New Quinazolin-4(3H)-One Derivatives Incorporating Isoxazole Moiety as Antioxidant Agents: Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Theoretical DFT Mechanistic Study.

: This research centers on the development and spectroscopic characterization of new quinazolin-4(3H)-one-isoxazole derivatives (). The aim was to investigate the regioselectivity of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition involving arylnitriloxides and N-propargylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, and to assess the antioxidant properties of the synthesized compounds. The synthetic approach started with the alkylation of quinazolin-4(3H)-one using propargyl bromide, followed by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction.

Chromone-isoxazole hybrids molecules: synthesis, spectroscopic, MEDT, ELF, antibacterial, ADME-Tox, molecular docking and MD simulation investigations.

A mechanistic study was performed within the molecular electron density theory at the B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) computational level to explain the regioselectivity observed. An electron localization function analysis was also performed, and the results confirm the zwitterionic-type (zw-type) mechanism of the cycloaddition reactions between nitrile oxide and alkylated 4-chromene-2-carboxylate derivatives and shed more light on the obtained regioselectivity experimentally. studies on the pharmacokinetics, ADME and toxicity tests of the compounds were also performed, and it was projected that compounds , , and are pharmacokinetic and have favorable ADME profiles.
