Synthesis of the 3-methyl and 4-methyl derivatives of 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-1-hydroxycarbostyril and related compounds

The 3-methyl and 4-methyl derivatives of 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-1-hydroxycarbostyril were synthesized by the reductive cyclization of α-methyl-β-(o-nitrophenyl)alanine and α-amino-β-(o-nitrophenyl)butyric acid hydrohalides, respectively, under conditions of catalytic hydrogenation in acidic solution. The free bases of the latter two o-nitroaromatic amino acids were also catalytically hydrogenated under neutral conditions to yield the respective α-methyl-β-(o-aminophenyl)alanine and α-amino-β-(o-aminophenyl)butyric acid which were converted to the corresponding lactams, 3-methyl- and 4-methyl-3-amino-3,4-dihydrocarbostyrils. α-Methyl-β-(o-nitrophenyl)alanine was obtained by acid hydrolysis of 5-methy)-5-(o-nitrobenzyl)hydantoin which was prepared by treatment of o-nitrophenylacetone with potassium cyanide and ammonium carbonate. α-Amino-β-(o-nitrophenyl)butyric acid was synthesized by condensation of α-bromo-o-nitroethylbenzene with diethyl acetamidomalonate, followed by acid hydrolysis of the condensation product. The 4-methylated compounds were obtained as synthetic mixtures of two diasteromeric racemates in nearly the same amounts as shown by nmr spectral analysis. Unlike the demethylated parent compound, 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-1-hydroxycarbostyril, neither the 3-methyl nor 4-methyl analog was found to possess any antibacterial activity.     

Studies on phenothiazines. Part 16 . Synthesis and spectral studies of substituted 1,2-dichlorophenothiazines

Synthesis of the title compounds by the Smiles rearrangement has been reported. 1,2-Dichloro-7-substituted phenothiazines have been prepared by the Smiles rearrangement of 3,4-dichloro-2-formamido-2′-nitro-4′-substituted-diphenyl sulphides. The latter were obtained by the formylation of the diphenyl sulphides obtained by the condensation of 2-amino-3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol with o-halogenonitrobenzenes. 9-Nitrophenothiazines have been prepared by the reaction of 2-amino-3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol with substituted o-halonitrobenzenes containing a nitro group at both ortho positions to the halo atom in which Smiles rearrangement occurs in situ. The ir, nmr and mass spectral studies are also included.     

A facile synthesis of unsymmetrical heterocyclic azines by cyclodesulfurization: Reaction of methyl arylalkylidenehydrazinecarbodithioates with diamines

A new and facile synthesis of unsymmetrical heterocyclic azines is described. Methyl arylalkylidenehydraz-inecarbodithioates, prepared by the condensation of ketones or aldehydes with methyl hydrazinecarbodithioate, were heated under reflux with various diamines in ethanol. Secondary diamines, such as N,N′-dimethyl-ethylenediamine, N,N′-dimethyl-1,3-diaminopropane or N,N′-dimethyl-o-phenylenediamine, reacted smoothly with loss of hydrogen sulfide to give good yields of unsymmetrical azines. However, primary diamines, such as ethylenediamine or o-phenylenediamine, and primary/secondary diamines, such as N-methylethyl-enediamine and N-methyl-1,3-diaminopropane gave, instead, only the corresponding uncyclized thiosemi-carbazones. A cyclodesulfurization mechanism for azine formation is discussed.     

Novel synthetic protocol toward pyrazolo[3,4‐h]‐[1,6]naphthyridines via Friedlander condensation of new 4‐aminopyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine‐5‐carbaldehyde with reactive α‐methylene ketones

Novel pyrazolo[3,4‐h][1,6]naphthyridine derivatives 6 , 8 , 9 , 11 , 13 , and 15 have been synthesized by Friedlander condensation of new 4‐amino‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine‐5‐carbaldehyde (o‐aminoaldehyde) 4 with active methylene ketones, such as symmetric acetone 5a , monoalkylketones 5b , 5c , 5d , 5e , 5f , 5g , 5h , 5i , 5j , 5k , unsymmetrical dialkyl ketones 7a , 7b , p‐bromophenylacetonitrile 10 , β‐ketoester 12a , β‐ketoamide 12b , or diethyl malonate 14 , respectively.

