Published: February 2020

In this paper, a series of new substituted-5-pyrazolones were first synthesized, then formulated by the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction to obtain substituted-4-carbaldehyde-5-pyrazolones. In the final step, when urea was reacted with formulated pyrazolones, we found that, instead of the C=N bond in azomethine form, the compounds tautomerized to form a series of novel pyrazole-4-ylidenemethylurea structures. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by FTIR, H, C NMR, LC-MS/MS, and elemental analysis methods. The cytotoxic and antioxidant effects of substituted 5-pyrazolones and their pyrazolone-urea derivatives were investigated in metastatic A431 and noncancerous HaCaT human keratinocytes by a mitochondrial activity test. The effects of the compounds on the migration of cancerous and noncancerous cell lines were investigated by using a cell scratch assay. The General Linear Model, Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS v26) was used to determine if there was a statistically significant difference between the control and the treatment groups. Four of the nine compounds showed an antioxidant effect. All 5-pyrazolone-urea compounds showed higher toxicity ( < 0.05) in cancerous A431 cells compared to noncancerous cells at all time points. All compounds also showed a biphasic hormetic effect. Four of the nine compounds inhibited cell migration.

Enantioselective Amination of 4-Substituted Pyrazolones Catalyzed by Oxindole-Containing Thioureas and by a Recyclable Linear-Polymer-Supported Analogue in a Continuous Flow Process.

A highly efficient organocatalytic amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones with azodicarboxylates mediated by a novel quinine-derived thiourea with a 3,3-diaryl-oxindole scaffold is reported. This synthetic method furnished 4-amino-5-pyrazolones in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97:3 er) at room temperature in short reaction times. Moreover, a linear-polymer-supported bifunctional thiourea, synthesized by reacting a bifunctional aromatic monomer (biphenyl) with isatin in superacidic media and further derivatization, was proven to be also an efficient heterogeneous organocatalyst for this α-amination reaction.

Asymmetric α-amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones catalyzed by a chiral Gd(OTf)3/N,N'-dioxide complex: highly enantioselective synthesis of 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives.

The asymmetric α-amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones with azodicarboxylates was investigated for the first time, employing an N,N'-dioxide gadolinium(III) complex as the catalyst. The novel transformations exhibited high yield, and 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives bearing a chiral quaternary center were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (90%-97% ee) for a broad scope of 5-pyrazolones by using 1 mol % or only 0.05 mol % of catalyst.

Mesoionic 4-trifluoroacetyl-1,3-oxazolium-5-olates 1 were easily prepared by the cyclodehydration reaction of N-acyl-N-alkyl-alpha-amino acids with trifluoroacetic anhydride. Due to the presence of the trifluoromethyl ketone and the mesoionic five-membered oxazole, there are three reaction sites to be attacked by the nucleophiles at C-2, C-5 and the trifluoroacetyl group in 1. Based on this model, three modes of regioselective attack by phenylhydrazine were found to provide three different products, i.

Novel 4-acyl-5-pyrazolones having aza-15-crown-5 (HPMP-A15C5) and aza-18-crown-6 (HPMP-A18C6) moieties as an intramolecular synergist have been synthesized by simple coupling reactions between 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-chloroacetyl-5-pyrazolone and the corresponding azacrown ethers. The solvent extraction of the divalent metal ions (Mn(2+), Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Cd(2+) and Pb(2+)) were examined. Synergistic extractions with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone (HPMBP) and benzocrown ethers were also examined for a comparison.
