Reduction of 3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1a ) with sodium borohydride afforded 3-methylthio-1,6-dihydrotriazin-5(4H)-one ( 2b ) selectively. 3-Methylthio-6-t-butyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1d ) reacted with sodium borohydride to give mainly 6-t-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 3d ). The reaction of various 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones with sodium borohydride and the influence of bulkiness and electronic effect of the substituents at the 3- and 6-positions upon the product ratio, are also discussed.     

1,2,4-Triazines. II. A new general synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5-(2H)ones

3,4-Dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5-(2H)ones were prepared by the reduction of 3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5-(2H)-ones with sodium borohydride in dimethylformamide. The synthesis appears to be general.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g . Oxidation of the dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-e afforded 6-(indolyl-3)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 4a-e , products of nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in 1a-c . Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .     

1,2,4-Triazines, 9. The synthesis of novel 4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazinones

3-Alkylthio-4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones were synthesized by the reduction of 3-thio-4-amino-1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2.H,4H)-diones and successive S-alkylation. The regiospecific alkylation on the N-1 position or the exo amino group leads to a variety of 1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one derivatives. An alternative synthesis of 3-thio-4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-diones was accomplished through the cyclization of 1-thiocarbohydrazidoacetamide derivatives.     

On the preparation of substituted 4H- 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazin-4-ones and 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazoles

The reaction of benzoyl isothiocyanates and methoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate with 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5-ones in acetonitrile gave several substituted 4H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazin-4-ones VIa-h instead of the expected thioureas. In addition, benzoyl isothiocyanate reacted with 4-amino-3-(methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole to give the benzoyl thiourea IX and with 4-amino-3-mercapto-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole to give the bicyclic compound N-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-6-yl]benzamide IX .     

Adamantylation of 3-Nitro- and 3-Ethoxycarbonyl-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazin-4-ones

Reaction of 3-nitro- and 3-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazin-4-ones with 1-adamantanol (or 1-adamantyl nitrate) in concentrated sulfuric acid or with 1-bromoadamantane in sulfolane affords N-adamantyl derivatives. The adamantylation of 3-nitro-1,4-dihydro-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazin-4-one yields a mixture of N⁸- and N¹-isomers that undergo interconversion in concentrated sulfuric acid along intermolecular mechanism.     

Reactions of 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones with phenols and aromatic amines

1,2,4-Triazin-5(2H)-ones 1 react as well with phenols, resorinol and its dimethyl ethers, as with dimethyland diethylaniline, yielding 6-aryl-1,6-didydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 2, 4–8, 12–15. Oxidation of the 1,6-dihydroadducts 2a,b gives the corresponding 3-aryl-6-hydroxyphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a,b. Rection of 1,2,4-triazinones 1 with 2-naphthylamine leads to destruction of the 1,2,4-triazine ring yielding benzo[e]indole-2,3-dione 19.     

Acid-Base Properties and Prototropic Tautomerism of Isomeric 1,2,4-Triazin-3- and -5-ones

The acidity and basicity constants of isomeric phenyl(aryl)-1,2,4-triazin-3- and -5-ones in aqueous solution were determined by spectrophotometry: pK _a = 7.3–6.2; pK _BH+= 0.1 to –2.2. 1,2,4-Triazin-3-ones are weaker bases than the corresponding 1,2,4-triazin-5-ones. According to the AM1 calculations, the most thermodynamically favorable tautomer in the gas phase is the oxo form: namely, 2H-tautomers of the neutral bases and 2,4-H,H ⁺-tautomers of the conjugate acids.     

Synthesis of 8-Aryl[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-d][1,2,4]triazin-5(6H)-ones by S HN Reactions

A new procedure has been proposed for the synthesis of 8-aryl[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-d][1,2,4]-triazin-5(6H)-ones by reaction of 6-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-ones with hydrazides derived from aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic carboxylic acids. The process invloves nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (S_N ^H)in aryltriazinones, oxidative closure of azole ring, and Dimroth rearrangement.     

Palladium complex of 6-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-one: Synthesis,structure, and catalytic activity

Palladium(II) complex with 6-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one was synthesized for the first time. The ligand was prepared from 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one and 4-methylphenol via nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (S_N^H reaction). The complex was readily soluble in basic medium, and it effectively catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reaction.     

Condensed as-triazines. Synthesis of 7-aryl-8H-[1,4]thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one

Ring closure of 6-amino-3-oxo-as-triazine-5-thione with α-haloketones provides the thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazines which dehydrate via an unusual pathway to give 7-aryl-8H[1,4]thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-ones.     

