Structural reassignment of the alleged 6-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)dione

The reaction of 6-amino-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)clione with sodium hydroxide or nitrous acid has been shown to give 5-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid instead of 6-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)dione as reported in the literature. The triazolecarboxylic acid was also obtained from the aminotriazine and hydrochloric acid.     

Synthesis and transformations of derivatives of 2-aryl-5-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1,3-oxazole-4-carboxylic acid

On the basis of methyl esters of 2-aryl-5-hydrazino-1,3-oxazole-4-carboxylic acids the earlier unknown methyl esters of 2-aryl-5-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1,3-oxazole-4-carboxylic acids as well as their functional derivatives were synthesized. The latter were used for further transformations, in particular, for introducing the residues of highly basic aliphatic amines into the 5 position of oxazole, and the oxazol-2-yl moiety into the 4 position of the oxazole ring.     

4-Substituted-3-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones II (1,2). Solvolytic transformations of urea and thiourea derivatives into 1-alkyldihydro-6-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-(1H,3H) diones

A series of 3,4-Dihydro-2-oxo-(3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-yl)ureas (II, Table I) and 3,4-dihydro-2-oxo-(3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-yl)thioureas (Table II) was prepared by treating 3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones with ureas and thioureas, respectively. In the presence of alcoholic alkali these compounds underwent transacylation to dihydro-6-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-(1H,2H)diones (Table III) and their 4-thio analogues (Table IV).     

Synthesis of 6-aryl- and 5-aroylcomanic acids from 5-aroyl-2-carbethoxy-4-pyrones via a deformylative rearrangement and ring-opening/ring-closure sequence

The reaction of 1-aryl-2-(dimethylaminomethylene)butane-1,3-diones with diethyl oxalate in the presence of sodium hydride in THF gave ethyl 5-aroyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-2-carboxylates, from which 4-oxo-6-aryl-4H-pyran-2-carboxylic acids (6-arylcomanic acids) were obtained in high yields via acid-catalyzed deformylative rearrangement. 5-Aroyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-2-carboxylic acids (5-aroylcomanic acids) were prepared via а ring-opening/ring-closure sequence by the reaction of 5-aroyl-2-carbethoxy-4-pyrones with piperidine and subsequent basic hydrolysis and acidification.     

Synthesis of 5-aryl-3-carbazoyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one. Derivatives and their ring transformation into 5-benzamido-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives

Some 5-aryl-3-carbazoyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives 6 and 9 have been synthesized in two ways. The expected thermal ring transformation into 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles did not occur but, by acid hydrolysis of 5-aryl-3-[3-benzylidene-2-methyl(or phenyl)carbazoyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones 6 , a new ring transformation took place and the corresponding 4-benzamido-1-methyl(or phenyl)-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives 11 were formed. The 4-amino-1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione ( 19 ) has been prepared and its structure was confirmed by some reactions.     

Reduction of 4-arylidene-1,3-(2H,4H)isoquinolinediones

Catalytic hydrogenation of some 4-arylidene-1,3-(2H,4H)isoquinolinediones (1) afforded the corresponding 4-arylmethyl-1,3-(2H,4H)isoquinolinediones (2) , but reduction of 1 by sodium borohydride gave 4-arylmethyl-1(2H)isoquinolones (isocarbostyrils, 3). Compounds of type 1 studied had aryl substituents phenyl, 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl, 3,4-methyleneoxyphenyl and 2-furyl. In one example of sodium borohydride reduction of an N-methylisoquinolinedione derivative (1) the heterocylic ring was opened, and 2-(1-hydroxymethyl-2-phenylethenyl)-N-methylbenzamide (4) was obtained from 4-benzylidene-2-methyl-1,3-(2H,4H)isoquinolinedione.     

Reaction of dialkyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates with aliphatic amines

Benzylamine, phenethylamine, and homoveratrylamine reacted with dialkyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates at the endocyclic carbonyl group with conservation of the enolic hydroxy group to give dialkyl 4-alkylamino-2-aryl-6-hydroxy-6-methylcyclohex-3-ene-1,3-dicarboxylates. The reaction of dimethyl 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxo-2-phenylcyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylate with tryptamine was accompanied by dehydration with formation of dimethyl 4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethylamino]-6-methyl-2-phenylcyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,3-dicarboxylate, presumably due to basic properties of the indole nitrogen atom.     

Condensed as-triazines. Synthesis of 7-aryl-8H-[1,4]thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one

Ring closure of 6-amino-3-oxo-as-triazine-5-thione with α-haloketones provides the thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazines which dehydrate via an unusual pathway to give 7-aryl-8H[1,4]thiazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-ones.     

4-Acyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-diones: Synthesis,Oxidation, and Reaction with Amines

Acylation of 2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione and 2-methyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione with acetyl chloride or propionyl chloride afforded the corresponding 4-acyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-diones. Oxidation of 4-acetyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid gave 4-acetyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione 1-oxide. 4-Acyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-diones and 4-acetyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione 1-oxide reacted with pyrrolidine, allylamine, and p-anisidine, resulting in formation of the corresponding 4-aminomethylene derivatives.     

