INTRODUCTION Research programs for the discovery of new drugs and for improving the evolution criteria are under way in many laboratories. In addition knowledge of specific constituents of the mycobacterium cell and their biochemical roles has advanced considerably in the recent years and may permit a more rational approach to the design of new drug action on specific targets. Also, recent improvements in the knowledge of the mechanism of action of available drugs and the biochemical mechanism of resistance to them may be used as a basis for design new and better weapons to fight the mycobacterial diseases. The current environment for discovery and development of new pharmaceuticals agents could hardly be ware challenging. Public policies and attitudes are requiring reduction in health care expenditures and increase efficiencies, resulting in major health care reform in the United States. At the sometime, major diseases remain untreated and paradoxically, scientific progress continues with ever increasing acceleration. The last few decades have witnessed massive advances in biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology and genetics. This has to a better understanding of working the body at the molecular level. This in turn has resulted a much better understanding of the structure and function of important drug targets e.g. enzymes and receptors and that how drugs can be designed for these targets. Advances in genetics engineering have been used to produce human proteins and enzymes in fast growing microbial cells, allowing these molecules to be obtained in far greater yields than if they were extracted from human tissue. This makes it easier to study these micro molecules and to design drugs that will interact with them. Mapping of human DNA through human genome project has immense implications for medicinal chemistry. Introduction... 11 Studies on chemical entities... Advances in chemistry have made possible the synthesis of complexes molecules. Enantiometry is an important process in medicinal chemistry since life is inherently chiral and the drug targets within the body are chiral. As such, they can distinguish between the enantiomers of a chiral drug, so the use of recemic drug is inherently wasteful, since only one enantiomer is ideally designed to interact with its target. Moreover, the existences of the “wrong” enantiomer could create problems if it interacted with a different receptor, resulting inside effects. The focus of drug design has switched from structure oriented to target oriented research, e.g. development of the antiulcer agent cimetidine . Histamine was the lead compound for the project and various strategies were used to find an analog that would prevent it fitting its receptor. Once an antagonist was developed, a theory was proposed on how it might interact with the histamine receptor at a molecular level. Further analogs were then synthesized to test theory and the theory was continusally modified as required. In the nineteenth century, chemistry developed as a science, both in terms of experimental procedures and scientific theory. Scientist isolated and purified single compounds from natural extracts. Method of organic synthesis were developed that helped chemists altering structures in a predictable way. The chemists started separating out the various components of ancient positions to discover whether a single compound was responsible for the medicinal effect known as the active principle. Drugs are chemicals of low molecular weight (~100-500) which interact with macromolecular targets to produce a biological response. The biological response may be therapeutically useful in the case of medicines or harmful in the case of poisons. Most drugs used in medicine are potential poisons if taken in higher doses than recommended. Introduction... 12 Studies on chemical entities... Drugs are classified by their chemical structures. Drugs classified in this way share a common structural feature and often share similar pharmacological activity. For example, all penicillin’s contain a β-lactum ring and kill bacteria by the same mechanism, as a result, this classification can sometimes be useful in medicinal chemistry. However, it is not foolproof. Sulfonamides have a similar structure and are mostly antibacterial. However some sulfonamides are useful in the treatment of diabetes. Similarly all steroids have a tetracyclic structure, but the pharmacological effect of different steroids can be quite different e.g. testosterone is a sex hormone. Spironolactone is a diuretic . NH2 R H CH 3 H NH H S CH3 CH3 O N CH 3 R' O O S H H H O COOH penicillins R R'' NHR sulfonamides steroids Finally classifying drugs according to their molecular target is the most useful classification as far as medicinal chemist is concerned, since it allows a rational comparison of the structure involved. Any drug must ideally have a broad spectrum of activity, with a rapid bactericidal action. Some bacteria produce enzymes that can inactivate or modify antibiotics action. Some bacteria produce enzymes that can inactivate or modify antibiotics and insusceptibility of a drug to such degradation or modification could result in its playing an important part in therapy. Likewise, some bacteria possess an outer membrane that acts as a permeability barrier to the entry of some, but not all, antibiotics. Drugs that can readily penetrate this barrier might again be expected to be of possible clinical importance. The modern concept of drug discovery supported in 1933 by Gerhand Dumagk Introduction... 