Research on synthetic methods for the preparation of oxazoles is an important issue among synthetic chemists because oxazole derivatives are structural subunits of various natural active products and are valuable synthetic and pharmaceutical precursors. In this research work, we constructed CuBr supported on surface of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles modified with 6-(aminomethyl)nicotinic acid [Fe3O4@AMNA-CuBr nanocomposite] and evaluated its catalytic activity for the preparation of highly substituted oxazoles through one-pot three-component reactions of diphenylacetylene derivatives with aryl nitriles and water in PEG as the solvent. The results shown that the Fe3O4@AMNA-CuBr catalyst was used 8 times without significant decrease in catalytic activity. XRD and TEM analysis confirmed that the structure and morphology that the Fe3O4@AMNA-CuBr catalyst did not change after 8 runs.

The compound 1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1) was utilized as a fundamental component in the synthesis of novel N-phenyl pyrazole derivatives. Substituted N-phenyl pyrazole compounds including 2-cyano-3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-N-Substituted-acrylamide derivatives (4a–h), 4-(hydrazineylidenemethyl)-1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole (6) and 2-cyano-N'-((1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene)-acetohydrazide (11) were obtained in moderate yields through the reaction of 1 with 2-cyano-N-substituted acetamide derivatives 3a–h, hydrazine hydrate, and cyanoacetohydrazide under basic-catalyzed conditions, respectively. Moreover, hydrazinyl-pyarzole 6 reacted with 4,5,6,7-tetrabromoisobenzofuran-1,3-dione (7) to afford 4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-2-(((1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene)amino)- isoindoline-1,3-dione (8). Furthermore, pyrazoloacetohydrazide 11 is condensed with salicylaldehyde derivatives 12a–e to give pyrazolochromene carbohydrazide derivatives 13a–e. Also, acetohydrazide 11 refluxed with N, N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal to produce 2-cyano-3-(dimethylamino)-N'-((1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene)acrylohydrazide (15), which upon exposure to acidic conditions underwent cyclization to form 4-((dimethylamino)methylene)-6-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyridazine-3,5(4H,6H)-dione (16). The newly synthesized compounds were identified and confirmed using elemental and spectral data analyses as IR, MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and 2D NMR analysis (H-H COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOSEY), Also, DFT studies were done to prove the geometrical optimization and spatial distributions orbitals of compounds 4a and 11. The toxicity of N-phenylpyrazole compounds was tested against the corn leaf aphid (Rhopalosiphum maidis) and the mealy plum aphid (Hyalopterus pruni). Compounds 4c, 13c, and 13d were found to be the most potent to control the two insects compared with acetamiprid 20% SP recommended by the Ministry of Agriculture. The biochemical investigation of insects was studied to the most effective compounds on insects as well, and the toxicity of compounds 4c, 13c, and 13d was studied on the predators (Hippodamia variegata, Cydonia vicina isis, Cydonia vicina nilotica, and 4th instar larvae H. variegata) under laboratory conditions.

An efficient, facile, and catalyst-free one-pot multicomponent green strategy under neat or aqueous conditions has been developed to synthesize a series of spiro compounds that contain two biologically active pharmacophores, benzochromenes/thio-chromenes and indan-1,3-dione, in a single molecular framework. The desired Spiroindene-1,3dione-benzochromene/thio-chromene derivatives were yielded through a one-pot, three-component reaction between ninhydrin, substituted 1,3-dicarbonyls, and 2-naphthol/2-naphthalene thiol via the Knoevenagel–Michael cascade. The advances of this strategy include high product yields (94–82%), the formation of a new asymmetric center, cost-effectiveness, atom economy, and a straightforward workup procedure that does not require any additional purification steps.

