Nitration of 2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one gave its 5-nitro derivative which was subjected to alkylation with dimethyl sulfate, diethyl sulfate, and benzyl(dimethyl)phenylammonium chloride. The resulting 1,3-dimethyl-, 1,3-diethyl-, and 1,3-dibenzyl-5-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones were reduced to the corresponding 1,3-dialkyl-5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, and the latter reacted with itaconic acid to produce 1-(1,3-dialkyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-yl)-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acids. 1-(2-Oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-yl)-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid was obtained by analogous reaction with 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]-pyridin-2-one.

Reaction of 4-aryl-2,6-diamino-4H-thiopyran-3,5-dicarbonitriles with 1-morpholino-1-cyclopentene led to the formation of 4-aryl-2-thioxo-2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-[1]pyrindine-3-carbonitriles used in the synthesis of substituted 2-alkylsulfanyl-4-aryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-[1]pyrindine-3-carbonitriles and 3-amino-4-aryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopenta[bthieno[3,2-e]pyridines.     

Sc(OTf)<Subscript>3</Subscript> catalyzed synthesis of novel 6-phenyl-6<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-chromeno[4,3-b]quinolines and evaluation of their cytotoxicity

Novel 6-phenyl-6H-chromeno[4,3-b]quinoline derivatives have been prepared by reaction of 4-chloro-2-phenyl-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde with various aromatic amines using 5 mol % of Sc(OTf)3 in acetonitile. This is the first example of one-pot synthesis of 6-phenyl-6H-chromeno[4,3-b]quinoline from 4-chloro-2-phenyl-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde at ambient temperature. Preliminary evaluation of cytotoxic activity of these chromeno[4,3-b]quinoline derivatives has been carried out. Some products exhibited anti cancer activity against two carcinoma cell lines A549 and B-16.     

Regioselectivity in the reactions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-(polychloroethylidene)-sulfonamides with 1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrrole and 1-methyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrrole

N-(2,2,2-Trichloroethylidene)arenesulfonamides react with 1H-pyrrole and 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole to give the corresponding N-[2,2,2-trichloro-1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)ethyl]arenesulfonamides. The reaction of N-(2,2,2-trichloroethylidene)trifluoromethanesulfonamide with pyrrole leads to a mixture of 2-mono-and 2,5-disubstituted pyrroles, whereas in the reaction with 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole only the 2-substituted compound is formed. N-(2,2-Dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide reacts with 1H-pyrrole to form N-[2,2-dichloro-2-phenyl-1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)ethyl]-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide, and its reaction with 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole gives a mixture of 2-and 3-monosubstituted derivatives. The results of quantum-chemical calculations of the initial reactants and products indicate that the process is orbital-controlled. A good agreement is observed between the experimental data and theoretical conclusions concerning the dependence of the reaction regioselectivity on the nature of substituents in the electrophile molecule.     

Synthesis and reactions of 3-(3-ethoxycarbonyl-1-phenyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazol-4-yl)propenic acid

In reactions of this acid chloride with 4-amino-5-aryl(hetaryl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols were obtained ethyl 4-[(E)-2-{3-aryl(hetaryl)[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-yl}ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazoe-3-carboxylates, with 5-aryltetrazoles, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates, with 1-(2-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl) followed by the Baker-Venkataraman rearrangement and the cyclization, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(6,8-dimethyl-4-oxo-4Hchromen-2-yl)ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate.     

New functionalization opportunities for <Emphasis Type="Italic">peri</Emphasis>-hydroxynaphthoyl and <Emphasis Type="Italic">peri</Emphasis>-fused heterocyclic compounds

A capability was studied of hydrogenated α-pyrone heterocycle in 7-methoxy-4-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[h]chromen-2-one to undergo aminolysis under the treatment with hydrazine hydrate, primary and secondary aliphatic and aromatic amines. A new approach was developed to the preparation of perihydroxyketone of naphthalene series containing a specific functional substituent in the ortho-position with respect to hydroxy group. The effect was revealed of an acetyl group in the position 9 of 7-methoxy-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[h]chromen-2-one on the reaction of this compound with aliphatic amines and hydrazine hydrate. 9-Methoxy-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-3H-benzo[de]pyrido[3,2,1-if]cinnolin-3-one [9-methyl-6-methoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-10,10a-diazapyren-1-one] was obtained, a new bis-peri-fused heteroaromatic system.     

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-one derivatives

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one and its N-methyl derivatives at 0–5°C and 60°C gives 5-nitro-and 5,6-dinitro-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, respectively. The latter can also be obtained by nitration of 5-mononitro derivatives under similar conditions. The nitration of 6-chloro-and 6-bromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones and their N-methyl-substituted analogs leads to the formation of the corresponding 6-chloro(bromo)-5-nitro compounds. The same products are formed in the nitration of 5,6-dichloro-and 5,6-dibromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones. In this case, the process involves replacement of the halogen atom in position 5 of the pyridine fragment by nitro group. The nitration of 6-bromo-5-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one is accompanied by oxidation of the 5-methyl group to carboxy.

An approach is developed to the synthesis of 2-methyl-7-phenyl-5,8-dihydro-4H-pyrazolo[5,1-d]-[1,2,5]triazepin-4-one, based on the recyclization of 2-methyl-6-phenyl-4H-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,4]oxazin-4-one with hydrazine.     

Fusion of 2-(furan-2-yl)thiazole to 1-methyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-benzimidazole

Methylation of 5(6)-nitro-1H-benzimidazole with methyl iodide in the presence of potassium hydroxide and N-methylpyrrolidin-2-one gave a mixture of isomeric 1-methyl-5-nitro- and 1-methyl-6-nitro-1H-benzimidazoles which were reduced with tin in concentrated aqueous HCl on heating. The resulting amines reacted with furan-2-carbonyl chloride in N-methylpyrrolidin-2-one to give furan-2-carboxamides which were treated with excess P₂S₅ in pyridine. Oxidation of isomeric furan-2-carbothioamides with K₃[Fe(CN)₆] in alkaline medium afforded a mixture of intramolecular cyclization products, 2-(furan-2-yl)-6-methyl-6H-imidazo[4,5-g][1,3]benzothiazole and 2-(furan-2-yl)-8-methyl-8H-imidazo[4,5-g][1,3]benzothiazole which were separated by column chromatography and identified.
