A convenient synthesis of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3,2-o,p]-[1,3]diazocino[4,5-b]quinoxalines via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction and a ring transformation

The reaction of 6-chloro-2-hydrazinoquinoxaline 4-oxide 5 with triethyl orthoformate gave 7-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline 5-oxide 6. The reaction of compound 6 with phenyl isocyanate afforded 7-chloro-4-phenylamino-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline 7 , while the reaction of compound 6 with phenyl isothiocyanate resulted in deoxygenation to provide 7-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline 8. However, the reaction of compound 6 with allyl isothiocyanate effected the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction, but not deoxygenation, to furnish 9-chloro-4,5-dihydroisoxazolo[2,3-a][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-c]quinoxalin-5-ylmethylisothiocyanate 9. Moreover, the reduction of compound 9 with iron/acetic acid resulted in ring transformation to give 11 -chloro-7-hydroxy-4-thioxo-4,5,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3,2- o,p][1,3]diazocino[4,5-b]quinoxaline 10 , whose acetylation afforded 5-acetyl-11-chloro-7-hydroxy-4-thioxo-4,5,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3,2-o,p][1,3]diazocino[4,5-b]quinoxaline 11.

The reduction of triazolo pyridine 8 using stannous chloride led to the intermediate compound 10 which with acetic anhydride afforded 8-acetylamino-5-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]pyridine 10a . The structure of the derivatives was determined by ¹H-nmr (DMSO-d₆).

The synthesis of pyridazino[4,5-d] pyridazines,pyrazino [2,3-d] pyridazines and a pyrimido [4,5-d] pyridazine

The synthetic chemistry of the relatively unknown pyridazino [4,5-d]pyridazine ring system has been extended. 1,4-Diaminopyridazino [4,5-d]pyridazine (VIII) has been prepared by two routes, the most interesting of these being the one-step conversion of 4,5-dicyanopyridazine into VIII with hydrazine. Upon nitration VIII gave only the mononitramine (X). Attempts to prepare 1,4-dichloropyridazino [4,5-d]pyridazine gave only 4-chloro-2H-pyridazino [4,5-d]pyridazin-1-one (XII). Pyrimido [4,5-d]pyridazine-1,3-dione (XIV) was prepared from pyridazine-4,5-dicarboxamide (IV). The hydrolysis of 5,8-dichloropyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazine (XV) gave 5-chloropyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazin-8-one (XVII) and likewise the ammonolysis of XV gave 5-amino-8-chloropyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazine (XX). As expected the hydrolysis of 5,8-dibromo-pyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazine (XXI) gave 5-bromopyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazin-8-one (XXII). Attempted catalytic dechlorination of 5-chloropyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazin-8-one (XVII) gave 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazino [2,3-d]pyridazin-5-one (XIX).

The reaction of the diesters with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding 8,9‐dihydrobenzo[g]‐pyridazino[4,5‐b]indole‐7,10(11H)‐diones (5) . One of compounds 5 was found to have chemiluminescent activity similar to luminol.     

3-Alkylthio and 3-aminopyrazolo[3,4-D]pyridazines. Ring contraction of pyridazino[4,5-e][1,3,4]thiadiazines via extrusion of sulfur

Reaction of 4-chloro-2-methyl-5-(1-methylhydrazino)-3(2H)-pyridazinone ( 1 ) with carbon disulfide followed by alkylation yielded 2-alkylthio-4H-pyridazino[4,5-e][1,3,4]thiadiazine derivatives 2 . Oxidative cyclization of 5-(4-substituted 1-methylthiosemicarbazido)-3(2H)-pyridazinone derivatives 4 with N-bromosuccinimide also gave 2-substituted amino-4H-pyridazino[4,5-e][1,3,4]thiadiazine derivatives 5 . Heating of 2 and 5 resulted in ring contraction to afford the corresponding pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazine derivatives 6, 7 via sulfur extrusion. A possible mechanism for the desulfurization reaction is discussed, comparing with a structural difference between a type of pyridazino[4,5-e][1,3,4]thiadiazine ( 2,5 ) and another one ( 9,11,13,15 ).     

2-Dicyanomethylidene-3-ethoxymethylidene-2,3-dihydroindole in the synthesis of fused tri- and tetracyclic systems

The reactions of 2-dicyanomethylidene-3-ethoxymethylidene-2,3-dihydroindole with hydrazine hydrate and phenylhydrazine afforded 2,3-diamino-4-cyanopyrido[4,3-b]indole and 3-amino-2-anilino-4-cyanopyrido[4,3-b]indole, respectively, and the reactions of the latter compounds with dimethylformamide diethyl acetal were studied. The reactions of 2,3-diamino-4-cyanopyrido[4,3-b]indole with benzaldehyde, ethyl acetoacetate, and acetylacetone were investigated. First representatives of new heterocyclic systems, viz., [1,2,4]triazolo[1’,5’:1,6]-pyrido[4,3-b]indole and pyrazolo[1’,5’:1,2]pyrido[4,3-b]indole, were synthesized. The structure of ethyl 6-cyano-5-[(E)-(dimethylamino)methylideneamino]-2-methyl-7H-pyrazolo-[1’,5’:1,2]pyrido[4,3-b]indole-1-carboxylate was established by X-ray diffraction.     

Polyazasteroids II.. 1,2,4-Triazolol[3′,4′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin- 11(12H)ones,imidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2′,1′:2,3] pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones

Starting with 2-substituted quinoline-3,4-dicarboxylic acids, a series of substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinone-3-thiones were obtained. The latter compounds were converted to the three novel polyazasteroid series: 1,2,4-Triazolo[3′,4′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]-quinolin-11(12H)ones, imidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5c]quinolin-11(12H)ones and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones. The intermediate 3-hydrazino-1,2-dihydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinones and nitrous acid gave the 3-azido derivatives rather than the tetrazolo compounds.

A series of 1,2,4-triazoles have been prepared by oxidative intramolecular cyclization of heterocyclic hydrazones with copper dichloride. General applicability of this simple transformation was confirmed by the synthesis of moderate to high yields of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]phthalazines, and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines. A 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-e]purine-6,8(7H)-dione was obtained in a lower yield.
