The structure, fluorescence, biological properties and S(N)-methylation reactions of ten 1,1-alkyl/aryl-disubstituted 3-(acridin-9-yl)thioureas 4 have been studied. Various reaction conditions allowed to obtain corresponding S-methyl 5 and S,N-dimethyl derivatives 6 in good yields. Structure and stereochemistry of the synthesized products are demonstrated by ab initio quantum chemical calculations and NMR techniques including PDQF-COSY, selective INEPT and NOE-difference experiments. Remarkable upfield 13C shifts of resonance signals of carbons C-4a, C-10a adjacent to acridine N-10 are characteristic of hydroiodides in contrast to free bases. Z configuration in isothioureas 7 with secondary amino rest in relation to E configuration of isothioureas with primary amino rest is discussed. Of the obtained products, some isothiourea salts 6 exhibit more than 2 orders of magnitude higher intensity of fluorescence, using 9-isothiocyanatoacridine as a standard. The obtained isothiourea hydroiodides 5 and dimethylisothiourea iodides 6 show remarkable biological activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
对十个1,1-烷基/芳基-二取代-3-(吖啶-9-基)硫脲的结构、荧光、生物活性和S(N)-甲基化反应进行了研究。各种反应条件使得可以很好地获得相应的S-甲基衍生物5和S,N-二甲基衍生物6。合成产物的结构和立体化学通过ab initio量子化学计算和NMR技术进行展示,包括PDQF-COSY、选择性INEPT和NOE差异实验。与自由碱相比,吖啶N-10相邻的碳C-4a、C-10a的共振信号显著上移是碘化物的特征。讨论了次级氨基取代的异硫脲7与初级氨基取代的异硫脲的Z构型与E构型的关系。在获得的产物中,一些异硫脲盐6的荧光强度比使用9-异硫氰酸吖啶作为标准时高2个数量级。获得的异硫脲碘化物5和二甲基异硫脲碘化物6对Mycobacterium tuberculosis显示出显著的生物活性。
