the brønsted acidic ionic liquid ([bmim]hso4) catalyzed three-component synthesis of 2h-indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-trione derivatives at room temperature. the integrity of the ionic liquid remains reasonably unchanged when it is separated from the reaction mixture by water extraction, as it can be recycled several times without any loss of activity in each of the title syntheses. the products a...

The title compound, C21H16N2O3, consists of an indazolone moiety, bearing a phenyl group, fused to a phthalazine ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.018 Å). The phenyl ring is almost normal to the mean plane of the five-membered ring of the indazolone moiety, making a dihedral angle of 89.64 (7)°. The six-membered ring of the indazolone moiety has an envelope conformation, with the central methyl...

In the title compound, C22H18N2O4, the three fused rings of the pyrazolo-phthalazine moiety are coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.027 Å). The cyclo-hexene ring fused to the pyrazolidine ring, so forming the indazolophthalazine unit, has a half-chair conformation. The benzene ring is almost normal to the mean plane of the pyrazolo-phthalazine moiety, with a dihedral angle of 87.21 (6)° between thei...

Phthalazine derivatives are biological potential compounds having diverse biological activities. In this review, briefly discuss about the effect of phthalazine derivatives on cardiac and kidney functions. A series of 4-(4-bromophenyl) phthalazine and phthalazinone analogs connected through 2-propanol spacer to N-substituted piperazine residue were tested for their effect on β-adrenergic blocki...

The bacterial burden on human health is quickly outweighing available therapeutics. Our long-term goal is the development of antimicrobials with the potential for broad-spectrum activity. We previously reported phthalazine-based inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) with potent activity against Bacillus anthracis, a major component of Project BioShield. The most active molecule, named RA...

A series of novel 1-anilino-4-(arylsulfanylmethyl)phthalazines were designed and synthesized. The structures of all the compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, elemental analysis and MS. The analogues 1-(3-chloro-4-fluoroanilino)-4-(3,4- difluorophenylthio-methyl)phthalazine (12) and 1-(4-fluoro-3-trifluoromethylanilino)-4- (3,4-difluorophenyl-thiomethyl)phthalazine (13) showed higher activity ...

The enzymes aldehyde oxidase and xanthine oxidase catalyze the oxidation of a wide range of N-heterocycles and aldehydes. These enzymes are widely known for their role in the metabolism of N-heterocyclic xenobiotics where they provide a protective barrier by aiding in the detoxification of ingested nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Isovanillin has been shown to inhibit the metabolism of aromati...

The reaction of 2-carboxy-benzaldehyde and hydrazine hydrate unexpectedly yielded the title compound, C(16)H(10)N(2)O(3), which comprises one phthalide ring, one phthalazine system and a chiral centre. The phthalide unit is almost perpendicular to the phthalazine system, forming a dihedral angle of 87.1 (3)°. The packing is governed by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions, forming layers p...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the in vitro leishmanicidal activity of imidazole-based (1-4) and pyrazole-based (5-6) benzo[g]phthalazine derivatives against Leishmania infantum and Leishmania braziliensis. METHODS The in vitro activity of compounds 1-6 was assayed on extracellular promastigote and axenic amastigote forms, and on intracellular amastigote forms of the parasites. Infectivity and cytoto...
