Reactions of trichloromethylarenes with hydrazine derivatives. Synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles

The effect of the solvent on the course of the reaction between trichloromethylarenes and thioacylhydrazines or acylhydrazines has been considered. In alcohols as solvents, alkyl arenecarboxylates form as a result of alcoholysis, while 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-thiadiazoles (1,3,4-oxadiazoles) form as minor products. In pyridine solutions, the major or sole products are those of reductive condensation,i.e., the correspondingN-substituted hydrazones of arenecarbaldehydes. 1,3,4-Thiadiazole or 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives are obtained in good yield when the reaction is carried out in a pyridine-alkanol mixture.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

1,2,3-Selenadiazolyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,2,3-Thiadiazolyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and 5-(1,2,3-Thiadiazolyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazoles

A series of 5-substituted-2-(4-alkyl or phenyl-1,2,3-thia(or selena)diazol-5-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were prepared. 5-Substituted-2-(4-phenyl-1,2,3-selenadiazol-5-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles upon pyrolysis afforded the corresponding alkynes. Also, a series of 5-substituted-4-amino-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl)-s-triazoles and 5-(1,2,3-thiadiazolyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazoles were prepared.     

Thermally stable silarylene-1,3,4-oxadiazole polymers

The effects of incorporating a p-phenylene- (or m-phenylene)-1,3,4-oxadiazole fragment into the backbone of poly[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-(1,3,4-oxadiazole)], which was developed by the authors, was investigated. Bis[(p-carbohydrazidophenyl)]diphenylsilane was copolymerized with dipentachlorophenyl terephthalate or isophthalate to produce the prepolymers poly[N-(p-diphenylsilylbenzoyl)-N′N″-(terephthaloyl)-N″′-(p-benzoyl)dihydrazide] and poly[N-(p-diphenylsilylbenzoyl)-N′,-N″-(isophthaloyl)-N″′-p-(benzoyl) dihydrazide], respectively. The polyhydrazides were converted by thermal dehydration into poly[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-(1,3,4-oxadiazole)] and poly[1,4-phenyl-ene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyl)-1,3,4-(oxadiazole)]. The new polymers were soluble in organic solvents. Films cast from these solutions exhibited good adhesion to glass and metal surfaces. Thermal analysis showed that the heat stability of all these polymers was about the same and that they were resistant to decomposition when heated in air to about 400°C. The results also indicated that these polymers were somewhat less heat-resistant than samples of poly-[1,4-phenylene(diphenylsilyl)-1,4-phenylene-2,5-]1,3,4-(oxadiazole) synthesized from bis(p-carbohydrazidophenyl)diphenylsilane and bis-(p-carbopentachlorophenoxy-phenyl)diphenylsilane.     

Ring-opening reaction of 1,3,4-oxadiazolone and 1,3,4-oxadiazolinethione: Reaction of 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one and 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-thione with amines

The ring-opening abilities of amines toward 1,3,4-oxadiazolines, 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one ( 1a ) and 2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-thione ( 1b ), were investigated with relation to their basicities or pK_b values. Oxadiazolines 1a and 1b were easily reacted with amines such as benzylamine and aniline, but not with p-nitroaniline, to form the corresponding ring-opening adducts. The reactions of both 1a and 1b with o-phenylenediamine produced benzodiazoles with the liberation of benzoylhydrazide, whereas the reactions with o-aminobenzamide furnished quinazolines with the liberation of ammonia. o-Aminophenol and o-aminothiophenol were also reacted with 1a and 1b both of them giving 1,5-dibenzoylcarbohydrazide from 1a and 1,2-dibenzoylhydrazine from 1b. From the conditions affording the corresponding ring-opening adducts or reaction products, the ring-opening abilities of the amines toward 1a and 1b are in good correlation with the strength of their basicities or pK_b values. The ring-opening of oxadiazolines were proved to occur with anilines. Therefore, the other reactions are also supposed to proceed via the ring-opening steps.     

1,3,4-oxadiazolin-2-ones from carbo-t-butoxyhydrazones

5-Substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-2-ones 2 were synthesized by the oxidation of carbo-t-butoxyhydrazones 1 of aromatic aldehydes with lead tetraacetate or, preferably, iodosobenzene diacetate. In some instances 5-acetoxy-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 3 were obtained along with 2 . The oxidation of carboethoxyhydrazones 4 gave 2-ethoxy-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 5 .     

