During the cyclization reaction of benzyl alcohol containing amides, using NaN3 and SiCl4, additional unique chlorination development was observed to yield the novel azoles 1-[4-chloromethylphenyl]-5-[4-(methylsulfonyl)benzyl]-1H-tetrazole (3a) and 1-[4-chloromethylphenyl]-5-[4-(aminosulfonyl)phenyl]-1H-tetrazole (3b). Control experiments showed that the SiCl4 or SiCl3N3 has the major role for such functional group transformation in such a clean reaction and quantitative yield. Their molecular structures have been ascertained using the X-ray crystallography technique in addition to the spectroscopic analyses. Both compounds 3a and 3b crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c. The cell parameters of azole 3a are a = 22.3827 (8), Å, b = 5.1602 (2) Å, c = 13.4994 (5) Å3, β = 95.2352 (14)°, V = 1552.67 (10) Å3, and Z = 4. While the cell parameters of azole 3b are a = 20.582 (2), Å, b = 5.8947 (7) Å, c = 13.0796 (16) Å3, β = 104.376 (4)°, V = 1537.2 (3) Å3, and Z = 4. The central tetrazole ring of both compounds is planar and bears (4-chloromethylphenyl) at position one (N-1) of the central moiety. However, the substituents 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl and 4-(aminosulfonyl)phenyl of azoles 3a and 3b, respectively, are attached to the C-5 of the same central unit. The phenyl rings at N-1, (C2C7) and C9C14 in (3a); (C2C7) and (C8C14) in (3b) are inclined compared to the tetrazole ring with dihedral angles of 21.74° and 83.94° in 3a and 25.85° and 65.13° in 3b. The two phenyl rings, at N-1 and C-5, are rotated against each other by 87.73° (in 3a) and 72.21° (in 3b). In the crystal, intermolecular interactions between molecules of 3a,b are dominated by CH⋯O and CH⋯N hydrogen bonds. Additional Cl…π interactions add extra supramolecularity. All intermolecular interaction motifs consolidate a three dimensional network lattice. The molecular docking studies were carried out to understand the interaction of compounds 3a and 3b within the active site of the cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme, followed by a comparison study with the celecoxib drug as a reference compound. The in vitro bioassay screenings of azoles 3a and 3b showed that both compounds have poor selectivity and weak inhibition potency toward cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme.
