Abstract

The current work reports the synthesis of novel hydrazones and bis-hydrazones containing 1,2,3-triazole moiety. Base-assisted aldol condensation of 4-acetyl-1,2,3-triazole 1a (R = NO2) and anisaldehyde (2) gave the corresponding chalcone 3 in 88% yield. 4-(1-(2-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)hydrazineylidene)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)allyl)-5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole (5) was synthesized in 85% yield from the reaction of 3 and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (4) in boiling ethanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of HCl. Condensation of 1b (R = OMe) and N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamide(6) in an acidic medium led to unexpected bis-hydrazones 8 rather than carbothioamide 7. An acid catalyzed one-pot three-component reaction of carbohydrazide 9, isatoic anhydride (10), and 1b,c (c: R = F, d: R = H) gave the corresponding hydrazones 12a12c in high yields, instead of the expected dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones 11. The resulting hydrazones were fully characterized using different techniques including 1H NMR, 13C NMR, X-ray and elemental analysis. Antibacterial screening revealed that some of the synthesized heterocycles showed moderate activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC-47077 and Listeria monocytogenes ATCC-35152.

1. Introduction

Scientists and researchers spend a lot of time and effort developing new antibacterial drugs that benefit human health [Citation1]. Recently, a wide range of organic compounds have been created specifically for this purpose, with various molecular hybridization procedures used to add structural properties, or reconfigure structural features, in both old and new biologically active compounds [Citation2]. Numerous nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds have revealed interesting biological activity and have received interest from medicinal chemists because of the numerous functional uses potentially on offer [Citation3]. Due to their broad range of biological applications, hydrazone linkages and 1,2,3-triazoles have been identified as two of the most fascinating scaffolds in medicinal chemistry [Citation4].

Hydrazones, sometimes known as “Schiff bases”, are remarkable chemical compounds, which have a broad range of application in medicine. Owing to their highly tunable features and exceptional properties, hydrazones have become essential in the fields of organic synthesis and bioorganic chemistry and have been reported to exhibit fascinating pharmacological activity, such as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-Alzheimer, anti-depressant, insecticidal, and enzyme inhibition [Citation5,Citation6]. Besides their unique properties, the tunable nature of hydrazones has facilitated the development of valuable novel molecules with potential applications as preservers, drugs, polymers, glues, and many other applications [Citation3–6]. Structurally, hydrazones are generally synthesized from the acidic condensation of carbonyl compounds and hydrazine derivatives [Citation7–11].

Furthermore, the 1,2,3-triazole core is a significant building block with several biomedical applications, including anti-cancer [Citation12] anti-fungal [Citation13,Citation14], anti-bacterial [Citation15,Citation16], analgesic [Citation17], anti-inflammatory [Citation18], anti-tubercular [Citation19,Citation20], anti-tyrosinase [Citation21] and anti-convulsant activity [Citation22].

Numerous FDA-approved medications have 1,2,3-triazole cores, such as the anticonvulsant Rufinamide, the anti-HIV medicine TSAO, the antibiotic Cefatrizine, the antibacterial Tazobactam, the anticancer agent CAI, and antiviral ribavirin analogues [Citation23–26]. Recently, great attention has been devoted to the development of structural hybrid molecules from bioactive chemical substances, which is a novel and promising method for enhancing drug discovery and the development of prototypes [Citation27,Citation28].

This motivated us to develop a new hydrazone based-1,2,3-triazole core, as well as investigate their biological applications as a continuation of our interest in the synthesis of novel bioactive nitrogen containing heterocycles [Citation29–31].

2.6. Antibacterial Activity

The agar well diffusion procedure was used as the medium to investigate the antibacterial activity of the newly synthesized heterocycles [34, 35]. Vancomycin and ampicillin served as benchmark drugs for comparability. Bacteria (seventy µL) were smeared on nutrient agar-coated plates. On the implanted agar plates, a borehole (6 mm in diameter) was drilled out, and each sample (200 mg in 1 mL of DMSO) was then added. The agar-inoculated plates were coated with the reference antibiotic disks (30 and10 µg/disk of vancomycin and ampicillin, respectively). The plates were kept at 4°C for 2 h before incubation to permit the diffusion to occur. With the exception of yeast strains, which were incubated at 28°C for 24 hours, the plates were kept at 37°C. The inhibitory zone's diameter (in mm) was estimated, and the averages were computed after five replications of the tests.

