Bis-Hydrazonoyl chloride as precursors for synthesis of novel polysubstituted bis-azoles

Synthesis of Novel Bis-pyrazole Derivatives as Antimicrobial Agents

BACKGROUND

Bis-heterocycles especially those containing pyrazole moiety display much better antibacterial activity than mono heterocycles.

OBJECTIVE

Herein, we synthesised a series of new bis-pyrazoles and investigated their antimicrobial agents.

METHODS

A novel series of bis-pyrazole derivatives have been synthesized in good yield by coupling reaction of cyanoacetic acid {4-[(2-cyano-acetyl)-hydrazonomethyl]-benzylidene}-hydrazide with a number of diazonium salts of aromatic amines in DMF in the presence of NaOH. Refluxing of the produced hydrazones with hydrazine-hydrate in ethanolic solution afforded the respective bis-pyrazoles. On the other hand, the reaction of bis(cyanoacetic acid hydrazide) derivative with a diversity of hydrazonoyl chlorides in dioxane under reflux gave bis-pyrazoles.

RESULTS

The structures of all the products were discussed and assured from all possible spectral data as well as for the elemental analysis. In addition, the results of the antimicrobial activity examination of selected derivatives revealed a high strength of some tested compounds compared to standard bactericides and fungicides utilized. Molecular docking of the newly synthesized compounds into the Enoyl ACP reductase active site supported the in vitro antimicrobial activity. All the tested compounds could fit in the enzyme binding pocket with significant binding affinities (-7.040 to -9.141 Kcal/mol).

CONCLUSION

The good results of the antimicrobial examination of the newly synthesized bis-pyrazoles comprise the considerable evidence of the importance of bis-heterocyclic compounds which encourages us to continue designing and synthesising a novel series with potent biological activity in the future.

Development of Novel and Efficient Processes for the Synthesis of 5-Amino and 5-Iminoimidazo[1,2-a]imidazoles via Three-Component Reaction Catalyzed by Zirconium(IV) Chloride

General and efficient approaches for the synthesis of new 5-amino and 5-iminoimidazo[1,2-a]imidazoles were developed through a three-component reaction of 1-unsubstituted 2-aminoimidazoles with various aldehydes and isocyanides mediated by zirconium(IV) chloride. The protocols were established considering the reactivity of the starting substrate, which varies depending on the presence of a substituent on the 2-aminoimidazole moiety. A library of new N-fused ring systems with wide structural diversification, novel synthetic, and potential pharmacological interest was obtained in moderate to good yields.

A review on bis-hydrazonoyl halides: Recent advances in their synthesis and their diverse synthetic applications leading to bis-heterocycles of biological interest

This review covers a summary of the literature data published on the chemistry of bis-hydrazonoyl halides over the last four decades. The biological activities of some of the bis-heterocyclic compounds obtained from these bis-hydrazonoyl halides are also reviewed and discussed.

Hydrazonoyl Chlorides as Precursors for Synthesis of Novel Bis-Pyrrole Derivatives

A convenient synthesis of some novel bis-pyrrole derivatives via hydrazonoyl halides is described. Antimicrobial evaluation of some selected examples of the synthesized products was carried out. The bis-pyrrole derivative having chloro substituents showed good activity against all of the used microbes. The molecular docking of the bis-pyrrole derivatives was performed by the Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) program.
