Heterocyclization of 1,1-dicyano-2-(trifluoromethyl)ethylenes with 1,3,3-trimethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline and its derivatives

1,3,3-Trimethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines react with 1,1-dicyano-2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)ethylene to give 4-amino-6,6-dimethyl-2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-3-cyano-6,7-dihydro-2H-benzo[a]quinolizines. The reaction of 3,3-dimethyl-1-cyanomethylidene-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline and the methyl ester of 3,3-dicyano-2-(trifluoromethyl)acrylic acid leads to 5,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2-(dicyanomethyl)-2,3,5,6-tetrahydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline.A.

New hexamethylated ferrocene derivatives containing thioether moieties (1,1′-bis[(tert-butyl)thio]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 3a , b )) or fused S-heteropolycyclic substituents (rac-1-[(1,3-benzodithiol- 2-yliden)methyl]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 5 ) and rac-1-[1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 14 )), as well as a series of ferrocene-substituted vinylogous tetrathiafulvalenes (1,1′-bis[1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 6a ), 1,1′-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 6b ), [1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21a ), [1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21b ), [1,2-bis(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21c ), [1-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)-2-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21d )) were prepared and fully characterized. Their redox properties show that some of them are easily oxidized and undergo transformation to paramagnetic salts containing bis(maleonitriledithiolato)-metallate(III) anions [M(mnt)₂]⁻ (M=Ni, Pt; bis[2,3-dimercapto-κS)but-2-enedinitrilato(2⁻)]nickelate (1⁻) or -platinate (1⁻). The derivatives [ 3a ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 26 ), [ 3a ] [Pt(mnt)₂] ( 27 ), [Fe{(η⁵-C₅Me₄S)₂S}] [Ni(Mnt)₂] ( 28 ), [Fe{(η⁵-C₅Me₄S)₂S}] [Pt(mnt)₂] ( 29 ), [ 5 ] [Ni(mnt)₂]⋅ClCH₂CH₂Cl ( 30 ), [ 6a ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 31 ), [ 6a ] [Ni(mnt)₂]⋅ClCH₂CH₂Cl ( 31a ), [ 6a ] [Pt(mnt)₂] [ 32 ), and [ 6b ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 33 ) were prepared and fully characterized, including by SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) susceptibility measurements. X-Ray crystal-structural studies of the neutral ferrocene derivatives 6a , b , 21c , d , and 1,1′-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-oxoethyl]ferrocene ( 23 ), as well as of the charge-transfer salts 26 – 28 , 30 , and 31a , are reported. The salts 28 and 30 display both a D⁺A⁻A⁻D⁺ structural motif, however, with a different relative arrangement of the [{Ni(mnt)₂}₂]²⁻ dimers, thus giving rise to different but strong antiferromagnetic couplings. Salt 26 exhibits isolated ferromagnetically coupled [{Ni(mnt)₂}₂]²⁻ dimers. Salt 27 displays a D⁺A⁻D⁺A⁻ structural motif in all three space dimensions, and a week ferromagnetic ordering at low temperature. Salt 31a , on the contrary, shows segregated stacks of cations and anions. The cations are connected with each other in two dimensions, and the anions are separated by a 1,2-dichloroethane molecule.     

The Mannich reaction in the synthesis of N,S-containing heterocycles 3.

One stage cascade synthesis of new derivatives of pyrido[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>][1,3,5]triazine

The interaction of N-methylmorpholinium 1-amino-2,4-dicyano-4-ethoxycarbonyl-1,3-butadienethiolate with primary amines and formaldehyde leads to the formation of ethyl esters of 7-cyano-6-thioxo-1,3,4,6-2H-pyrido[1,2-a][1,3,5]triazine-9-carboxylic acid in place of the expected derivatives of pyrido[2,1-b][1,3,5]thiadiazine. The structure of the ethyl ester of 7-cyano-3-phenyl-6-thioxo-1,3,4,6-2H-pyrido[1,2-a][1,3,5]triazine-9-carboxylic acid was demonstrated by X-ray structural analysis. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1075–1081, July, 2007.     

Recyclization of Condensed Carbethoxypyrimidines Accompanied by Substitution of a Carbon Atom into the Heterocycle

Condensation in ethanol of ethyl ethoxymethyleneacetoacetate with systems containing an amidine fragment (substituted 3-aminopyrazoles and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) gave 6-carbethoxy-7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. Addition of base to solutions of the obtained bicyclic carbethoxy derivatives in the course of several minutes caused rearrangement to 6-acetyl-7-hydroxypyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 6-acetyl-7-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine respectively. A more prolonged refluxing in 15% aqueous alcohol solution of base caused 6-carbethoxy-7-methyl-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 6-acetyl-7-hydroxy-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine to recyclize to 7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 569–576, April, 2005.

Synthesis and Properties of 7-Acetyl-8-aryl-9-cyano-3-hydroxy-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H,8H-pyrido[2,1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>][1,3]thiazines

7-Acetyl-8-aryl-2-(1-chloro-2-hydroxy-3-propyl)thio-9-cyano-6-methyl-1,4-dihydropyridines were obtained by treatment of 1,4-dihydropyridine-2(3H)-thiones with epichlorohydrin in the presence of sodium bicarbonate. When treated with NaOMe, these compounds are readily intramolecularly alkylated with formation of 7-acetyl-8-aryl-3-hydroxy-9-cyano-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H,8H-pyrido[2,1-b]-[1,3]thiazines. We have studied amination of 2-(1-chloro-2-hydroxy-3-propyl)thio-1,4-dihydropyridines and acylation of 3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H,8H-pyrido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazines. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1394–1399, September, 2005.

