The synthesis of the title compounds 5H,12H-[1]benzoxepino[4,3-b]indol-6-ones 10 was effected by the Fischer indole cyclization of some 2,3-dihydro-4-phenylhydrazono[1]benzoxepin-5-ones 9 , obtained from the 3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxymethylene[1]benzoxepin-5(2H)-ones 7 by the Japp-Klingemann reaction. The structure of these new heterocyclic compounds was supported by ir, ¹H nmr and ms spectral data.     

Photochemical reactions of 6-alkylamino- and 6-alkylanilino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-ones

Photochemical reactions of 6-alkylamino- and 6-alkylanilino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-ones have been investigated. 6-Ethylamino- and 6-isopropylamino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-ones and 6-methylanilino- and 6-ethylanilino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-ones gave 6-amino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-one and 6-anilino-5H-benzo[a]phenothiazin-5-one, respectively, on irradiation.     

Synthesis of 6-substituted 3-cyano-5-nitropyridine-2(1H)-thiones

The reactions of 1-substituted 2-nitro-3-phenylaminoprop-2-en-1-ones with cyanothioacetamide afforded the corresponding 6-substituted 3-cyano-5-nitropyridine-2(1H)-thiones, which were used for the synthesis of 6-substituted 3-cyano-2-methylthio-5-nitropyridines and 7-substituted 4-hydroxy-8-nitropyrido[2",3":4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-2(1H)-ones.     

Reaction of ketenes with N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. X. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 6-alkyl-4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones and of 6-alkyl-4-amino-3-chloro-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted 1-amino-4-methyl-1-penten-3-ones and 1-amino-4,4-dimethyl-1-penten-3-ones occurred in moderate to fair yield only in the case of aromatic N-substitution to give N,N-disubstituted 6-alkyl-4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to afford in good yield N,N-disubstituted 6-alkyl-4-amino-3-chloro-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution, cyclo-addition led directly to 6-alkyl-4-dialkylamino-3-chloro-2H-pyran-2-ones only for N,N-disubstituted 1-amino-4,4-dimethyl-1-penten-3-ones. The reaction between 1-dimethylamino-4-methyl-1-penten-3-one and dichloroketene gave 3-chloro-4-dimethylamino-3,6-dihydro-6-isopropylidene-2H-pyran-2-one in low yield.     

Synthesis of new imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-one derivatives by iodocyclization of 6-alkenyl(alkynyl)-aminopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones

6-Allyl(diallyl, prop-2-yn-1-yl)amino-1-R-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones reacted with iodine to give angularly fused 8-iodomethyl-7,8-dihydro-1-R-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones which were treated with sodium acetate to obtain 8-methylidene-1-R-7,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo-[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones as a result of elimination of hydrogen iodide. 8-Methylidene-1-R-7,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones were converted into 8-methyl-1-R-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo-[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones on heating to the melting point. 8-Methylidene-1-phenyl-7,8-dihydroimidazo-[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-one underwent isomerization into linearly fused 6-methyl-1-phenyl-1,8-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one on heating in sulfuric acid.     

Nitrogen bridgehead compounds. Part 85. Synthesis and reactivity of 3,4-dihydro-1H,6H[1,4]oxazino[3,4-b]quinazolin-6-ones

3,4-Dihydro-1H,6H-[1,4]oxazino[3,4-b]quinazolin-6-one 3 and its 1-methyl and 1-hydroxy derivatives 8 and 13 were prepared by different routes. The active methylene group of compound 3 was reacted with electro-hilic reagents (bromine, phenyldiazonium chloride, nitrous acid, a Vielsmeier-Haack reagent, aromatic aldehydes and diethyl oxalate) to yield 1-substituted-3,4-dihydro[1H,6H)-1,4-oxazino[3,4-b]quinazo-lin-6-ones. The reactivity of 1-hydroxy and 1-bromo derivatives 13 and 15 were also investigated in some reactions. The 3,4-dihydro-lH,6H-[1,4]oxazino[3,4-b]quinazolin-6-ones were characterized by means of uv, ¹H and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy.     

Reaction of ketenes with N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. XII. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl) (2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted (E)-amino-5-methyl-1,4-hexadien-3-ones IV and (E,E)-1-amino-5-phenyl-1,4-pentadien-3-ones V occurred in moderate to good yield only in the case of aromatic N-substitution to give N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl) (2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to afford in good yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-6-(2-methyl-propenyl)(2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution (dimethylamino group) of enaminones IV and V, the Cycloaddition led directly in low yield to 3-chloro-4-dimethylamino-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl)(2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones.     

