Abstract

:
Six novel 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-(p-nitrobenzoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5- ones (2a-f) were synthesized by the reactions of 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H- 1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (1a-f) with p-nitrobenzoyl chloride and characterized by elemental analyses and IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and UV spectral data. The newly synthesized compounds 2 were titrated potentiometrically with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide in four non-aqueous solvents such as acetone, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and N,N-dimethylformamide, and the half-neutralization potential values and the corresponding pKa values were determined for all cases. Thus, the effects of solvents and molecular structure upon acidity were investigated. In addition, isotropic 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic shielding constants of compounds 2 were obtained by the gauge-including-atomic-orbital (GIAO) method at the B3LYP density functional level. The geometry of each compound has been optimized using the 6-311G basis set. Theoretical values were compared to the experimental data. Furthermore, these new compounds and five recently reported 3-alkyl-4-(2-furoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (3a–c,e,f) were screened for their antioxidant activities.

Introduction

1,2,4-Triazole and 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives are reported to show a broad spectrum of biological activities [16], and several papers have devoted with the synthesis of acyl derivatives of 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives [2,4,712]. In addition, it is known that 1,2,4-triazole and 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one rings have weak acidic properties, so that some 1,2,4-triazole and 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives were titrated potentiometrically with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide in non-aqueous solvents, and the pKa values of the compounds were determined [2,13,14]. We have previously described the synthesis and potentiometric titrations of some new 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives in different non-aqueous medium [912,1518], where we determined the pKa values of these compounds for each non-aqueous solvent.
NMR spectroscopy has proved to be an exceptional tool to elucidate structure and molecular conformation. Ab initio and DFT (density functional theory) calculations of NMR shielding constants at very accurate levels of theory are available at literature [19]. The widely used methods to calculate chemical shifts are as follows: IGLO (individual gauge localized orbital), LORG (localized or loacaorbital origin) and GIAO (gauge independent or invariant or including atomic orbital). The GIAO approach [20] is known to give satisfactory chemical shifts for different nuclei [2022] of larger molecules, yet these quantum chemical calculations often have to be limited to isolated (gas-phase) molecules and in some preferred (optimized) structures, while experimental NMR spectra are commonly statically averages affected by dynamic process such as conformational equilibria as well as intra and/or intermolecular interactions. We have previously described the synthesis and GIAO NMR calculations for some new 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives [23,24].
Antioxidants are extensively studied for their capacity to protect organisms and cells from damage that is induced by oxidative stress. Scientists in various disciplines have become more interested in new compounds, either synthesized or obtained from natural sources that could provide active components to prevent or reduce the impact of oxidative stress on cells [25]. Exogenous chemicals and endogenous metabolic processes in human body or in food system might produce highly reactive free radicals, especially oxygen derived radicals, which are capable of oxidizing biomolecules, resulting in cell death and tissue damage. Oxidative damages play a significantly pathological role in human diseases. For example, cancer, emphysema, cirrhosis, atherosclerosis and arthritis have all been correlated with oxidative damage. Also, excessive generation of ROS (reactive oxygen species) induced by various stimuli and which exceeds the antioxidant capacity of the organism leads to variety of pathophysiological processes such as inflammation, diabetes, genotoxicity and cancer [26]. In the present study, due to a wide range applications and to find their possible radical scavenging and antioxidant activity, the newly synthesized compounds were investigated using several antioxidant methodologies: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging, reducing power and metal chelating activities.
The antioxidant activity of six new 3-alkyl-4-(p-nitrobenzoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5- ones (2a–f) (Scheme 1), which were synthesized by the reactions of 3-alkyl-4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (1a-f) with p-nitrobenzoyl chloride and five 3-alkyl-4-(2-furoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (3a–c,e,f), which was synthesized according to literature [10] were determined. In addition, a DFT method was used to calculate theoretical 1H and 13C data of six new 2 type compounds. Moreover, we also examined the potentiometric titrations of the synthesized type 2 compounds with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH) in four non-aqueous solvents (acetone, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and N,N-dimethylformamide) to determine the corresponding half-neutralization potentials (HNP) and the corresponding pKa values. The data obtained from the potentiometric titrations was interpreted, and the effect of the C-3 substituent in 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one ring as well as solvent effects were determined similarly to previous studies [918].