Reactions of epoxides derived from internal perfluoroolefins with o-phenylenediamine and 2-aminophenol

The reactions of epoxy derivatives of internal perfluoroolefins with o-phenylenediamine and 2-aminophenol in dioxane gave 23–67% of the corresponding 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)quinoxalines and 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-2-ols, respectively. When N,N-dimethylacetamide was used as a solvent, the main reaction pathway was anionic isomerization of epoxides into ketones which were then converted into 2-perfluoroalkylbenzimidazoles (in the reactions with o-phenylenediamine) or 2-hydroxy-N-perfluoroalkanoylanilines (in the reactions with 2-aminophenol). The reaction of 3,4-epoxydodecafluorohexane with 2-aminophenol in N,N-dimethylacetamide was accompanied by unusual cyclization to afford 2-pentafluoropropanoyl-2-pentafluoroethyl-1,3-benzoxazolidine.     

Synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of some novel 3-aminoquinazolines

A number of novel 3-aminoquinazolines were obtained via two synthetic pathways. In the first method o-aminobenzoylhydrazines were prepared either by reacting an isatoic anhydride and a hydrazine or by reacting o-nitrobenzoic acid with a hydrazine, followed by catalytic reduction. Subsequent cyclization with an appropriate orthoester provided 3-aminoquinazolines and 2-methyl-3-aminoquinazolines. The second pathway involved condensation of o-aminoacetophenone with a hydrazine to form hydrazones which were reduced to aminohydrazines and cyclized as above to yield 4-methyl-3-aminoquinazolines and 2,4-dimethyl-3-aminoquinazolines. The title compounds were evaluated in mice in MES and sc Met seizure models for anticonvulsant activity, and in the rotorod test for neurotoxicity. They were generally toxic. However, 4-methyl-3-(N-piperidino)-3,4-dihydroquinazoline hydrochloride exhibited activity comparable to that of methaqualone.     

A convenient one pot synthesis of substituted 4-aminobenzopyrano[3,4-c]pyridinones

A new synthesis of substituted 4-aminobenzopyrano[3,4-c]pyridinones was achieved in one pot by the condensation of an o-hydroxyaraldehyde and a cyclic or acylic methyl ketone in the presence of ammonium acetate in refluxing ethanol followed by the treatment of malononitrile and subsequent hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid in situ.     

Synthesis of some new N,N′-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazines

The synthesis of a new series of six-membered N,N′-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazines （5a-e） was achieved in excellent yields by Mannich-type condensation of N,N′-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-o-hydroxybenzyl amines （4a- e） with formaldehyde in chloroform at reflux. These amines （4a-e） were obtained by the reduction of N, Nr-diarylsubstituted methylene-bis-o-hydroxybenzyl imines （3a-e） with NaBH4, which inturn were obtained by the condensation of methylene-bissalicylaldehyde （2） with various substituted arylamines.     

Perchloric Acid Supported on Silica Catalyzed Efficient Synthesis of 1,5‐Benzodiazepines

Perchloric acid adsorbed on silica gel efficiently catalyzed the condensation of o‐phenylenediamines (OPDA) with cyclic and acyclic ketones at ambient temperature to afford 1,5‐benzodiazepines in good yields under solvent‐free conditions.     

Access to the 2,3-dihydropyridazin-3-one and as-triazino[3,4-a]phthalazine ring systems from 4-aryl-2-oxo-butanoic acids

A novel series of 2,3-dihydropyridazin-3-ones 15 were synthesized via condensation between hydrazines and 4-(p-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxy-2-(2-oxo-2-substituted ethyl)butanoic acids 8 which in turn were prepared by the reaction of substituted benzylpyruvic acids 6 with methyl alkyl(aryl) ketones 7. Dehydration of 8b-d by a mixture of glacial acetic acid and hydrochloric acid afforded 4-(p-chorophenyl)-2-(substituted phenacyl)-2-butenoic acids 10. Condensation reaction of 10 with hydrazines gave type 15 compounds in good yields. Also, a new series of as-triazino[3,4-a]phthalazines 20 was obtained from the reaction of substituted benzylpyruvic acids 6 with hydralazine to give the hydralazones 19 which underwent dehydrative cyclization reaction with PPA to afford 20. Structure assignments are based on ¹H, ¹³C nmr and ir spectra.

