Detailed Studies of the Alkylation Sides of Pyridin‐2‐yl and 4,6‐Dimethylpyrimidin‐2‐yl‐cyanamides

Pyridin‐2‐yl‐ and 4,6‐dimethylpyrimidin‐2‐yl‐cyanamides entered into an alkylation reaction in the form of sodium salts. Pyridin‐2‐yl cyanamide 2 was alkylated at endo‐nitrogen atom of pyridine ring, while 4,6‐dimethylpyrimidin‐2‐yl cyanamide 1 was effectively alkylated at exo‐nitrogen atom of amino cyanamide group. The alkylation of cyanamides 1 and 2 with phenacylbromide gave the corresponding acetophenone derivatives. As a result of their intramolecular cyclization reactions 3‐(4,6‐dimethylpyrimidin‐2‐yl)‐5‐phenyloxazol‐2(3H )‐imine in the case of cyanamide 1 and 2‐amino‐3‐benzoylimidazo[1,2‐a ]pyridine in the case of cyanamide 2 were formed. The alkylated derivatives of pyridin‐2‐ylcyanamide 2 possess visible blue fluorescence with the main peak at 421 – 427 nm.     

C5‐Alkyl‐1,3,4‐Oxadiazol‐2‐ones Undergo Dealkylation upon Nitrogen Insertion to Form 2H‐1,2,4‐Triazol‐3‐ones: Synthesis of 1,2,4‐Triazol‐3‐one Hybrids with Triazolothiadiazoles and Triazolothiadiazines

Subsequent reactions of 2‐aryl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3(4H )‐one gave triazolo[3,4‐b ][1,3,4]thiadiazoles and triazolo[3,4‐b ][1,3,4]thiadiazines derivatives incorporated with 1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐one.     

Synthesis and conversion of 6‐fluoro derivatives of 1,3,4‐thiadiazolo‐[3,2‐a]pyrimidine

2‐Alkyl‐, 2‐aryl‐, and 2‐halo‐substituted derivatives of 7‐methyl‐6‐fluoro‐1,3,4‐thiadiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐6‐one ( 3 ) were prepared by reaction of 2‐substituted 5‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazoles ( 1 ) and ethyl 2‐fluoroacetoacetate ( 2 ) in polyphosphoric acid. A convenient procedure was developed for the synthesis of new 2‐amino derivatives of 2‐R‐7‐methyl‐6‐fluoro‐1,3,4‐thiadiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐6‐one ( 5 ). J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).

We report new method for preparation of 2‐amino‐5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazoles by reaction of arylaldehyde with thiosemicarbazide and in the next step via cyclization of 2‐aryl hydrazinecarbothioamide in the presence of ZnCl₂.6H₂O or FeCl₃.6H₂O. Also, in this research, new substituted 1,3,4‐thiadiazolo‐[3,2‐α]pyrimidines were synthesized by the reaction of 2‐amino‐5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazoles derivatives with DMAD or DEAD in the presence of K₂CO₃ under reflux conditions.

A challenging synthesis of new 1,3,4‐thiadiazole derivatives starting from 2‐acylamino‐3,3‐dichloroacrylonitriles

Available 2‐acylamino‐3,3‐dichloroacrylonitriles, when treated with hydrazine hydrate, provide 2‐alkyl‐ or 2‐aryl‐5‐hydrazino‐1,3‐oxazole‐4‐carbonitriles that readily add alkyl or aryl isothiocyanates and the adducts formed recyclize on heating. Finally, the synthesis results in 5‐alkyl(aryl)amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl(acylamino)acetonitriles or the products of their further cyclization, 2‐(5‐amino‐1,3‐ oxazol‐2‐yl)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole derivatives.

Azabrendanes. III. Synthesis of stereoisomeric exo‐ and endo‐5‐acylaminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes and their reduction by lithium aluminum hydride

A number of stereoisomeric N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl]‐exo(endo)‐5‐aminomethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐2‐enes have been synthesized from bicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐2‐en‐exo(endo)‐5‐carbonitrile via reduction of the latter by lithium aluminum hydride and subsequent reactions of the resulting amines with aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl chlorides and anhydrides. The direction of reaction of amides with peroxy acids does not depend on orientation of substituents in the bicyclic fragment: that is, for both exo‐ and endo‐isomers the epoxidations are completed by the formation of N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl]‐exo(endo)‐5‐aminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1] heptanes. The reduction of stereoisomeric epoxides by lithium aluminium hydride proceeds in different directions; that is, isomers with an exo‐oriented amido group form the substituted exo‐5‐alkylaminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes and the reactions of epoxides of endo‐amides are accompanied by intramolecular cyclization and completed by the formation of N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)]‐exo‐2‐hydroxy‐4‐azatricyclo[4.2.1.0^3,7]nonanes. The structures and stereochemical homogenity of the products have been confirmed by the analysis of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra, correlation spectroscopy, and nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy experiments. We discuss the behavior of epoxides and provide an analysis of the coefficients of the atomic orbitals in the molecular orbital–linear combination of atomic orbitals equation (AM1 method). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

C‐Selective and Diastereoselective Alkyl Addition to β,γ‐Alkynyl‐α‐imino Esters with Zinc(II)ate Complexes

Since umpolung α‐imino esters contain three electrophilic centers, regioselective alkyl addition with traditional organometallic reagents has been a serious problem in the practical synthesis of versatile chiral α‐amino acid derivatives. An unusual C‐alkyl addition to α‐imino esters using a Grignard reagent (RMgX)‐derived zinc(II)ate was developed. Zinc(II)ate complexes consist of a Lewis acidic [MgX]⁺ moiety, a nucleophilic [R₃Zn]^? moiety, and 2 [MgX₂]. Therefore, the ionically separated [R₃Zn]^? selectively attacks the imino carbon atom ,which is most strongly activated by chelation of [MgX]⁺. In particular, chiral β,γ‐alkynyl‐α‐imino esters can strongly promote highly regio‐ and diastereoselective C‐alkylation because of structural considerations, and the corresponding optically active α‐quaternary amino acid derivatives are obtained within 5 minutes in high to excellent yields.
