Effects of urea, Na+ and Li+ ions on the kinetics and mechanism of intramolecular general base-catalyzed glycolysm of ionized phenyl salicylate in ethane-1,2-diol-acetonitrile solvents at a constant water concentration

Pseudo-first-order rate constants (k1) for the reaction of ethane-1,2-diol (DOL) with ionized phenyl salicylate (PS-), obtained in mixed DOL-CH3CN solvent at constant [H2O] and [NaOH], obey the relationship k1 = α[DOL]T/(1 + 2KA[DOL]T), where α is the apparent second-order rate constant, KA is the association constant for the dimerization of DOL and [DOL]T is the total concentration of DOL. The values of KA, in the presence of Na+ ions, decrease with increase in [H2O]. Lithium ions cause almost complete depolymerization of polymeric DOL (i.e. KA ≈ 0) under the experimental conditions imposed. The effect of 0.5 M urea on the structural behavior of the mixed solvent is kinetically insignificant.

Methyl salicylate is a selective and inexpensive methylating agent for the esterification of carboxylic acids with a wide range of functional group tolerance. The intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the carboxylate and hydroxyl groups in methyl salicylate are essential for the transformation. Allyl, benzyl, methallyl, and propargyl salicylates can also be used as alkylating agents for the preparation of the corresponding alkyl carboxylates.

Starting from methyl salicylate and 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)propane-1,3- diol 1a, or 2-amino- 2-methylpropane-1-ol 1b, the 2-oxazoline derivatives 2a, 2b or 3, as well as mono- 4a and 4b and bis- 5a and 5b derivatives of salicylic acid were synthesized. Reactions were performed by microwave irradiation in the presence of tetrabutylammonium bromide or metallic sodium as catalyst, as well as by conventional heating. Microwave-induced reaction of some diols, diamines and amino alcohols with methyl salicylate gave mono- and/or bis- derivatives of salicylic acid 4c, 5c, 5d, 6c, 8c, 7a, 7b, 8a and 8b. The mono- and bis-salicyloyl derivatives 4c, 5c and 5d were transformed to the corresponding phenyl-azo derivatives 9, 10c and 10d. The structure of compound 3 was proved by the X-ray analysis and the R-configuration on its stereocenter was confirmed. The antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of the synthesized derivatives were evaluated in a series of in vitro tests. Compounds 5d, 8b and 8c exhibited very strong activity against hydroxyl radical. Six 4c, 5d, 8a-c, 10c of 16 tested compounds inhibited growth of MDA-MB-231 cells at a nanomolar concentration. Compounds 8c and 10c showed high cytotoxicity against MCF7 cells, whereas compounds 4c, 5d, 8a-c and 10d showed high activity against K562 cells. ARKAT-USA, Inc.
