A new series of thiazolo [3,2-a] pyrimidine derivatives was designed and synthesized using 4-fluoroaniline and ethylacetoacetate as starting material. Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed by the rat paw edema method and antinociceptive activity was evaluated by thermal stimulus technique.

Antifungal tests were also performed.     

Hydrazonoyl halides as precursors for new fused heterocycles of 5α-reductase inhibitors

A new series of benzo[6,7]cyclohepta[1,2-d]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines 8a-l was synthesized via reaction of heterocyclic thione 4 or its methyl derivatives 10 with hydrazonoyl halides 5a-l. Also, reaction of compound 4 with a mixture of chloroacetic acid and aromatic aldehyde derivatives gave benzo[6,7]cyclohepta[1,2-d]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-3-ones 12-14. The microanalyses and spectral data of the synthesized compounds are in full agreement with their molecular structure.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of thiazolo-, oxazolo-, and imidazolo[3,2-a][1,8]naphthyridinecarboxylic acids

It is known that thiazolo[3,2-a][1,8]naphthyridine derivatives (3a) exhibit good antibacterial activity. Accordingly, several analogues of 3a, viz. oxazolo- and imidazolo[3,2-a][1,8]naphthyridine derivatives 3b and 3c, were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity in vitro and for inhibitory activity against DNA gyrase of Escherichia coli K-12 C600. Compound 3a exhibited antibacterial activity comparable to that of ofloxacin and enoxacin against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and displayed antibacterial activity superior to that of 3b and 3c. The antibacterial activities of 3b and 3c decreased in that order. DNA gyrase inhibitory activities of 3a-c in E. coli K-12 C600 paralleled their in vitro antibacterial activity. It was found that enhancement of the DNA gyrase inhibitory activity of 3a was dependent on a certain feature of the sulfur atom of the thiazole ring.

A series of 24 possible derivatives of 1 and 4 possessing diuretic and saliuretic activities are investigated for structure-activity relationships in light of Fujita-Ban model. The Fujita-Ban group contributions have been calculated for different structural variations on the parent ring 1a. It is observed that the hydrogenation of pyridine, [1,3]thiazole or [1,2,4]triazine rings on 1 or 4 decrease the diuretic and saliuretic activities.

Bispyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines showed superior antimalarial activity with respect to monopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines. The best activity was observed with bispyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines linked by a bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine. Moreover, it was observed that the presence of a methoxy group on the pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline nucleus increased the pharmacological activity. Drug effects upon beta-hematin formation were assayed and showed similar or higher inhibitory activities than CQ. A possible mechanism of interaction implicating binding of pyrroloquinoxalines to beta-hematin was supported by molecular modeling.