13 Studies on chemical entities... with his finding of prontosil red a compound responsible for the antibacterial activity. In 1939 Florey and Chain investigate penicillin-G which was discovered ten years earlier by Alexander Fleming. The word drug is described from the french word drogue which mean a dry herb. According to WHO a drug may be define as “Any substance or product which is used or intended to be used for modifying on exploring physiological system or pathological status for the benefit of the recipient.” There are two main division of medicinal chemistry. The first chemotherapy, concern with the treatment of infections, parasite or malignant disease by chemical agents, usually substance that shows selective toxicity towards the pathogen. During the period of 1940 to 1960 a large number of important drugs have been introduced and this period is regarded as “Golden Period” of new drug discovery. These are some of the specific examples representing new therapeutics. NAME OF DRUGS YEAR USES Sulfa drugs 1933 First antibacterial drug Penicillin 1940 Antibiotics Chloroquine 1945 Antimalarial Methyldopa 1950 Antidiabetic Chlorthiazide 1957 Diuretic Adrenergic betablockers 1958 Coronary Vasodilatory Semi synthetic penicillins 1960 Antibacterial Trimethoprim 1965 Antimicrobial Disodium chromoglycoate 1967 Antiallergic The other division relates to diseases of bodily disfunctioning of enzymes, the transmission of impulses on the action of hormones on receptors. Heterocyclic Introduction... 14 Studies on chemical entities... compounds are used for all these purpose, because they have a specific chemical reactions. The introduction of heterocyclic groups in to drugs may effect their physical properties, for examples the disscociation constants of sulpha drugs or modify their patterns of absorption, metabolisam or toxicity. During the period of 1930-1950 there was an urgent need for new drugs for treat diseases which had a high mortality rate, there was only limited appreciation of the hazard. Such drugs might present and toxicological studies before cinical trials were fairly radimenting proving the proverb “Necessity is the mother invention”, during the dacade of 30 and 40s. Taking in view of the applicability of heterocyclic compounds, we have undertaken the preparation of heterocycles bearing pyrazole nucleus. The placement of a wide variety of substituents of these nuclei have been designed in order to evaluate the synthesised products for their pharmacological profile against several strains of bacteria and fungi. AIM AND OBJECTIVES In the pharmaceutical field, these have always been and will continue to be a need for new and novel chemical inhibitors of biological function. Our efforts are focused on the introduction of chemical diversity in the molecular from work in order to synthesizing pharmacologically interesting compound of widely different composition. During the course of our research work, looking to the application of heterocyclic compounds, several entities have been designed, generated and characterized using spectral studies. The details are as under. 1. To synthesize therapeutically active compounds like pyrazolines, cyanopyridines, cyanopyridones, cyanopyrans, pyrimidines, indazoles, isoxazoles and thiazolidinones bearing methylsulfonyl moiety. Introduction... 15 Studies on chemical entities... 2. To generate several intermediates, like chalcones, cyclohexenone bearing methanesulfonyl acetophenone moiety. 3. To characterize these products for structure elucidation using several spectroscopic techniques like IR, PMR and Mass spectral studies. 4. To assess the reaction and purity of the compounds were done by TLC. 5. To evaluate these products for better drug potential against different strains of bacteria and fungi. 6. All the compounds have been sent to TAACF, southern Research institute, and USA; for antitubercular testing. Taking in to consideration the applicability of heterocyclic compounds, the placement of variety of substituted in these nuclei has been designed in order to evaluate the synthesized products for their better pharmaceutical profile. Introduction... 16 Studies on chemical entities... INTRODUCTION The term “chalcone” was first coined by Kotanecki, who did pioneering work in the synthesis of natural coloring compounds. They are characterized by their possession of a C6(A)-CO-CH=CH-C6(B), structure in which two aromatic ring A and B, are linked by an aliphatic three carbon chain. O A B (I) Chalcones are phenyl styryl ketones containing reactive keto-ethylinic group (-CO-CH=CH-). They are also known as benzalacetophenones or benzylidene acetophenones the alternatively names given to chalcone are β-phenyl acrylophenone, α -oxo-α,β -diphenyl- β-propylene and α -phenyl- β-benzoyl ethylenes. SYNTHETIC ASPECT A variety of a methods are available for the synthesis of chalcones. The most convenient method is the one that involves the Clasien-Schmidt condensation of equimolar quantities of a aryl methyl ketones with aryl aldehyde in the presence of alcoholic alkali. 1-3 4,5 Various condensing agent used are alkali of different strength. 6,7 8 9 Hydrogen chloride , Phosphorous oxychloride , Piperidine , Anhydrous aluminium 10 11 12 13 chloride , Boron trifluoride , Borax , Aminoacids , Perchloric acid 14 etc. MECHANISM The following two mechanisms have been suggested for the synthesis of chalcones.

