Received on June 17, 2007 Accepted on Nov. 15, 2007 Abstract The synthesis and characterization of a series of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl- diphenylmethanols (4) was achieved by oxidative cyclization of N'-(3-aryl)methylene]-2-hydroxy2,2-diphenylacetohydrazides (3) with lead(IV) acetate. The S-{5-[hydroxy (diphenyl)methyl]-1,3,4oxadiazol-2-yl}-aryl carbothioates (7) were prepared by the reaction of (5-mercapto-1,3,4oxadiazol-2-yl)(diphenyl)methanol (5) with the respective acid chlorides. Keywords:1,3,4-Oxadiazoles; Lead(IV) acetate; Oxidative cyclization; Carbothionates. Introduction Within the framework of our systematic efforts focusing on the synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds as potential pharmaceutical agents oxadiazol-2-yl-diphenylmethanols (4) and [1] , a series of 5-aryl-1,3,4- S-{5-[hydroxy(diphenyl)-methyl]-1,3,4- oxadiazol-2-yl}-substituted benzene carbothioates (7) were synthesized . These 1,3,4oxadiazoles are known to possess peculiar biological activities and are important intermediates and building blocks in the construction of a variety of biologically active compounds as bactericidal, fungicidal, insecticidal, and anti-inflammatory agents [2-4] . At the same time benzilic acid skeleton is commonly found in molecules with great value in medicinal chemistry as antispasmodic [5] and selective anti-muscarinc [6-8] agent. A number of methods have been described in the literature for the preparation of substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles [9] . The most suitable methods for this synthesis apply either acid-catalyzed cyclization of 1,2-diacylhydrazines [10-12] or oxidative cyclization of acylhydrazones [13-15] . The reaction is promoted by heat and anhydrous reagents including thionyl chloride[16], phosphorous oxychloride[17], phosphorous pentoxide[18], triphenylphosphine[19], and triflic anhydride[20]. Alternative synthetic methods comprise reaction of carboxylic hydrazides with keteneylidene triphenylphosphorane[21] or basepromoted cyclization reaction of trichloroacetic acid hydrazones[22]. * Corresponding author. E-mail: mik@hu.edu.jo Despite the availability of these methods for the synthesis of these heterocycles, relatively few papers have been published describing the preparation of oxadiazoles having hydroxydiphenylmethyl functional group attached either to C-3 or C-5 of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring[23]. For this purpose, a new series of substituted 1,3,4oxadiazoles is described. Experimental Melting points were determined on an SMP2 Stuart apparatus and are are uncorrected. IR spectra were recorded 1 spectrophotometer as KBr pellets. H and on Nicolet Magna-560 FT-IR 13 C NMR spectra were performed in DMSO- d6 containing ca. 1% TMS as internal standard on Bruker WM-400 and Bruker DPX300 spectrometers. Mass spectra were measured on Finnigan MAT-731 at 70 eV. Microanalyses were performed at the Microanalytical Laboratory, Chemistry Department, The Hashemite University, Jordan. TLC was carried out on pre-coated silica gel plates (E. Merck Kiesegel 60 F254, layer thickness 0.25 mm). Benzilic acid, hydrazine monohydrate, p-tolualdehyde, p-halobenzaldehydes, furfural, thiophene-2carbaldehyde, pyridine-2-carbaldehyde, furoyl chloride, 2-thienoyl chloride, and picolinoyl chloride hydrochloride were purchased from Aldrich. 2-Hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetohydrazide (1, C14H14N2O2) This compound was prepared according to reference [17].

Results and Discussion Methyl 2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenyl acetate (methyl benzilate), prepared by acidcatalyzed esterification of 2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetic acid (bezilic acid), was converted into 2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetohydrazide (1) upon reaction with hydrazine hydrate in boiling ethanol according to the literature [24]. Two approaches were used for the synthesis of the target compounds: in the first approach (Scheme 1), N'-(3aryl)methylene-2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylaceto-hydrazides (3), prepared by refluxing (1) and aldehydes (2) in propanol, were cyclized to 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yldiphenylmethanols (4) using lead tetracetate previously for some acylhydrazones Ph HO Ph NH-NH2 [26] [25] .

The S-{5-[hydroxy (diphenyl)methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl}-aryl carbothioates (7a-7d) were prepared by reaction of compound (5) with acid chlorides (6) (Scheme 2). 216 N N HO (1) CS2 KOH HO SH O Ph Ph ArCOCl / CHCl3 6 H N N Ph S O Ph Ph HO N N O Ph S-COAr 7 5 6/7 a b Ar c d O S Cl Scheme 2 1H and 13C NMR spectra of all prepared compounds are in total agreement with the suggested structures; DEPT experiments were employed to differentiate secondary and quaternary carbons from primary and tertiary carbons. 1H NMR spectra of the newly prepared compounds indicate the presence of α-hydroxyl proton in the range of δ 3.30-3.50 (singlet) and the thiol group proton in compound 5 appear as singlet at δ 14.10 ppm, while 13C NMR spectra of this compound showed that the thione carbon of the keto tautomer resonated at δ 169.2 ppm. Compounds containing C=N were characterized by the presence of the signals in the range of δ 148.8-160.0 ppm in their 13 C NMR spectra. The presence of the thiol forms in compound 5 was confirmed also by the formation of a white precipitate after adding a solution of silver nitrate to a DMF solution of this compound. In the IR spectra of compounds 4, 5 and 7, the C=N band exhibited a weak absorption in the range 1540-1608 cm-1. Compounds 3 and 5 exhibited N-H stretching absorption bands in the region of 3228-3310 cm-1. The absorption band due to SH group in (5) was observed at 2960 cm-1 which indicates the existence of both tautomers (thiol and thione). This absorption band disappeared in compound 7. Additional support of the proposed structures comes from mass spectrometry; mass spectra of the prepared compounds show the correct molecular ions, M+·, as suggested by their molecular formulas. Analyses of the molecular ions and the fragmentation pattern are used in the identification and characterization of these compounds. 217 References: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] Al-Allaf, T.A.K.; Rashan, L.J.; Ayoub, M.T.; Adaay, M.H., Brit UK Pat, 1997, Appl GB 2304712 .
