Pyrazole derivatives (3 and 4) containing thiazole moiety were synthesized via cyclization of pyrazole derivative (2) with bromomethyl arylketones, to give compound 3, followed by acetylation. N- (3- methoxy-2-hydroxybenzal) -3- (p -chlorophenyl)-4- cyano-5-oxopyrazol-1-thiocarboxamide (6) was synthesized via reaction of compound 2 with 3-methoxy-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Structures of all compounds were confirmed by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and mass spectrometry. The cytotoxic activity of all the synthetic compounds were evaluated against Leukemia HL-60 compared with Doxorubicicn. The cytotoxic activity was checked in vitro for the recently prepared compounds by using the MTT assay. Compounds 4, 6 and 9 were the most active against Leukemia HL-60. The IC50 values of them were less than 5 µM in the range of 1.35-4.78 µM. In addition, compounds 3 and 5 showed less antiproliferative activity against Leukemia HL-60 cells with IC50 values in the range 5.39-8.82 µM. Compound 6 was the most potent cytotoxic activity. The studies biological activity includes cell cycle analysis, apoptosis detection assay and Topoisomerase II inhibition activity assay explained that compound 6 is a strong Topo II inhibitor.","PeriodicalId":7715,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry","volume":"128 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87982546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The targeted compounds were obtained in yields ranging from 44% to 67%, by reacting bis(2-aminophenyl) ditelluride with acyl- and aryl isothiocyanates, respectively, and subsequent reductive cyclization of the resulting thiourea derivatives. Seven novel 1,3-benzotellurazole derivatives were prepared: 2-benzoylamino-1,3-benzotellurazole, 2-(4-chlorobenzoylamino)-1,3-benzotellurazole, 2-(2-bromobenzoylamino)-1,3-benzotellurazole, 2-(4-bromobenzoylamino)-1,3-benzotellurazole, 2-(4-methoxybenzoylamino)-1,3-benzotellurazole, 2-phenylamino-1,3-benzotellurazole, and 2-(4-chlorophenylamino-1,3-benzotellurazole. A simplified protocol was employed to synthesize all acyl isothiocyanates needed for their preparation from benzoyl halide derivatives and potassium thiocyanate. The reductive cyclization of the intermediate thioureas was challenging, only the use of hydroxymethanesulfinate in the presence of elemental mercury provided synthetically useful product yields. A mechanism was proposed, consisting of the insertion of mercury into the Te-Te bond, followed by intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the thiocarbonyl moiety by the resulting insertion product. All 2-acylamino-1,3-benzotellurazoles are crystalline solids, which are stable to ambient light, air and moderate heat. A characterization of selected samples by X-ray crystallography indicated that they form dimers in solid state, resulting from hydrogen bonding between the exocyclic and endocyclic nitrogen atoms of two adjacent molecules. This sets them apart from 2-alkyl- and 2-aryl-1,3-benzotellurazoles, which are known to self-assemble into supramolecular wires.","PeriodicalId":7715,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80024663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the structure, the planar [r.m.s deviation = 0.014 A] chromen-2-one ring and the 7-propionate side chain are inclined to one another at an acute angle of 65.34(9)°. The molecules form R44 (30) tetrameric units via C—H···O interactions which extend into layers approximately parallel to the ab plane. Furthermore, the crystal structure is supported by π–π stacking interactions between neighbouring benzene and pyrone or coumarin rings [centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.6097(8)–3.6475(9)A], as well as C–H···π interactions [H···centroid distances in the range 2.95–3.00A]. The molecular geometry of (I) was also optimized using density functional theory (DFT/RB3LYP), RMP2 and RHF methods with the 6-311++G(d, p) basis set in ground state. The theoretical data resulting from these quantum chemical calculations are in good agreement with the observed structure, although the observed C—O—C—C torsion angle between the coumarin ring system and the 7-propionate side chain (121.49 (16)°) is somewhat lower than the DFT/RB3LYP calculated value (132.32°) and larger than the RMP2 (114.65°) and the RHF (69.19°) values.

Metal ions play many critical functions in humans. Deficiency of some metal ions can lead to disease like pernicious anemia, growth retardation, heart disease in infants etc. In this sense there is a strong need to synthesis new substances that not only have good spectrum of activity, but having new mechanisms of action. Inorganic compounds particularly Mn metal complexes have played an important role in the development of new metal based drugs. Over the past few years, there have been many reports on their applications in homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The activity is usually increased by complexation therefore to understand the properties of both ligands and metal can lead to the synthesis of highly active compounds. The influence of certain metals on the biological activity of these compounds and their intrinsic chemical interest as multidentate ligands has prompted a considerable increase in the study of their coordination behavior. Development of a new chemotherapeutic Schiff bases and their metal complexes is now attracting the attention of medicinal chemists. In this review we have focused on research of Mn complexes incorporation of Schiff bases carry out over the past few decades which has sought to possess preclinical pharmacological screenings like anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-tuberculosis, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, DNA- interaction and anti-tumor action of synthetic metal complexes.","PeriodicalId":7715,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90598123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It would not be out of place to mention that, in comparison to isocyanates (-N=C=O), their Sulphur analogues, isothiocyanates (-N=C=S), are less unpleasant and to some extent less hazardous. The use of isocyanates is drastically limited by the researchers [6] after December 3, 1984 which is the date of Bhopal Disaster held in Union carbide factory, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh (India) due to the leakage of Methyl isocyanate (MIC) where thousands of people were died due to the toxic effect of MIC (Me-N=C=O). In the present study, a mixture of Phenyl isothiocyanate (2) and monocarboxylic acid (1), in the ratio of 1:1 and Phenyl isothiocyanate (2) and dicarboxylic acid (4) in the ratio of 2:1are taken for condensation reaction by heating at 160°-170°C for 15 minutesunder solvent free condition. Pyridine was used as a catalyst/ base in both the cases. The products obtained were monoanilides (3) and dianilides (5) of mono- and dicarboxylic acids respectively which were recrystallized from aqueous ethanol. Dicarboxylic acids gave unexpected results in some of the cases. For example, Phthalic acid produces N-phenylphthalimide irrespective of the molar ratio of the acid and Phenyl isothiocyanate whereas maleic acid produces neither mono- nor dianilides with Phenyl isothiocyanate under the present condition. A proper systematic investigation was carried out towards the condensation of Phenyl isothiocyanate with mono- and dicarboxylic acids.","PeriodicalId":7715,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84186264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
