Synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, DFT calculation, and theoretical investigation of spirocyclohexane derivatives

Polycyclic structures fused at a central carbon are of great interest due to their appealing conformational features and their structural implications in biological systems. Although progress in the development of synthetic methodologies toward such structures has been impressive, the stereo selective construction of such quaternary stereo centers remains a significant challenge in the total synthesis of natural products. From the computational calculations by Density Functional Theory along with the B3LYP as basis set, It is obvious that the all studied compounds are soft molecules and eta varied from 0.069 for compound (10) to 0.087 for compound (15), while the compound (14) is treated as hard molecule, the value of eta is 0.102, also the electronic transition within the soft compounds is easy as indicated from the oE, the compound (10) is absolute soft according to the (sigma = 14.49 eV), while the compound (14) is treated as hard compounds (sigma = 9.804 eV). The newly formed compounds exhibited both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities on HRBC homolytic and membrane stabilization and DPPH scavenging percent, respectively.

Polycyclic structures fused at a central carbon have attracted great interest due to their appealing conformational features and structural implications in biological systems. However, the stereo selective construction of quaternary stereo centers remains a significant challenge in the total synthesis of natural products.
