STUDIES ON 4-0XO- THIAZOLIDINES.

Introduction:

4-0xo-thiazolidines have been found important structurally as well as

pharmacologically. To exploit the properties of the system, several 4-oxo­

thiazolidines have been prepared wherein the presence of >N-(-S linkage

imparts activity to the structure. 4-0xo-thiazolidines are the derivatives of

thiazolidines, which belong to an important group of heterocyclic compounds.

Thiazolidinones with carbonyl group at positions

subject of extensive study in the recent past.

2, 4 or 5 have been the

Numerous reports, which

appeared in the literature, have highlighted their chemistry and uses. Brown

F (I in 1961 gave a comprehensive review on 4-thiazolidinones. Later on,

Zolotoreva K A et al 2 in 1966 prepared an article, which dealt with the use of

thiazolidinone derivatives as stabilizers for polymeric materials. After this

Danila G3 in 1979 published a review on the preparation of rhodanines

(2-thiono-4-thiazolidinones) and their uses as intermediates in organic

synthesis. Diverse biological activities such as bactericidal, pesticidal,

fungicidal, insecticidal, anticonvulsant, tuberculostatic, antiinflammatory,

antithyroidal, etc. have been found to be associated with thiazolidinone

derivatives. Several thiazolidinones are reported as anaesthetic'-s,

analgesic6, hypnotiC>, sedativeS, anticonvulsant9

, antitubercular1o,

spasmopreventive" etc. Some thiazolidinones are employed in the synthesis

of merocyanine dyes, which are used in photographic film industryY

Chemistry:

Thiazolidine (I) with a carbonyl group at 4-position is known as

4-thiazolidinone (II) or 4-oxo-thiazolidine. Substituents at positions 2, 3 and

5 are known and such a group can form alkyl, aryl or aryl-alkyl thiazolidinone

(III). The oxygen attached to C-2 would make 2,4 - thiazolidinedione (IV).

O~):o (I) (II) (IV)

Sulfur atom attached at C-2 makes rhoda nine (V) and imino group

form 2-imino-4-thiazolidiones (VI), which is known as pseudo-thiohydantoin.

(V) (VI)

2-Sulfanylacetic acid has been recognized as a primary product of

hydrolysis of 3-phenyl-2-phenylimino-4-thiazolidinone. 13·'5 Hydrazone

derivatives of 4-thiazolidinones (VII) have been obtained by the

condensation of thiosemicarbazones and monochloroacetic acid. These

compounds were screened for antitubercular activity and maximum activity

has been observed when R, = H, R = 2-hydroxy phenyl.'6

Because of similar study of 4-thiazolidinones with an acid, it was

observed that actithiazic acid (VIII) is an antibiotic, isolated from a species of

streptomycin. It has high specific in vitro activity against Mycobacterium

tuberculosis, but is inactive in vivo, probably due to antagonisation by biotin

(IX), which contains some structural features similar to actithiazic acid and

reverses the activity of antibiotic. 17

Preparations of 4-0xo-thiazolidines:

4-0xo-thiazolidines are synthesised by cyclisation of acyclic

compounds. The cyclisation method comprises of the formation of

intermediates, which are formed by the reaction between the atoms, which

are subsequently 1 and 5, 1 and 2 or 2 and 3 of 4-oxo-thiazolidine ring in

cyclisation process. Generally, an intermediate formed was not isolated and

is appropriately substituted alkanoic acid or its ester. The ring closure occurs

between the acid group and hydrogen attached to nitrogen between atoms

3 and 4 of the 4-oxo-thiazolidine ring. 5-Carboxy methyl dithiocarbamate is

cyclised to rhodanine, which is a monomolecular reaction. 18

1) Reaction with Schiff bases and a -mercaptoacetic acid

2) Reaction between acetyl thioacetamide and monochloroacetic acid.

Various N-substituted acetyl thioacetamides on treatment with

monochloroacetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate in refluxing acetic

acid, yielded 2-acetyl methylene-3-substituted-4-thiazolidinones (XI).2o

3) From dithiocarbamates and thiocarbamates.

Ammonium dithiocarbamates condense with glycidic ester to give

2-thione-3-substituted-5-( hydroxyalkyl )-4-thiazolidinones, wh ich a re readily

dehydrated in refluxing acetic acid to 2-thiono-3-substituted-S-alkylidene-4-

In an analogous series of reactions, the substitution of carbon

oxysulfide for carbon disulfide, in preparation of dithiocarbamates, yields

2,4-thiazolidinedione. 26 This procedure can be adopted for the synthesis of 3-

substituted 2,4-thiazolidinediones (XIV). 27

Alkyl thiocarbamates (xanthogenamides) react with a-haloalkanoic

4) From thioureas.

Substituted 2-imino-4-thiazolidinones (XV) are obtained in good yield

by the reaction of symmetrical or unsymmetrical thioureas with various

substituted or unsubstituted a-haloalkanoic acids, their esters, acid chlorides,

amides or carbamates. 32·39 The reaction proceeds through the formation of

isothiouronion salt (XV) which is the main product when temperature is

25-30 0c. Cyclisation occurs when the reaction takes place in refluxing acetic

acid, ethanol or benzene in presence of sodium acetate or pyridine. Instead

of a-haloalkanoic acid, other compounds capable of supplying the same

moiety can be used. Thiourea also reacts with a-hydroxy acids.

of 2-imino-4-thiazolidinone (XVII).40-42 Same compound (XVII) can also be

synthesised in good yield by refluxing equimolar amounts of substituted and

unsubstituted thioureas and maleic anhydride in acetone. 43-45

5) Reaction with alkali thiocyanates.

