Thioureidoquinazolin-4(3H)-ones

3-(N′, N′-Dialkylthioureido)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones prepared by the reaction of 3-aminoquinazolin-4(3H)-one with thiuram disulfides undergo the previously, unknown acid-induced recyclization to give the corresponding 5-(2-aminophenyl)-2-dialkylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles. The structures of the products obtained were confirmed by IR and¹H and¹³C NMR data. A plausible mechanism of the recyclization is discussed.

Reduction of 3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1a ) with sodium borohydride afforded 3-methylthio-1,6-dihydrotriazin-5(4H)-one ( 2b ) selectively. 3-Methylthio-6-t-butyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1d ) reacted with sodium borohydride to give mainly 6-t-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 3d ). The reaction of various 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones with sodium borohydride and the influence of bulkiness and electronic effect of the substituents at the 3- and 6-positions upon the product ratio, are also discussed.     

An efficient HCCP-mediated direct amination of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones

An efficient direct amination of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones has been developed. Treatment of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with HCCP, DIPEA, and N-contained nucleophiles in acetonitrile could be able to form the corresponding 4-aminoquinazoline derivatives. Under the optimal reaction conditions, the amination products were achieved in good yields.     

A new approach to the facile synthesis of mono- and disubstituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones under solvent-free conditions

Quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives were synthesized successfully via a one-pot, three component reaction of isatoic anhydride and an orthoester with ammonium acetate or a primary amine catalyzed by silica sulfuric acid under solvent-free conditions. This is the first report on the synthesis of 2-substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones by this procedure.

Metal-Free,Photoredox-Catalyzed Synthesis of Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazolines Using Trialkylamines as Alkyl Synthon

Highly functionalized quinazolin-4(3H)-ones were synthesized from reactions of N-aryl-2-aminobenzamides with trialkylamines under photocatalytic conditions by using eosin Y (EY) as a catalyst. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions in aqueous acetonitrile and has a broad substrate scope. Mechanistic studies disclosed the electron-donor nature of the intermediate 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one ( 3’ ) in the photocatalytic cycle to afford the 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolin-4(3H)-ones ( 3 ). This methodology has been extended to synthesize benzo [4,5] imidazole[1,2-c] quinazolines and 3 aa on a large scale. Furthermore, the synthesis of potent central nervous system depressant (CNS) drug molecules such as methaqualone ( 3 la ) and mecloqualone ( 3 pa ) was also achieved successfully.     

Thioureas from 3-aminoquinazolin-4(3H)-one. 2. Unusual alkaline recyclization of 3-(N",N",S-trialkylisothioureido)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones into new 1,3,4-oxadiazoles

3-(N",N",S-trialkylisothioureido)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones obtained by the reactions of 3-(N",N"-dialkylthioureido)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with alkyl halides undergo unusual recyclization into 5-(2-aminophenyl)-2-dialkylamino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles under the action of aqueous solutions of alkali, hydrazine, and primary aliphatic amines.

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

An efficient one-pot synthesis of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones, benzoimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-12(6H)-ones and imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(1H)-ones via a palladium-catalyzed domino process has been developed. 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.

Bildung von 5,6-Dihydro-1,3(4H)-thiazin-4-carbonsäure-estern aus 4-Allyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-onen

Formation of Methyl 5,6-Dihydro-l, 3(4H)-thiazine-4-carboxyiates from 4-Allyl-l, 3-thiazol-5(4H)-ones . The reaction of N-[1-(N, N-dimethylthiocarbamoyl)-1-methyl-3-butenyl]benzamid ( 1 ) with HCl or TsOH in MeCN or toluene yields a mixture of 4-allyl-4-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-one ( 5a ) and allyl 4-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl sulfide ( 11 ; Scheme 3). Most probably, the corresponding 1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-thiones B are intermediates in this reaction. With HCl in MeOH, 1 is transformed into methyl 5,6-dihydro-4,6-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3(4H)-thiazine-4-carboxylate ( 12a ). The same product 12a is formed on treatment of the 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-one 5a with HCl in MeOH (Scheme 4). It is shown that the latter reaction type is common for 4-allyl-substituted 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-ones.

An efficient and novel synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones via one-pot, three-component reaction of isatoic anhydride, primary amines and aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O under solvent-free conditions is described. Oxidation of these 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones to their quinazolin-4(3H)-ones was also successfully performed in the presence of Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O. This new method has the advantages of convenient manipulation, short reaction times, excellent yields, very easy work-up, and the use of commercially available, low cost and relatively non-toxic catalyst. The role of Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O was also investigated in these transformations.     

Cascade cyclization of 3(5)-aminopyrazoles with aromatic aldehydes and cyclohexanediones

Three-component condensation of 5(3)-amino-3(5)-methylpyrazole with aromatic aldehydes and 1,3-cyclohexanedione afforded mixtures of 3-methyl-4-aryl-2,4,6,7,8,9-hexa hydro-5H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-5-ones and 2-methyl-9-aryl-5,6,7,9-tetrahydro pyrazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8(4H)-ones. The reaction of 3-aminopyrazolo-4-carbonitrile and ethyl 3-aminopyrazolo-4-carboxylate with aldehydes and cyclo hexanedione or dimedome is regioselective and leads to the formation of partially hydrogenated pyrazolo [5,1-b]quinazolin-8-one systems. In all compounds the dihydroazine ring exists in the enamine tautomeric form.     

Electron ionization mass spectra of some 4β-phenyl-substituted cycloalkane-cis-fused 1,3-oxazin-2(3H)-ones, -2(3H)-thiones and 1,4-oxazepin-3(4H)-ones

The 70 eV mass spectra of 4β-phenyl-substituted cyclopentane- and cyclohexane cis-fused 1,3-oxazin-2(3H)-ones, the two related 2-thiones, 6,7-cis-trimethylene-5β-phenyl-1,4-oxazepin-3(4H)-one and its 2β-methyl derivative were recorded and their fragmentations examined by means of metastable ion analysis, collision induced dissociation technique and exact mass measurement. The fragmentation patterns of the 1,3-oxazin-2(3H)-ones were relatively simple: the favored formation of cycloalkene ions implied that a considerable proportion of the molecular ions might possess an enol structure. Changes in the size of the fused cycloalkane ring had little or no effect on the fragmentations. Instead, small changes in the heterocyclic part of the molecule caused remarkable effects on the fragmentation behavior. Compared to 1,3-oxazin-2(3H)-ones studied, both 1,3-oxazine-2(3H)-thiones and 1,4-oxazepin-3(4H)-ones showed much more complicated fragmentation patterns.     

Cyclisation of 2-(2-aminophenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one reexamined: formation of isomeric angular fused quinazolinoquinazolinones and their spectroscopic identification

Cyclisation of 2-(2-aminophenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones on to N₃ and on to N₁ leading to 6-alkyl-(8H)-quinazolino[4,3-b]quinazolin-8-one and 6-alkyl-(13H)-quinazolino[3,4-a]quinazolin-13-one, respectively was described for the first time. The differences in the IR and carbon NMR data of these isomeric fused quinazolinoquinazolinones afford a useful method for distinguishing between the two series.
