A novel methylthio metabolite of s-triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine, a lead compound for the development of antianxiety drugs, in rats

A new inorganic–organic hybrid material Al-SBA-15-TPI/H6P2W18O62 catalyzed one-pot, three-component synthesis of 2H-indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-triones

Al-SBA-15-TPI/H₆P₂W₁₈O₆₂ is introduced as an effective catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of indazolo-phthalazine-triones. The catalyst could be easily separated without noticeable reduction in activity.

Synthesis and Evaluation of New Phthalazine Urea and Thiourea Derivatives as Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors

A new series of phthalazine substituted urea and thiourea derivatives were synthesized, and their inhibitory effects on the activity of purified human carbonic anhydrases (hCAs I and II) were evaluated. 2H-Indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-trione derivative(1)was prepared with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, dimedone, and phthalhydrazide in the presence of TFA in DMF, and nitro group was reduced to amine derivative(2)with SnCl2·2H2O. The compound was reacted with isocyanates and isothiocyanates to get the final products(3a–p). The results showed that all the synthesized compounds inhibited the CA isoenzymes activity.3a(IC50= 6.40 µM for hCA I and 6.13 µM for hCA II) has the most inhibitory effect. The synthesized compounds are very bulky to be able to bind near the zinc ion, and they much more probably bind as the coumarin derivatives.

Montmorillonite K-10 clay as reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the microwave-mediated solventless synthesis of phthalazinetetraones

Different phthalazino[2,3-b]phthalazine-5,7,12,14-tetraones were synthesized in a simple and environmentally benign method from the reaction of some phthalic anhydrides with semicarbazide or thiosemicarbazide using montmorillonite K-10 clay as solid heterogeneous acidic catalyst and microwaves under solvent-free conditions in good yields and short reaction times. The present method has many obvious advantages compared with those reported in the literature, including high efficiency, higher yield, operational simplicity, environmental benignity, and the possibility of recycling the solid clay. The solid clay catalyst used in the first cycle of the reactions was successfully recovered and reused in the second cycle, showing a gradual decrease in activity.Key words: montmorillonite K-10 clay, microwave, solvent-free condition, phthalazinetetraones, semicarbazide, thiosemicarbazide.
