Nicotinic acid esters 3a–c were prepared by the reaction of pyridine-2(1H)-thione derivative 1 with α-halo-reagents 2a–c. Compounds 3a–c underwent cyclization to the corresponding thieno[2, 3-b]pyridines 4a–c via boiling in ethanol/piperidine solution. Compounds 4a–c condensed with dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal (DMF-DMA) to afford 3-{[(N,N-dimethylamino)methylene]amino}thieno[2, 3-b]- pyridine derivatives 6a–c. Moreover, compounds 4a–c and 6a–c reacted with different reagents and afforded the pyrido[3′,2′:4, 5]thieno[3, 2-d]pyrimidine derivatives 10a–d, 11a–c, 12a,b, 14a,b, 17, and 19. In addition, pyrazolo[3, 4-b]pyridine derivative 20 (formed via the reaction of 1 with hydrazine hydrate) reacted with ethylisothiocyanate yielded the thiourea derivative 21. Compound 21 reacted with α-halocarbonyl compounds to give the 3-[(3H-thiazol-2-ylidene)amino]-1H-pyrazolo[3, 4-b]pyridine derivatives 23a–c, 25, and 27a,b.

The interaction of N-acetyl derivative 19 with benzaldehyde and/or some nitroso compounds afforded the chalcones and Schiff's bases derivatives 20 and 26a and c respectively. The latter compounds were used as key intermediates in the synthesis of N-acetylpyrazol-3-yl (21a and 21b), 6-phenylpyrimidine-2-(one)thione (22a and b), pyrazolo-1-carbothioamide (25), and thiazolidinone andβ β-lactam derivatives 28a and 28c and 30a and 30c respectively. The structures of these compounds were established by elemental analysis, infrared (IR), mass spectrometry (MS), and NMR spectral analysis.

The starting material 1,2,4-triazole derivative ( 3 ) was used to synthesize some novel condensed triazoles. Thus, treatment of compound ( 3 ) with phenyl isocyanate in refluxing pyridine furnished the novel [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b][1,2,4]triazole derivative ( 5 ). Also, cyclization of compound ( 3 ) with phenyl isothiocyanate afforded the [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivative ( 7 ). Hydrazone derivative ( 9d ) was allowed to react with some halogenated reagents such as chloroacetone, ethyl chloroacetate, and chloroacetonitrile to furnish thiazole derivatives ( 12 ), ( 13 ), and ( 15 ), respectively. In a similar manner, bishydrazone ( 17 ) was used to prepare the novel bisthiazoles ( 18 ) and ( 19 ). Some of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity.

CHLOROSULFONATION OF 9-ARYLOCTAHYDROXANTHEN-1,8-DIONES

The 9-aryloctahydroxanthen-1,8-diones (3, 4– 24) were prepared by reaction of cyclohexan-1,3-dione (1) with selected arylaldehydes. The xanthendiones (4– 9, 11, 12, 18, 21, 22) were successfully reacted with chlorosulfonic acid, and the crude sulfonyl chlorides were converted into 15 sulfonamides (26– 40) for screening as potential pesticides. Attempted chlorosulfonation of the xanthendiones (13– 17) was unsuccessful. α-Methylcinnamaldehyde was reacted with cyclohexandione (1) to yield the corresponding xanthendione derivative (23). On the other hand, with o-methoxycinnamaldehyde an impure product formed and the p-methoxy isomer afforded the corresponding 2-arylpyran (25). The NMR spectral data of the compounds are briefly discussed.

For the discovery of new antibiotic drugs to face the problem of microbial resistance, a series of fused pyrazoles such as pyrazolopyrimidines 15a–f, pyrazoloquinazolines 18a, b and pyrazolotriazines 20a, b was synthesized via the reaction of 5-aminopyrazoles 8a, b with 3-(dimethylamino)-1-aryl-prop-2-en-1-ones 9a–d, 2-((dimethylamino)methylene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (16) and sodium nitrite (NaNO₂), respectively. Finally, Schiff bases 22a–g were obtained by the condensation of 8a, b with aromatic aldehydes 21a–d. The chemical structure of the new compounds was confirmed by spectroscopy. The structure of 15?b was confirmed by X-ray crystallography analysis. All compounds were screened for antibacterial properties toward multi-drug resistant bacteria (MDRB).     

