Hydrochloric acid reacts with 5-ethyl-2-methallylsulfanyl-6-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-ones to protonate the nitrogen atom; it adds to the double bond of 2-prenylsulfanyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and gives the addition and heterocyclization products in the case of 2-prenylsulfanyl-6-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one.

A reaction of N-substituted 5-amino-3-(2-oxopropyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal gave 3-(5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl)-4-(dimethylamino)but-3en-2-ones, whose cyclization with hydrazine, guanidine, 1H-pyrazol-5-amines and 6-aminopyrimidin-4(3H)-ones led to 3-methyl-1H-pyrazole, 4-methylpyrimidin-2-amine, 5-methyl3-arylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, and 5-methyl-2-R-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones containing a 5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazole fragment linearly bound at position 3.     

Efficient synthesis of new 1-alkyl(aryl)-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrol-2(5H)-ones

The synthesis of 1-alkyl(aryl)-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrol-2(5H)-ones 5, 6a-d from 1-alkyl(aryl)-4-bromo-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrolidin-2-ones 3, 4a-d is reported. The 1-alkyl(aryl)-4-bromo-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrolidin-2-ones 3, 4a-d were obtained from regiospecific bromination of 1-alkyl(aryl)-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrolidin-2-ones 1, 2a-d with molecular bromine. The NMR and X-ray diffraction data showed that 1-alkyl(aryl)-5-(3,3,3-trihalo-2-oxopropylidene)-1H-pyrrolidin-2-ones were brominated at 4-position in the pyrrolidin-2-one ring.     

Substituted Butanolides and Butenolides: XVII. Substituted 3-(Furan-2-ylmethylidene)furan-2(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones and 3-(Furan-2-ylmethylidene)dihydrofuran-2(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

A number of furan-2-ylmethylidene-substituted lactones were synthesized by condensation of 5-alkylfuran-2(3H)-ones and 4-alkyldihydrofuran-2(3H)-ones with 5-substituted furan-2-carbaldehydes. The reactivity of furan-2(3H)-ones was higher than that of furan-2(5H)-ones due to formation of intermediate conjugated anion. The condensation of 4-alkyldihydrofuran-2(3H)-ones with furan-2-carbaldehydes required more severe conditions than the condensation with furan-2(3H)-ones. The substituent in the furan ring affects the reaction time and yield.     

Novel route of the reaction of trifluoromethyl-containing N-methyl(4-ethoxyphenyl)imidazolidin-2-ones with urea

The reactions of perfluorobiacetyl with N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)- and N-methylurea afforded cis- and trans-isomers of 1-methyl-4,5-dihydroxy-4,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)imidazolidin-2-one and 1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-4,5-dihydroxy-4,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)imidazolidin-2-one in a yield of ～60—75%. N-Alkyl(aryl)bis(trifluoromethyl)imidazooxazoles were obtained as unexpected products in the reaction of 1-alkyl(aryl)-4,5-dihydroxy-4,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)imidazolidin-2-ones with urea in dimethylacetamide. The reaction is accompanied by the rearrangement of imidazolidin-2-ones to N-alkyl(aryl)-5,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)hydantoins with CF₃ group migration from position 5 to position 4 of the starting heterocycle. A similar rearrangement is observed on boiling of the studied imidazolidin-2-ones in dimethylacetamide. The molecular structures of 3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-5,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)imidazolidine-2,4-dione and 6-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3a,6a-bis(trifluoromethyl)tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-d]oxazole-2,5-dione were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Synthesis of Substituted Pyridazin-3-ones, 1,2-Oxazin-3-ones,and Furopyrimidines from (Arylmethylidene)furan-2(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Reactions of 5-substituted 3-(arylmethylidene)furan-2(3H)-ones with hydrazine hydrate, hydroxylamine, and guanidine involved opening of the furanone ring. Their hydrazinolysis under mild conditions afforded acyclic 4-oxoalkanoic acid hydrazides which underwent heterocyclization to substituted pyridazinones in boiling ethanol. The presence of an alkyl substituent in the 5-position of the initial furanone favored heterocyclization with the formation of pyrazolidinone derivatives. The reactions of 3-(arylmethylidene)furan-2(3H)-ones with hydroxylamine and guanidine also produced new six-membered heterocycles, 2H-1,2-oxazin-3(4H)-ones and 4,6-disubstituted 3,4-dihydrofuro[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-amines, respectively.     

Synthesis of 3-alkylquinoxalin-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones via Grignard reaction

A two-step procedure has been developed for the synthesis of 3-alkylquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones from o-phenylenediamine and ethyl 2-oxoalkanoates prepared by the Grignard reaction of diethyl oxalate with alkyl bromides. Analogous reaction with α,ω-dibromoalkanes instead of alkyl bromides leads to the formation of 3,3′-(alkane-α,ω-diyl)di[quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones].     

Alkylation of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-polyfluoroalkylpyrimidin-4(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones with haloalkanes

The alkylation of ambident anions of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-(polyfluoroalkyl)pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones with 4-bromobutyl acetate leads to concurrent formation of O- and N-(4-acetoxybutyl) derivatives. Polar aprotic solvents favor formation of the O-isomer, and weakly polar dioxane favors N-alkylation. The reaction of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one with an equimolar amount of 1,2-dibromoethane in polar acetonitrile gives a mixture of N,N-, O,O-, and N,O-bridged bis-pyrimidines, as well as N- and O-[2-(methylsulfanyl)ethyl] derivatives, whereas in the presence of 10 equiv of 1,2-dibromoethane the N,O-isomer is formed as the only product. The reaction in weakly polar tetrahydrofuran yields N,N- and N,O-bispyrimidines.

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.

Aroyl(imidoyl)ketenes generated by decarbonylation of pyrrolobenzoxazinetriones undergo dimerization through [4+2]-cycloaddition to form 4-aroyl-3-aroyloxy-2-(2-oxo-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)-1H, 5H-pyrido[2,1-c][1,4]benzoxazine-1,5-diones.
