Abstract
ABSTRACT Chemical reactivity of 2-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one (1) toward various reagents such as hydroxyaldehyde, ketone, α,β unsaturated carbonyl compounds, heterocyclic amine, hydrazine, and hydrazide to give unpredicative opened and fused heterocyclic systems was investigated. Moreover, treatment of compound 1 with bromoester to afford the respective fused system, 2-methyl-2-phenylfuro[3,2-d][1,3]oxathiol-5(6H)-one (6) was implemented. Besides, 1H–1H nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopy was used for full confirmation of the compound 19. In addition, the density functional theory modeling study outcomes were discussed and all of the new synthesized compounds were evaluated as antioxidants and cytotoxicity assay against hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
The 1,3-oxathiolan-5-one shows unique chemical reactivity, leading to various compounds with potential antioxidant and cytotoxicity properties against hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