Synthesis of Polyfunctionally Substituted Pyrazolonaphthyridine,Pentaazanaphthalene, and Heptaazaphenanthrene Derivatives

Also, a series of heptaazadicyclopenta[a,g]naphthalenes (15–17) and heptaazacyclopenta[b]phenanthrenes (18, 19) were obtained via the interaction of 4-(dibenzothiophen-2-yl)-1,5-dihydro-5-imino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1,2,6,8,9-pentaazacyclopenta[b]naphthalen-6-ylamine (14) with different reagents. The structures of the synthesized compounds were established by elemental and spectral analyses.     

2-Alkyliden-1, 3-dithia-Heterocyclen aus 5-Sulfonyl-1, 2-dithiol-3-onen und Alkoholaten

Asymmetrically substituted 5-sulfonyl-1, 3-dithiafulvenes (9a–g), all of which have the same configuration (called α), are obtained by reaction of 4-chloro-5-sulfonyl-1, 2-dithiol-3-ones (3a–e) with sodium alkoxides. Side-products formed are 4-chloro-5-alkoxy-1, 2-dithiol-3-ones (5a and 5b), 3, 5-bis-alkylidene-1, 2, 4-trithiacyclopentanes (21 and 22), and (in some instances) minor amounts of compounds 33, 34, or 35. Reaction of 4-phenyl-5-methylsulfonyl-1, 2-dithiol-3-one with sodium methoxide results in the formation of 4-phenyl-5-methoxy-1, 2-dithiol-3-one (5c), the two cis-trans-isomers of 2, 4-bis-alkylidene-1, 3-dithiacyclobutane 24 and 25, and the 2, 5-bis-alkylidene-1, 2, 4, 5-tetrathiacyclohexane 26. Some conceivable reaction mechanisms are discussed, and proof is given for the structure of the major compounds. By treating 4-chloro-5-(2′-chloro-ethylthio)-1, 2-dithiol-3-one with sodium methoxide, the 2-alkylidene-1, 3-dithiolane 13 is obtained. The sulfonyl groups of the 1, 3-dithiafulvenes 9a–g described may be easily replaced by hydrogen or secondary amines, yielding compounds 14, 16 and 19, respectively. When dissolved in strong acids and reprecipitated, asymmetrically substituted 2-alkylidene-1, 3-dithia compounds may be converted into mixtures of all possible cis-trans-isomers thereof. Those isomers may be separated by fractional crystallization. Isomers 31 (called β) of 9 a--g, and 32 of 16a, b, are obtained accordingly.

Acylation of the thienopyridine derivative ( 4 ) using freshly distilled acetic anhydride gave a mixture of mono and diacetyl derivatives ( 6 ) and ( 7 ). Condensation of ( 4 ) with triethylorthoformate yielded the ethoxymethyleneamino derivative ( 8 ), which was treated with hydrazine hydrate to give the hydrazide derivative ( 9 ), which in turn was converted to a triazolopyrimidine derivative ( 10 ) upon treatment with freshly distilled acetic anhydride. Thiation of ( 4 ) with carbon disulfide afforded the pyrimidine dithione derivative ( 11 ), which was alkylated with ethyl iodide to give the di-s-ethylpyrimidine derivative ( 12 ).On the other hand, treatment of ( 4 ) with formamide yielded the aminopyrimidine derivative ( 13 ), whereas its treatment by formic acid produced the thienopyrimidinone derivative (1 4 ). Chlorination of (1 4 ) with a mixture of phosphorus pentachloride and phosphorus oxychloride gave the chloropyrimidine derivative ( 15 ), which in turn afforded the hydrazide derivative ( 9 ) upon treatment with hydrazine hydrate.

Hydrazonoyl halides (1a–e) react with cycloalkanone oximes (2–6) to give substituted heterocyclic spiro compounds (8–11a–e). Reaction of triazaspiro[4.5]dec-2-ene (9b) with acetic anhydride gave the ring transformation product triazole (17b) instead of the N-acetyl derivative (16b).     

New Look into the Synthesis of Polyhalogenoarylphosphanes

The present study shows new aspects of the synthesis of polyhalogenoarylphosphanes. The sterically hindered anions Ph(R)P-Y^? (1a–c, Y = O, lone pair; R = Ph, Bu^t) have been used to show the complexity of the reaction between phosphorus nucleophiles and hexahalogenobenzenes or 9-bromofluorene (E3). The Ph(Bu^t)P-O^?
