ABSTRACT
Reaction of 5-bromo enones with pyrazoles provided a series of unexpected N,O-aminal derivatives, through a 1,4-conjugated addition at the ß-carbon of the 5-bromo enones instead of the expected nucleophilic substitution of the bromine. This reaction also furnished the 1,3-regioisomer of the pyrazole. A similar reaction of pyrazoles using 5-bromo enaminones furnished only N-alkylated pyrazoles-with high regioselectivity and at good yields-through nucleophilic substitution of the bromine.
ABSTRACT
The synthesis of a series of 14 new 1-(3-(aryl-4,5-dihydroisoxazol-5-yl)methyl)-4-trihalomethyl-1H-pyrimidin-2-ones from the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 1-allyl-4-(trihalomethyl)pyrimidin-2(1H)-ones with aryl nitrile oxides is described. Also, the antiproliferative activity of the title compounds was tested against five human tumoral cell lines: MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, ER+ (estrogen receptor positive); HepG-2 (hepatoma); T-24 (bladder cancer); HCT-116 cell (colorectal carcinoma); and CACO-2. The preliminary results are promising, since three compounds presented IC50 values below 2 µM, as well as moderate to high selectivity.

This study reports a facile and controllable synthetic method for the preparation of both 1,3- and 1,5-isomers of 4-(3(5)-aryl-3(5)-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzenesulfonamides, as well as a new series of 4-(3-aryl-5-hydroxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazol-1-yl)benzenesulfonamides, from the cyclocondensation reaction of 4-aryl-1,1,1-trifluoro-4-methoxybut-3-en-2-ones or 1-aryl-4,4,4-trifluoro-butane-1,3-diones or their enolic forms with 4-hydrazinylbenzenesulfonamide. All compounds of the new series of 3-substituted 1-(4-benzenesulfonamide)-5-hydroxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazoles were tested for their effect on a pathological pain model in mice. The compounds 3a, 3b, 3c, 3e, and 3f presented anti-hyperalgesic action, while the compounds 3a, 3c, 3d, 3f, and 3g exhibited anti-edematogenic effects, without causing locomotive disorders in animals, thus making them comparable to Celecoxib in an arthritic pain model.
