Abstract. We direct for the synthesis of 1,6,7-trisubstituted-4-phenylthiazol-2(3H)ylidene)hydrazono)-methyl)quinolin-2-one derivatives by the reaction of corresponding thiosemicarbazones with 2-bromoacetophenones in presence of triethylamine at room temperature. The mechanism of the products was discussed. The structure of the obtained products was fully characterized using different spectral techniques including infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS) together with elemental analyses. The new synthesized compounds showed a moderate colon anticancer activity Keywords: 2-Bromoacetophenones; thiosemicarbazones, thiazoles; colon anticancer activity.

1. Introduction The cytotoxic activity of quinolone derivatives has become the source of new anticancer agents, which might also help addressing side-toxicity and resistance [1]. Moreover, the quinolone ring is considered an important structural unit in many anti-oxidant agents [2]. Synthesized 4-arylchalcogenyl-7-chloroquinolines were screened in vitro for antioxidant activity by previous publication which demonstrated that compound presented a potent antioxidant effect [3]. Thiosemicarbazones are a class of compounds which have enjoyed significant attention due to their broad-spectrum of biological activities, including antibacterial, antiprotozoal, antifungal, antiviral and antitumour activity [4]. Quinoline and related derivatives, on the other hand, are useful compounds with diverse pharmaceutical

applications, and some have even reached markets for treatment of various ailments [5]. The 2-oxoquinoline (2-OCQ), which belongs to a quinoline family, is an interesting naturally occurring scaffold to attach new moieties or bioactive groups. It has been widely used as a ‘parental’ framework to synthesize a variety of molecules with a wide range of biological

activities

such

as

and

antileishmanial activity [6-9]. For example, oxoquinoline-derived thiosemicarbazone I and II (Figure 1) were found to exhibit good antiproliferative activity against the HCT116 cell line [10].

Figure 1. Chemical structures of biologically active quinoline-derived thiosemicarbazone derivatives (I and II) based on 2-oxo-quinoline structural motif. Heterocycles bearing nitrogen, sulphur and thiazole moieties constitute the core for a number of biological interesting compounds [11,12]. The applications of thiazoles have found in drug development for the treatment of allergies [13], hypertension [14], inflammation [15], schizophrenia [16], bacterial [17], HIV infections [18], and hypnotics [19]. Moreover, thiazoles have been used for the treatment of pain [20], as fibrinogen receptor antagonists with antithrombotic activity [21] and as new inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase B [22]. A number of thiazole derivatives have been reported to possess significant and diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial [23], analgesic [24], antiinflammatory [25], antioxidant [26], anti-HIV [27], antiallergic [28] and anticancer activities [28].

Our research program has also dealt with the synthesis of various thiazoles via donoracceptor interactions [30-35]. Recently, we synthesized analogous derivatives of LY293111, a potent antagonist of the leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor, based on the synthesis of an amidinothiazole ring, connected with phenoxy group [36]. The combination in a single molecule of the quinolone and thiazole (active in relation to 36 many microorganisms) caused a significant retardation in the growth of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis H37Rv ATCC 27294 [37]. In addition it proved to be slightly active towards the main forms of malignant tumors in man: leukemia, lung cancer, large intestine, CNS cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer, kidney, prostate, and mammary gland [38]. In continuation to these efforts and with an objective to develop novel and potent therapeutic agents of synthetic origin, it was decided to synthesize certain thiazole derivatives and evaluate them for their anticancer potential. Most indicative is to design compounds having a combined of two structures; both as bioactive scaffolds; 2-quinolones and other contains azothiazoloidinone groups as bio active scaffolds (Figure 2). Activity against anticancer cell lines would expect to show remarkable activity.

