The reaction of 2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal gave in good yield 4-dimethylaminomethylene-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)dione (II), which afforded 1-substituted 5,7-dihydrothiopyrano[3,4-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones with aliphatic and aromatic hydrazines, 5H-thiopyrano[4,3-d]isoxazol-4(7H)-one (IV) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and 2-substituted 6H-thiopyrano[3,4-d]pyrimidin-5(8H)-ones with amidines and guanidines, generally in satisfactory yields. 4-(t-Butylhydrazonoformyl)-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione was isolated as an intermediate in the reaction of II with t-butylhydrazine, whereas formamidine gave with II 4-iminoformyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione as the sole product. The isoxazole IV isomerized easily with sodium methoxide to 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-5,5-dihydroxy-3-oxo-2H-thiopyrano-4-carbonitrile.     

Purines, pyrimidines, and related fused systems. 21. Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione

Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione with primary alkylamines and potassium amide in liquid ammonia gives rise to the corresponding 4-amino derivatives as the major products. The reactions with acyclic secondary amines are accompanied by annelation of the pyrrole moiety to the starting heterosystem to form 1-R-3-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[2",3";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones. The reaction with piperidine as the aminating agent occurs exclusively as aminodehalogenation. The Sonogashira cross-coupling of 4-amino-3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones with terminal alkynes affords 1-R-2-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3",2";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones.

Dedicated to Professor Dr. Hans Junek, Graz, on the occasion of his 70th birthday A novel efficient synthesis of pyrano fused heterocycles namely, pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5(6H)-diones 3a-e, 7b-d , pyrano[3,2-c]benzopyran-2,5(6H)-dione ( 7f ), and pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine-2,5(6H)-diones 10, 11 was achieved by the condensation of 4-hydroxy-2-(1H)-quinolones 1a-e , 4-hydroxycoumarin ( 1f ), or 4-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridone ( 9 ) with α-acetyl-γ-butyrolactone ( 2 ) or the sodium salt of α-formyl-γ-butyrol-actone ( 6 ), respectively, in the presence of ammonium acetate.     

Synthesis of thietanyl-substituted pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dions

Reactions of 6-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione or 5-hydroxy-6-methyl-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione with 2-chloromethylthiirane afforded the corresponding substituted 1-(thietan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones. The calculations in the framework of approximations PBE/3z, B3LYP/6-31G++(d,p) and MP2/6-31G++(d,p) showed that the alkylation occurred at the atom N¹ of the pyrimidine ring.     

Synthesis of 5′-azido- and 5′-amino-2′,5′-dideoxynucleosides from quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones

Quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones 4 were silylated and condensed with methyl 5-azido-2,5-dideoxy-3-O-(4-methylbenzoyl)-α,β-D-erythro-pentofuranoside (3) using trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMS triflate) as the catalyst to afford the corresponding 5′-azidonucleosides 5 . 1-(5-Azido-2,5-dideoxy-α-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones 6 and the corresponding β anomers were obtained by treating 5 with sodium methoxide in methanol at room temperature. 6-Methyl-1-(5-amino-2,5-dideoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (8) was obtained by treatment of the corresponding azido derivative 7 with triphenylphosphine in pyridine, followed by hydrolysis with ammonium hydroxide.     

1,2,4-Triazines, 9. The synthesis of novel 4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazinones

3-Alkylthio-4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones were synthesized by the reduction of 3-thio-4-amino-1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2.H,4H)-diones and successive S-alkylation. The regiospecific alkylation on the N-1 position or the exo amino group leads to a variety of 1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one derivatives. An alternative synthesis of 3-thio-4-amino-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-diones was accomplished through the cyclization of 1-thiocarbohydrazidoacetamide derivatives.

Treatment of 6-amino-5-arylazo-1,3-dimethyluracils with urea or N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole gave the respective 6-aryl-1,3-dimethyl-6,7-dihydro-6-azalumazin-7-(6H)ones, which were hydrolyzed with alkali to afford 2-aryl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-triazine-6-carboxylic acids (1-aryl-6-azauracil-5-carboxylic acids). Thermal decomposition of these carboxylic acids gave the corresponding 2-aryl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)diones (1-aryl-6-azauracils). Methylation of the latter with methyl iodide gave the corresponding 2-aryl-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)diones (1-aryl-3-methyl-6-azauracils).     

