Oxidation and isomerism of thietane-containing heterocycles

Oxidation of 6-methyl-1-(thiethan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, 5(6)-nitro-1-(thiethan-3-yl)-benzimidazole, 2-methyl-4-nitro-1-(thiethan-3-yl)- and 5-bromo-2-methyl-4-nitro-1-(thiethan-3-yl)imidazoles was examined. Corresponding 1-oxothietan-3-yl- and 1,1-dioxothietan-3-yl derivatives were synthesized for the first time. Some factors affecting the quality of the final products and optimal conditions of the oxidation of thietanyl derivatives of pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, nitrobenzimidazole, and nitroimidazole were found. According to 1H NMR spectroscopy data, the obtained sulfoxides are mixtures of cis/trans isomers, the diastereomers ratio determined by the substituent at position 3 of thietane ring.

The calculations in the framework of approximations PBE/3z, B3LYP/6-31G++(d,p) and MP2/6-31G++(d,p) showed that the alkylation occurred at the atom N¹ of the pyrimidine ring.     

Synthesis of new thietanylpyrimidine and thietanylimidazole derivatives

New thietanyl-substituted derivatives of pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione and imidazole were synthesized. The alkylation of 6-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones with 2-chloromethylthiirane in water involved the N¹ atom of the pyrimidine ring and afforded 6-methyl-1-(thietan-3-yl)-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones. Under analogous conditions 6-aminopyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione gave rise to 6-(thietan-3-ylamino)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione. Unsymmetrically substituted 2-methyl-4(5)-nitro- and 5(4)-bromo-2-methyl-4(5)-nitro-1H-imidazoles reacted with 2-chloromethylthiirane to produce mixtures of isomeric 2-methyl-4(5)-nitro-1-(thietan-3-yl)-1H-imidazoles and 5(4)-bromo-2-methyl-4(5)-nitro-1-(thietan-3-yl)-1H-imidazoles.

Alkali metal cations control over nucleophilic substitutions on aromatic fused pyrimidine-2,4-[1H,3H]-diones: towards new PNA monomers

In this paper we report synthesis of a series of aromatic fused pyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione-1-yl acetic acid and new PNA monomers containing these polycyclic nucleobase analogues. Introduction of a fused aromatic ring onto the 5,6-positions of the pyrimidine-2,4-[1H,3H]-diones brings about the steric effects and the charge delocalization, both weakening the nucleophilic substitutions on the 1- and 3-positions. We found that alkali metal cations play an important role in this alkylation reaction. LiOH brings out a much more efficient alkylation than NaOH does, while KOH nearly does not work on this reaction. Such influences from the alkali metal cations are probably due to that the charge-pairing interactions between the pyrimidine-2,4-dioxide anions and the alkali metal cations rearrange the charge distribution around the whole aromatic system and increase the negative charge distribution on the 1- and 3-nitrogen atoms, which then strengthens the nucleophilic reactivity on these positions.     

Synthesis and Reactions of 5-Amino-3-(3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-4-yl)-7-phenyl-7 H -thiazolo[3,2- a ]pyrimidine-6-carbonitrile

Synthesis of some new pyrimidine selanyl derivatives

The targeted synthesis of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-(furan-2-yl)-4(3H)-selenoxo -pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile failed due to the formation 1-methyl-2-methylsulfanyl-6-oxo -4-(furan-2-yl)-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile. A new series of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzo thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-yl substituted selanyl derivatives were prepared by the reaction of sodium diselenide with 4-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine followed by the reaction with chloroacetic acid derivatives such as ethyl chloroacetate, chloroacetamide or chloroacetonitrile. Hydrazinolysis of ethyl (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 4-ylselanyl)acetate with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazino derivative. The latter reacted with ethyl acetoacetate, acetylacetone, diethyl malonate, ethoxymethylenemalononitrile or ethyl 2-cyano-3-ethoxyacetate to afford 5-methyl-2-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno [2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazol-3-one, 1-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-2- (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)ethanone, 1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro -1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazolidine-3,5-dione and 5-Amino-1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-1H-pyrazol -4-yl substituted carbonitrile or ethyl carboxylate, respectively.
