Azines and azoles: CXXVI. First example of a novel heterocyclic system: Pyrimido[1,6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>][1,5]benzodiazepines

4-Hydroxy-5-(2-R-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-4-yl)-2H-1,3-thiazine-2,6-diones readily undergo acylation at the N¹ atom of the benzodiazepine system by the action of acetic anhydride. Heating of the acetylated products in boiling dimethylformamide leads to the formation of 75–93% of the corresponding 7-acetyl-6-R-6,7-dihydropyrimido[1,6-a][1,5]benzodiazepine-1,3-diones that are derivatives of hitherto unknown fused heterocyclic system, pyrimido[1,6-a][1,5]benzodiazepine. 4-Hydroxy-5-(2-R-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-4-yl)-2H-1,3-thiazine-2,6-diones are converted into 1-(2-aminophenyl)-6-(2-R-vinyl)uracils on heating in boiling DMF.

Nitration of 2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one gave its 5-nitro derivative which was subjected to alkylation with dimethyl sulfate, diethyl sulfate, and benzyl(dimethyl)phenylammonium chloride. The resulting 1,3-dimethyl-, 1,3-diethyl-, and 1,3-dibenzyl-5-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones were reduced to the corresponding 1,3-dialkyl-5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, and the latter reacted with itaconic acid to produce 1-(1,3-dialkyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-yl)-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acids. 1-(2-Oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-yl)-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid was obtained by analogous reaction with 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]-pyridin-2-one.

The respective coordination reactions of trans-[ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] with N-[(4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methylidene]thiophene-2-carbohydrazide (Hchrtc) and N-[1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylmethylidene]thiophene-2-carbohydrazide (Hbztc) afforded two novel oxorhenium(V) complexes, cis-[ReOCl₂(chrtc)(PPh₃)] (1) and cis-[ReOCl₂(bztc)(PPh₃)] (2). These metal compounds were elucidated spectroscopically and their solid-state structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Derivatives of α,β-dehydroamino acids: V. Intramolecular cyclization of 2-{2-[(<Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis>)-1-Benzamido-2-phenylvinyl]acetamidomethyl}benzimidazole

Reaction of 4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-one with 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)ethaneamine led to the formation of 2-{2-[(Z)-1-benzamido-2-phenylvinyl]acetamidomethyl}benzimidazole that in a reaction with hexamethyldisilazane in DMF gave 5-benzylidene-1-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-2-phenyl-3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazol-4-one.

Treatment of 5-chloro-2-hydrazino-4-p-tolylsulfonyl-1,3-thiazole with acetylacetone led to the formation of previously unknown 5-chloro-2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4-p-tolylsulfonyl-1,3-thiazole which reacted with O-, S-, and N-centered nucleophiles at the C⁵ atom with high regioselectivity.     

Synthesis of Tetrahydrothiophene 1,1-Dioxides Fused to Oxazolidin-2-one and Morpholin-2-one Fragments

While developing methods of synthesis of sulfolanes fused through the C³–C⁴ bond to oxazolidin-2- one and morpholin-2-one fragments, the reactivity of cis- and trans-isomeric amino alcohols of the sulfolane series toward a number of cyclizing agents was studied. The cis isomers reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and triphosgene to afford the corresponding morpholin-2-ones and oxazolidin-2-ones, whereas the trans isomers gave rise to open-chain aminofumarates and urea derivatives, respectively. The reactions of both cis- and trans-amino alcohols with oxalic acid derivatives (diethyl oxalate, oxalyl chloride) led to the formation of exclusively acyclic mono- and/or diamides.     

Comparative reactivity of substituted 1,3-and 1,4-thiasilinane <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-oxides in the sila-Pummerer rearrangement and inversion of the thiocarbonyl group

The thermal sila-Pummerer rearrangement of diastereomeric 2,3,3-trimethyl-1,3-thiasilinane S-oxides was studied. Introduction of the methyl group in the 2 position of 3,3-trimethyl-3-thiasilinane S-oxide slows down the rearrangement. When heated in CCl₄, the trans isomer (2-Me_eq, SO_eq) converts into the cis isomer (2-Me_eq, SO_ax) which rapidly rearranges into 2,2,7-trimethyl-1,6,2-oxathiasilepane. On the contrary, the isomeric 2,4,4-trimethyl-1,4-thiasilinane S-oxide is thermally stable up to 160°C in DMSO. The inversion at the sulfur atom in 2,3,3-trimethyl-1,3-thiasilinane S-oxides and 2,4,4-trimethyl-1,4-thiasilinane S-oxides under the action of triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate was studied. The trans isomer of 2,3,3-trimethyl-1,3-thiasilinane S-oxide (2-Me_eq, SO_eq) forms with Et₃O⁺BF ₄ ^? a salt which decomposes in two ways. The first involves recovery of the starting sulfoxide due to Sn2 substitution at the carbon atom of the ethoxy group, and the second, convertion into the cis isomer (2-Me_eq, SO_ax) which rearranges into 2,2,7-trimethyl-1,6,2-oxathiasilepane. Under the same conditions, the cis isomer of 2,3,3-trimethyl-1,3-thiasilinane S-oxide (2-Me_eq, SO_eq) decomposes to form siloxanes. trans-2,4,4-Trimethyl-4-thiasilinane S-oxide (2-Me_eq, SO_eq) under the action of Et₃O⁺BF ₄ ^? convers into the cis isomer (2-Me_eq, SO_ax). The B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) theoretical analysis showed that the thermal inversion at the sulfur atom in the compounds studied has a high energy barrier.     

Interaction of 1,5,6,8-tetrahydropyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">е</Emphasis>][1,4]diazepine-4,7-diones with some electrophilic reagents

1,5,6,8-Tetrahydropyrazolo[3,4-e][1,4]diazepine-4,7-diones undergo acylation with acetic anhydride and carbamoylation with p-toluensulfonyl isocyanate at the atom N⁵. Interaction with Vilsmeier- Haack reagent occurs at the atom N⁸, it is followed with the opening of the diazepine cycle and leads to the formation of 2-(1Н-pyrazol-4-yl)-1,3-oxazol-5(4Н)-one derivatives.     

Cyclizations of monocyclic 5-nitropyridin-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Reactions of 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and its N-methyl derivative with hydrazine hydrate led to the formation of (1H-pyrazol-3-yl) acetohydrazide. Under analogous conditions, 1,3-dimethyl-5-nitropyridin2(1H)-one gave rise to 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propionohydrazide, while 6-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one was converted into (5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)acetohydrazide. Hydrazinolysis of 4-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one resulted in the formation of 3-methyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole. The mechanism of recyclization of nitropyridine derivatives by the action of hydrazine hydrate was studied using 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and 1-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one as examples.     

Thermolysis of 1-phthalimidoaziridine-2-carbonitriles in the presence of dipolarophiles

Thermolysis of trans-3-phenyl-1-phthalimidoaziridine-2-carbonitrile and trans-1-phthalimidoaziridine-2,3-dicarbonitrile in the presence of several dipolarophiles involves 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to intermediate azomethine ylides and leads to 1-phthalimidopyrrolidine derivatives with good yields and high stereoselectivity. Thermally induced opening of the three-membered ring in trans-2,3-disubstituted 1-phthalimidoaziridines occurs in conrotatory mode to produce the corresponding cis-azomethine ylides in keeping with the orbital symmetry conservation rules. The relative configuration of substituents in the dipolarophiles is retained, which implies concerted mechanism of the addition.
