Terminal bis-acetylenes derived from 1,2-bis(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-tetrazol-5-yl)ethane

The N(1)—N(1), N(2)—N(2), and N(1)—N(2) regioisomers of 1,2-bis[(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-tetrazol-5-yl]ethane were first synthesized by alkylation of 1,2-bis(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethane with propargyl bromide. The peculiarities of the crystal structure of 1,2-bis[1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-tetrazol-5-yl]ethane were evaluated by X-ray diffraction analysis. This compound is readily underwent Cu-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition with p-tolyl azide, p-nitrophenyl azide, and benzyl azide to give heterocyclic assembles bearing 1,2,3-triazole and tetrazole cycles. Catalyst-free [3+2] cycloadditions of 1,2-bis[1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-tetrazol-5-yl]ethane and the mixtures of the N(1)—N(1), N(2)—N(2), N(1)—N(2) regioisomers with poly(glycidyl azide) oligomers resulted in 1,2,3-triazole cycles and crosslinking of the polymer chains.

N-Allyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides in reactions with polyphosphoric acid, with N-halosuccinimides in chloroform, and with (chlorosulfanyl)benzenes in nitromethane in the presence of lithium perchlorate underwent cyclization involving the N-allylamide fragment to give 4-[5-methyl(halomethyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl]-1H-pyrazol-5-amines and 2-(5-amino-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-[(arylsulfanyl)methyl]-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazolium perchlorates, respectively. Analogous reactions of N-propargyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides with polyphosphoric acid afforded 4-(5-methyloxazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-5-amines, and with (chlorosulfanyl) benzenes, 2-(5-amino-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-[(arylsulfanyl)methylidene]-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazolium perchlorates.

Aurones, pyrazole and thiophene scaffolds are known for their potential antimicrobial activity. Herein, we have synthesized hybrid compounds containing three substituted (Z)-2-{[1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)- 1H-pyrazol-4-yl]methylene}benzofuran-3(2H)-ones that had been produced from substituted (E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)- 3-[1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]prop-2-en-1-ones in high yields. All synthesized compounds were tested in vitro for their antimicrobial activity. Several of those demonstrated promising activity against some fungal and bacterial strains.

Reactions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-(Polychloroethylidene)arene-and - trifluoromethanesulfonamides with indoles

N-(Polychloroethylidene)arene-and -trifluoromethanesulfonamides reacted with indole and N-substituted indoles to give the corresponding N-[2,2-dichloro(or 2,2,2-trichloro)-1-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-substituted sulfonamides. Unlike N-(2,2,2-trichloroethylidene)trifluoromethanesulfonamide, less electrophilic N-(poly-chloroethylidene)arenesulfonamides failed to react with 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-indole. Previously unknown N,N’-bis(2,2-dichloroethylidene)biphenyl-4,4’-disulfonamide reacted with 1-benzyl-1H-indole at both azomethine fragments. Likewise, reactions of 1,6-bis(1H-indol-1-yl)hexane and 1,4-bis(1H-indol-1-ylmethyl)-benzene with N-sulfonyl trichloroacetaldehyde imines involved both indole rings in the former.

The reaction of ethyl 4-formyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate with the malonic acid led to the formation (2E)-3-(3-ethoxycarbonyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)propenic acid. In reactions of this acid chloride with 4-amino-5-aryl(hetaryl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols were obtained ethyl 4-[(E)-2-{3-aryl(hetaryl)[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-yl}ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazoe-3-carboxylates, with 5-aryltetrazoles, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates, with 1-(2-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl) followed by the Baker-Venkataraman rearrangement and the cyclization, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(6,8-dimethyl-4-oxo-4Hchromen-2-yl)ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate.     

Cyclizations of monocyclic 5-nitropyridin-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Reactions of 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and its N-methyl derivative with hydrazine hydrate led to the formation of (1H-pyrazol-3-yl) acetohydrazide. Under analogous conditions, 1,3-dimethyl-5-nitropyridin2(1H)-one gave rise to 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propionohydrazide, while 6-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one was converted into (5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)acetohydrazide. Hydrazinolysis of 4-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one resulted in the formation of 3-methyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole. The mechanism of recyclization of nitropyridine derivatives by the action of hydrazine hydrate was studied using 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and 1-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one as examples.

The structure of the final and intermediate products was determined by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis.

Cyclocondensation of pent-1-en-4-yn-3-one with phenylhydrazine and p-tolylhydrazine occurs at the positions 1, 3. Proceeding from the 1-aryl-3-ethynyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles formed in the reaction in yields up to 95% we prepared potentially biologically active isoxazole derivatives of pyrazoline.

Thermal Rearrangements of 3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>- and 4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-Pyrazoles Prepared by Reactions of 9-Diazofluoren with Methyl Tetrolate and Methyl 3-Phenylpropiolate

9-Diazofluoren adds in Et₂O at 20°C to methyltetrolate in keeping with Auwers rule and nonregioselectively adds to methyl-3-phenylpropiolate with the formation of spirocyclic 3H-pyrazoles. The methyltetrolate adduct at boiling in toluene converts into methyl 3a-methyl-3aH-dibenzo[e,g]indazole-3-carboxylate, at 190°C in benzene, into methyl 3-methyl-2H-dibenzo[e,g]indazole-2-carboxylate, and at 160°C in methanol, into 3-methyl-2H-dibenzo[e,g]indazole. Auwers adduct of methyl 3-phenylpropiolate at boiling in benzene gives cyclopropene derivative and at boiling in methanol isomerizes into methyl 3a-phenyl-3aHdibenzo[e,g]indazole-3-carboxylate. Anti-Auwers adduct at boiling in benzene isomerizes into methyl 2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-f]phenanthridine-3-carboxylate.
