Knoevenagel condensation in aqueous media promoted by 2,2′-bipyridinium dihydrogen phosphate as a green efficient catalyst

A 2,2′-Bipyridine-based ionic compound named 2,2′-bipyridinium dihydrogen phosphate was synthesized by addition of phosphoric acid to a solution of 2,2′-Bipyridine in dichloromethane. After the characterization using FT-IR, mass, 1H, 13C and 31P NMR techniques, it was used as a Bronsted dicationic acidic catalyst for the promotion of the synthesis of 2-arylidene malononitrile and 5-arylidene barbituric acid derivatives via Knoevenagel condensation reaction in water. Some of the advantages of this method are the utilization of an easy preparable, cost-effective and eco-friendly organic salt as a catalyst within high rates and yields of the reactions, simple and quick work-up and acceptable reusability of the catalyst.

A study on the physical properties of low melting mixtures and their use as catalysts/solvent in the synthesis of barbiturates

In recent years, deep eutectic solvents have become attractive due to their interesting characteristics such as, physicochemical properties, low cost of components, easiness to prepare, low toxicity, bio-renewability, and biodegradability. In order to make the deep eutectic mixture more cost-effective and renewable, carbohydrate derivatives were linked with deep eutectic mixtures, since, carbohydrates are the most important and widespread renewable compounds on the earth. In this work, we have used low melting mixtures comprised of carbohydrates to create the reaction media for organic transformations. The physical properties such as density, viscosity, acidity, refractive index, surface tension, solubility, glass transition temperature, thermal stability, solvent polarity, and toxicity of the mixture were studied. Low melting mixtures were used as reaction media and catalysts for the effective synthesis of Barbiturates. The reaction between aldehydes and barbituric acid/thiobarbituric acid, and the reaction between aldehydes, barbituric acid/thiobarbituric acid, and malononitrile/dimedone were performed effectively with good to excellent yields. The recyclability of the catalyst/solvent was also established.

Properties of a furan ring-opening reaction in aqueous micellar solutions for selective sensing of mesalazine

A novel and efficient non-azo formation based method was developed for trace sensing of mesalazine (MES), a pharmaceutical aromatic amine. MES was simply coupled with a Meldrum's activated furan (MAF) reagent via a furan ring opening reaction to form a colored product. The intense purple colored solution was detected at 575 nm. The reaction of MES with MAF was monitored by employing 1H NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. In addition, density functional theory (DFT) was applied to optimize the structure of the colored product and its λmax (the wavelength of maximum absorbance) in dimethyl sulfoxide and water. The colored product was considered in three possible structures, and the most possible structures in dimethyl sulfoxide and in water were identified by employing the DFT calculations. Both of the most possible structures indicated only a local excitation in their λmax and no charge transfer was observed. However, one of the structures in dimethyl sulfoxide presented charge transfer properties occurring through N–C[dbnd]C–C moiety. A univariate optimization method was also used to attain the optimum condition for analysis. In addition, the dependence of the analytical response on the three main affecting parameters (reaction time (X1), Triton X-100 concentration (X2) and MAF concentration (X3)) was identified by employing a central composite design (CCD) approach. The CCD study showed that the analytical response depends complexly on the parameters. Beer's law was obeyed within the range of 0.06–9.30 μg mL?1 of MES (155 fold linearity) at 575 nm, under the optimum condition introduced by the CCD approach. Also, the limit of detection was obtained 0.04 μg mL?1 of MES. The method showed precision (as relative standard deviation) and accuracy (as recovery) within the ranges of 0.6–3.2 % and 96.3–100.8%, respectively. Various organic and inorganic species, amino-pharmaceuticals, and amino acids were tested to evaluate the selectivity of the method. The selectivity of the analytical method was satisfactory. The method was successfully applied for detection of MES in various water matrices and pharmaceutical tablets.

Encapsulation and Stabilization of a Donor-Acceptor Stenhouse Adduct Isomer in Water Inside the Blue Box: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Approach

We synthesized two types of donor-acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs), a new type of photochromic molecules showing dual color in two different isomeric forms in solution phase, using Meldrum acid (DASA-Mel) and barbituric acid (DASA-Bar), along with a naphthalimide derivative to obtain interesting fluorescence properties. DASA-Mel was found to have fast photochromic conversion in comparison to DASA-Bar, evident from ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and fluorescence spectroscopic studies. The colored form of DASA-Mel was encapsulated inside the water-soluble Stoddart’s blue box and became soluble in water much faster than DASA-Bar. Interestingly, the competitive encapsulation experiment showed that DASA-Mel was selectively encapsulated inside the blue box in water whereas DASA-Bar was mostly separated out from the solution after centrifugation, and this phenomenon was confirmed by1H and DOSY NMR and mass spectroscopies. Moreover, we found through density functional theory (DFT) optimization that the open form of DASA-Mel was more stable during the encapsulation reaction in a water medium in comparison to DASA-Bar. The calculated binding energies of encapsulated DASA-Mel and DASA-Bar are ?10.2 and ?9.9 kcal/mol, respectively, clearly showing that the former is more stable by 0.3 kcal. Consequently, the organic macrocycle selectively separating one kind of DASA from a mixture by encapsulation in water is reported for the first time with experimental and theoretical support in the literature.

