ABSTRACT:
The present report describes the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds on creatinine ring, the synthetic route started from reaction creatinine with chloroacetyl chloride to give compound (1a). Compound (1a) react with urea/thiourea respectively to give compounds (2a-3a),Shiff bases were synthesized by the reaction compounds (2a-3a) with benzaldehyde andm- nitrobenzaldehyde, respectively to give compounds (4a-5a). Esterification of compounds (4a-5a) with α- chloroethylacetate to give compounds (6a-7a). Esters derivatives were synthesized by the reaction compounds (6a-7a) with semithiocarbazide respectivelyto give compounds (8a-9a). The compounds (8a-9a) reacts with NaOH to give compounds (10a-11a). The synthesized compounds characterized by FT-IR and1HNMR spectroscopy. Beside the experimental work, we worked theoretical study involving calculated the energies.

1. INTRODUCTION:
The kidneys are one of the major chemical factories in the body that regulate the blood flow. Remove metabolism waste products and maintain the balance of water and make up electrolytes in the blood stream [1]. The performance of the kidneys is generally tested by observing blood urea nitrogen levels, creatinine clearance and also glomerular filtration rate, the flow rate of purified fluid via the kidney [2]. Research on plunge products such as urea and creatinine (2-amino-1-methyl-5H- imidazol-4-one) can explore investigate the biological results and functions of the kidneys [3]. Concentrations of the above types can also show the muscle and thyroid functions [4]. The end product of creatine metabolism produced by creatinine [3] is produced by the body and filtered by the kidneys from the blood stream in relatively small quantities daily [3], normal physiological concentration in blood is 0.90 to 1.
30 mg/dL in men and 0, 60 to 1,10 mg/dL in women, but in certain pathological conditions, it may exceed these levels [5]. In contrast to urea, creatinine concentrations in body fluids are not influenced by protein consumption, so creatinine levels serve as a more reliable indication of renal function [6]. Therefore, creatinine quantification is an important research area in science, in particular in the areas of clinical biochemistry, biology and medicine [7,8].
2. EXPERIMENTAL:
2.1. Materials and physical measurements:
All starting materials and solvents were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and Fluka and used without further purification. Melting points were measured on Gallen Kamp capillary melting point apparatus and were uncorrected, FT-IR measurements were recorded on Shimadzu model FTIR-8400S. 1HNMR spectra were obtained with Bruker spectrophotometer model ultra-shield at 400 MHz in D2O solution with the TMS as internal standard.
2.2. Synthesis of the organic compounds:
2.2.1. Synthesis of compound (1a) [9]
Literature procedure was used with modifications. In 100 mL Round-bottom flask (R.B.F) the creatinine (0.02 mole) was dissolved in DMF (20mL) and then cooled at (0-5˚C) and 2-3 drops of trimethylamine (TEA) were added. Chloroacetyl chloride (0.02 mole) in DMF (20 mL) was slowly added to R.B.F with vigorous stirring for 3 hours at room temperature. The obtained product was filtered, washed with ether and recrystallized from ethanol. The physical properties of synthesized compound (1a) is given in Table 1.
2.2.2. Synthesis of compounds(2a-3a) [10]

The enzymes SGOT, and SGPT activities were measured in human serum by using the same methods of these enzymes with replace 100 µl of buffer with 100 µl of compounds (10a-11a). The activation percentage was calculated by comparing the activity with and without compounds (10a-11a) and under the same conditions, according to the equation:
% Activation

3.3. A constant concentration of compounds (10a-11a) (10-2 M)
A constant concentration of compounds (10a-11a) (10-2 M) were used with different substrate concentrations of (40, 80, 120, 160, 200) mmol/L for SGOT and SGPT to study the type of activation. Buffers were used to prepared different substrates concentrations of these enzymes SGOT and SGPT (phosphate buffer pH = 7.40, 100 mmol/L). The enzymes velocity was determined with and without compounds (10a-11a), by using the Linweaver and Burke equation and plotting 1/v against 1/[s] were evaluated values; Ki, apparent Vmax (Vmapp), apparent Km (Kmapp), type of inhibition or activation[15].

The biochemical tests revealed that these compounds caused stimulation effects on SGOT and SGPT enzymes activities. Table (8) is listed below shows the effect of different concentration of compounds (10a-11a) on the activity of SGOT and SGPT enzymes in human serum. This research addresses investigation of the effects of compounds (10a-11a) of SGOT and SGPT enzymes. The biochemical tests revealed that this compounds caused activator effects on SGOT and SGPT enzymes activities. The normal value of the SGOT and SGPT enzyme activities in compound(10a-11a) were (15 and 16 U/L) respectively. The relationship between compounds (10a-11a) concentrations versus and the activity of enzymes were shown in Figures (1-4). These results observed that any increase in compound concentrations caused increase in percentage of activation of enzymes.

Competitive, non-competitive and uncompetitive activators can easily be distinguished by using the Lineweaver–Burk plot's double reciprocal plot. Two sets of rate determination were performed in which the concentration of enzymes was kept constant. In the first experiment, the speed of the unactivated enzyme was determined, and in each enzyme test the second experimental constant amount of activator was included. Various substances are capable of reducing or eliminating the catalytic activity of a particular enzyme [18].
Table 9 and Figures (5-6) showed that the type of enzyme activation using Lineweaver–Burk plot for compounds (10a-11a) on SGOT and SGPT activity. The Vmax and Km values determined with 10-2 M of compounds (10a-11a) and without it. Vmax without compounds (10a-11a) were greater than Vmax in the presence compounds (10a-11a). A liquate 10-2 M of compounds (10a-11a) were noncompetitive activation for enzymes activity. Noncompetitive activation changed the Vmax of the enzyme but not the Km. By using Lineweaver– Burk equation, the Ka values of enzyme for compound which was studied in different concentrations.
