Condensed isoquinolines. 37.* Heterocyclization using 3-(arylamino)- and 3-(hetarylamino)isoquinolin-1(2H)-ones

The reaction of 3-NHR-isoquinolin-1(2H)-ones (R = Ar) with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Me3SiCl or in acetic acid leads to the formation of derivatives of dibenzo[b,f][1, 8]naphthyridin-5(6H)- one and benzo[f]isoquino[3,4-b][1, 8]naphthyridine-5,9(6H,7H)-dione. The reaction for R = Het in the presence of Me3SiCl gives derivatives of 5H-pyrido[1',2':1,2]pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, benzo[f]isoquinoline[3,4-b][1,8]naphthyridine-5,9[6H,7H]-dione, and derivatives of new heterocyclic systems, 5H-pyrazino[1',2':1,2]pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, 5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':1,2]pyrimido- [4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, 5-H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b][1,8]naphthyridin-5-one, and isoquino[3,4-b]- [1,5]naphthyridin-5(6H)-one. The effect of the structure of substituent R and nature of the substituent in the benzaldehydes on the structure of the reaction products was studied.     

An anomalous course of the reduction of 2-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzene diazonium salt: a reinvestigation

The 1H,13C and 15N NMR spectra of the reduction product of 2-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzene diazonium salt with sodium sulfite were measured and analysed. It is shown that the reaction product corresponds to 1-(indazol-3-yl)-1,2-dihydro-benzimidazol-2-on and not 6H-quinoxalino[1,2-c] [1,2,3]benzotriazin-12(13H)-one as published previously. The correctness of the structure was confirmed by an independent synthesis. The observed 15N chemical shifts were compared with the predicted ones using the ACD/NNMR 9.01 program.     

Regioselective nucleophilic addition to carbonyl ylide intermediates: a novel diastereoselective synthesis of cycloalkyl fused furan-3-ones

[structures: see text] A range of cis-fused hexahydro-1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one or tetrahydro-2H-cyclopenta[b]furan-3(3aH)-one ring systems was synthesized by the rhodium(II) acetate catalyzed reaction of alpha-diazo carbonyl compounds in the presence of various oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur nucleophiles. A double-nucleophilic addition was possible by using an excess of alpha-diazo ketone. These reactions proceeded with complete diastereoselectivity, and the stereochemistry was confirmed by the single-crystal X-ray analysis. This process discloses the first example of tandem cyclization-nucleophilic addition reaction.     

A convenient approach to heterocyclic building blocks: synthesis of novel ring systems containing a [5,6]Pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one moiety

Starting from commercially available educts, a straightforward synthetic route to new heterocyclic building blocks is exemplified with the one- or two-step synthesis of tri-, tetra-, or pentacyclic ring systems. Representatives of the following novel ring systems are prepared from 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one and the corresponding o-halo-arenecarbonyl chloride using calcium hydroxide in refluxing 1,4-dioxane: pyrimidino[4',5':5,6]pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one, thieno[3',2':5,6]pyrano[2,3c]pyrazol- 4-(1H)-one, thieno[3',4':5,6]pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one, thieno[3',2':4',5']thieno[2',3':5,6]-pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one, [1,3]dioxolo[5',6'][1]benzothieno[2',3':5,6]pyrano-[2,3-c]- pyrazol-4(1H)-one, pyridazino[4',3':5,6]pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one and pyrazolo-[4',3':5',6']pyrido[3',4':5,6]pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one. While the latter two ring systems are directly obtained due to a spontaneous intramolecular substitution reaction, in the other reactions uncyclised 4-aroylpyrazol-5-ols are produced, which are cyclised into the target heterocycles in a subsequent synthetic step (i.e. treatment with NaH in DMF). Detailed NMR spectroscopic investigations ((1)H-, (13)C-, (15)N-) with the obtained compounds were undertaken to unambiguously prove the new structures.

All carboxanilides were exposed to UV oxidative irradiation in methanolic solution. In the case of 2 and 3 corresponding benzo[d]-furo[3, 2-f] phenanthridin-10 (9H)-one 5 and benzo [d]-thieno[3, 2-f] phenanthridin-10 (9H)-one 6 are isolated.     