3. Results and discussion

3.1. Chemistry

Aldol condensation of 1-(5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethan-1-one (1a, R = NO2) and anisaldehyde (2) were stirred in an aqueous ethanol solution containing sodium hydroxide, at room temperature for 4h, which gave (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (3) in 88% yield (Scheme 1). The targeted hydrazone-based 1,2,3-triazole 5 was synthesized in 85% yield from the condensation reaction of chalcone 3 and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (4) for 4 h in boiling EtOH in the presence of concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl) as a catalyst (Scheme 1).

The 1H NMR spectrum of 3 showed that the two chalcone (=CH) protons appeared as two doublets (J = 8.6 Hz) in the aromatic region. Additionally, it displayed two singlets that appeared at 3.88 and 2.63 ppm, with three protons each, corresponding to the methoxy (OCH3) and methyl (CH3) protons, respectively. On the other hand, the 1H NMR spectrum of 5 showed an exchangeable diagnostic singlet at 12.37 ppm, attributed to the amino proton (NH), which confirmed the success of the condensation reaction. Its 13C NMR spectrum displayed two signals at 11.0 and 55.8 ppm attributable to the methyl and methoxy carbons, respectively. Further evidence for the formation of compounds 3 and 5 was established using the X-ray crystallography of a single crystal (Figures and , respectively).

Surprisingly, the condensation of 1b (R = OMe) with N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamide (6), in boiling dry EtOH in the presence of a sufficient quantity of glacial acetic acid (AcOH) for 3 h, afforded the unexpected bis-hydrazones 8 in 85% yield rather than the expected thiosemicarbazone adduct 7 (Scheme 2).

The formation of compound 8 involved the reaction of 1b with 6 to produce intermediate 7. The reaction of 7 and 1b produced intermediate A, which lost phenyl isothiocyanate and water to give 8 (Scheme 3).

The absence of diagnostic thiosemicarbazide NH protons in the resulting product's 1H NMR spectrum rules out the formation of thiosemicarbazone 7. The 1H NMR spectrum of the resulting compound 8 displayed three singlets, with six protons each, which resonated at 2.62 (2 CH3), 2.64 (2 CH3), and 3.89 ppm (2 OCH3). Its 13C NMR spectrum revealed the presence of 10 signals. For example, the two methyl carbons appeared at 11.4 and 15.9 ppm, while the methoxy carbons appeared at 55.7 ppm. The aromatic protons and carbons appeared in their appropriate regions. These results confirmed the formation of compound 8 and not 7. Additionally, the structure of 8 was clearly supported using X-ray crystallography of a single crystal (Figure ).

Spiro-quinazolinones have been synthesized and described in the literature [Citation36] using one-pot reactions of isatoic anhydride, cyclic ketones, and hydrazides using phosphorous acid (H3PO3) as a catalyst. The reactions of isatoic anhydride (10), 1,2,3-triazole-4-carbohydrazides 9a,b (X = OMe, F), and 4-acetyltriazoles 1c,d (R = F, H) in the presence of H3PO3 were investigated under the same conditions. Surprisingly, the corresponding hydrazones 12a–12c, rather than the expected dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones 11, were formed (Scheme 4).

NMR spectroscopy and x-ray crystallography (Figures and ) were used to establish the structures of 12a–12c. The 1H NMR spectra of 12a–12c, for example, revealed the presence of a distinct exchangeable singlet at 10.69–10.78 ppm, corresponding to the hydrazone NH proton.

According to the results of the antibacterial screening (Table ), compounds 3, 5, and 8 were found to be active against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC-47077 (S. aureus) and Listeria monocytogenes ATCC-35152 (L. monocytogenes). The compounds tested showed moderate activity compared with ampicillin and vancomycin (Table ). The minimal inhibitory concentrations of 3, 5, and 8 were in the range of 100–120 μg/mL.
