Regioselective alkylation of 1H-7-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole and 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole

Alkylation of 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole and 1H-7-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole using different alkylating agents leads regioselectively to 1-N-alkylated products. The hydrolysis-decarboxylation of 1,6-dimethyl-7-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole yields a compound identical with that obtained by the direct methylation of 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole. The 1-N-alkylation is confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

The reactions of the pyrazole-5-diazonium salt 3 with malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate gave 4-amino-3-cyano-8-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 7 and 4-amino-3,8-bisethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c]-[1,2,4]triazine 8 , whose reactions with p-chloroaniline hydrochloride afforded 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonyl-3-(p-chlorophenyl)amidinopyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 9 and 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonyl-3-(p-chlorophenyl)car-bamoylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 10 , respectively. The reactions of 7 and 8 with o-phenylenediamine di-hydrochloride provided 9-ethoxycarbonyl-13H-spiro[benzimidazole-2′(3′H),6(5H)-pyrazolo[1,5′:3,4][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepine] hydrochloride 11a and 9-ethoxycarbonyl-6-oxo-13H-5,6-dihydropyrazolo-[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepine 12 , respectively.

A new method for the synthesis of novel 6-quinoxalinylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

The reaction of the quinoxaline 1 with 4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazole-5-diazonium chloride 7 at room temperature gave 3-[α-(4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazol-5-ylhydrazono)methoxycarbonylmethyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxaline 8. The pmr spectrum of 8 in deuteriodimethylsulfoxide supported the presence of two tautomers 8-I and 8-II. Refluxing of 8 in N,N-dimethylformamide or acetic acid resulted in cyclization to afford 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 9. Compound 9 was also obtained directly by the reaction of 1 with 7 under reflux in better yield. The reaction of 9 with hydrazine hydrate provided the hydrazinium salt 10 , while the reactions of 9 with triethyl and trimethyl orthoformates in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]-7-undecene produced 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11a and 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11b , respectively. The chlorination of 11a with phosphoryl chloride gave 3-(3-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl)-8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxylpyrazolo[5,1-c]-[1,2,4]triazine 12 , whose reaction with morpholine afforded 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-[3-(morpholin-4-yl)-quinoxalin-2-yl]pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 13.

The reactions of the 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonyl[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines 1 and 2 with o-amino-phenol hydrochloride gave the pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 5 and 8 . The alkylation of 5 with methyl iodide and isopropyl iodide afforded the 6-alkoxylpyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino-[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 6a and 6b , respectively. Refluxing of 5, 6a, 6b and 8 in hydrochloric acid/acetic acid resulted in ring transformation to produce the spiro[benzoxazole-2′(3′H),4(1H)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]-triazines] 7a, 7b and 9 . The screening data of the above compounds was described.     

Synthesis of new halo-substituted pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

Ethyl 3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-7-X-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylates (X = H, Cl, Br) were synthesized for the first time by diazotization of 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4oxo-8-ethoxycarbonyl-6H-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines with tert-butyl nitrite in the presence of trimethylsilyl halides. A new method was developed: a reaction between 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-6H-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylic acid and I₂/TEA followed by treatment with NaBH₄ led to a mild decarboxylation. The acid reacts with N-halosuccinimides to give novel 8-halo-substituted derivatives. The amino groups of the latter were acylated by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride to give monoacylation products.

2-Aryl-4-thioxo-1,3-benzothiazines react with thiocarbohydrazide to give the new mesoionic compounds an-hydro 1-amino-5-aryl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-triazolo[3,2-c]quinazolin-4-ium hydroxides. These compounds react with methyl iodide, aldehydes and phenacyl bromides to give 1-amino-5-aryl-2-methylthio-1,3,4-triazolo-[3,2-c]quinazolin-4-ium iodides, 4-arylidenamino-3-(o-aroylamino)phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazolin-5-thiones and 3-(o-aroylamino)phenyl-6-aryl-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazines, respectively. These latter compounds by sequential treatment with methyl trifluoromethanesulphonate and triethylamine lead to 3-(o-aroylamino)-phenyl-6-aryl-1-methyl-7-mercapto-1H-pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazoles.

X-Ray single crystal diffraction analysis indicated that the conjugated 1,2,4-triazine ring adopts a twist-boat configuration, while the two t-Bu substituents are located on the opposite sides of the azole plane. The related 3-tert-butyl-4-(o-C-carboranyl)-8-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine was also synthesized, however, its oxidative aromatization was unsuccessful.

Reduction and diazotization of ethyl 7-amino-3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">tert</Emphasis>-butyl-4-oxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate

The ester group in ethyl 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate was converted for the first time to methyl by the action of lithium tetrahydridoborate in the presence of boron trifluoride–diethyl ether complex. This reaction has almost no analogies among other classes of organic compounds. New difficultly accessible 7-chloro and 7-azido derivatives were synthesized via diazotization of the reduction product, and treatment of the latter with acetic anhydride afforded the exhaustively acetylated derivative. Diazotization of ethyl 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo-[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate, followed by reaction with sodium azide, gave the corresponding azide, and the product of azo coupling with ethyl acetoacetate failed to undergo intramolecular cyclization to tricyclic pyrazolo[3,2-c: 5,1-c′]bis[1,2,4]triazine system.
