Synthesis and Properties of 6-Amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

We have established that when 5-chloro-6-[cyano(2,3-dihydro-1-R-benzo[d]azol-2-yl)methyl]-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles are reacted with nucleophilic reagents (aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydrogen sulfide), annelation of the five-membered ring occurs on the [b] face of the pyrazine with formation of 6-amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles and 6-amino-7-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile respectively. Further heating with excess of acylating reagent leads to formation of a novel heterocyclic system 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrazino[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-e]pyrimidine. Reaction of vicinal dinitriles with hydrazine hydrate leads to the novel system 1H-pyrrolo[2',3':5,6]pyrazino[2,3-d]pyridazine.     

Synthesis and Properties of Substituted Isoxazolo[3',4':4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridines

We synthesized derivatives of a novel heterocyclic system, isoxazolo[3',4':4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine by sequential conversions in three steps: isomerization of 2-(2-R-ethylthio-2-oxo)-3-pyridyl cyanides obtained by alkylation from substituted 3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones by -halomethyl ketones in alkaline medium, to form 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridines; diazotization of the amino group followed by nucleophilic substitution of the diazonium group by an azido group, bypassing the step of isolating the diazonium salts; and thermolysis of the azides formed.     

Condensed Thienopyrimidines. 14. Synthesis of 10H-Thiopyrano[4',3':4',5']thieno[2',3':4,5]pyrimido[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazines

Reaction of a substituted 2-aminothienothiopyran with methyl(phenyl) isothiocyanate, intramolecular cyclization of the obtained N'-methyl(phenyl) thioureido derivatives, and work up of the cyclization products with hydrazine hydrate gave 2-hydrazinodihydrothiopyranothienopyrimidines. Treatment of the latter with pyruvic acid gave the novel 10H-thiopyrano[4',3':4',5']thieno[2',3':4,5]pyrimido[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazines.     

Synthesis and transformations of 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines

Reactions of 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran with 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridines afford a number of substituted 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines. The possibility of the reaction and the yield of the product are determined by the character of a substituent in position 2 of thieno[2,3-b]pyridine. The Curtius rearrangement of 2-acylazido-3(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines yields 4,5-dihydropyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-4-ones. The molecular and crystal structures of ethyl 4-methoxymethyl-6-methyl-3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Synthesis and Diels-Alder reactions of the benzo[4,5]thieno [2,3-c]pyrrole ring system

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new derivatives of pyrano[4',3':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine and new heterocyclic systems

Taking into account previously obtained biological results on some polyheterocyclic compounds (containing different heteroatoms) and in particular on several 8-amino-5-isopropyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines Ia-v we have carried out the synthesis of twentyone 8-amino-5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines 6. Therefore we have slightly modified the structure of the previously studied I introducing at C-5 an isobutyl group instead of the previously examined isopropyl ones in order to see if this variation (changing a little the lipophilicity) will affect the biological activity. Furthermore thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-8-thione 7 and their S-alkylated 8 were synthesized. Finally by alkylation of 5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-thioxo-1,4,10,11-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-8(9H)-one 3 with alkyl dichlorides (bifunctional reagents) we realized the cyclization of a thiazole or thiazine ring on the [b] side of the pyrimidine ring with formation of the new condensed pentaheterocyclic systems: pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-one 11 and pyrano[4''',3''':4'',5'']pyrido[3'',2'':4',5']thieno[3',2':4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-8-one 12. It was found that some of the synthesized compounds showed interesting antimicrobial activity (by agar diffusion method) against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacilli strains.

The compounds 2a-d undergo oxirane ring opening by heterocyclic amines (morpholine, pyrrolidine, piperidine or 4-methylpiperazine) giving N-2-hydroxy-3-heteroaminopropyl-substituted compounds 3a-f or substituted 4,5-dihydrofuro[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]oxazin-8-ones 4a-e.

Refluxing the latter with acyl chlorides in AcOH or heating in formic acid gave hexahydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives and reaction with cyclohexanone gave a spiro-linked octahydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine.

New method for the synthesis of thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidines

The reaction of 5-formyl-4-thiocyanatopyrimidines with nitromethane was studied under various conditions. The reaction was found unexpectedly to proceed with closure of a thiophene ring to give thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines. The use of ammonium acetate as the catalyst leads to a side reaction involving closure of an isothiazole ring to give isothiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidines. X-ray diffraction crystallographic analysis was used to confirm the structure of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1564–1571, October, 2004.

Ein Beitrag zur Chemie des 2,3-Dihydro-3-oxo-benzo[b]thiophen-1,1-dioxids Synthesen mit Nitrilen, 86. Mitt.

Summary 2,3-Dihydro-3-oxo-benzo[b]thiophen-1,1-dioxide (1) reacts as CH-acidic component with amidines of orthoesters and anilines resp. to give the anilinomethylene derivates3, 4, and5. With triethyl orthoformiate the hydroxymethylene-compound7 is obtained. Anilino- and phenylhydrazino derivates8 and9 prove the carbonyl activity of1, azo-coupling leads to10, whereas treatment of1 with sulfur and malononitrile yields the benzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]thiophenes11. Introduction of substituents with active NH-functions in position 2 of the dicyanomethylene-product2, such as azocoupling, reaction with phenyl isocyanate and formation of enamines, leads to ring closure reactions between a nitrile and the NH-group. Thereby the phenyl-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-c]pyridazines12, the phenyl-1H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-c]pyridines13 and the phenylamino-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-c]pyridines14 are obtained.¹³C and¹⁵N-NMR spectroscopy was used as proof of the ring closure reactions.
