Trang 11 The necessity of the study
Heterocyclic chemistry plays a very important role in organic chemistry Currently, the increase in the number of organic compounds is mainly due to heterocyclic compounds Researches on heterocyclic compounds synthesized from natural compounds in plant essential oils have attracted much attention of scientists These heterocyclic compounds have both specific structural parts of natural compounds and new structural components Therefore, they could be highly bioactive, and could be applied in pharmacy and medicine
Furoxan heterocyclic compounds (1,2,5-oxadiazole-2-oxide) have NO-releasing properties when they enter the human body NO molecules have effects on the nervous system that controls blood vessel elasticity Therefore, they are promising in treatment of cardiovascular diseases Currently, several compounds that can release NO, including either monocyclic compounds or heterocyclic compounds associated with the furoxan ring, have been used in clinical trials such as NO-aspirin, NO-steroid and NO-ursodeoxycholic acid
Compounds containing quinoline heterocycle have a wide range of bioactive activities Many
of those have been used as antibiotics, antibacterial drugs, antimalarial drugs, and some other derivatives have been used as anti-tuberculosis drugs Moreover, quinoline-containing compounds also have many applications in analytical chemistry metal analysis by photometric and fluorescent methods
Quinazoline and quinazolinone compounds have gained many attentions in medicine due to their wide range of biological activities Numerous quinazoline- and quinazolinone-contaning compounds have antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, antiviral and anticancer activity due to their inhibitory effects on thymidylate synthase, poly- (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and thyrosine kinase Currently, some antihypertensive drugs such as (1- (4-Amino-6,7-dimethoxy-2-quinazolinyl) -4- (1,4-benzodioxan-2-ylcarbonyl) -piperazine monomethane-sul fonate with brand name doaosinemesylate), obesity medication such as ((RS) -dimethoxy-2- [4- (tetra hydrofuran-2-ylcarbonyl) piperazin-1-yl] -quinazolin-4-amine brand name terazosine) and blood pressure medication, such as ( 2-[4- (2-furoyl)piperazin-1-yl]-6,7-dimethoxyquinazolin-4-amine with the commercial name prazosin) having a quinazoline structure have been brought to market
The previous furoxan, quinoline, and quinazoline heterocyclic compounds were mostly synthesized from products of the chemical industry, mainly from petrochemical technology The synthesis of those heterocyclic compounds from plant essential oil resources, which are renewable materials, is consistent with the green chemistry Current research directions still attract a little attention, therefore, the studies on heterocyclic compounds synthesized from plant essential oils are relatively rare

Microwave oven were used to perform the reactions: radiate the reaction mixtures with microwave for
1 minute each time, use TLC to monitor the reactions, and repeat the radiation After every 2 minutes, check the TLC until all the starting materials have been consumed, then stopped the reactions Spectral analysis showed that the products had the expected structures
A15 compound: The reaction of Ao with maleic anhydride was performed in ethanol in the presence
of concentrated H2SO4 as catalyst The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC which shown that the amount of product increased gradually After 8 h, there were no starting materials Let the reaction mixture cool down to room temperature The desired product was obtained as yellow needles,
The double bond in A15 has trans configuration which is different from the original cis configuration
of maleic anhydride This can be explained as followed: the carbonium cation rotates freely around the single bond, which helps the acylium ion to have a more stable trans configuration and it is more convenient to attack the NH2 group right next to the bulky furoxan group of A0
We expected the A15 amide reaction mechanism to be as follows:

Trang 8In H NMR spectrum of the amine A0, the chemical shift of the proton H3 is larger than that of the
proton H6 Interesting, in azo compounds, the chemical shift of the proton H3 is smaller than that of the proton
H6 This may be because in A0, the methyl group donates electron density by hyperconjugation to the C6
position, while in the azo compound, the diazo group N = N attracts electron density from the C6 position (I, C> + C) The chemical shift of the methyl protons at the C4 position of the furoxan ring (H10: 1.96-2.24 ppm) is smaller than that of the methyl protons attached to the aromatic rings (2.3 ppm) This may be due to the anisotropic effect of the N → O group This indicates that the N → O group is close to the methyl group but not
-to the phenyl group
In A0, the chemical shift of the C4 is smaller than that of the C6 but in the azo compounds, the
opposite was found This is due not only to the different electronic effects of the NH2 and –N = N- groups, but also to the bulky azo component that caused the furoxan ring to be perpendicular to the plane of the benzene ring which makes the effect of the +C effect of furoxan to the C4 position of the azo compound is no longer the same
as in A0

3.2 SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURAL STUDY OF THE SERIES B

a General scheme:
Scheme 3.4 Synthetic scheme of the series B
b Synthesis
The quinoline B1 was synthesized from A0 following the Döebner – Miler method The procedure
was improved from the traditional method as follows: the reaction was performed in toluene – HCl
heterogeneous system in which the actetaldehyde was replaced with paraldehyde The desired product B1 was
Trang 9obtained with 85% yield as white crystals B1 is insoluble in water but well soluble in common organic solvents
This is an important key substance, opening up a diverse synthesis of the derivatives containing both furoxan and quinoline heterocycles
The mechanism of the Döebner – Miler reaction is as follows: Paraldehyde is the trimer of acetaldehyde In acidic medium, paraldehyde is gradually decomposed into acetaldehyde which underwent the aldol condensation to yield crotonaldehyde Crotonaldehyde then took part in the reaction with amine and was converted to the quinoline ring
The B1 compound thus formed is a 2-methylquinoline compound which was oxidized to carbaldehyde B2 with SeO2 We optimized the reaction conditions by changing reaction temperature and time
quinoline-2-The results of the investigation summarized in table 3.16 show that the synthesis of quinoline-2-carbaldehyde B2 gave highest yield when performed at 90 °C for 4 h To obtain only B3 (which is predicted to be quinoline-2-
carboxylic acid) the amount of SeO2 was doubled and the reaction time was increased to 5 h at 100 oC
The esters from quinoline-2-carboxylic acid B3 are synthesized by the traditional methods

