Preparation of aminotriazole-thione derivatives from n-aryl-n-carboxyethyl-β-alanines

Depending on the substituents in the aryl moiety, the fusion of N-aryl-N-ethoxycarbonyl-β-alanines with thiocarbohydrazide gives di- or monotriazole derivatives, namely, 4-amino-(2-{[2-(4-amino-5-thioxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)ethyl]anilino}ethyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones, 1-[2-(4-amino- 5-thioxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)ethyl]-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones, 4-amino-3-[2-(4-methylanilino))ethyl]-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione and 4-amino-3-[2-(4-ethoxyanilino)-ethyl]-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione. A ditriazolethione derivative was also obtained from the diethyl ester of N-ethoxycarbonyl-N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)- β-alanine.     

Synthesis of phenylacetylene containing 1,2,3-triazole group

Bromination of (E)-1-[4-(2-carboxy-vinyl)phenyl]-[1,2,3]triazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, which was synthesized in 90% yield by a Huisgen-type [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction between 3-(4-azidophenyl) acrylic acid and ethyl propiolate, in CHCl₃ followed by a debrominative decarboxylation reaction with Et₃N in DMF under microwave irradiation condition afforded stereoselective (Z)-1-(4-(2-bromovinyl)phenyl)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester in 94% yield. Treatment of (Z)-1-(4-(2-bromovinyl)phenyl)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester with EtONa in DMF afforded 1-(4-ethynylphenyl)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester in a yield of 90%.     

Chemistry of 6 -pyrido[4,3- ]carbazoles part II: synthetic approaches to 6 -9-methoxy-5, 11-dimethylpyrido[4,3- ] fluorenes

Synthetic approaches to 6 -9-methoxy-5, 11-dimethylpyrido[4,3- ] fluorene are described, thus 2-[1-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]6-methoxyindanone has been reacted with vinylmagnesium bromide to yield 2-[1-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]-6 methoxy-1-vinyl-1-indanol. However, on dehydration this compound rearranges to 2-[1-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]-3-ethylidene-5-methoxyindene rather than the required isomer 3-ethylidine-2-[1-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]-5-methoxyindane needed fro pericyclic ring-closure to the pyrido[4,3- ]fluorene system. Reaction of -2-[1-methyl-1-(4-pyridyl)methylene]-6-methoxyindanone with ethylene triphenylphosphorane similarly gives 6-methoxy-spiro-2-[1-(2,3-dimethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)-cyclopropyl) indanone rather than the desired indane.

C- and O-Alkylation with α-Haloketones of the Adamantane Series

Reactions of 1-adamantyl bromomethyl ketone and 1-(1-adamantyl)-3-bromo-2-propanone with acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate in a mixture of dry diethyl ether with anhydrous methanol in the presence of sodium methoxide afforded 3-(1-adamantylcarbonylmethyl)-2,4-pentanedione, ethyl 2-(1-adamantylcarbonylmethyl)-3-oxobutanoate, 4-acetyl-1-(1-adamantyl)-2,5-hexanedione, and ethyl 2-acetyl-5-(1-adamantyl)-4-oxopentanoate. The Knoevenagel-Cope reactions of 1-adamantyl bromomethyl ketone and 1-(1-adamantyl)-3-bromo-2-propanone with diethyl malonate yielded, respectively, diethyl 1-(1-adamantyl)-2-bromoethylidenemalonate and diethyl 1-(1-adamantylmethyl)-2-bromoethylidenemalonate. O-Alkylation of ethyl acetoacetate with 1-adamantyl bromomethyl ketone gave ethyl 3-(1-adamantylcarbonylmethoxy)-2-butenoate. Carboxylic acids reacted with 1-adamantyl bromomethyl ketone to form the corresponding 2-(1-adamantyl)-2-oxoethyl carboxylates.     

Synthesis of N-arylsulfonyl-2-aryl(hetaryl)aminoacetic acids

Hydrolytic transformations of 4-[2,2,2-trichloro-1-(arylsulfonylamino)-and-(ethoxycarbonylamino)ethyl]phenyloxy(or sulfanyl)acetic acids under microwave irradiation in alkaline medium involve both trichloromethyl group and ester fragment to give N-arylsulfonyl-2-[4-carboxymethyloxy(or sulfanyl)phenyl]-2-aminoacetic acids in good yields. Hydrolysis of methyl 4-[2,2,2-trichloro-1-(arylsulfonylamino)ethyl]phenyloxy(or sulfanyl)acetates without microwave activation occurs only at the ester group with quantitative formation of 4-[2,2,2-trichloro-1-(arylsulfonylamino)ethyl]phenyloxy(or sulfanyl) acetic acids. N-[2,2,2-Trichloro-1-(1-naphthyl, 2-furyl, and 1-methylindol-3-yl)ethyl]-4-chlorobenzenesulfonamides in alkaline medium under microwave irradiation were converted in 10–15 min into the corresponding N-(4-chlorophenylsulfonyl)-2-aryl-2-aminoacetic acids in preparative yields.     

