Abstract

Objectives: This paper aims to describe the synthesis of a series of novel 5-substituted dihydropyrimidine derivatives using Fe-(III)-montmorillonite as an efficient and reusable catalyst.

Methods: The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectroscopy methods. The title compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity, and molecular docking studies were conducted.

Results: The results revealed that the catalyst significantly enhanced the reaction time and product yield. The antimicrobial activity results indicated that compounds 4c, 4e and 4k exhibited promising antimicrobial activity against the tested microorganisms.

Conclusion: The catalyst can be recycled at least two to three times without a noticeable decrease in its catalytic activity. The synthesized compounds displayed promising antimicrobial activity.

أهداف البحث: تهدف هذه الورقة إلى وصف تصنيع سلسلة حديثة من مشتقات بيريميدين ثنائي الهيدرجة خماسي الاستبدال٬ باستخدام مونتموريلونايت الحديديك كعامل مساعد فعال وقابل لإعادة الاستخدام.

طرق البحث: تم التأكد من تركيب المركبات المنتَجة باستخدام جهاز ”فورييه“ لتحويل طيف الأشعة تحت الحمراء٬ والرنين المغناطيسي النووي والطرق الطيفية الجماعية. كما تم فحص المركبات المعنونة لمعرفة قدراتها كمضادات للميكروبات والالتحام الجزيئي.

النتائج: أظهرت النتائج بأن العامل المساعد ذو قيمة في ما يتعلق بمدة التفاعل وكمية المنتج المُحصَّل. كما تشير النتائج المتعلقة بالنشاط المضاد للميكروبات إلى أن المركبات ”٤ سي “و ” ٤ إي “ و ” ٤ كَي “ أظهرت نشاطا واعدا مضادا للميكروبات ضد الميكروبات المختبرة.

الاستنتاجات: من الممكن إعادة تدوير العامل المساعد مرتان إلى ثلاث مرات على الأقل دون انخفاض ملحوظ في فاعليته كعامل مساعد. وأظهرت المركبات المصنّعة نشاطا واعدا مضادا للميكروبات.
