Azomethines based on ethyl 4-formyl-3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate, its biological activity and reaction with thioglycolic acid

Condensation of ethyl 4-formyl-3,5-dimethyl-1 H -pyrrole-2-carboxylate with various aromatic amines and with 5-amino-3-(4-bromo- phenyl(tolyl))-1 H -pyrazole in absolute boiling ethanol afforded new azomethines as Schiff bases. The structure and E -configuration of the azomethine fragment were detec...

Description
Summary:Condensation of ethyl 4-formyl-3,5-dimethyl-1 H -pyrrole-2-carboxylate with various aromatic amines and with 5-amino-3-(4-bromo- phenyl(tolyl))-1 H -pyrazole in absolute boiling ethanol afforded new azomethines as Schiff bases. The structure and E -configuration of the azomethine fragment were detected by the methods of 1 H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis. Reaction of these compounds with thioglycolic acid in toluene, DMF, or AcOH at reflux with or without the addition of ZnCl 2 as well as under microwave irradiation had an unusual pathway leading to the formation of ethyl 3,5-dimethyl-4-(5-oxo-1,3-oxathiolan-2-yl)-1 H -pyrrole-2-carboxylate exclusively. The obtained azomethines were found to be effective only against Gram positive bacteria, whereas ethyl 4-{( E )-[(4-chlorophenyl)imino]- methyl}-3,5-dimethyl-1 H -pyrrole-2-carboxylate exhibited the highest antibacterial activity.
