Synthetic analogues of Peganum alkaloids. III. Pentamethylenequinazolones

Monosubstituted 5-, 6-, and 8-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2,3-pentamethylenequinazolones (1–3) have been syntehsized by the condensation of monosubstituted methoxyanthranilic acids with caprolactam. Demethylation with hydrobromic acid gave the corresponding hydroxy compounds [4–6]. When the 6- and 8-methoxy- and 6- and 8-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2,3-pentamethylenequinazolones (2, 3, 5, and 6) were reduced with zinc in hydrochloric acid, the corresponding quinazoline derivatives (7–10) were obtained. The melting points of the basis and their hydrochlorides are given. Some features of their UV, mass, and PMR spectra are reported.Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Academy of Sciences of the Uzbek SSR, Tashkent.

Addition-Rearrangement of Aryl- and Alkoxysulfonyl Isocyanates with 5-Methyl-Substituted 3,4-Dihydro-2-methoxy-2H-pyrans. Selective Synthesis of Functionalized 2-Piperidones(1)

3,4-Dihydro-2-methoxy-5-methyl-2H-pyran and 3,4-dihydro-2-methoxy-5,6-dimethyl-2H-pyran undergo addition-rearrangement reactions with arylsulfonyl isocyanates to generate the corresponding 3-formyl- and 3-acetyl-6-methoxy-3-methyl-1-(arylsulfonyl)-2-piperidones. For example, 3,4-dihydro-2-methoxy-5-methyl-2H-pyran and phenylsulfonyl isocyanate afforded 3-formyl-6-methoxy-3-methyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-2-piperidone as a separable trans/cis mixture in high yield. The more reactive phenoxysulfonyl and alkoxysulfonyl isocyanates provided analogous results.

Abstract

8-Methoxy-4-phenyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazoline-2(1H)-thione, obtained by the condensation of 2-benzylidene-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydronapthalene-1(2H)-one with thiourea, on reaction with chloroacetic acid and 3-chloropropanoic acid in the presence of the ionic liquid N-methylpyridinium tosylate furnishes 3-methoxy-7-phenyl-7,10-dihydro-5H- benzo[h]thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazoline-9(6H)-one and 3-methoxy-7-phenyl-5,6,10,11-tetrahydro- benzo[h][1,3]thiazino[2,3-b]quinazoline-9(7H)-one. Further, condensation of the thione with 1,2-dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane yields 3-methoxy-7-phenyl-6,7,9,10-tetrahydro-5 H-benzo[h]thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazoline and 3-methoxy-7-phenyl-5,6,7,9,10,11-hexahydrobenzo [h][1,3]thiazino[2,3-b]quinazoline respectively. Arylidene derivatives have been obtained by two routes. The structures of the cyclized compounds have been established on the basis of elemental analysis and spectroscopic data. The synthesized compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity. Some of the compounds showed promising antimicrobial activities.

Condensation of 3,4-diaminomethoxybenzene with α-methylsulfinylacetophenone gave 7-methoxy-2-phenylacetophenone, whereas, the same reaction between 3,4-diaminonitrobenzene and α-methylsulfinylacetophenone yielded 6-nitro-2-phenylquinoxaline.

Synthesis and cytotoxic activity of benzopyranoxanthone analogues of benz.

Condensation of 3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid with phloroglucinol afforded 1,3-dihydroxy-12H-benzo[b]xanthen-12-one. Construction of an additional dimethylpyran ring onto this skeleton, by alkylation with 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-butyne followed by Claisen rearrangement, gave access to a series of benzo[b]pyrano[2,3-i]xanthen-6-ones and benzo[b]pyrano[3,2-h]xanthen-7-ones related to psorospermine and benzo[b]acronycine. In contrast with what is observed in the pyridoacridone and benzopyridoacridone series, the linear benzo[b]-pyrano[2,3-i]xanthen-6-one derivatives were more potent than their angular benzo[b]pyrano[3,2-h]xanthen-7-one isomers. cis-3,4-Diacetoxy-5-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-benzo[b]pyrano[2,3-i]xanthen-6-one, the most active among the new compounds, was more potent than acronycine in inhibiting the proliferation of L1210 murine leukemia cells.

The adducts were oxidized with Ce(NH₄)₂(NO₃)₆ in acetonitrile or reduced with LiAlH₄ in ether to form the corresponding 2-(F-alkyl)lactones or diols respectively in good yields. In the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid, the adducts were refluxed in benzene and CH₃CN to produce the corresponding 2,3-dihydro-4-(F-alkyl) furan and 3,4-dihydro-5-(F-alkyl)-2H-pyran.