The first 4-thiazolidinone reported by this method was 2,4-

thiazolidinedione that was synthesised by treating the product of the reaction

of ethylchloro acetate and KCNS with dilute HC!.48

19

The intermediate carbamoyl mercaptoacetic acid can be isolated by

the use of acid instead of ester. 49' 51 The reaction of chloro acetanilide with

thiocyanates leads to a variety of products, dependent upon the reaction

conditions and structure of components. 52

6) Reaction of a-mercapto alkanoic acids.

a-Mercapto alkanoic acids have been extensively used for the

synthesis of 4-thiazolidinones. The reaction of a-mercapto alkanoic acid with

compounds of the structure R-N=C=X is the general method of synthesis of

4-thiazolidinones. The reaction of a-mercapto alkanoic acid with

isothiocyanate form derivatives of rhodanine (XIXa),53 while isocyanate and

cyanamide give derivatives of 2,4-thiazolidinedione (XIXb)54 and 2-imino-4-

thiazolidinone respectively (XIXc).

Monforte P et al 64 have synthesised 4-thiazolidinones (XXII) and 2,4-

thiazolidinediones (XXIII) by reacting carbodiimides with a-mercapto

propionic acid. The acid reacts with one of the carbodiimidic >C=N groups to

give 3-substituted-2-imino-S-methyl-4-thiazolidinones. The related 3-

substituted-S-methyl-2,4-thiazolidinediones are also formed, except in the

reaction with dicycJohexyl carbodiimide.

(XXII) Where R = different aryl groups.

21

The Mechanism of Reaction:

We have found that in many instances, 4-thiazolidinones (XXIV) can

be prepared conveniently by the reaction of 2-sulfanylacetic acid with Schiff

bases refluxing in polor and non pol or solvent. By removing water

continuously, it was possible to perform the condensation reaction and to

determine the reaction time. In some cases, the Schiff bases were prepared

in the same solvent and when the calculated amount of water had separated,

2-sulfanylacetic acid was added and refluxing was continued. At the initial

stage, the addition of this group on the anil was usually accompanied with

the evolution of heat.

The reaction of 2-sulfanylacetic acid proceeds by attack of the acid on

>C=N- group of Schiff base on adding 2-sulfanylacetic acid to Schiff base6s

following the capture of a proton by nitrogen and subsequent cyclisation. In

several cases, uncyclised product has been isolated66-67 and heating open

chain compound with P20S in dioxan for 30 minutes effected the subsequent

cyclisation of certain compounds.

(XXIV)

Reactions of 4-0xo-thiazolidines:

The methylene carbon atom at position-S of 4-thiazolidinone

possesses nucleophilic activity and attacks an electrophilic center. The

reaction product loses water if it is possible to form as-unsaturated

derivative. The nucleophilic activity is influenced by adjacent carbonyl

group68 and by other electron-withdrawing group present at position-2.

22

(a) Aldol condensation with aldehyde and ketone.

The aldol condensation with aldehydes and ketones has attracted more

attention, followed, if possible, by loss of water. The product of the reaction

contains a,{3-unsaturated carbonyl group.

Where R1 = -SCCI), X = 0, R2 and R) = alkyl groups.

Various bases have been tried/9-7s out of which sodium ethoxide in

ethanol, sodium acetate in benzene or acetic acid are frequently giving good

yields. 76-77

(b) Reaction with diazonium salt.

Diazo salts undergo coupling reaction with 5-methyl group of

rhoda nine and 2,4-thiazolidinediones. 78 Under Meerwein conditions,

2-arylimino-4-thiazolidinones and diazonium salts produce, in the presence

of sodium acetate and cupric chloride, 2-arylimino-5-aryl-4-thiazolidinones in

60 to 80% yield. 79 The reaction has been used to introduce arsenophenyl

group in the 5-position. 8o

(c) Reaction with ortho esters.

Ortho esters react with active methylene group using acetic anhydride

frequently as a condensing agent, to form 5-(1-alkoxy alkylidine)

derivatives. 81

23

(d) Friedel-Craft reaction.

Friedel-Craft reaction with 5-arylidene-4-thiazolidinones using benzene

and anhydrous aluminium chloride as reported by Snider R H et al 82 give

rhodanine and triphenyl carbinol.

(e) Oxidation of 4-thiazolidinones.

Nitric acid breaks down the ring under drastic conditions. Hydrogen

peroxide in acetic anhydride and acetic acid forms sulfone (XXV) from 2,3-

dialkyl / 2,3-diaryl-4-thiazolidinones. 83 The same could be obtained by

potassium permanganate in aqueous acetic acid solution at 30-35 ac. 84

dioxides undergo reduction with lithium aluminum hydride, leading to the

formation of corresponding thiazolidinones (XXVI). However, reduction with

lithium aluminum hydride by refluxing in ether breaks down the heterocyclic

SECTION: II

STUDIES ON 2-0XO-AZETIDINES.

