On Triazoles. XIII. The reaction of 5-benzalimino-1,2,4-triazoles with substituted acetyl chlorides

The reaction of Schiff bases prepared from 1- and 2-substituted-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles with phenoxyacetyl chlorides in the presence of triethylamine and a mixture of phosphorus oxychloride and dichloroacetic acid in dimethylformamide to yield β-lactam 4 , a dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine-5(1H)-one 5, a 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(3H)-one 9 and the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine-5(1H)-one 10 derivatives was studied.     

A synthesis of 6-functionalized 4,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

6-Unsubstituted 7-R-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (R = H or Me) were synthesized via two pathways: (a) deacylation of the corresponding 5-acetyl Biginelli-like precursors in KOH/H₂O and (b) reduction of the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines using LiAlH₄. The products could be easily formylated at position 6, which is promising for the further synthesis of functionalized 6-substituted derivatives of 4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. In contrast, 6-acetyl-7-(4-(N,N-dimethylaminophenyl))-5-methyl-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine undergoes a cascade process in KOH/H₂O, leading to the formation of a 4,5,8,9-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline derivative.     

Reactions with diazoazoles. Part VI. Unequivocal synthesis of 3-methyl-3h-azolotetrazoles. Correction of the formerly described 3-methylazolotetrazoles in favour of mesoionic 2-methylazolotetrazoles

3-Methyl-3H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles 2 and 3-methyl-6-phenyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole (4) have been unequivocally synthesized by annulation of the tetrazole moiety to the pyrazole resp. 1,2,4-triazole system. The constitution of some N-methyl substituted azolotetrazoles, formerly described as 3-methyl-3H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles 2, 3-methyl-6-phenyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole (4) and 1-methyl-6-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazole (5), has to be revised in favour of the corresponding mesoionic 2-methyl derivatives 2′, 4′, 5′. The structures of 3-methyl-3H- as well as of 2-methyl-2H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole derivatives 2a, 2c, 2′a have been determined by X-ray analyses. The azapentalenic system is aromatic in all three measured compounds and mesoionic in the case of the 2-methyl-2H- substitution pattern. The phenyl and ester substituents are coplanar with the azapentalene system. 3-, 2-, and 1-Methylpyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazoles exhibit different behaviour when allowed to react with stannous chloride or sodium ethoxide. Azolotetrazoles with a methyl substituent at N-1, N-2 or N-3 of the tetrazole moiety can be distinguished by a combination of ¹H and ¹³C nmr with respect to the chemical shifts of the N-methyl group and the bridgehead carbon. Results of semiempirical calculations of the pyrazolo[1,5-d]tetrazole anion and of its N-methyl derivatives are discussed.

The synthesis of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a] and [2,3-a]pyridines 7, 8 was achieved by cyclization of 2-hydrazino-8-nitropyridine 3a with formic acid.

The reduction of triazolo pyridine 8 using stannous chloride led to the intermediate compound 10 which with acetic anhydride afforded 8-acetylamino-5-chloro-1,2,4-triazolo[2,3-a]pyridine 10a . The structure of the derivatives was determined by ¹H-nmr (DMSO-d₆).

Whereas 2-amino-3-ethoxycarbonyl-4,5-dihydrofurans Ia-c condense with 5-membered amidine derivatives, via elimination of ethanol to afford the azolopyrimidines IIIa,b, XI, and XIVa,b, the 2-amino-3-cyano-4,5-dihydrofurans Id,e give with the same reagents, under elimination of ammonia, the novel ring systems of furo-azolopyrimidines XVIII and XXa,b. 2-Amino-3-ethoxycarbonyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-thiopyrane (XXI) reacts with 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole (II) to yield the triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine XXII, and with 2-aminobenzimidazole to XXIII. The mechanism of these reactions is discussed. XIVb and VIIb are cyclized in a secondary step to give the novel furo[2,3-d]benzimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine XXVI, and furo[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine XXVIII respectively, besides the acetoxy derivatives XVII and XXIX.

Compounds 8a,b and 9a,b showed the tautomeric equilibria between the hydrazone imine C and diazenyl enamine D forms in dimethyl sulfoxide and/or trifluoroacetic acid, and the effects of solvent and temperature on the tautomer ratios of C to D were studied by the nmr measurements in a series of mixed trifluoroacetic acid/dimethyl sulfoxide media (compounds 8a,b and 9a,b ) and at various temperatures (compounds 8a,b ).

Spectroscopical evidence was given for the structure of compounds obtained.     

Study of the Products of Iodocyclization of 4-Allyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione

The interaction of 4-allyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione with iodine proceeds with the formation of a mixture of 6-iodomethyl-3-phenyl-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazole and 6-iodo-3-phenyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3-thiazine.
