Tetrahydropyrimidinones/thiones stabilized by trifluoromethyl-containing β-diketones

A library of new hydropyrimidinone/thione compounds was synthesized via the classical Biginelli reaction using hydrated cerium(III) chloride as the catalyst. The presence of a trifluoromethyl or methyl group in the diketone starting material has been established to selectively control the outcome of the Biginelli reaction where one of the two possible pyrimidinone/thione compounds is formed. The results showed that the electronic effects of substituents of the diketone directly affect the product formation. The synthesized compounds were fully characterized using 1H, 13C, and two dimensional NMR (2D NMR) spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffractometry, FT-IR, and ESI-HDMS techniques. We also report on the uncommon one-bond correlations which were observed in the HMBC spectra and the interesting long-range heteronuclear coupling of fluorine to hydrogen and carbon.

Configurational assignments in trifluoromethylvinyl compounds using through-space carbon-fluorine coupling constants

Long-range carbon-fluorine coupling constants, nJ(C,F) (n ≥> 4), were observed for up to six-bond separated nuclei in some substituted trifluoromethylvinyl compounds (CF3CX=CYZ). When the nJ(C,F) in a Z-isomer are compared with those in the corresponding E-isomer, the n(C,F) in one isomer whose substituent including the coupled carbon is proximate to the trifluoromethyl group are always larger than those in the other isomer. Because the coupling constants are transmitted through space, the nJ(C,F) decrease with increase in the spatial distance of the carbon and the fluorine. This relationship can be used to determine the configurational assignments in the two stereoisomers even in the case where only one isomer is obtained.

An Integrated Continuous Flow Micro-Total Ultrafast Process System (μ-TUFPS) for the Synthesis of Celecoxib and Other Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors

Integrated continuous manufacturing has emerged as a promising device for the rapid manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). We herein report a newly designed continuous flow micro-total process system platform for the rapid manufacturing of celecoxib, a selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. This approach has been proven generally for the synthesis of several alkyl and aryl substituted pyrazoles. In order to minimize the tedious work-up process of potential reaction intermediates/products, we have developed a continuous flow extraction and separation platform to carry out the entire reaction sequence resulting in a short residence time with good yield. The present process was further extended to gram-scale synthesis of the COX-2-related API, viz. celecoxib, in the continuous flow process.

Design and synthesis of novel benzenesulfonamide containing 1,2,3-triazoles as potent human carbonic anhydrase isoforms I, II, IV and IX inhibitors

In a quest to discover new biologically active compounds, a series of twenty novel heterocyclic derivatives substituted at position 5 with -H (7a-7j) or -CF3 (8a-8j), bearing benzenesulfonamide at N-1 position and various aroyl groups at position 4 of the 1,2,3-triazole ring was synthesized and screened for their carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibition potential against four human (h) isoforms hCA I, II, IV and IX. All the compounds (7a-7j and 8a-8j) were synthesized via [3+2] cycloaddition reaction from 4-azidobenzenesulfonamide. Interestingly, compounds 7a-7j were prepared in one pot manner via enaminone intermediate using novel methodology. All the newly synthesized compounds (7a-7j & 8a-8j) were found to be excellent inhibitors of edema related isoform hCA I with their inhibition constant (Ki) ranging from 30.1 to 86.8 nM as compared to standard drug acetazolamide (AAZ) with Ki = 250 nM. Further it was found that most of tested compounds were weaker inhibitors of isoform, hCA II although compounds 7b, 7d-7e, 8a, 8d-8f, 8i (mostly with electron withdrawing substituents) have shown better inhibition potential (Ki i = 52.4 nM) than AAZ (Ki = 74 nM) while against tumor associated hCA IX, all the compounds have shown moderate inhibition potential. Present study have added one more step in exploring the 1,2,3-triazlole moiety in the medicinal field.