Introduction:

The j3·lactam antibiotics comprise of two groups of therapeutic agents

of considerable clinical importance, the penicillins and cephalosporins. The

j3-lactam antibiotics inhibit bacteria exhibiting activities, which differ in

pattern and intensity. In general, they exert their biological effect by

interfering with the synthesis of essential structural components of the

bacterial cell wall. These components are absent in mammalian cells so that

synthesis of bacterial cell-wall structure can be inhibited with little or no

effect on mammalian cell metabolism.

It is over sixty years since Sir Alexander Fleming observed antibiosis

between a penicillium mould and bacterial cultures and gave the name

penicillin to the active principle. Although it was proposed in 1943 that

penicillin contained a j3-lactam ring, this was not generally accepted until an

X-ray crystallographic determination of the structure had been completed.

Discovery of penicillin in 1929 proved to be an immense turning point in the

history of chemotherapy. It opened up the way for modern chemotherapy

and led to a rapid development in the chemistry and manufacture of

antibiotics, thereby contributing to saving the lives of thousands of people by

facilitating the struggle against bacterial infection.

In addition, these antibiotics tend to be irreversible inhibitors of cell

wall synthesis and they are usually bactericidal at concentration close to their

bacteriostatic levels. As a consequence, these types of drugs are widely

used for treating bacterial infections and are regarded as highly effective

antibiotics with low toxicity. Interest in the synthesis and chemistry of

j3-lactams has been greatly accelerated since the discovery of penicillin.

52

2-0xo-azetidine and its derivatives are used as antibiotics i.e.,

penicillins, ampicillin, amoxycillin, cephalosporins, nocardicins, thienamycins,

etc. This four-member ring has inspired scientists as well as synthetic

organic chemists to develop more potential antibiotic drugs having J3-lactam

moiety.

• Penicillin is one of the most important antibiotics. It is derived from a

number of penicillium molds commonly found on breads and fruit. The

mechanism of action for the penicillins is the inhibition of cell wall

synthesis during the reproductive phase of bacterial growth and it is one

of the most effective and least toxic of the antimicrobial agents.

Penicillin is effective in the treatment of :

• Bacterial endocarditis and pneumococcal infections.

• Hemoiytic streptococcai infections.

• Clostridial infections such as gas gangrene.

• Anaerobic streptococcai infections, Anthrax.

• Vincent's angina, Syphilis and Rheumatic heart fever.

Mechanism of Action:

Beta-Iactam antibiotics inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis. The drugs

cause nicks in the peptidoglycan net of the cell wall that allow the bacterial

protoplasm to "flow" from its protective net into the surrounding hypotonic

medium. Fluid accumulates in the naked protoplast, as the cell now devoid of

its wall is called, and it bursts resulting in death of the organism.

Chemistry:

When one of the four methylenes of cyclobutane is replaced by >NH,

the heterocyclic compound, is known as "AZETIDINE". Azetidine is the name

given to the completely saturated four-member nitrogen containing

compound, it is also designated as trimethyleneimine.

53

Azetidines were first synthesized in 1888 by the internal cyclisation of

y-bromopropylamine.

Br~NH2 Alkali

-HBr

Although azetidines were first prepared in 1888, this division of small

ring, nitrogen heterocyclic has been the least studied. The main reason for

the scarcity of information is that, in many instances, the methods used to

prepare azetidines give relatively a poor yield. In the last two decades,

however, some important progress has been made towards more productive

synthesis of these compounds. And the test in the relationship between ring

size and reactivity has stimulated these recent developments in the

investigation of four member cyclic imines. Also the discovery of naturally

occurring azetidine-2-carboxylic acid,l which has shown some unique and

potentially useful biological activity'·4 has stimulated interest in the

azetidines field. If an adjacent methylene (-CH,-) of azetidines is converted

into a ketone (>C=O), the resulting compound is known as 2-oxo-azetidine

or 2-azetidinone. It is also known as il-Iactam.

Several special and unique methods were developed to build-up this

cyclic amide which is very susceptible to reactions involving the carbonyl

group.

Preparations of 2-0xo-azetidines:

J3-Amino propionic acid does not yield J3-lactam, while cyclic derivatives

of such acid can easily be transformed into heterocycles by simple heating.

The success of this method has been attributed to the intermediatory of

hydroxy ketone acetenesS·6 as shown in the following chemical reaction:

The reaction of J3-amino acid esters with Grignard reagent is often

employed to prepare J3-lactams. J3-Propiolactam can be synthesised by

reaction between H2N-CH 2-COOEt and 2,4,6-trimethyl C6H,-MgX in ether at

0-25 0c. Here MeMgX can also be used.B

Gillman H et al9 chose the Reformatsky reaction for the preparation of

13-lactam. In this reaction, a mixture of ethylbromo acetate and zinc was

added to the anil linkage of benzalaniline to give 56% yield of 1,4-diphenyl

13-lactam.

Another new synthesis by base catalyzed ring closure of N-substituted

diethyl chloroacetamido malonates and intermolecular Michael-type addition

of substituted acyl amides was proposed by Sheehan J C et al.lO In this

synthesis, the amide linkage is formed first and the four member 13-lactam

ring is then made by establishing carbon-carbon bond.

