Five-Membered 2,3-Dioxo Heterocycles: XLV. Thermolysis of 5-Aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the Absence of Other Partners and in the Presence of Carbonyl Compounds

Aroyl(phenyl)ketenes generated by thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones undergo [4+2]-cyclodimerization to 3-aroyl-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2,4-diones. Heating of the latter leads to rearrangement with formation of 4-aroyloxy-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. Thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the presence of carbonyl compounds yields 6-aryl-5-phenyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-ones.

Some 5-aryl-4,5-dihydro[1]benzoxepin-3(2H)-ones and 5-aryl-5,6,8,9-tetrahydro-7H-benzocyclohepten-7-ones were synthesized by hydrogenolytic cleavage of the isoxazole ring of 4-aryl-3-oxo-3,3a,4,10-tetrahydro[1]-benzoxepino[3,4-c]isoxazoles or 4-aryl-3-oxo-3a,4,9,10-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2-c]isoxazoles which in turn were prepared from ethyl 3-oxo-4-phenoxybutanoate or ethyl 3-oxo-5-phenylpentanoate by simple methods.     

Five-Membered 2,3-Dioxo Heterocycles: XLVII. Reaction of 5-Aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with Compounds Containing C = N and C≡N Bonds

Thermal decarbonylation of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones gives rise to intermediate aroyl(phenyl)ketenes which react with nonactivated Schiff bases, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and p-di-methylaminobenzonitrile according to the [4 + 2]-cycloaddition pattern with formation of 6-aryl-5-phenyl-4H-1,3-oxazin-4-ones. Reactions of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with activated Schiff bases at a temperature below the thermolysis temperature lead to 4-aroyl-4-phenyltetrahydropyrrole-2,3-diones.     

Electrophilic intramolecular cyclization of functional derivatives of unsaturated compounds: VIII. Cyclization of 4-aryl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-(thiophen-3-yl)but-3-enamides by the action of polyphosphoric acid and chlorosulfanylarenes

Intramolecular cyclization of 4-aryl-N-(thiophen-3-yl)but-3-enamides on heating in polyphosphoric acid afforded 8-aryl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5H-thieno[3,2-b]azepin-5-ones and 5-aryl-1-(thiophen-3-yl)pyrrolidin-2-ones. Cyclofunctionalization of the title compounds with (chlorosulfanyl)benzene and 4-(chlorosulfanyl)-toluene led to the formation of 8-aryl-7-arylsulfanyl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5H-thieno[3,2-b]azepin-5-ones or their mixtures with 5-aryl-4-arylsulfanyltetrahydrofuran-2-ones. 1-(Chlorosulfanyl)-4-nitrobenzene reacted with 4-(4-methylphenyl)-N-(thiophen-3-yl)but-3-enamide and 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-N-(thiophen-3-yl)but-3-enamide to give 5-(4-methylphenyl)-4-(4-nitrophenylsulfanyl)-1-(thiophen-3-yl)pyrrolidin-2-one and 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(4-nitrophenylsulfanyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-one, respectively.

Thermolysis of 3-aroylpyrrolo[1,2-d][1,4]benzoxazine-1,2,4(4H)-triones generates aroyl(2-oxo-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)ketenes which react as dienes at the aroylketene fragment in [4 + 2]-cycloaddition at the C=N bond of N,N??-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide with formation of 3-[6-aryl-4-oxo-3-cyclohexyl-2-cyclohexylimino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-oxazin-5-yl]-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-2-ones. Thermolysis of the latter is accompanied by elimination of N,N??-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and aroyl(2-oxo-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)ketenes thus generated undergo cyclodimerization to produce 7-aroyl-6,10-dioxo-9-(2-oxo-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)-6,10-dihydrobenzo[b]pyrido[1,2-d][1,4]oxazin-8-yl benzoates.

Transaminations of enaminones:A Synthesis of tricyclic,N-aryl, 1,2,3-triazole-fused pyridones

1-Phenylmethyl- and 1-(4-methoxyphenylmethyl)-5-chloro-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl chlorides acylated the pyrrolidine enamines of cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone, and the resulting enaminones underwent transaminations with aryl amines under acidic conditions. The products then cyclized under basic conditions to linearly fused, tricyclic 3-phenylmethyl- and 3-(4-methoxyphenylmethyl)-4-aryl-8-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrocyclopenta[6]-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-e]pyridines, and to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4-aryl-3H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b]quinolin-9(4H)-ones. Similar transaminations afforded the related 8-phenyl- and 8-(3-chlorophenyl)-1,5,7,8-tetrahydro-1-(phenylmethyl)-4H-thieno[3,4-e]-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-4-ones. Phase-transfer and catalytic hydrogenolyses of some of these intermediates furnished 4-aryl-8-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-e]pyridines and 4-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b]quinoline-9-(4H)-ones. The 3-(4-methoxyphenylmethyl)-4-aryl intermediates were sterically crowded. Two protons from the methoxyphenylmethylphenylmethylgroups were dramatically shielded because of anisotropic effects exerted by the 4-aryl substituents.     

