Studies on synthesis of novel pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives, evaluation of their antimicrobial activity and molecular docking.

A series of novel pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives 6 were prepared starting from 2-amino-3-cyano-4-trifluoromethyl-6-phenyl pyridine 3 via Grignard's reaction, cyclization followed by coupling with aliphatic and cyclic amines.

A series of novel 1,2,3-triazole/isoxazole functionalized pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives 6a-c, 7a-h and 8a-e were prepared in series of synthetic steps. All the compounds screened for the anticancer activity against four human cancer cell lines using Nocodazole as standard. Compounds 7d and 7h showed highest activity against PANC-1 (pancreatic cancer) and A549 (lung cancer) cell lines respectively and more than standard.

Synthesis of Novel Pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide Derivatives and Their Anticancer Activity.

A series of novel pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide derivatives 6a-n were prepared starting from 2(1H) pyridone 1 via hydrolysis, de-carboxylation, selective O-alkylation followed by rearrangement to give pyridine-2-amine 3. Compound 3 on reaction with ethoxy methylene malonic diethyl ester (EMME) under a conventional method followed by cyclization under micro wave irradiation (MWI) conditions resulted in product 5. Compound 5 on coupling with diverse substituted aliphatic amines formed title compounds 6a-n.

Synthesis of novel amide functionalized 2H-chromene derivatives by Ritter amidation of primary alcohol using HBF4·OEt2 as a mild and versatile reagent and evaluation of their antimicrobial and anti-biofilm activities.

A series of novel amide functionalized 2H-chromene derivatives 3 were prepared starting from ethyl-2-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate 1 via sodium borohydride reduction followed by Ritter amidation using HBF4·OEt2 as a mild and versatile reagent. All the products 3 were screened for antimicrobial activity against various Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and fungal strain. The promising derivatives such as 3f, 3g, 3k, 3l, 3m, 3n and 3o were further screened for minimum bactericidal concentration and bio-film inhibition activity and identified the potential ones.