Experimental

Synthesis

IR spectra were registered using potassium bromide disks on a Shimadzu 408 spectrometer. 1HNMR and 13C-NMR spectra were recorded in deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide with TMS as internal standard on a Varian-Mercury spectrometer at 200 MHz and 50 MHz, respectively. UV-Vis absorption spectra were measured for ethanol solutions in 10 mm quartz cells between 200 and 400 nm using a Shimadzu-1201 spectrophotometer. Melting points were taken on an Electrothermal 9100 digital melting point apparatus. Combustion analyses were performed on a Carlo Erba 1106 Elemental Analyzer. Chemicals were supplied from Fluka and Merck. The starting compounds 1a–f were prepared according to literature [8,27]. Compounds 3 were obtained throught recently reported methods [10].

Antioxidant Activity

Chemicals

Butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT) was purchased from E. Merck. Ferrous chloride, α-tocopherol, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH.), 3-(2-pyridyl)-5,6-bis(phenyl-sulfonic acid)-1,2,4-triazine (ferrozine), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and trichloracetic acid (TCA) were purchased from Sigma (Sigma −Aldrich GmbH, Sternheim, Germany).

Reducing power

The reducing power of the synthesized compounds was determined according to the method of Oyaizu [28]. Different concentrations of the samples (50–150 mg/L) in DMSO (1 mL) were mixed with phosphate buffer (2.5 mL, 0.2 M, pH = 6.6) and potassium ferricyanide (2.5 mL, 1%). The mixture was incubated at 50°C for 20 min. after incubation period; a portion of trichloroacetic acid (2.5 mL, 10%) was added to the mixture, which was then centrifuged for 10 min at 1000 x g. The upper layer of solution (2.5 mL) was mixed with distilled water (2.5 mL) and FeCl3 (0.5 mL, 0.1%), and then, the absorbance was measured at 700 nm in a spectrophometer. Higher absorbance of the reaction mixture indicated greater reducing power.

Free radical scavenging activity

Free radical scavenging activity of compounds was measured by DPPH. using the method of Blois [29]. Briefly, a 0.1 mM solution of DPPH. in ethanol was prepared, and this solution (1 mL) was added to the solutions in DMSO (3 mL) at different concentrations (50–150 mg/L). The mixture was shaken vigorously and allowed to stand at room temperature for 30 min. Then the absorbance was measured at 517 nm in a spectrophometer. Lower absorbance of the reaction mixture indicated higher free radical scavenging activity. The DPPH. concentration (mM) in the reaction medium was calculated from the following calibration curve and determined by linear regression (R: 0.997):
Absorbance = 0.0003   ×  DPPH . 0.0174
The capability to scavenge the DPPH radical was calculated using the following equation:
DPPH . scavenging effect  ( % ) = ( A 0 A 1 / A 0 ) × 100
Where A0 is the absorbance of the control reaction and A1 is the absorbance in the presence of the samples or standards.

Metal chelating activity

The chelating ferrous ions by the synthesized compounds and standards were estimated by the method of Dinis et al. [30]. Briefly, the synthesized compounds (12.5–37.5 mg/L) were added to a solution of 2 mM FeCl2 (0.05 mL). The reaction was initiated by the addition of 5 mM ferrozine (0.2 mL) and the mixture was shaken vigorously and left standing at room temperature for 10 min. after the mixture had reached equilibrium, the absorbance of the solution was then measured spectrophotometrically at 562 nm in a spectrophotometer. All test and analyses were run in triplicate and averaged. The percentage of inhibition of ferrozine-Fe2+ complex formation was given by the formula:
% Inhibition = ( A 0 A 1 / A 0 ) × 100
Where A0 is the absorbance of the control, and A1 is the absorbance in the presence of the samples or standards. The control did not contain compound or standard.

HNP and pKa value determination

A Jenway 3040-model ion analyzer was used for potentiometric titrations. An Ingold pH electrode was used. For each compound that would be titrated, the 0.001 M solution was separately prepared in each non-aqueous solvent. The 0.05 M solution of TBAH in isopropyl alcohol, which is widely used in the titration of acids, was used as titrant. The mV values, that were obtained in pH-meter, were recorded. Finally, the HNP values were determined by drawing the mL (TBAH)-mV graphic.

