Abstract

1-[(Bezocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-thiourea (2) was prepared via condensation of 3-acetyl benzocoumarin (1) with thiosemicarbazide, Reaction of compound 2 with acetic anhydride and ethyl chloroacetate in the presense of fused sodium acetate gives N-triacetyl derivatives (3) and 3-[(bezocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-4- oxo-imidazolidin-2-thione (4).Treatment of 4 with aromatic aldehydes yielding the corresponding 3-substituted-4-oxo- 5-arylidene-imidazolidin-2-thiones (5a, b). Acetylation of compounds 4 and 5 with acetic anhydride afforded the corresponding 1-acetyl-3-substituted-imidazolidin-2-thione (6) and 1-acetyl-3-substituted-5-arylidene-imidazolidine-2- thiones (7a, b), respectively. Acetylation of 4 with acetic anhydride in presence of fused sodium acetate gives 1, 5- diacetyl-3-substituted-imidazolidin-2-thione (8). The mass spectral fragmentation patterns of some prepared heterocyclic benzocoumarin derivatives have investigated in order to elucidate the structure of the synthesized compounds. The biological activity studies of heterocyclic benzocoumarins were carried out against antioxidant and antitumor activities.

INTRODUCTION

The coumarins that were studied have divers biological properties1-5 and various effects on the different cellular system. A lot of biological parameters should be evaluated to increase our understanding of mechanisms by which these coumarins act. Coumarins have important effect in plant biochemistry and physiology, acting as antioxidant. Enzyme inhibitors and precursor of toxic substances. The coumarins have long been recognized to possess antiinflammatory, antioxidant, antiallergic, antithrombotic, antiviral, and anticarcinogentic activities. This paper describes the synthesis of some heterocyclic benzocoumarin derivatives from condensation of 3-acetyl benzocoumarin with thiosemicarbazide in acetic acid. The electron impact (EI) ionization mass spectral fragmentation of the prepared compounds is also described. These benzocoumarinyl heterocyclic compounds were investigated for antioxidant and antitumor activity.

II-RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

II-1)-CHEMISTRY

3-Acetylbenzocoumarin (1) was prepared from 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde and ethyl acetoacetate according to a literature method. Condensation of compound 1 with thiosemicarbazide under reflux in acetic acid produced the 1- [(bezocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-thiourea (2). Acetylation of thiourea derivatives (2) with acetic anhydride under reflux led to the formation 1-acetyl, 1-[(benzocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-3, 3-diacetyl thiourea (3, Scheme 1). Treatment of thiourea derivatives (2) with ethyl chloroacetate in presence of fused sodium acetate in acetic acid under reflux, yielded the corresponding 3-[(benzocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-4-oxo-imidazolidin-2-thione(4). Condensation of imidazolidin-2-thione derivatives (4) with aromatic aldehyde (namely, benzaldehyde and 4- hydroxybenzaldehyde) in presence of piperidine under fusion led to the formation of 3-[(benzocoumarinylethylidene) amino]-4-oxo-5-arylidene-imidazolidin-2-thiones (5a, b). Acetylation of substituted imidazolidin-2-thione derivatives (4 and 5) with acetic anhydride under reflux led to the formation 1-acetyl-3-[(bezocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-4-oxo-imidazolidin-2-thione (6) and 1-acetyl-3- [(benzocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-4-oxo-5-arylidene-imidazolidin-2-thiones (7a, b), respectively. 1, 5-Diacetyl- 3-[(benzocoumarin-3-ylethylidene)amino]-4-oxo-imidazolidin-2-thion (8) was prepared via acetylation of imidazolidin-2-thione derivative (4) with acetic anhydride in presence of fused sodium acetate under reflux.

II-2)- MASS Spectroscopy

The mass spectral decomposition modes8-10 of various heterocyclic compounds containing benzocoumarin substitutuents have been investigated and fragmentation pathways have been suggested. Compounds 2 and 3 The mass spectrum of compounds 2 and 3 showed intense molecular peaks at m/z 311 and 437, corresponding to the molecular formula C16H13N3O2S and C22H19N3O5S, respectively. The molecular ion peak of compound 2 (Scheme 2, Figure1) underwent fragmentation to produce a peak at m/z 296 by losing NH group. The loss of thioformyl group (CHS) from the ion with m/z 296 resulted in an ion at m/z 251. The ion at m/z 251 underwent loss of nitrogen and ethylene molecules to give peaks at m/z 223 and 195, respectively. Also, the molecular ion at m/z 311 underwent loss of amino group (NH2) to give peak at m/z 295, which further broke to give an ion at m/z 294. The ion of m/z 294 beoke to give an ion at m/z 236 which lost isothiocyanate group (NCS). Ion of m/z 236 fragmented to give an ion of m/z 221 which lost an methyl group (CH3).

The ion of m/z 437 underwent fragmentation to produce a peak at m/z 395 by losing ketene molecule (CH2CO). The loss of ketene molecule (CH2CO) from the ion with m/z 395 gave an ion at m/z 353. The common peak at m/z 338 was also observed in this case which is attributed to an ion obtained by the loss methyl group (CH3) from the ion of m/z 353. The stable ion of m/z 338 underwent loss of isocyanate (NCO) and iminocarbonyl (NHCO) to give peaks at m/z 296 and 295, respectively. The fragment ions of m/z 296 and 295 further broke via pathway similar to compound 2 (Scheme 2)

The mass spectrum of compound 7a (Figure 7) showed the molecular ion m/z 480, corresponding to the molecular formula C27H18N3O4S. The loss of ketene molecule (CH2CO) from the molecular ion of 480 resulted in an ion at m/z 438, corresponding 5a.

III) - Biologicalactivity

III-1) - Antioxidant activity

The antioxidant of some prepared heterocyclic benzocoumarin derivatives (2, 4, 5, 6, 7a and 8a) were determined by the scavenging of synthetic radicals 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) in polar organic solvent11. A method solution of the test compounds was prepared. Absorbance measurements were recorded immediately with a Milton Roy spectronic 201 UV-visible spectrophotometer. The decrease in absorbance at 515 nm was determined continuously, with data being recorded at 1 min intervals until the absorbance stabilized (16 min). Tocotherol was used as a reference standard at the same concentration of used tested compounds. The absorbance of the DPPH radicals without antioxidant was also measured as control and 95% methanol was used as blank. All the determinations were performed in three replicates and averaged. % scavenging of the DPPH free radical was measured using the following equation:- DPPH radicals scavenging= [(Absorbance of control-Absorbance of tested samples)/(absorbance of control)]x100 Tested samples had been submitted for qualitative evaluation of the antioxidant activity. The provided samples had different antioxidant activity using DPPH radicals scavenging method as shown by the following table 1.

The drug vinblastine was used as standard. Inhibitory activity against breast carcinoma cells (MCF-7 cell line) hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG-2 cell line) was tested using different concentrations of the samples (50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, and 1.56 μg), and cell viability (%) was determined by colorimetric method. The 50 % inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the MCF-7 cell line was calculated from Table 2 and Fig 8, 9.

A mixture of 4(0.01 mol) and fused sodium acetate (0.05mol) in acetic anhydride (25 ml) was heated under reflux for 2-3 hr, then cooled and poured into water. The resulting solid was filtered off, washed with hot water, dried and purified with benzene to give 8 as colorless crystals, yield 51%, m.p. 156 ͦC.1H-NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 2.13(s, 3H, CH3), 2.30-2.36(br.
