Convenient one-step synthesis of 4-unsubstituted 2-amino-4H-chromene-2-carbonitriles and 5-unsubstituted 5H-chromeno[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonitriles from quaternary ammonium salts

We have reported DBU catalyzed synthesis of 4-unsubstituted 2-amino-4H-chromene-2-carbonitriles in water under reflux. The attractive features of this process are mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, easy isolation of products and good yields. 5H-chromeno[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonitriles were obtained by refluxing excess of malononitrile and quaternary ammonium salts in ethanol in the presence of NaOH as catalyst. The mechanisms of these reactions are believed to involve the formation of the o-quinone methide intermediate.     

Transformation of substituted 5-amino-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitriles into new 3,4,5-triaminopyrazole derivatives

Reactions of accessible 5-alkylamino- and 5-arylamino-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitriles with hydrazine hydrate on heating involved a complex transformation sequence resulting in the formation of 3,4,5-triaminopyrazole derivatives. The structure of the products was confirmed by their cyclocondensation with acetylacetone, leading to 2-alkyl(aryl)amino-3-acylamino-5,7-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines which were identified by NMR spectroscopy using COSY, NOESY, HMQC, and HMBC techniques.     

Regioselective hydrodehalogenation of 3,5-dihaloisothiazole-4-carbonitriles: synthesis of 3-haloisothiazole-4-carbonitriles

3,5-Dibromoisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 1 treated with Zn or In dust (5 equiv) and HCO₂H undergoes regioselective hydrodebromination to give 3-bromoisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 3 in 70-74% yield. Similarly, 5-bromo and iodo 3-chloroisothiazole-4-carbonitriles 8 and 9 give 3-chloroisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 4 in 77 and 85% yields, respectively. Also hydrodeamination of 5-amino-3-chloroisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 7 using isoamyl nitrite gives the latter in 95% yield. The dibromoisothiazole 1 reacts with Zn dust in either DCO₂D or HCO₂D to give 3-bromo-5-deuterioisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 10 in 71 and 58% yields, respectively. The 3-bromoisothiazole 3 reacts with cyclic dialkylamines to give the corresponding 2-(dialkylaminomethylene)-malononitriles and not the expected 3-dialkylaminoisothiazole-4-carbonitriles. Finally, the 3-bromoisothiazole 3 is readily converted into both 3-bromoisothiazole-4-carboxamide 19 and the carboxylic acid 20. All products are fully characterized.     

Synthesis of 1-vinylpyrrole-2-carbonitriles

A new highly synthetically potent series of bifunctional pyrroles, 1-vinylpyrrole-2-carbonitriles, were synthesized from readily available 1-vinylpyrrole-2-carbaldehyde oximes by two methods: (1) reaction with acetylene (KOH/DMSO, 70 °C, 10 min, yields 58-67%) and (2) reaction with acetic anhydride (90-100 °C, 5 h, yields 83-93%). Starting from 2-phenyl-1-vinylpyrrole, the one-pot synthesis of the corresponding 1-vinyl-2-carbonitrile was accomplished directly by successive treatment with a DMF/(COCl)₂ complex, NH₂OH·HCl/NaOAc, and acetic anhydride (yield 58%).     

Synthesis of 9-Aryl-6-aminopurines from 5-Amino-1-aryl-1H-imidazole-4-carbonitriles

5-Amino-1-aryl-1H-imidazole-4-carbonitriles were converted into 9-aryl-6-aminopurines viaimidates formation at treating with CH(OEt)₃, Ac₂O followed by reaction with ammonia.     

4,5-Unsubstituted 2,3-dihydroisoxazoles in the synthesis of racemic 4-substituted isoxazolidine-5-carbonitriles

The synthesis of novel types of the 4-hydroxy- and 4-bromosubstituted isoxazolidines is described. Dihydroxylation reactions of 4,5-unsubstituted 2,3-dihydroisoxazoles proceed from the less hindered side and provide the major 3,4-trans-isoxazolidine-4,5-diols in good yields. On the other hand, the hydroxybromination reaction of the model 3-phenyl-2,3-dihydroisoxazole predominantly proceeds with 3,4-cis selectivity. Isoxazolidine-5-carbonitriles have been prepared from isoxazolidines possessing a good leaving group at C5 by treatment with TMSCN in the presence of TMSOTf.     

