| Download PDF Full-text (51 KB) Abstract: The synthesis and spectroscopic characterisation of some representative N -alkylsubstituted quaternary ammonium salts derived from benzothiazole, benzoxazole, benzoselenazole, indole and quinoline are described. These heterocyclic salts, bearing an activated methyl group in the 2-position in relation to the nitrogen atom and N -methyl, -pentyl, -hexyl and -decyl chains, are typical precursors of cyanine dyes.

In addition a dihydrotrihydroxyphenylphenalene was isolated from the resistant 'Pelipita' plantain variety in relatively high concentrations and its structure and relative configuration were assigned on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR and NOE information. This compound is considered a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of phenylphenalenone phytoalexins.

The by-products 3,6-dimethyl-1,4,7-octatriyne-3,6-diol (2) and 3-ethynyl-5-methyl-1,6-heptadiyne-3,5-diol (3) were isolated and spectroscopically characterized. A possible reaction mechanism for the formation of the byproducts is discussed.

The analogous 2-[(5,6-dimethoxybenzofuran-2-carbonyl)methylamino]benzoic acid was resistant to cyclization, whereas 2-[(6-methoxybenzofuran-2-carbonyl)-amino]benzoic acid underwent cyclization to the corresponding 3,1-benzoxazin-4-one.

The highest antituberculotic activity (72% inhibition) against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the highest lipophilicity (log P = 6.85) were shown by the 3,5-bistrifluoromethylphenyl amide of 5-tert -butyl-6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (2o). The 3-methylphenyl amides of 6-chloro- and 5-tert -butyl-6-chloro-pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (2d and 2f) exhibited only a poor in vitro antifungal effect (MIC = 31.25-500 μmol·dm-3 ) against all strains tested, although the latter was the most active antialgal compound (IC50 = 0.063 mmol·dm-3 ). The most active inhibitor of oxygen evolution rate in spinach chloroplasts was the (3,5-bis-trifluoromethylphenyl)amide of 6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (2m, IC50 = 0.026 mmol·dm-3 ).
