Efficient methods have been developed for obtaining precursors of stable carbenes, viz. 5-unsubstituted 3,4-diaryl-1,2,4-triazoles and 3,3′- or 4,4′-bridge linked bis-1,2,4-triazoles, by the recyclization of 5-unsubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles or p-phenylenebis-1,3,4-oxadiazole with anilines or aromatic diamines in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid or with aniline hydrochlorides in pyridine. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1026–1032, July, 2005.     

Synthesis of Biologically Relevant 1,2,3- and 1,3,4-Triazoles: From Classical Pathway to Green Chemistry

Green Chemistry has become in the last two decades an increasing part of research interest. Nonconventional «green» sources for chemical reactions include micro-wave, mechanical mixing, visible light and ultrasound. 1,2,3-triazoles have important applications in pharmaceutical chemistry while their 1,2,4 counterparts are developed to a lesser extent. In the review presented here we will focus on synthesis of 1,2,3 and 1,2,4-triazole systems by means of classical and « green chemistry » conditions involving ultrasound chemistry and mechanochemistry. The focus will be on compounds/scaffolds that possess biological/pharmacophoric properties. Finally, we will also present the formal cycloreversion of 1,2,3-triazole compounds under mechanical forces and its potential use in biological systems.     

Reaction Of 3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazolederivatives with Alkylating Agents. 1. Alkylation in the Presence of Alkali

Alkylation of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole and 5-methyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole with dialkyl sulfates or alkyl halides in the presence of alkali proceeds with a low selectivity for the alkylating agent with the formation of two regioisomers at the N₍₁₎ and N₍₂₎ atoms of the heterocycle. Depending on the reaction conditions the proportion of the N₍₂₎ isomer was 14.6-33.8%. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1020–1025, July, 2005.     

Synthesis of 1,3,5-Trisubstituted 1H-1,2,4-Triazoles Containing Hetaryl Fragments

N¹-Phenyl- and N¹-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridyl)amidrazones have been synthesized by the reaction of imino esters of heterocyclic acids with phenyl- or (3,5-dichloro-2-pyridyl)hydrazine. Acylation of the products with acid chlorides leads to 1-phenyl- and 1-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridyl)-3-hetaryl-5-R²-1H-1,2,4-triazoles. Compounds of this type are also formed by the condensation of N-acylimino esters of heterocyclic acids with phenyl- or (3,5-dichloro-2-pyridyl)hydrazine.     

Reactions of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole derivatives with alkylating agents. 5. Selective synthesis of 1,4-dialkyl-and 1,4,5-trialkyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazolium salts from 1-alkyl-and 4,5-dialkyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles and dialkyl sulfates

Interaction of N₍₁₎-alkyl-substituted 3-nitro-5-R-1,2,4-triazoles with dialkyl sulphates proceeds selectively and results in the respective salts of 1,4-dialkyl-, 1,4,5-trialkyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoliums. The reaction of N₍₄₎-alkyl-substituted 3-nitro-5-R-1,2,4-triazoles yields the mixtures of the salts of 1,4-dialkyl-, 1,4,5-trialkyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoliums and 1,4-dialkyl-, 1,3,4-trialkyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones with predominance of quaternary salts. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 927–934, June, 2007.     

Trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMSNCS): an efficient reagent for the one-pot synthesis of mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles

A mild, convenient, and efficient one-pot synthesis of mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles is described. Various hydrazides efficiently reacted with trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMSNCS) under basic condition to give mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles in high yields.     

New approaches to synthesis of tris[1,2,4]triazolo[1,3,5]triazines

Thermal cyclization of 3-R-5-chloro-1,2,4-triazoles (R = Cl, Ph) afforded 2,6,10-tri-R- tris[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:1′,5′c:1″,5″-e][1,3,5]triazines 5 (R = Ph) and 7 (R = Cl). These compounds are first representatives of this class of heterocycles, whose structures were unambiguously established. Treatment of these compounds with nucleophiles (H₂O/NaOH, NH₃) results in the triazine ring opening to give compounds consisting of three 1,2,4-triazole rings linked in a chain. For example, treatment of cyclic compound 5 with aqueous alkali affords 3-phenyl-1-3-phenyl-1-(3-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one. Treatment of 3,7,11-triphenyltris[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a:4′,3′c:4″,3″-e][1,3,5]triazine (2) with HCl/SbCl₅ leads to the triazine ring opening giving rise to 5-(3-chloro-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)-3-phenyl-4-(5-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,2,4-triazole. Thermal cyclization of the latter produces 3,7,10-triphenyltris[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:4′,3′c:4″,3″-e][1,3,5]triazine (13). Thermolysis of both cyclic compound 2 and cyclic compound 13 is accompanied by the Dimroth rearrangement to yield 3,6,10-triphenyl-tris[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:1′, 5′-c:4″,3″-e][1,3,5]triazine (14). Compounds 13 and 14 are the first representatives of cyclic compounds with this skeleton. ¹³C NMR spectroscopy allows the determination of the isomer type in a series of tris[1,2,4]triazolo[1,3,5]triazines.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Acyl and Sulfonyl Derivatives of 3,5-Diamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles

3-Acylamino-5-amino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles are formed regioselectively on acylating 3,5-diamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles with an equimolar amount of anhydrides, carboxylic acid chlorides, and sulfonyl chlorides. With an excess of anhydride and carboxylic acid chloride 3,5-diacylamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles are formed. 3-Acylamino-5-amino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles do not interact with sulfonyl chlorides. The higher reactivity of the 3-amino group towards acylating agents is determined by electronic and not steric factors. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1342–1350, September, 2005.     

