1,3,4-Oxadiazole and Heteroaromatic-Fused 1,2,4-Triazole Synthesis using Diverted Umpolung Amide Synthesis.

ABSTRACT: Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS) has emerged as a superior alternative to conventional amide synthesis methods based on carbonyl electrophiles in a range of situations, particularly when epimerization-prone couplings are prescribed. In an unanticipated development during our most recent studies, it was discovered that diacyl hydrazide products from UmAS were not formed as intermediates when using an acyl hydrazide as the amine acceptor. This resulted in a new preparation of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles from ?-bromonitroalkane donors. We hypothesized that a key tetrahedral intermediate in UmAS was diverted toward a more direct pathway to the heterocycle product rather than through formation of the diacyl hydrazide, a typical oxadiazole progenitor. In studies reported here, diversion to 1,2,4-triazole products is described, a behavior hypothesized to also result from an analogous tetrahedral intermediate, but one formed from heteroaromatic hydrazine acceptors.

Synthesis of new, highly luminescent bis(2,2'-bithiophen-5-yl) substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole.

Project description:A new synthetic approach towards the preparation of functionalised, soluble, donor-acceptor (DA) alkylbithiophene derivatives of oxadiazole, thiadiazole and triazole is reported. Taking advantage of the Fiesselmann reaction, reactive bithiophene synthons having alkyl or alkoxy substituents at designated positions are prepared. Following a synthetic strategy, featuring the bottom-up approach, sequential structural elements are built, starting from a simple thiophene compound, until the target molecule is obtained, all in good yield. Supplementing the well established methods of oxadiazole and thiadiazole synthesis, efficient ring closure reaction affording a 4H-1,2,4-triazole unit is presented. All target ambipolar compounds display strong photoluminescence with measured quantum yields up to 0.59. Modification of the demonstrated synthetic routes may be exploited for the preparation of longer, specifically functionalised oligothiophenes, coupled to other heteroaromatic cores.

Design, Synthesis and Antifungal/Nematicidal Activity of Novel 1,2,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives Containing Amide Fragments.

Project description:Plant diseases that are caused by fungi and nematodes have become increasingly serious in recent years. However, there are few pesticide chemicals that can be used for the joint control of fungi and nematodes on the market. To solve this problem, a series of novel 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives containing amide fragments were designed and synthesized. Additionally, the bioassays revealed that the compound F15 demonstrated excellent antifungal activity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (S. sclerotiorum) in vitro, and the EC50 value of that was 2.9 μg/mL, which is comparable with commonly used fungicides thifluzamide and fluopyram. Meanwhile, F15 demonstrated excellent curative and protective activity against S. sclerotiorum-infected cole in vivo. The scanning electron microscopy results showed that the hyphae of S. sclerotiorum treated with F15 became abnormally collapsed and shriveled, thereby inhibiting the growth of the hyphae. Furthermore, F15 exhibited favorable inhibition against the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) of the S. sclerotiorum (IC50 = 12.5 μg/mL), and the combination mode and binding ability between compound F15 and SDH were confirmed by molecular docking. In addition, compound F11 showed excellent nematicidal activity against Meloidogyne incognita at 200 μg/mL, the corrected mortality rate was 93.2%, which is higher than that of tioxazafen.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of 1,2,4-Thiadiazole-1,2,4-Triazole Derivatives Bearing Amide Functionality as Anticancer Agents.

Project description:A novel library of amide functionality having 1,2,4-thiadiazole-1,2,4-triazole (8a-j) analogs was designed, synthesized, and structures were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass (ESI-MS) spectral data. Further, all compounds were evaluated for their anticancer activities against four different cancer cell lines including breast cancer (MCF-7, MDA MB-231), lung cancer (A549), and prostate cancer (DU-145) by MTT reduction assay method, and etoposide acts as a standard drug. The results confirmed that majority of the synthesized compounds showed moderate to potent anticancer activities aligned with four cell lines. Among the synthesized compounds, 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e, 8g and 8i displayed more potent activity along with inhibitory concentration values ranging from 0.10?±?0.084 to 11.5?±?6.49 µM than the standard IC50 values, which ranges from 1.91?±?0.84 to 3.08?±?0.135 µM, respectively.

Umpolung reactivity in amide and peptide synthesis.

Project description:The amide bond is one of nature's most common functional and structural elements, as the backbones of all natural peptides and proteins are composed of amide bonds. Amides are also present in many therapeutic small molecules. The construction of amide bonds using available methods relies principally on dehydrative approaches, although oxidative and radical-based methods are representative alternatives. In nearly every example, carbon and nitrogen bear electrophilic and nucleophilic character, respectively, during the carbon-nitrogen bond-forming step. Here we show that activation of amines and nitroalkanes with an electrophilic iodine source can lead directly to amide products. Preliminary observations support a mechanism in which the polarities of the two reactants are reversed (German, umpolung) during carbon-nitrogen bond formation relative to traditional approaches. The use of nitroalkanes as acyl anion equivalents provides a conceptually innovative approach to amide and peptide synthesis, and one that might ultimately provide for efficient peptide synthesis that is fully reliant on enantioselective methods.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 1,2,3-Triazole Tethered Thymol-1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives as Anticancer and Antimicrobial Agents.