Instrumentation

Melting points were determined on Stuart electrothermal melting point apparatus and were uncorrected. TLC analysis was performed on analytical Merck 9385 silica aluminum sheets (Kiselgel 60) with PF254 indicator. The IR spectra were recorded as KBr disks on Shimadzu-408 infrared spectrophotometer, Faculty of Science, Minia University. The NMR spectra were measured using a Bruker AV-400 spectrometer at the Karlsruhe Institut für Technologie (KIT), Institute of Organic Chemistry, Karlsruhe, Germany. Chemical shifts were expressed as δ (ppm) with tetramethylsilane as internal reference. The samples were dissolved in DMSO-d6, s = singlet, d = doublet, dd = doublet of doublet and t = triplet. Mass spectrometry were recorded on a Varian MAT 312 instrument in EI mode (70 eV), at the Karlsruhe Institut für Technologie (KIT), Institute of Organic Chemistry, Karlsruhe, Germany. 2.2.

Scheme 1. Synthesis of 2-quinlonylthiosemicarbazones 5a-g

Upon refluxing of aniline derivatives 1a-g with phosphorous pentaoxide, phosphoric acid and diethyl malonate at 220 ºC, cyclization to quinolones 2a-g occurred [44]. Heating gently of 2a-g with chloroform and 15% NaOH afforded the corresponding 4-hydroxy-2oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carbaldehydes

3a-g.

Refluxing

with

thiosemicarbazide 4 in presence of few drops of glacial acetic acid as a catalyst gave the corresponding thiosemicarbazones 5a-g (Scheme 1). The target compounds 1,6,7trisubstituted-4-hydroxy-3-((E)-((Z)-(4-phenylthiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)hydrazono)methyl)quinolin-2(1H)-ones 7a-g were synthesized in 82-85 % yield by treatment of different thiosemicarbazones 5a-g with 2-bromoacetophenones (6) at room temperature in the presence of triethylamine (Scheme 2).

Scheme 2. Synthesis of 1,6,7-trisubstituted-4-hydroxy-3-(4-phenylthiazol-2(3H)ylidene)hydrazono)methyl)quinolin-2(1H)-ones 7a-g The suggested mechanism for the formation of thiazoles 7a-g was based upon attacking of the thione-lone pair to the α-bromo-C in 6 (Scheme 3). That was followed by salt formation as in intermediates 8a-g. Subsequently, H transfer in 8a-g followed by internal nucleophilic attack of nitrogen lone-pair on the carbonyl carbon to form intermediates 9a-g. Which upon elimination of a water molecule afford the thiazoles 7a-g (Scheme 3).

Scheme 3. Suggested mechanism showed the formation of compounds 7a-g The fragmentation pattern of mass spectrum of 7a is in full agreement with the structure, where it gave the molecular ion peak at m/z = 362 which is in accordance with the molecular weight of 7a. In addition to two fragmentations at m/z = 288 and 273 which are related to both (M+- C6H42· ) and (M+- C6H5N2· ), respectively (Figure 3).

H NMR of compound 5a-g

The 1H NMR spectra of compounds 5a-g showed three δ values for NH and NH2 protons. For example, the 1H NMR of compound 5e revealed δH 11.65 for NH-quinolone, 11.51 for NH-thioamide and 8.14 for NH2-thioamide. It was previously reported that there is an intramolecular hydrogen bond in case of compounds having thiosemitcarbazones structures [45]. In our case, the presence of E- and Z-configuration is found (Figure 4) and that was confirmed by the appearance of the azomethine protons as a broad singlet (see the experimental section).

5. Conclusions This study reports facile synthesis of novel thiazole derivatives with a good yields through the

23

reaction

of

2-((4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)methylene)-hydrazine-

carbothioamides 5a-g with 2-bromoacetophenone 6. The structure of the isolated compounds was proved by spectral data and elemental analyses. The antiproliferative activity of the thiazoloquinolone derivatives 7a-e,g exhibited weak to moderate activity against 60 panel cancer cell line, while compounds 7a,d revealed remarkable activity against colon carcinoma HCT-15 and compound 7d against lung cancer NCI-H322M.

Dear Editor Our recent interest has been directed towards the synthesis of quinolones and thiazoles. The main aim is, the synthesize heterocycles of biologically and pharmaceutically important. Therefore, we synthesized of 1,6,7-trisubstituted-4-phenylthiazol-2(3H)ylidene)hydrazono)-methyl)quinolin-2-one derivatives. The structure of the obtained products was proved using different spectral techniques including infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS) together with elemental analyses. The anticancer activity of the new synthesized compounds was, then investigated.
