Synthesis and Transformations of 3-Ethoxycarbonyl-2-(N-R-thioureido)thiophenes

3-Ethoxycarbonyl-2-(N-R-thioureido)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophenes were obtained by the reaction of 2-amino-3-ethoxycarbonyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene with isothiocyanates and of 3-ethoxycarbonyl-2-isothiocyanato-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene with primary and secondary amines.

Synthesis and reactions of 3-cyano-6-methoxymethyl-4-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione

Nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom in 2-chloro-3-cyano-6-methoxymethyl-4-methylpyridine by mercapto group produces the corresponding 2(1H)-pyridinethione, alkylation of which by halogenated compounds in the presence of KOH proceeds regioselectively to form S-alkyl derivatives. Thorpe—Ziegler cyclization of S-alkyl derivatives, which contain an active methylene group, yields new 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]-pyridines.Kuban State Technological University, Krasnodar 350072, Russia, and N.

Synthesis of condensed structures from 3-cyano-2-pyridylacrylic acids

Ammonolysis of the methyl esters of trans--(3-cyano-2-pyridyl)acrylic (I) and trans--(6-methyl-3-cyano-2-pyridyl)acrylic (II) acids gave the amides of these acids. The addition of bromine, diazomethane, and hydrogen to the double bond of cis- and trans-acids I and II is described. Hydrogenation of the methyl esters of trans-acids I and II over Raneynickel at room temperature and atmospheric pressure occurs with intramolecular cyclization to two-ring lactams — 7-oxo-5, 6,8,9-tetrahydropyrid[3,2-c]azepine and 2-methyl-7-oxo-5,6,8,9-tetrahydropyrid[3,2-c]azepine. Under the conditons of acid hydrolysis of acids I and II the elements of water add to the nitrile group with intramolecular cyclization to give, respectively, 3-carboxymethyl-1-oxo-2,3-dihydrofuro [4,3-b]pyridine and 5-methyl-3-carboxymethyl-1-oxo-2,3-dihydrofuro[4,3-b]pyridine, whereas refluxing these acids with aqueous sodium hydroxide gives two-ring lactams — 3-carboxymethyl-1-oxo-2, 3-dihydropyrrolo[4,3-b]pyridine and its 5-methyl homolog. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by the UV, IR, PMR, and mass spectra.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 63–69, January, 1978.

Novel 5,6-bis-(4-substitutedphenyl)-2H(3)-pyridazinones: Synthesis and reactions

A series of 5,6-bis(4-substitutedphenyl)-2H(3)-pyridazinones 2a–f have been synthesized from the condensation of the corresponding benzil monohydrazones 1 either with ethyl cyanoacetate or diethyl malonate in ethanol. The synthesized pyridazinones were converted to the corresponding 3-chloro derivatives 3a–f by the action of phosphoryl chloride. Reaction of the latter halogenated pyridazines with various aromatic amines led to the formation of new 3-aminoaryl pyridazines (4) in moderate yield. The structures of all new compounds 2b,c,e,f, 3b–e, 4 were fully identified by the analysis of their ¹H and ¹³C NMR and mass spectra. Some of these synthetic heterocyclic compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities but they were almost negative.
