1. Introduction

β-Lactams, being a structural unit found in the most widely used antibiotics [1], have occupied a basic position in medicinal chemistry for almost a century now. With the microbes basic position in medicinal chemistry for almost a century now. With the microbes responding to the traditional antibiotics through β-lactamases, the need for novel antibiotics prevails, making synthesis of newer β-lactams ever more important. In addition to their use as antibiotics, β-lactams are increasingly being used as synthons for other biologically important molecules [2-11]. β-Lactams have been found to act as cholesterol acyl transferase inhibitors [12], thrombin inhibitors [13], human cytomegalovirus protease inhibitors [14], matrix metalloprotease inhibitors [15], cysteine protease [16], and apoptosis inductors [17]. Spirocyclic β-lactams have attracted attention as they have been shown to be β-turn mimetics [18,19] and precursors for α,α-disubstituted β-amino acids [20]. The chartelline has a spiro-β-lactam moiety in its structure marine natural products [21]. It has been found that spiro-β-lactams act as poliovirus and human rhinovirus 3C-proteinases inhibitors [22]. These compounds are mostly synthesized by cycloaddition to an exocyclic bond. Several syntheses of spiro-β-lactams have been reported [23-42]. Polycyclic aromatic β-lactams have shown anticancer and other biological activities [43-45].

3. Result and Discussion

3.1. Synthesis

Our initial strategy in this research project for the synthesis of different structural formulas corresponding spiro systems depended upon the synthesis of the new fused compound 1, which was synthesized by a cycloaddition reaction of equimolecular ratios of the appropriate acetamide and malononitrile with 2 mole of p-benzoquinone (one mole used as an oxidizing agent), in ethanol containing piperidine as catalyst [46]. The cycloaddition reaction leads to the formation of compound 1 through the electronic cyclization according to the suggested mechanism (Scheme 1).

The structure of the new synthesized compound 1 IR spectra which revealed a two carbonyl groups at 1665 cm1, two cyano group at 2214 cm1 and 1H-NMR spectra, which revealed the presence of two NH groups at δ 9.67, two NH2 groups at δ 6.01, doublet singlet at 1.63 assigned for two methyl group. The mass spectrum showed the molecular ion peak (M+, C17H14O2N5) at m/z 334. 13C-NMR δ (ppm): 174.09 (C=O), 168.4 (C=O), 152.5 (carbon which attach by CH3), 119.4 (carbon which attach by CN), 136.5 (carbon which attach by NH2) 98 - 135 (C=C), 63 (C-N), 24 (CH3), 117.3 (CN).

When a mixture of compound 1 and conc. Sulfuric acid was stirred at room temperature, hydrolysis of the cyano group took place to give compound 2. The structure of the new synthesized compound 2 was confirmed by its elemental analysis and IR spectra which revealed a carbonyl group at 1645 cm1 and two carbonyl group at 1665.5 cm1 and the 1H-NMR spectra, which revealed the presence of two NH groups at δ 10.50, two NH2 group at δ 6.49 doublet, singlet at δ 1.64 assigned for two methyl group. The mass spectrum showed the molecular ion peak (M+, C17H18O4N6) at m/z 370. 13C-NMR δ (ppm): 173.5 (C=O), 167.5 (C=O), 165.5 (C=O which attach by NH2), 153.5 (carbon which attach by CH3), 120.4 (carbon which attach by CONH2), 137 (carbon which attach by NH2) 98 - 135 (C=C), 64 (C-N), 23.5 (CH3). The intelligible bases of IR spectra led us to decide that the isolable structural formula produced from the reaction of compound 2 with sulfuric acid is the structural formula of compound 2 because the absence of peak at 2214 assigned for the cyano group. On the other hand, compound 2 was reacted with sulfur in pyridine which refluxed for 19h to give new compound 4. The structure of the new synthesized compound 4 was confirmed by its elemental analysis and IR spectra which revealed the presence of two carbonyl group of quinone at 1675 cm1 and two carbonyl group at 1640 cm1. The 1H-NMR spectra revealed the presence of (brs, 2H, 2NH) at δ 9.51 and (brs, 2H, 2NH) at δ 10.67, (brs, 4H, 2NH2) at δ 6.02 the absence of doublet singlet at δ 1.64 led us to decide that the structural formula of compound 4. The mass spectra showed the molecular ion peak (M+, C17H14O4N6S2) at m/z 430. and 13C-NMR δ(ppm): 173.5 (C=O), 167.5 (C=O), 164.5 (C=O which attach by NH2), 120.4 (carbon which attach by CONH2), 137.5 (carbon which attach by NH2) 98 - 135 (C=C), 63.5 (C-N), 32 (CH2S).

Scheme 1. Illustrate the formation of compound 1, 2 and 4.

It is very important to know that the formation of Schiff bases corresponding to the newly heterocyclic compounds is the cornerstone in the synthesis of the corresponding spiro β-Lactams and thiazolidinone compounds. The activity of the two carbonyl group in compound 4 render compound 4 to react with different aromatic amine in the presence of a mixture of ethanol (20 ml) and DMF (10 ml) as solvent at (0.5 ml) piperidine catalyst to give new Schiff bases 5a-c. The structure of these newly synthesized Schiff base was confirmed by their elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR and mass spectra. The activity of azamethine centre in compound 5a-c is more available than the activity of the NH group toward the addition process of chloroacetyl chloride, and this mentioned phenomena is due to the presence of the π electron, which makes the foundation of the δ positive and δ negative charge on the carbon and nitrogen atom, respectively, more easy than the presence of this phenomena on the NH group in which the bonding between nitrogen and hydrogen wheather strong according to the nature of this bonding which leads to decreasing of the mobility desire of the hydrogen atom of this NH group [46]. Thus compound 5a-c reacted with chloroacetyl chloride or mercaptoacetic acid [47] to give spiro β- Lactams and spiro thiazolidinone compounds 6a-c and 7a-c (Scheme 2). The structures of these spiro compounds 6a-c and 7a-c were confirmed by their elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR, mass spectra and 13C-NMR.
