Thermal reactions of 2-(2-oxo-3-nitro-4-quinolinyl)malonates

Depending on the ester substituent, diethyl 2-(3-nitro-2-oxo-4-quinolinyl)malonates 2 give upon thermolysis ethyl 2-(3-nitro-2-oxo-4-quinolinyl)acetates 4, whereas dimethyl 2-(3-nitro-2-oxo-4-quinolinyl)-malonates 3 cyclize to give 1-methoxycarbonylisoxazolo[3,4-c]quinolin-4(5H)-ones 5. The necessary reaction conditions can be obtained easily with the help of differential scanning calorimetry.     

Reductive acetylation of nitrocarboxylic acids of the thiophene and furan series or their esters

The corresponding 4-acetylamino-2-thiophenecarboxylic acids or their esters were produced by the action of reduced iron on solutions of 4-nitro-2-thiophenecarboxylic acid, its derivatives, or their esters in a mixture of acetic acid and acetic anhydride. Esters of 5-acetylamino-2-thiophenecarboxylic or 5-acetylamino-2-furancarboxylic acids are formed from esters of 5-nitro-2-thiophenecarboxylic or 5-nitro-2-furancarboxylic acids. Free 5-nitro-2-thiophenecarboxylic and 5-nitro-2-furancarboxylic acids are entirely decomposed under the conditions of reductive acetylation by iron. The ester of 5-acetylamino-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid was obtained from the methyl ester of 5-nitro-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid.     

3-Aryl- and 2,3-Diaryl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles. 1. Reactions of Phenyl- and Tosylhydrazones of Dimedone and Cyclohexane-1,3-dione with Substituted Benzaldehydes

Sixteen 3-aryl-4-oxo-2-phenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles were obtained from the reaction of the phenylhydrazones of dimedone and cyclohexane-1,3-dione with 3-bromo-, 4-bromo-, 4-chloro-, 4-fluoro-, 2-hydroxy-, 4-hydroxy-, 4-methoxy-, 2-nitro-, 3-nitro-, 4-nitro-, and 4-dimethylamino-benzaldehydes. The interaction of the tosylhydrazones of dimedone and cyclohexane-1,3-dione with the substituted benzaldehydes gave thirteen 3-aryl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1662–1668, November 2005.     

Azaindole derivatives

3-Bromo-5-nitro-4-(-dimethylaminovinyl) pyridine, the reduction of which with iron filings in acetic acid led to 4-bromo-6-azaindole, was obtained from 3-bromo-4-chloro-5-nitropyridine via (3-bromo-5-nitro-4-pyridyl)malonic ester and 3-bromo-5-nitro-4-methylpyridine.See [1] for communication 55.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 86–88, January, 1979.     

Zur Synthese sulfonierter Derivate von 4-Amino-1,3-dimethylbenzol und 2-Amino-1,3-dimethylbenzol

Syntheses of Sulfonated Derivatives of 4-Amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene and 2-Amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene Direct sulfonation of 4-amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene (1) and sulfonation of 4-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene ( 4 ) to 4-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene-6-sulfonic acid ( 3 ) followed by reduction yield 4-amino-1,3-dimethylbenzene-6-sulfonic acid ( 2 ). The isomeric 5-sulfonic acid ( 5 ) however is prepared solely by baking the acid sulfate salt of 1 . Reaction of sulfur dioxide with the diazonium chloride derived from 2-amino-4-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene ( 7 ) leads to 4-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene-2-sulfonyl chloride ( 8 ), which is successively hydrolyzed to 4-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene-2-sulfonic acid ( 9 ) and reduced to 4-amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene-2-sulfonic acid ( 6 ). Treatment of 4-amino-6-bromo-1,3-dimethylbenzene ( 12 ) and 4-amino-6-chloro-1, 3-dimethylbenzene ( 13 ), the former obtained by reduction of 4-chloro-6-nitro-1,3-dimethyl-benzene ( 10 ) and the latter from 4-chloro-6-nitro-1, 3-dimethylbenzene ( 11 ), with oleum yield 4-amino-6-bromo-1,3-dimethylbenzene-2-sulfonic acid ( 14 ) and 4-amino-6-chloro-1,3-dimethylbenzene-2-sulfonic acid ( 15 ) respectively; subsequent carbon-halogen hydrogenolyses of 14 and 15 lead also to 6 (Scheme 1). Baking the acid sulfate salt of 2-amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene ( 17 ) gives 2-amino-1, 3-dimethylbenzene-5-sulfonic acid ( 16 ), whereas the isomeric 4-sulfonic acid ( 18 ) can be prepared by either of the following three possible pathways: Sulfonation of 2-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene ( 20 ) to 2-nitro-1,3-dimethylbenzene-4-sulfonic acid ( 21 ) followed by reduction or sulfonation of 2-acetylamino-1,3-dimethylbenzene ( 19 ) to 2-acetylamino-1,3-dimethylbenzene-4-sulfonic acid ( 22 ) with subsequent hydrolysis or direct sulfonation of 17 . Further sulfonation of 18 yields 2-amino 1,3-dimethylbenzene-4,6-disulfonic acid ( 23 ), the structure of which is independently confirmed by reduction of unequivocally prepared 2-nitro- 1,:3-dimethylbenzene-4,6-disulfonic acid ( 24 )(Scheme 2).     