Synthesis and anti-neuroinflammatory activity studies of substituted 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives

We demonstrate the synthesis of multifunctional 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives 4 through a three-component condensation reactions of a substituted o-phenylenediamines 1 (OPDA), diverse ketones 2 and various isocyanides 3 in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) affording excellent yields (82–96%) and 10 mol % of silica gel supported sulfuric acid with good yields (85–98%) in ethanol at room temperature (2–4 h). We also carried out the anti-neuroinflammatory activity of 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives and some of the compounds exhibited good activity.     

1,2,3-benzotriazines. I. The synthesis of some benzimidazo [1,2-c][1,2,3]-benzotriazines and naphth[1′,2,(2′,1′):4,5]imidazo[1,2-c][1,2,3]benzotriazine

A number of substituted benzimidazo[1, 2-c][1,2,3]benzotriazines were prepared by the diazotization of the appropriate 2-(o-aminophenyl)benzimidazoles. Diazotization of 2-(o-aminophenyl)naphth[1,2-d]imidazole yielded a new heterocyclic ring system. Various methods of preparation of 2 - (o-aminophenyl)benzimidazoles were investigated. The condensation of o-phenylenediamines with anthranilic acids, in the presence of polyphosphoric acid, provided a convenient route to 2-(o-aminophenyl)benzimidazoles but in several cases the products were contaminated with considerable amounts of 6-(o-aminophenyl)benzimidazo[1,2 -c]quinazolines. 2 - (o-Aminophenyl)benzimidazoles were also obtained by the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-(o-nitrophenyl)benzimidazoles which resulted from the condensation of an o-phenylenediamine with an o-nitrobenzaldehyde in ethanol, nitrobenzene or acetic acid. When the condensation was carried out in nitrobenzene, small amounts of 2-(o-aminophenyl)benzimidazoles were also formed. The Weidenhagen synthesis, which involves the reaction of an aromatic diamine with an aldehyde in the presence of copper acetate and subsequent decomposition of the cuprous salt of the benzimidazole, yielded 2-(o-aminophenyl)benzimidazoles instead of the expected 2-(o-nitrophenyl)benzimidazoles when the decomposition was carried out in ethanol. When the cuprous salt was treated with hydrogen sulfide in dilute hydrochloric acid, a mixture of amino- and nitrobenzimidazoles resulted. The ultraviolet and infrared spectra of all the compounds prepared were examined.     

Polyimides derived from diels-alder polymerization of furfuryl-substituted maleamic acids or from the reaction of bismaleamic with bisfurfurylpyromellitamic acids

Certain AB or AA and BB Diels-Alder polymer precursors bearing maleimide and furan segments were synthesized, characterized, and polymerized. Particularly, the monomaleamic acid derived from 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, reacted with the monofurfurylpyromellitamic acid to yield a triamic acid which was cyclodehydrated to the corresponding triimide. A polyimide was obtained upon heat-curing of triimide or the intermediate triamic acid. In addition, equimolar amounts of N,N'-bismaleimido-4,4'-diphenylmethane (BMDM) and bisfurfurylpyromellitimide or their intermediate diamic acids were cured to afford a polyimide. The polymer precursors were characterized by IR and ¹H-NMR spectroscopy and their curing behavior was investigated by DTA. It was shown that the Diels-Alder polymerization of monomers took place at lower temperature than that required for crosslinking of BMDM. The thermal stabilities of polymers were ascertained by TGA and isothermal gravimetric analysis (IGA). The synthesized Diels-Alder polymers were remarkably more heat-resistant than the crosslinked polymer obtained from BMDM or its intermediate bismaleamic acid. They were stable up to about 360°C in N₂ or air and afforded anaerobic char yield of 58% at 800°C. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthetic utility of a heterocyclic o-aminoaldehyde: synthesis of pyrazolopyridopyrimidines, pyrazolonaphthyridines, and pyrazolopyrimidonaphthyridinones

Abstract  

A series of various polysubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-h][1,6]naphthyridines, benzo[b]pyrazolo[3,4-h][1,6]naphthyridines, and pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidines were synthesized by Friedl?nder condensation of 4-amino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5-carbaldehyde (o-aminoaldehyde) with active methylene compounds. The o-aminoaldehyde was functionalized to o-aminonitrile and o-aminocarboxamide with malononitrile and cyanoacetamide, respectively, which on condensation with monosubstituted ureas and acetic anhydride, respectively, afforded pyrazolo[3,4-h]pyrimido[4,5-b][1,6]naphthyridines.     

