Reactions of 4-Chloro-3-formylcoumarin with Arylhydrazines

The interaction of 3-formyl-4-coumarin with arylhydrazine hydrochlorides in the presence of sodium acetate gave the corresponding 3-arylhydrazonomethyl-4-chlorocoumarin, and with phenylhydrazine, 4-bromo- and 4-chlorophenylhydrazine hydrochlorides in the presence of two equivalents of triethylamine gave either 1-aryl- or 2-aryl[1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazol-4-ones depending on the reaction conditions. In reactions of 4-chloro-3-formylcoumarin with 2,4-dichloro-, 2,4-difluoro-, 2-hydroycarbonyl-, 4-nitro- and 3,5-di(trifluoromethyl)phenylhydrazine, 2-pyridyl- and 2-quinoxalylhydrazine in the presence of excess of triethylamine the 2-aryl[1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-ones were obtained exclusively. The structures of 1-phenyl- and 2-(2-pyridyl)[1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazolo-4(1H)ones were confirmed by X-ray crystallography. A simple method is proposed to distinguish between 1- and 2-substituted [1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazolo-4-ones on the basis of the ¹H NMR chemical shifts of the C(3)-H proton in two solvents - DMSO-d₆ and CDCl₃.     

Pechmann reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarins and thiocoumarins with cyclohexanone and ethyl cyclopentanone-2-carboxylates

The Pechmann reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarins with cyclohexanone and ethyl cyclopentanone-2-carboxylates affords 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro[2]benzopyrano[4,3-c][1]benzopyran-5,12-diones and cyclopenta[3′,4′]pyrano-[3,2-c][1]benzopyran-4,11-diones.

Sodium m-nitrobenzene sulfonate, widely used in dehydrogenation of 4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-pyridazinones to their corresponding aromatic derivatives, behaves in an unexpected way when 4,4a-dihydro-5H[1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyridazin-3(2H)-ones are employed as substrate.

Potassium Carbonate–Mediated Efficient and Convenient Synthesis of 3-Methyl-1-phenylchromeno[4,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones

Unprecedented cyclization was observed during N-sulfonylation of 3-[1-(phenylhydrazono)-ethyl]-chromen-2-one in pyridine, affording 3-methyl-1-phenylchromeno[4,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones. To avoid use of noxious pyridine, reaction was tried in different basic conditions and the best results were obtained with potassium carbonate in acetone. A wide range of substrates bearing either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents on phenylhydrazine ring were compatible with the developed methodology. Rapid access of starting material, 3-acetylcoumarin, excellent yields of products, and use of environmentally benign base and solvent for the cyclization make this strategy an efficient and convenient method for synthesis of 3-methyl-1-phenylchromeno[4,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones.

A comparison of nucleophilic reactions of 3-benzenesulfonyloxyalloxazine and its 1-methyl analog

Reactions of 3-benzenesulfonyloxyalloxazine ( 1a ) and its 1-methyl analog 1b with a number of nucleophilic reagents are reported. Relatively small nucleophiles, such as hydroxide ion, methanol, ethanol, methylamine, hydrazine and hydroxylamine converted 1a to 4-carboxy-s-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1(2H)-ones and the corresponding esters or amides. As the size of the amine increased from methylamine to ethylamine, dimethylamine, propylamine and isopropylamine, there were obtained 4-(carboxamido)-s-triazolo[4,3-a]quin-oxalin-1(2H)-ones, (1-carboxamido)imidazolo[4,5-b]quinoxalines and 2,3-bis(ureido)quinoxalines. Sodium hydride or potassium cyanide in hot DMF degraded 1a to imidazolo[4,5-b]quinoxaline. However, methylmer-captide and benzylmercaptide ions attacked the sulfonate group of 1a to form 3-hydroxyalloxazine. 1-Methyl-3-benzenesulfonyloxyalloxazine ( 1b ) reacted with methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and to some degree 2-propanol, in the presence of triethylamine to furnish anhydro-1-hydroxy-3-methyl-4-(alkoxycarbonyl)-s-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalinium hydroxides. However, sodium methoxide in methanol converted this starting material to a mixture of anhydro-1-hydroxy-3-methyl-s-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalinium hydroxide and 1-methyl-3-hydroxyflavazole. A saturated aqueous solution of triethylamine transformed 1b to anhydro-1-hydroxy-3-methyl-s-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalinium hydroxide, apparently via the corresponding unstable 4-carboxylic acid. The reactions of 1b with a number of aliphatic amines yielded either amides based on the above mesoionic system or on the 3-carboxamido-2-quinoxalyl semicarbazide structure. The reaction of 1b with potassium cyanide furnished 1-methylimidazolo[4,5-b]quinoxaline. Mechanisms to explain all of the degradations are advanced.
