Email- kumarisonu141@gmail.com Received 25 November 2014; accepted 06 December 2014 Abstract Keeping in view the pharmacological potential of Pyrazoles and Quinazoline, the title compounds containing these nuclei have been synthesized. Isatoic anhydride react with p-aminoacetophenone in ethanol give compound 3-(4-acetylphenyl) quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (1). The reaction of compound 1 with various benzaldehyde in presence of sodium hydroxide and ethanol yields corresponding chalcone (3a-d). Cyclization reaction between hydrazinehydrate and compound 3a-d, in presence of sodium acetate and acetic acid afforded title compounds 3-[4-(1-Acetyl-5-phenyl-4-5dihydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-phenyl]-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione (4a-d). The constitution of all the above products have been supported by elemental analysis and spectral studies. © 2014 Universal Research Publications.

Introduction: Quinazoline and its derivatives have attracted more attention of synthetic organic chemist due to its pharmacological and biological activity like antimicrobial1,2, analgesic and anti-inflammatory3,5 ,anticancer6-8 and antituberculosis9. Five membered heterocyclic compounds like pyrazole occupy a unique place in the field of synthetic organic chemistry.The synthesis of pyrazole derivetivs and investigations of their chemical and biological behavior gained more important role in recent decads of biological10,11, medicinal12,13, and agricultural regions14,15. Pyrazols are an important class of hetrocyclic compounds, several derivativs of which have been found to posses diverse types of biological activities including antimirobial16, antitumour17 and anti inflammatory18 antiviral19. These observations and in connection with our on-going programme of synthesizing quinazoline derivatives of certain heterocyclic systems, we undertake the synthesis of some new pyrazole derivatives containing quinazoline moiety with the hope of augmentation in biological activities. Result and Discussion: Isatoic anhydride were allowed to react with pAminoacetophenone in ethanol, resulting in the formation of I characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectral data. The IR spectra of compounds 1 showed an intense band at 1693 88 cm-1 for C=O group. The 1H-NMR spectra of this compound displayed singlet for COCH3 proton at 2.58 ppm and one singlet at 9.2 ppm due to NH proton. Treatment of I with equal moles of various aldehyde in ethanol and sodium hydroxide furnished corresponding chalcones IIIad. Formation of chalcones IIIa-d was confirmed by the disappearance singlet at 2.58 ppm. The absorption bands associated with other functionalities present all appeared in the expected regions. Cyclisation of compounds IIIa-d in presence of hydrazine hydrate and acetic acid afforded corresponding compound IVa-d were confirmed by a new band at 1285 cm-1 of N-N stretching. 1H-NMR spectra also helped in assigning the structure of IVa-d. Experimental: MATERIALS AND METHODS: Melting points of all synthesized compounds were taken in open capillaries and are uncorrected. IR spectra (KBr) were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer 1300 FT IR spectrometer and 1H NMR were determined on a Bruker WM-400 (400 MHz FT NMR) spectrometer using TMS as internal standard. Purity of compounds was checked by TLC using silica gelG as adsorbent and visualization was accomplished with iodine.
