Synthesis of methyl (E)-2-[(3S,4S)-4-hydroxy-3-(pent-3-yloxy)-pyrrolidin-2-ylidene]propanoate and its unusual recyclization

Methyl (2E,4S,5S)-5-hydroxy-6-mesyloxy-2-methyl-4-(pent-3-yloxy)hex-2-enoate was synthesized from l-tartaric acid. Attempted substitution of the mesyloxy group by the reaction with NaN₃ directly led to methyl (E)-2-[(3S,4S)-4-hydroxy-3-(pent-3-yloxy)pyrrolidin-2-ylidene]propanoate. The latter on treatment with CF₃COOH and then NaOH gave methyl (2E)-2-methyl-4-[(S)-oxiran-2-yl]-4-(pent-3-yloxy)but-2-enoate.     

Synthesis and antimalarial effects of 5,6-dichloro-2-[(4-||4-(diethylamino)-i-methylbutyl] amino||-6-methyl-2-pyrirnidinyl)amino] benzimidazole and related benzimidazoles and lH-imidazo[4,5-b] pyridines

A group of fifty-five 2-[(4-11[(dialkylamino)alkyI]amino11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]-benzimidazoles (VII) was synthesized in 3-88% yield by the condensation of the requisite 2-[(2-benzimidazolyl)amino]-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine (VI) with the appropriate polyamine in ethanol-hydrochloric acid or neat with excess amine containing potassium iodide. The 2-[(2-benzimidazolyl)amino]-6-methyl-4-pyrirnidinol precursors (V), obtained in 11-51% yield by cyclization of 2-(cyanoamino)-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidine with a suitably substituted o-phenylenediamine, were chlorinated with phosphorus oxychloride to give the intermediate 2-[(2-benzimidazolyl)amino]-4-chloro-6-rnethylpyrimidines (VI) (27-99%). Oxidation of 5,6-dichloro-2-[(4-11[4-(diethylamino)-l-methylbutyl] amino 11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl) amino ]benzimidazole ( 29 ) with m-chloroperbenzoic acid gave the distal N⁴'-oxide ( 31 ) (19%). Fusion of 2,3-uiaminopyridine with 2-(cyanoamino)-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidine provided 2-[(4-hydroxy-6-tnethyl-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]-lH-imitlazo[4,5-b]pyrimidine (VIII) (30%), which upon chlori-nation with phosphorus oxychloride (63%) followed by amination with i N, N-diethylethylene-diamine afforded 2-(4-11[2-(diethylamino)ethyl] amino 11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl)-lH-imidazo [4,5-b]pyridine (X) (8%). Thirty-eight of the novel 2-[(4-amino-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]-benzimidazoles possessed “curative” activity against Plasmodium berghei at single subcutaneous doses ranging from 20.640 mg./kg. Orally, thirty-one compounds exhibited suppressive activity against P. berghei comparable with or superior to the reference drugs 1-(p-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-11[2-(diethylarnino)ethyl]amino 11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl)guanidine (I) and quinine hydrochloride, while twelve of them were 5 to 28 times as potent as I and quinine hydrochloride. Eight compounds also displayed strong suppressive activity against P. gallinaceum in chicks. 5,6-Dichloro-2-[(4-112-(diethylamino)ethyl]amino11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl] benzimidazole (18) showed marked activity against a cycloguanil-resistant line of P. berghei, and the most promising member of the series, namely 5,6-dichloro-2-[(4-11[4-(diethylamino)-l-methylbutyl]amino11-6-methyl-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]benzimidazole ( 29 ) (Q = 28), was designated for preclinical toxico-logical studies and clinical trial. Structure-activity relationships are discussed.

Wolff-Kishner reduction of 3-amino-4-(o-chlorobenzoyl)pyridine ( 3 ) afforded 3-amino-4-(o-chlorobenzyl)pyridine ( 5 ), which on subsequent reaction with triethyl orthoformate and then acetyl hydrazide yielded 1-acetyl-2-[N-[4-(o-chlorobenzyl)pyridin-3-yl]formimidoyl]hydrazone ( 7 ). Cyclization of hydrazone 7 gave 3-(3-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)-4-(o-chlorobenzyl)pyridine ( 8 ), which on Jones oxidation yielded 3-(3-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)-4-(o-chlorobenzyl)pyridine ( 9 ). The Mannick reaction of 3-(3-methyl-4H-l,2,4-triazol-4-yl)-4-(o-chlorobenzyl)pyridine ( 9 ) with aqueous formalin and dimethylamine hydrochloride afforded 3-[3-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-5-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl]-4-(o-chlorobenzoyl)-pyridine ( 10 ). 3-[3-[(Dimethylamino)methyl]-5-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl]-4-(o-chlorobenzoyl)pyridine ( 10 ) exhibited good anticonvulsant activity in the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole anticonvulsant screen indi cating that an appropriately substituted-pyridine ring moiety can serve as a bioisostere of a chlorobenzene ring with respect to anticonvulsant activity.

Three-component condensation of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl}- carbamate with ninhydrin and L-proline in methanol–water (10: 1) afforded methyl {4-[1,3-dioxo-1′- (4-methoxyphenyl)-1,1′,2′,3,5′,6′,7′,7a′-octahydrospiro[indene-2,3′-pyrrolizin]-2′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate. Heating of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl}carbamate with isatin and benzylamine in methanol gave methyl {4-[4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxo-5′-phenyl-1,2-dihydrospiro[indole-3,2′-pyrrolidin]-3′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate. The condensation of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2- enoyl]phenyl}carbamate with sarcosine and 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one generated in situ from ninhydrin and o-phenylenediamine in boiling ethanol led to the formation of methyl {4-[4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1′-methyl-11,11a-dihydro-5aH-spiro[benzo[b]phenazine-6,2′-pyrrolidin]-3′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate.
