Antioxidant properties of butylated phenol with oxadiazole and hydrazone moiety at ortho position supported by DFT study.

ABSTRACT: Two series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives at the sixth position of the 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol group were synthesized. The antioxidant properties were evaluated by DPPH and FRAP assays. Compound 3 showed significant antioxidant activity, while its alkyl derivatives exhibited decreased antioxidant activity in both assays. The preferential antioxidant mechanism of the reactive antioxidant molecules prepared from the further reaction of compound 3 to produce compounds 4 and 6 was investigated using density functional theory. Calculating their comprehensive reactivity descriptors was used to assess their antioxidant reactivity. According to the calculated descriptors, compounds 4c and 6d are the most reactive antioxidants within their own group compared to the other derivative moieties. The results are identical to ascorbic acid's, indicating that they have similar activity. The experimental data and the calculated descriptors are in good agreement. The nature of the substituents and their positions have a significant impact on the derivatives' antioxidant capabilities.

Project description:Background: This research centers on the development and spectroscopic characterization of new quinazolin-4(3H)-one-isoxazole derivatives (5a-e). The aim was to investigate the regioselectivity of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition involving arylnitriloxides and N-propargylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, and to assess the antioxidant properties of the synthesized compounds. The synthetic approach started with the alkylation of quinazolin-4(3H)-one using propargyl bromide, followed by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. Methods: The structural identification of the products was performed using various spectroscopic methods, such as IR, 1H, 13C, and HMBC NMR, HRMS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. To further examine the regioselectivity of the cycloaddition, Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level were employed. Additionally, the antioxidant potential of the compounds was tested in vitro using DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl)radical scavenging assays. The reaction selectively produced 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles, with the regiochemical outcome being independent of the substituents on the phenyl ring. Results: Theoretical calculations using DFT were in agreement with the experimental results, revealing activation energies of -81.15 kcal/mol for P-1 and -77.32 kcal/mol for P-2, favoring the formation of P-1. An analysis of the Intrinsic Reaction Coordinate (IRC) confirmed that the reaction proceeded via a concerted but asynchronous mechanism. The antioxidant tests demonstrated that the synthesized compounds exhibited significant radical scavenging activity, as shown in the DPPH assay. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of arylnitriloxides with N-propargylquinazolin-4(3H)-one successfully resulted in novel 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles. Conclusions: The experimental findings were well-supported by theoretical predictions, and the antioxidant assays revealed strong activity, indicating the potential for future biological applications of these compounds.
