The structure investigations of dehydroacetic acid and 1,8-diaminonaphthalene condensation product by NMR, MS, and X-ray measurements

Synthesis of Bis(functionalized) Aminals via Successive Nucleophilic Amidation and Amination

The central carbonyl group of diethyl mesoxalate (DEMO) exhibits high electrophilicity that allows it to be attacked by versatile nucleophiles. Even a less nucleophilic acid amide serves as a nucleophile to produce N,O-acetal upon treatment with DEMO in the presence of acetic anhydride. When the obtained N,O-acetal was treated with a base, the elimination of acetic acid generated N-acylimine in situ. N-Acylimine is also highly electrophilic, allowing it to accept the second nucleophilic addition by an amine, resulting in α,α-bis(functionalized) aminals. This protocol facilitates the modification of the two different amino groups by altering nucleophiles, resulting in the production of tetra-functionalized methane derivatives on demand. The ring closure between the amide moiety and the amino group was achieved using the structural features to form a six-membered ring.

Confirmed Mechanism for 1,8-Diaminonaphthalene and Ethyl Aroylpyrovate Derivatives Reaction, DFT/B3LYP, and Antimicrobial Activity of the Products

Two new series of perimidine derivatives were prepared from the reaction of 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with ethyl aroylpyrovate followed by coupling for the products. The structures, the mechanism, and the tautomeric forms of the products have been discussed on the basis of spectral data aided with the computational study. Applying Guassian09 software, the reaction mechanism was assured. The energy contents were computed after optimization for all proposed structures. The likely extracted compound has a reduced heat during formation and internal energy which coincides with experimental outcomes. The antimicrobial activity of all products was screened, and their results indicated the presence of five derivatives more potent than the reference drugs used. The simulation procedure was executed by Autodock 4.2 tools over the expected compounds yielded (12 and 21). This computational technique asserts on the drug behavior inside the causative organism proteins. The organisms here match with that used in the antimicrobial and antifungal study.
