The reaction of the isoindole–isoindoline isomers of the thieno[3′,2′:5,6]pyrimido[2,1-a]isoindol-6(10H)-one with aldehydes gives new benzylidene thieno[3′,2′:5,6]pyrimido[2,1-a]isoindol-6(10H)-one derivatives. The structures were assessed with NMR, UV spectroscopy and mass spectra.     

New heterocyclic structures. [1,2,5]Thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido-[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine and thiazolo[3,2a][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

Derivatives of two new molecular structures, namely, 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one and 6,7-dihydro-9H-thiazolo[3,2-a][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-d][pyrimidin-9-one, and derivatives of N-substituted sulfamic acid, namely, (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid and (7-amino-2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-on-6-yl)sulfamic acid, were separated out as by-products in the reduction reaction of 8-amino-3,4-dihydro-7-nitroso-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1- b][1,3]thiazin-6-one and 7-amino-2,3-dihydro-6-nitroso-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one derivatives, respectively, with sodium hydrosulfite. A mechanism of reaction, which hypothesizes the action of sodium hydrosulfite in an asymmetic form, is proposed. The results of single-crystal X-ray investigation on 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one (R = 0.032 for 863 reflections) and (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b]- [1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid, sodium salt (R = 0.028 for 3507 reflections) are reported.

Diverse synthesis of pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles and imidazo[2,1-b]benzothiazoles via CuI-catalyzed decarboxylic multicomponent reactions of heterocyclic azoles,aldehydes and alkynecarboxylic acids

We have developed a straightforward approach to diverse synthesis of 2,3-, 2,4-disubstituted pyrimido [1,2-a]benzimidazoles, 2,4,10-trisubstituted 2,10-dihydropyrimido [1,2-a]benzimidazoles and 2,3-disubstituted imidazo [2,1-b]benzothiazoles via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) of heterocyclic azoles, aldehydes with easily storable and handling alkynecarboxylic acids. In the presence of a catalytic amount of CuI and K₂CO₃, the pyrimido [1,2-a]benzimidazole or imidazo [2,1-b]benzothiazole scaffold could be rapidly constructed through a 6-endo-dig or 5-exo-dig cyclization, respectively. The preliminary mechanistic study suggested that the formation of 2,3- disubstituted pyrimido [1,2-a]benzimidazoles, which completes the assembly of the scaffold and its C-3 position functionalization in one pot, undergoes a novel cascade process involving a decarboxylation, A [3] coupling, 6-endo-dig cyclization, nucleophilic addition and dehydration.     

Preparation of imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(3H)-ones and related tricyclic systems using a novel,double displacement reaction

New methodology is described for the construction of tricyclic heterocycles. Thus, a double displacement reaction of l-(2-fluorobenzoyl)-2-methylthio-2-imidazoline ( 8a ) with 1,1-dialkylhydrazines gave 10-substituted 2,10-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(3H)-ones in good yield. The corresponding 1-(2-nitrobenzoyl)-2-meth-ylthio-2-imidazolines also underwent double displacement reactions with hydrazines. Other tricyclics made using double displacement reactions were pyrimido[2,1-b]quinazolines, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines, and imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines. Treatment of 8a with hydrazine hydrate or methylhydrazine gave products resulting from displacement, but did not afford fused benzotriazepinones.

Compounds 4 and 10 reacted with phosphorus pentasulfide to give the respective 5-thione analogues, 5 from 4 and 11 from 10 . Boiling the 5-thione derivatives with hydrazine hydrate, the respective 5-hydrazono derivatives 6 from 5 and 12 from 11 were obtained. The 5-acetyl hydrazono, 7 , and the 5-isopropylidenehydrazono, 8 , derivatives were also prepared from 6 , and the 5-propionylhydrazono derivatives, 13 , from 12 . Compound 4 reacted with hydrazine to give an adduct with two molecules of hydrazine and the probable structure 16 . Treating this adduct with acetone a monohydrazone 17 was obtained. Boiling a suspension of this adduct in DMF, it gave 6,10-dihydro-6H-pyrido[3′,2′:5,6]pyrimido[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-5-one 20 .

