4-Quinazolinones: synthesis and reduction of prostaglandin E2 production
摘要:
We synthesized and evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of a series of 4-quinazolinone derivatives. Two approaches were used to yield the title compounds. A first group of quinazolinone derivatives was obtained by the appropriate substituted anthranilates. A second group of quinazolinone compounds was prepared through the benzoxazin-4-ones intermediate. The pharmacological results reveal that the synthesized derivatives exhibit a significant anti-inflammatory effect in an experimental ocular inflammation model. In fact, all the tested compounds lowered the prostaglandin E-2 (PGE(2)) production with respect to the control group (P < 0.05). The 3-cyclohexyl-6-chloro-quinazolin-4(3H)-one and 3-cyclohexyl-quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives were the most active compounds. These compounds significantly reduced PGE(2) levels even more than the reference drug tolmetin and significantly lower protein concentration and polymorphonuclear leukocytes number compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Therefore, these compounds may be useful to prevent ocular inflammatory reactions. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
A novel catalytic system is reported for the construction of quinazolinones via the carbon-supported acid-catalyzed cascade coupling of isatoic anhydrides with amides and aldehydes. Subsequent selective hydrosilylation of the quinazolinones using a hydrogen-transfer strategy was also explored to provide dihydroquinazolines with structural diversity. The developed methodology proceeds with a broad substrate
activated 4-oxoquinazolines with aryl and alkyl alkenes was demonstrated. When aryl alkenes are used as the substrates, the regioselection of the reaction can be fine-tuned by choosing a NHC ligand with appropriate steric hindrance to harvest branched adducts, while the use of a bulky NHC/alkyl aluminum cocatalyst system helps to steer the reaction towards linear products. For alkyl alkene substrates, Ni(cod)2

The synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-α]quinoxalines is of importance, because they possess a variety of biological activities, and interesting fluorescence/photophysical properties. Multifarious methods for the construction of pyrrolo[1,2-α]quinoxalines have been developed, but there remains no general means to exhibit broad substrate scope with high functional group tolerance under mild conditions. We report
