Bromination and Azidation Reactions of 2-Styrylchromones. New Syntheses of 4(5)-Aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

The bromination of 2-styrylchromones, bearing electron neutral substituents, with two molar equivalents of piridinium tribromide gave 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones and 3-bromo-2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones. The presence of electron-donating substituents on their B ring led to a mixture of compounds due to the higher reactivity of their C(2)=C(3) and C=C double bonds, whereas the strongly electron-withdrawing group hindered the bromination. The dehydrobromination of 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones with triethylamine gave a diastereomeric mixture of (E)- and (Z)-2-(-bromostyryl)chromones. Some novel 4(5)-aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles have been obtained from the reactions of 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones, 2-(-bromostyryl)chromones, and 2-styrylchromones with sodium azide. The reactions of 2-styrylchromones with sodium azide are more efficient, general, and constitute a one-pot synthetic method of 4(5)-aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles allowing the preparation of 1,2,3-triazoles bearing either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents in their aryl ring. The structure of all new compounds was established by extensive NMR spectroscopic studies.

Synthesis of chalcone analogs and derivatives of 2-pyrazoline from 3-formylindole

By the crotonic condensation in an alkaline medium of 3-formylindole with various aromatic and heterocyclic methyl ketones, and also with cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, and 1,4-diacetylbenzene, we have synthesized nineteen ,-unsaturated ketones. The majority of them were characterized as the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones, the absorption maxima of which in chloroform are given. Some considerations are expressed concerning the reactivity of 3-formyl- and 3-acetylindoles. Ten 3-aryl-1-phenyl-5-(indol-3-yl)-2-pyrazolines and their analogs with a 3-heterocyclic residue have been synthesized by the reaction of 3-aryl-1-(indol-3-yl)propen-3-ones and the corresponding analogs with phenylhydrazine. Some of the compounds synthesized possess a bright luminescence.

Diastereoselective synthesis of a series of (Z)-1-[3-aryl-2-(phenylsulfanyl)-2-oxiranyl]-1-ethanones was effected from the reaction of (Z)-4-aryl-3-(phenylsulfanyl)-3-buten-2-ones with alkaline hydrogen peroxide in tetrahydrofuran. The stereochemistry of the oxiranes has been deduced from two-dimensional NOESY spectrum.     

Reactions of 3-(4-Aryl-2-thiazolyl)- and 3-(2-Benzothiazolyl)-2-iminocoumarins with N-Nucleophiles

The reaction of 3-(4-aryl-2-thiazolyl)- and 3-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2-iminocoumarins with N-nucleophiles was studied. This reaction gives 2-N-substituted 3-(4-aryl-2-thiazolyl)- and 3-(2-benzothiazolyl)iminocourmarins. N-Nucleophiles such as arylamines, heterocyclic amines, and hydrazine derivatives undergo this reaction.     

Synthesis and molecular structure of 3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3-methoxy-2-oxo-2,3-dihydroimidazo-[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyridine hydrochlorides

Reactions between 2-pyridylamides of Z-4-aryl-2-hydroxy-4-oxobut-2-enoic acids with diazomethane have been used to synthesize 3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3-methoxy-2-oxo-2,3-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, which form hydrochlorides with hydrochloric acid. The structure of the latter has been demonstrated by XRD for the hydrochloride of 3-methoxy-2-oxo-3-(2-phenyl-2-oxoethyl)-2,3-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 464–468, 2007.     

Transformation of trans-4-aryl-3-chloro-1-(2-chloroethyl)azetidin-2-ones into 3-aryl-2-(ethylamino)propan-1-ols via intermediate 1-(1-aryl-2-chloro-3-hydroxypropyl)aziridines and trans-2-aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)aziridines

trans-4-Aryl-3-chloro-1-(2-chloroethyl)azetidin-2-ones, prepared through cyclocondensation of chloroketene and the appropriate imines in a diastereoselective way, were unexpectedly transformed into 3-aryl-2-(ethylamino)propan-1-ols using LiAlH(4) in THF under reflux. A stepwise analysis showed that the initially formed 1-(1-aryl-2-chloro-3-hydroxypropyl)aziridines were converted into trans-2-aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)aziridines, most probably via N-spiro bis-aziridinium intermediates, which were subsequently prone to undergo ring opening by LiAlH(4) to afford 3-aryl-2-(ethylamino)propan-1-ols.     

Reaction of 2-(4-Arylthiazol-2-yl)-4-chloro-3-oxobutyronitriles with Secondary Aliphatic Amines

We have obtained 2-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)-4-chloro-3-oxobutyronitriles by acylation of 4-aryl-2-cyanomethylthiazoles with -chloroacetyl chloride. We have studied their reaction with secondary aliphatic amines, leading to formation of 4-dialkylamino-2-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)-3-oxobutyronitriles, and also intramolecular alkylation with formation of 3-aryl-7-cyano-6(5H)-oxopyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazoles. We have determined some aspects of the tautomerism of the synthesized compounds.     