Sonochemical Preparation of Dipicolinamide Mn‐complexes and Their Application as Catalysts Towards Sono‐synthesis of Ketones

A series of non‐heme Mn‐complexes has been synthesized by the sonication of manganese (II)chloride and bis‐amides (condensation products of 2‐picolinic acid and o‐phenylenediamines). The Mn‐complexes effectively promote the oxidation of unactivated aliphatic and benzylic C─H and N‐bearing heterocycles substrates with low catalyst loading using eco‐friendly hydrogen peroxide in the presence of acetic acid as additive under ultrasonic irradiation. Chromatographic studies revealed that the corresponding ketones are the only detectable products. Noteworthy, the presence of electron donors in the catalyst structure significantly increased the reaction yields. The substantial lowering of the oxidation reaction yields by adding ionol (2,6‐di‐tert‐butyl‐4‐methylphenol) as a free radical trap suggesting a free radical reaction pathway.     

Synthesis of 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)quinoxalines and 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)-1,4-benzoxazines from oxides of internal perfluoroolefins

The reactions of oxides of internal trans-, cis-perfluoroolefins with o-phenylenediamine and 2-aminophenol in dioxane gave 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)quinoxalines and 2,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl)-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-2-ols respectively in yields of 23-67%. When N,N-dimethylacetamide was used as a solvent an anionic isomerization of the oxides into ketones, which further yielded 2-(perfluoroalkyl)benzimidazoles in the case of o-phenylenediamine and 2-hydroxy-N-perfluoroalkanoylanilines in the case of 2-aminophenol, became the main path of these reactions. Unusual cyclization resulting in 2-pentafluoroethyl-2-pentafluoropropanoylbenzoxazolidine occurs on interaction between dodecafluoro-3,4-epoxyhexane and 2-aminophenol in N,N-dimethylacetamide.     

Amberlyst-15: an efficient and reusable catalyst for multi-component synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives at room temperature

We demonstrate on the synthesis of multifunctional 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives through a three-component condensation of substituted o-phenylenediamines (OPDA), diverse ketones, and various isocyanides in the presence of an efficient and reusable amberlyst-15 catalyst which was found to be highly active and afforded excellent yields (85-99%) in ethanol at room temperature (2-3 h).     

Synthesis and micropatterning properties of a novel base‐soluble,positive‐working,photosensitive polyimide having an o‐nitrobenzyl ether group

A novel positive‐working, photosensitive polyimide, poly[1,4‐phenyleneoxy‐1,4‐phenylene‐2,2′‐di(2‐nitrobenzyloxy)benzophenone‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxdiimide] (OPI‐Nb), developable with an aqueous base was prepared by the o‐nitrobenzylation of a polyimide, poly(1,4‐phenyleneoxy‐1,4‐phenylene‐2,2′‐dihydroxybenzophenone‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxdiimide) (OPI), derived from 2,2′‐dihydroxy‐3,3′,4,4′‐benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (DHBA) and 4,4′‐oxydianiline, and it micropatterning properties were investigated. The o‐nitrobenzylation of OPI to OPI‐Nb was conducted with o‐nitrobenzyl bromide in N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidinone containing Et₃N. The DHBA monomer was synthesized by exhaustive KMnO₄ oxidation of bis(2‐dimethoxy‐3,4‐dimethylphenyl)methane obtained by etherification of bis(2‐hydroxy‐3,4‐dimethylphenyl)methane with iodomethane, followed by deprotection of the methoxy groups and cyclodehydration of the obtained 2,2′‐dihydroxy‐3,3′4,4′‐benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid. The intermediate bis(2‐hydroxy‐3,4‐dimethylphenyl)methane was prepared by the condensation of 2,3‐dimethylphenol with paraformaldehyde. The degree of o‐nitrobenzylation was determined to be over 94 mol % from ¹H NMR absorption of benzylic CH₂ protons. The aromatic OPI was perfectly soluble in a dilute aqueous NaOH solution and tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), whereas OPI‐Nb was not even swellable in them. In the micropatterning process, OPI‐Nb showed a line‐width resolution of 0.4‐μm and a sensitivity of 5.4 J/cm² when its thin films were irradiated with 365‐nm light and developed with a 2.38% aqueous TMAH solution at room temperature for 90 s. The thickness loss of OPI‐Nb films measured after postbaking at 350 °C was in the 8–9% range. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 45: 776–788, 2007
