Unexpected synthesis of 4-(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ylsulfanyl)butyl-H-sulfite as a catalyst for the synthesis of pyrazolophthalazines

Several attempts for preparation of 4,4'-(2-thioxoimidazolidine-1,3-diyl)bis(butane-1-sulfonic acid) were not successful despite taking 2 mmol of 1,4-butane sultone in reaction with 1 mmol of imidazolidine-2-thione. Instead, 4-(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ylsulfanyl)butyl hydrogen sulfite (DISBHS) was prepared unexpectedly, characterized and used for the synthesis of diverse pyrazolophthalazines from the one-pot three component condensation reaction of phthalhydrazide, malononitrile and aldehydes under mild conditions.

Superparamagnetic Polyaniline-co-m-phenylenediamine@Fe3O4 Nanocomposite as an Efficient Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo [1,2- a]pyridazine-5,8-diones & 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-5, 10-diones" Instead of 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b] Phthalazinedione Derivatives

BACKGROUND

The use of polymer-based catalysts has increased because of their high potential application as an effective catalyst in organic reactions. They have benefits such as high efficiency and reactivity, simple separation, and safety compared to other heterogeneous catalysts.

AIM AND OBJECTIVE

The objective of the current research is to prepare solid polymer-based catalysts, poly(aniline-co- m-phenylenediamine) (PAmPDA), and its superparamagnetic nanocomposite. Then, the catalytic activity of the resulting superparamagnetic nanocomposite was investigated in the synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phetalazine-5,10-diones and 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-a]pyridazine-5,8-dione derivatives. A series of some 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phetalazine-5,10-diones and 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-a]pyridazine-5,8-dione derivatives was tested for its antibacterial properties against the Staphylococcus aureus and E.coli bacteria.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

PAmPDA copolymer was synthesized in a 1:2 molar ratio of Ani to mPDA via radical oxidative polymerization at room temperature. Superparamagnetic PAmPDA@Fe3O4 nanocomposite was synthesized from a mixture of Fe(II), Fe(III) solution, and PAmPDA copolymer via the in-situ co-precipitation technique. 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phetalazine-5,10-diones were synthesized via one-pot three-component condensation reaction of Phthalhydrazide, aromatic aldehyde derivatives, and malononitrile in the presence of PAmPDA under solvent-free conditions at 80 °C. The synthesis of 1Hpyrazolo[1,2-a]pyridazine-5,8-dione derivatives was carried out via a one-pot three-component condensation reaction of maleic hydrazide, aromatic aldehyde derivatives, and malononitrile in the presence of PAmPDA under reflux conditions at EtOH/H2O 1:1. The antibacterial activity of some derivatives was tested against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

RESULTS

First, superparamagnetic PAmPDA@Fe3O4 nanocomposite was synthesized and characterized successfully, and then the resulting nanocatalyst was used for the synthesis of pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine and pyrazolo[1,2-a]pyridazine. We obtained the maximum yield of the desired 1H-pyrazolo[1,2- b]phthalazine-5,10 dione derivatives with 0.05 g of catalyst at 80°C, under solvent free conditions, whereby the reaction was complete within 30 min. A wide range of 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-5,10 dione derivatives were synthesized in good to excellent yield. On the other hand, pyrazolo[1,2- a]pyridazine derivative was synthesized successfully in high yield using PAmPDA as a nanocatalyst. The antibacterial activity of some derivatives, according to the data (inhibition zone%), showed good activity against Staphylococcus aureus and E.coli.

CONCLUSION

In this research, PAmPDA was used for mild preparation of 1H-pyrazolo [1,2-a]pyridazine5,8-diones & 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phetalazine-5,10-diones derivatives with excellent yields and short reaction times. The attractive features of this protocol are simple procedure, cleaner reaction, and the use of recyclable nanocatalyst. Satisfactory yields of products and easy workup make this a useful protocol for the green synthesis of this class of compounds. The antibacterial activity of some derivatives, according to the data (inhibition zone%), showed good activity against Staphylococcus aureus and E.coli.

Lipase-mediated multicomponent synthesis of 1H-Pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-5,10-dione derivatives in a binary solvent medium

A new method for the synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-5,10-dione derivatives via lipase from the Aspergillus niger-catalyzed multicomponent reaction of aldehydes, malononitrile, and phthalhydrazide is reported herein for the first time. This novel method holds several advantages, including its efficiency, environmental friendliness, simple workup procedure, and good yield (70-86%). The effects of temperature, organic solvents, and water content were investigated. This protocol has the potential to replace traditional chemical synthesis routes for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds.

