Novel synthesis of seco type of acyclo C-nucleosides of 1,2,4-triazole and 1,2,4-triazol

The seco C-nucleosides 3-(1,2,3,4,5-penta-O-acetyl-D-gluco- and D-galacto-pentitol-1-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazoles (8 and 9) were obtained in a one pot by deamination and dethiolation of 4-amino-3-(D-gluco- and D-galacto-pentitol-1-yl)-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles (1 and 2), respectively, using sodium nitrite in orthophosphoric acid and subsequent acetylation. Condensation of 1, 2, and 4-amino-3-(D-glycero-D-gulo-hexitol-1-yl)-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole (12) with phenacylbromide (11) afforded the corresponding 3-(D-gluco-, D-galactopentitol-1-yl) and 3-(D-glycero-D-gulo-hexitol-1-yl)-6-phenyl-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4] thiadiazines (15, 16, and 17). Acetylation of 15-17 gave the penta- and hexa-O-acetyl derivatives 18-20, respectively. The structures were confirmed by using 1H, 13C, and 2D NMR spectra, DQFCOSY, HMQC, and HMBC experiments. The favored conformational structures were deduced from the vicinal coupling constants of the protons.

The structures of the newly synthesized compounds have been confirmed on the basis of elemental analysis and spectral studies. The newly synthesized triazolo derivatives have been investigated for their in vitro antibacterial activity. Most of the tested compounds showed interesting antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

The 3-(D-alditol-1-yl)-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles 4 and 5 can be successfully prepared using microwave irradiation. Condensation of 4 and 5 with p-nitrobenzaldehyde afforded Schiff bases 6 and 7, respectively. Reaction 4 and 5 with ethylchloroacetate gave the corresponding alkylated products 10 and 11. Better yields and much less time were the characteristic features of using the microwave heating over the conventional one. The structure of the prepared compounds was confirmed by 1H-NMR, 2D-NMR and mass spectra.

The deamination and dethiolation of compound 4 to give 6 was also accelerated by the use of MAOS. Condensation of 4 and 5 with p-nitrobenzaldehyde afforded Schiff bases 8 and 9, respectively, within 4 min under microwave irradiation (MWI), whereas with ethyl chloroacetate the thioalkylated products 14 and 15 were obtained in 8 min. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 2D NMR, and mass spectra.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 7-hydroxy-4-phenylchromen-2-one–linked to triazole moieties as potent cytotoxic agents

A new series of novel 7-hydroxy-4-phenylchromen-2-one (1a)–linked 1,2,4-triazoles were synthesised using a click chemistry approach. All derivatives were subjected to 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-yl)-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) cytotoxicity screening against a panel of six different human cancer cell lines (AGS, MGC-803, HCT-116, A-549, HepG2, and HeLa) to assess their cytotoxic potential. Among the tested molecules, some of the analogues showed better cytotoxic activity than that shown by the 7-hydroxy-4-phenylchromen-2-one (1a). Of the synthesised 1,2,4-triazoles,the 7-((4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methoxy)-4-phenyl-2H-chromen-2-one (4d) showed the best activity, with an IC₅₀ of 2.63?±?0.17?µM against AGS cells. Further flow cytometry assays demonstrated that compound 4d exerts its antiproliferative effects by arresting cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and by inducing apoptosis. Collectively, our results indicate that the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives have a significantly stronger antitumour activity than 1,2,3-triazole derivatives. Most of the compounds exhibited better antitumour activity than the positive control drug 5-fluorouracil.

Recent target validation studies have shown that inhibition of the protein interaction between annexin A2 and the S100A10 protein may have potential therapeutic benefits in cancer. Virtual screening identified certain 3,4,5-trisubstituted 4H-1,2,4-triazoles as moderately potent inhibitors of this interaction. A series of analogues were synthesized based on the 1,2,4-triazole scaffold and were evaluated for inhibition of the annexin A2–S100A10 protein interaction in competitive binding assays. 2-[(5-{[(4,6-Dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)sulfanyl]methyl}-4-(furan-2-ylmethyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)sulfanyl]-N-[4-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]acetamide (36) showed improved potency and was shown to disrupt the native complex between annexin A2 and S100A10.     

Synthesis of 3-(alpha- and beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)-6-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine

Di-O-isopropylidene- and O-methanesulfonyl-protected 1-C-(6-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazin-3-yl)pentitols were prepared in three to four steps from D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, and 2,3:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-mannofuranose. Acid-catalysed treatment of (1S)- and (1R)-1-C-(6-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-pyridazin-3-yl)-2,3:4,5-di-O-isopropylidene-1-O-methanesulfonyl-D-arabinitols in refluxing 1,2-dimethoxyethane furnished 3-(alpha- and beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)-6-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine, respectively.