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids and their 6,8-difluoro analogs

Alkylation of 6,7-difluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester with substituted-benzyl chlorides gave 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6,7-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters. Their treatment with piperazine or N-methylpiperazine in pyridine yielded 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters which were hydrolyzed with aqueous sodium hydroxide and then acidified with hydrochloric acid afforded the desired 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-iperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acids. The 6,8-difluoro analogs were prepared similarly using 6,7,8-trifluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as a starting material. Some of these quinolones demonstrated fairly good antibacterial activities. Among them, 6-fluoro-1-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-iperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 7d ) and 6,8-difluoro-1-(3-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-piperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 8c ) are two of the best.

Reactions of adamantyl-substituted keto esters with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine

Reactions of adamantyl-substituted keto and diketo carboxylic acid esters with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine were studied. Ethyl 3-(1-adamantyl)-2-(1-adamantylcarbonyl)-3-oxopropanoate reacted with hydrazine to give ethyl 3,5-di(1-adamantyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate. Reactions of ethyl 2-(1-adamantylcarbonyl)-3-oxobutanoate and ethyl 4-(1-adamantyl)-3-oxo-2-(1-oxoethyl)butanoate with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine followed a complicated pattern and led to the formation of mixtures of the corresponding hydrazides and pyrazolones.     

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.     

Synthesis of pyrazolo[3,4-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxides,new heterocycles

The reaction of substituted ethyl 5-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylates with two equivalents of methanesul-fonyl chloride gave the substituted ethyl 5-[bis(methylsufonyl)amino]-1H.-pyrazole-4-carboxylates II . Removal of one of the methanesulfonyl groups, followed by alkylation of the ethyl 5-[(methylsulfonyl)amino]-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates III with methyl iodide produced the substituted ethyl 5-[methyl(methylsulfonyl)amino]-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates IV . Treatment of IV with sodium hydride gave the 7-substituted 1,7-dihydro-1-methylpyrazolo[3,4-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxides V .     

Synthesis of some new pyrimidine selanyl derivatives

The targeted synthesis of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-(furan-2-yl)-4(3H)-selenoxo -pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile failed due to the formation 1-methyl-2-methylsulfanyl-6-oxo -4-(furan-2-yl)-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile. A new series of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzo thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-yl substituted selanyl derivatives were prepared by the reaction of sodium diselenide with 4-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine followed by the reaction with chloroacetic acid derivatives such as ethyl chloroacetate, chloroacetamide or chloroacetonitrile. Hydrazinolysis of ethyl (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 4-ylselanyl)acetate with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazino derivative. The latter reacted with ethyl acetoacetate, acetylacetone, diethyl malonate, ethoxymethylenemalononitrile or ethyl 2-cyano-3-ethoxyacetate to afford 5-methyl-2-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno [2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazol-3-one, 1-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-2- (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)ethanone, 1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro -1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazolidine-3,5-dione and 5-Amino-1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-1H-pyrazol -4-yl substituted carbonitrile or ethyl carboxylate, respectively. The structure of the novel compounds was confirmed by spectroscopic tools (IR, ¹H NMR ¹³C NMR and mass spectra) and elemental analysis.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a library of 1-(2-thiazolyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole-4-carboxamides

A library of 422 1-(2-thiazolyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole-4-carboxamides was prepared in five steps using solution-phase chemistry. The first step in the synthesis was the reaction of ethyl 2-ethoxymethylene-3-oxo-4,4,4-trifluorobutanoate with thiosemicarbazide, which is reported in the literature to afford a 1:1 mixture of ethyl 1-thiocarbamoyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole-4-carboxylate and ethyl 1-thiocarbamoyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole-4-carboxylate. We reassigned the structure of the product to be a single compound, ethyl 5-hydroxy-1-thiocarbamoyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate. This common intermediate was diversified by reaction with 17 alpha-bromoketones affording, in two steps, 17 1-(2-thiazolyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids. Scavenger resins were used to facilitate formation and purification of up to 27 amides from each of these acids in the last step. In addition, the Curtius reaction was applied to 12 of the acids followed by quenching with alcohols to afford a 108-member carbamate library. Certain compounds in the two libraries were toxic to C. elegans.     