The structure of some naturally occurring pigments like chrysin, galangin, kaempferol and quercetrol were established by their synthesis from suitably substituted chalcones. 4. 24 They have been useful in providing structure of some natural products like 25 26 27 28 cyanomulcurin , eviodictoyl , hemlocktanin , narighenin , plioretin 5. 29 etc. 30 Chalcones are also useful for the detection of Fe(II) and Ca(II) 31 ions in presence of Ba and Sr as it reacts with number of metal ions. Trihydroxy chalcones were used as an analytical reagents for amperometric estimation Pyrazolines... 18 Studies on chemical entities... of copper 6. 32 33 and for spectrophotomatric study of the germanium. The chalcones are natural biocides 34,35 and are well-known key intermidiate in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds possessing biodynamic behaviour. 7. 36-38 Chalcone and their derivatives are also found to be applicable as light 39 40 stabilizing agent , sweetening agent , oganic brightening agent, photo sensitive material, polymerisation catalyst, scintillators as well as fluorescent whitening agent. THERAPEUTIC IMPORTANCE Chalcones derivatives have been found to possess wide range of therapeutic activities as shown below. 1. Antitumor 41,42 2. Antispasmodic 3. Antiulcer 43 44,45 4.

INTRODUCTION Amongst nitrogen containing five membered heterocycles, pyrazolines have proved to be the most useful framework for biological activities, Pyrazolines have attracted attention of medicinal chemists for both with regard to heterocyclic chemistry and the pharmacological activities associated with them. In 1967 Jacobe, reviewed the chemistry of pyrazolines, which have been studied extensively for their biodyndmic behaviour 88 and industrial applications. 89 N N H (I) SYNTHETIC ASPECT : Different methods for the preparation of 2-pyrazoline derivatives documented in literature are as follows. 1. Dipolar cycloaddition of nitrilimines of dimethyl fumarate, fumaronitrile 90 and the N-aryl maleimides yields the corresponding pyrazolines . 2. Epoxidation of chalcones i.e. epoxy ketones which reacted with hydrazine 91 and phenyl hydrazine to give pyrazolines . Furthermore, B. Gyassi et al. 92 investigated the one pot synthesis of some pyrazolines in dry media under microwave irradiation. S. Paul et al. 93 and Dandia Anshu et al. 94 have also described the microwave assisted synthesis of 2-pyrazolines. 3. 2-Pyrazolines can be constructed by the cyclocondensation of chalcones with 95 hydrazine hydrate . 4. 2-Pyrazolines can also be prepared by the condensation of chalcone dibromide 96 with hydrazine .

Proton transfer from the nitrogen to -ve oxygen produces an intermediate enol which simultaneously ketonises to ketoamine. Another intramolecular nucleophilic attack by the primary amino group of ketoamine on its carbonyl carbon followed by proton transfer from nitrogen to oxygen leads ultimately to carbonyl amine. The later with a hydroxy group and amino group on the same carbon lose water molecule to yield the pyrazolines. Pyrazolines... 24 Studies on chemical entities...

INTRODUCTION Pyridine is the parent of the series of compounds that is important in pharmaceutical, agriculture and industrial chemistry. Among a wide range of pyridines 3-cyanopyridines acquired a special attention due to their wide range of therapeutic activities. Most derivatives are prepared by manipulation of pyridine and its simple homologues in a manner similar to chemistry of the benzenoid chemistry. However the simple pyridine compounds are prepared by the cyclization of aliphatic raw materials. The pyridine nucleous is found in a large number of commonly used drugs which have diverse pharmacological activities. Interest in the synthesis of multicyclic pyridine containing compounds have increased in recent years because of their biological and pharmacological activities. In our continuation work in the chemistry of pyridine nucleous, we have undrtaken the synthesis of methylsulfonyl derivatives such as 2-methoxy-6-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-4-phenylnicotinonitrile via chlacones. COOCH3 N H 3 CO CN R SYNTHETIC ASPECT : 1-6 Preparation of 3-cyanopyridines have been cited in literature with different methods. 1. 7 S a m o u r a n d c o - w o r k e r have prepared substituted cyanopyridines by th e condensation of chalcones with malononitrile in presence of ammonium acetate.