3.2.2 Structure of compounds in series B
- Main IR absorption bands of B1-B18 are given in tables 3.17, 3.20 and 3.24 The IR spectrum of B1 no longer
has absorption band of the NH2 group The IR spectrum of B2 has the absorption band of the aldehyde carbonyl group, substances B3 - B7 have the typical absorption bands for the acid and ester C = O groups (C = O ester >
C = O acid), the α, β-unsaturated ketones B12 - B18 have absorption band for C = O group in conjugation with
the C = C ethylenic group
Trang 10- The H NMR spectrum of B1 has three downfield protons with chemical shift greater than 7.0 ppm, while in amine A0 there are only two aromatic protons in the benzene ring with smaller chemical shifts The upfield range in the spectrum of B1 differs from that in A0 which has an additional signal with an intensity of 3H at δ=
2.61 ppm, proving that the ring reaction according to Doebner - Miller method has occurred, affording methylquinoline

Trang 11- The H NMR spectra of the compounds from B12 - B18 showed no signal of the aldehyde proton (typically at
about 10 ppm), and there were 10 signals of aromatic protons in accordance with the number of aromatic protons
in the predicted formula There are always two signal olefinic protons with coupling constant larger than 12 Hz
This indicated that the Aldol condensation between the aldehyde B2 and various ketones occurred and yielded
trans- products.+ When changing from aldehyde B2 to α, β-unsaturated ketone in general, the chemical shift of
both H7 and H4 was decreased
+ The chemical shift of H3 increased significantly in comparison to that in B2, except for compound B18, the chemical shift of H3 is almost unchanged compared to the original B2 aldehyde
+ The chemical shifts of H2a and H2b are abnormal Normally, for α, β-unsaturated ketone δ (Hα) <δ (Hβ) due
to – C effect of the C = O group Accordingly, for αβ-unsaturated ketone B12-B18, δ (2Hb) <δ (2Ha) But for α, β-unsaturated ketone B14, the HMBC spectrum showed the opposite: δ (2Hb)> δ (2Ha) (Figure 3.24, cross-peak
C3xH2a and pattern C2xH2b) We assumed that the –C effect of C = N in the quinoline ring is opposite to that
of C = C, which is the cause of the abnormal chemical shifts

3.3.1 Summary of series D
a Synthetic Scheme :
Scheme 3.5 Summary scheme of series D
b Synthesis
Acetylation A0 produced 3-methyl-4- (2-acetamido-4,5-dimethoxy-phenyl) furoxan Am The reaction between
Am and DMF-POCl3 (Wilsmeier-Haack agent) did not give quinoline type compounds as expected by Wilsmeier-Haack
method but heterocyclic quinazoline D1 was obtained The formation of D1 was explained as in scheme 3.6
Scheme 3.6 Explanation of the quinazolin D1 ring formation from Am
The quinazoline ring as shown in the scheme 3.6 above is an unprecedented reaction The right
conditions for this abnormal reaction were found to become a synthetic method of quinazoline D1 with the yield
of 64 % Interestingly, the reaction of quinazoline D1 with Na2S2O4 did not stop at reduction of nitro group into
amino group, as soon as it wasconverted to methylketone D2 as shown in scheme 3.7 The structure of D2 is
determined on the basis of analyzing its spectra, in addition, its structure was further confirmed by the reaction
of D2 with C6H5NHNH2HCl to create phenylhydrazone D3
Trang 13Scheme 3.7 The formation of D2 from D1
Interestingly, a yellow needle-shaped D4 compound was obtained by boiling D1 with 10%
NaOH solution in 95% ethanol after crystallizing The spectral analysis showed that D4 was
5,6-dimethoxy-2-methyl-3H-indol-3-one On the other hand, when boiling D1 with KClO3 in a solution of HCl at 50 °C, oxidation
product D5 as a white needle-shaped crystal wasobtained indicating that branch was oxidized
Because 4-acetyl-2-methyl-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline (D2) is a new ketone, it was further investigated
its reaction to aldehyde in presence ether HO- or H+ catalysts In acidic environment, condensation reaction
occurred to obtain 6 unsaturated α, β-ketones D6 - D11, while in alkaline environment, similar products were not
obtained However, in case of p-OHC6H4CH=O reaction with D2 in alkaline environment, product D12 was
obtained as an isoquinoline type compound.The formation of compound D12 from quinazoline D2 and
p-hydroxy benzaldehyde is unpredictable under the aldol-croton condensation reaction, This can be explained as
follows: When heated in an alkaline environment, D2 is hydrolyzed to break the pyrimidine ring to produce
ammonia, the ammonia will condense with the C = O group to form imine II The NH group of imine is added to
the C = O group of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde to form III which is protonized and then split the water to create IV
carbocataion The carbocation acts as an electrophilic agent that attacks the ortho position compared to methoxy
to create compound V, the carbonyl group of V is protonized to produce carbocationVI and then continue to
separate H+ from to form compound D12 according to the scheme below:
Scheme 3.8 Reaction mechanism explains the formation of D12 from D2
