Condensed isoquinolines 25. Alkylation of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one

Interaction of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[2,3-b]quinazolin-13-one with alkylating agents occurs at two positions depending on their nature and the reaction conditions-at C₍₆₎ or N₍₅₎. Fusion with methyl tosylate leads to 5-methyl-13-oxo-6,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-5-ium salts, while interaction with benzyl halides in the presence of i-PrONa gave 6-benzyl-and 6,6-dibenzyl-6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones. Alkylation with olefins led to two types of products. In the case of maleinimides and maleic acid anhydride Michael adducts at C₍₆₎ were formed and in the case of cyanocinnamic acid esters the reaction was accompanied by intramolecular acylation at N₍₅₎ to give 1-aryl-3,9-dioxo-3H,9H,11H-benzo[5,6][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-2-carbonitrile. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No.11, 1698–1708, November 2007.

We studied the dependence of the direction of conversions for salts of angular 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one on temperature and the nature of the anion: heating in high-boiling solvents leads either to aromatization of the heterosystem or to the rearrangement product, the linear 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one. When its hydrobromide is heated in high-boiling solvents, along with dimerization of the linear isomers, processes of oxidation at the positions 6 and 11 of the heterosystem occur. The dimer obtained in the reaction with morpholine is readily cleaved, with formation of a 6-(4-morpholyl)-substituted linear compound. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 430–439, March, 2007.     

Condensed isoquinolines 24. Reaction of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one with carbonyl compounds

The reaction of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one with carbonyl compounds occurs at the C₍₆₎ and/or N₍₅₎ atoms depending on the nature of the reagent and the conditions. Condensation with aldehydes gives 6-arylidene-6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones. Acylation using acid anhydrides or acid chlorides gave 5-acyl-, 6-acyl-, and 5,6-diacyl-5,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones depending again on the reaction conditions. Acylation using chloroacetyl chloride is accompanied by an intramolecular alkylation to give 7H,8H-2a, 7a-diaza-cyclopenta[f,g]naphthacene-1,7(2H)-dione. Phenyl isocyanate gave the derivative containing a CONHPh group at position 6. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1509–1520, October, 2007.

Condensation of 2-(cyanomethyl)benzoic acid with 2-aminobenzylamine gave 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one. Its oxidation in nitrobenzene led to the formation of 5,13,5′,13′-hexahydro[6,6′]bi[isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline]-11,11′-dione, but in dichlorobenzene in the presence of elemental sulfur and iodine it gave the rearrangement product 6H-dibenzo[b,f][1,8]naphthyridin-5-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No.2, 273–279, February, 2008.

Heating 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one with isonicotinoyl chloride in pyridine gives 6-isonicotinoyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one. The 1-alkyl-4[(11-oxo-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-6-yl)carbonyl]pyridinium iodides obtained by alkylation of 6-isonicotinoyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one using alkyl iodides in the presence of NaH are converted to 1′-R-spiro[7H,8H-2a,7a-diazacyclopenta[fg]naphthacene-2,4′(1′H)-pyridine]-1,8(2H)-diones.

Condensed isoquinolines 30. Acylation and alkylation of 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino-[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-11-one

It was shown that 6-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones are formed when 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one is heated with the chlorides and anhydrides of carboxylic acids in the presence of bases (pyridine, NaOAc) while 5-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones are formed in the presence of NaH. In the presence of NaH 6-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones form the products from acylation and alkylation at position 5. The action of heat on 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one in oxalyl chloride leads to 7H,8H-2a,7a-diazacyclopenta[fg]naphthacene-1,2,8-trione. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 741–750, May, 2008.

The reaction of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones with o-xylidene dibromide leads to 11-oxo-4bH,5H,10H,11H,16H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene bromides, which are converted to 11-oxo-10H,11H,16H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene salts upon oxidation using nitrobenzene. The reaction of these salts with benzylamine leads to 6-{2-[(benzylimino)methyl]phenyl}-7,12-dihydroisoquino[3,2-b][2]benzazepin-14(6H)-ones, which recyclize to 11-oxo-5H,10H,11H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene perchlorates upon the action of perchloric acid. The reactions of the 10a,15b-diazadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene salts obtained with NaBH₄ were studied and the structures of the reduction products were determined by spectral methods. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 280–292, February, 2008.

The direction of the reaction of anthranilic acids with o-bromomethylphenylacetonitrile upon fusion depends on the temperature and nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. The reaction may lead to three types of products: Derivatives of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones below 150°C and to 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one or derivatives of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones above 150°C depending on the nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. A study was carried out on the mechanism for the formation of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones, which permitted the preparation of 6-(4-methylphenyl)-6,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1059–1067, July, 2007.

The reaction of substituted anthranilic acids and esters with o-bromomethylphenylacetonitrile give 2,3-R,R¹-7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one hydrobromides. It was found that 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones can exist in the two tautomeric imine and enamine forms. The tautomeric equilibrium position depends on the nature and position of the substituent in the quinazoline fragment.

Condensed isoquinolines 31. Reaction of 5-aryl-3-halo-12H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolines with electrophilic reagents

Treatment of 5-aryl-3-halo-12H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolines with electrophilic reagents readily forms their oxidation products. Acylation of the 3-chloro-5-phenyl-7,12-dihydroisoquino[2,3-a]quinazolinium perchlorate with Ac₂O in the presence of pyridine gave the product of electrophilic substitution at the C-7 atom 1-(3-chloro-5-phenyl-12H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-7-yl)-1-ethanone. By the same route phenacyl bromides react with the anhydro base 1 to give 5-aryl-7-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3-halo-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-13-ium bromides. These salts readily react with nucleophilic reagents to form the products of addition at the C-12 atom. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1044–1052, July, 2008.     

Reaction of diketene with cyanothioacetamide: A convenient and regioselective method for the preparation of new 4(1H)-pyridone derivatives

The reaction of diketene with cyanothioacetamide in dry dioxane in the presence of triethylamine gives triethylammonium 3-cyano-6-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyridinethiolate. The regioselective S-alkylation of this thiolate is a convenient method for the preparation of substituted 4(1H)-pyridones and also derivatives of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine and thieno[2,3-b]pyridine. The action of 2-amino-1,1,3-tricyanopropene on this thiolate leads to its transformation into a new heterocyclic system, namely, 5H-pyrido[2′,3′:4,5]thiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine; treatment with iodine yields the oxidation product, namely, the corresponding bis(2-pyridyl) disulfide. The structure of isopropyl (3-cyano-6-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyridinyl)thioacetate was confirmed by X-ray diffraction structural analysis. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 716–725, May, 2007.

Borohydride reduction in a series of 7-benzyl- and newly synthesized 7-arylmethylene-7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones leads stereoselectively to erythro-7-benzyl-6,6a,7,12-tetrahydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones. 7,7-Disubstituted 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones are inert to the action of sodium borohydride, but spiro[5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-7(12H),2'-indane]-5-one is reduced under rigid conditions to 6,6a-dihydrospiro[5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-7(12H),2'-indan]-5-one. 7-Acetyl- and 7-benzoyl-6,11-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones are converted in an aqueous alcoholic solution of sodium borohydride to the previously described 6,6a,7,12-tetrahydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one.

Reactions of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde

The Knoevenagel condensations of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde with seven compounds containing an active methyl or methylene group have been studied.