A new synthesis has been developed which furnishes p-Iactam bearing

an amino function alpha to the lactam carbonyl by interaction of 2-(1,3-

dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)acetylchloride and Schiff base of benzalaniline in the

presence of triethylamine.

a-Azido-i3-lactams were synthesised by Bose A K et al. 14 These were

obtained from the reaction of a-azido acid chloride with imines. The reaction

mechanism is as under:

They showed that the slow addition of azidoacetyl chloride to a

solution of benzalaniline and Et3N in CH 2CI 2 favored cis product while the

trans product was favored when the Et3N was added to a mixture of Schiff

base and azidoacetyl chloride. Ulrich H'S showed that chloro and

f1uorosulfonyl isocyanate even reacted with a number of olefins to form 1,2-

dipolar addition products. Generally, the reaction proceeds to form both, the

initial cyclic intermediate as well as the straight chain isomer.

Calanda-Stiftung17 prepared 4,4-disubstituted azetidin-2-ones by (a)

the reaction of an ester of l3-amino carboxylic acid with an alkyl Mg halide,

(b) the reaction of halide of l3-amino carboxylic acid with tertiary organic

base, (c) heating N-alkanoyl derivative of l3-amino carboxylic acid to 150-

Where R, = hydrocarbon radical, R2 = cycloalkyl or aryl, R3 = H, alkyl or

alkenyl of 6 or less carbon, R., = H or alkyl of 6 or less carbon atoms.

The reaction involves treatment of an aziridine derivative with lithium

iodide followed by treating the reaction mixture with nickel tetra carbonyl and

finally addition of solid iodine. 1-benzyl-2-methylaziridine under these

conditions gives 1-benzyl-4-methyl-2-azetidinone in 50% yield. It is noticed

that the less substituted C-N bond is carbonylated.

The recent discoveries of 6-amino penicillanic acid derivative (I) on

one hand and cephalosporin (II), on the other hand, have resulted in a flow

of new [j-Iactam antibiotics having a versatility that was not possible a

decade ago. The penicillin are [j-Iactam thiazolidines and in cephalosporin,

the lactam ring is fused to dihydrothiazine ring.

[j-Lactam drugs are still the most widely prescribed antibiotics in

medicine. Maffii G et al 19 synthesised some [j-Iactams and evaluated for

pharmacological activity. The ethyl derivative is more effective. The

compound is similar to phenobarbital in its action on mice, rats and rabbits

but differs somewhat in dogs. In further study Maffii G20 determined

60

anticonvulsant activity of some substituted p-Iactams. He further confirmed

that the substances had general depressant action on the nervous system as

manifested in the various tests. He showed that the simultaneous presence

of one aromatic and one aliphatic radical at substituent position is conducive

to high activity. Maher F EI-zohry et al21 have prepared some new

quinazoline base spiroazetidinone derivatives.

Bose A K et al 22 have evaluated antibacterial activity of p-Iactams.

They prepared nearly 16 p-Iactams, out of which seven were active in vitro

against a variety of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria at minimum

inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 25-100 flg/ml against Brucella melitensis.

Gluditta A et al 23 synthesised some inorganic derivatives of p-Iactams.

They are used as enzyme (brain & heart) inhibitors and central nervous

system active agents. 3-Chloro-2-oxo-azetidine derivatives have been

prepared by condensation of chloroacetic acid, dichloroacetic acid, 2-chloro­

propanoic acid or 2-bromopropanoic acid with Schiff bases in N,N-dimethyl

moiety as possible antibacterial. They have synthesised some 1"-(4-aryl- (2',

4'-bithiazol-2'yl)-4'-aryl)-2"-azetidinones. The compounds were tested

against E.coli, S.aureus and P.aeruginosa. Few compounds showed good

activity against S.aureus and P.aeruginosa. Chauhan N A28 reported 1A­

diaryl-3-chloro-2-azetidinones as antimicrobial agents. Compounds showed

promising activity against E.coli and S.aureus zone of inhibition varied from

28 to 38 mm.

Interest in the synthetic chemistry of p-Iactams has greatly

accelerated with the discovery of Penicillin. In view of the powerful antibiotic

activity shown by monocyclic p_lactams,37.38 the synthetic organic chemists

62

are currently engaged in the design of strategies leading to substituted novel

j3-lactams.

The N-substituted-2-azetidinones can serve as useful intermediates for

the synthesis of other N-substituted and fused j3_lactams.39-4o These N­

substituted -2-azetidinones themselves possess good antimicrobial activity.

A number of substituted 2-azetidinones have been synthesised by

Sharma S D et al. 41 All the compounds were screened in vitro against number

of gram-positive and gram negative bacteria like B.subtilis, S.typhimurium,

E.co!i, NCTC-10418 and K. pneumonia at 100 ~g/ml concentration. Some of

the compounds inhibited the growth of S.aureus and E.co!i at this

concentration. Kalaiya S B et al 42 prepared some 2-azetidinone derivatives of

2-amino-S-benzyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles and tested for their antibacterial

activity. The results showed that most of the compounds showed good

activity against S. typhosa. Vansdadia R N et al43 prepared some p,p'-bis-(3-

chloro-4-aryl-2-azetidinone-1-ylcarbamoylmethoxy)diphenyl- su Iphones and

evaluated their microbial activity against S.aureus, S.citrus, E.co!i. and fungi

S.cerevisiae & A. niger. The results showed that most of the compounds

were moderately active (10-20 mm, zone of inhibition). They also worked

out the order of activity viz., 4-chlorophenyl, 3-methoxy-2-hydroxyphenyl,

and 4-hydroxyphenyl.

