Efficient route to benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]phthalazines

Benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]phthalazines have been obtained from various o-nitrophenylhydrazines through different 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,2-dihydro-1-phthalazinones as intermediates using an elaborated advanced procedure. An activated chlorine atom in 2-nitrophenyl moiety of the latter is able to undergo nucleophilic substitution for secondary alicyclic amines yielding novel substituted phthalazinones. Their one-pot reduction and cyclodehydration yield a series of novel substituted benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]phthalazines.     

Synthesis of benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]phthalazines

5,9-Disubstituted benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]phthalazines are synthesized efficiently from acylbenzoic acids and 2-nitro-5-chlorophenylhydrazine. Nucleophilic substitution in phthalazinones gave a variety of the title compounds after reduction and cyclization.     

new simple and one-pot synthetic routes to polyfunctionally substituted imidazo-[1,2-a]pyridines, pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidines, pyrido-[1,2-a]-1,3-diazepines, and imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines

Reactions of arylidenemalononitriles with 2-nitromethylene-substituted imidazolidine, hexahydropyrimidine, and hexahydro-1,3-diazepine afforded the title derivatives. Reaction of 2-nitromethylenehexahydropyrimidine with benzylamine or n-butylamine and formalin in a molar ratio of 1:1:2 gave the hexahydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine derivatives. Treatment of 2-nitromethyleneimidazolidine and hexahydropyrimidine with secondary aliphatic amines and formalin in a molar ratio of 1:1:1 afforded the corresponding methylene bis-compounds.

Synthesis of imidazo[4,5-a]acridones and imidazo[4,5-a]acridines as potential antibacterial agents

Abstract  

New imidazo[4,5-a]acridone derivatives were synthesized from the rearrangement of 3H-imidazo[4′,5′:3,4]benzo[c]isoxazoles. New imidazo[4,5-a]acridines were obtained from the reaction of imidazo[4,5-a]acridones in boiling POCl₃. All of these compounds exhibited antimicrobial activities comparable to streptomycin as reference drug.     

Regioselective synthesis of 4-aryl-3,4-dihydro-1,3,5-triazino[2,1-a]isoindol-2-ones

The condensation of binucleophilic 3-amino-1-arylimino-1H-isoindoles with bifunctional 1-chloro-benzylisocyanates occurs regioselectively resulting in 3,4-dihydro-1,3,5-triazino[2,1-a]isoindol-2-one derivatives. The structures of the synthesized compounds were unambiguously established by NOE experiments.

Benzo[f]isoindole derivatives from cycloaddition reaction of 2,4-dimethylpyrimido[2,1-a]isoindole and maleimides

In contrast to the previously reported results in the reaction of maleimides with pyrido[2,1-a]isoindole and 1,2-bis substituted isoindoles, the reaction between 2,4-dimethylpyrimido[2,1-a]isoindole and maleimides leads to the formation of unusual products. Their structure is assessed by NMR and mass spectrometry. An original reaction pathway is proposed. The high quantum yields observed in fluorescence opens the route to applications as biological probes. To cite this article: Z.V. Voitenko et al., C. R. Chimie 9 (2006).     

Cyclization of Nitrospirobenzopyrans to Bridged Benzoxazepino[3,2-a]indoles

Condensation of 1-substituted 1,2,3,9a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]indol-2-ones with 5-nitrosalicylaldehyde afforded 1′-[(N-monosubstituted carbamoyl)methyl]indoline nitrospirobenzopyrans. Treatment of the latter with strong base led to the formation of a mixture of cis/trans-5a,13-methano-1,3-benzoxazepino[3,2-a]indoles. Results of semiempirical calculations gave evidence that such a transformation of nitrospirobenzopyrans to bicyclic indole derivatives could proceed via a single transition state, where the negatively charged carbon atom attacks the vinylic double bond of the spiropyran system.     

Synthesis of novel imidazo[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines and pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines

Several 1 1-amino-5H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines have been used as starting material to prepare a number of derivatives of 9H-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines and 10H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines. The imidazole nucleus was built by reaction of amidines with ethyl bromopyruvate or aminoacetaldehyde dimethylacetal. Several derivatives of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine have been prepared by formylation of the pyrrole ring followed by formation of thioamides. Condensation of 11-amino-5H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines with diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate afforded intermediate diesters which were transformed into the corresponding 10H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c]-benzodiazepines.     

The synthesis of indolo- and pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines

The synthesis of fused isoquinolines from N-benzyl protected indoles and pyrroles is described. For example, treatment of t-butyl-2-(2-formyl-3,4-dihydro-1-naphthalenyl)-3-methyl-1H-indole-1-carboxylate with KOBu^t in DMF provided 14-methyl-8-phenylbenzo[h]indolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline in good yield. Analogous N-benzylpyrrole precursors could similarly be cyclized to give pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines.     

Condensed Pyridine Bases. Synthesis and Reactions of Benzofuro[2,3-c]indeno[2,1-e]-, Benzothieno[2,3-c]Indeno[2,1-e]-, Benzofuro-[3,2-c]Indeno[2,1-e]- and Thieno[2,3:4′,5′]-thieno[3,2-c]indeno[2,1-e]pyridines

Condensation of hetarene carboxaldehydes with phthalide gave 2-(3-hydroxy-1-oxoinden-2-yl)benzo[b]furan and 2-(3-hydroxy-1-oxoinden-2-yl)-5-ethylthieno[2,3-b]thiophene. Starting from hetaryl acetic acids gave 3-(3-hydroxy-1-oxoinden-2-yl)benzo[b]furan and 3-(3-hydroxy-1-oxoinden-2-yl)benzo[b]thiophene. Acylation of 3-hydroxy-1-oxoinden-2-yl-substituted heterocycles using acetic anhydride in the presence of 70% HClO₄ leads to the formation of pentacyclic pyrilium salts. Pentacyclic indenopyridines are prepared by treating the pyrilium salts with ammonia. The reaction of the carbonyl group in the indenopyridines with hydroxylamine, hydrazine hydrate, and in reduction using NaBH₄ has been studied.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 435–443, March, 2005.