Cyclopentenone Annulation of 2-Oxocycloalkane-1-carbonitriles

Phase-transfer alkylation of the 2-oxocycloalkane-l-carbonitriles 1a and 1b with ethyl 4-bromo-3-methoxy-2-butenoate ( 2 ), followed by deprotection and base-catalyzed cyclization gave the annulated cyclopentenones 5a and 5b , respectively, in high overall yields (Scheme 1). Stereoselective catalytic hydrogenation of 5b followed by de-ethoxycarbonylation afforded 14-oxo-cis-bicyclo[10.3.0]pentadecane-l-carbonitrile ( 7 ). Treatment of 7 with LiN(i-Pr)₂ in THF gave the known synthetic muscone precursor 8 (Scheme 2). The tricyclo[10.4.0.0^1,15]hexadecan-14-one ( 14 ) was prepared from 7 in 5 steps by a reaction sequence proceeding without affecting the chiral centres (Scheme 2). The structure of 14 was established by X-ray structure analysis (Figure).     

Synthesis and some properties of 5-alkylamino-2-(phthalimidoalkyl)-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitriles

5-Alkylamino-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitriles containing a 2-phthalimidoethyl or 3-phthalimidopropyl substituent at position 2 of the oxazole ring were synthesized. In the reaction of 5-(morpholin-4-yl)-2-(2-phthalimidoethy)l-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitrile with hydrazine hydrate, 2-(2-aminoethyl)-5-(morpholin-4-yl)-1,3-oxazole-4-carbonitrile is formed. In the case of the 3-phthalimidopropyl analog, the recyclization product 3-amino-2-(morpholin-4-ylcarbonyl)-6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazole is formed.     

Synthesis of 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles and features of their NMR spectra

Two different methods leading to 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles were investigated. Reactions of 3-aminocrotonirile with substituted salicylaldehydes provided 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles with the same substituent on positions 2 and 4 of the system. The reaction of 3-aminocrotonirile with variety of substituted 3-acetylcoumarins lead to 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles with different substituents on positions 2 and 4. The structures of the products were confirmed by spectroscopic methods. The presence of nitrile moiety in the structures with fixed geometry caused the highly downfield shift of the aromatic proton at position 10 in ¹H NMR spectrum. The electronic factor of the substituents caused variation of this downfield shift.     

Triphenylamino or 9-phenyl carbazolyl-substituted pyrimidine-5-carbonitriles as bipolar emitters and hosts with triplet harvesting abilities

To obtain highly efficient organic semiconductors exhibiting fast emission decays, triplet-harvesting abilities and good bipolar charge-transporting properties for optoelectronic applications, compounds containing triphenylamine or 9-phenylcarbazole as donor moieties and pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile as electron-withdrawing unit were synthesised. Toluene solutions of the compounds demonstrated high photoluminescence quantum yields reaching 98%. As required for electroluminescent device applications, compound containing triphenylamino moiety showed high mobilities of both electrons and holes, which reached 4.4 × 10^?4 cm²/V × s and 7.3 × 10^?3 cm²/V × s, respectively at electric field of 3.6 × 10⁵ V/cm. This triplet-harvesting mechanism was confirmed by the theoretical and experimental studies including a femtosecond transient absorption pump?probe technique and time-resolved electroluminescence spectroscopy. Pure-blue and greenish-blue fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with external quantum efficiency (EQE) reaching 7% and 6%, corresposndingly, were obtained using the newly synthesised compounds as emitters. The operation time (T50) of ca. 650 h were observed for blue OLED and of ca. 3800 h for greenish-blue OLED until reaching the half initial brightness (100 cd/m²). EQE of more than 20% and T50 exceeding 20,000 h were observed for electroluminescent devices based on emitter characterised by triplet?triplet annihilation and thermally activated delayed fluorescence which was utilised to test hosting properties of the differently donor-substituted pyrimidine-5-carbonitriles.
