Synthesis and characterization of selected fused isoxazole and pyrazole derivatives and their antimicrobial activity

New potent antibacterials, fused isoxazole and pyrazole derivatives, were synthesized using 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (1) and 3-[(4-chlorobenzylidene)amino]-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (2) as synthons. Aromatic aldehydes on condensation with 1 and 2 gave 2-arylidene-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,...

Description
Summary:New potent antibacterials, fused isoxazole and pyrazole derivatives, were synthesized using 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (1) and 3-[(4-chlorobenzylidene)amino]-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (2) as synthons. Aromatic aldehydes on condensation with 1 and 2 gave 2-arylidene-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (3) and 5-arylidene-3-[(4-chlorobenzylidene)amino]-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (4), respectively. Compounds 3 and 4 were forced to undergo heterocyclization reaction with nucleophilic reagents to give the title compounds. The newly synthesized heterocyles (5–8) were characterized based on their chemical properties and spectroscopic data, and were found to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus and Corynebacterium diphtheriae.