Structures and Properties of 1,2,3-Triazoles and 1,2,4-Triazoles

1 INTRODUCTION In the energetic material field, extensive attention was paid to insensitive compounds possessing not only high energetic density but also good stability. Previous studies[1] have shown that some small mo- lecular compounds such as azoles are good candi- dates for excellent explosives. For example, explo- sives containing triazole rings have the advantages of less molecular weight, high nitrogen content and density, good thermal stability, low impact sensiti- vity and large …     

ESR and polarography of nitroazoles. 7. Anion-radicals of isomers of N-methyl-C-nitro-1,2,4-triazole

The anion-radicals of N-methyl-substituted 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole have been studied by polarography, ESR, and quantum-chemical methods. The difference in electrochemical behavior of the N-methyl isomers of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole has been analyzed. The spin distributions in their anion-radicals have been investigated by quantum-chemical methods. The theoretical data obtained are in poor agreement with experiment. By varying the structural characteristics of the anion-radicals internal geometric parameters have been separated out which prove to have the greatest effect on spin distributions. Geometric structures were established for the investigated isomers by minimizing the functional describing the disagreement of the theoretical and experimental spin distributions on the magnetic nuclei. The calculated hyperfine structure constants for the magnetically active nuclei for the structures obtained were in good agreement with experiment. The influence of solvation effects on the electronic structure parameters of the nitrotriazole anion-radicals has been investigated. Hydrated complexes containing four molecules of water proved to be the most stable. Structural deformation of the solvated anion-radicals occurs in the same direction as on minimizing the functional.For part 6 see [1].Irkutsk Institute of Chemistry, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Irkutsk 664033, Russia; e-mail: vti@irioch.irk.ru.

Synthesis and Antibacterial Activity of Some New Derivatives of Thiosemicarbazide and 1,2,4-Triazole

Abstract

In a reaction of hydrazides of cyclohexylacetic acid 1 and phenylacetic acid 2 with isothiocyanates, respective thiosemicarbazide derivatives 3–18 were obtained. Further cyclization with 2% NaOH led to the formation of 5-(cyclohexylmethyl/benzyl)-4-substituted-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones 19–34. Structures of all new products were confirmed by analytical and spectroscopic methods. All compounds were screened for their in vitro activity against some species of bacteria and fungi.

Alkylation of acyl and sulfonyl derivatives of 3,5-diamino-1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole

Alkylation of 3-acylamino-, 5-amino-1-phenyl-3-tosylamino-1,2,4-triazoles and 3,5-diacetylamino-1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole in the presence of an equimolar amount of sodium methylate in DMSO occurs regioselectively at the amide (sulfamide) group nitrogen atom. The benzylation of 3-acetylamino-5-amino-1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole with excess base and benzyl chloride also alkylates the amino group at position 5. Alkylamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles can be conveniently prepared by alkylation of the corresponding acetylamino-1,2,4-triazoles in the presence of base and subsequent acid hydrolysis of the N-acetyl-N-alkyl derivatives.

From imidates to vinyl-1,2,4-triazoles: Synthesis,mechanistic aspects and first issues of their reactivity

The reaction of variously substituted acylimidates with hydrazine derivatives represents an efficient and easy to set synthetic entry towards 5-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole derivatives. The construction of the triazole ring allows the installation of variety of substituent combination at the N(1), C(3) and C(5) positions of the five-membered heterocycle in good to high yields. The method reveals selective towards 5-vinyl-1,2,4-triazoles avoiding the potential formation of seven- and five-membered side-products as supported by theoretical calculations and NMR experiments. First lines of Pd-catalyzed arylation of the vinyl fragment towards 5-styryl-1,2,4-triazoles and Cu-catalyzed arylation at the N(1) site are finally described.     

Reactions of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles with alkylating agents. 6*. Alkylation of a neutral heterocycle by alcohols in acid media*

Reaction of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole and 5-methyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole with secondary and tertiary alcohols in conc. H₂SO₄ takes place at the N(2) atom. Alkylation by 2-propanol occurs regioselectively to form the 1-isopropyl-3-nitro-and 1-isopropyl-3-methyl-5-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles. As a consequence of isomerization the alkylation using cyclohexyl or tert-butyl alcohols gives respectively a mixture of regioisomers substituted at atom N(1) (1-cyclohexyl-3-nitro-and 1-cyclohexyl-5-methyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles) and at atom N(2) (5-nitro-1-cyclohexyl-and 1-cyclohexyl-3-methyl-5-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles) and, in the second case, to 1-tert-butyl-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole. * For Communication 5 see [1].

An Energetic Triazolo‐1,2,4‐Triazine and its N‐Oxide

The reaction of 3‐amino‐5‐nitro‐1,2,4‐triazole with nitrous acid produces the corresponding diazonium salt. When the diazonium salt is treated with nitroacetonitrile, a subsequent condensation and cyclization reaction occurres to produced 4‐amino‐3,7‐dinitrotriazolo‐[5,1‐c][1,2,4] triazine (DPX‐26). X‐ray crystallographic analysis shows that the DPX‐26 has a density of 1.86 g cm^?3, while it is calculated to have a heat of formation of 398.3 kJ mol^?1. DPX‐26 is predicted to approach the explosive performance of RDX but displays significantly better safety properties. Oxidation of DPX‐26 using hypofluorous acid produces 4‐amino‐3,7‐dinitrotriazolo‐[5,1‐c][1,2,4] triazine 4‐oxide (DPX‐27), which is also predicted to be a high‐performance material with enhanced safety properties.