Synthesis of 6-amino-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives

This paper reports the synthesis of new pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives as diuretic agents. Starting with 1,2-dihydro-5-nitro-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid 1 , ethyl 2-ethoxy-5-nitro-3-pyridincarboxylate 4 was obtained. Compound 4 reacts with ammonia, methylamine or S-methylpseudothiourea to give the respective 2-amino-5-nitro-3-pyridinecarboxamide derivatives 5 and 6 or 2-methylthio-6-nitro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one 8. Treating carboxamide 5 with arylaldehydes and zinc dichloride, new 2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-6-nitro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones 9 were synthetised. These compounds reduced with iron(II) hydroxide gave 6-amino-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones 10 as expected.     

Synthesis of 5(and 6)-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1h-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinones

The reaction of 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (I) with acetoacetic ester at room temperature under acid catalysis gives ethyl 3-(2-amino-5-nitrophenylamino)crotonate (II), which is readily cyclized to 7-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (III) on heating with alkaline agents. The reaction of I with acetoacetic ester in refluxing xylene gives isomeric 8-nitro-4-methyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (IVa) or 8-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (IVb), which are readily interconverted. The synthesis of IV is complicated by the side formation of 5-nitro-2-methylbenzimidazole (V) and thermal rearrangement of IVa and IVb to 5-nitro-1-isopropenylbenzimidazolone (VI). 6-Nitro-1-isopropenylbenzimidazolone (VII) is similarly obtained on heating III.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 696–699, May, 1972.     

An investigation of the reaction of 2-aminobenzaldehyde derivatives with conjugated nitro-olefins: an easy and efficient synthesis of 3-nitro-1,2-dihydroquinolines and 3-nitroquinolines

2-Aryl-3-nitro-1,2-dihydroquinolines 3 were prepared from the reaction of beta-nitrostyrenes 2 and 2-aminobenzaldehyde 1 in the presence of DABCO. Not only beta-nitrostyrenes but other alkyl nitro olefins also can be used in this reaction as well. When DDQ or silica gel was added to a solution of 3-nitro-1,2-dihydroquinolines 3, 3-nitro-2-substituted-quinolines 4 were obtained. When 2-aminobenzaldehyde derivatives 7 and 12 were reacted with beta-nitrostyrenes 2, unique rearrangement products were produced.     

Notizen zur Synthese sulfonierter Derivate von 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthylamin und 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-2-naphthylamin

Notes on the Synthesis of Sulfonated Derivatives of 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine and 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-2-naphthylamine Sulfonation of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 1 ) with sulfuric acid gave a mixture of 1-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 2 ), 4-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 13 ) and 4-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 3 ). The same reaction with 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthylamine ( 20 ) yielded 3-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 21 ); formation of 2-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 16 ) or of 3-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 24 ) was not observed. Treatment of 4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 4 ) or of its 4-chloro analogue 5 with amidosulfuric acid gave 1-amino-4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 9 ) and its 4-chloro analogue 10 , respectively, which were dehalogenated to 2 . Preparations of 13 and 24 were achieved by sulfonation of 5-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ( 14 ) and 6-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ( 22 ) to 4-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 15 ) and 3-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid ( 23 ), respectively, followed by Béchamp reductions. The sulfonic acid 13 was also obtained by hydrogenolysis of 4-amino-1-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid ( 11 ) or of its 1-chloro analogue 12 ; compounds 11 and 12 were synthesized from N-(4-bromo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl)acetamide ( 7 ) and from its 4-chloro analogue 8 , respectively, by sulfonation with oleum and subsequent hydrolysis. By ‘baking’ the hydrogensulfate salt of 1 or 20 compounds 3 and 21 were obtained, respectively. Synthesis of 16 was achieved by sulfur dioxide treatment of the diazonium chloride derived from 2-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine ( 17 ) giving 2-nitro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride ( 18 ), followed by hydrolysis of 18 to the corresponding sulfonic acid 19 and final reduction.     

