A series of novel 2-(3-substituted propyl)-3-(2-methyl phenyl) quinazolin-4-(3H)-ones were synthesized by the reaction of 2-(3-bromopropyl thio)-3-(2-methyl phenyl) quinazolin-4-(3H)-one with various amines. The starting material, 2-(3-bromopropyl thio)-3-(2-methyl phenyl) quinazolin-4-(3H)-one was synthesized from 2-methyl aniline. When tested for their in vivo H(1)-antihistaminic activity on conscious guinea pigs, all the test compounds protected the animals from histamine induced bronchospasm significantly. Compound 2-(3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl) propylthio)-3-(2-methyl phenyl) quinazolin-4(3H)-one (OT5) emerged as the most active compound (71.70% protection) of the series when compared to the reference standard chlorpheniramine maleate (70.09% protection). Compound OT5 shows negligible sedation (7%) compared to chlorpheniramine maleate (33%). Therefore, compound OT5 can serve as the leading molecule for further development into a new class of H(1)-antihistaminic agents.

Background: Trichomoniasis and amoebiasis are neglected diseases and still remain as a global health burden not only for developing countries, from where are endemic, but also for the developed world. Previously, we tested the antiparasitic activity of a number of imidazo[1,2-]pyridine derivatives (IMPYs) on metronidazole-resistant strains of (HM1:IMSS), and (GT3). Their anti-inflammatory activity was also evaluated.

We report a short synthetic route for synthesizing 2,3-substituted piperazine acetic acid esters. Optically pure amino acids were efficiently converted into 1,2-diamines that could be utilized to deliver the title 2,3-substituted piperazines in five steps with a high enantiomeric purity. The novel route facilitated, for the first time, the synthesis of 3-phenyl substituted-2-piperazine acetic acid esters that were difficult to achieve using other methods; however, in this case, the products underwent racemization.

A novel synthesis of 2,3-substituted benzothiophenes is reported, involving a tandem base-mediated condensation of -iodoarylacetonitriles/acetates/ketones with (hetero)aryldithioesters and an intramolecular C-S bond formation. The reaction affords diversely substituted benzothiophenes and heterofused thiophenes in excellent yields.