Synthesis of imidazobenzothiazine and primidobenazothiazine derivatives via the classic Ullmann cross-coupling reaction of 1,8-diiodonaphthalene with 1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-thiols or 2-thiouracils

A feasible protocol for the synthesis of imidazobenzothiazine and primidobenazothiazine derivatives via the classic copper(I)-catalyzed Ullmann cross-coupling process has been developed. 1,8-Diiodonaphthalene could couple with 2-mercaptobenzimidazoles or 2-thiouracils to give the corresponding benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-b]naphtho[1,8-de][1,3]thiazines and 11H-naphtho[1,8-de]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-11-ones in moderate yields.

Fused pyrimidine systems: XIII. Synthesis and some transformations of 1,3-thiazolo(thiazino)-fused pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidines

2-[Allyl(propargyl)sulfanyl]pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ones at heating in polyphosphoric acid undergo an intramolecular cyclization with the formation of pyrido[4,3-e]thiazolo-[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones of angular structure. Under similar conditions the cyclization of 2-(cinnamylsulfanyl)pyrido[3,4-d]-pyrimidin-4-one results in a linear pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido-[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-6-one. The iodocyclization of the same substrates affords the corresponding 9-(iodomethyl)(iodomethylidene)pyrido[4,3-e][1,3]thiazolo-[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones and 3-iodopyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-6-one of angular structure. 9-(Iodomethyl)-8,9-dihydro-5H-pyrido[4,3-e][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one treated with sodium azide gave 9-(azidomethyl) derivative whose cyclization with substituted alkynes in the presence of copper compounds provided pyrido [4,3-e][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidinylmethyltriazoles.

One-pot three component isocyanide-based reaction: Synthesis of novel tetracyclic fused furo[2′,3′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole

A rapid, efficient and benign protocol has been developed for the construction of potentially biologically active furo[2′,3′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole derivatives as major products along with (3E)-3-[(alkylamino)methylene]-2H-pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-2,4(3H)-dione derivatives as minor products using a one-pot, multi-component reaction of isocyanides, aromatic aldehydes and 2-hydroxy-4H-pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazol-4-one. The significant features of this protocol are the readily available and low-cost starting materials, short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, high yield of products and avoidance of toxic solvents and catalysts. Structures of compounds 4b and 5a were confirmed from single crystal X-ray studies.     

Synthesis of nitrogen heterocycle-fused 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide, quinazolinone, and pyrrolidinone derivatives with a guanidine joint via sequential aza-Wittig reaction/intramolecular NH-addition cyclization/nucleophilic substitution ring closure methodology, using functionalyzed carbodiimides as key intermediates

We achieved efficient synthesis of imidazo- and pyrimido[1,2-b]benzo-1,2,4-thiadiazine-1,1-dioxides by the tandem aza-Wittig reaction/intramolecular NH-nucleophilic addition/NH-nucleophilic substitution cyclization methodology, involving sulfonamide ester-containing carbodiimides as the key intermediates. Similarly, imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolinones, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidinediones, and imidazo[1,2-a]imidazolidinediones were also synthesized through the aza-Wittig reaction-tandem cyclization strategy. When homochiral (l)-alanine methyl ester was incorporated as a building block into the corresponding iminophosphorane starting materials, we obtained optically active imidazo[1,2-b]benzo-1,2,4-thiadiazine and imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolinone derivatives without any racemization through the one-pot tandem methodology.     

Synthesis of pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles from ethyl 2-ethoxymethylidene-3-oxo-3-(polyfluoroalkyl)propionates

Cyclization of ethyl 2-ethoxymethylidene-3-oxo-3-polyfluoroalkylpropionates with benzimidazol-2-amine in boiling 1,4-dioxane followed two concurrent pathways with participation of fluoroacyl and ethoxycarbonyl fragments and formation of, respectively, ethyl 4-hydroxy-4-polyfluoroalkyl-1,4-dihydropyrimido-[1,2-a]benzimidazole-3-carboxylates and 3-polyfluoroacylpyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ols. Dihydropyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole derivatives undergo dehydration to give ethyl 4-(polyfluoroalkyl)pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-3-carboxylates, whereas the hydroxy group in 3-polyfluoroacylpyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ols is capable of being replaced by the amino group of the second benzimidazole molecule with formation of 4-(1H-benzimidazol-2-ylamino)-3-polyfluoroacylpyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles.