Separation and determination of nitrobenzenes by micellar electrokinetic chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography

A micellar electrokinetic chromatographic method and a high-performance liquid chromatographic method are proposed for the separation and determination of a mixture of 12 nitrobenzenes and their reduction products, namely 4-nitro-1,2-phenylenediamine, 4-nitro-1,3-phenylenediamine, 2-nitro-1,4-phenylenediamine, 2-nitroaniline, 3-nitroaniline, 4-nitroaniline, 4-amino-2-nitrophenol, 2-amino-5-nitrophenol, 2-amino-4-nitrophenol, 2-nitrophenol, 3-nitrophenol, and 4-nitrophenol. A solution of 50 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate and 10% ethanol in 23 mM sodium borate buffer was used as the electrophoretic medium. Good resolution could be obtained by the addition of tetrahydrofuran to the liquid chromatographic mobile phase. The retention and migration behavior of the nitrobenzenes are discussed.     

Condensed imidazo-1,2,4-azines. 4. Synthesis of 1,4-Dihydroimidazo[1,5-c]-1,2,4-triazine derivatives

The reaction of 2-methyl-4(5)-nitro- and 2-methyl-4(5)-nitro-5(4)-bromoimidazoles with -halo ketones was investigated, during which a number of 1-acylmethyl-substituted 2-methyl-4-nitro- and 2-methyl-4-nitro-5-bromoimidazoles were obtained. 1,4-Dihydro derivatives of imidazo[1,5-c]-1,2,4-triazine were synthesized by reaction of the latter with hydrazine and its monosubstituted derivatives. The structures of the 1-acylmethyl-substituted 2-methyl-4-nitro-5-bromoimidazoles and 1,4-dihydro derivatives of imidazo[1,5-c]-1,2,4-triazine were confirmed by their IR, PMR, and mass spectra.See [1–3] for Communications 1–3, respectively.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 833–837, June, 1981.     

N-Alkylation of 4-nitro-1,2,3-triazole revisited. Detection and characterization of the N3-ethylation product, 1-ethyl-5-nitro-1,2,3-triazole

The products of the alkylation of sodium 4-nitro-1,2,3-triazolate with ethyl bromide were investigated using ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy. It was found that alkylation proceeds on the triazole nitrogen atoms giving a mixture of three isomeric N-ethyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles. The molar ratio of N1, N2, and N3-alkylation products was 4:8:1. The formation of a minor N3-isomer, namely 1-ethyl-5-nitro-1,2,3-triazole was confirmed by X-ray structural analysis of single crystals of its tetranuclear copper(II) complex obtained by reaction of copper(II) chloride dihydrate with a mixture of the N2 and N3-isomers.     

Synthesis of new bicyclic compounds containing fused sulfolane and pyrazolidine rings

3-Aryl-6а-methyl-6-nitro-1-carbamoylhexahydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrazole-4,4-dioxides, novel original bicyclic species consisting of fused pyrazolidine and sulfolane rings, and 1,4-adducts were obtained by reacting 2-benzylidene-3-methyl-4-nitro-3-thiolene-1,1-dioxide and its derivatives with semicarbazide.     

Synthesis of 3-nitro-4-amino- and 3,4-diaminothiocoumarins

Nitration of 4-hydroxythiocoumarin gave 3-nitro-4-hydroxythiocoumarin, which was converted to 3-nitro-4-chlorothiocoumarin by the action of phosphorus oxychloride in dimethylformamide. The corresponding 3-nitro-4-aminothiocoumarins were synthesized by reaction of 3-nitro-4-chlorothiocoumarin with ammonia or amines. The 3-nitro-4-aminothiocoumarins were hydrogenated in alcohol over Raney nickel to give 3,4-diaminothiocoumarins. The-aminovinylcarbonyl form of the 4-substituted 3-aminothiocoumarins was established on the basis of the UV, IR, and PMR spectra.See [1] for our preliminary communication.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 43–47, January, 1978.     