[4+2] Cycloaddition of 2(1H)-pyrazinones and 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-diones

The reaction of 2(1H)-pyrazinones 1 and 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-diones 3 was investigated by comparing that of 1 with singlet oxygen. 2(1H)-Pyrazinones 1 reacted in Diels-Alder fashion with 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-diones 3 to afford [4+2]-adducts 4–17 in high yields.

The reaction of 3-acetyl-6,6-dimethyltetrahydrothiopyran-2,4-dione with diazomethane furnishes a mixture of 3-acetyl-6,6-dimethyl-4-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-thiopyran-2-one and 3-acetyl-6,6-dimethyl- 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-thiopyran-4-one in 2:3 ratio, whereas in reaction with dimethyl sulfate in the presence of potassium carbonate forms a mixture of the same products in 9:1 ratio. In both reactions the overall yield of ethers amounts to 50%. Treating of regioisomeric enol methyl ethers with pyrrolidine, o-toluidine, and allylamine provides the corresponding endocyclic enaminodiketones.     

Purines,pyrimidines, and related fused systems. 19. Use of S N H methodology for the synthesis of a new heterocyclic system,pyrrolo[3",2":3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine

Sonogashira cross-coupling of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione with terminal alkynes afforded the corresponding 3-(alkyn-1-yl) derivatives. Oxidative amination of the latter compounds with primary alkylamines was accompanied by heterocyclization to give 6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3",2":3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones.     

Syntheses and properties of 4,6-dimelhyl[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-5,7(4H,6H)dione 1-oxide

Synthesis of 3-(aminooxoethyl)-6-methyl-1-(thiethan-3-yl)-pyrimidine-2,4-(1H,3H)-diones

A new approach to prepare 2-chloroacetamides has been developed, based on the reaction of chloroacetyl chloride with excess of secondary amines. Alkylation of 6-methyl-1-(thiethan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione with the synthesized 2-chloroacetamides in the presence of potassium carbonate has afforded N ³-acetamido-substituted 6-methyl-1-(thiethan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones.     

A one-step preparation of pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine ring system by reaction of 5-formyl-1,3,6-trimethyl-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione with primary amines

6,7-Dihydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones were obtained in high yields from the reaction of 5-formyl-1,3,6-trimethylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione ( 1 ) and primary amines. For this pyridopyrimidine synthesis the following reaction pathway is proposed; the [1,5]-hydrogen shift of 1 gives a 5,6-dihydro-5,6-dimethylenepyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione intermediate. The cycloaddition reaction of the intermediate with aldimines from 1 and the primary amines affords 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones, which are dehydrated to the final products.

Several nucleoside derivatives of pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione 1 and 2,4{1H,3H-pteridinedione 2 were prepared. Treating the appropriate silylated nucleobase with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofura-nose 3 in the presence of trimethylsilyl Inflate gave 4 and 8 which, upon debenzoylation, gave 5 and 9 , respectively. Treatment of 4 with phosphorus pentasulfide afforded the sulfur substituted compound 6 . Again, deprotection gave 7 . The arabinose derivatives were obtained by treating 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-arabinofuranose 10 with the silylated nucleobases to give 11 and 13 . Debenzoylation gave the free arabinonucleosides 12 and 14 respectively. The deoxy derivative 16 was prepared by the reaction of 1 with 1-chloro-3,5-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-D-ribofuranose 15 . Deacetylation of 16 with methanolic ammonia gave the α-anomer 17 .

