Аннотация

The new fluorophores of the 3H-imidazo[4,5-e][2,1]benzoxazoles series were synthesized by the regioselective nitration of 3-alkyl- 8-phenyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-e][2,1]benzoxazoles. The latter compounds were obtained from the reaction of 1-alkyl-5-nitro-1H-benzimidazoles with benzyl cyanide in basic MeOH solution. The structures of synthesized compounds were established using spectral (UV-vis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and NOESY) and analytical data. Furthermore, it was found that these fluorophores underwent thermal rearrangement to new 5H-imidazo[4,5-f][2,1,3]benzoxadiazole 3-oxides in AcOH in moderate yields. The fluorescence properties and antibacterial activities of new compounds against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial species were also studied.