A synthesis of novel derivatives of 6-methyluracil, 6-methyl-2-thioxo-, and 2-imino-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one containing a 2-(phenoxy)ethyl substituent at position 5 of the pyrimidine ring has been carried out. It was found that 5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl] derivatives of 6-methyl-2-thioxo- and 2-imino-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one are obtained by the condensation of the corresponding ethyl 3-oxo-2-(2-phenoxyethyl)butanoates with thiourea or guanidine. 6-Methyl-5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl]uracils can be prepared by treating 6-methyl-5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl]-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-ones with an excess of aqueous monochloroacetic acid solution. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1213–1217, August, 2005.     

First synthesis of 2-[alkylamino(diethoxyphosphoryl)methyl]acrylic ethyl esters

The ethyl α-bromomethyl-β-(diethoxyphosphoryl)acrylic acid ester 9 has been prepared by addition of bromine to allylphosphonate 7 then dehydrobromination with DBU in acetonitrile.

Reaction of diketene with cyanothioacetamide: A convenient and regioselective method for the preparation of new 4(1H)-pyridone derivatives

The reaction of diketene with cyanothioacetamide in dry dioxane in the presence of triethylamine gives triethylammonium 3-cyano-6-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyridinethiolate. The regioselective S-alkylation of this thiolate is a convenient method for the preparation of substituted 4(1H)-pyridones and also derivatives of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine and thieno[2,3-b]pyridine. The action of 2-amino-1,1,3-tricyanopropene on this thiolate leads to its transformation into a new heterocyclic system, namely, 5H-pyrido[2′,3′:4,5]thiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine; treatment with iodine yields the oxidation product, namely, the corresponding bis(2-pyridyl) disulfide. The structure of isopropyl (3-cyano-6-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyridinyl)thioacetate was confirmed by X-ray diffraction structural analysis. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 716–725, May, 2007.     

Spiro[(2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine)-3,3-(3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo-2H-1,2-benzothiazine 1,1-dioxide)]-A novel product derived from piroxicam

A possible mechanism is offered to explain this unusual transformation.     

Synthesis and chromatographic enantioresolution of anti-HIV quinolone derivatives

The successful enantioseparation of five 6-desfluoroquinolones with three polysaccharide-based stationary phases (namely, the cellulose-based Chiralpak IB and the two amylose-based Chiralpak AD-H and Lux Amylose-2) is herein described. The investigated species differ for the nature of substituents and/or the position of the stereogenic centre on the quinolone scaffold.The effect on the enantioseparation performance exerted by the different morphology of the cellulose-based and amylose-based polymers, was systematically evaluated for all compounds. In this frame, the impact of alternative alcoholic (ethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, methanol, 2-propanol) and acidic (acetic, methanesulfonic and trifluoroacetic acid) modifiers as well as of a “non-standard” solvent (chloroform), was investigated in normal phase conditions along with the stereo-electronic peculiarities of the selected polymers. While 7-[4-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-2-methyl-1-piperazinyl]-1-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid (1) was enantioresolved with conventional normal-phase conditions by means of the largely employed amylose-based Chiralpak AD-H column, the recruitment of a bulky alcohol (2-ethoxyethanol) succeeded in the enantioresolution of 6-amino-1-methyl-7-[2-methyl-4-(2-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl]-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid (2) and 6-amino-1-[1-(hydroxymethyl)propyl]-4-oxo-7-(4-pyridin-2-ylpiperazin-1-yl)-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (3) with the same column. The use of the amylose-based Lux Amylose-2 column, carrying both an electro-withdrawing (chlorine) and an electro-donating (methyl) group on the carbamate residue, allowed to get 6-amino-1-methyl-4-oxo-7-[3-(2-pyridinyl)-1-pyrrolidinyl]-1,4-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid hydrochloride (4) enanantioresolved, and 6-amino-1-methyl-4-oxo-7-(3-pyridin-2-ylpiperidin-1-yl)-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (5) enantioseparated.

3-Methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,2,4-thiadiazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidine (1) reacted with isoselenocyanates with elimination of acetonitrile and concomitant addition of two molecules of the isoselenocyanate to give 2,3-di-substituted-6,7-dihydro-5H-2aλ⁴-thia-2,3,4a,7a-tetraazacyclopent[cd]indene-1(2H),4(3H)-diselones (6a)–(6j). 3-Methyl-5,10-dihydrobenzo[e]-1,2,4-thiadiazolo[4,5-a][1,3]diazepine (3) likewise reacted with alkyl isoselenocyanates to give the 2,3-dialkyl-5-10-dihydro-2aλ⁴-thia-2,3,4a,10a-tetraazapentaleno[3,3a,4-gh]benzocycloheptene-1,4-diselones (9a)–(9h), but reaction of (3) with aryl isoselenocyanates took place with elimination of acetonitrile and incorporation of one molecule of the aryl isoselenocyanate in the product to give 3-arylimino-5,10-dihydro-1,2,4-thiaselenazolo[4,5-b][2,4]benzodiazepines (10a)–(10h). Structure (10) is a new heterocyclic system. The pyrimidine (1) and the diazepine (3) reacted with aryl isoselenocyanates at room temperature in solvents of low polarity to give zwitterion 1:1 addition compounds (7) and (12), respectively.

Heterocyclization of N-propenyl-substituted phenothiazines and phenoxazines using electrophiles in an anhydrous medium

10-Propenylphenothiazine reacts with a catalytic amount of BF₃·Et₂O in dry ethyl acetate via intramolecular heterocyclization of an intermediate dimeric cation to give mainly 1-ethyl-2-methyl-3-(phenothiazin-10-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrido[3,2,1-k,l]phenothiazine and a minor product through fission of phenothiazine which is 1-ethyl-2-methyl-1H-pyrido[3,2,1-k,l]phenothiazine.
