ABSTRACT: A series of new Baylis–Hillman derived cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives have been synthesized by the condensation reaction between Baylis-Hillman bromides and quinazolinones in a simple and efficient manner in less reaction time with high yields. Methyl quinazolinone yields two isomers of Baylis-Hillman derived 3-N-cinnamyl substituted quinazoline-4-one derivatives and 4-O-cinnamyl substituted quinazoline derivatives, and the structures were confirmed by X-ray crystallography. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by their spectral data and evaluated their antibacterial and antifungal activity. The compounds (3a, 4a) without any substitution at the aryl group exhibited good antibacterial activity especially on S. epidermidis (gram positive), Replacement of hydrogen atom of the aryl group by CF3 (3c, 4c) or by fluorine (3g) exhibited significant antibacterial activity on both gram-positive (S. epidermidis) and gram-negative (K. pneumonia) organisms compared to other compounds. All the compounds exhibited interesting antifungal activity on C. albicans microorganism exclusively and inactive on the remaining organisms. Compound 3a and 4f exhibited good antifungal activity compared to the other compounds.

INTRODUCTION: Research in heterocyclic chemistry has gained thrust in recent times because more than half of the biologically active molecules belong to various classes of heterocycles 1-8. 1, 3-Diaza-heterocycles like pyrimidine and quinazoline derivatives, quinazolinones in particular, have been identified as potential drug molecules against various types of diseases. Innumerable quinazolinone alkaloids isolated from plants, animals, and microorganisms shows different types of pharmacological activities 9-15.
Rutaecarpine and Evodiamine Fig. 1, alkaloidal constituents of the Chinese herbal drugs Wu-Chu- Ru 16, 17 Shih-Hu 18, 19 and Febrifugine 20 alkaloids isolated from roots of the Dichroa Febrifuga plant contain the quinazolinone ring system in their structures.
FIG. 1: BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE QUINAZOLINONE DERIVATIVES
The unique scaffold and pharmacological properties associated with these types of compounds attracted the attention of chemists towards the syntheses of various types of analogs, and this led to the identification of novel quinazolinone derivatives showing a wide variety of activities like antiallergic, 21 anticonvulsant, 22-24 sedative-hypnotic, 25 antihypertensive 26 and also anticancer 27, 28, etc.
Antibacterial and antifungal diseases are very common all over the world. Currently used antimicrobial agents are not effective due to the resistance developed by the microbes, and therefore, it is an ongoing effort to synthesize new antimicrobial agents. Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with substitution at position 3, has been reported to be associated with anti-microbial properties.29-36 Examples of these substitutions were substituted phenyl ring moieties 29, 30 bridged phenyl rings 31, 32 heterocyclic rings 33 and aliphatic systems 34, 35.
The Baylis–Hillman reaction 37-41 has attracted the attention of organic chemists as this reaction provides synthetically useful multifunctional molecules. Inspired with the biological profile of quinazolinones and their increasing importance in pharmaceutical and biological fields, and in connection with our research on the design and synthesis of biologically active and pharmacologically important new heterocycles and their derivatives 42-48 it was thought worthwhile to synthesize the title compounds with a view to obtain certain new chemical entities and to have them evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. On the other hand, to the best of my knowledge previously, there is no report, on the synthesis of Baylis-Hillman derived 3-substituted cinnamyl quinazolinone derivatives. In this article, we illustrate the simple and efficient synthesis of Baylis-Hillman derived 3-N-cinnamyl substituted quinazoline-4-one derivatives and 4-O-cinnamyl substituted quinazoline derivatives and screened for their antimicrobial activity.