Computational Methods

The compounds, for which calculations were carried out, are indicated in Tables 27. The numbering system is shown in Scheme 1. All the structures were fully optimized with the Gaussian 03 program at the B3LYP/6-311G theoretical level [31]. After the optimization, 1H and 13C chemical shifts were calculated with GIAO method [20,3234], using corresponding TMS shielding calculated at the same theoretical level as the reference. All the computations were done using an IBM X-225 e-server computer. Linear correlation analyses were carried out using SigmaPlot program. The quality of each correlation was judged examining R, the Pearson correlation coefficient [35].

Results and Discussion

In this study, the compounds 2 and 3 were screened for their in-vitro antioxidant activities. Several methods are used to determine antioxidant activities. The methods used in this study are given below.

Total reductive capability using the potassium ferricyanide reduction method

The reductive capabilities of compounds are assessed by the extent of conversion of the Fe3+ / ferricyanide complex to the Fe2+/ ferrous form. The reducing powers of the compounds were observed at different concentrations, and results were compared with BHA, BHT and α-tocopherol. The reducing capacity of a compound may serve as a significant indicator of its potential antioxidant activity [36]. The antioxidant activity of putative antioxidant has been attributed to various mechanisms, among which are prevention chain initiation, binding of transition metal ion catalyst, decomposition of peroxides, prevention of continued hydrogen abstraction, reductive capacity and radical scavenging [37]. In this study, all of the amounts of the compounds showed lower absorbance then blank. Hence, no activities were observed to reduce metal ions complexes to their lower oxidation state or to take part in any electron transfer reaction. In order words, compounds 2a–f and 3a–c,e,f did not show the ability of electron donor to scavenge free radicals.

DPPH• radical scavenging activity

The scavenging the stable DPPH radical model is a widely used method to evaluate antioxidant activities in a relatively short time compared with other methods. The effect of antioxidants on DPPH radical scavenging was thought to be due to their hydrogen donating ability [38]. DPPH is a stable free radical and accepts an electron or hydrogen radical to become a stable diamagnetic molecule [39]. The reduction capability of DPPH radicals was determined by decrease in its absorbance at 517 nm induced by antioxidants. The absorption maximum of a stable DPPH radical in ethanol was at 517 nm. The decrease in absorbance of DPPH radical caused by antioxidants, because of reaction between antioxidant molecules and radical, progresses, which result in the scavenging of the radical by hydrogen donation. It is visually noticeable as a discoloration from purple to yellow. Hence, DPPH. is usually used as a substrate to evaluate antioxidative activity of antioxidants [40]. In this study, antiradical activities of compounds and standard antioxidants such as BHA and α-tocopherol were determined by using DPPH. method. All the compounds tested with this method showed lower absorbance than absorbance of the control reaction and higher absorbance than that of the standard antioxidant reactions. The data obtained in this study indicate that the newly synthesized compounds showed mild activities as a radical scavenger, indicating that it has moderate activities as hydrogen donors. Figure 1 and Figure 2 illustrate a dose-dependent DPPH· radical scavenging activity of compounds tested and standards.

