NonclassicalPschorr andSandmeyer Reactions in Pyrazole Series
The diazonium salt derived from 4-amino-N,1,3-trimethyl-N-(3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamide (14) was reacted with a mixture of CuSO4 and NaCl, with ascorbic acid as an initiator to afford the planar derivative 4,6-dihydro-1,4,6,8-tetramethyl-3-phenyldipyrazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-d]pyridin-5(3H)-one (16) and its unexpected isomer 4,6-dihydro-3,4,6,8-tetramethyl-1-phenyldipyrazolo[4,3-b:4′,3′-d]pyridin-5(1H)-one (17), as well as the epimers (3S,4S)- (or (3S,4R)-) and (3S,4R)- (or (3S,4S)-) 4-chloro-2,4-dihydro-1′,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-2-phenylspiro[pyrazole-3,4′(1′H)-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrazol]-6′(5′H)-one (18a and b, respectively). Epimers 18a and b were converted under basic c…
Effects of PCSK9 variants on common carotid artery intima media thickness and relation to ApoE alleles.
BACKGROUND: PCSK9 plays a key role in plasma cholesterol metabolism by modulating the expression of LDL receptors. OBJECTIVE AND METHODS: In this study we investigated the effects of two common polymorphism of the PCSK9 gene (E670G and I474V) on the intima media thickness of the common carotid artery and the possible relation with polymorphisms of apolipoprotein E in 1541 middle aged subjects selected from the general population enrolled in the PLIC study and confirmed the major findings in a second free-living population enrolled in the Ventimiglia study. RESULTS: 670G carriers showed significantly increased plasma total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and Apo levels B while no significant d…
Synthesis and biological evaluation of new indazole derivatives
New N-methyl and N-ethyl substitutions in the indazole nucleus are reported by reacting 3-(2-aminobenzamido)indazole and the appropriate trimethyl/triethyl orthobenzoate. Single crystal X-ray analysis confirms the N-ethylation position for the 3-(1-ethyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)-2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one derivative 3f. Compounds 11a-d and 3a-d were tested to evaluate their antimicrobial, their antiproliferative activity and their COX inhibitory activities showing scarce or moderately antiproliferative activity and some inhibitory activity against COX-1 and COX-2.
N-(4-Acetyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-N-methyl-2-(2-methyl-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-3-yl)benzamide
In the title compound, C29H25N5O3, the dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the pendant quinazoline ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.036Å) is 87.60 (17)°. The equivalent angle between the pyrazole ring and the phenyl group is 70.0 (2)°. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyrazole rings is 30.7 (2)° and overall, the molecular conformation approximates to a Z shape. A short intramolecular C—H...O contact occurs. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by Cπ—H...O-type hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.860 (3) Å], generating a three-…
Comparative studies of the Pschorr reaction in the pyrazole series. Access to the new dibenzo[e,g]pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3]diazocine system of pharmaceutical interest
The diazonium tetrafluoroborate 11 obtained from 2-amino-N-methyl-N-(1-phenyl-3- methylpyrazol-5-yl)benzamide was transformed in dry acetonitrile via an ionic or radical pathway. Differences were observed with respect to ionic or radical transformations in aqueous media of the analogous diazonium hydrogen sulfate 1 derived from the same amine. In acetonitrile solution, the ionic pathway was characterized by an increased yield of 1,4-dimethyl- 3-phenyl-pyrazolo(3,4-c)isoquinolin-5-one 4 and by the formation of its isomer, the new derivative 7,9-dimethyldibenzo(e,g)pyrazolo(1,5-a)(1,3)diazocin-10(9H)-one 12. When the reaction followed a radical pathway, the pyrazolo(3,4-c)isoquinoline derivat…
Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of 3-amino-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides
Abstract A series of new 3-amino-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides 10 have been prepared from commercially available phenyl isocyanate precursors 8 and 3-aminoindazole 9. Some of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antineoplastic activity against 60 human cell lines derived from seven clinically isolated cancer types (lung, colon, melanoma, renal, ovarian, brain, and leukemia) according to the NCI standard protocol. The test results indicated that 3-amino-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides 10 were endowed with an interesting antiproliferative activity. The most active compounds of this series, 10d,e, were able to inhibit cell growth of many neoplastic cell lines at concent…
(E)-2-{[1-(3,11-Dimethyl-4-methylene-10-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5,10,11-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]pyrazolo[3,4-f][1,5]diazocin-5-yl)ethylidene]amino}-N-methyl-N-(3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide
The central eight-membered ring of the title compound, C40H36N8O2, deviates from the ideal boat conformation because the bond between the exo-ethylene group and the adjacent N atom is twisted by 60.0 (4)° due to steric hindrance. Its adjacent benzene and pyrazole rings are oriented almost perpendicular to each other, making a dihedral angle of 85.8 (3)°. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by C(ar)—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.
Synthesis, benzodiazepine receptor binding and molecular modelling of isochromeno[4,3-c]pyrazol-5(1H)-one derivatives
Abstract A series of isochromeno[4,3-c]pyrazole-5(1H)-one derivatives 7b–h were prepared and tested at 10 μM for their ability to displace specific [3H]flunitrazepam from bovine brain membranes. The substitution pattern of the above derivatives was shown to influence the receptor affinity. The most active compound of the series was 7e, showing a 54% inhibition of [3H]flunitrazepam binding. Compounds 7a–d,i were compared with the known isomers chromeno[4,3-c]pyrazole-4(1H)-ones 14a–d,i, showing that the isochromene/chromene isomerism influences the activity.
1,4-Dimethyl-3-phenyl-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5(4H)-one
The title compound, C18H15N3O, is the product of the thermal decomposition of the diazonium salt derived from 2-amino-N-methyl-N-(3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide. It is characterized by a trans orientation of the methyl groups with respect to the tricyclic ring system. The molecule has a nearly planar phenylpyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5-one system, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.066 (2) angstrom for the O atom. The dihedral angle between the phenyl substituent and the heterotricycle is 67 (1)degrees. The packing is stabilized by C-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen-bond interactions, with the formation of molecular chains along the c axis.
