Abstract

:
The title compound, (2E)-3-(3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1-(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one (3) was synthesized in high yield by aldol condensation of 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene and 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde in ethanolic NaOH at room temperature. Its structure was fully characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and EI-MS spectral analysis.

Graphical Abstract

Chalcones are open-chain flavonoids with a common skeleton of 1,3-diaryl-2-propen-1-one [1]. They possess a wide range of biological activities such as antioxidant [2], antibacterial [3], antidepressant [4], antihypertensive [5] and anti-inflammatory activity [6]. Transformation of chalcones into pyrazoline derivatives can dramatically increase their biological properties such as antibacterial [7], antiprotozoal [8], or anti-inflammatory [9] activities. On the basis of these aspects we have synthesized a novel pyrazoline-based chalcone from 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene and 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde.
A solution of 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene (0.38 g, 0.0025 mol) and 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-pyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde (0.50 g, 0.0025 mol) in an ethanolic solution of NaOH (6.0 g in 10 mL of ethanol) was stirred for 16 h at room temperature. The solution was poured into ice-cold water of pH ~ 2 (pH adjusted by HCl). The solid was separated and dissolved in CH2Cl2, this solution was washed with a saturated solution of NaHCO3 and then evaporated to dryness. The residue was recrystallized from methanol/chloroform.