EXPERIMENTAL:
Materials: All chemicals were of research grade and were used as obtained from Aldrich. The reactions were carried out in a round-bottomed flask of 25 ml capacity at room temperature in an efficient fume hood. The progress of all the reactions was monitored by TLC. Melting points were determined on a MEL-TEMP II melting point apparatus and were uncorrected. IR spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer FT-IR spectrophotometer. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Gemini 200 MHz, Bruker Avance 300 MHz, 75 MHz spectrometers; TMS was used as an internal standard in CDCl3. Mass spectra were recorded on VG Micro mass 7070 H (EI), QSTAR XL High-resolution mass spectrometer (HRMS), Thermo fining an ESI ion trap Mass Spectrometer and a GC-MS system on an Agilent 6890 series. Commercially available organic compounds were used without further purification except for the solvent, which was distilled by known methods before use. X-ray data were collected at room temperature using a Bruker Smart Apex CCD diffracto meter with graphite mono chromated Mo Ka radiation (l=0.71073Å) by the ω-scan method 49.
Preliminary lattice parameters and orientation matrices were obtained from four sets of frames. Integration and scaling of intensity data were accomplished using the program SAINT 49. The structures were solved by direct methods using SHELXS97 50 and refinement was carried out by full-matrix least-squares technique using SHELXL-97 50. Anisotropic displacement parameters were calculated for all non-hydrogen atoms. All H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding on their parent C atoms, with C-H = 0.93-0.98 Å, and with Uiso (H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H and 1.2Ueq(c) for other H atoms. The methyl groups were allowed to rotate but not to tip.
General Experimental Procedure: To a solution of quinazolin-4(3H)-one 2a (0.292 g, 2 mmol) in DMF (3 mL), oven dried and ground K2CO3 (0.331 g, 1.2 mmol) was added and stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. Bayllis Hillman bromide (Z)- methyl 2- (bromomethyl)-3-phenylacrylate 1a (0.51 g, 2 mmol) in 2ml DMF was added slowly and stirred at room temperature. Progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. After completion (1 h), the reaction mixture was diluted with water to remove excess K2CO3 and the obtained solid was filtered, washed with water and dried to obtain compound 3a in 95% yield. A similar procedure was adopted for the preparation of other quinazolinone derivatives. In case of compounds 3i-j the obtained solid was further purified by recrystallization with hexane: ethyl acetate (3:1) to get exclusively Z-isomer.
In case of compounds 4a-f and 5a-f the obtained solid mixture was further purified by column chromatography (60-120) mesh, with eluent, hexane: ethyl acetate and the pure compounds of 4a-f (8:2) and 5a-f (7:3) were separated.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Baylis-Hillman bromides (cinnamyl bromides) 1a-j used in the reactions were synthesized according to the literature procedure 51 Scheme 1. Quinazolin-4(3H)-one (2a) and 2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (2b) were prepared based on the earlier procedure 52, 53 from anthranilic acid and formamide, acetamide respectively in microwave.
SCHEME 1: SYNTHESIS OF CINNAMYL BROMIDES FROM BAYLIS-HILLMAN ADDUCTS
The Baylis-Hillman derived 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives were prepared by the reaction between Baylis-Hillman bromides 1a-j and quinazolin-4(3H)-one (2a), in presence of a base. During the optimization studies, the reaction was carried out with cinnamyl bromide 1a with quinazolinone 2a in different bases such as NaH, KOH, K2CO3, in DMF, NaOMe in MeOH, and in NEt3. It was observed that with K2CO3, in DMF the desired 3-cinnamyl quinazolinone derivative 3a was obtained at ambient temperature in 1h with 95 % yield Scheme 2. In order to evaluate the generality of this method, several analogues of 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives 3b-j were synthesized by the reaction of quinazolin-4(3H)-one (2a) with different Baylis-Hillman cinnamyl bromides 1b-j Scheme 2. The reactions proceeded very efficiently with good yields in less reaction time (40–60 min) Table 1. Withdrawing substituted Baylis-Hillman bromides produce the corresponding 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives in less reaction time with high yields compared to compounds with donating substituent. The structures of 3a-j were firmly established by well-defined 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, and HRMS. As the ester-substituted Baylis-Hillman bromides are with a Z-stereochemistry, they produced 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives 3a-h with E-stereochemistry exclusively which is confirmed by the crystal structure of 3c.