A series of benzoquinoline-based heterocycles was synthesized using 2-((3-chlorobenzo[f]quinolin-2-yl)methylene)hydrazine-1-carbothioamide as a key material via condensation of 3-chlorobenzo[f]quinoline-2-carbaldehyde with thiosemicarbazide. The titled thiosemicarbazone scaffold was conducted with some carbon electrophilic reagents such as acetic anhydride, chloroacetyl chloride, chloroacetic acid, 2-bromo-1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one, 2-chloro-N-phenylacetamide, and dimethyl but-2-ynedioate to obtain triazole thione, imidazolone, thiazolidinone, and thiazole derivatives. On the other hand, hydrazinolysis of thiosemicarbazone did not proceed as expected but it gave the azine derivative. The in vitro antitumor and antioxidant activity of the synthesized compounds were screened and revealed that triazole thione and thiazole derivatives were the most potent.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death. Quinoline is well known as one of the most potent pharmaceutically active scaffolds with remarkable pharmacological properties. So, in this article, we focused our efforts on the utility of the key scaffold N′-(1-(4-((7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)amino)phenyl)ethylidene)-2-cyanoacetohydrazide (5) in the synthesis of their novel heterocyclic compounds with potential as anticancer agents. Based on these preliminary screening results against four different human cancer cell lines (HepG2, MCF-7, HCT-116, and PC-3). Gratifyingly, compounds 9 and 16 showed the highest anticancer activity. Adenosine A2B receptor (A2BAR) was found to be the probable cellular target for both promising candidate compounds 9 and 16. The docking study of tested compounds 9 and 16 revealed that they bind more strongly to the A2BAR as compared to that of its co-crystalized ligand, suggesting that the anticancer activities of the tested compounds may be related to their ability to block the A2BAR receptor signaling in cancer cells, leading to cell death. Computational studies and countersurfaces of the novel compounds helped us clarify and interpret the compounds that have high and low anticancer activity. Noteworthy, the results of these studies are approximately compatible with what was done in vitro.

The present study deals with the application of ab initio method using density functional theory (DFT) at M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) to characterize the considered molecule completely. Though the anti-bacterial activity of the 3-(amino thiazolyl)quinolone derivatives was studied, the effects of intermolecular hydrogen bonding on chemical and biological processes remain unexplored or have not been thoroughly investigated so far. Investigations into non-covalent interactions were carried out using the reduced density gradient methodology and the quantum theory of atoms in molecules. An electron localization function was used to investigate the electronic vicinity of each atom in a molecule. Natural bond orbital analysis was used to determine the correlated stabilization energies for the intermolecular hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) that are responsible for the molecular stability of the dimer structure. The electrophilic and nucleophilic sites were predicted using the molecular electrostatic potential. The density of states and partial density of states were also used to represent the frontier molecular orbitals. The inhibitory activities of the compound with different classes of bacteria were also investigated using molecular docking simulation.
本研究采用 M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p)密度泛函理论 (DFT) 的 ab initio 方法,对所研究的分子进行了全面的表征。虽然对 3-(氨基噻唑基)喹诺酮衍生物的抗菌活性进行了研究,但分子间氢键对化学和生物过程的影响仍有待探索,或者说迄今为止尚未进行深入研究。对非共价相互作用的研究采用了还原密度梯度法和分子中原子的量子理论。利用电子定位功能研究了分子中每个原子的电子邻域。自然键轨道分析用于确定分子间氢键(H 键)的相关稳定能量,这些氢键是二聚体结构分子稳定性的原因。利用分子静电位预测了亲电和亲核位点。此外,还使用了状态密度和部分状态密度来表示前沿分子轨道。此外,还利用分子对接模拟研究了该化合物对不同种类细菌的抑制活性。

The principle approach of the present study is directed to find an appropriate technique to create a new category of multi-fused compounds including furo[3,2-g]chromenes. The novel 2-acetyl-3-amino-6,10-dimethoxy-4-oxo-4H-difuro[3,2-c:3′,2′-g]chromene (3) was efficiently synthesized and utilized as a key intermediate to build a new class of multi-fused compounds namely furo[3′′,2′′:6′,7′]chromeno[3′,4′:4,5]furo[3,2-b]pyridines. Reaction of precursor 3 with active methylene nitriles yielded 2-amino-3-substituted furo[3′′,2′′:6′,7′]chromeno[3′,4′:4,5]furo[3,2-b]pyridines 4–9. Also, Friedländer's reaction of precursor 3 with active methylene ketones produced hetero-annulated furochromenofuropyridines 10–13. The synthesized compounds showed high inhibition action when tested in vitro against fungal strains, whereas compounds 3 and 8 showed good inhibitory effects against all types of tested microorganisms. The structures of the novel annulated compounds were inferred using spectral and analytical results.