Fluorine-containing 3-arylhydrazono-2,4-dioxobutanoates in reactions with difunctional nucleophiles

3-Arylhydrazono-4-polyfluoroalkyl-2,4-dioxobutanoates reacted with hydrazines to give ethyl 4-aryldiazeno-3-polyfluoroalkyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylates, while analogous reactions of ethyl 3-arylhydrazono-4-pentafluorophenyl-2,4-dioxobutanoates resulted in the formation of 4-aryldiazeno-3-pentafluorophenyl-1,2-dihydropyridazine-5,6-diones or 6-aryl-7,8,9,10-tetrafluoro-2-phenyl-2,4a,6,10b-tetradropyridazo[4,3-c]cinnoline-3,4-diones, depending on the conditions. Cyclocondensation of ethyl 3-arylhydrazono-4-polyfluoroalkyl(or pentafluorophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoates with ethylenediamine led to 3-[1-arylhydrazono-2-oxo-2-polyfluoroalkyl(or pentafluorophenyl)ethyl]-5,6-dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-ones, and 3-[1-arylhydrazono-2-oxo-2-polyfluoroalkyl(pentafluorophenyl)ethyl]benzoxazin-2-ones were formed in the condensation with o-aminophenol. Pentafluorophenyl-substituted heterocycles were found to undergo intramolecular ring closure to give 3-hetaryl-substituted 1-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-4-ones. The reactions of ethyl 3-arylhydrazono-4-pentafluorophenyl-2,4-dioxobutanoates with o-aminobenzenethiol gave 3-[7-(2-aminophenylsulfanyl)-1-aryl-5,6,8-trifluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnolin-3-yl]benzothiazin-2-ones; 8a-hydroxy-11,12,13,14-tetrafluoro-10-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3,4,5,6,7,8a,10-octahydropyrazino[1′,2′:4,5][1,4]diazepino[6,7-c]cinnolin-8-one was isolated in the condensation of ethyl 3-(4-methoxyphenylhydrazono)-4-pentafluorophenyl-2,4-dioxobutanoate with N-(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine.     

The reactions of aroylpyruvic acids and their derivatives witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol

Aroylpyruvic acids and their methyl esters react witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol to form 4-aryl-2-[2-(1-hydroxydiphenylmethyl)phenylamino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acids and their esters. The α-enamino acids obtained undergo intramolecular heterocyclization in the presence of Ac₂O to affort substituted 4,5-dihydrobenzo[e][1,4]oxazepin-3(1H)-ones. The reaction of 5-arylfuran-2,3-diones witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol leads to products of decyclization, 2-(1-hydroxydiphenylmethyl)phenylamides of 4-aryl-2-hydroxy-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid, which upon heating in AcOH or Ac₂O yield 3-aroylacetyl-1,1-diphenyl-1H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines.

Abstract  

5-[2-[(4-Methylphenyl)amino]ethyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-thione, 5-[2-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]ethyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one, N-(2,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-3-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]propanamide, and a series of N-[(phenylcarbamoyl)amino]-3-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]propanamides and 3-[(4-methylphenyl)(phenylcarbamoyl)amino]-N-[(phenylcarbamoyl)amino]propanamides, and their thio analogues were synthesized from 3-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]propanehydrazide. 1,3,4-Oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione was converted to 4-amino-2,4-dihydro-5-[2-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]ethyl]-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione, whereas cyclization of N′-phenylcarbamoyl derivatives provided thiazole, oxadiazoles, and thiadiazole, as well as triazole derivatives. Two of the synthesized compounds exhibited good antibacterial activity against Rhizobium radiobacter.     

2-Amino-4-aryl-6-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones. Preparation via a one-pot synthesis of 1-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-4-carbethoxy-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines

1-(ω-Carboxyalkyl)-4-carboethoxy-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines were prepared by a one-pot synthesis from β-alanine or γ-aminobutyric acid, ethyl acrylate and diethyl oxalate. In a second one-pot process these products were hydrolyzed, decarboxylated and condensed with aromatic aldehydes under the influence of hydrochloric acid to yield 1-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-4-arylidene-2,3-dioxo-pyrolidines, which yielded 2-amino-4-aryl-6-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)-ones upon treatment with guanidine. It was shown that 3,4-dihydro derivatives of certain 2-amino-4-aryl-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones, formed initially in the guanidine reaction, readily undergo conversion to 5H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-(6H)ones.

Oxidative addition of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-aminophthalimide to styryl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles

The oxidation of N-aminophthalimide with lead tetraacetate in the presence of 5-[(E)-2-arylethenyl]-3-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazoles and 5-(4-methylphenyl)-3-[E)-2-phenyl-ethenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole led to the formation of the corresponding (3-aryl-1-phthalimidoaziridin-2-yl)-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazoles. In the reaction with 3,5-distyryl-1,2,4-oxadiazole a mixture was obtained of two regioisomeric monoadducts and a diadduct in the ratio 80 : 15: 5; at the use of 3 equiv of the aziridinating reagents only diadduct was isolated as a mixture of two diastereoisomers in the ∼3 : 2 ratio that were separated by recrystallization.