Synthesis of novel 3-(1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-7,8-dihydroquinoline-2,5(1H,6H)-diones

An efficient method for the synthesis of novel 3-(1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-7,8-dihydroquinoline-2,5(1H,6H)-diones from various 2-dimethylaminomethylidenecyclohexane-1,3-diones, (1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetonitriles, and dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal was developed. These transformations proceeded through intermediate 2-[2-(4-aryl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-2-cyanoethenyl]-3-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-olates. They were isolated as piperidinium salts and used in further heterocyclization reactions with aromatic amines, giving novel 1-aryl-3-(1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-7,8-dihydroquinoline-2,5(1H,6H)-diones. These compounds were also obtained by preparative three-step “one pot” synthesis under controlled microwave irradiation. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Conversion of 4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole to 1,3-bis(1H-azol-l-yl)-2-aryl-2-propanols and 1-phenacyl-4-[(benzoyl or 4-toluenesulfonyl)-imino]-(1H-1,2,4-triazolium) Ylides

A series of 1,3-bis(1H-azol-1-yl)-2-aryl-2-propanols 17 were synthesized in an one-pot procedure by reacting l-aryl-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-l-yl)- or l-aryl-2-(1H-imidazol-l-yl)ethanones with dimethylsulfoxonium methide in the presence of either 1,2,4-triazole or imidazole. The aromatic groups in 17 were either 4-bromo-, 4-chloro-, 2,4-dichloro- or 2,4-difluorophenyl. 4-Amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole was acylated with either benzoyl or 4-toluene-sulfonyl chloride to afford [4-(benzoyl or 4-toluenesulfonyl)amino]4H-1,2,4-triazole. Subsequent alkylations with 4-bromo- or 4-chlorophenacyl bromide produced 1-(4-bromo- or 4-chlorophenacyl)-4-[(benzoyl- or 4-toluenesulfonyl)amino]-1H-1,2,4-triazolium bromides. Neutralizations of these salts provided the corresponding ylides.

Reactions of aryl trifluoromethyl ketone imines with 2-sulfanylacetic and 3-sulfanylpropanoic acids afforded 2-aryl-2-trifluoromethyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones and 2-aryl-2-trifluoromethyltetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-ones, respectively. Their subsequent oxidation with hydrogen peroxide gave the corresponding 2-aryl-2-trifluoromethyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one 1-oxides and 2-aryl-2-trifluoromethyltetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one 1-oxides and 1,1-dioxides.

Alkylation of 1-aryl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-ols with ethyl 2-bromopropionate under basic conditions resulted in the formation of 2-[(1-aryl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)oxy]propionic acid, ethyl esters. No N-alkylated products were detected. Similar alkylation of 2-oxo-5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiazole and the corresponding 1,3,4-oxadiazole gave only N-alkylated derivatives. With 4-hydroxy-6-phenylpyrimidine and 2-oxo-4-phenylthiazole, both O- and N-alkylation occurred. Structure assignments were based on ir and ¹³C nmr spectral data.

Reaction of 1b with dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane gave the corresponding bicyclic products, 7-aryl-6-cyano-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones 5a,b and 8-aryl-7-cyano-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimido[2,3-b][1,3]thiazin-6-ones 5c-g . Nucleophilic substitution on 6 with hydrazine led to 7 which on refluxing with formic acid gave 5-aryl-6-cyano-8-methyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b]pyrimidin-7-ones ( 9 ), while with acetic and propionic acids only 2-acylhydrazino-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-arylpyrimidines 8a,b were isolated. The hydrazine 7 undergoes cyclization with acetylacetone and methyl dimethylmercaptoacrylate providing 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-substituted pyrimidines 10 , and 11 . Some of the compounds were screened for antibacterial-, antifungal- and antiviral activities and a few of them showed significant chemotherapeutical activities.

4-Acetyl- and 4-succinyl-3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones undergo the rearrangement into (Z)-2-(3-arylquinoxalin-2-ylidene)acetic acids accompanied by the elimination of the acyl groups. The nitration of 3-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-3,4-dihydro-quinoxalin-2(1H)-one affords 5-nitro- and 7-nitro-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines. The bromination of quinoxalin-2-ones in AcOH gives 3-aryl-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines and the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives, with the former products predominating.

The reactions in boiling acetic acid afforded N-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)benzamide or N-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)pyridine-3-carboxamide.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g .

Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and methyl 3-phenyl-propynoate to afford the corresponding 5-substituted 2-aryl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,2-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones. Treatment of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones with alkalies leads to formation of 3-(benzimidazol-2-ylsulfanyl)-3-arylpropionic acids, their reaction with methyl p-toluenesulfonate yields 1-(3-methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1N-benzimidazol-1-yl)-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-one, and oxidation with hydrogen peroxide gives benzimidazole-2-sulfonic acid and 3-aryl-2-propenoic acids.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 1, 2005, pp. 109–114.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Britsun, Esipenko, Chernega, Lozinskii.