Synthesis of Fluorine-Containing 2-(1-Aryl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-3-yl)-2-oxoacetic Acids

Acid hydrolysis of ethyl 2-(1-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-3-yl)-2-oxoacetates gives 2-(1-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-3-yl)-2,2-dihydroxyacetic acids which undergo dehydration on heating in toluene to afford 2-(1-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-3-yl)-2-oxoacetic acids. Reactions of the latter with excess morpholine result in replacement of two fluorine atoms in positions 5 and 7 by the amine residues.     

Reactions of Ethyl 2-Amino-5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)- 4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates and 2-Amino-5-(2-aryl- 2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carbonitriles with Alcohols

Ethyl 2-amino-5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates and 2-amino- 5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carbonitriles reacted with alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of concentrated aqueous HCl to give the corresponding 5-alkoxy-2-amino-5-(2-aryl-2- oxoethyl)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid derivatives. A probable reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis B3LYP/6-311G(d) quantum chemical calculations.     

Regioselective alkynylation of 2-aryl-4-chloro-3-iodoquinolines and subsequent arylation or amination of the 2-aryl-3-(alkynyl)-4-chloroquinolines

Palladium-CuI catalyzed Sonogashira coupling of 2-aryl-4-chloro-3-iodoquinolines with terminal acetylenes (1 equiv) in triethylamine afforded the 2-aryl-3-(alkynyl)-4-chloroquinolines as sole products. The 2-aryl-4-chloro-3-iodoquinolines coupled with excess terminal acetylenes (2.5 equiv) in dioxane/water to yield the 2-aryl-3,4-bis(alkynyl)quinoline derivatives in a one-pot operation. The 2-aryl-3-(alkynyl)-4-chloroquinolines were, in turn, subjected to arylation via Suzuki cross-coupling with arylboronic acid derivatives or amination with methylamine, respectively. The structures of the products of successive Sonogashira and Suzuki cross-couplings were also confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of diazomethane to β-arylacrylyloxiranes

Diastereomeric 4-aryl-3-epoxypropionyl-2-pyrazolines were obtained by cycloaddition of diazomethane to -arylacrylyloxiranes. It was established that, in addition to the formation of pyrazolines, competitive addition of diazomethane to the carbonyl group to give oxadiazolines occurs when electron-donor substituents are present in the aromatic ring in the 2 or 4 position. Some chemical properties of 4-aryl-3-epoxypropionyl-2-pyrazolines were studied.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 679–683, May, 1982.     

Carbon-13 NMR Studies of 3-Aryl-4-(5-aryl-Δ 2-1,2,4-oxadiazolin-3-yl)sydnones and 3-Aryl-4-(5-aryl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)sydnones

The ¹³C NMR spectra of twelve 3-aryl-4-(5-aryl-Δ²-l,2,4-oxadiazolin-3-yl)sydnones and twelve 3-aryl-4-(5-aryl-l,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)sydnones have been measured and assigned by means of proton-noise decoupling and DEPT-experiments. The coupling constants were determined by means of gated decoupling, and NOE effects were observed by comparison of proton-decoupled and inverse-gated decoupled spectra. Differences shown by the oxadiazoline and the oxadiazole rings and the substitution effects are discussed.     

Synthesis and spectral luminescence properties of stilbene derivatives containing 2-pyrazolinyl and 1,3-oxazolyl groupings

A number of trans-stilbene derivatives containing 2-pyrazolinyl and 1,3-oxazolyl groupings were synthesized by PO olefination from 1-(4-formylphenyl)-3-aryl-5-phenyl-2-pyrazolines and 2-(4-bromomethylphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3-oxazole. The products fluoresce intensely in the green or yellow-green region (quantum yields 0.4–0.57). The intense long-wave absorption band of the investigated compounds is due to an electron transition that is localized primarily in the stilbene fragment of their molecules that includes, as a substituent, the amine nitrogen atom of the pyrazoline ring; the less intense shortwave band corresponds to localization of the electronic excitation in the hydrazone grouping.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 656–661, May, 1977.     

Reaction of 3-Aryl-1-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-ones with Tosylhydrazine

It was established that the reaction of 3-aryl-1-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-ones with tosylhydrazine leads to 3-[(E)-2-arylvinyl]-4-methyl-1-tosyl-1H-pyrazoles and 3-aryl-1-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl)-3-tosylpropan-1-ones. The latter are formed as a result of rearrangement of the intermediate hydrazino alcohols and/or addition of p-toluenesulfinic acid during reductive degradation of the tosylhydrazine. It was shown that the reaction of 3-aryl-1-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl)-3-tosylpropan-1-ones with an excess of tosylhydrazine leads to 3-(2-aryl-2-tosylethyl)-4-methyl-1-tosyl-1H-pyrazoles. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1481–1489, October, 2005.

The structure of these compounds was determined by elemental analysis , UV, IR, 1H NMR and MS. Their spectral properties were also discussed.