An SAR study of hydroxy-trifluoromethylpyrazolines as inhibitors of Orai1-mediated store operated Ca2+ entry in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells using a convenient Fluorescence Imaging Plate Reader assay

The proteins Orai1 and STIM1 control store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) into cells. SOCE is important for migration, invasion and metastasis of MDA-MB-231 human triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and has been proposed as a target for cancer drug discovery. Two hit compounds from a medium throughput screen, displayed encouraging inhibition of SOCE in MDA-MB-231 cells, as measured by a Fluorescence Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR) Ca2+ assay. Following NMR spectroscopic analysis of these hits and reassignment of their structures as 5-hydroxy-5-trifluoromethylpyrazolines, a series of analogues was prepared via thermal condensation reactions between substituted acylhydrazones and trifluoromethyl 1,3-dicarbonyl arenes. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies showed that small lipophilic substituents at the 2- and 3-positions of the RHS and 2-, 3- and 4-postions of the LHS terminal benzene rings improved activity, resulting in a novel class of potent and selective inhibitors of SOCE.

Stereoarrayed CF3-Substituted 1,3-Diols by Dynamic Kinetic Resolution: Ruthenium(II)-Catalyzed Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation

CF3-substituted 1,3-diols were stereoselectively prepared in excellent enantiopurity and high yield from CF3-substituted diketones by using an ansa-ruthenium(II)-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation in formic acid/triethylamine. The intermediate mono-reduced alcohol was also obtained in very high enantiopurity by applying milder reaction conditions. In particular, CF3C(O)-substituted benzofused cyclic ketones underwent either a single or a double dynamic kinetic resolution during their reduction. Doubling up: A double dynamic kinetic resolution is described for the ansa-ruthenium(II)-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of diketones in formic acid/triethylamine to yield the title compounds, displaying a stereotriad, in excellent stereopurity. The intermediate mono-reduced alcohols were isolated in very high enantiopurity by using milder reaction conditions.

Synthesis, fungicidal activity and mode of action of 4-phenyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-aminopyrimidines against Botrytis cinerea

Anilinopyrimidines are the main chemical agents for management of Botrytis cinerea. However, the drug resistance in fungi against this kind of compounds is very serious. To explore new potential fungicides against B. cinerea, a series of 4-phenyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-amino-pyrimidine compounds (compounds III-1 to III-22) were synthesized, and their structures were confirmed by 1H-NMR, IR and MS. Most of these compounds possessed excellent fungicidal activity. The compounds III-3 and III-13 showed higher fungicidal activity than the positive control pyrimethanil on fructose gelatin agar (FGA), and compound III-3 on potato dextrose agar (PDA) indicated high activity compared to the positive control cyprodinil. In vivo greenhouse results indicated that the activity of compounds III-3, III-8, and III-11 was significantly higher than that of the fungicide pyrimethanil. Scanning electron micrography (SEM) and transmission electron micrography (TEM) were applied to illustrate the mechanism of title compounds against B. cinerea. The title compounds, especially those containing a fluorine atom at the ortho-position on the benzene ring, could maintain the antifungal activity against B. cinerea, but their mechanism of action is different from that of cyprodinil. The present study lays a good foundation for us to find more efficient reagents against B. cinerea.

Comparative study of the regioselectivity and reaction media for the synthesis of 1-tert-butyl-3(5)-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazoles

A study is presented for the synthesis of a series of 1-tert-butyl-3(5)- (trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazoles from the reaction of 4-alkoxy-1,1,1-trifluoro-3- alken-2-ones [CF3C(O)CH=C(R1)(OR), where R = Et and R 1 = H or R = Me and R1 = Me, Ph, 4-Me-C6H 4, 4-MeO-C6H4, 4-F-C6H4, 4-Cl-C6H4, 4-Br-C6H4, 4-I-C 6H4, fur-2-yl, thien-2-yl, or naphth-2-yl] with tert-butylhydrazine hydrochloride. When [BMIM][BF4] (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate) and pyridine were used as the reaction media, we obtained a mixture of 1-tert-butyl-3(5)- trifluoromethylpyrazoles. The formation of 5-trifluoromethyl-1-tert-butyl-1H- pyrazoles with high regioselectivity occurred when the reaction was carried out with NaOH in EtOH. The formation of 1-tert-butyl-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazoles occurred, after hydrolysis of the 4-alkoxy-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-alken-2-ones in H2O and H2SO4, followed by cyclization in [BMIM][BF4] and pyridine.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of substituted hydrazone and pyrazole derivatives as selective COX-2 inhibitors: Molecular docking study

New arylhydrazone derivatives and a series of 1,5-diphenyl pyrazoles were designed and synthesized from 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifuorobutane-1,3-dione 1. The newly synthesized compounds were investigated in vivo for their anti-inflammatory activities using carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema model. Moreover, they were tested for their inhibitory activity against ovine COX-1 and COX-2 using an in vitro cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition assay. Some of the new compounds (2f, 6a and 6d) showed a reasonable in vitro COX-2 inhibitory activity, with IC50 value of 0.45 μM and selectivity index of 111.1. A virtual screening was carried out through docking the designed compounds into the COX-2 binding site to predict if these compounds have analogous binding mode to the COX-2 inhibitors. Docking study of the synthesized compounds 2f, 6a and 6d into the active site of COX-2 revealed a similar binding mode to SC-558, a selective COX-2 inhibitor.

Synthesis and characterization of the titanium complexes bearing two β-enaminoketonato ligands with electron withdrawing groups/modified phenyls and their behaviors for ethylene (co-)polymerization

A series of new titanium complexes with two asymmetric bidentate β-enaminoketonato [N,O] ligands (2b-t), [PhNC(CF3)CHC(Ar)O] 2TiCl2 (2b, Ar = -C6H4F(o); 2c, Ar = -C6H4F(m); 2d, Ar = -C6H4F(p); 2e, Ar = -C6H4Cl(p); 2f, Ar = -C6H 4OMe(p); 2g, Ar = -C6H4CF3(p); 2h, Ar = -C6H4CF3(m); 2i, Ar = -C6H 4CF3(o); 2j, Ar = -C6H4Cl(o); 2k, Ar = -C6H4Br(o); 2l, Ar = -C6H4I(o); 2m, Ar = -C6H3F2(2,4); 2n, Ar = -C 6H3F2(2,6); 2o, Ar = -C6H 3F2(3,4); 2p, Ar = -C6H3F 2(3,5); 2q, Ar = -C6F5; 2r, Ar = C 6F4OMe; 2s, Ar = -C6H3Cl 2(2,6); 2t, Ar = -C6H3Cl2(2,5)), have been synthesized based on substituted acetophenones. X-Ray analyses reveal that complexes 2h, 2k, 2m, and 2n adopt distorted octahedral geometry around the titanium center, in which the two chloride ligands are situated in the cis-orientation. 2s also adopts distorted octahedral geometry, but the two chloride ligands in it are situated in the trans-orientation due to the increase of the steric effect of the phenyl derived from the acetophenone. The influence of the substituent effects on catalyst performance, including catalytic activities and the molecular weight distribution of the polymers obtained, was investigated in detail. With modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) as a cocatalyst, complexes 2b-r and 2t are active catalysts for ethylene polymerization at room temperature, and produce high molecular weight polymers. It is observed that the catalytic activities are significantly enhanced by introducing some electron-withdrawing groups, such as -F, -Cl and -CF3, into the suitable positions of the phenyl ring close to the oxygen donor. It should be noted that complexes 2c-i, 2p, 2n and 2t are also capable of promoting the living copolymerization of ethylene with norbornene at room temperature, yielding high molecular weight copolymers with narrow molecular weight distributions (PDI = 1.05-1.30).
