The title nitro­thio­phene compound, C13H9N3O6S2, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit; the mol­ecular structure of each is stabilized by an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The two mol­ecules adopt flattened but slightly different conformations, viz. the dihedral angle between the thio­phene ring and the essentailly planar 1,2-benzisothia­zole fragment (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0227 and 0.0108 Å, respectively) is 15.62 (11)° in one mol­ecule and 5.46 (11)° in the other. In the crystal, mol­ecules are arranged into layers parallel to (-111) with weak Car—H⋯O inter­actions formed within the layer. N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds also occur. There are ππ stacking inter­actions between the mol­ecules in neighbouring layers, the distance between the centroids of the 1,2-benzisothia­zole benzene rings being 3.8660 (16) Å. Moreover, dipolar S=O⋯C=O inter­actions with an O⋯C distance of 2.893 (3) Å are observed between the symmetry-independent mol­ecules in different layers. The title compound showed weak inhibition of HLE (human leukocyte elastase).

Elastases are endopeptidases (serine proteases) which by definition are able to solubilize elastin by proteolytic cleavage and are possibly the most destructive enzymes in the human body, having the ability to degrade virtually all connective tissue components (Bode et al. 1989). Uncontrolled proteolytic degradation by elastase has been implicated in a number of pathological conditions including ARDS (Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome) and lung injury, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary emphysema, smoking related chronic bronchitis and rheumatoid arthritis (Edwards et al. 1994). Therefore considerable research has been focused on developing potent inhibitors or drugs against HLE (Human Leukocyte Elastase). Potent elastase inhibitors are based on peptidic, heterocyclic and non-heterocyclic scaffolds. Of interest are the heterocyclic inhibitors as these small molecules potentially offer advantages over the larger, peptide based inhibitors due to their increased proteinase stability, increased oral absorption and decreased structural complexity. In our earlier reports, we described peptidic and heterocyclic elastase inhibitors and illustrated that the pseudosaccharin amine derivatives are potential inhibitors of elastase (Rode et al. 2005, Rode et al. 2006). Pseudosaccharin amines were further explored to synthesize analogues containing thiophene and thiazole components. During the nitration of the thiophene analogue 2 (see Figure 1), we observed the electrophilic attack of a nitro group at the α - position of thiophene to produce 3. Here we report the structural assignment of the thiophene derivative 3 using NMR spectroscopy and single crystal XRD. Compound 3 show weak inhibition of PPE (Porcine Pancreatic Elastase) and HLE.

The synthesis of pseudosaccharin chloride 1 (see Figure 1) was carried out according to the literature procedure (Wade et al., 1979). The reaction between 1 and methyl 3-aminothiophene-2-carboxylate resulted in a brown colored solid 2. This solid was treated in a nitrating mixture at -30 °C yielding C13H9N3O6S2, 3. The compound was further analysed as decribed below.

Compound 3 crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit (Z=4). An ORTEP view of the asymmetric unit is shown in Figure 2. The molecules are chemically identical and the most significant differences are in dihedral angles between related NO2 groups and the aromatic ring and dihedral angle between thiophene and benzene mean planes. To be more specific: the torsion angles differ by ca. 14° [C9—C10—N3—O3 -9.3 (4) ° and C22—C23—N6—O9 4.9 (4)°] and the dihedral angles by ca. 10° [benzene C1-C6 and thiophene C8-C11-S2 form angle 15.50 (13)°, the related rings 5.41 (13)°]. Apart from that the molecules are very similar, overlay of the molecules by fitting all 24 non-hydrogen atoms gives mean r.m.s. deviation of 0.217 Å with maximum distance of 0.552 Å between O9 and O3 in nitro groups (Mercury 3.0, Macrae et al. 2006).

The crystal packing is presented in Figure 3. Both molecules are placed in a layer parallel to the (-1 1 1) plane. Such planes spread throughout the crystal forming specific packing pattern. The only intramolecular hydrogen bonds are N2—H···O5 and N5—H···O11 in both molecules, respectively (Table 1). There are also weak C(aromatic)—H···O interactions between the molecules ( Table 1). One can also expect stacking interactions between the aromatic rings, but analysis with PLATON (Spek, 2003) reveals that most of the rings are too far away. The closest benzene rings C14–C19 are related by the symmetry center at 3/2, 0, 1 and their centroids are separated by the distance of 3.8660 (16) Å with perpendicular distance between the planes of 3.5883 (11) Å. Other ring centroids are separated by more than 4 Å. Noteworthy, short O1···C25i and O9ii···C12 contacts resemble transient states in early stages of the nucleophilic attack of negatively charged oxygen atoms on the partly positively loaded carbon atom in carbonyl groups.

