Mesoionic Compounds an Unconventional Class of Aromatic Heterocycles GENERAL I ARTICLE Mesoionic Compounds An Unconventional Class of Aromatic Heterocycles Bharati V Badami Mesoionic compounds are distinct types of heterocycles which belong to the class of non-benzenoid aromatics. Sydnone, the representative mesoionic compound has been extensively studied because of its unusual structure, chemi­ cal properties and synthetic utility. Sydnone is used as a versatile synthon in heterocyclic synthesis. This article gives a brief account of the comparative studies of the Bharati V Badami was a Professor of structural features of mesoionic compounds and other Organic Chemistry heteroaromatic systems.

There are, in addition, a large number of aromatic compounds structurally unrelated to benzene, and are classified as 'non-benzenoid aromatic com­ pounds'. The criteria to identify the aromatic character of a planar, fully conjugated cyclic system are as follows. • All the atoms comprising the ring must be Sp2 hybridised with a p-orbital for sideways overlapping . • The ring must have (4n+2)n electrons (Huckel's rule) de­ localised over all the atoms of the ring.

Synthesis and Reactivity of Sydnone Derived 1,3,4-Oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones. 5-(Bromomethyl)- and 5-(trichloromethyl)-3-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones were synthesized from bromocarbonyl hydrazine intermediate salts and acid halides to provide further evidence for our proposed mechanism for the formation of oxadiazolone ring systems from sydnones. 5-(Bromomethyl)-3-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one was a compound of interest due to its SN2 possibilities and three potential sites of diversification. The procedure to synthesize 5-(bromomethyl)-3-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol- 2(3H)-one was developed originally by Madaram in the Turnbull lab, but was further optimized in the present work by altering the time, temperature and stoichiometric equivalents of the acid halide to provide high purity and excellent yields of the product.

INTRODUCTION The effectiveness of mesoionic compounds as a chemotherapeutic agent is well established [1,2,3,4] and their chemistry has been studied. A literature survey revealed that sydnones display potent biological activity [5,6,7,8,9]. Feprosidnine (sydnophen) is a CNS- stimulant drug in which the sydnone imine group is found as sub-structure [10]. Sydnones occupy a unique place among mesoionic compounds [11]. The sydnone ring displays electron-withdrawing character at N3 and electron-donating properties at C4.

Sydnone can be defined as a five-membered pseudo-aromatic heterocyclic molecule. Classically, 1,2,3-oxadiazole forms the main skeleton of sydnone. The molecule has delocalized balanced positive and negative charges. The five annular atoms share the positive charge and the enolate-like exocyclic oxygen atom bears the negative charge. The hydrogen atom at the position C4 was proved to have acidic and nucleophilic functionalities making the sydnone ring reactive towards electrophilic reagents. These unique chemical features enable sydnones to interact with biomolecules resulting in important therapeutic effects like anticancer, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Consequently, we aim from the current article to review the available chemical and pharmacological information on sydnone and its derivatives.

Presently, the metabolites of mesocarb are not commercially available, and additionally, the exact chemical structures of several mesocarb metabolites have not been solved yet. The aim of this WADA-funded project was to synthesize six potential mono-, di-, and trihydroxylated regioisomeric metabolites of mesocarb. The metabolites were compared using an LC-MS/MS-method with the in vitro synthesized mesocarb metabolites using human liver enzymes and with the in vivo formed metabolites extracted from human urine after oral administration of mesocarb.

The most important member of mesoionic category of compounds is the sydnone ring system. Sydnones are mesoionic compounds having the 1, 2, 3-oxadiazole skeleton and unique variation in electron density around the ring. These characteristics have encouraged extensive study of the chemical, physical, and biological properties of sydnones, as well as their potential application as antioxidants. This chapter covers synthesis and antioxidant activity of most potent molecules having sydnone ring. Most potent antioxidant molecules are 3-(2-carboxyphenyl) sydnone, 3-(2,4-dimethoxy-5-chlorophenyl) sydnone have IC50(µM) values are 0.11 and 0.16 respectively. Similarly compounds 4-[1-oxo-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-propenyl]-3-(4- fluorophenyl) sydnones, 4-[1-oxo-3-(4-N-dimethylphenyl)-2-propenyl]-3-(4-fluorophenylsydnones, 4-[1-oxo-3-(4-N- dimethylphenyl)-2-propenyl]-3-(4-chlorophenyl) sydnones, 4-[1-oxo-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-propenyl]-3-(4- chlorophenyl) sydnones are highly potent antioxidant activity with IC50 (µM), values are 4.18, 5.12, 4.15.