Umlagerungsreaktionen an 11a-Aminomethyl-hexahydromorphanthridin-6(5H)-onen

Intramolecular transamidation reactions of 11a-aminomethyl-hexahydromorphanthridin-6(5H)-ones The methane sulfonic esters, 7A,B of cis- and trans-11a-hydroxymethyl-hexahydromorphanthridin-6(5H)-one 6A,B rearrange when treated with primary amines forming 2′-amino-3,5-dihydro-2-methylspiro [2-benzazepine-4(4H), 1′-cyclohexane]-1(2H)-ones 9A,B . The structural change involves an intramolecular trans-amidation of the intermediates 8A,B . The original morphanthridine skeleton may be recovered by a second rearrangement, with concurrent reduction, induced by lithium aluminium hydride.     

Photoisomerization of 2H,6H-thiin-3-one 1-oxides to 3H,7H-[1,2]oxathiepin-4-ones

Oxidation of 2H, 6H-thiin-3-ones 1a – c with 3-chloroperbenzoic acid affords the corresponding 1-oxides 2a – c . On irradiation (350 nm) in either benzene or MeCN, these cyclic sulfoxides 2 isomerize to 3H, 7H-1,2-oxathiepin-4-ones 3 . The tetramethyl derivative 3a is isolated by flash chromatography at ?10°, but, at higher temperatures, it undergoes ring contraction and H₂O elimination to give 4,4-dimethyl-2(2-methylprop-2enylidene)thietan-3-one ( 4 ). Diemthyloxathiepinones 3b and 3c undergo ring contraction in MeOH to afford 1-(4-methylthiophen-2-yl)ethanone ( 5 ) and two diastereoisomeric 4,4-dimethyl-2-methoxy-2-(1-methoxyethyl)thietan-3-ones ( 6 and 7 , respectively).     

Eine neue Aminoazirin-Reaktion. Bildung von 3,6-Dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-onen

A New Aminoazirine Reaction. Formation of 3,6-Dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-ones The reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-2H-azirines 1 and 2-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxazol-5(2H)-ones 5 in MeCN or THF at 50–80° leads to 5-(dimethylamino)-3,6-dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-ones 6 (Scheme 3). Reaction mechanisms for the formation of 6 are discussed: either the oxazolones 5 react as CH-acidic heterocycles with 1 (Scheme 4), or the azirines 1 undergo a nucleophilic attack onto the carbonyl group of 5 (Scheme 6). The reaction via intermediate formation of N-(trifluoroacetyl)dipeptide amide 8 (Scheme 5) is excluded.     

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (III) occurred in good yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides, whereas N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-1-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (IV) did not react at all. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to III and IV occurred partly in the case of aromatic N-substitution, with the exception of the morpholino derivative IVd, giving in low yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to the corresponding 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones (VII) in good yield. In some cases of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution of III and IV, cycloaddition led directly to N,N-dialkyl derivatives VII in low yield.     

Hydrogenation of substituted 1-arylisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones to 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro- and 1, 4-dihydroisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones

Catalytic hydrogenation of variously substituted 1-arylisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones 1 gave, depending on the substituents, 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydroisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones ( 2 ) and/or the corresponding 1, 4-dihydro derivatives 3 . Saturation of the compounds fused with benzene ring furnished as the main products the 9, 10-dihydro- ( 4 and 5 ) and 5, 6-dihydroisoquinolin-3(2H)-ones ( 6 ) in the case of benzo[f] and benzo[h] anellation, respectively, in addition to the 1, 4-dihydro compounds detected or isolated as by-products.     

1,3-Dipolar cycle-addition of 2-diazoalkanes to pyridazin-3(2H)-one derivatives. The formation of 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-one and 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7(6H)-one derivatives

1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of diazoalkanes to pyridazin-3(2H)-ones 1–7 and pyridazin-3(2H)-thiones 8 and 9 are regioselective producing 3H -pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-ones 15–19, 27–29 and 34–38 as the major products. In some instances, the isomeric 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7(6H)-ones, such as 20 and 23 were isolated as the minor products. From 3 and 6 the primary 3a,7a-dihydro cycloadducts 25 and 26 , and rearranged 1,2-dihydro intermediate 31 were isolated. From 10 and 1-diazoindane the isomeric exo- and endospiro products 39 and 40 were formed.     

2-Amino-4-aryl-6-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones. Preparation via a one-pot synthesis of 1-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-4-carbethoxy-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines

1-(ω-Carboxyalkyl)-4-carboethoxy-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines were prepared by a one-pot synthesis from β-alanine or γ-aminobutyric acid, ethyl acrylate and diethyl oxalate. In a second one-pot process these products were hydrolyzed, decarboxylated and condensed with aromatic aldehydes under the influence of hydrochloric acid to yield 1-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-4-arylidene-2,3-dioxo-pyrolidines, which yielded 2-amino-4-aryl-6-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)-ones upon treatment with guanidine. It was shown that 3,4-dihydro derivatives of certain 2-amino-4-aryl-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones, formed initially in the guanidine reaction, readily undergo conversion to 5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones.     

