Four novel compounds of 1,8-dioxoacridine carboxylic acid derivatives (4-(3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,8-dioxo-9-phenyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridin-10(9H)-yl)benzoic acid, 4-(9-(4-cyanophenyl)-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,8-dioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridin-10(9H)-yl)benzoic acid, 4-(9-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,8-dioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridin-10(9H)-yl)benzoic acid, 4-(9-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,8-dioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridin-10(9H)-yl)benzoic acid) were prepared by the reaction of the 4-substitute benzaldehyde (hydrogen, hydroxyl, cyano, and 2,4-dichloro), 4-aminobenzoic acid, and 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione in the presence of p-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid. They were characterized by using FT-IR, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR, GC-MS spectroscopic techniques. The stoichiometric ionization constants of these compounds were determined in ethanol-water mixtures of 50%, 60% and 70% ethanol (v/v) by potentiometric titration method and the ionization constants were calculated with three different ways. The effects of solvent composition and substituent groups on ionization constants of 1,8-dioxoacridine carboxylic acids were also discussed. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
