The regio orientation and the structure of the products were confirmed by spectral and analytical data and synthesis via an alternative route. The procedure proved to be simple, efficient, and high yielding, and diversities of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines were obtained.

The N-benzylation of the highly insoluble cyclic amides to yield the isomeric N-benzyl derivatives 3/1, 3/2 and 3/3 distinguished by INAPT was performed through their readily soluble tetrabutylammonium salts.     

Synthesis and reactivity of some imidazo‐, triazolo‐ and tetrazolo‐isoquinoline derivatives

1‐Acetylirrüno‐3‐methyl‐1H‐isochromene‐4‐carbonitrile, 1 , reacts with glycine ethyl ester under basic conditions to give an imidazo[2,1‐a]isoquinoline derivative, while reaction with hydrazine hydrate in 1,4‐dioxane, with further chemistry, provides access to [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐a]isoquinoline, [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐a]isoquinoline and tetrazolo[5,1‐a]isoquinoline analogs. Benzene ring nitration and radical bromination of substituent methyl groups were investigated in the four tricycles, with some different positional reactivities being found. Two bromomethyl derivatives so produced were oxidised; ethyl 2‐bromomethyl‐6‐cyano‐5‐methylimidazo[2,1‐a]isoquinoline‐3‐carboxylate gave the anticipated ethyl 6‐cyano‐2‐formyl‐5‐methylimidazo[2,1‐a]isoquinoline‐3‐carboxylate (which reacted further with hydrazine to form a new system, 8,9‐dihydro‐6‐methyl‐8‐oxopyridazino[4′,5′:4,5]imidazo[2,1‐a]isoquinoline‐5‐carbonitrile), while 5‐bromomethyl‐2‐methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐a]isoquinoline‐6‐carbonitrile unexpectedly gave directly another new system, 5,6‐dihydro‐5‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐7H‐pyrrolo[3,4‐c][1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐a]isoquinolin‐7‐one.     

Synthesis of Condensed and Uncondensed Tetrazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>][1,2,4]triazines as Potential Antimicrobial Agents

Summary. Reactions of two cyclic amidrazones, the 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-hydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines with mono- and dicarbonyl compounds afforded various heterocyclic systems. Thus, acetic acid, benzoyl chloride, or ethyl chloroformate reacted with the former cyclic amidrazones to yield the corresponding [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines. With pyruvic acid or ethyl pyruvate the corresponding hydrazone derivatives were obtained, which then cyclized to tetrazolo[1′,5′:2,3][1,2,4]triazino[5,4-c][1,2,4]triazines. The 9,10-dioxotetrazolo-triazinotriazine structures were synthesized by condensative cyclization of the cyclic amidrazones with diethyl oxalate, whereas the reaction of these amidrazones with acetylacetone or ethyl acetoacetate furnished pyrazolyltetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines through the isolable hydrazone intermediates. Some of the representative members of the prepared compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity.     

Formylation of 4,7‐Dihydro‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines Using Vilsmeier–Haack Conditions

Formylation of 5‐methyl‐7‐phenyl‐4,7‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine 1a using Vilsmeier–Haack conditions yields 5‐methyl‐7‐phenyl‐4,7‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidin‐6‐ylcarbaldehyde 3a . 5,7‐Diaryl‐4,7‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines 1b , 1c in this reaction apart from formylation undergo recyclization into 5‐aryl‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidin‐6‐ylmethane derivatives 4b , 4c , 5b , 5c , and 6 . The structure of the synthesized compounds was determined on the basis of NMR, IR, and MS spectroscopic data and confirmed by the X‐ray analysis of the 6‐(ethoxy‐phenyl‐methyl)‐5‐phenyl‐[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine 6 , 5‐phenyl‐6‐(1‐phenyl‐vinyl)‐[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine 11 , and 7‐phenyl‐6‐(1‐phenyl‐vinyl)‐[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidine 12 .     

A synthesis of 6-functionalized 4,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

6-Unsubstituted 7-R-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (R = H or Me) were synthesized via two pathways: (a) deacylation of the corresponding 5-acetyl Biginelli-like precursors in KOH/H₂O and (b) reduction of the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines using LiAlH₄. The products could be easily formylated at position 6, which is promising for the further synthesis of functionalized 6-substituted derivatives of 4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. In contrast, 6-acetyl-7-(4-(N,N-dimethylaminophenyl))-5-methyl-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine undergoes a cascade process in KOH/H₂O, leading to the formation of a 4,5,8,9-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline derivative.     

A Convenient Approach to 4,7‐Dihydrotetrazolo [5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazine Synthesis

Azo coupling of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds with tetrazolyl‐5‐diazonium chloride is used to develop a convenient one‐step procedure for the synthesis of 4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines. In contrast to nonfluorinated analogs, 7‐hydroxy‐7‐polyfluoroalkyl‐4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines undergo a ring‐chain isomerism resulting from the cleavage at the C7―N7a bond. A distinctive feature of nonfluorinated 4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines is the possibility to dehydration, which is accompanied by an azide rearrangement due to the tetrazole ring cleavage with the formation of tetrazolo[1,5‐b][1,2,4]triazines.     

Fluorinated [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidines and [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>][1,2,4]triazines*

The reaction of 3-R-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid gave 2-R-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-ones. The reaction of a 3-R-1,2,4-triazolyl-5-diazonium salt with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid and subsequent cyclization of the triazolylhydrazones lead to 7-R-3-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(1H)-ones.

E‐3‐(N,N‐Dimethylamino)‐1‐(3‐methylthiazolo[3,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2‐yl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐one ( 2 ) was synthesized by the reaction of 1‐(3‐methylthiazolo[3,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2‐yl)ethanone ( 1 ) with dimethylformamide‐dimethylacetal. The reaction of 2 with 5‐amino‐3‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazole ( 4a ) or 3‐amino‐1,2,4‐(1H)‐triazole ( 4b ) furnished pyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine and 1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine derivatives 6a and 6b , while the reaction of enaminone 2 with 6‐aminopyrimidine derivatives 7a,b afforded pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidine derivatives 9a,b , respectively. The diazonium salts 11a or 11b coupled with compound 2 to yield the pyrazolo[5,1‐c]‐1,2,4‐triazine and 1,2,4‐triazolo[5,1‐c]‐1,2,4‐triazine derivatives 13a and 13b . Some of the newly synthesized compounds exhibited a moderate effect against some bacterial and fungal species.

Derivatives of the linear tricyclic system, 5,6-dihydro-7H-thiopyrano[3,2-d][1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-a]pyrimidine, were prepared by condensation of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole with ethyl 3-oxo-tetrahydropyran-2-carboxylate. The tricyclic heteroaryl-piperazines lacked significant hypoglycemic activity.
