2-(2-propynylsulfanyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one with arylsulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of anti-Markownikoff Ad _E-addition. The use of nitromethane as solvent in the presence of lithium perchlorate additives favored intramolecular electrophilic cyclization into 1-arylsulfanyl-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thieno[3,2-e][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]-pyrimidin-5-one.     

Electrophilic heterocyclization of 6-alken(yn)ylsulfanyl-pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

6-Allylsulfanyl-1-arylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones react with iodine and sulfuric acid to give angular pyrazolothiazolopyrimidine derivatives. The reaction of 6-(prop-2-yn-1-ylsulfanyl)-1-(4-tolyl)-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one with sulfuric acid gives angularly fused pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,3]thiazolo-[3,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one, whereas in the reaction with sodium methoxide linearly fused pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,3]-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one was formed. Linearly fused pyrazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazole derivatives were also obtained by reaction of 1-aryl-6-(3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ylsulfanyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones with sulfuric acid.     

Fluorinated [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidines and [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>][1,2,4]triazines*

The reaction of 3-R-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid gave 2-R-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-ones. The reaction of a 3-R-1,2,4-triazolyl-5-diazonium salt with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid and subsequent cyclization of the triazolylhydrazones lead to 7-R-3-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(1H)-ones.

2-Cyanomethyl derivatives were obtained of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, and imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole, and their reactivity was investigated by an example of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine: It was subjected to nitration, bromination, azo coupling and nitrosation. Acylation of the methylene group effected by amino acids esters with a subsequent addition of the amino group to the cyano group resulted in the formation of 5-amino-4-imidazo[1,2-a]-pyridin-2-yl-1-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrol-3-one and 2-amino-1-ethyl-3-imidazol[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl-4(1H)-quinolinone.

Condensation of 4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and 4-amino-6-methyl-3-sulfanyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one with ethyl cyanoacetate gave ethyl [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-ylacetate and ethyl 3-methyl-4-oxo-4H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-7-ylacetate, respectively. Reactions of the condensation products with 1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-one, aromatic aldehydes, and carbon disulfide or N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (followed by treatment with hydrazine hydrate) gave the corresponding 6-hetaryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles and 7-hetaryl-3-methyl-4H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-ones.

Cyclofunctionalization of 6-alkenylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones with arenesulfenyl chlorides

Reactions of 6-allylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one with arenesulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of addition of the latter at the exocyclic double bond, while analogous reactions in acetic acid in the presence of LiClO₄ were accompanied by intramolecular electrophilic cyclization involving the N⁷ atom. 6-Cinnamylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one reacted with arenesulfenyl chlorides in acetic acid in the absence of electrolyte to produce fused pyrazolo[4′,3′: 5,6]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine derivatives. Introduction of a bulky phenyl group into position 1 of the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine system reduces the yield of the corresponding intramolecular cyclization product at N⁷ as a result of concurrent formation of acyclic addition product.

Azines and azoles: CXXVII. 5-phenyl-7<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>][1,3]thiazin-7-ones: Synthesis and structure

Reactions of 1-acylthiosemicarbazides with methyl 3-phenylprop-2-ynoate provide a new one-step procedure for the synthesis of 2-substituted 5-phenyl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones. The product structure was determined on the basis of scalar spin-spin coupling constants ² J(¹H-¹⁵N) and ³ J(¹H-¹⁵N) in the ¹H and ¹⁵N NMR spectra and was proved by X-ray analysis. Methyl 3-phenylprop-2-ynoate reacted with 1-acetylthiosemicarbazide in ethanol in the presence of H₂SO₄ to give 3-methyl-7-phenyl[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b]-[1,3]thiazin-5-one as the only product.

Abstract  The reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one or its 2-methylthio derivative with hydrazonoyl halides, in the presence of triethylamine, yielded 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The structure of the latter compounds was further confirmed by reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one with the appropriate active chloromethylenes followed by coupling of the products with benzenediazonium chloride to afford the non-isolable azo-coupling products which converted, in situ, to 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The reaction mechanism was proposed and the products were screened for their biological activity. Some of the newly synthesized compounds had a moderate effect against some bacterial and fungal species. Graphical abstract

Cyclocondensation reaction of 3-hydrazinyl-2-naphthoic acid with diphenyl-N-cyanoimidocarbonate furnished the target 2-phenoxy-benzo[g][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-5(4H)-one (1) in high yield. Alkylation, thionation and chlorination of the lactam group in the compound 1 produced a variety of derivatives 2–17. Their structures were characterized by NMR and HREI-MS analyses.     

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.     

Synthesis of azepino[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]benzimidazoles and imidazo[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]azepines

Fusion of 4-bromo-1,3-diphenyl-2-buten-1-ones (γ-bromodypnones) with 1,2-dimethyl-1H-benzimidazole and further treatment of the reaction product with a base (morpholine) gives 7,9-diaryl-5-methyl5,10-dihydroazepino[1,2-a]benzimidazol-11-ium bromides. The reaction of γ-bromodypnone with 1-alkyl-2-methyl-1H-imidazoles in benzene at 25 °C gives quaternary azolium salts. Upon heating their solutions in alcohol in the presence of K₂CO₃ the latter cyclize to 1-R-6,8-diaryl-1,5-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]azepin-4-ium bromides or 1-R-6,8-diaryl-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]azepines depending on the nature of the substituent in the benzene rings and the substituent at the N(1) atom of the imidazole.     

Regioselectivity of cyclization of 3-allyl(propargyl)sulfanyl-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]indoles

The interaction of 3-allylsulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole with iodine led to 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[2',3':3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-11-ium pentaiodide with an angular structure, on the basis of which 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo-, 1-methylidene-1,2-di-hydro[1,3]thiazolo, and 1-methyl[1,3]thiazolo derivatives were obtained. The intramolecular cyclization of 3-propargyl(allyl)sulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indoles under the influence of concentrated sulfuric acid led to linear annelated products:3-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b]indole or its 2,3-dihydro derivative.