The introduction of two new imidazole-based bis-dicationic Br?nsted acidic ionic liquids and comparison of their catalytic activity in the synthesis of barbituric acid derivatives

In this article, the preparation of bis-imidazolium hydrogen sulfate and bis-imidazolium perchlorate as two new bis-dicationic Br?nsted acidic ionic liquids based on imidazole is reported. After characterization by FT-IR, mass and NMR spectroscopy and pH titration, the applicability of these reagents is studied in the promotion of the synthesis of 5-arylidene barbituric acids and pyrano[2,3-d] pyrimidinone derivatives. These methods possess some advantages such as ease of preparation of the catalyst, simple work-up procedure, short reaction times, excellent yields, and use of nonorganic solvents during all steps of the reactions and good reusability of the catalysts.

Synthesis and antifungal activity of substituted 2,4,6-pyrimidinetrione carbaldehyde hydrazones

Opportunistic fungal infections caused by the Candida spp. are the most common human fungal infections, often resulting in severe systemic infections - a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in at-risk populations. Azole antifungals remain the mainstay of antifungal treatment for candidiasis, however development of clinical resistance to azoles by Candida spp. limits the drugs' efficacy and highlights the need for discovery of novel therapeutics. Recently, it has been reported that simple hydrazone derivatives have the capability to potentiate antifungal activities in vitro. Similarly, pyrimidinetrione analogs have long been explored by medicinal chemists as potential therapeutics, with more recent focus being on the potential for pyrimidinetrione antimicrobial activity. In this work, we present the synthesis of a class of novel hydrazone-pyrimidinetrione analogs using novel synthetic procedures. In addition, structure-activity relationship studies focusing on fungal growth inhibition were also performed against two clinically significant fungal pathogens. A number of derivatives, including phenylhydrazones of 5-acylpyrimidinetrione exhibited potent growth inhibition at or below 10 μM with minimal mammalian cell toxicity. In addition, in vitro studies aimed at defining the mechanism of action of the most active analogs provide preliminary evidence that these compound decrease energy production and fungal cell respiration, making this class of analogs promising novel therapies, as they target pathways not targeted by currently available antifungals.

CoFe2O4 nanoparticles: An efficient heterogeneous magnetically separable catalyst for "click" synthesis of arylidene barbituric acid derivatives at room temperature

A coprecipitation method was used to synthesize superparamagnetic CoFe 2O4 nanoparticles without using any capping agents/surfactants. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), N2 adsorption and thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis/differential thermal gravimetry techniques. The synthesized spinel CoFe2O4 nanoparticles had an average size of 2-8 nm with a high surface area (140.9 m2/g). The field-dependent magnetization, demonstrated by VSM and saturation magnetization, was found to be 1.77 emu/g. An efficient method was used for the synthesis of arylidene barbituric acid derivatives using CoFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a magnetically separable and reusable catalyst in aqueous ethanol. The attractive features of this synthetic protocol were very short reaction time, high yields, high turnover frequency, simple work-up procedure, economy, a clean reaction methodology, and chemoselectivity, as well as provision of an ecofriendly and green synthesis.

New strategy for the synthesis of 5-Aryl-1H,1′H-spiro[furo[2,3-d] pyrimidine-6,5′-pyrimidine]2,2′,4,4′,6′(3H,3'H,5H) -pentaones and their sulfur analogues

Reaction of barbituric acid (BA), 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid (DMBA) and 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) with cyanogen bromide and aldehydes in the presence of L-(+)-tartaric acid afforded a new route for the synthesis of stable heterocyclic 5-aryl-1H,1′H-spiro[furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6,5′- pyrimidine]2,2′,4,4′,6′(3H,3′H,5H)- pentaones which is a dimeric form of barbiturate (uracil and thiouracil derivative). In the reaction of 1,3-diethyl thiobarbituric acid (DETBA) the Knoevenagel condensation and then Michael adducts were obtained under the same condition. Structure elucidation is carried out by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR and Mass analyses. Mechanism of the formation is discussed.

Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of novel 5-substituted pyrimidin-2,4,6-triones

5-Benzylpyrimidin-2,4,6-triones (3a-c), 5-((furan-2-yl)methyl)pyrimidin-2, 4,6-trione (3g) and 5-((3-aryl-1-phe-nyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methyl)pyrimidin-2,4,6- triones (3h-j) were obtained in two steps. Reaction of barbituric acid (1) with various substituted aromatic aldehydes, furfuraldehyde and 3-aryl-1-phenyl-1H- pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes in methanol yielded the corresponding chalcones 2a-m in 48-85% yield. These chalcones on reduction with sodium borohydride in isopropyl alcohol furnished desired novel compounds 3a-c and 3g-j in 55-85% yield. The structure of all the synthesized compounds have been established by various spectral studies and elemental analysis. All the synthesized compounds have been screened for antimicrobial activity.
