Abstract

N'-[-1-phenylethylidene] pyridine-4-carbohydrazide (3a-f) were prepared by reacting with substituted acetophenone and iso-nicotinic acid hydrazide and were reacted with Phosphorous oxy chloride and Dimethyl formamide to yield 3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (4a-f). Solution of substituted acetophenone and Pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde were reacted to obtain 1-phenyl-3-[3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] prop-2-en-1-one (5a-f). To Synthesize 5, 3'-diphenyl-1', 2-diisonicotinoyl-3, 4-dihydro-1'H, 2H-3, 4'-bipyrazole (6a-f), 1-phenyl-3-[3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] prop-2-en-1-one was reacted with iso-nicotinic acid hydrazide. Moreover, the compounds revealed antimicrobial activity together with significant antifungal activities to some extent. Compound 6f with methoxy substitution, was found to be the most potent compound of the series with antifungal activity comparable to the standard drug, Fluconazole, against A. niger. It was followed by compounds 6b and 6c which depicted significant activity against C. albicans and A. niger. Other compounds in the current research have shown moderate activity against tested antibacterial and antifungal strains.

INTRODUCTION

Antifungal and antibacterial activities of Bipyrazole derivatives are most rapidly studied and some of them are in clinical practice as antimicrobial agents. Bipyrazole derivatives are an important class of heterocyclic compounds and many of them are reported to have the broad spectrum of biological activities. In the present study, Bipyrazole derivatives have been undertaken as target heterocyclic nucleus because of their remarkable pharmacological activities reported so far. Bipyrazole derivatives have been reported to possess potential antitumor [1], anti-inflammatory [2-4], antimicrobial [5], cytotoxic [6, 7], antiallergic [8], cardiovascular [9], and diuretic [10] activities. Bipyrazoles were also found to have useful as insecticidal [11], herbicidal [12] and fungicidal [13-15] activity in the photographic and paint industry. Bipyrazole derivatives were also used as new class of supramolecular complexes, organometallic cage-like structures and self-assembling metallomacrocycles with Bipyrazole ligands that are promising as catalysts, molecular mimics, molecular magnetic devices and sensors [16-18]. The Bipyrazole derivatives were applied as efficient ligands in the palladium-catalyzed C-O and C-N cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides with primary alcohols and with urea derivatives, respectively [19-23].

Microwave irradiation in solvent free conditions has well demonstrated its utility as the energy source in many organic reactions including cycloadditions. In this study, we have used this microwave assisted synthesis for synthesizing some newer derivatives of bipyrazole and thereafter evaluating their biological activities over selected microbial strains. For biological activity evaluation, both antibacterial and antifungal activities have been undertaken.

Synthesis of target compounds

The title compounds were prepared in the following steps: [24-26]

General procedure for synthesis of Synthesis ofN'-[-1-phenylethylidene] pyridine-4-carbohydrazide ( 3a-f)

A solution of isoniazide (0.01 mole) and acetophenone/substituted acetophenone (0.01 mole) in ethanol (15 ml) with a few drops of glacial acetic acid was irradiated under microwave irradiation for 2 to 3 minutes (Scheme 1) The reaction mixture was cooled. The solid that separated on cooling was filtered, washed with cold ethanol, dried and recrystallized from chloroform.

2.2.2 Synthesis of 3-(4’-substituted) phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (4a-f)

To the Vilsmeir Haack complex, prepared from Dimethyl formamide (10 ml) and Phosphorous oxy chloride (0.012 mole) at 0°C, the carbohydrazide prepared in the above step-1 (0.04 mole) was added and the reaction mixture was subjected to microwave irradiation for 3-4 min. The reaction mixture was cooled and poured into ice-cold water. The product which separated on neutralization with sodium bicarbonate solution was filtered and recrystallized from ethanol-dimethyl formamide.

2.2.3 Synthesis of 1-(4’-substituted)-phenyl-3-[3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] prop-2-en-1-one (5a-f)

To a solution of same ketone which was used in the step-1 (0.01 mole) and the corresponding Pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde obtained from step-2, (0.02 mole) in dry ethanol (20 ml) taken in a Borosil beaker (100ml), a catalytic quantity of sodium hydroxide (1-2 pellets) was added and the reaction mixture was zapped inside a microwave oven for 30 seconds to 2 minutes (at 210 watts i.e. 30% microwave power) and then cooled in a ice bath. The product formed was filtered and washed with ethanol (5ml) followed by water till the washings are neutral. The purity of the compounds was checked by TLC using methanol: water (8:2, v/v) as solvent system.

2.2.4 Synthesis of5, 3'-substituted diphenyl-1', 2-diisonicotinoyl-3, 4-dihydro-1'H, 2H-3, 4'-bipyrazole (6a-f)

A mixture of chalcones as prepared in the above step-3 (0.001 mol) and isoniazide (0.001 mol) was zapped inside a domestic microwave oven for 8 to 10 minutes (at 640 watts i.e. 80% microwave power) in presence of piperidine as a catalyst. After cooling, the solution was poured on to crush ice; the product obtained was filtered and recrystallized from dichloromethane-methanol. The purity of the compounds was checked by TLC using methanol: water (8:2, v/v) as solvent system.