Synthèse de 5H-isoquino[6, 7-b][1, 6]naphtyridones-12 substituées sur leur sommet 10

Starting from 4-chloronicotinic and derivatives and 6-amino-5-methyl-2H-isoquinolin-1-one, subsequent cyclization of intermediates by sulfuric acid or trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and chlorination by phosphorus oxychloride gave 10-chloro-6-methyl-5H-isoquino[6,6-b][1,6]naphthyridin-12-ones. Cytotoxicity of the corresponding 10-(diethylamino-3)propylamino-6-methyl-5H-isoquino[6,7-b][1,6]naphthyridinh12-ones, compared to that of related 9-azaellipticine derivatives, showed that replacement of pyrrole by a pyridin-4-one nucleus resulted in loss of biological activity.     

Pyridazines with heteroatom substituents in positions 3 and 5. 6. SN reactions in position 5 of 2-aryl-5-hydroxypyridazin-3(2H)-ones

The nucleophilic introduction of chloro- ( 2 ), azido- ( 4 ), (substituted) amino ( 3, 6 ), mercapto ( 10 ) and hydrazino-groups ( 13 ) into 2-aryl-5-hydroxypyridazin-3(2H)-ones [3] is described. The 5-aminopyridazin-3(2H)-one ( 6 ) also reacts with activated malonates 8 [4] to give pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazines 9 . Hydrazino compounds 13 can be treated with aldehydes to yield compounds 14 . Iodine can be introduced into position 4 of 5 -amino -(15 ) and 5-hydroxypyridazin-3(2H)-ones ( 17 ) by electrophilic substitution to afford compounds 18 .     

Regioselectivity of cyclization of 1-(6-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-4-arylthiosemicarbazides by treating with methyl iodide and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide

1-(6-Methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-4-arylthiosemicarbazides treated with methyl iodide in the presence of sodium acetate in ethanol convert into 6-methyl-3-arylamino[1,2,4]-triazolo[4,3-b][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-ones. In reaction with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide 6-methyl-3-arylamino[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazin-5(1H)-ones were obtained which at heating in alcohol solution in the presence of sodium acetate or at 262–272°C underwent the Dimroth rearrangement to give 3-methyl-7-arylamino[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]-triazin-4(8H)-ones.     

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 3-amino-2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones (I) and 3-amino-1,2-diphenyl-2-propen-1-ones (II) occurred in good to moderate yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to I and II occurred only in the former case, giving in good to moderate yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the reaction of 2-methyl-1-phenyl-3-diphenylamino-2-propen-1-one with dichloroketene, a product was isolated which was proven by uv, ir, nmr and chemical evidence to be the dipolar ion VI, the supposed intermediate of the polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted enaminones.     

The synthesis of 5-substituted 3-benzoylamino-6-(2-substituted amino-1-ethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones and their transformations into 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives

A new approach to the 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine system is described. 5,6-Disubstituted 3-benzoylamino-2H-pyran-2-ones 3a,b , prepared from the corresponding 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds 1a,b and methyl (Z)-2-benzoylamino-3-dimethylaminopropenoate ( 2 ), were converted into 3-benzoylamino-6-(2-dimethylamino-1-ethenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2H-pyran-2-one ( 4a ) and 5-acetyl derivative 4b . The exchange of the dimethylamino group in 4a,b with aromatic amines 5a-f,m , héteroaromatic amines 5g-i , and benzylamines 5j-l produced 5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-benzoylamino-6-(2-arylamino- or heteroarylamino-or benzylamino-1-ethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones 6a-l , and its 5-acetyl analog 6m . The compounds 6 were cyclized in basic media into 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives 7a-h . Analogously react also α-amino acid derivatives 8a-c and 11 as nitrogen nucleophiles producing 9a-c, 10 and 12 .     

5-Cyano-6-aryluracil and 2-thiouracil derivatives as potential chemotherapeutic agents. IV

A series of 5-cyano-6-aryluracils and 2-thiouracils 1a-h has been prepared and alkylated to 1,3-dialkyluracils 2a-d and 2-alkylthiouracils, 3, 4 and 6 , by electrophilic substitution with alkyl halides. Reaction of 1b with dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane gave the corresponding bicyclic products, 7-aryl-6-cyano-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones 5a,b and 8-aryl-7-cyano-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimido[2,3-b][1,3]thiazin-6-ones 5c-g . Nucleophilic substitution on 6 with hydrazine led to 7 which on refluxing with formic acid gave 5-aryl-6-cyano-8-methyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b]pyrimidin-7-ones ( 9 ), while with acetic and propionic acids only 2-acylhydrazino-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-arylpyrimidines 8a,b were isolated. The hydrazine 7 undergoes cyclization with acetylacetone and methyl dimethylmercaptoacrylate providing 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-substituted pyrimidines 10 , and 11 . Some of the compounds were screened for antibacterial-, antifungal- and antiviral activities and a few of them showed significant chemotherapeutical activities.
