Synthesis of 3-substituted-4-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-á]pyrimidines

The reactions between 3-benzoyl-2-isothiocyanato-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene and hydrazine or primary amines have been studied. The products obtained were identified as derivatives of 4-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3,5,6,7,8-hexahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine. Their easy reduction with sodium borohydride provided a useful method for the synthesis of 3-substituted-4-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines. Both kind of compounds were evaluated as potential analgesic, anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic agents.

Novel Selected Tandem Transformations of the Amino and Carbonyl/Nitrile Groups in the Gewald Thiophenes

Novel transformations of the amino and carbonyl/nitrile groups in the Gewald thiophenes were studied for thienopyrimidine synthesis. It was found that 2-amino-thiophene-3-carboxamides and ethyl 2-(acetylamino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbo- xylate did not yield tetrazole derivatives, neither in the reaction with triethyl orthoformate and sodium azide, nor in the reaction with phosphorus oxychloride and sodium azide, correspondingly. On the contrary, derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one were isolated. New 2-azidothiophenes [2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetra hydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile and 2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-3-yl(phenyl)methanone] were synthesized and used in anionic domino reactions with activated acetonitriles to yield thieno[3,2-e][1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and/or 2-(5-amino-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)thiophenes. Finally, a new ring system of thieno[3,2-e]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine was synthesized via a domino reaction of ethyl 2-[(2Z)-2-(1-chloro-2-ethoxy-2-oxoethylidene)hydrazino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxylate with activated acetonitriles.     

A facile one-pot synthesis of 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones

Abstract  

The reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one or its 2-methylthio derivative with hydrazonoyl halides, in the presence of triethylamine, yielded 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The structure of the latter compounds was further confirmed by reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one with the appropriate active chloromethylenes followed by coupling of the products with benzenediazonium chloride to afford the non-isolable azo-coupling products which converted, in situ, to 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The reaction mechanism was proposed and the products were screened for their biological activity. Some of the newly synthesized compounds had a moderate effect against some bacterial and fungal species.     

Synthesis of Hexa- and Octahydropyrido[3'2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines

The reaction of N-methylmorpholinium 4-(2-chlorophenyl)-5-cyano-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine-6-thiolate with chloroacetamide in DMF in the presence of an excess of KOH gave 3-amino-2-carbamoyl-4-(2-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]pyridine. Refluxing the latter with acyl chlorides in AcOH or heating in formic acid gave hexahydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives and reaction with cyclohexanone gave a spiro-linked octahydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine.     

Convenient synthesis and anticancer evaluation of novel pyrazolyl-thiophene,thieno[3,2-b]pyridine,pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine and pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine derivatives

The newly synthesized 3-(3-amino-5-(phenylamino)-4-(phenylcarbamoyl)thiophen-2-yl)-3-oxopropanoate was utilized as a precursor for the synthesis of pyrazolyl-thiophene derivative, which undergoes cyclization upon treatment with benzaldehyde derivatives to provide pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines. Basic treatment of pyrazolyl-thiophene derivative with phenyl isothiocyanate followed by subsequent addition of chloroacetone and/or ethyl bromoacetate yielded the thiazolylidene-pyrazolyl thiophenes. In addition, the building block 3-(3-amino-5-(phenylamino)-4-(phenylcarbamoyl)thiophen-2-yl)-3-oxopropanoate was converted into the corresponding thieno[3,2-b]pyridine compounds through its reactions with (DMF-DMA) and/or heating in sodium ethoxide. Moreover, the reaction of 7-hydroxy-5-oxo-N-phenyl-2-(phenylamino)-4,5-dihydrothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide with 2-arylidenemalononitrile produced the new annulated pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines. The prepared thiophene-based compounds were evaluated against HepG2, PC3, and MCF-7 cancer cells, and normal fibroblast cell (WI38). The pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine and pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine compounds substituted with chlorophenyl group presented promising cytotoxic activities against HepG2 cancer cell line without any human toxicity. Docking study for the synthesized thiophene compounds delivered valuable insights about the binding interactions with the crystal structure of NS5B enzyme with PDB ID (4TLR).     

Impact of Heterocycle Annulation on NIR Absorbance in Quinoid Thioacene Derivatives

The synthesis and characterisation of a homologous series of quinoid sulfur-containing imidazolyl-substituted heteroacenes is described. The optoelectronic and magnetic properties were investigated by UV/vis, fluorescence and EPR spectroscopy as well as quantum-chemical calculations, and were compared to those of the corresponding benzo congener. The room-temperature and atmospherically stable quinoids display strong absorption in the NIR region between 678 and 819 nm. The dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]thiophene and the thieno[2′,3′:4,5]thieno[3,2-b]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene derivatives were EPR active at room temperature. For the latter, variable-temperature EPR spectroscopy revealed the presence of a thermally accessible triplet state, with a singlet-triplet separation of 14.1 kJ mol⁻¹.

Construction of new heteroacenes based on benzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene / quinoline or 1,8-naphthyridine systems using the Friedländer reaction

Two new classes of heteroacenes, namely benzo[4′,5′]thieno[2′,3′:4,5]thieno[3,2-b]quinolines and benzo[4′,5′]thieno[2′,3′:4,5]thieno[3,2-b][1,8]naphthyridines, have been formed using the Friedländer reaction to annulate the benzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene scaffold to quinoline or 1,8-naphthyridine fragments. In accordance with this synthetic strategy, benzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]thiophen-3(2H)-ones were treated with 2-aminobenzaldehydes or 2-aminonicotinaldehyde in the presence of pyrrolidine in glacial acetic acid at reflux to give the desired quinoline- or 1,8-naphthyridine-fused compounds, respectively. The optical and electrochemical properties of selected heteroacenes were determined.

These two derivatives underwent cyclocondensation reactions with commercially available reactants to afford new heterocycles containing the thieno[2,3-b]pyridine moiety.

Benzo[b]thiophene derivatives. XXV. Condensation and reductive alkylation of 3-aminoalkylbenzo[b]thiophenes with formaldehyde

The reductive alkylation of 3-aminomethylbenzo[b]thiophene by the Eschweiler-Clarke (formaldehyde-formic acid) method and of 3-β-aminoethylbenzo[b]thiophene by the Borch (formaldehyde-cyanoborohydride) method proceeded in good yields. However, the Eschweiler-Clarke reaction with 3-β-aminoethylbenzo[b]thiophene gave the Pictet-Spengler cyclized product, N-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3c]pyridine. Mechanistic aspects of the latter reaction were investigated.

The syntheses of the K-oxides and K-imine derivatives of benzo[b]phenanthro[2,3-d]thiophene and benzo-[b]phenanthro[3,2-d]thiophene are described. The parent hydrocarbons 1 and 2 were oxidized with osmium tetroxide and sodium metaperiodate, and the dialdehydes 12 and 18 so formed, cyclized to the corresponding epoxides 1a,12b-dihydrobenz[b]oxireno[9,10]phenanthro[2,3-d]thiophene ( 7 ) and 1a,12b-dihydrobenz-[b]oxireno[9,10]phenanthro[3,2-d]thiophene ( 13 ).
