The study of properties of 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles 3-ylthio]-1-aryletanones

 

Keywords:  1,2,4-triazole, physical and chemical properties

Introduction. Searching of the biologically active substances among heterocyclic nitrogen containing compounds causes a considerable interest and attention of many researchers. This is not surprising. Because an amount of highly efficient drugs always supplements with derivatives of such heterocyclic systems. Derivatives of 1,2,4-triazoles are characterized by a number of valuable properties, namely low toxicity, reactionary ability, expressed biological activity. Therefore, the combination of this kind of molecule with various sintons is an actual task for modern pharmacy and medicine.

The aim of our research was a purposeful search of new substances among 2-(1,2,4-triazoles-3-ylthio)-1-aryletanone, research of their physical, chemical and biological properties.

Materials and methods. Research of physical and chemical properties of obtained compounds performed, using methods that are listed in the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine. The melting point determined by open capillary method on the device PTP (M). The structure of compounds was confirmed by elemental analysis on the Elementar Vario L cube (CHNS) device, IR-spectra (4000 - 400 cm-1) were removed on a module of the ALPHA-T spectrometer Bruker ALPHA FT-IR. 1H NMR spectra of compounds were recorded, using a spectrometer «Mercury 400» (solvent - DMSO-d6, internal standard - tetramethylsilane). Chromatographic and mass spectral researches performed on the instrument Agilent 1100 Series LC/MSD System, ionization method - chemical ionization at atmospheric pressure (APCI).

Results and discussion. To the alkylation of 1,2,4-triazoles-3-thiones by α-halogen ketone is devoted several works of national and foreign authors.

Established that the reaction of 1,2,4-triazoles-3-thiones with α-halogen ketones proceeds exclusively using sulfur atom with a formation of 2-(1,2,4-triazoles-3-ylthio)-1-aryletanones.

During the alkylation of 4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazoles-3-thione and 4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoles-3-thione by α-halogen ketones in ethanol medium with an addition of equimolecular amount of sodium hydroxide occurs a formation of corresponding 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles 3-ylhtio]-1-aryletanones (Pic. 1).

Acute toxicity of the synthesized compounds

On the first stage of biological research of synthesized compounds examines mainly an acute toxicity, which significantly allows to reduce the number and intensity of the adverse reactions manifestations in terms of their clinical application.

The aim of toxicological research of compounds, derivatives of 1,2,4-triazoles, was identification of the character and severity of their damaging effects on the organism of experimental animals and evaluation of their safety.

Researches performs, using tabulated express-method of V. B. Prozorovskiy on white rats of the Wistar line.

Were used four groups of animals, 2 observations in each each with an additional application of previous and subsequent dose. Water-soluble compounds dissolved in 1.5 ml of purified water and injected in compliance with the rules of aseptic and antiseptic intraperitoneally. Water-insoluble compounds stabilized with twin-80 and introduced through a metal tube into the stomach. The observations performed after 24 hours.

On a quantity of the toxicity of these compounds, affect substituents with phenyl group of the ketone residue. Yes, substituents of 4-methoxy and 4-nitro significantly increase the toxic properties of 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles-3-iltio]-1-aryletanones. It should be noted that the increase in acute toxicity is observed at the recovery of 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles 3-ylthio]-1-aryletanones to 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyfenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles-3-ylthio]-1-aryletanoles. Also established that the transition from 2-[5-methyl-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole-3-ylthio]-1-аrylethanones to 2-[5-phenyl-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole-3-ylthio]-1-аrylethanones do not allows to clearly form the correlation dependence between the influence of radicals in fifth position of the nucleus of 1,2,4-triazoles and between a modification of the acute toxicity.

Conclusions

Established the optimal conditions of synthesis of 2-[5-R-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazoles-3-ylthio]-1-aryletanones with 4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-5-R-1,2,4-triazoles-3-thiones. It is proved that the major outputs of the reaction products were observed using ethanol as a solvent. Researched general physical and chemical properties of the compounds.
