The triethylamine-catalyzed reaction of 4-substituted ethyl 2-acyl-3-amino-6-methylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine-4-carboxylates IIIa-h with 2,2,6-trimethyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-one IV gave 4-substituted ethyl 3-acetyl-2-hydroxy-7-methylthieno[2,3-b:4,5-b′]dipyridine-9-carboxylates Va-h. Some of the thienodipyridines ( V ) reacted with excess IV to give 5-substituted ethyl 3-acetyl-4,8-dimethyl-2-oxo-2H-pyrano[2,3-b]-pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyridine-10-carboxylates VI .     

Recyclization of Pyrrolediones with Arylaminoindenones. Synthesis of Indeno[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridines

A new route to the synthesis of 4-amino-substituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5-one derivatives

The reaction of 6-(R-amino)-5-acetyl-4-methylsulfonyl-2-phenylpyrimidines with amines was studied. 6-Arylamino derivatives react with alkylamines to form 6-alkylamino-4-arylamino-5-acetyl-2-phenylpyrimidines, which upon refluxing in benzene with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal are converted to 4-alkylamino-8-aryl-2-phenylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5(8H)-ones. The cyclization proceeds selectively with participation of the arylamino group only, the alkylamino group being not involved. At the same time, refluxing of 5-acetyl-4,6-dibenzylamino-2-phenylpyrimidine with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal in toluene affords the product of condensation on the acetyl group, which upon refluxing in o-xylene transforms to 4-benzylamino-8-benzyl-2-phenylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5(8H)-one.

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.

The synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro anticancer activity according to US NCI protocols. The most active 7-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[4,5-b]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid (4-chlorophenyl)amide 2.2 and 7-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[4,5-b]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid (4-chlorophenyl)amide 2.5 were screened for their cytotoxicity effects on C6 Rat glioma cells and U373 Human glioblastoma astrocytoma cells which revealed promising results comparable to temozolamide as reference control according MTT assay data.     

Synthesis of some fused heterocycles based on thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridine and their antimicrobial activity

The reaction of 3-amino-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carbonitrile with ethylenediamine in the presence of a catalytic amount of carbon disulfide afforded 2-(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-4,6-dimethylthieno-[2,3-b]pyridine-3-amine while its reaction with triethyl orthoformate followed by the reaction with hydrazine hydrate gave 4-imino-7,9-dimethylpyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-3(4H)-amine. These two derivatives underwent cyclocondensation reactions with commercially available reactants to afford new heterocycles containing the thieno[2,3-b]pyridine moiety. Some of the synthesized derivatives were tested for antimicrobial and antifungal activity.     

Synthesis of 4-aminothieno[2,3-b] pyridine-5-carboxylie acids

2-Amino-3-cyanothiophenes were reacted with ethyl aminocrotonate in the presence of catalytic amounts of p-toluensulfonic acid. The intermediates 2-[N-(3′-ethoxycarbonyl-2′-propenylamino]-3-cyanothiophenes obtained were cyclized with sodium ethoxide to give the desired ethyl 4-aminothieno[2,3-b] pyridine-5-carboxylate. Hydrolysis of the latter aminoesters afforded 4-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid. The overall yields were about 80%.     

Heterocycles [h]-fused onto 4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid, Part VI [1]. Synthesis and X-ray structure of model indolo[3,2-b]- and [2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylic esters

Cyclocondensation reaction of ethyl 7,8-diamino-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate with 1-methylisatin produced a separable mixture of the corresponding indolo[3,2-b]- and [2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylates, of which the latter isomer predominates. On the other hand, interaction with 1H-isatin or 5-chloroisatin gave the respective indolo[2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylates as the sole regiospecific products. The structures of these new pentacyclic derivatives are based on microanalytical, spectral (IR, MS, and NMR) and X-ray crystal structure data.

These compounds appear to be the first to incorporate the dipyrrolo[3,4-b:3′,4′-e]pyridine ring system.

Reactions of 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carbonitrile derivatives 3a-o with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of potassium carbonate in dimethyl sulfoxide gave the corresponding dimethyl 1,3-disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,6-dicarboxylates 4a-o which were allowed to react with excess hydrazine hydrate under ethanol refluxing conditions followed by heating at 250-300° to give 1,3-disubstituted 4-amino-1H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 7a-s in good yields. Similarly, 1,3-disubstituted 4-hydroxy-1H-pyrazolo[4′3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 10a-c were obtained from alkyl 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylates 8a-c . These tricyclic pyridazine derivatives were alternatively synthesized from 4-hydroxypyrrolo[3,4-e]pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,7-diones 13a-c prepared by reactions of 5-aminopyrazoles (8e-g) with methyl 1-methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (11a) followed by the Gould/Jacobs reaction. 1-Methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitrile smoothly reacted with 2-aminobenzimidazoles to give the corresponding 5-amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[3′4′:4,5]pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,3(2H)-diones 16a-e , which were readily converted to the desired 12-aminopyridazino[4′,5′:4,5]pyrimido-[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 17a-e in good yields. Other pyridazinopyrimidine derivatives were also obtained by the reaction of the corresponding 2-aminoheterocycles with the maleimide in good yields. Substituted anilines reacted 11b in refluxing methanol to give the corresponding methyl 4-phenylamino-1-methyl-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates 25a-e which were converted in good yields to 2-methylpyrrolo[3,4-b]quinoline derivatives 26a-e by heating in diphenyl ether. Reaction of 26a-c with hydrazine hydrate gave 10-hydroxypyridazino[4,5-b]quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 27a-e in good yields. The desired 10-aminopyridazino[4,5-b]pyridazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 30a-e were obtained in good yields by the chlorination of 4a-e with phosphorus oxychloride followed by aminolysis with 28% ammonium hydroxide. Some pyridazino[4,5-a][2.2.3]cyclazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 37a,b as luminescent compounds were synthesized via several steps from indolizine derivatives. The key intermediates, dimethyl 6-dimethylamino[2.2.3]cyclazine-1,2-dicarboxylates 34, 36 , were synthesized by the [8 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of the corresponding 7-dimethylaminoindolizines 33, 35 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of Pd-C in refluxing toluene.
