Synthesis and characterization of silica-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticle@silylpropyl triethylammonium polyoxometalate as an organic–inorganic hybrid heterogeneous catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of tetrahydrobenzimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1(2H)-ones

In this study, silica-coated Fe₃O₄ nanoparticle@silylpropyl triethylammonium polyoxometalate catalyst was fabricated and characterized using atomic absorption, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier-transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry analyses. The activity of this catalyst was examined in the synthesis of tetrahydrobenzimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-1(2H)-ones. The bonding of the polyoxometalate to the surface of the nanoparticles exhibited excellent catalytic activity in this synthesis. Besides, the catalyst showed good reusability and recovery from the reaction mixture.

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.

Reactions of 4-ethoxycarbonylamino-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine-3-carbonitrile (2) with aliphatic primary amines gave 1-substituted 4-(2-aminoanilino)pyrimidin-2(1H)-one-5-carbonitriles 3. Analogous reactions of 2 with aromatic primary amines afforded 2-(2′-anilino-1′-cyanovinyl)benzimidazoles 5 and 6. Upon treatment with triethylamine, 3 underwent intramolecular cyclization to give 3-substituted 5-aminopyrimidino[4,5-b]-[1,5]benzodiazepin-2(3H,11H)-ones 8 .

Summary.  A facile and efficient synthesis of a series of novel 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolines is described. 2,3-Diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones were obtained by reaction of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with aromatic aldehydes as well as by ring closure of the corresponding anils.

Nitrogen bridgehead compounds. Part 85. Synthesis and reactivity of 3,4-dihydro-1H,6H[1,4]oxazino[3,4-b]quinazolin-6-ones

3,4-Dihydro-1H,6H-[1,4]oxazino[3,4-b]quinazolin-6-one 3 and its 1-methyl and 1-hydroxy derivatives 8 and 13 were prepared by different routes. The active methylene group of compound 3 was reacted with electro-hilic reagents (bromine, phenyldiazonium chloride, nitrous acid, a Vielsmeier-Haack reagent, aromatic aldehydes and diethyl oxalate) to yield 1-substituted-3,4-dihydro[1H,6H)-1,4-oxazino[3,4-b]quinazo-lin-6-ones.

Convenient synthesis of 6,7-dihydroazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8(5H)-one derivatives

Three-component condensation of 3(5)-aminoazoles with benzaldehydes and dimedone in acetonitrile in the presence of montmorillonite KSF as heterogeneous catalyst regioselectively afforded 5,6,7,9-tetrahydroazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8(4H)-one derivatives in good yields. Oxidation of the condensation products with ceric ammonium nitrate in acetone gave the corresponding 6,7-dihydroazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8(5H)-ones.     

One-pot synthesis of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and fused quinazolinones by a palladium-catalyzed domino process

The Pd-catalyzed reactions of 2-azidobenzamides 1 with isocyanides 2 produced quinazolin-4(3H)-ones 4 at room temperature by a domino Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling/carbodiimide-mediated cyclization. However, as 2-azido-N-(2-bromophenyl)benzamides 1 were used under heating condition in the presence of Cs₂CO₃, the benzoimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-12(6H)-ones 5 were directly obtained by twice Pd-catalyzed domino cyclization. A domino reogioselective 5-exo-dig intramolecular cyclization reaction of alkynyl-containing azides 6 with isocyanides 2 generated imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(1H)-ones 9 in 74–93% yields in the presence of catalyst Pd(PPh₃)₄ and K₂CO₃.

Synthesis of some novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolines and their fused derivatives

New pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline-3-carbonitriles 4a,b were obtained via cyclocondensation of 5-amino-3-cyanomethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (1) with enaminones of 1,3-cyclohexanedione derivatives 2a,b in refluxing glacial acetic acid. Condensation of compounds 4a,b with various aromatic aldehydes furnished the corresponding arylidene derivatives 6a–j. On the other hand, condensation of 4a,b with o-hydroxybenzaldehydes yielded the polyheterocyclic compounds 10a–h. Coupling of compounds 4a,b with aryldiazonium chlorides led to formation of 2-arylhydrazono derivatives 12a–h. Also, reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate, followed by addition of ethyl chloroacetate and chloroacetonitrile, afforded the polyheterocyclic compounds based on pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline core. The reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate and elemental sulfur gave the thiazole-2-thione derivatives 25a,b. The reaction of enamines of compounds 4a,b with each of hydrazine hydrate and guanidine hydrochloride afforded pyrazolo[4″,3″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-8-ones 30a,b and pyrimido[5″,4″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-9(10H)-ones 33a,b, respectively. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by elemental analyses and spectral data. The plausible mechanisms have been postulated to account for their formation.
