Reactions of Cyanomethanesulfonamides with Aldehydes and Synthesis of 2-Benzyl-2,3-dihydrobenzopyrano[3,2-e] [1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-Dioxides

Reactions of cyanomethanesulfonamides with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of AcOH and piperidine produced the addition products, the 1-cyano-2-arylethenesulfonamides, whereas reactions with benzonitrile yielded the 2-amino-1-cyano-2-phenylethenesulfonamides only when done in THF with BuLi. No addition products were isolated from the analogue reactions with 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (salicylaldehyde). Instead, we obtained 2-imino-2H-chromene-3-sulfonamides with good to excellent yields. These 2H-chromene derivatives allowed a number of transformations, from which the reactions with orthoformates opened an approach to the hitherto unknown benzopyrano[3,2-e] [1,2,4]thiadiazine ring system.     

Synthesis and rearrangements of 7H-pyrrolo[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]-and 7h-pyrrolo[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines

7H-Pyrrolo[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines were synthesized by the reactions of 2-ethoxymethyleneamino-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitriles with acid hydrazides and by the reactions of aminoiminopyrimidines (prepared based on the above-mentioned carbonitriles) with acid chlorides.

Studies on mechanisms of the rearrangement of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines into thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines

Recyclization of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines was studied experimentally and theoretically by B3LYP/6-31G** calculations in the gas phase and in solution (EtOH). The experimentally observed characteristic features of the isomerization (the possibility of the Dimroth rearrangement occurring by the ANRORC mechanism and high energy barriers in acid-catalyzed reactions) were confirmed by quantum chemical calculations. Substituents in the triazole ring were found to play the principal role in the rearrangement. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and reactions of 2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridines

Summary A number of substituted 2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridines was synthesized. 3-(4,5-Dimethyl-2-furyl)propenoic acid (1) was converted to the acid azide2, which in turn was cyclized to give 2,3-dimethyl-5H-furo[3,2-c]pyridine-4-one (3) by heating at 240°C in Dowtherm. The pyridone3 was chlorinated with phosphorus oxychloride to give4, which was reduced with zinc and acetic acid to 2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine (5). Treatment of4 with several secondary heterocyclic amines led to compounds6a–6c. Reaction of pyridone3 with phosphorus pentasulfide rendered the thione7, which was methylated to8a. The 4-methoxy derivative8b was obtained from4 with sodium methoxide. 2,3,5-Trimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine-4-one (9) was obtained by reaction of3 with methyl iodide.Dedicated to Professor Dr.Fritz Sauter on the occasion of his 65th birthday

New Facile Route to Synthesize Furo[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidine and Furo[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine Derivatives

A new facile route for synthesis of 3-(aryl)-8,9-diphenylfuro[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo pyrimidines derivative from the same starting material, 2-amino-4,5-diphenylfuran-3-carbonitrile, has been developed through heterocyclization of the corresponding arylidene-hydrazono-5,6-diphenylfuro[2,3-d]pyrimidine and N-(arylmethylene)-4-imino-5,6-diphenylfuro[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-amine under refluxing condition with acetic anhydride followed by air oxidation. The products were obtained in good yield with an easy workup along with the purification of products by a nonchromatographic method. This general synthetic procedure can be extended to the preparation of a wide range of isomeric triazoles using 2-amino 3-carbonitrile bifunctional derivatives.

Synthesis of 2,3-Dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones by a Michael-type Tandem Reaction

Summary. Although various thiazoles are known in literature for their biological and pharmacological properties only a few multi-step synthesis pathways for the preparation of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidinones have been reported, which are tedious and time-consuming. An alternative synthesis pathway is described, which allows the preparation of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones in a one-step process based on a Michael-type tandem reaction. By heating of 2-thiobarbituric acid with ethyl 4-bromocrotonate in ethanol at 60°C for 2 h, a 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was obtained in 73% yield, whereas carrying out the reaction at room temperature results in the formation of an unstable unsaturated ester. The structures of both, the α,β-unsaturated ester as well as the 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. Additionally, the structure of the 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was investigated by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The described approach offers a significant improvement over previously reported synthesis pathways because it allows the simple preparation of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones with good yields in a one-step reaction.     

Some chemical properties of 2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-one and 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones

We have studied the reaction of 2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-one and 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones with amines, alkylating reagents, and hydrogen peroxide. We have shown that the presence of an aryl substituent at the 2 position of [1,3-thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones has a substantial effect on the direction of the reactions. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 445–452, March, 2006.     

Synthesis of 4-arylcarbamoyl-5-(2-hydroxynaphthylazo)imidazoles and 1-substituted naphtho[2,1-e]imidazo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

The reactions of β-naphthol with 5-diazoimidazoles and imidazolyl-5-diazonium salts containing chemically different carboxamide groups in position 4 were studied. Heterocyclization of 4-arylcarbamoyl-5-(2-hydroxynaphthylazo)imidazoles formed in these reactions was investigated. The presence of the NH fragment in the amide group prevents this process, the reaction giving instead 3-substituted 3,7-dihydroimidazo[4,5-d][1,2,3]triazin-4-ones, which is due to reversibility of C-azo coupling. Methods for modification of 1-ethoxycarbonyl group in the naphtho[2,1-e]imidazo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine system were developed and used to prepare substituted carboxamides inaccessible by other routes.

Synthesis and opening of the thiadiazine ring in 6,7-dihydro-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines

A reaction of 3-benzylthiotriazole-4-amines with aromatic aldehydes leads to the formation of 6,7-dihydro-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines. A dihydrothiadiazine ring opening along the N-N bond occurs by the action of strong bases. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1249–1252, June, 2008.