N-[3-nitro(amino)coumarin-4-yl]anthranilic acid amides. Synthesis of 6,7,8,13-tetrahydro[1]benzopyrano[4,3-b][1,4] benzodiazepine-6,8-dione

The reaction of 3-nitro-4-chlorocoumarin with anthranilic acid was used to synthesize N-(3-nitro-4-coumarinyl)-anthranilic acid, from which, through the acid chloride, we obtained a number of amides, which were reduced to N-(3-amino-4-coumarinyl)anthranilic acid amides The latter are cyclized under the influence of hydrochloric acid to 6,7,8,13-tetrahydro[1]benzopyrano-[4,3-b][1, 4]benzodiazepine-6,8-dione, which was also obtained from N-(3-amino-4-coumarinyl)anthranilic acid by its thermolysis or treatment with hydrochloric acid.See [1] for our preliminary communication.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1208–1212, September, 1989.     

Studies on furan derivatives. V. A novel ethoxycarbonylmethylation of the 5-nitro-2-furan ring in the reaction of α-(2-furyl)-β-(5-nitro-2-furyl)ethynyl with N-ethoxycarbonylmethylpyridinium ylide

An unexpected product, 1-(4-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-5-nitro-2-furyl)-2-(2-furyl)-3-ethoxycarbonyl-indolizine was obtained by the reaction of α-(2-furyl)-β-(5-nitro-2-furyl)ethynyl with N-ethoxy-carbonylmethylpyridinium ylide in N,N-dimethylformamide, together with 1-(5-nitro-2-furyl)-2-(2-furyl)-3-ethoxycarbonylindolizine.     

Properties of 4-nitro-3-hydroxyquinoline

It was found that the nitro group in 4-nitro-3-hydroxyquinoline readily undergoes exchange in acidic media; the corresponding 4-halo-, 4-mercapto, 4-phenylsulfonyl, and p-tolylthio derivatives of 3-hydroxyquinoline were obtained.     

Benzindoles. 21. Nitration of 3-formyl[4, 5]-and 3-formyl [6,7] benzindoles

It was established that products of monosubstitution of 4-nitro- and 7-nitro-3-formyl[4,5] benzindoles and products of disubstitution of 4,8-dinitro- and 7,8-dinitro-3-formyl [4,5] benzindoles are formed in low yields in the nitration of 3-formyl [4,5]benzindole with sodium nitrate in concentrated sulfuric acid. Similar nitration of 3-formyl [6,7] benzindole leads to 9-nitro- and 5, 6-dinitro-3-formyl [6,7]benzindoles. The 3-formylnitrobenzindoles obtained were converted to nitrovinyl derivatives by condensation with nitromethane.See [1] for Communication [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 949–955, July, 1980.     

Radical-anions in the vicarious C-amination reactions of N-substituted nitrotriazoles

The vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in symmetrical and vicinal nitrotriazoles by 1,1,1-trimethylhydrazinium iodide in t-BuOK/DMSO was studied by ESR. In the ESR monitoring of the reactions the primary radical-anions of 4-nitro-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole and 1-methyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole were detected and characterized. It was shown by NMR that the amination of 4-nitro-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole takes place exclusively in the triazole ring with the formation of 5-amino-4-nitro-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole. 1-Methyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole, like 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole, does not form amination products. A possible mechanism for the vicarious C-amination of nitrotriazoles and the formation of the radical-anions of the substrates is discussed. Dedicated to Academician M. G. Voronkov on his 85th birthday. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1662–1670, November, 2006.     

Nitropyrazoles

A method of synthesizing nitro derivatives of lH,4H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazole is developed, and some of its transformations are studied. 3-Methyl-6-nitro-, 3-carboxy(methoxy-carbonyl, carbamoyl)-6-nitro-, 3-amino-6-nitro-, 3-nitro-, 3,6-dinitro-, 1,4-diacetonyl-3,6-dinitro-, and lH,4H-3-aminopyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazoles were obtained from 1H,4H-3 -methylpyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazole. Unsubstituted 1H,4H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazole, the first member of this series, was obtained for the first time. The compounds prepared were characterized by¹H,¹³C,¹⁴N, and¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy.