Ferrous ions chelating activity

The chelating effect towards ferrous ions by the compounds and standards was determined according to the method of Dinis [30]. Ferrozine can quantitatively form complexes with Fe2+. In the presence of chelating agents, the complex formation is disrupted with the result that the red colour of the complex is decreased. Measurement of colour reduction therefore allows estimation of the chelating activity of the coexisting chelator [41]. Transition metals have pivotal role in the generation oxygen free radicals in living organism. The ferric iron (Fe3+) is the relatively biologically inactive form of iron. However, it can be reduced to the active Fe2+, depending on condition, particularly pH [42] and oxidized back through Fenton type reactions with the production of hydroxyl radical or Haber-Weiss reactions with superoxide anions. The production of these radicals may lead to lipid peroxidation, protein modification and DNA damage. Chelating agents may not activate metal ions and potentially inhibit the metal-dependent processes [43]. Also, the production of highly active ROS such as O2.–, H2O2 and OH. is also catalyzed by free iron though Haber-Weiss reactions:
O . + H 2 O 2 O 2 + OH - + OH .
Among the transition metals, iron is known as the most important lipid oxidation pro-oxidant, due to its high reactivity. The ferrous state of iron accelerates lipid oxidation by breaking down the hydrogen and lipid peroxides to reactive free radicals via the Fenton reactions:
Fe 2 + + H 2 O 2 Fe 3 + + OH - + OH .
Also Fe3+ ion produces radicals from peroxides, although the rate is tenfold less than of Fe2+ ion, which is the most powerful pro-oxidant among various sort of metal ions [44].
Ferrous ion chelating activities of 2a, 2b and 2e, BHT and α-tocopherol are shown in Figure 3. 2a showed better ferrous chelating activity compared to standards at a concentration of 12,5 mg/L. Compounds 2a and 2e revealed good chelating activities at a concentration of 37,5 mg/L. Compounds 2c, 2d and 2f did not show any chelating effect. The 3a, 3b, 3c, 3e and 3f compounds tested with this method exhibited 66.9, 5.4, 72.4, 12.9 and 23.5 % chelation of ferrous ion at the concentration of 12.5 mg/L, respectively (Figure 4). Otherwise, the percentages of metal chelating capacity of same concentration of BHT and α-tocopherol were found 51,8 and 12,5 %, respectively (Figure 3 and Figure 4). Metal chelating capacity was significant since it reduced the concentrations of the catalyzing transition metal. It was reported that chelating agents, which form σ-bonds with a metal, are effective as secondary antioxidants because they reduce the redox potential thereby stabilizing the oxidized form of metal ion [45]. The data obtained from Figure 3 and Figure 4 reveal that the compounds, except for 2c, 2d and 2f, demonstrate a marked capacity for iron binding at the concentration-dependent manner, suggesting that their action as peroxidation protector may be related to its iron binding capacity. Moreover, free iron is known to have low solubility and a chelated iron complex has greater solubility in solution, which can be contributed solely from the ligand. Furthermore, the compound-iron complex may also be active, since it can participate to iron-catalyzed reactions.
In this study, the antioxidant activities of compounds varied with the tree test models. Our results revealed that all of the tested compounds showed mild antiradical activity and the compounds, except for 2c, 2d and 2f, revealed good chelating activities. In conclusion the data here reported could be of the possible interest because of their activities of radical scavenging and metal chelating could prevent redox cycling.

Potentiometric titrations

As a separate study, newly synthesized 2a–f type compounds were titrated potentiometrically with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH) in four non-aqueous solvents such as acetone (ε=20.6), isopropyl alcohol (ε=19.4), tert-butyl alcohol (ε=12.0) and N,N-dimethylformamide (ε=36.7). The mV values read in each titration were drawn against 0.05 M TBAH volumes (mL) added, and thus potentiometric titration curves were formed for all the cases. From these curves, the HNP values were measured, and the corresponding pKa values were calculated.
As an example, the potentiometric titration curves for 0.001 M compounds 2a–f solutions titrated with 0.05 M TBAH in acetone are shown Figure 5.
The HNP values and the corresponding pKa values for new compounds 2a–f, obtained from the potentiometric titrations with 0.05 M TBAH in acetone, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and N,Ndimethylformamide, are presented in Table 1.
When the dielectric permittivity of solvents is taken into consideration, the acidic arrangement can be expected as follows: N,N-dimethylformamide (ε=36.7) > acetone (ε=20.6) > isopropyl alcohol (ε=19.4) > tert-butyl alcohol (ε=12.0). As seen in Table 1, the acidic arrangement for compounds 2a, 2e and 2f is: isopropyl alcohol > tert-butyl alcohol > N,N-dimethylformamide > acetone, and for compounds 2b and 2d, it is : isopropyl alcohol > N,N-dimethylformamide > tert-butyl alcohol > acetone while the arrangement for compound 2c is : isopropyl alcohol > acetone > N,N-dimethylformamide > tert-butyl alcohol. In isopropyl alcohol, all these compounds show the strongest acidic properties, but they show the weakest acidic properties in acetone (for compound 2c in tert-butyl alcohol). This situation may be attributed to the hydrogen bonding between the negative ions formed and the solvent molecules in the amphiprotic neutral solvents.
The degree to which a pure solvent ionizes was represented by its autoprotolysis constant, KHS.
2HS = H 2 S + + S -
For the above reaction the constant is defined by
K HS = [ H 2 S + ] [ S - ]
Autoprotolysis is an acid-base reaction between identical solvent molecules is which some act as an acid and others as a base. Consequently, the extent of an autoprotolysis reaction depends both on the intrinsic acidity and the instrinsic basicity of the solvent. The importance of the autoprotolysis constant in titrations lies in its effect on the completeness of a titration reaction [46]. The exchange of the pKa values with autoprotolysis constant and dielectric constant are given in Figure 6.
As it is well known, the acidity of a compound depends on some factors. The two most important factors are the solvent effect and molecular structure [918]. Table 1 shows that the HNP values and corresponding pKa values obtained from the potentiometric titrations depend on the non-aqueous solvents used and the substituents at C-3, in 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one ring.

