexes 3 were evaluated against two human cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7. Both 3d and 3e complexes were found to be active against the tested cell lines showing comparable activity with examples in the literature.
