Synthesis of novel spiro-pyrazole and spiro-isoxazoline derivatives of 9α- and 9β-hydroxyparthenolide

Synthesis, characterization, X-ray, α-glucosidase inhibition and molecular docking study of new triazolic systems based on 1,5-benzodiazepine via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions

We report in this work a synthesis of novel triazolo[1,5]benzodiazepine derivatives by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of N-aryl-C-ethoxycarbonylnitrilimines with 1,5-benzodiazepines. All the structures of the new compounds were determined from their NMR (1H and 13C) and HRMS. Then, X-ray crystallography analysis of compound 4d confirmed the stereochemistry of cycloadducts. The compounds 1, 4a-d, 5a-d, 6c, 7 and 8 were evaluated for their in vitro anti-diabetic activity against α-glucosidase. The compounds 1, 4d, 5a and 5b showed potential inhibitory activities compared to standard acarbose. Additionally, an in silico docking study was conducted to look into the active binding mode of the synthesized compounds within the target enzyme.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract:

Spiropyrazoles display many biological biological activities such as antitumor, vasodilation, analgesic, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, aldosterone antagonistic, anabolic, androgenic, anti-inflammatory, progestational and salt-retaining activities and they also exert neuroprotection in dopaminergic cell death. Many efforts have been made to obtain these derivatives with high yield and excellent regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Most of the spiroprazole synthesis methods were proceeded in good to excellent yield in the presence of organic catalysts as for examples squaramide, NHC pre-catalyst, pyrrole derivatives, bis-oxazoline, DMAP, DABCO, thiourea derivatives, DBU, acetic acid and quinoline catalysts. In addition, the inorganic and organo-metallic catalysts have been proven their efficiency in synthesis of various types of spiro-pyrazoles in excellent yield. Thus, in this review we have compiled all citations for the synthesis of spiropyrazoles in the presence of various types of catalysts such as organic, inorganic, and metalorganic catalysts in the range 2020 to 2012. This review article is a useful compilation for researchers interested in the synthesis of spiropyrazole derivatives and will assist them in selecting appropriate catalysts for preparation of their spiropyrazoles.
