Abstract
A simple and convenient method for the synthesis of new methyl 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)- and 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-4H-polyfluorochromen-3-carboxylates as analogs of natural methoxy-containing flavones is proposed. As a result of their directed modification under basic conditions, 7-imidazolyl-substituted derivatives were obtained. In aqueous-organic medium under basic conditions, 5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-3-(methoxycarbonyl)flavones were transformed into 6,8-difluoro-5-hydroxy-7-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)flavones as a result of flavone-5-hydroxyflavone rearrangement, while 6,7,8-trifluorinated analogs underwent a flavone-coumarin rearrangement to give 6,8-difluoro-3-(hydroxyarylidene)-7-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)coumarins under the same conditions. Acid hydrolysis of methyl polyfluoroflavone-3-carboxylates allowed to obtain 2-aryl-4H-polyfluorochromen-4-ones. Evaluation of the antiviral activity of the synthesized compounds against influenza A (H1N1) and Coxsackie B3 viruses showed that 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5,6,8-trifluoro-7-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-4H-chromene-4-one has the most promising properties.