2.2.5 Characterization studies

Melting points were determined in open capillary lubes and are uncorrected. All the chemicals and solvents (ethanol and acetone) used were of laboratory grad and solvent were purified by suitable methods [27]. IR spectra (KBr, cm-1) were recorded on a JASCO FT/IR-410 spectrometer. 1H NMR spectra was recorded on Brucker 300 MHz NMR spectrometer (chemical shifts in δ ppm) using TMS as an internal standard. Mass spectrum was recorded on LCMS-2010A Mass Spectrometer. The purity of the compounds was ascertained by thin layer chromatography on aluminium plates percolated with silica gel G (Merck) in various solvent systems using iodine vapours as detecting agent. Reactions were carried out in a Daewoo KOG-370A domestic microwave oven at 2450 MHz.

2.3 Evaluation of antimicrobial activity by Kirby-Bauer Method

Mueller Hinton agar plates were prepared aseptically to get a thickness of 5-6 mm. The plates were allowed to solidify and inverted to prevent the condensate falling on the agar surface. The plates were dried at 37°C before inoculation. The organism was inoculated in the plates prepared earlier, by dipping a sterile swab in the previously standardized inoculum, removing the excess of inoculum by pressing and rotating the swab firmly against the sides of the culture tube above the level of the liquid and finally streaking the swab all over the surface of the medium 3 times, rotating the plates through an angle of 60° after each application. Finally, the swab was pressed round the edge of the agar surface. It was allowed to dry at room temperature, with the lid closed. The sterile disc containing test drugs, standard and blank were placed on the previously inoculated surface of the Mueller Hinton agar plate and it was kept in the refrigerator for one hour to facilitate uniform diffusion of the drug. Plates were prepared in triplicate and they were then incubated for 18-24 hrs. Observations were made for zone of inhibition around the drugs and compared with that of standard. All the compounds synthesized were tested for antibacterial activity against gram positive and gram-negative bacteria. Saturated solutions of the compounds were first studied for activity and the compounds with zones greater than 15mm were taken for quantitative studies.

2.3 Evaluation of antifungal activity

Sabouraud dextrose agar plates were prepared aseptically to get a thickness of 5-6 mm. The plates were allowed to solidify and inverted to prevent the condensate falling on the agar surface. The plates were dried at 25°C just before inoculation.

The organisms (Candida albicans NCIM 3102 and Aspergillus niger NCIM 596) were inoculated in the plates prepared earlier by dipping sterile swab in the inoculum, removing the excess of inoculum by pressing and rotating the swab firmly against the sides of the culture tube above the level of the liquid and finally streaking a swab all over the surface of the medium three times, rotating the plates through the angle of 60° after each application. Finally, the swab was pressed round the edges of the agar surface. It was left to dry at room temperature with the lid closed. Sterile discs containing the test, standard and blank were placed in the petridish aseptically. 10 mg / disc of saturated solutions was used.

Plates were prepared in triplicate and they were incubated at 25°C for 24-48 hrs, after placing them in the refrigerator for one hour to facilitate uniform diffusion. Observations were made for the zone of inhibition around the discs and compared with that of Fluconazole, the standard. All the compounds were tested for antifungal activity.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Synthesis

N'-[-1-phenylethylidene] pyridine-4-carbohydrazide (3a-f) were prepared by following the standard protocol (57) as shown in scheme 1 and were reacted with Phosphorous oxy chloride and Dimethyl formamide to yield 3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (4a-f). Solution of substituted acetophenone and Pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde were reacted to obtain 1-phenyl-3-[3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl-carbonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] prop-2-en-1-one (5a-f). To Synthesis of 5, 3'-diphenyl-1', 2-diisonicotinoyl-3, 4-dihydro-1'H, 2H-3, 4'-bipyrazole (6a-f) were reacted with1-phenyl-3-[3-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-ylcarbonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl] prop-2-en-1-one and iso-nicotinic acid hydrazide. For synthesizing pyrazole ring, the route of hydrazone formation has been undertaken because of high reactivity of phenyl (substituted) hydrazine with acetophenone. POCl3 based cyclization has been performed followed by subsequent carbonylation by Vilsmayer Haack reaction. The carbonylation has been performed in order to allow free carbonyl groups for further Claisen condensation. After Beavault Blanc reduction with Na and C2H5OH, incorporation of further substituted phenyl hydrazine makes it bipyrazole derivative with two substituted phenyl groups. The assigned structure and molecular formula of the newly synthesized compounds (6a-f) were confirmed and supported by 1H NMR, Mass spectra, and IR data, which was in full agreement with proposed structures.

The compounds were screened in vitro for their antibacterial and antifungal potential by disc diffusion assay against selected pathogenic bacteria and human pathogenic fungi. The Physical data of synthesized compounds are presented in Table 1.

Biological Activity

The antimicrobial activity was determined using disc diffusion method (30) by measuring the inhibition zone in mm. All the newly synthesized compounds, i.e. (6a-f) were screened in vitro for their antibacterial activity against two Gram-positive strains ( Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and two Gram-negative strains (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) at a concentration of 500 µg/mL. Antifungal activity was tested against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger at a concentration of 500 µg/mL. Ciprofloxacin (10 µg/disc) was used as a standard drug for anti-bacterial screening and Fluconazole (10 µg/disc) was used as a standard drug for antifungal screening.
