Synthesis of 6-Amino-5-R2-7-(6-R1-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

It has been found that malonodinitrile and 2-(6-R¹-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)acetonitrile in the presence of triethylamine undergo hetarylation by 5,6-dichloro-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitrile at the active methylene group to give the triethylammonium salt of 2-(3-chloro-5,6-dicyano-2-pyrazinyl)malononitrile or 5-chloro-6-cyano(6-R¹-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-quinazolylidene)methyl-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles. Reaction of these with primary amines leads to annelation of the pyrrole ring at the pyrazine [b] edge to give 6-amino-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3,7-tricarbonitriles and 6-amino-5-R²-7-(6-R¹-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles respectively.

Reactions of 5-R-3-amino-1,2,4-triazoles with ethoxymethylideneacetylacetone and ethyl ethoxymethylideneacetoacetate proceeded regioselectively, giving 2-R-7-methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-a]-pyrimidines in good yields. The compounds obtained were characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis (for ethyl 2-ethylthio-7-methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate). The frontier orbitals, the molecular electrostatic potential, and the geometries of the reagent molecules were calculated by the DFT method (B3LYP/6-31G**).

Oxidation of the hydrobromide of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one with dimethyl sulfoxide leads to 11-hydroxy-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline-6,13-dione, and with hydrogen peroxide to the hydrobromide of 2-[(4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolinyl)carbonyl]benzoic acid.
