Descrevemos uma síntese rápida e pratica de pirazolonas, na ausência de solvente, sob irradiação de microondas. Esta metodologia sintética envolve a reação de b-cetoésteres com hidrazinas substituídas e não-substituídas e oferece uma preparação simples e direta de diferentes pirazolonas com alta regioseletividade. Essas pirazolonas podem existir em diferentes formas tautoméricas em solução e o anel 2-aril-pirazol-3-ona permanece torcido em relação ao plano da pirazolona no estado cristalino. O mecanismo da reação é proposto levando em conta a regiosseletividade. Uma das pirazolonas obtidas nesse processo foi usada na preparação de um derivado espirociclohexanona de significativo potencial biológico.A high speed, solvent-free, and practical synthesis of pyrazolones under microwave irradiation is described. This greener synthetic methodology involves the reaction of b-keto ester with substituted or unsubstituted hydrazine and provides a simple and straightforward one-pot approach for the synthesis of a variety of pyrazolone derivatives with high regioselectivity. These pyrazolones can exist in different tautomeric forms in solution and the aryl ring of 2-aryl pyrazol-3-ones remain twisted with respect to the pyrazole plane in the crystal state. Mechanism of the reaction accounting the regioselectivity has been proposed. One of the pyrazolones obtained via this process was utilized to prepare a spirocyclohexanone derivative of potential biological significance.
As modificações químicas da nimesulida via N-acilação direta ou através de um processo em duas etapas, envolvendo redução do grupo nitro seguida da acilação/sulfonilação regiosseletiva da arilamina resultante são descritas. A etapa da acilação do segundo método foi mais rápida do que a acilação da nimesulida. Uma série de derivados N-acilados e N-sulfonilados de N-(4-amino-2-fenóxi fenil)metanossulfonamida, obtidos a partir de nimesulida foram convenientemente preparados com bons a excelentes rendimentos. Alguns dos compostos sintetizados foram testados para inibição da ciclooxigenase e poucos mostraram seletividade para COX-2.We describe here the chemical modifications of nimesulide either via direct N-acylation or via a two-step process involving reduction of the nitro group followed by regioselective acylation/ sulfonylation of the resulting arylamine. The acylation step of the second approach was found to be faster than acylation of nimesulide. A number of N-acylated and N-sulfonylated derivatives of N-(4-amino-2-phenoxy phenyl)methanesulfonamide obtained from nimesulide were conveniently prepared in good to excellent yields. Some of the compounds synthesized were tested for cyclooxygenase inhibition and few of them showed selectivity for COX-2.
A new class of 1,2,3-triazol derivatives derived from nimesulide was designed as potential inhibitors of PDE4B. Synthesis of these compounds was carried out via a multi-step sequence consisting of copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) as a key step in aqueous media. The required azide was prepared via the reaction of aryl amine (obtained from nimesulide) with α-chloroacetyl chloride followed by displacing the α-chloro group by an azide. Some of the synthesized compounds showed encouraging PDE4B inhibitory properties in vitro that is >50% inhibition at 30 μM that were supported by the docking studies of these compounds at the active site of PDE4B enzyme (dock scores ~ -28.6 for a representative compound). Two of these PDE4 inhibitors showed promising cytotoxic properties against HCT-15 human colon cancer cells in vitro with IC50 ~ 21-22 μg/mL.