A New Supported Manganese-Based Coordination Complex as a Nano-Catalyst for the Synthesis of Indazolophthalazinetriones and Investigation of Its Antibacterial Activity

A new magnetic supported manganese-based coordination complex (Fe3O4@SiO2@CPTMS@MBOL@ Mn) was prepared in consecutive stages and characterized via various techniques (VSM, SEM, TEM, XRD, FT-IR, EDX, TG-DTA, and ICP). To evaluate its application, it was used for synthesis of divers Indazolophthalazinetriones in a simple procedure via the one-pot three-component condensation reaction of aldehydes, dimedone, and phthalhydrazide in ethanol under reflux conditions. The Mn catalyst can be recycled without any noticeable loss in catalytic activity. Additionally, the antibacterial properties of the nano-catalyst were studied against some bacterial strains.

Amino- and polyaminophthalazin-1(2H)-ones: synthesis, coordination properties, and biological activity

Amino- and polyaminophthalazinones were synthesized by the palladium‐catalyzed amination (alkyl- and arylamines, polyamines) of 4-bromophthalazinones in good yields. The coordinating properties of selected aminophthalazinones towards Cu(II) ions were investigated and the participation of the nitrogen atoms in the complexation of the metal ion was shown. A biological screening of the potential cytotoxicity of selected synthesized compounds on HT-29 and PC-3 cell lines, as well as on the L-929 cell line, proved that some amino derivatives of phthalazinone show interesting anticancer activities. The detailed synthesis, spectroscopic data, and biological assays are reported.

In vitro and in silico lipoxygenase inhibition studies and antimicrobial activity of pyrazolyl-phthalazine-diones

The series of pyrazolyl-phthalazine-dione derivatives (PPDs) was subjected to evaluation of their in vitro lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibition and antimicrobial activities. Results obtained for LOX inhibition activities of PPDs showed that all compounds exhibit good to excellent activity, whereby compounds with eudesmic, syringic, vanillic or toluic moiety are the most active. Molecular modelling study was performed to investigate the possible mechanism of action and binding mode of compounds within the LOX active site. Docking results revealed that activity of the examined compounds depends on the functional group ability to create hydrogen bond accepting (HBA) and hydrophobic features (Hy) in the LOX-Ib active site. In addition, all substances were tested for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. The investigated compounds showed better antifungal than antibacterial activity. The highest antifungal activity was on Aspergillus fumigatus ATTC 204305 and Trichoderma viridae ATCC 13233.

The synthesis of 1H-indazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-1,6,11(13H)-trione derivatives, using one-pot three-component condensation reaction of 3-nitrophthalic anhydride, hydrazine monohydrate, dimedone, and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of ZrO(NO3)2.2H2O as the novel catalyst and in reflux conditions in EtOH was reported. Quantum theoretical calculations for three structures of compounds (5a, 5b, and 5c) were performed using the Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT). From the optimized structure, geometric parameters were obtained and experimental measurements were compared with the calculated data. The structures of the products were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectra, and elemental analyses. The IR spectra data and 1H NMR and 13C NMR chemical shift computations of the 1H-indazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-1,6,11(13H)-trione derivatives in the ground state were calculated. Frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), total density of states (DOS), thermodynamic parameters, and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of the title compounds were investigated by theoretical calculations. Molecular properties such as the ionization potential (I), electron affinity (A), chemical hardness (η), electronic chemical potential (µ), and electrophilicity (ω) were investigated for the structures. Thus, there was an excellent agreement between experimental and theoretical results.

Ruthenium Catalyzed C-H Acylmethylation of N-Arylphthalazine-1,4-diones with α-Carbonyl Sulfoxonium Ylides: Highway to Diversely Functionalized Phthalazino-fused Cinnolines

A direct ortho-Csp² -H acylmethylation of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-diones with α-carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides is achieved through a Ru^II -catalyzed C-H bond activation process. The protocol featured high functional group tolerance on the two substrates, including aryl-, heteroaryl-, and alkyl-substituted α-carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides. Thereafter, 2-(ortho-acylmethylaryl)-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-diones were used as potential starting materials for the expeditious synthesis of 6-arylphthalazino[2,3-a]cinnoline-8,13-diones and 5-acyl-5,6-dihydrophthalazino[2,3-a]cinnoline-8,13-diones under Lawesson's reagent and BF₃ ⋅OEt₂ mediated conditions, respectively. Of these, the BF₃ ⋅OEt₂ -mediated cyclization proceeded in DMSO as a solvent and a methylene source via dual C-C and C-N bond formations.

Cu@Fe₃O₄ MNPs as novel nanomagnetic reagents were prepared to investigate their catalytic behavior in the preparation of tetrahydrobenzimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1(2H)-ones, as important biologically active compounds. Then, characterization of the synthesized nanoparticles was performed using different methods including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). All reactions were performed with small amounts of the Cu@Fe₃O₄ MNPs under solvent-free conditions. After completion of the reaction, because of the magnetic nature of the nanocatalyst, they could be simply separated with an external magnet and easily reused with no considerable decrease in the catalytic behavior even after seven runs.
