Nitrothiazolyl derivatives of nitrostyrene

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Compounds based on hydroxy substituted nitrostyrene have been developed as of special interest having antifungal, antibacterial and anthelmintic properties. Antimicrobials and anthelmintics were the subject of the investigations.
It is an object of this invention to prepare substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives using an organic aldehyde to produce new compounds having properties not reported in the literature.
SYNOPSIS
The compounds of the present invention are prepared as follows:
Aromatic aldehydes of the general formula: ##SPC1##
Wherein R.sub.2 = H, Cl or Br are condensed with nitroalkanes of the general formula R.sub.1 CH.sub.2 --NC.sub.2 wherein R.sub.1 is H, CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 and the resultant .beta.-nittestyrene derivatives of the general formula ##SPC2##
Wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the same meaning as defined above, are, if desired, reacted with (i) a compound of formula R.sub.4 --N=C=X where X is O or S, R.sub.4 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 cycloalkyl, phenyl, chlorophenyl, bromophenyl, iodophenyl, anisyl, tolyl or nitrophenyl, or (ii) 5-nitro-2-chloro thiazole to obtain compounds of the general formula ##SPC3##
Wherein R.sub.1 =H,CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5, R.sub.2 =H,Cl or Br and R.sub.3 is --OCONHR.sub.4, --OCSNHR.sub.4 or 5-nitrothiazol-2yl-oxy wherein R.sub.4 is as defined earlier.
It is an object of this invention to propose new substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives having antifungal, antibacterial and anthelmintic properties.
It is another object of this invention to propose new substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives having antifungal, antimicrobial and anthelmintic properties which have low toxicity.
Yet another object of this invention is to propose a process for preparing the said compounds by an economical and uncomplicated process.
PRIOR ART
It is known from C.A. Vol. 62, p.p.14569e that 3-nitro-4-hydroxy-.beta. -nitrostyrene has been claimed to have antifungal properties against plant pathogenic fungi.
It has not been reported in the art that hydroxy substituted nitrostyrene derivatives have any other property other than antifungal property.
It is also not known to prepare any other substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives excepting a few earlier (J.Am.Chem. Soc, 74, 4486 (1952), and J. Org. Chem, 18, 1-3 (1953).
We have surprisingly found that some new compounds of substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives have antibacterial as well as anthelmintic properties.
We have still further unexpectedly found that in general all the compounds discovered by us, have antimicrobial and anthelmintic properties. Further, we have discovered that by blocking the hydroxy group with a nitrothiazole moiety we can obtain products with low toxicity having a broad spectrum antimicrobial activity. Again we have been able to prepare new m-hydroxynitrostyrenes and their carbamate derivatives which are very active against cestodes (Hymenolepis nana). Further we have discovered that the activity of the nitrostyrene derivatives of our inventions can be enhanced by a .beta.-methyl or a .beta.-ethyl group.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
According to this invention there is provided a process for preparing substituted hydroxynitrostyrene derivatives of the formula ##SPC4##
wherein R.sub.1 is H, CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5, R.sub.2 is H, Cl, or Br and R.sub.3 is OH, or ##STR1## or 5-nitrothiazol-2-yl-oxy, wherein X is O or S and R.sub.4 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 cycloalkyl, phenyl, chlorophenyl, bromophenyl, iodophenyl, anisyl, tolyl or nitrophenyl with the previso that when R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are both H, R.sub.3 is not 4--CH which comprises reacting a compound of formula ##SPC5##
wherein R.sub.2 is as defined before with a lower alkyl amine like propylamine or butylamine, in a hydrocarbon solvent medium at around reflux temperature of the solvent used to produce the corresponding aldimine, thereafter reacting the obtained aldimine product with a nitroalkane of the formula
R.sub.1 --CH.sub.2 --NO.sub.2
wherein R.sub.1 is as defined before, in an aliphatic acid medium or an alcoholic medium having an aliphatic acid at about 50.degree. to 110.degree. C to produce a compound of formula ##SPC6##
followed by, when desired, reacting the --OH group, through its alkalimetal salt, either formed in situ or isolated, (i) with a nitrothiazole or formula ##SPC7##
wherein X is a halogen like chloro or bromo to produce compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.3 is 5-nitrothiazol-2-yl-oxy or (ii) with an isocyanate or or an isothiocyanate of the general formula R.sub.4 -- N=C=X wherein X is O or S and R.sub.4 is as defined before to produce compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.3 is ##STR2##
The first stage of the reaction, namely the production of the aldimine derivatives, can be carried out in either of the following ways:
The intermediate compound produced can be isolated and reacted separately at the subsequent stage or the hydrocarbon solvent can be removed from the reaction system after the first stage reaction and then the second stage reaction carried out using aliphatic acid medium or an alcoholic medium having an aliphatic acid. Thus the aliphatic acid can be employed both as a reaction medium and a catalyst or as a catalyst alone.
It is to be observed that the products conforming to the formula ##SPC8##
can also be produced using as starting material an organic aldehyde having the nitrothiazole substitution and it has also been found that this process is very uneconomical and of less commercial significance.

The anthelmintic properties of the products of the invention have been determined as follows:
Albimo mice of either sex (18-20 g.weight range) were administered by gavage 0.2 ml of the standard inoculum (containing 1000 viable eggs). 20 days later, the faecal matter was checked for Hymenolipis nana eggs. Mice showing the presence of H nana eggs were taken for experiments. They were classified on the weight basis. 5 animals were taken in each cage.
Compounds of the invention under investigation were suspended in 0.2% tragacanth. Concentrations were adjusted in such a way that 0.2 ml conformed to particular dosage schedule for each compound. They were administered by gavage in fasting condition in the morning on 21st day post infection, once daily for 3 consecutive days. For each set of test compound group, one cage of infected control mice was kept. These received saline for 3 days.
After 3 consecutive days of administration, all mice were kept fasting on the subsequent day (24th day post infection) and sacrificed on the 25th day. Results of surviving mice only have been taken. From each mouse, the whole intestine including caecum was collected in a petri dish with water. It was cut open longitudinally and was examined for adult worms and scolices. Absolute clearance of worms and scolices in individual mouse was taken as a criterion for assessing the results of each group.
