Synthesis of 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles via coupling reaction of diaminomaleonitrile with aromatic diazonium salts

A mild procedure for the preparation of 2-(5-amino-1-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-2-iminoacetonitriles and 2-(5-amino-1-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-2-oxoacetonitriles was achieved by the reaction of diaminomaleonitrile and phenyl/substituted phenyl diazonium chlorides. 4-Nitrophenyl diazonium chloride afforded 2-amino-3-(3-(4-nitrophenyl)triaz-1-en-1-yl)maleonitrile. Triazole iminoacetonitrile and maleonitrile derivatives were reacted further with excess acetone and benzaldehyde with a catalytic amount of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene to yield 5-(5-imino-2,2-dimethyl-2,5-dihydrooxazol-4-yl)-3-aryl-3H-1,2,3-triazol-4-amine and (E)-N-benzylidene-5-(5-imino-2-aryl-2,5-dihydrooxazol-4-yl)-3-aryl-3H-1,2,3-triazol-4-amine, respectively. Two competitive reactions, i.e., nucleophilic substitution and nucleophilic addition, were observed when triazole oxoacetonitrile and maleonitrile derivatives were reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of sodium acetate.     

Methylation of 3-methyl- and 3-phenyl-4-arylhydrazonoisoxazol-5-ones with diazomethane

3-Methyl(or phenyl)-4-arylhydrazonoisoxazol-5-ones on methylation with diazomethane afford 3-methyl(or phenyl)-4-(N-methylarylhydrazono)isoxazol-5-ones and 3-methyl(or phenyl)-5-methoxy-4-arylazoisoxazoles. The latter compounds readily rearrange to 4-methoxycarbonyl-5-methyl(or phenyl)-2-aryl-2H-1,2,3-triazoles.     

Cycloacylation of N-phenyl-N′-R-thioureas with 3-aryl-2-propenoyl chlorides

Cycloalkylation of N-phenyl-N′-R-thiourea with 3-aryl-2-propenoyl chlorides in acetone gives as products 6-aryl-3-phenyl-2-(R-imino)-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one and their hydrochlorides. The same reaction carried out in acetone in the presence of K₂CO₃ leads to the formation of 6-aryl-3-phenyl-2-(R-imino)-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-ones, N-(3-aryl-2-propenoyl)-N-phenylthioureas, 3-aryl-2-propenoylanilides, and phenyl isothiocyanate.     

Synthesis of 2-Aryl-4-(R-sulfanylmethyl)-3-methyl-6,7-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyridazin-7-ones

Bromination of ethyl 1-aryl-4-acetyl-5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates gave ethyl 1-aryl-4-(bromoacetyl)-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-carboxylates which were used to alkylate benzenethiol and heterocyclic thiones at the sulfur atom. Reactions of the resulting S-alkylation products with hydrazine or methylhydrazine involved closure of pyridazine ring to afford 2-aryl-3-methyl-4-[phenyl(or hetaryl)sulfanylmethyl]-6,7-dihydro-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7-ones.     

Five-Membered 2,3-Dioxo Heterocycles: XLV. Thermolysis of 5-Aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the Absence of Other Partners and in the Presence of Carbonyl Compounds

Aroyl(phenyl)ketenes generated by thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones undergo [4+2]-cyclodimerization to 3-aroyl-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2,4-diones. Heating of the latter leads to rearrangement with formation of 4-aroyloxy-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. Thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the presence of carbonyl compounds yields 6-aryl-5-phenyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-ones.     

Reactions of 4-acyl-1-alkoxyaryl-5-aryl-3-hydroxy-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-2-ones with nucleophilic reagents

4-Acetyl-1-alkoxyaryl-5-aryl-3-hydroxy-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-2-ones reacted with amines to give 1-alkoxyaryl-5-aryl-4-(1-R-aminoethylidene)pyrrolidine-2,3-diones. Reactions of amines with 4-benzoyl-substituted analogs involve nucleophilic attack on the C³ atom in the heteroring to produce the corresponding 3-R-amino-1-alkoxyaryl-5-aryl-4-benzoyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-2-ones. Reactions of the title compounds with hydrazine hydrate, regardless on the substituent on C₄, afforded 4-aryl-3-methyl(phenyl)-5-[2(4)-methoxyphenyl]-4,6-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrazol-6-ones.     