Cyanopyridines... 68 Studies on chemical entities... 19 The insecticidal activity of cyanopyridines have been screened by Y. Sasaki et al. Umed Ten et al. 20 have prepared cyanopyridines as agrochemical fungicides. The oxide activator bleaching activity of cyanopyridine has been proved by 21 Rees M. , Oshida M. 22 prepared cyanopyridine derivatives which inhibit cerebral edema and delayed neuron death. hence, they are useful as cerebral edema inhibitors or cerebrovascular disorder remedies. 23 24 S. S. Verma et al. and M. D. Ankhiwala have synthesized 2-amino-3-cyano2,6-disubstituted pyrimidines and studied their biological activities. Several workers have prepared cyanopyridine derivatives and reported their cholinesterase inhibitors, 25 antihistaminic and antiallergic, 29 26 adernergic, 27 herbicidal, 28 30 antiinflammatory and insecticidal activities. Some new 3-cyanopyridine derivatives 31 synthesized by Hammama A. and coworkers showed anticancer and anti HIV-I activity. Abdallah N. et al. 32 have synthesized and reported analgesic and antiinflammatory activity. Moreover Miertus et al. 33 synthesized 2-formyl pyridine thiosemicarbazone as a carcinostatic agent. Adriano Afonso et al. 34 have found cyanopyridines are Fernesyl protein tranferase inhibitors. Hussain et al. 35 cyanopyridines as antimicrobial agent. Wu Wenxue et al. 36 have synthesized have synthesized cyanopyridines as histamine H3 antagonists. Saudi Manal N. S. et al. 37 have found 38 that cyanopyridines have fascialicidal property. Harada Hironori et al. have prepared cyanopyridines and screened for their large conductance calcium activated potassium channel opener activity.

INTRODUCTION The chemistry of pyran with different functional group exhibit wide range of applications in the field of pharmaceuticals, dyes, insecticides and sweet smelling substances. Pyran ring system is also present in large number of natural coloured compounds in Vitamin E, hemorrhagic compound in cloves, in fish poisions, in certain alkaloids and in other substances. O 4H-pyran O 2H-pyran (I) Pyran is a doubly unsaturated six membered ring system with a single oxygen as hetero atom. The two double bonds may be conjugated as α,β or 1,2-pyran or isolated as in α,δ or 1,4-pyran. A degree of stabilisation of the pyran nucleus is achieved by substituting phenyl group in the 2 or 4 and preferably also in the 6 position. SYNTHETIC ASPECT Various methods for the preparation of pyran derivatives have been cited in the literature 1. 1-10 .

INTRODUCTION Pyrimidine is the most important member of all the diazines as this ring system occurs widely in living organisms. Pyrimidine and its derivatives have gained prominence bacause of their potential pharmaceutical values. Many pyrimidine derivatives play vital role in many physiological action. They are among those molecules that make life possible as being some of the building blocks of DNA and RNA. N N (I) Pyrimidine is considered to be a resonance hybrid of the charged and uncharged cannonical structures, its resonance energy has been found to be less than benzene or pyridine. The naturally occuring pyrimidine derivatives was first isolated by Gabrial and Colman in 1870, and its structure was confirmed in 1953 as 5-β-D-gluco-pyranoside of divicine. SYNTHETIC ASPECT A very important general method for preparing pyrimidines is the condensation between a three carbon compounds of the type YCH2 Z, where Y and Z = COR, CO 2 R, CN, and compounds having the amidine structure R(C=NH)NH2 , where R = R (an amidine), OH (urea), SH or SR (thiourea or its s-derivative), NH2 (guanidine); the condensation is carried out in the presence of sodium hydroxide or sodium ethoxide. This general reaction may be illustrate by the condensation of acetamidine with ethylacetoacetate to form 4-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine.

Pyrimidines can also be prepared by cycloaddition reaction of 1,3,5triazines,which act as electron deficient dienes. H3C N N H3C C N N (C2 H5 )2 (H5 C2)2 N N N There are many other methods of pyrimidine ring synthesis which are of more limited scope. The reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compound or an equivalent reagent with formamide provides a route of several pyrimidine which are unsubstituted at the 2-position.