Novel syntheses of symmetrical 2,5-diaryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,4-phenylenebis-1,3,4-oxadiazoles

The reactions of trichloromethylarenes with excess hydrazine hydrate in ethanol gives symmetrical 2,5-diaryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles in 68–96% yields. The reaction of 1,4-bis(trichloromethyl)benzene with acylhydrazines in an ethanol-pyridine mixture gives the corresponding substituted or unsubstituted 1,4-phenylenebis-1,3,4-oxadiazoles in 35–51% yields. The mass spectra of 2,5-diaryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,4-phenylenebis-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were studied. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Acylation of 5-amino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one

Acylation of 5-amino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one (2) was undertaken selectively at either the 3-NH position or at 5-amino group depending on reaction conditions. The 3-NH is highly acidic and acylation takes place with acid anhydrides at this position in high yields in the presence of pyridine or triethylamine. The diacylation of both the 3-position and the 5-amino group was only possible via the 5-amino-3-acyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one intermediates 4 . Under neutral conditions, acylation only occurs at the 5-amino group with acyl chlorides forming 5-acylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-ones 5 . 5-Acetylamino-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazolin-2-one can also be synthesized by the thermal transformation of 5-amino-3-acetyl-1,3,4-thiadi-azolin-2-one in acetic acid.     

2-Amino-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole

The structures of 2-amino-5-methyl-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, C₃H₅N₃S, and 2-amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, C₄H₇N₃S, have been determined for comparison with unsubstituted 2-amino-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le. Despite their different space groups (P2₁/n and Pbca, respectively), the packing modes of the methyl and ethyl derivatives are similar, with comparable three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding associations. This is in contrast to the hydrogen-bonding network in 2-amino-1,3,4-thia­diazo­le, which is one-dimensional and has denser packing. It is shown that both packing forms are different polymorphs of a specific subunit of each array.     

Saturated heterocycles,part 161 [1]. Synthesis of 2-hydroxycycloalkyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazoles

A number of 2-hydroxycycloalkyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole derivatives were prepared by different methods from cis- and trans-2-hydroxy-1-cycloalkanecarbohydrazides and their isocyanate or isothiocyanate adducts. In contrast with the related ring-closure reactions of 2-aminobenzoylhydrazides, no condensed skeleton heterocycles were formed in this case.     

Cyclic condensations of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds

The reactions of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds are described. 2,4-Pentanedione gave 2-thiocyanato-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine while diethylmalonate and ethyl acetoacetate yielded 5-hydroxy-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-one and 7-methyl-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, respectively. The structure of the latter compound was confirmed by a synthesis of the alternative isomeric structure (5-methyl-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrirnidin-7-one) from 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and α-bromocrotonic acid.     

Synthesis of 1,3,4-thiaza- and 1,3,4-oxazaphosphol-2-lines based onN-phosphorylated (thio)ureas

The reactions ofO-phenyl chloromethylisothiocyanatothioxophosphonate andO-phenyl chloromethylisocyanatophosphonate with trimethylsilyldiethylamine lead to the formation of 1,3,4-thiazaphosphol-2-ine and 1,3,4-oxazaphosphol-2-ine, respectively. Phosphorylation ofN-methyl-N-phenyl-N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)urea withO-phenyl chloromethylchlorophos phonate gives 1,3,4-diazaphospholidin-2-one.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1857–1859, July, 1996.     

Reactivity of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles. Nucleophilic behaviour of some 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles: Model compounds

The ambident nucleophilic behaviour of some 2-amino-5-H-1,3,4-thiadiazoles in alkylation, acylation and nitrosation reaction has been verified. The structures assigned to the 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles ( 1a-i ) and to the Δ²-1,3,4-thiadiazolines ( 2a-e ) agree with the spectral data.     

Benzohydrazides,benzothiohydrazides, and benzamidrazones as sources of 1,3,4(2H)-oxadiazolenones, 1,3,4(2H)-thiadiazolenones,and 1,2,4(5H)-triazolenones

Benzohydrazides, benzothiohydrazides, and benzamidrazones have been converted to 1,3,4(2H)-oxadiazolenones, 1,3,4(2H)-thiadiazolenenones, and 1,2,4(5H)-triazolenones respectively by reaction with ethyl chloroformate, with ethyl thiolchloroformate, and with phenyl isocyanate. In some reactions, a carbamate or urea has been isolated as intermediate.     

Synthesis of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles containing the trifluoromethyl group

The following compounds have been synthesized: 2-Amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole; N-(5-trifluoromethyl - 1,3,4-thiadizol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide; N¹-(5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)sulfanilamide, its N⁴-acetyl, N⁴-succinyl, and N⁴-pathalyl derivatives; o - m - and p-trifluoromethylbenzoylthiosemicarbazide, their corresponding 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles, their corresponding sulfanilamides, their N⁴-acetyl, N⁴-succinyl and N⁴-phthalyl derivatives; 3-o-trifluoromethylphenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol. Preliminary in-vitro assays show that synthesized sulfanilamide derivatives have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.     