6- and 7-aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazines. Synthesis and characterization

Synthetic methods for the preparation of 6-aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazines ( 1 ) and the 7-aryl isomers ( 2 ) are described. Compounds 1 were prepared from aryl glyoxaldoximes 76 via 6-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)ones ( 75 ). A simple procedure for the preparation of the 7-aryl isomers was effected using arylglyoxals 11 and the triazoles ( 4, 12a and 12b ). However, complete regioselectivity was not realized in all cases, especially when the triazoles were substituted at the C-5 position. A regiospecific synthesis of the 7-aryl isomers 2 was developed via the 3-methylthio-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazines ( 61 ). The structure of the parent 6-phenyl derivative 5 was confirmed by x-ray crystallography.     

Easy formation of SNH products in reactions of indoles and pyrroles with 3-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones in the presence of tosyl chloride

The reactions of 3-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones with indoles and pyrroles in the presence of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride afforded 3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones in high yields. The latter are products of the nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen.     

Direct diastereoselective introduction of l-menthol residue into 1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one

The reaction of 3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (1) with l-menthol in the presence of aliphatic acid anhydrides results in (6S)- and (6R)-1-acyl-6-(l-menth-3-yl)-1,6-dyhydro-3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones. The reaction is diastereoselective with predominant formation of (6S)-isomers. The reaction diastereoselectivity increases with enhancement of the steric hindrance in the vicinity of the reaction center of the azine.     

Regioselectivity of cyclization of 1-(6-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-4-arylthiosemicarbazides by treating with methyl iodide and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide

1-(6-Methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-4-arylthiosemicarbazides treated with methyl iodide in the presence of sodium acetate in ethanol convert into 6-methyl-3-arylamino[1,2,4]-triazolo[4,3-b][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-ones. In reaction with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide 6-methyl-3-arylamino[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazin-5(1H)-ones were obtained which at heating in alcohol solution in the presence of sodium acetate or at 262–272°C underwent the Dimroth rearrangement to give 3-methyl-7-arylamino[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]-triazin-4(8H)-ones.     

Synthesis and structure of dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H) ones

When methylhydrazine was employed, 1-methyl-4, 5-dihydro- 5a-c and 2-methyl-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H) ones 6a-c were obtained. Compounds 6a-c exist as zwitterions in the solid state and in polar aprotic solvents.     

The formation of 1,2,4-triazolylimidazolidine-2,4-diones in reactions of 3-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones with alkylureas

Recyclization of the addition products of alkylureas to 3-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones affording 1,2,4-triazole derivatives was found to occur in Ac₂O.     

Synthesis of C-nucleoside isosteres of 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine (acyclovir)

Syntheses of 2-amino-7-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)imidazo[5,1-f]-1,2,4-triazin-4(3H)-one ( 2 ) and 6-amino-3-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazin-8(7H)-one ( 3 ), novel isosteres of the antiviral agent acyclovir, are reported.     

On the amination of 1,2,4-triazines by potassium amide in liquid ammonia and by phenyl phosphorodiamidate. A 15n-study

The amination of 5-R- and 6-R-3-X-1,2,4-triazines (R = C₆H₅, t-C₄H₉, X = SCH₃, SO₂CH₃, N⁺ (CH₃)₃, Cl) by potassium amide in liquid ammonia has been studied. In all reactions the formation of the corresponding 3-amino-1,2,4-triazines takes place; in some reactions by-products were found: from 5-phenyl- and 5-t-butyl-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazine a ring contracted product i.e. 5-phenyl and 5-t-butyl-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazole, from 6-phenyl-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazine the dimer 3,3′-bis-(methylthio)-6,6′-bisphenyl-5,5′-bi-1,2,4-triazine and from 5-t-butyl-3-(trimethylammonio)-1,2,4-triazine chloride compound bis-(5-t-butyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)- amine. Furthermore the conversion of 5-phenyl- and 5-t-butyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-one into the corresponding 3-amino compound by treatment with phenyl phosphorodiamidate (PPDA) was studied. A ¹⁵N study of these aminations showed that nearly all compounds undergo substitution according to both S_N(AE) and S_N(ANRORC) processes. The contribution of each of the competitive mechanisms to the amination is strongly influenced by the character of the leaving group.     

The Reactions of 6-(tert-Butyl)-3-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one with Carbonyl Compounds

The reaction of 6-(tert-butyl)-3-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one with acetone and benzaldehyde yields the corresponding hydrazones. In the presence of thionyl chloride the benzaldehyde hydrazone is converted to 3-(tert-butyl)-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazin-2(1H)-one and this can also be formed via the acylation of the starting hydrazinotriazinone using benzoyl chloride.