Novel 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium antagonists. II. Synthesis and antihypertensive activity of 3-[4-(substituted amino)phenylalkyl]ester derivatives

Novel 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives bearing 3-[4-(substituted amino)phenylalkyl]ester side chains were prepared and tested for their antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Most compounds showed a more potent antihypertensive effect and a longer duration of action than nicardipine. The derivatives with a benzhydrylpiperazinyl and a benzhydrylpiperidinyl group were distinctive. 2-[4-(4-Benzhydryl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]ethyl methyl 1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate (4e), its 4-(4-cyano-2-pyridyl) analogue (4f), its 3-[4-(4-benzhydryl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]propyl ester analogue (4h), its 2-[4-(4-benzhydryl-1-piperidinyl)phenyl]ethyl ester analogue (4j), and its 2-[4-(1-benzhydryl-4-piperidinyl)phenyl]ethyl ester analogue (4k) were selected as candidates for further pharmacological investigations.     

1β-Methylcarbapenem intermediates via the thiolysis of a Meldrum's precursor

5-{3-[1-(tert-Butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl]-4-oxo-azetidin-2-yl}-2,2,5-trimethyl-[1,3]dioxane-4,6-dione (3) has been submitted to nucleophilic attack with various nucleophiles. Meldrum's moiety transesterification, C4-substitution, β-lactam ring opening and Meldrum's moiety decarboxylation were observed. Reaction of 3 with ethanethiol and dimethylaminopyridine in ethanol quantitatively furnished ethyl 2-{3-[1-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl]-4-oxo-azetidin-2-yl}-thiopropionate as the 1:1 mixture of β (7a) and (8a) diastereoisomers.     

Synthesis of chiral nonracemic 1-(2-pyridinyl)ethylamines: stereospecific introduction of amino function onto the 2-pyridinylmethyl carbon center

Stereospecific substitutions of optically pure 1-(pyridinyl)ethyl methanesulfonates with various amines are described. The reaction of (R)- or (S)-1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl methanesulfonate with primary amines, including amino acid esters, gives N-substituted (S)- or (R)-1-(2-pyridinyl)ethylamines (4) with inversion of the configuration. Secondary cyclic amines are also reacted with (R)-2 to give the corresponding substituted amines (5) in excellent yields. Optically pure and meso triamine ligands having two pyridine rings, (S,S)-4f and meso-4f, (S,S)-9e, (S,R)-9e, and (S,S)-9f, have been prepared in stereochemically pure form by this method. Not only the substitution reaction of optically active 2 but also that of 1-(4-pyridinyl)ethyl and 1-(3-pyridinyl)ethyl methanesulfonates 11 and 14 take place stereospecifcally with inversion of the chiral center.     

Synthesis of 5-[2-(Phenoxy)ethyl] Derivatives of 6-Methyluracil, 6-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one,and 2-Imino-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one

A synthesis of novel derivatives of 6-methyluracil, 6-methyl-2-thioxo-, and 2-imino-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one containing a 2-(phenoxy)ethyl substituent at position 5 of the pyrimidine ring has been carried out. It was found that 5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl] derivatives of 6-methyl-2-thioxo- and 2-imino-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one are obtained by the condensation of the corresponding ethyl 3-oxo-2-(2-phenoxyethyl)butanoates with thiourea or guanidine. 6-Methyl-5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl]uracils can be prepared by treating 6-methyl-5-[2-(phenoxy)ethyl]-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-ones with an excess of aqueous monochloroacetic acid solution. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1213–1217, August, 2005.     

Redox Transformation of Adducts from Cycloaddition of Diazoacetic Ester to β-Arylacryloyloxiranes

It was established that, in addition to ethyl 4-aryl-3-(2,3-epoxyalkanoyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylates, the reaction of diazoacetic ester with β-arylacryloyloxiranes also gives ethyl 4-aryl-3(5)-(3-hydroxy-2-methylalkanoyl)-1H-pyrazole-5(3)-carboxylates. The latter are formed from the tautomeric ethyl 4-aryl-5-(2,3-epoxyalkanoyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates as a result of intramolecular oxidative-reductive disproportionation. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, 1150–1160, August, 2005.