INTRODUCTION Isoxazole is a five membered heterocyclic compound having two hetero atom: oxygen at position 1 and nitrogen at position 2. Claisen first reported an isoxazole 1 (I) for a product from the reaction of 1,3 diketone with hydroxylamine. It was shown to possess typical properties of an aromatic system but under certain reaction conditions. Particularly in reducing or basic media, it becomes very highly labile. N O (I) The next important contribution to the chemistry of isoxazoles was made by 2 Quelico in 1945, when he begain to study the formation of isoxazoles from nitrile N-oxide and unsaturated compounds. SYNTHETIC ASPECT Isoxazoles can be prepared by various method, which are described as under. 1. 3 Tayade V. B. et al. synthesized some new 3,5-diarylisoxazoles from the reaction of 2-aryl acetophenones with hydroxyl amine hydrochloride in presence of alkali. 2. 4 Dawood Kamal et al. prepared isoxazole derivatives from enamino nitriles. 3. 5 Crawley L. S. and Fan shawe W. J. prepared isoxazole from α,β -unsaturated carbonyl compounds, hydroxyl amine hydrochloride and KOH in methanol.

INTRODUCTION Thiazolidinone, which belong to an important group of heterocyclic compounds have been extensively explored for their applications in the field of medicine. Thiazolidinones, with a carbonyl group at position 2 (I), 4 (II), and 5 (III), have been subjects of extensive study in the recent past. Numerous reports have appeared in the literature which highlight their chemistry and use. O H N 4 3 5 2 1 S O H N 4 3 5 2 1 S (I) O H N 4 3 5 2 1 S (II) (III) 4-Thiazolidinones are derivatives of thiazolidine with carbonyl group at 4 position (II) substituent in the 2,3 and 5 position may be varied, but the greatest difference in structure and properties is exerted by the groups attached to carbon atom at the 2-position and to nitrogen atom at the 3-position. The cyclic structure was assigned after recognisation of mercaptoacetic acid as a primary products of hydrolysis of 2-phenyl-3-phenylamino-4-thiazolidinones. 1 2 The chemistry of 4-thiazolidinones was reviewed in depth by F. Brown in 3 1961 and G. Newkome and A. Nayak in 1979. SYNTHETIC ASPECT 4-Thiazolidinones are synthesized either by cyclisation of acyclic compounds or by interconversion among appropriately substituted thiazolidinone derivatives. α -Mercapto alkanoics acids have been extensively used for the synthesis of 4-thiazolidinones. Thiazolidinones... 193 Studies on chemical entities... R1 R2 R1 HN + N R HS R R3 H S COOH R2 R2 COOH R = Alky or aryl R 1 = Aryl or heterocyclic R 2 = H or alkyl H N O R 3 = H or alkyl R 2 , R 3 = Arylidene R1 R2 (IV) S R3 The substituted and unsubstituted α -mercapto alkanoic acids react conveniently with Schiff’s bases of aromatic heterocyclic aldehyde and aliphatic or aromatic amines in different solvent to give a variety of 2-substituted-4thiazolidinones 4-6 (IV). MECHANISM The reaction proceeds by the attack of the mercapto acetic acid upon the C=N group, with the HS-CH2 -COOH adding to the carbon atom followed by the capture of a proton by nitrogen and subsequent cyclisation. R1 R N R R R1 H OH + N -H2 O N S O O HO R1 S SH O In there reaction, the uncyclised intermediate is formed in several cases. The 7 uncyclised product has been isolated. Phosphorous pentoxide in dioxan was used Thiazolidinones... 194 Studies on chemical entities... 8 for subsequent cyclisation of certain uncyclised products. In may instance 4thiazolidinones can conveniently be prepared by refluxing the mixture of 9 thioglycolic acid and Schiff’s bases in benzene or dry ether 10 or ethanol. 11 The nucleophilic attack of mercapto acetic acid anion on carbon of azomethine, which has got possitive character while nitrogen has negative character is evidenced, simultaneously removal of water as it forms in reaction, helps in condensation and determination of the reaction time. THERAPEUTIC IMPORTANCE The thiazolidinones, substituted at 2 and 3 position showed a wide variety of biologically activity.
