1-Substituted 3,3,7,9-tetramethyl-2-azaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien-8-ones and 3,3,7,9-tetramethyl-2-azaspiro[4.5]deca-1,6,9-trien-8-ones were synthesized by three-component condensation of 2,6-dimethylphenol with isobutyraldehyde and nitriles in concentrated sulfuric acid.     

Ritter reaction. Synthesis of 1-substituted 3,3,7,9-tetramethyl-2-azaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien- and -1,6,9-trien-8-ones and 7-methoxy-3,3,6,8-tetramethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines

1-(4-Methoxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-2-methylpropan-1-ol reacted with nitriles [MeSCN, PhCN, MeCN, EtOC(O)CH₂CN] in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid to give both 1-R-3,3,7,9-tetramethyl-2-azaspiro[4,5]deca-6,9-dien- and -1,6,9-trien-8-ones and 1-R-7-methoxy-3,3,6,8-tetramethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines. The reaction with 3,4-dimethoxyphenylacetonitrile afforded 10,11-dimethoxy-1,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,5,6,12b-tetrahydrodibenzo[d,f]indole-2,8-dione. Three-component condensation of 2-methoxy-1,3-dimethylbenzene with isobutyraldehyde and nitriles led to the formation of spirocyclic systems and 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline derivatives in lower yield.

Use of epoxidation and epoxide opening reactions for the synthesis of highly functionalized 1-oxaspiro[4.5]decan-2-ones and related compounds

Epoxidation of ethyl 3-(6-hydroxycyclohex-1-en-1-yl)propanoate (11) provided the syn epoxide 12. By invoking chelation controlled epoxide opening the triol derivatives 13 and 14 or the spiro lactone 25 could be obtained. Elimination of HBr from the bromides 26 and 27 produced the spiro cyclohexenones 28 and 29. Epoxidation of the double bond occurred in a diastereoselective manner to give epoxides 30 and 31, respectively. Treatment of the epoxide 31 with LiBr/AcOH gave the bromo hydrin 38. In a ‘merry go round’ fashion 38 was further functionalized on the cyclohexane ring by elimination, epoxidation, and epoxide opening resulting in the bromo hydrin 43. Other cyclohexane derivatives that were produced during these studies include the cyclohexenone 19 and the cyclohexanediol 23. In addition, enolate azidation of the spiro lactone 29 proceeded in a diastereoselective manner providing the α-azido lactone 32.     

Angular Regioselectivity in the Reactions of 2-Thioxopyrimidin-4-ones and Hydrazonoyl Chlorides: Synthesis of Novel Stereoisomeric Octahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones

The regioselective synthesis of cis and trans stereoisomers of variously functionalized octahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones was performed. The 2-thioxopyrimidin-4-ones used in the synthesis reacted with hydrazonoyl chlorides in a regioselective manner to produce the angular regioisomers [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones rather than the linear isomers [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones. The synthesis process took place with electronic control. The angular regiochemistry of the products was confirmed by X-ray experiments and two-dimensional NMR studies.

Alternate Synthesis Route of 2-(Substituted Phenyl)-3,3a-dihydro-8H-pyrazolo[5,1-a]isoindol-8-ones via Chalcone-Based N-Formyl-pyrazolines

An alternate approach to 2-(substituted phenyl)-3,3a-dihydro-8H-pyrazolo[5,l-a] isoindol-8-ones via chalcone-based N-formyl-pyrazolines is described. N-Formyl-pyrazolines were prepared in excellent yield (81–96%) by the reaction of chalcones with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of formic acid, which undergoes intramolecular Friedel–Crafts acylation in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as a catalyst to afford functionalized 2-(substituted phenyl)-3,3a-dihydro-8H-pyrazolo[5,1-a]isoindol-8-ones in good to excellent yield (74–94%) at reflux in acetonitrile. Our synthetic route avoids expensive reagents and significantly improves yields.

Design,Synthesis, and Antitumor Activity of a Series of Novel 4-(Aromatic Sulfonyl)-1-oxa-4-azaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien-8-ones

Many sulfonamides show anticancer activity. Based on benzenesulfonylazaspirodienone (HL-X9) identified in our previous work, we optimized the lead compound for better efficacy, thereby synthesizing a series of novel 4-(aromatic sulfonyl)-1-oxa-4-azaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien-8-one derivatives through a key step of metal-catalyzed cascade cyclization. The preliminary antiproliferative tests have shown that the anticancer activities of acetyl-protected mannose-linked sulfonylazaspirodienone derivatives (7i–7l) have been greatly improved. Among them, 7j is the most potent derivative, with IC₅₀ values of 0.17 µM, 0.05 µM, and 0.07 µM for A549, MDA-MB-231, and HeLa cell lines, respectively. Flow cytometry analysis shows that 7j arrests MDA-MB-231 cells in the G2/M phase and has a certain effect on the apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells. In addition, the acute toxicity of 7j was lower than that of adriamycin.