Project description:A library of 1,2,3-triazole-incorporated thymol-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (6-18) hasbeen synthesized and tested for anticancer and antimicrobial activities. Compounds 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 exhibited significant antiproliferative activity. Among these active derivatives, compound 2-(4-((5-((2-isopropyl-5-methylphenoxy)methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylthio)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenol (9) was the best compound against all three tested cell lines, MCF-7 (IC50 1.1 μM), HCT-116 (IC50 2.6 μM), and HepG2 (IC50 1.4 μM). Compound 9 was found to be better than the standard drugs, doxorubicin and 5-fluorouracil. These compounds showed anticancer activity through thymidylate synthase inhibition as they displayed significant TS inhibitory activity with IC50 in the range 1.95-4.24 μM, whereas the standard drug, Pemetrexed, showed IC50 7.26 μM. The antimicrobial results showed that some of the compounds (6, 7, 9, 16, and 17) exhibited good inhibition on Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The molecular docking and simulation studies supported the anticancer and antimicrobial data. It can be concluded that the synthesized 1,2,3-triazole tethered thymol-1,3,4-oxadiazole conjugates have both antiproliferative and antimicrobial potential.

Enantioselective synthesis of ?-oxy amides via Umpolung amide synthesis.

Project description:?-Oxy amides are prepared through enantioselective synthesis using a sequence beginning with a Henry addition of bromonitromethane to aldehydes and finishing with Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS). Key to high enantioselection is the finding that ortho-iodo benzoic acid salts of the chiral copper(II) bis(oxazoline) catalyst deliver both diastereomers of the Henry adduct with high enantiomeric excess, homochiral at the oxygen-bearing carbon. Overall, this approach to ?-oxy amides provides an innovative complement to alternatives that focus almost entirely on the enantioselective synthesis of ?-oxy carboxylic acids.

Synthesis and Biological Activities of Ethyl 2-(2-pyridylacetate) Derivatives Containing Thiourea, 1,2,4-triazole, Thiadiazole and Oxadiazole Moieties.

Project description:Thirty six novel heterocyclic derivatives of ethyl 2-(2-pyridylacetate) were efficiently synthesized. The new compounds involve the linkage of a 2-pyridyl ring with thiosemicarbazide (compounds 1-7), 1,2,4-triazole (compounds 1a-7a), 1,3,4-thiadiazole (compounds 1b-7b), and 1,3,4-oxadiazole (compounds 1f-7f) moieties. The last group of compounds 1e-7e involves the connection of a 2-pyridyl ring with 1,2,4-triazole and thiourea. ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS methods were used to confirm the structures of the obtained derivatives. The molecular structures of 3, 3b, 7a and 7f were further confirmed by X-ray crystallography. All obtained compounds were tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms, including Gram-positive cocci, Gram-negative rods and Candida albicans. In addition, the obtained compounds were tested for cytotoxicity and antiviral activity against HIV-1.

Umpolung amide synthesis using substoichiometric N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) and oxygen as a terminal oxidant.

Project description:Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS) provides direct access to amides from an ?-bromo nitroalkane and an amine. Based on its mechanistic bifurcation after convergent C-N bond formation, depending on the absence or presence of oxygen, UmAS using substoichiometric N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) under aerobic conditions has been developed. In combination with the enantioselective preparation of ?-bromo nitroalkane donors, this protocol realizes the goal of enantioselective ?-amino amide and peptide synthesis based solely on catalytic methods.

Synthesis and Anticancer Evaluation of New 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Derivatives.

Project description:In order to develop novel chemotherapeutic agents with potent anticancer activities, a series of new 2,5-diaryl/heteroaryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were designed and synthesized. The structures of the new compounds were established using elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectral data. The compounds were evaluated for their anticancer potential on two standardized human cell lines, HT-29 (colon adenocarcinoma) and MDA-MB-231 (breast adenocarcinoma). Cytotoxicity was measured by MTS assay, while cell cycle arrest and apoptosis assays were conducted using a flow cytometer, the results showing that the cell line MDA-MB-231 is more sensitive to the compounds' action. The results of the predictive studies using the PASS application and the structural similarity analysis indicated STAT3 and miR-21 as the most probable pharmacological targets for the new compounds. The promising effect of compound 3e, 2-[2-(phenylsulfanylmethyl)phenyl]-5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole, especially on the MDA-MB-231 cell line motivates future studies to improve the anticancer profile and to reduce the toxicological risks. It is worth noting that 3e produced a low toxic effect in the D. magna 24 h assay and the predictive studies on rat acute toxicity suggest a low degree of toxic risks.

Bioisosteric replacement of central 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring of high affinity CB2 ligands by regioisomeric 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring.

Project description:It has been reported that bioisosteric replacement of an 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring by an 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring leads to higher polarity, reduced metabolic degradation by human liver microsomes and reduced interaction with hERG channels. In a seven to eight step synthesis 1,3,4-oxadiazles 9a-c were synthesized as bioisosteric analogs of high-affinity but rather lipophilic CB2 ligands 1a-c containing an 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives 9a and 9b show 10- and 50-fold reduced CB2 affinity compared to the 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives 1a and 1b, respectively. However, the 1,3,4-oxadiazole 9a has high CB2 affinity (Ki = 25 nM) and high selectivity over the CB1 receptor.