Shah V H et al44 have synthesised some 1-aryl-4-(o-hydroxy

phenyl!styryl)-3-chloro-2-azetidinones and tested them for antibacterial and

antifungal activities. They observed that some of the compounds showed

remarkable activity against S.aureus (antibacterial) and Aniger (antifungal).

Moreover, they also tested them for anthelmintic activity and got promising

results.

Ube Industries Ltd.,<s having 2-azetidinone nucleus marketed some

agriculture fungicides, effective against plant pathogenic fungi (e.g.

Piricu!aria bryzae in rice). Abdulla R 1"'6 prepared some herbicidal

azetidinones. These compounds completely killed sicklepod and pricklyalda

and effectively controlled nightshade. Some other scientists have also

prepared 2-azetidinones and evaluated their antibacterial and antifungal

63

activities:7-48 Khanna R et al 49 have prepared azetidinone derivatives of

phenothiazine and tested their antiparkinsonian activity at lOOmg/kg in vivo.

He took l-dopa and bromocriptine as standard drug. Results are as under:

(i) Antitremor activity: Out of 18 compounds, six compounds possessed

significant activity, better than standard drugs. Three compounds

antagonized oxotremorine induced tremor similar to i-dopa.

(ii) Antirigidity activity: Four compounds significantly antagonized

reserpine induced rigidity, better than i-dopa, while three compounds

exhibited antirigidity activity similar to i-dopa.

(iii) Antihypokinetic activity: Four compounds exhibited significant anti­

hypokinetic activity, which was better than that of i-dopa.

(iv) Anticatatonic activity: Four compounds possessed anticatatonic

activity better than i-dopa while four were similar to i-dopa. Only one

compound had anticatatonic action similar to bromocriptine.

and Firestone R A et alss which were inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase.

Some sulphonyl derivatives as reported by Yang S S et al s6 were found

useful as HMG-CoA synthesis inhibitors. Some of the compounds showed rcso

of 3.5xlO-8 M against HMG-CoA synthesis in vitro. Simple 3-alkyl-4-

azetidinones have been reported as potent inhibitors of Human Leukocyte

Elastase (HLE) by Hagmann W K et al. S7 They also reported that modified

form of these simple monocyclic j3-lactams led to the development of

substituted-4-azetidinones which inhibit HLE in a time dependent manner

64

and prevent HLE-induced lung damage in hamsters. A series of 3-acylidine-

4-methylazetidin-2-ones were evaluated for platelet aggregation inhibitory

activities. 58 Most of the compounds showed potent inhibitory activities

against rabbit platelet aggregation induced by ADP or collagen in vitro.

Dorn C P et al s9 prepared several substituted azetidinones and were

found as antiinflammatory and antidegenerative agents. Few compounds

inhibited human granulocyte elastase with IDso of 0.01 to 10 mg/ml. Patolia

V N et al60 prepared 2-(3'-chloro-3'-aryl-2'-azetidinon-l'-yl)-4-(2"-methyl-4"­

hydroxy-5-isopropylphenyl)-thiazoles. The compounds were screened for

antibacterial and antifungal activities at a concentration of 50 J.lg/ml against

E.coli, 5. citrus, 5.aureus, P. fluorescence, A. niger and C. albicans

respectively. Most of the compounds were found to be moderately active

(15-25 mm zone of inhibition) against all organisms.

Trivedi P B et al 61 have synthesised several phenothiazine substituted

azetidinones and screened for antibacterial (100 fl9/ml) and antitubercular

activities (0.03 flg/ml) against E.coli, 5.aureus and H37Rv of Mycobacterium

tuberculosis respectively. Some of the compounds showed very good activity.

They have concluded from the results that incorporation of groups like

bromo, iodo, dimethyl and dimethoxy in phenyl moiety increased the

antibacterial activity. Deshmukh M B et al 62 synthesised new 2-azetidinones

and reported its antimicrobial activity. Kulkarni Y D et al 63 reported some

new 3'-[a-(3-chloro-2-oxo-4-substituted phenyl / furfuryl-l-azetidinyl)]-2H­

SECTION: III

STUDIES ON THIOSEMICARBAZIDES, 1,3,4-

THIADIAZOLES, 1,3, 4-0XADIAZOLES AND

5-0XO-IMIDAZOLINES.

Introduction:

83

Thiosemicarbazides and its derivatives are extensively used in

medicine especially in the treatment of tuberculosis. The tuberculostatic

activity of thiosemicarbazones and related compounds had been first

observed by Domagk G et al,I The study of the structural activity relationship

(SAR) suggests that 4-acetylamino-benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone has

shown promising activity. This agent received extensive clinical trials and the

results sufficiently encouraged further investigation of its anti mycobacterial

activity. The parent compound thiosemicarbazide is tuberculostatic in vitro,

its derivative benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone is more active. Various

substituents in the benzene ring alter in vitro activity.

