Abstract

Four novel pregnane-NSAIDs prodrugs 3β-(2-(6-methoxynaphthalene-2yl) propionoxy)-16α-methoxy-pregn-5-ene-20-one (3), 16α-methoxy-pregn-5-ene-20-one-3yl-2(4-iso butyl phenyl) propanoate (4), 3β-(2-(6-methoxynaphthalene-2yl) propionoxy) 20-hydroxy-16α-methoxy-pregn-5-ene (5) and 20-hydroxy-16α-methoxy-pregn-5-ene-20-one-3yl-2(4-iso butyl phenyl) propanoate (6) have been synthesized. They were analyzed experimentally by spectroscopic techniques like 1H, 13C NMR, FT-IR, UV–visible spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and correlated by theoretical calculations. The structure and conformations of 3 was established by single crystal X-ray diffraction, which crystallized in orthorhombic form having P212121 space group. Absolute configuration of C-20 hydroxy derivatives 5 and 6 was established by circular dichroism (CD) analysis. Conformational analysis of 5 was carried out to determine the most stable conformation. The electronic properties, such as frontier orbitals, band gap energies, oscillator strength and wavelength have been calculated using time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The vibrational wavenumbers have been calculated using DFT method and assigned with the help of potential energy distribution (PED). Global and local reactivity descriptors have been computed to predict reactivity and reactive sites in the molecule. First hyperpolarizability (β0) of synthesized compounds has been computed to evaluate non-linear optical (NLO) response. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) for synthesized compounds have also been determined to check their electrophilic or nucleophilic reactivity as well as reaction path.