Theoretical calculations

The experimental and theoretical 1H and 13C chemical shifts, along with the error for each compound, are presented in Tables 27. A least-squares fit (theoretical calculation values/experimental calculation values) of all data shows a strong linear relationship with a R value of 0.999. This relationship is also reflected in the results for the individual compound, in which R values are 0.999, 0.976 (2a); 0.999 (2b); 0.999, 0.987 (2c); 0.999, 0.979 (2d); 0.999, 0.986 (2e); 0.999, 0.998 (2f). The overall standard error of estimate is 3.17 with the 6-311G basis set. The following correlations δcalc = aδexp+ b were obtained: 2a (13C), SE (standard error) = 3.27, a = 1.04, b = 1.58; 2a (1H), SE = 1.63, a = 0.60, b = 1.59; 2b (13C), SE = 2.94, a = 1.04, b = 1.65; 2c (13C), SE = 3.70, a = 1.03, b = 2.89; 2c (1H), SE = 1.25, a = 0.41, b = 3.83; 2d (13C), SE = 4.23, a = 1.04, b = 2.96; 2d (1H), SE = 1.40, a = 0.62, b = 1.99; 2e (13C), SE = 4.97, a = 1.04, b = 2.72; 2e (1H), SE = 1.28, a = 0.40, b = 3.78; 2f (13C), SE = 2.83, a = 1.18, b = −1.68; 2f (1H), SE = 0.49, a = −0.16, b = 9.20.
A linear correlation between theoretical and experimental carbon and proton chemical shifts was observed according to a, b and R values. A good quantitative agreement within 3.40–8.00 ppm in Tables 27 are observed for the aromatic carbons of these compounds. As can be seen at Tables 27, the errors range from 12.816 to 13.937 ppm for C-9 and C-14 for compound 2a due to attached nitrogen atoms. With the exception of the N-H protons, DFT method is in good agreement with the 1H spectrum of compounds 2a–f. There has occurred an important difference between experimental and theoretical results more than it is expected. The reason why such a result has come into being is that the N-H hydrogen in 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one ring has acidic properties, so that some 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives were titrated potentiometrically with TBAH in different non-aqueous solvents, and the pKa values were found between 8.69 and 16.75 [4,918]. Thus, in the 1H-NMR spectra of the 1,2,4-triazole and 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives, the signals of N-H protons were observed approximately δ 11 and 12 ppm [813,1518,23,24,47,48]. This situation can be attributed to the resonance of the negatively formed ions (Scheme 2). Because of amide N-H proton, the errors range from 4.57 to 5.41 ppm for H-18 in compounds 2a, 2c–f were determined.

Conclusions

In this study, the structures of six new 3-alkyl(aryl)-4-(p-nitrobenzoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4- triazol-5-ones (2a–f) synthesized from the reactions of compounds 1a–f with p-nitrobenzoyl chloride were identified by using elemental analyses and IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and UV spectral data, and these obtained spectral values were seen as compatible with literature [2,4,714]. The newly synthesized compounds 2a–f were titrated potentiometrically with TBAH in four non-aqueous solvents such as acetone, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and N,N-dimethylformamide of relative dielectric permittivity 20.6, 19.4, 12.0 and 36.7, respectively. From the titration curves, the HNP values and the corresponding pKa values were determined for all cases. These new compounds and five recently reported 3-alkyl-4-(2-furoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (3a–c,e,f) were also screened for their antioxidant activities. In addition, correlations between experimental chemical shifts and GIAO-calculated isotropic shielding constants of protons and carbons as obtained from six new 3- alkyl(aryl)-4-(p-nitrobenzoylamino)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones (2a–f) were established in order to assess the performance of NMR spectral calculations. DFT-B3LYP level of the theory 6-311G basis set was considered for geometry optimization and spectral calculations. Linear regressions, σcalc= a + bδexp, yield standard deviations of 1.40–4.18 ppm for hydrogen and carbon atoms.