Thiosemicarbazones are markably tuberculostatic but not bactericidal

in vitro. Thiosemicarbazides have been found most inhibitory and they are

potential therapeutic agents for the disease due to Mycobacterium

tuberculosis and Mycoleprae. Many of these compounds inhibit the growth of

pathogenic tubercular bacilli in concentration of approximately 1 l1g/ml

producing morphological alteration In the organisms. Like other

tuberculostatic agents, thiosemicarbazone arrest but do not eradicate

tubercular infection in experimental animals. Clinical study revealed some

degree of effectiveness in pulmonary tuberculosis in man. In general, tibione

(4-acetamidobenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone) is less active than

streptomycin.

84

Thiosemicarbazones are well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract,

and large proportion is excreted in urine. Thiosemicarbazones derived from

aromatic aldehydes are potential therapeutic agents for the disease due to

Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycoleprae. 2 Mayers F P and Porter J R3

tested many sulphur containing organic and inorganic compounds for their

ability to serve as a nutrient for proteus moryanii. In comparison to others,

thiosemicarbazides have been found most inhibitory.

Thiosemicarbazides are useful as insecticides e.g. many

thiosemicarbazides like I-phenyl, 1,4-diphenyl, I-phenyl-4-o-tolyl, 4-a­

naphthyl, I-phenyl thiosemicarbazides have been found equal or better than

Na-fluorosilicate against screw worm larvae. 4 Donovick Ret als tested many

thiosemicarbazones and related compounds for their antitubercular activity in

mouse in which he showed that only p-substituted benzaldehyde

thiosemicarbazones have reproducible activity.

The development of acitivity is not dependent upon the sulfonamide or

sulphur nor upon the thiazole or thiadiazole but an open chain like

arrangement of Nand S atoms in thiosemicarbazones when suitably

substituted. Sulphur atom plays an important role because structurally

similar compound with absence of sulfur, like semicarbazone oxime,

hydrazone, azine and anil are inactive. 6

Thiosemicarbazides and its derivatives are frequently used in the

treatment of tuberculosis. These compounds were prepared by the method

given by Kazakov V Ya and Vastovoskii I Ya. 23 In this method, amine is

treated with carbon disulfide, CICH2COONa and N2H4 2H 20. The

thiosemicarbazides are either obtained during reaction or crystallization on

cooling of thiocyanates and N2H4 which also imparts corresponding thiosemi­

carbazides. 24

Vidya Joshi et al 25 have synthesised several N-2-diphenylhydrazine

carboxamide/carbothioamides from substituted phenylisocyanates/

phenylisothiocyanates respectively. These compounds showed antitubercular

and antifungal activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and

Candida albicans, T.mentagrophytes and T.rubrum respectively.

Yemni E et al 26 have synthesised 1-(3-hydroxy-2-naphthoyl)-4-

1,3,4-Thiadiazole

In 1882, Fischer described 1,3,4-thiadiazole for the first time but the

true nature of the ring system was explained in 1890 by Freund and Kuhn.

Interest was renewed due to the discovery of sulfa drugs in thiadiazole

series. The pharmaceutical line of interest has continued, and interesting

drugs have been introduced. The structure of 1,3,4 - thiadiazole is as under:

Methods for the Preparation of 1,3,4-Thiadiazoles:

1. Preparation of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles proceeds from thiosemicarbazide or

substituted thiosemicarbazides. Thiosemicarbazide itself was shown to cyclise

directly to 2-amino-S-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole with acid chloride.32

2. Hoggarth E33 has prepared a number of 2-amino-S-aryl-1,3,4-

thiadiazoles by using phosphoric acid as a dehydrating agent wherein

sulphuriC acid is found effective in these reactions.

Yadav L D 5 et al34 have observed that 1,3,4-thiadiazoles are

associated with a broad spectrum of biocidal activity35-39, possibly due to

1,3,4-0xadiazoless1.sa are known to exhibit a wide spectrum of

physiological properties like antitubercular, bactericidal, anticonvulsant,

diuretic, antiamoebic etc.

Natural products with oxadiazole rings are unknown, while many

substances with oxadiazole ring structure are used as therapeutically

important compounds. Though oxadiazoles are used as medicines, their

90

reactions and properties remain unsolved and more efforts are still required

to fill the lack of development of a commercial use.

In recent years, several workers have taken a large number of patents

on 1,3,4-oxadiazoles. This inspired several workers to a great significance in

chemistry of 1,3 ,4-oxadiazoles. A number of 1,3,4-oxadiazolin-S-ones and

1,3,4-oxadiazolin-S-thiones showed antitubercular activity59.65 and

investigated with regard to their mode of action. Some oxadiazoles have

been active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae. 66

It possesses some advantage over isonicotinic acid hydrazide. Antitubercular

activity of 2-(2-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-S-one has been described. 67

Oxadiazole derivatives which are derived from p-amino salicylic acid

have been extensively used as antitubercular agents. 6S-69 Vaidya V P and

Vagdevi H M70 reported 2-(2'-aryl-3'-acetyl-1',3',4'-oxadiazolyl)amino­

naphtho[2,1-b]furans. Synthesised compounds were screened for

antimicrobial, anthelmintic and analgesic activities. Oxadiazolin-S-ones and

oxadiazolin-S-thiones of p-amino salicylic acid are active as

antiinflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic agents with low irritant

properties and toxicity.7I-73 The SUlphonamide derivatives of 1,3,4-

oxadiazoles are established not only as bactericidal but also as hypoglycemic

agents.74-75 Hokfelt B et al 76 synthesised some substituted l,3,4-oxadiazole

derivatives and tested for hypoglycemic activity. It was observed that

benzene ring containing halogen, -CH3 or -OCH3 generally showed significant

hypoglycemic activity and found that the oxadiazole derivatives produced

greater reduction of blood sugar concentration in rabbits than thiadiazoles.

