A novel series of substituted 2-thiohydantoin incorporated with benzoimidazole, pyrazole, triazole and/or benzoxazole moieties has been synthesized using (E)-3-[1-(4-bromophenyl)ethylideneamino]-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one 1 as the key starting material. The key material 1 also, reacted with an acetic anhydride, aromatic aldehydes, secondary amines, formaldehyde and triethyl orthoformate to give the corresponding acetyl, chalcone, Mannich bases and ethoxymethylene derivatives, respectively. The structures of the novel compounds were confirmed by spectral data and elemental analysis. The cytotoxic activity of all synthesized compounds was assessed in vitro against human hepatocellular cancer cell line (HePG-2) and breast carcinoma cell line (MCF-7). The bioassay results revealed that compound 14 has the best activity against HePG-2 cell line (IC = 2.33 μg/mL), while compound 5 has the best activity against MCF-7 cell line (IC = 3.98 μg/mL).

Brønsted Acid-Catalyzed Regioselective Coupling between Azoles and Arylcyclobutenes.

Chem Asian J

January 2025

Northwest University, Key Laboratory of Synthetic and Natural Functional Molecule Chemistry of Ministry of Education, Department of Chemistry & Materials Science,, 1 Xuefu Ave., Guodu Education and Hi-Tech Industries Zone,, Chang'an District, 710127, Xi'an, CHINA.

Herein, we describe a protocol for Brønsted acid-catalyzed regioselective coupling of azoles such as pyrazoles, 1,2,3-triazole, 1,3,4-triazole, benzotriazole, indazole and tetrazole, to cyclobutenes. These azoles could be directly coupled with various arylcyclobutenes with high site-selectivity, offering a distinct entry to more functionalized cyclobutanes. The usage of inexpensive TsOH•H2O catalyst, broad substrate scope, and open-air conditions make this protocol practically viable.

Hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) materials are typically formed by the self-assembly of small organic units (synthons) with specific functional groups through hydrogen bonding or other interactions. HOF is commonly used as an electrolyte for batteries. Well-designed HOF materials can enhance the proton exchange rate, thereby boosting battery performance.

Even though α-arylation of ketones is attractive for direct C-H functionalization of organic substrates, the method largely relies on phosphine-ligated palladium complexes. Only recently, efforts have focused on developing nitrogen-based ligands as a more sustainable alternative to phosphines, with pyridine-functionalized pyridinium amidate (pyr-PYA) ,'-bidentate ligands displaying good selectivity and activity. Here, we report on a second generation set of catalyst precursors that feature a 5-membered N-heterocycle instead of a pyridine as chelating unit of the PYA ligand to provide less steric congestion for the rate-limiting transmetalation of the enolate.

Department of Pharmaceutics, College of Pharmacy, Jazan University, Saudi Arabia.

Nitrogen-based organic heterocyclic compounds are an important source of therapeutic agents. About 75% of drugs approved by the FDA and currently available in the market are N-heterocyclic organic compounds. The N-heterocyclic organic compounds like pyridine, indole, triazoles, triazine, imidazoles, benzimidazoles, quinazolines, pyrazoles, quinolines, pyrimidines, porphyrin, etc.

Background: Recently, pyrido[2,3-] pyrimidine, triazolopyrimidine, thiazolopyrimidine, quinoline, and pyrazole derivatives have gained attention due to their diverse biological activities, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitubercular, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral effects.

Objective: The synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds including 5-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-] pyrimidinone (-, , -), 6-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidinone (, , -), 1,2,4-triazole-6-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidinone (-), and pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidine-ethyl-(pyridine)-9-thiaazabenzo[]azulenone () derivatives was performed with high yields while evaluating antimicrobial activities.

Methods: A new series of quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidine derivatives were prepared using a modern style and advanced technology, resulting in high yields of these new compounds.
