Syntheses of some new azolopyrido‐[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidines

Diethyl 2‐[(ethoxythioxomethyl)amino]‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydrothieno[2,3‐c]‐pyridine‐3,6‐dicarboxylate 2 , prepared from diethyl 2‐isothiocyanato‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydrothieno[2,3‐c]pyridine‐3,6‐dicarboxylate 1 by boiling in anhydrous ethanol, was converted into pyrido[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine derivatives 3, 4 by treatment with hydrazine hydrate. The tetracyclic systems imidazo[1,2‐a]pyrido‐[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine 9 and pyrido[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d][1,3]thiazolo‐[3,2‐a]pyrimidine 10 were synthesized by the reaction of 2 with 1,2‐diaminoethane and aminoethanethiol, respectively. The hydrazino derivative 4 underwent cyclization reactions with orthoesters and nitrous acid to give the corresponding pyrido[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines 5, 6 and pyrido[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[3,2‐e][1,2,3,4]tetrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine 8 , respectively. Moreover, reactions of 3 with cyanogen bromide, N‐carbethoxyhydrazine, carbon disulfide, and ethylchloroformate resulted in the formation of the new pyrido[4′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐d][1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives 12–15 . © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and mass spectral data. The compounds were then evaluated for antimicrobial activities.     

Synthesis of dispiro[oxindole‐pyrrolidine]‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazines by 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition

The 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of an azomethine ylide generated by a decarboxylative route from sarcosine and isatin to 7‐arylmethylidene‐3‐aryl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazin‐6(7H)‐ones afforded novel dispiro[oxindole‐pyrrolidine]‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazines in moderate yields. The structures of the products were determined and characterized thoroughly by NMR, MS, IR, and elemental analysis. The results of experiment indicated that this 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition proceeded with high stereoselectivity and regioselectivity. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).     

Synthesis of a Novel Triheterocyclic Framework via 1,3‐Dipolar Cycloaddition of a Nitrile Oxide with Imidazo[2,1‐b][1,3]thiazole‐3(2H)‐ones

A novel series of (9Z)‐9‐arylmethylidene‐3‐(2,6‐dichlorophenyl)‐5,6‐dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[2′,3′:2,3]imidazo [1,2‐d][1,2,4]oxadiazol‐8(9H)‐one derivatives were prepared in moderate yields by the 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reaction of a nitrile oxide with (2Z)‐2‐arylmethylidene‐5,6‐dihydroimidazo [2,1‐b][1,3]thiazol‐3(2H)‐ones.

The Pseudo‐Michael Reaction of 2‐Hydrazinylidene‐1‐Arylimidazolidines with Diethyl Ethoxymethylenemalonate

The pseudo‐Michael reaction of 2‐hydrazinylidene‐1‐arylimidazolidines with diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate (DEEM) was investigated. The reaction yields the chain adduct, namely diethyl{[2‐(1‐arylimidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)hydrazinyl]methylidene}propanedioates. This is contrary to the pseudo‐Michael reaction of DEEM with 1‐aryl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐imidazol‐2‐amines that does not allow isolation of chain derivatives and leads to cyclic imidazo[1,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives while even at thermodynamic control. At first cyclization of diethyl{[2‐(1‐arylimidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)hydrazinyl]methylidene}propanedioates leads to ethyl 1‐aryl‐5(1H,8H)oxo‐2,3‐dihydro‐imidazo[2,1‐c][1,2,4]triazepine‐6‐carboxylates. 1,5‐Sigmatropic shift, following the cyclization, caused isomerization of 5(1H,8H)oxo‐2,3‐dihydro‐imidazo[2,1‐c][1,2,4]triazepine‐6‐carboxylates to ethyl 1‐aryl‐5(1H)hydroxy‐2,3‐dihydroimidazo[2,1‐c][1,2,4]triazepine‐6‐carboxylates. Presence of both isomers in the reaction product was detected in the NMR spectra. The structure of all the compounds was confirmed with spectroscopic studies (¹H NMR and MS). The structure of diethyl{[2‐(1‐phenylimidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)hydrazinyl]methylidene}propanedioate was also confirmed by X‐ray crystallography. In the addition reaction, thermodynamics and HOMO–LUMO orbitals of the reactants were studied by using quantum chemical calculations.

These reactions were carried out in the presence of potassium carbonate as a base in acetonitrile as a solvent to produce products 3a – n in good‐to‐excellent yield. Pentachloropyridine is doubly electrophilic building blocks for the formation of ring annulated thiazolo[3,2‐a ]pyrimidine and thiazolo[2,3‐b ]quinazoline products.

The structures of the products were determined and characterized thoroughly by NMR, MS, IR, elemental analysis, and X‐ray crystallographic analysis.

Regioselectivity of cyclization of 3-allyl(propargyl)sulfanyl-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]indoles

The interaction of 3-allylsulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole with iodine led to 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[2',3':3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-11-ium pentaiodide with an angular structure, on the basis of which 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo-, 1-methylidene-1,2-di-hydro[1,3]thiazolo, and 1-methyl[1,3]thiazolo derivatives were obtained. The intramolecular cyclization of 3-propargyl(allyl)sulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indoles under the influence of concentrated sulfuric acid led to linear annelated products:3-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b]indole or its 2,3-dihydro derivative.

Synthesis of nitrogen‐containing heterocycles 9. Preparation and carbon‐carbon bond cleavage of spiro[cycloalkane[1′,2′,4′]‐triazolo[1′,5′‐a][1′,3′,5′]triazine] derivatives and related compounds

Diaminomethylenehydrazones of cyclic ketones 1–5 reacted with ethyl N‐cyanoimidate (I) at room temperature or with bis(methylthio)methylenecyanamide (II) under brief heating to give directly the corresponding spiro[cycloalkane[1′,2′,4′]triazolo[1′,5′,‐a][1′,3′‐5′]triazine] derivatives 7–12 in moderate to high yields. Ring‐opening reaction of the spiro[cycloalkanetriazolotriazine] derivatives occurred at the cycloalkane moiety upon heating in solution to give 2‐alkyl‐5‐amino[1,2,4]triazolotriazines 13–16. Diaminomethylenehydrazones 17–19, of hindered acyclic ketones, gave 2‐methyl‐7‐methylthio[1,2,4]‐triazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazines 21–23 by the reaction with II as the main products with apparent loss of 2‐methylpropane from the potential precursor, 2‐tert‐butyl‐2‐methyl‐7‐methylthio[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]‐[1,3,5]triazines 20, in good yields.
