Kumada cross coupling reaction based synthesis, antimicrobial and computational studies of 6-aryl-2-phenyl-3-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones

Аннотация

Nickel catalyzed Kumada cross coupling reaction, a novel synthetic method for the synthesis of 6-aryl-2-phenyl-3-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones (6a–6i), was carried out by condensing 6-iodo-2-phenyl-3-methyl-quinazolin-4(3H)-one (4) with various 6-aryl/heteroaryl Grignard reagents. Molecular properties of compounds 4 and 6a–6i were studied using semiempirical PM3 computational method. The optimized geometry of the product 6 indicated that the aryl group at the position 6 was not coplanar with respect to either quinazolinone ring or phenyl group at 2 position. Compounds 6a–6i were screened for their activity against bacteria and fungi.