Reaction of Dimethyl Sulfoxide with 4-Acyloxycoumarins

Dimethyl sulfoxide converts 4-acetoxycoumarin (1) exclusively to 2-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-[(methylthio)methyl]-2,3-dihydro-4 H-furo[3,2-c]chromen-4-one (3) at 180°C under a nitrogen atmosphere, but in the absence of nitrogen, the products obtained are dicoumarol and its dehydrative cyclization products 7 H-bis[1]benzopyrano[4,3-b: 3′,4′-c]pyran-6,8-dione (9) and (3). Under similar conditions, 4-benzoyloxycoumarin (1a) affords benzoic acid, 4-hydroxy-3-({2-[(methylthio)methyl]-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl}methyl)-2H-chromen-2-one (7), and 3-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H,5H-pyrano[2,3-b] chromen-5-one (8).     

Condensed pyridine bases synthesis of some benzo[b]furo[2,3-c]-, benzo[b]- thieno[2,3-c]-, and benzo[b]selenopheno[2,3-c]-quinolines

Summary Condensation of benzo[b]furan-3(2H-one, benzo[b]thiophen-3(2H)-one and benzo[b]selenophen-3(2H)-one with dimedone gives 2-(3-heteryl)dimedones. Acylation of the latter leads to the corresponding tetracyclic pyrylium salts, from which condensed quinolines are obtained. Some condensed quinoline derivatives are obtained by reaction of 1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroheterene[2,3-c]quinolines with sodium borohydride, hydrazine, and hydroxylamine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 321–326, March, 1994.     

Reactions of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde

The Knoevenagel condensations of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde with seven compounds containing an active methyl or methylene group have been studied. The compounds used were: methyl 2-cyanoacetate, malononitrile, 2-furylacetonitrile, acetophenone, 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one (rhodanine), 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (dimedone), and methyl 2-azidoacetate. The effect of microwave irradiation on the condensation reactions was studied and compared with “’classical”’ conditions. Thermolysis of methyl 2-azido-3-{5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoate afforded methyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate. (2E)-3-{ 5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoic acid was converted to the corresponding azide, which was cyclized on heating into 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one. The latter after successive action of POCl₃ and NH₂NH₂-Pd/C gave 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine.

Condensed isoquinolines 26. Oxidation reactions of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino-[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one derivatives

Oxidation of the hydrobromide of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one with dimethyl sulfoxide leads to 11-hydroxy-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline-6,13-dione, and with hydrogen peroxide to the hydrobromide of 2-[(4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolinyl)carbonyl]benzoic acid. Salts of 5-and 6-alkyl-substituted isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolines are readily oxidized on boiling in nitrobenzene, which leads to aromatization of the isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline system to 5-methyl-13-oxo-5H,13H-isoquino[ 3,2-b]quinazolinium perchlorate and 6-benzyl-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one.

A Facile Entry into Naphthopyran Quinones via an Annelation Reaction of Levoglucosenone. The Total Synthesis of (-)-Hongconin(1)

The annelation reactions of levoglucosenone, prepared by pyrolysis of paper, with 3-cyano-1(3H)-isobenzofuranone and 3-cyano-5-methoxy-1(3H)-isobenzofuranone have been studied. Reductive ring-opening of the annelation products with zinc/copper couple and subsequent chemical transformations provide a facile entry into the naphthopyran quinone ring system. Standard chemical transformations of the annelation product from 3-cyano-5-methoxy-1(3H)-isobenzofuranone and levoglucosenone afforded (1R)-5,9,10-trimethoxy-1-methyl-1H-naphtho[2,3-c]pyran-4(3H)-one. The lithium enolate of this compound undergoes an interesting and potentially useful reaction with oxygen to afford (3R)-4,5,9-trimethoxy-3-methylnaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one. When oxygen is rigorously excluded, methylation of the enolate could be performed in good yield using 10 equiv of methyl iodide in the presence of 10 equiv of DMPU. This chemistry culminated in a total synthesis of (-)-hongconin in six steps from levoglucosenone.
