Synthesis of some new derivatives of 4-hydrazino-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole

This paper describes the synthesis of 1-chloro-4-hydrazino-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole ( 4 ) and some of the triazoles ( 6–8 ), tetrazoles ( 10–11 ), triazolotetrazoles ( 9 ) and bis-tetrazoles ( 12 ) derived from it. All of these were previously unknown compounds. Treating 1,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole ( 1 ) with phosphorus oxychloride gave 1,4-dichloro-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole ( 2 ), which reacts regioselectively with hydrazine to give compound 4 . The reactions of 4 with formic and acetic acids gave 6-chloro-11 H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazino[4,5-b]indoles ( 6a-6b ), respectively. Reaction of compound 6a with hydrazine gave 6-hydrazino-11H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3–6]-pyridazino[4,5,-b]indole ( 8 ). This with nitrous acid gave 6-azido-11H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazino[4,5-b]-indole ( 9 ). Compound 4 reacted with nitrous acid to give 6-chloro-11H-tetrazolo[4,5-b]pyridazino[4,5-b]-indole ( 10 ), which gave 1,4-diazydo-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole ( 12 ), through successive reactions with hydrazine and nitrous acid. All compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, ir and ¹H-nmr spectra.

2H-5-Amino-6-cyano-3,7-dioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine was subjected to ring formation affording thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine derivatives. 2H-5-Amino-6-cyano-3,7-dioxo-2-phenylmethylenethiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine was also subjected to ring formation affording pyrimido[4,5-d]-, pyrano[2,3-d]-, and pyrido[2,3-d]thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine derivatives. 2-Anilinothiocarbonyl-3,9-dioxo-8-imino-7-phenyl-6-thioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine and 8-amino-3,9-dioxo-6-thioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine reacted with α-haloactive-methylene compounds to afford heterocyclic compounds containing two, fused and isolated, thiazole moieties, respectively.     

Indole and quinoline derivatives of 2,3-dihydro-l-benzothiepin-4(5H) one

By application of the Friedlander synthesis on 2,3-dihydro-l-benzothiepin-4(5H) one (4), the corresponding [4,5-b]quinoline derivatives 5a and 5b were obtained. Starting from the ketone (4) and by application of the Fischer indole synthesis, 1-benzolhiepino[4,5-b ]indole (6) and 1-benzothiepino[4,5-b]benzo[g]indole (7) were obtained. When β-naphthylhydrazine was used in the indolisation reaction, a mixture of 1-benzothiepino[4,5-b]benzo[e]indole ( 8 ) and 1-benzothiepino[4,3-b]benzo[e] indole (9) was obtained.

This paper describes the synthesis of the previously unknown 11H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazino[4,5-b]indoles (2) and 11H-tetrazolo[4,5-b]pyridazino[4,5-b]indoles (3) from 4-hydrazino-5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indoles (1) , as well as the synthesis of 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazino-[4,5-a]indoles (10) from 2-indolecarbohydrazide (4) . Compounds 2 were obtained by acylation of compounds 1 , followed of thermal cyclization and compounds 3 by treating compounds 1 with nitrous acid. The reactions of compound 4 with formic acid or ethyl orthoformiate gave 1,2-dihydro-1-oxo-1,2,4-triazino[4,5-a]indole (6) . Treating this last compound with phosphorus oxychloride or phosphorus pentasulfide, followed by hydrazine, gave 1-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazino-[4,5-a]indole (9) . Acylation of this last compound, followed of cyclization gave compounds 10 . All the compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and ir and ¹H-nmr spectra.     

Microwave assisted synthesis of some new thiazolopyrimidine, thiazolodipyrimidine and thiazolopyrimidothiazolopyrimidine derivatives with potential antioxidant and antimicrobial activity

Biginelli reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, thiourea and the appropriate aromatic aldehyde was used to produce ethyl 4-aryl-6-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxylates, that reacted with bromomalononitrile to give ethyl 3-amino-5-aryl-2-cyano-7-methyl-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates rather than the isomeric 7H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines. Thiazolopyrimidine derivatives reacted with carbon disulphide to yield ethyl 9-aryl-7-methyl-2,4-dithioxo-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-thiazolo[3,2-a:4,5-d']dipyrimidine-8-carboxylates, that reacted with phenacyl bromide to produce ethyl 8-methyl-10-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-substituted-5-thioxo-2(un)subatituted-10H-thiazolo[3',2':1',2']pyrimido[4',5':4,5]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-9-carboxylates. The aforementioned reactions were carried out using both conventional chemical methods and with the assistance of microwave irradaition. Comparison between both methods showed that the microwave assisted method is preferable because of the time reduction and yield improvements achieved. The new compounds were tested for their biological activity as antioxidants, antibacterial or antifungal agents. Some of the new compounds were found to have moderate to good antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.     

New heterocyclic structures. [1,2,5]Thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido-[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine and thiazolo[3,2a][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

A mechanism of reaction, which hypothesizes the action of sodium hydrosulfite in an asymmetic form, is proposed. The results of single-crystal X-ray investigation on 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one (R = 0.032 for 863 reflections) and (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b]- [1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid, sodium salt (R = 0.028 for 3507 reflections) are reported.     

Studies on quinazolinones. 2. Synthesis of 2-(4-benzylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3–6]quinazolin-5-one and -2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one

To search for novel antihypertensive heterocycles in the condensed quinazoline series, two representative compounds were synthesized via a suitable reaction sequences. Treating anthranilonitrile with allyl isocyanate gave 2-(allylureido)benzonitrile ( 10 ) in a quantitative yield. Compound 10 was cyclized to 3-allylquinazoline-2(1H, 4(3H)-dione ( 11 ). Bromination of 11 in carbon tetrachloride converted it into the corresponding 3-(2,3-dibromopropyl) derivative ( 12 ) in 92% yield. Ring closure of 12 was effected by the action of alkali to afford 2-bromomethyl-2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one ( 13 ). The title compound, 2-(4-benzylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one ( 7 ) could be obtained by a reaction of either 12 or 13 with 1-benzylpiperazine respectively. Starting from the readily available 3-allyl-2H-thioxoquinazolin-4(3H)-one ( 16 ) via the analogous reactions gave the 2-bromomethyl-2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[2,3-b]-quinazolin-5-one ( 19 ) in good yield. However, the reaction of 19 with 1-benzylpiperazine provided another target compound, 2-(4-benzylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one ( 8 ) only in poor yield (8%). As major product, the dehydrobrominated compound, 2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one ( 22 ) was isolated. A preliminary pharmacological evaluation revealed that both compounds 7 and 8 are devoid of the antihypertensive activity.

A new class of compounds, 2,3-dihydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thiazolo[3,2-a]furo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones and 6,7-dihydro-5H-furo[2,3-d]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones, were synthesized via the microwave assisted radical addition of compounds 2a and 2b to various alkenes using manganese(III) acetate. A preliminary acetylcholine esterase (AchE) inhibition test of compound 4e showed excellent (92%) inhibitory potential, comparable with the standard drug Donapezil®.

Condensation of (S)-penicillamine methyl or ethyl ester hydrochloride with salicylaldehyde and its C-5 derivatives, provided the diastereomeric thiazolidine derivatives 1 and 2 . The resulting amino function was acylated to afford the amides 3 and 4. Cyclization of the latter led to the 2,3-dihydro-11bH-thiazolo[3,2-d]-[1,4]benzoxazepin-5-(6H)ones 5 and 6.

An hypothesis is given for the formation of the [3,2-b] system in one of these reactions and the [2,3-c] system in the other. Structure proof was accomplished by an unequivocal synthesis of one of the [2,3-c] derivatives.