General description and spectral properties

In the 1H NMR spectrum of 3, a sharp singlet appeared at δ 8.55 p.p.m. assignable to a proton of the thiophene ring. Information obtained from 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DEPT, HMQC and HMBC reveals that a carbon at δ 125.58 p.p.m. is assignable to a thiophene carbon bearing a proton, while carbons at δ 123.06, 133.65, 134.30, 121.74 p.p.m. are assignable to CH of the pseudosaccharin scaffold. A coupling is observed between a proton of the pseudosaccharin scaffold and a carbon at δ 157 p.p.m., allowing us to assign δ 157 p.p.m. for the carbon of C=N. Also a coupling between the methoxy group signal at δ 3.93 p.p.m. of thiophene scaffold and that of the carbonyl group at δ 161 p.p.m. was observed in HMBC. No coupling was observed between a proton at δ 8.55 p.p.m. (thiophene bearing proton) and any of the carbons of thiophene ring. If both the nitro-isomers i.e. 4-nitro analog (structure not shown) and 5-nitro analog (3) could have been isolated, that would have helped to solve the structure of 3 based on the relative chemical shifts. But only one isomer was obtained. Although the possibility of formation of the other isomer cannot be ruled out as in the 1H NMR spectrum of the crude product, more products were indicated but these products could easily be neglected in crystallization and only one isomer was obtained as a major product. Therefore the structure of the nitro thiophene analogue was determined by X-ray crystallography and in fact the product was found to be the 5'-nitro analogue 3. It is important to note that the thiophene undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions slowly and selectively at an α-position to sulfur rather than at β-position. The preferential electrophilic attack at an α-position in thiophene may be explained on the basis of stability of the transition state (Gupta et al., 1999).

Compound 3 was tested for its ability to inhibit PPE (Porcine Pancreatic Elastase) and HLE (Human Leukocyte Elastase) activity in the biochemical assay. More information on elastase can be found elsewhere (e.g. Bode et al. (1989); Edwards & Bernstein, 1994; Rode et al., 2005). The detailed description of these biochemical assays is reported in our earlier work (Rode et al., 2006). It is important to note that compound 3 inhibited 32% activity of PPE at 100 µM concentration and 15% activity of HLE at 200 µM concentrations. Although 3 has shown weak inhibition of HLE and PPE, it may serve as a starting point for developing potent HLE inhibitors.

Synthesis of 2

3-Chlorobenzo[d]isothiazole 1,1-dioxide 1 (Figure 1) (3.00 g, 14.88 mmol) and 2.33 g of methyl 3-aminothiophene-2-carboxylate (14.88 mmol) were refluxed in 70 ml of dioxane. After cooling to room temperature, the solid was filtered off and washed with a little acetone. The solid was dried to give the analytically pure compound. Yield: 3.96 g (83%); M.p. 284–287°C, Rf = 0.87 (AcOEt/PE 8:2).

Synthesis of 3

To a cooled (-30 °C) and stirred solution of 2 (2.00 g, 6.20 mmol) in 95% H2SO4 (10 ml), 2 ml of concentrated HNO3 were added. The mixture was stirred at -30 °C for 45 minutes and allowed to warm to room temperature. The viscous liquid was poured on ice (10 g) and the resulting aq. phase extracted with dichloromethane (3 × 100 ml). The organic phase was separated, dried with sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The solid was crystallized from dichloromethane: methanol (9:1). Yield: 0.40 g (18%); M.p. 285–287°C (MeOH/CH2Cl2); Rf = 0.80 (AcOEt/PE 8:2).

Experimental. Column chromatography (CC) was performed by using Merck silica gel 60, Nr. 7734. Melting points (M.p.) were determined by MEL-TEMP (Mel-Temp laboratories Inc, USA) melting point apparatus and are uncorrected. Analytical TLC was performed on Merck TLC plates (Aluminium plates coated with silica gel 60 F254, No. 5554). Visualization of spots was carried out by using ultraviolet illumination (λ = 254 nm) and analytical data are reported as "ratio of front"-values (Rf -value). Infrared spectra were obtained by using an IR spectrophotometer, Perkin-Elmer 1600 series FTIR. Absorption is reported in relation to wavenumber (¯ν). 1H NMR spectra were measured with a Bruker DPX 200 (200 MHz) spectrometer, and 13C NMR spectra were measured with a Bruker DPX 200 (50 MHz), both at 25° C with tetramethylsilane (TMS) as an internal standard. Chemical shifts are reported as parts per million (p.p.m., δ units). Coupling constants are reported in Hz. The spectra were analysed by MESTREC NMR software. The following abbreviations were used -s: singlet, bs: broad singlet, d: doublet, m: multiplet. Analytical purity was assessed at 30° C by RP-HPLC using LaChrom apparatus series 7000, Merck Hitachi (Pump: L-7100, Diode-Array-Detector L-7450, Auto sampler L-7200, thermostat column L-7350, Solvent degasser L-7612, Interface D-7000). Column used was LiChrospher 250–4, RP-18, 5 µm. The measurement was carried out at λ max 220 nm unless otherwise stated. All solvents were used without further purification. 3-Aminothiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester was purchased from Aldrich.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