Wildersmith En prepared some antiinflammatory, antipyretic and

analgesic agents by converting the carboxyl group of other therapeutic

agents into an oxadiazolyl group. O'Neal J B et a178-79 have prepared

oxadiazole and thiadiazole derivatives and evaluated for oral hypoglycemic

activity in rats and dogs. Bahel S C et aI SO-S! have prepared 1,3,4-oxadiazole

derivatives. They pOinted out that due to a structural analogy between

oxadiazol-2-ones, oxadiazole-2-thiones and S-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole-

91

2-thiones might be biologically active. They further clarified that such

compounds have >NCS and C-O-C chains which are perhaps responsible for

their fungicidal activity. They synthesised a number of compounds and

evaluated against A. flavus and A. niger. They finally came to a conclusion

that substituted oxadiazole-2-thione derivatives possessed more activity than

the parent oxadiazole. Bajaj 0 P et alB2 investigated antibacterial properties

of some 5-substituted-l,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione derivatives against different

microorganisms like E.coli, S.aureus, S.typhos and B. megaterium.

Shahsafi M A et alB3 have synthesised some bis (1,3,4-oxadiazoles)

and antimicrobial activity of synthesised compounds was reported. Eid A I et

alB4 have prepared some 2,5-disubstituted -1,3,4-oxadiazoles and found

them as CNS active agents. Mishra H KBS has also reported some substituted

1,3,4-oxadiazoles as antibacterial, insecticidal and antiacetylcholine esterase

agents. Muscle relaxant and antitubercular activity of some disubstituted

1,3,4-oxadiazoles were reported by Swain A p.B6 Khandwala A et alB7 have

reported some 5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles for their antiallergic activity.

Antitubercular activityBB-I03 of some 1,3,4-oxadiazole compounds was

also reported. Ram V J et al l04 prepared some oxadiazol thiones and tested

for anticonvulsant activity. Bhargawa K P et alIos have reported some N­

substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles as potential anticonvulsant agents and

pointed out that mono-, di- and tri-methyl substitution in the phenyl ring

deer-eased the anticonvulsant activity. Several 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-

oxadiazoles have been synthesised and screened for their antiinflammatory,

sedative and analgesic activities on rats and mice with satisfactory

results.'06-1'0

STUDIES ON 5-0XO-IMIDAZOLES.

Introduction:

During the past two decades, the incidence of fungal infections,

especially involving immunocompromised patients, has increased

dramatically.120 In particular, some forms of dermatomycoses are the cause

of a great morbidity in patients receiving antineoplastic chemotherapy, under

going organ transplants, or suffering from AIDS. These infections are

produced by dermatophytes, a group of fungi that characteristically infect the

keratinized areas of the body. Although imidazole compounds such as

clotrimazole, miconazole, Ketoconazole (1 st oral drug, 1979), Lanoconazole

(Racemic, 1994), Flutrimazole (Racemic, 1995) and econazole have proven

to be effective for the treatment of dermatophytes, these infections are

frequently very difficult to eradicate,121 and more effective new topical

antifungal agents are still needed.

Imidazole derivatives are widely used in topical antifungal

chemotherapy because of their broad spectrum and high availability.122 It has

been recognized that imidazole antifungals act with at least two distinct

mechanisms. One is the inhibition of ergosterol biosynthesis at low

concentration below 10'6 M, which is responsible for fungistatic action. The

other is direct physicochemical cell membrane damage exerted at higher

concentration between 5-10 fl9/ml, which causes the fungicidal effect. 123

Since a high concentration is necessary for the latter effect, conventional

imidazole antifungals do not act as fungicidal but fungistatic agents under

therapeutic conditions.

105

Chemistry:

Imidazoles are a planar five-member heterocyclic ring system with

three carbons and two nitrogen atoms in 1 and 3 positions. In imidazolones,

like imidazoles (I), one of the annular nitrogen bears a hydrogen atom and

can be regarded as a pyrrole type 'N', the other resembles the nitrogen in

pyridine. Hence imidazolone is a molecule which indicates properties of both

pyrrole and pyridine. The contribution of one electron from each carbon and

pyridine nitrogen and two from the pyrrole nitrogen make up an aromatic

sextet.

Imidazoline-5-ones are derivatives of imidazoline with a carbonyl

group at 5-position. Substituents in the 2, 4 and 5 pOSitions may be varied,

but the greatest difference in structure and properties is exerted by the

groups attached to carbon atoms in 2 and 4 positions and to nitrogen atom

in 1-position. Another name, according to IUPAC is 2-imidazolin-5-one (II).

The discovery of the 2-substituted-2-imidazolones dates back to the

year 1888 when Hoffman A Wl24 prepared 2-methyl-2-imidazoline (Iysidine)

by heating N1-diacetylethylenediamine in a stream of dry hydrogen chloride.

Ladenburg Al25 prepared the same compound by fusing two equivalents of

sodium acetate with one equivalent of ethylene diamine dihydrochloride.

