The use of tributyltin cyanide, trimethylsilyl cyanide and potassium cyanide in the Reissert reaction is contrasted in the furo[3,2-c]pyridine, thieno[3,2-c]pyridine, thieno[2,3-dpyridazine, and thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine ring systems.     

Convenient synthesis and anticancer evaluation of novel pyrazolyl-thiophene,thieno[3,2-b]pyridine,pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine and pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine derivatives

The newly synthesized 3-(3-amino-5-(phenylamino)-4-(phenylcarbamoyl)thiophen-2-yl)-3-oxopropanoate was utilized as a precursor for the synthesis of pyrazolyl-thiophene derivative, which undergoes cyclization upon treatment with benzaldehyde derivatives to provide pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines. Basic treatment of pyrazolyl-thiophene derivative with phenyl isothiocyanate followed by subsequent addition of chloroacetone and/or ethyl bromoacetate yielded the thiazolylidene-pyrazolyl thiophenes. In addition, the building block 3-(3-amino-5-(phenylamino)-4-(phenylcarbamoyl)thiophen-2-yl)-3-oxopropanoate was converted into the corresponding thieno[3,2-b]pyridine compounds through its reactions with (DMF-DMA) and/or heating in sodium ethoxide. Moreover, the reaction of 7-hydroxy-5-oxo-N-phenyl-2-(phenylamino)-4,5-dihydrothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide with 2-arylidenemalononitrile produced the new annulated pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines. The prepared thiophene-based compounds were evaluated against HepG2, PC3, and MCF-7 cancer cells, and normal fibroblast cell (WI38). The pyrazolo[3,4-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine and pyrano[2,3-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine compounds substituted with chlorophenyl group presented promising cytotoxic activities against HepG2 cancer cell line without any human toxicity. Docking study for the synthesized thiophene compounds delivered valuable insights about the binding interactions with the crystal structure of NS5B enzyme with PDB ID (4TLR).

Derivatives of a new heterocyclic system - benz[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrido[3',2';4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyrimidine have been obtained by successive reactions in three stages - alkylation of 3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones with 2-chloromethylbenzylimidazole to give 2-benzimidazolylmethylthio-3-cyanopyridines, closing the thiophene ring in the latter to form 3-amino-2-(benzimidazolyl-2)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines, and cyclization of the pyrimidine ring by acylation with carboxylic acid anhydrides or chlorides.

Studies on the synthesis and interconversion of isomeric triazolotheinopyrimidines. Part II. Effect of 5-substituents on the dimroth rearrangement of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines

The triazolothienopyrimidines obtained by the cyclization of 4-hydrazino-2-phenylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines with triethyl orthoformate or formic acid presumed to be the triazolo[2,3-c] isomers are now assigned the 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidine structure. While these [4,3-c]triazoles resist isomerization under acidic conditions, they undergo isomerization to 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-e]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines under basic conditions.     

On the bromination of thieno[c]-fused 1,5-naphthyridines and their isomeric N-oxides using dibromoisocyanuric acid in fuming sulfuric acid

Thieno[2,3-c]-1,5-naphthyridine ( 3 ), thieno[2,3-c]1,5-naphthyridine 5-oxide ( 7 ), thieno[3,2-c]-1,5-naphthyridine ( 5 ) and thieno[3,2-c]-1,5-naphthyridine 5-oxide ( 9 ) could conveniently be brominated at room temperature using dibromoisocyanuric acid in fuming sulfuric acid.

Thieno[3,2-c]-1,7-naphthyridine ( 4 ) and thieno[3,2-c]-1,8-naphthyridine ( 8 ) were obtained through the coupling of 2-tri-n-butylstannyl-3-thiophenaldehyde with 2,2-dimethyl-N-(4-iodo-3-pyridinyl)propanamide and 3-bromo-2-acetamidopyridine ( 1 ). The yield of 8 was further increased when copper(II) oxide was used as the co-reagent. The ¹³C nmr spectra of the six isomeric thieno[c]-fused 1,7- and 1,6-naphthyridines are discussed.

If C₍₆₎ is blocked, a mixture of products is formed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 706–709, May, 1993.     

Synthesis and transformations of 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines

Reactions of 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran with 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridines afford a number of substituted 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines. The possibility of the reaction and the yield of the product are determined by the character of a substituent in position 2 of thieno[2,3-b]pyridine.