Synthesis and characterisation of a series of mononuclear ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes of heterocycle-based asymmetric bidentate ligands

In this contribution, the synthesis and characterisation of a series of complexes of the type [Ru(L-L′)(CO)₂Cl₂] are reported, where L-L′ are the chelating ligands L1-L8, 2-(4H-[1,2,4]triazol-3′-yl)-pyridine (L1); 2-(4H-[1,2,4]triazol-3′-yl)-pyrazine; (L2); 2-(1-methyl-4H-[1,2,4]-triazol-3-yl)pyridine (L3); 2-(5-pyridin-2-yl-4H-[1,2,4]-triazole-3-yl)phenol (L4); 3-(5-methylphenyl)-pyridin-2-yl-1,2,4-triazole (L5); 3-(4-methylphenyl)-pyridin-2-yl-1,2,4-triazole (L6); 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-pyridin-2-yl-1,2,4-triazole (L7); 3,6-bis[(4-methoxyphenyl)iminomethyl]pyridazine (L8). L1-L7 are triazole-based ligands, which provide two distinct bidentate coordinate modes (via N2 or N4 of the triazole) whereas L8 is pyridazine-based and contains two identical bidentate binding pockets. The products obtained are analysed using infrared and NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray and molecular structures of the complexes with the ligands L2, L6, L7 and L8 are reported. These structures are the first to be reported for triazole based ruthenium chloro and ruthenium pyridazine imine complexes. The data show that the triazole ring in L2, L6 and L7 is coordinated via the N2 atom, and that the pyridazine-based ligand L8 uses only one binding pocket hence accommodating only one ruthenium(II) centre. For all compounds the cis(CO)transCl conformation is obtained. The results obtained are compared with those obtained for other similar compounds.

A series of 1-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-5-(quinoxalin-6-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles has been synthesized and evaluated for their ALK5 inhibitory activity. The 1-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles were assembled by Cu(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. Following this, quinoxaline was introduced through Pd-catalyzed direct arylation. The synthesized 1-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-5-(quinoxalin-6-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles revealed significant selectivity differences with respect to p38α MAP kinase. In particular, 12k showed 80.8% ALK5 inhibitory activity at a concentration of 10 μM and IC₅₀ value of 4.69 μM, but did not show p38α MAP kinase inhibitory activity (?1.94% inhibition at a concentration of 10 μM).     

MICROWAVE IRRADIATION FOR ACCELERATING THE SYNTHESIS OF ACYCLONUCLEOSIDES OF 1,2,4-TRIAZOLE

The 3-(D-alditol-1-yl)-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles 4 and 5 can be successfully prepared using microwave irradiation. Condensation of 4 and 5 with p-nitrobenzaldehyde afforded Schiff bases 6 and 7, respectively. Reaction 4 and 5 with ethylchloroacetate gave the corresponding alkylated products 10 and 11. Better yields and much less time were the characteristic features of using the microwave heating over the conventional one. The structure of the prepared compounds was confirmed by ¹H-NMR, 2D-NMR and mass spectra.     

Acid-catalyzed dehydrative cyclization of 4-(D-galacto -pentitol-1-yl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole. synthesis and anomeric configuration of D-lyxo-C-nucleoside analogs

Dehydration of 4-(D-galacto-pentitol-1-yl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole with 20% methanolic sulfuric acid afforded the anomeric pairs of nucleosides, 4-(alpha-D-lyxopyranosyl)-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole (major component) and its beta-anomer, as well as 4-(alpha-D-lyxofuranosyl)-2H-1,2,3-triazole and its beta-anomer. The four anomeric C-nucleosides were separated by chromatography, and their structure and anomeric configuration were determined by periodate oxidation, acylation, and NMR spectroscopy as well as mass spectrometry. The anomeric assignment from optical rotation was not in agreement with final structure assignment and represented a violation of the Hudson isorotation rules. NOE studies and X-ray diffraction measurements confirmed the anomeric configuration.     

Synthesis of 2'-([1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)-2'-deoxyadenosines

A reliable and efficient protocol for the synthesis of 2 '-([1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)-2 '-deoxyadenosine derivatives from vidarabine is presented. Vidarabine was converted to 2'-azido-2'-deoxy-3',5-O-(tetraisopropyldisiloxane-1,3-diyl)-adenosine. This azide was used as the starting material for the Cu(I)-catalyzed parallel synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles using a variety of alkynes. The reactions proceeded in good yield and gave almost exclusively the 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles.     

Synthesis of Triazole Schiff’s Base Derivatives and Their Inhibitory Kinetics on Tyrosinase Activity

In the present study, new Schiff’s base derivatives: (Z)-4-amino-5-(2-(3- fluorobenzylidene)hydrazinyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (Y₁), (Z)-3-((2-(4-amino-5- mercapto-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol (Y₂), (Z)-2-((2-(4-amino-5- mercapto-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol (Y₃) and 3-((Z)-(2-(4- (((E)-3-hydroxybenzylidene)amino)-5-mercapto-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol (Y₄) were synthesized and their structures were characterized by LC-MS, IR and ¹H NMR. The inhibitory effects of these compounds on tyrosinase activites were evaluated. Compounds Y₁, Y₂ and Y₃ showed potent inhibitory effects with respective IC₅₀ value of 12.5, 7.0 and 1.5 μM on the diphenolase activities. Moreover, the inhibition mechanisms were determined to be reversible and mixed types. Interactions of the compounds with tyrosinase were further analyzed by fluorescence quenching, copper interaction, and molecular simulation assays. The results together with the anti-tyrosinase activities data indicated that substitution on the second position of benzene ring showed superior ant-ityrosinase activities than that on third position, and that hydroxyl substitutes were better than fluorine substitutes. In addition, two benzene rings connecting to the triazole ring would produce larger steric hindrance, and affect the bonding between tyrosinase and inhibitors to decrease the inhibitory effects. The anti-tyrosinase effects of these compounds were in contrast to their antioxidant activities. In summary, this research will contribute to the development and design of antityrosinase agents.