The synthesis of the congeners of uridine and cytidine in the pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine and pyrrolo[3,2-d]-pyrimidine ring system is described. Glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivative of pyrazolo[4,3-d)pyrimidine-5,7(1H,4H,6H)-dione (4) with either 1-bromo- or 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose 5 and 6 , respectively in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst gave the protected nucleoside 7 , which on debenzoylation afforded the uridine analogue 4-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine-5,7(1H,6H)-dione (8). Thiation of 7 gave 13 , which on deprotection yielded 4-β-D-ribofuranosyl-5-oxopyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine-7(1H,-6H)-thione (14). Ammonolysis of 13 gave a low yield of the cytidine analogue 15. A chlorination of 7 , followed by amination furnished an alternative route to 15. A similar glycosylation of TMS-4 with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-arabinofuranosyl chloride (16) gave mainly the N4 glycosylated product 17 , which on debenzylation furnished 4-β-D-arabinofuranosylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine-5,7(1H,6H)-dione (18). 7-Amino-4-β-D-arabinofuranosylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-5(1H)-one (23) was prepared from 17 via the pyridinium chloride intermediate 21. Condensation of the TMS derivative of pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H,5H)-dione (24) with 6 , followed by deprotection of the reaction product gave 1-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione (26). Similarly, TMS-24 was reacted with 16 to give a mixture of the blocked nucleosides 31 and 32 , which on debenzylation afforded a mixture of two isomeric compounds 34 and 35. 1-β-D-Arabinofuranosylpyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione (34) was converted to the ara-C analogue 38 via the 3-nitrotriazolyl intermediate 36.

Alkylation of 3 with trimethyl or triethyl phosphates 5a,b led to the 5-methyl or 5-ethyl derivatives 6a-d . Chlorination of 6 with sulfuryl chloride afforded the 4-chloro derivatives 7a-d.     

Synthesis of polycyclic pyridazinediones as chemiluminescent compounds

Reactions of 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carbonitrile derivatives 3a-o with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of potassium carbonate in dimethyl sulfoxide gave the corresponding dimethyl 1,3-disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,6-dicarboxylates 4a-o which were allowed to react with excess hydrazine hydrate under ethanol refluxing conditions followed by heating at 250-300° to give 1,3-disubstituted 4-amino-1H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 7a-s in good yields. Similarly, 1,3-disubstituted 4-hydroxy-1H-pyrazolo[4′3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 10a-c were obtained from alkyl 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylates 8a-c . These tricyclic pyridazine derivatives were alternatively synthesized from 4-hydroxypyrrolo[3,4-e]pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,7-diones 13a-c prepared by reactions of 5-aminopyrazoles (8e-g) with methyl 1-methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (11a) followed by the Gould/Jacobs reaction. 1-Methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitrile smoothly reacted with 2-aminobenzimidazoles to give the corresponding 5-amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[3′4′:4,5]pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,3(2H)-diones 16a-e , which were readily converted to the desired 12-aminopyridazino[4′,5′:4,5]pyrimido-[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 17a-e in good yields. Other pyridazinopyrimidine derivatives were also obtained by the reaction of the corresponding 2-aminoheterocycles with the maleimide in good yields. Substituted anilines reacted 11b in refluxing methanol to give the corresponding methyl 4-phenylamino-1-methyl-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates 25a-e which were converted in good yields to 2-methylpyrrolo[3,4-b]quinoline derivatives 26a-e by heating in diphenyl ether. Reaction of 26a-c with hydrazine hydrate gave 10-hydroxypyridazino[4,5-b]quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 27a-e in good yields. The desired 10-aminopyridazino[4,5-b]pyridazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 30a-e were obtained in good yields by the chlorination of 4a-e with phosphorus oxychloride followed by aminolysis with 28% ammonium hydroxide. Some pyridazino[4,5-a][2.2.3]cyclazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 37a,b as luminescent compounds were synthesized via several steps from indolizine derivatives. The key intermediates, dimethyl 6-dimethylamino[2.2.3]cyclazine-1,2-dicarboxylates 34, 36 , were synthesized by the [8 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of the corresponding 7-dimethylaminoindolizines 33, 35 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of Pd-C in refluxing toluene. Some were found to be more efficient than luminol in light production. 4-Amino-3-methylsufonyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-dione (7r) , 10-hydroxypyridazino[4,5-b]-quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 27a-e , and 10-aminopyridazino[4,5-b]quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 30a-e showed the greatest chemiluminescence intensity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide peroxidase in a solution of phosphate buffer at pH 8.0.