Synthesis of heterocycles. Part VII Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some 7H-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine and s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives

The cyclization of 4-amino-5-aryl-3-cyanomethylthio-1,2,4-triazoles II in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid yields 7H-6-amino-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines III . Cyclization of 4-amino-5-aryl-1,2,4-tria-zole-3-thiones I with phenacyl chloride yields 7H-3-aryl-6-phenyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines IV . Similarly, compounds I condensed with cyanogen bromide, phenyl isothiocyanate and carbon disulfide to give the corresponding cyclized products 6-amino-3-aryl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles V , 3-aryl-6-phenyl-amino-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles VI and 3-aryl-striazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6(5H)thiones VII , respectively. Also in the presence of phosphoryl chloride, compounds I underwent cyclization with monocarbo-xylic acids and oxalic acid to 3,6-diaryl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole VIII and 6,6′-bis(3-aryl-s-triazolo-[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles) IX . The above compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity.     

2-Phenyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles,A new class of antimalarial substances

An investigation of hybrids of 2,5-dimethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (I) and α,α,α,α',α',α'-hexachloro-p-xylene (Hetol®) (II) as potential antimalarial agents led to the synthesis of representative 2-phenyI-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (VIa-f, VIII-X) and related trichloromethyl 1,2,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, and 1,3,4-thiadiazole (VII, XIII-XV). Treatment of the appropriately substituted benzoic: acid hydrazides (IVa-f) with trichloroacetic anhydride afforded the intermediate 1-benzoyl-2-(triehloroacetyl)hydrazines (Va-f) which were cyclized to the desired 5-(chlorophenyl, tolyl, or α,α,α-trifluorotolyl)-2-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (VIa-f) (44–66%) in situ utilizing phosphorous oxychloride. Chlorination of the 5-tolyl-2-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (VId-f) afforded 2-(trichloromethyl)-5-(α,α,α-trichloro-m- and p-tolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (VIII and IX) and 2-(α,α,α,α',α',α'-hexachloro-3,5-xylyl)-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (X) in 23–56% yield. Each of the 2-phenyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (VIa-f, VIII-X) was active against Plasmodium berghei in mice when administered in single 160 or 640 mg./kg. subcutaneous doses or given orally by drug-diet for 6 days at doses of 29–336 mg./kg./day. The 2-(trichloromethyl)-5-(α,α,α-trichlorotolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (VIII-X) were the most active compounds prepared and exhibited activity against P. berghei comparable with Hetol®. Structure-activity relationships are discussed.     

Reaktionen von 3-substituiertem 5-Trifluormethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-on mit Nucleophilen

Reactions of 3-Substituted 5-Trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one with Nucleophiles The 3-substituted 5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolones 3, 4, 13 , and 15 are attacked by N- and S-nucleophiles either at the ring C-atom C(2) or C(5). Depending on the nature of the substituent and the nucleophile, the ring-opening products 7, 10, 12 , and 14 or the ring-enlargement products 16 are formed. The reaction of 4 with thiols is a novel variant of the Grob-type fragmentation. The reactivity of the 1,3,4-oxadiazolones is compared with that of the analogous 1,3,4-thiadiazolones. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by ¹H- and ¹³ C-NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis and in vitro antimicrobial and antifungal properties of some novel 1,3,4-thiadiazole and s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives

A novel series of 2-arylthiocarbamoylhydrazino-5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles III-VII was synthesized and cyclodesulfurized into the corresponding 3-arylamino-6-phenyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles VIII-XII with DCCD. Some of the products were found to be only moderately active against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans.     

Reaction of 1,3,4-thiadiazolo and 1,3,4-triazolo[3,2-c]quinazoline derivatives with active methylene compounds

Fused quinazoline derivatives 1 and 4 react with active methylene compounds and depending on the annelated five-membered ring, two types of transformations have been observed. The 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-c]quinazoline 1 , underwent the five-membered ring opening reaction to afford the 3,4-dihydroquinazolines 2 in good yields, whereas the 1,3,4-triazolo[3,2-c]quinazoline 4 underwent nucleophilic attack at 2-position of the quinazoline ring to yield the corresponding 1,2,4-triazoles 5 .     

One-potCuAAC synthesis of (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles starting from available chloromethyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles

The one-pot CuAAC synthesis of (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and (1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives via three-component reaction of consequent nucleophilic substitution of chlorine, with azide, and its further “click” reaction, with alkynes, in the presence of CuI was studied. The utility of newly synthesized 2-(azidomethyl)-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazoles and chloromethyl-1,3,4/1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives was explored, and their limitations were determined. Novel 5-([4-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methyl)-3-(aryl)-1,2,4-oxadiazoles, 2-([4-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methyl)-5-(aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were obtained in good yields.