Imidazolel26-128 or iminazoline is an azapyrrole, the nitrogen atom

being separated by one carbon atom. This compound was earlier also called

as glyoxaline as it was first prepared in 1858 from glyoxal and ammonia.

The imino nitrogen is assigned position-1 while the tertiary nitrogen

atom position-3. The imidazole nucleus is found in a number of naturally

106

occurring compounds such as histamine, histidine, pilocarpine and allantoin.

Since imidazoles also exists in tautomeric forms, either of the nitrogen atom

can bear the hydrogen atom and the two nitrogens become indistinguishable

and the numbering becomes rather complex for mono substituted imidazoles.

These are 2-imidazoline (III), 3-imidazoline (IV) and 4-imidazoline (V).

Preparation of 5-0xo- imidazole:

Harhash A et al 129 studied the ammonolysis of oxazolone with liquor

ammonia. Tiwari A R and Jolly V S130 have obtained a-benzamido-3-

methoxy-4-allyloxy cinnamide by refluxing a suspension of azalactone in

ethanol and ammonia. Latta and Jolly131 have synthesised 2-phenyl-4-(3'­

methoxy-4' -hydroxy-5' -allylbenzylidi ne)- 5 -i midazolone by refluxing

respective azalactone in ethanol and liquor ammonia in the presence of

anhydrous K2C03.

Tiwari S Sand Satsangi R K132 have reported that substituted 5-

oxazolones on reaction with primary amines or on amination in pyridine

yielded the corresponding imidazoline-5-ones. Amides of u-acylamino acrylic

acids obtained from the azalactone and primary amine can be converted into

imidazolone (A).

The ring closure can be affected under a variety of conditions,

substituted anilides have been converted into imidazolones by the action of

phosphorus oxychloride. In order to get a variety of useful compounds,

reaction of azalactones have been extensively investigated with different

types of compounds such as alcohol,133 thiophenol,134 hydrazine hydrate, 135

aromatic amino acids, phenyl hydrazine 136 and ammonia. Now days, reaction

of azalactone with different aromatic amines have attracted a great

attention, because of the interesting nature of resulting compounds, their

applications and biological activities.

Different methods have been documented for the synthesis of

imidazolinones by several investigators in literature.'''!'''' As one of the

preparation describes the aminalion of azalaclone, ilnd therefore, it is

necessary to discuss azalactone chemistry. Plochi!4' prepared the first

unsaturated azalactone (oxazolone) by the condensation of benzaldehyde

with hippuric acid in the presence of Ac,O.

108

Mechanism:

Erlenmeyer et al 142 believed this synthesis to be a special type of

Perkin condensation in which reaction between aldehydes and acyl glycine

proceeds first followed by ring closure.

However, convincing evidence now indicates that aldehydes condense

under the influence of base with the reactive methylene group in the

azalactone which is formed by the dehydration of benzoyl I acetyl glycine,

when the latter is heated with AC20 in presence of sodium acetate.

Therapeutic Aspects of 5- OXo- imidazoles:

Imidazolone ring system is of biological and of chemical interest since

long. Srivastava V K et al '43 have reported a new series of biologically active

analogues of imidazoline-5-ones. The imidazolinones'44 are associated with a

wide range of therapeutic activities'45-'75 such as anticonvulsant, sedative

and hypnotic, potent CNS depressant, antihistamine, antifilarial, bactericidal,

fungicidal, antiinflammatory, MAO inhibitory, antiparkinsonian,

antihypertensive and anthelmintic. Parikh A Rand coworkers'76-'77 have

synthesised imidazolinones having quinoline at 2-position, L-base of chloram­

phenicol and phthalazine moieties at i-position. Parekh Hand coworkers '78

have synthesised substituted imidazolinones which have been shown to

possess good anticonvulsant activity and moderate antimicrobial activity

bearing pyrimidine '79 and s - triazine mOieties. '8o Recently several workers

have prepared some new imidazoline derivatives and reported their

antiinflammatory, herbicidal and hypertensive activities.'8'-'83

More recently, Bohmann C et al '84 have studied imidazoline derivatives

which effectively inhibit noradrenaline release in rat isolated kidney. Lacombe

C R et al '85 have studied the properties of imidazoline to stimulate insulin

release by hamster pancreatiC islets. In the present study, aromatic

aldehydes were condensed with benzoyl glycine to get oxazolinones. All

azalactones developed blood red colour on treatment with concentrated

sulfuric acid.

2-Methyl/phenyl oxazolin-S-one derivatives are also associated with

medicinal chemistry. Oxazoles are widely reported in the literature as

antimicrobial agents. Rich S and Horsfall J G'96 noted that an unsubstituted

nucleus is seldom active but the introduction of lipophilic substituents like

alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl very often induce activity. Pandey V K and Lohani H

benzylidine imidazoline-S-ones and screened for CNS activity and found that

compounds were non-toxic. Nagarajan K et al '98 synthesised some nitro

derivative of imidazoles having antiamoebic activity and have also

established structural activity relationship.

Dhaneshwar S R et al '99 have synthesised some Mannich bases of 2-

methyI/2-phenyl-4-(2-hydroxybenzyl id ine )-oxazolin-S-ones a nd anti m icrob ial

activity of the synthesised compounds was evaluated against E. coli,

S. aureus and C. albicans. Neomycin and Nystatin were used as standard

antibacterial and antifungal agents.