Substitution Reactions of Sulchemfonylated Sulfolenes with the Carbanion of Dimethyl Malonate

The reactions of 4-alkyl-4-(phenylsulfonyl)-2-sulfolenes with excess carbanion of dimethyl malonate in refluxing THF have been studied. The substitution reaction takes place at the 3-position via an addition-elimination process so that 3,4-disubstituted 2-sulfolenes are obtained. These products are isomerized to the corresponding3-sulfolenes under basic conditions.     

Synthesis of 5-aryl-3-carbazoyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one. Derivatives and their ring transformation into 5-benzamido-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives

Some 5-aryl-3-carbazoyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives 6 and 9 have been synthesized in two ways. The expected thermal ring transformation into 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles did not occur but, by acid hydrolysis of 5-aryl-3-[3-benzylidene-2-methyl(or phenyl)carbazoyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones 6 , a new ring transformation took place and the corresponding 4-benzamido-1-methyl(or phenyl)-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives 11 were formed. The 4-amino-1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione ( 19 ) has been prepared and its structure was confirmed by some reactions.     

Study of the addition of Grignard reagents to 2-aryl-3H-indol-3-ones

Grignard reagents are added to the carbonyl group of 2-aryl-3H-indol-3-ones to generate 3-alkyl(or phenyl)-2-aryl-3H-indol-3-ols, which are in turn rearranged to yield 2-alkyl(or phenyl)-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ones.     

Five-Membered 2,3-Dioxo Heterocycles: LXXI.* Recyclization of 4,5-Diaroyl-1H-pyrrole-2,3-diones by the Action of Substituted Hydrazines. Crystalline and Molecular Structure of 2-(3-Benzoyl- 1-benzyl-5-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)- 2-oxoacetamide

1-Aryl-4,5-diaroyl-1H-pyrrole-2,3-diones reacted with benzyl- and phenylhydrazines to give N-aryl-2-(5-aryl-3-aroyl-1-benzyl(phenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2-oxoacetamides whose structure was proved by X-ray analysis.     

Dialkylative Cyclization Reactions of 3-(Phenylthio)-3-Sulfolenes

3-(Phenylthio)-3-sulfolene (4) underwent bridged dialkylative cyclization with 2-methylene-1,3-diiodopropane to give the bridged bicyclic 3-sulfolene 23, and spirodialkylation with 1,4-diiodobutane and 1,5-diiodopentane to give the spiro bicyclic 3-sulfolenes 15 as the major product. The reaction of 4 with 1,3-diiodopropane led to the fused bicyclic 2-sulfolene 12. 3-(Phenylthio)-3-sulfolenes bearing an ω-iodoalkyl group at the C-2 position gave the fused bicyclic 2-sulfolenes 28 and/or the spiro bicyclic 3-sulfolene 29 depending on the chain length.     

Regioselective arylation of 3-bromopyridine

The addition of aryl Grignard reagents to the 1-phenoxycarbonyl salt of 3-bromopyridine affords 2-aryl-5-bromo-1-phenoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydropyridines and 4-aryl-3-bromo-1-phenoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridines. The crude dihydropyridines were aromatized with o-chloranil in refluxing toluene to give 4- and 6-aryl-3-bromopyridines. The regioselectivity of this two-step process, 6- vs. 4-substitution, was examined and found to be dependent upon the structure of the Grignard reagent. Unhindered aryl Grignard reagents, e.g., phenyl and 2-naphthyl, gave mainly 6-aryl-3-bromopyridines (49-52%) along with 9% of the 4-substituted isomer and less than 4% of the 2-aryl-3-bromopyridine. Hindered aryl Grignard reagents, e.g., o-tolyl and 1-naphthyl, are less regioselective. When a catalytic amount of cuprous iodide is present during the Grignard reaction, nearly exclusive 1,4-addition results. The crude 4-aryl-3-bromo-1,4-dihydropyridines were aromatized with p-chloranil to provide 4-aryl-3-bromopyridines in good yield and high isomeric purity. The sequential use of the cuprous iodide-catalyzed Grignard reaction and the “normal” Grignard reaction provided a regiospeci-fic synthesis of 3-bromo-6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-phenylpyridine from 3-bromopyridine.

The alkylation of aryl 3-oxopropanedithioate with α-haloketones under different reaction conditions afforded substituted aryl[2-(methylsulfanyl)-4-phenyl-3-thienyl]methanones and [3-aryl-5-(methylsulfanyl)-2-thienyl](phenyl)methanones. The same strategy was extended to 3-amino-1-aryl-3-thioxo-1-propanones to afford aryl[2-amino-4-phenyl-3-thienyl]methanones and ethyl 3-phenyl-5-piperidino-2-thiophene carboxylate.
