ABSTRACT
Synthesis of a series of new urea and thiourea compounds have been accomplished by the reaction of 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-amine with various phenyl isocyanates and isothiocyanates. These compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity by using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and nitric oxide (NO) radical scavenging assay methods including IC50 values. Some of the compounds exhibited potential activity in the two tested methods. Among the series of compounds, urea derivative linked with 4-bromo phenyl ring (4b), and thiourea derivatives bonded with phenyl ring (4e), 4-fluoro phenyl ring (4f) and 4-nitro pheyl ring (4h) were found to exhibit promising anti oxidant activity with low IC50 values. Where four of the title comounds exhibited higher bindig energies than the reference compound (Imatinib) in in silico molecular docking studies with Aromatase. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, 1H, 13C NMR and mass spectral data.

A series of new urea/thiourea derivatives 3a-j were synthesized by simple addition reaction of functionalized phenyl isocyanates/isothiocyanates 2a-j with N-(5-amino-2-methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidinamine (imatinib intermediate) (1) in the presence of 1,4-dimethyl piperazine (DMPZ) as a base, and another series of new sulfonamide/carbamate derivatives 5a-k were synthesized by reacting 1 with various substituted aromatic sulfonyl chlorides 4a-f and aromatic/aliphatic chloroformates 4g-k in the presence of DMPZ as a base. The title compounds 3a-j and 5a-k were characterized by IR, 1H, 13C NMR and mass spectral data. Antimicrobial, antioxidant and in silico molecular docking studies were made against aromatase.
