Purines, pyrimidines, and related fused systems. 21. Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione

Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione with primary alkylamines and potassium amide in liquid ammonia gives rise to the corresponding 4-amino derivatives as the major products. The reactions with acyclic secondary amines are accompanied by annelation of the pyrrole moiety to the starting heterosystem to form 1-R-3-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[2",3";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones. The reaction with piperidine as the aminating agent occurs exclusively as aminodehalogenation. The Sonogashira cross-coupling of 4-amino-3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones with terminal alkynes affords 1-R-2-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3",2";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones.

Sonogashira cross-coupling of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione with terminal alkynes afforded the corresponding 3-(alkyn-1-yl) derivatives. Oxidative amination of the latter compounds with primary alkylamines was accompanied by heterocyclization to give 6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3",2":3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones.     

6,8-Dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione: new heterocyclizations based on SN-methodology. Unexpected formation of the first iso-π-electronic analogue of the still unknown dibenzo[a,o]pycene

N₍₂₎-Oxide and 3-amino derivatives of 6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione have been shown to react with primary alkylamines in the presence of an oxidant to produce condensed imidazolines or imidazoles. Both conversions based on S_N^H-strategy represent a new approach to imidazoline-(imidazole-)ring annulation. Heterocyclic analogues of the still unknown dibenzo[a,o]pycene were obtained as a by-products of the above transformations upon using of cyclohexylamine.

Parallel Synthesis of Novel 3-Substituted 1-Ethyl-6-methylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(1H,6H)-dione Analogs

A library of novel 1H-pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7-dione analogs was prepared in a parallel fashion via the cyclization of 6-(1-ethylhydrazinyl)-3-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (4) with α-bromoketones and was then isolated by a two-step purification method with >90% purity. Both the library synthesis and purification method proved suitable for analogs with a high diversity of substitution at the 3-position including various alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl groups.

An improved synthesis of 3-(substituted)pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(1H,6H)-diones, a known subclass of 4-deazatoxoflavins, is reported. The approach involves treatment of 3-methyl-6-(1-methylhydrazinyl)uracil with representative phenyl and alkyl glyoxal monohydrates, which in turn are obtained by selenium dioxide oxidation of the corresponding phenyl and alkyl methyl ketones. The first entry into 4-monosubstituted isomers is also reported.     

The synthesis of pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazines and pyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazines

The Hofmann reaction on 6-methylpyridazine-3,4-dicarboxamide (1) gave a mixture of 3-methylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7-dione (2), 3-methylpyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazine-6,8-dione (3) and an acid (4) of unknown structure. The Hofmann reaction on pyridazine-3,4-dicarboxamide (9) gave a mixture of pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7-dione ( 10 ) and an acid ( 11 ) of unknown structure. The reaction of 3-amino-6-methylpyridazine-4-carboxamide ( 18 ) with ethyl orthoformate gave 3-methylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazin-5-one ( 21 ). 4-Aminopyridazine-3-carboxamide ( 36 ) upon fusion with urea gave pyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazine-6,8-dione ( 37 ) while with ethyl orthoformate 36 gave pyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazin-8-one ( 38 ). Pyrimido[5,4-c]-pyridazine-8-thione ( 39 ) was obtained by the action of phosphorus pentasulfide on 38. 4-Amino-3-cyanopyridazine ( 16 ) when treated with formamide produced 8-aminopyrimido[5,4-c]-pyridazine ( 41 ). The synthesis of 4-aminopyridazine-3-carboxamide ( 36 ) and 4-amino-3-cyanopyridazine ( 16 ), both key intermediates in the synthesis of the novel pyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazine ring system was accomplished by the Reissert reaction of 4-aminopyridazine-2-oxides and subsequent conversion of the nitrile to the amide.     

Purines, pyrimidines, and related fused systems. 20. Heterocyclizations of 6-alkynyl-1,3-dimethyllumazines. Synthesis of pyrrole and thiophene analogs of some natural pteridines

Sonogashira cross-coupling of 6-chloro-1,3-dimethyllumazine with terminal alkynes gave 6-alkynyl derivatives in good yields. Oxidative amination of the latter with primary alkylamines was accompanied by the pyrrole-ring closure to form 1-R"-2-R-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3,2-g]pteridine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones. The addition of bromine to 6-alkynyllumazines afforded the corresponding dibromoalkenes whose treatment with sodium trithiocarbonate gave rise to 2-R-6,8-dimethylthieno[3,2-g]pteridine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones. The latter compounds are close analogs of the metabolite of molybdenum cofactor (molybdopterine).     

Condensed Isoquinolines. 16. Enamine Properties of Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one in Terms of Its Acylation Reactions

A study has shown that the acylation of benzo[4,5]imidazol[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one occurs at N₍₅₎ or at C₍₆₎ depending on the nature of the acylating reagent and the reaction conditions. It was found that principally C-acylation takes place in the absence of base. The reaction with -halo-substituted carboxylic acid chlorides leads to the formation of C-acylated products which are converted to derivatives of the novel heterocyclic system 7H-2a,6b-diazabenzo[b]cyclopenta[l,m]fluorene-1,7(2H)-dione in the presence of base.     

Novel Aspects of the Reaction of 3-(Benzimidazol-2-yl)-2-iminocoumarins with Aromatic Aldehydes

The reaction of 3-(benzimidazol-2-yl)-2-iminocoumarins with aromatic aldehydes has been studied. The condensation products 7-aryl-7H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]benzopyrano[3,2-e]pyrimidines or 3-(benzimidazol-2-yl)coumarins are formed depending on the nature of the substituent in the starting 2-iminocoumarin and aldehyde.

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.

Synthesis and reactions of 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyridine

(E)-3-{5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-yl}propenoic acid (I) was prepared from 5-[3-(tri-fluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde under the Doebner’s conditions. The obtained acid was converted to the corresponding azide II, which was cyclized by heating in diphenyl ether to 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one (III). This compound was aromatized with phosphorus oxychloride to chloroderivative IV which was reduced with H₂NNH₂-Pd/C to the title compound V. 2-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-oxide (VI) was synthesized by reaction of V with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid in dichloromethane. On treatment of VI with benzoyl chloride and potassium cyanide (Reissert-Henze reaction), corresponding 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carbonitrile (VII) resulted. 5-Amino-2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-ium-4-methylbenzene sulfonate (VIII) was prepared by direct N-amination of the title compound V with 1-[(aminooxy)sulfonyl]-4-methylbenzene in dichloromethane. Then, VIII was transformed to a non-isolated zwitterionic N-imid IX which afforded the corresponding furo[3,2-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine carboxylic acid esters X, XI by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with dimethyl but-2-ynedionate (DBD) or ethyl propiolate. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by their IR and NMR spectra.