The cyano substituted Baylis-Hillman bromides are with a mixture of E and Z-isomers in which E-isomer as major product based on earlier reports; they produced 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives 3i-j with Z and E-isomers. These compounds were recrystallized with a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate (3:1) to produce Z-isomer exclusively. It was confirmed by the crystal structure obtained for compound 3i. Hence the compounds used for bio-evaluation are with E-stereochemistry for compounds 3a-h and with Z- stereochemistry for compounds 3i-j.

To demonstrate the general utility of the method, 2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, different Baylis-Hillman derived cinnamyl 2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives were prepared Scheme 3 Table 2. Baylis-Hillman bromide esters 1a-f and 2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (2b), were reacted in the presence of a base K2CO3 in DMF at room temperature and the reactions were completed within 1 h. TLC monitoring of the reaction shows complete consumption of the reactants and appearance of two new products. The reaction was quenched with water and the obtained solid was filtered, washed again with water and dried. The two new products were separated by column chromatography and fully characterized by IR, 1HNMR, 13C-NMR, and HRMS and shown in Table 2. Amongst the two products, the more polar products 4a-f were identified as 3-N-cinnamyl substituted 2-methyl quinazolin4-one compounds and the less polar products 5a-f were identified as4-O-cinnamyl substituted 2-methylquinazoline compounds. These indicate alkylation of 2-methyl quinazolin-4(3H)-one produces two isomers, one with N-substitution and another with O-substitution. The percentage formation of N-isomer is almost equal to O-isomer identified from the isolated yields formed. The formation of O-isomer may be due to the steric effect and electronic factor of methyl substitution at the 2-position with the cinnamyl bromide during alkylation. The two isomers formed in the reaction were confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Biological Evaluation: All the synthesized compounds are screened for their antimicrobial activity by both dilution method recommended by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory (NCCL) standards 54. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of various substituted quinazolinone and methyl quinazolinone derivatives were tested against three representative Gram-positive organisms viz. Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylo coccus epidermidis and three Gram-negative organisms viz. Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumonia against standards penicillin and streptomycin. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values are presented in Table 3. It has been observed that the test compounds exhibited moderate antibacterial activity, against all the tested organisms. The compound 3a, without any substituent at the aryl group exhibited good antibacterial activity especially on S. epidermidis (gram positive). Replacement of hydrogen at the ortho position of the aryl group by CF3 (3c) and the para position of the aryl group by fluoro (3g) exhibited significant activity on both gram-positive (S. epidermidis) and gram-negative (K. pneumonia) organisms. Baylis-Hillman derived 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives with ester group 3a-h are more active compared to cyano substituted Baylis- Hillman derived 3-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone derivatives 3i-j.N-cinnamyl substituted 2-methylquinazoline compounds 4a-fare showing better antibacterial activity compared to the O-cinnamyl substituted 2-methyl quinazolinone compounds 5a-f. 4a and 4c are showing moderate antibacterial activity. Hence the compounds with fluorine, CF3 substituents have significant antibacterial activity compared to the other compounds.

CONCLUSION: We developed a new simple and efficient method for the synthesis of a series of new Baylis-Hillman derived N-cinnamyl substituted quinazolinone and 2-methylquinazolinone derivatives, and O-cinnamyl substituted 2-methyl quinazoline derivatives in good yields. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. All compounds are found to be active against all bacterial test strain. Amongst ester substituted compounds, (3a, 3c, 3g and 4a, 4c) shows good antibacterial activity in comparison to cyano substitution. Similarly, compounds with fluorine substituents are active on both gram-positive (S. epidermidis) and gram-negative (K. pneumoniae) organisms. All the compounds show moderate anti-fungal activity against C. albicans. Compound 3a, 4f shows high antifungal activity than the other compounds.
