Synthesis and Structure of Quaternary Salts Derived from 2-Anilino- and 2-Benzylamino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine

Substituted phenacyl bromides react with 2-anilino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine at the exocyclic nitrogen atom and with 2-benzylamino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine at the nitrogen atom in the ring. The structure of the reaction intermediates was elucidated, and their cyclization into 1-benzyl-2-aryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazinium bromides was performed.     

Synthesis and characterization of [2-(2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinyl)] tellurenyl chloride

The synthesis and characterization of the first examples of two tellurium compounds based on 2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine substrate are described. Intramolecular Te?N interaction in [2-(2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinyl)] tellurenyl chloride is established by single X-ray crystallography.     

Polymerizaton of Salts of 2-Alkenyl-2-Oxazolines and Their Homologs

The present paper describes a new type of polymerization of 2-vinyl-2-oxazoline and 2-vinyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine and their salts. When these two imino ether monomers are allowed to react with Meerwein reagents or super acid esters, N-alkylation takes place first, followed by polymerization through the opening of vinyl groups to give poly [(2-oxazolinium-2-yl)ethylene] and poly [(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinium-2-yl)ethylene], respectively. With the corresponding 2-isopropenyl homologs, 2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline and 2-isopropenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine, stable N-alkylated salts are obtained, which were subjected to radical and base-catalyzed polymerizations. From the above results the reactivities of the salts are considered in terms of their ring size and the substituents on the olefinic functions.     

The reaction of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanedione with o-aminophenols,o-aminothiophenol and with aliphatic 2- and 3-hydroxy- and -mercaptoamines

Studies of the reaction of the dione dimer of dimethylketene ( 1 ) with a series of o-aminophenols and with o-aminothiophenol have been carried out. These reactions give 2-[2-(2,4-dimethyl-3-oxopentyl)]benzoxazoles and -benzothiazole, respectively. Aliphatic 2- and 3-hydroxy- and 2- and 3-mercaptoamines yield 2-substituted 2-oxazolines, 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazines, 2-thiazolines and 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazines.     

Expected and unexpected reactions of 1,3-benzothiazine derivatives, II. Formation of isomeric 5,6-dihydro-1,5-benzothiazocines

A method for the synthesis of medium-sized 1,5-benzothiazocines by ring enlargement of 1,3-benzothiazines has been developed. When N-alkyl-1,3-benzothiazines were reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in acetonitrile at room temperature, regioisomeric 5,6-dihydro-2H-1,5-benzothiazocines and 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,5-benzothiazocines were obtained as novel ring systems. Dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate could attack either the nitrogen or the sulfur atom of the thiazines. NMR spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic investigations confirmed the structures of the products.     

4-Substituted-3,4-dihydro-3-methyl-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones. III (2,3). Solvolytic-reductive transformation of 4-(2-keto)-benzoxazin-2-ones into oxazin-2-ones

A series of 4-(2-keto-substituted)-3,4-dihydro-3-methyl-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones 1 (Table I) was synthesized by condensation of 3-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones 4 with ketones 5 having active alpha hydrogens. In the presence of alcoholic potassium borohydride, compounds 1 underwent reductive transacylation to give 1,3-oxazin-2-one derivatives 3 (Table III, a,b,c). When the other side of the ketone possessed substituents other than hydrogen, there were always also normal reduction products, i.e., secondary alcohols 2 (Table II) in addition to 3.     

Synthesis of putative radioprotectors on the basis of cyclic isotioureas derivatives

The present work deals with the synthesis of sixteen compounds with putative inhibiting activity towards NO-synthase on the basis of 2-amino-2-thiazoline and 2-amino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine.     

New heterocyclic structures. [1,3]Thiazino[3,2-a]purine and [1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-d][1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]pyrimidine

Derivatives of two new molecular structures, namely, [1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]purine and [1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-d]-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]pyrimidine, were synthesized together with other heterocyclic compounds. Retrosynthetic analysis of their molecular skeletons suggested a simple way of obtaining 3,4-dihydro-7,8-diamino-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-6-one, which is a useful intermediate for their synthesis. This intermediate and the thiazole homologue were obtained directly by reaction of 5,6-diamino-2,3-dihydro-2-thioxo-4(lH)-pyrimidi-none with 1,3- or 1,2-dibromoalkane, respectively.     

Highly diastereoselective cycloaddition reactions of variously substituted 1-thia- and 1-thia-3-aza-buta-1,3-dienes. Synthesis of enantiomerically pure 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazines and 3,4-dihydro-2H-thiopyrans

The cycloaddition of 2- or 2,3-substituted 1-thia- and 1-thia-3-aza-4-dimethylamino-buta-1,3-dienes with various dienophiles in the presence of a Lewis acid provides a rapid and diastereoselective access to the 3,4-dihydro-2H-thiopyran and 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazine backbones. The generally observed trans relationship between the two newly created strereogenic centres was demonstrated to be the expression of a thermodynamic control of the reaction. The use of chiral dienophile derived from chiral oxazolidin-2-ones allowed us to prepare enantiopure 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazines and 3,4-dihydro-2H-thiopyrans. In the asymmetric synthetic process the chiral auxiliary removal step was best accomplished in the presence of samarium triflate in methanol.     

Reaction of methyl 1-bromocyclopentane- and 1-bromocyclohexanecarboxylates with zinc and 2-arylmethylidene-2,3-dihydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-inden-1-ones or 2-arylmethylidene-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Methyl 1-bromocyclopentanecarboxylate and methyl 1-bromocyclohexanecarboxylate reacted with zinc and 2-arylmethylidene-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ones or 2-arylmethylidene-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-ones to give 4′-aryl-4′,5′-dihydro-2′H-spiro[cyclopentane(cyclohexane)-1,3′-indeno[1,2-b]pyran]-2′-ones or 4-aryl-5,6-dihydrospiro[benzo[h]chromene-3,1′-cyclopentane(cyclohexane)]-2(4H)-ones, respectively.     

Halogenation of Imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-one Derivatives

Chlorination and bromination of 2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one and its N-methyl-substituted derivatives in acetic acid at 90–95°C leads to formation of the corresponding 5,6-dichloro(dibromo)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones. Iodination of the same substrates with ICl under analogous conditions yields 6-iodo derivatives. Chlorination of 6-iodo-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one is accompanied by replacement of the iodine atom by chlorine with formation of 5,6-dichloro-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one. Bromination of 6-bromo- and 6-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones gives 5,6-dibromo- and 5-bromo-6-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, respectively.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 4, 2005, pp. 586–589.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Yutilov, Lopatinskaya, Smolyar, Gres’ko.     

Efficient Synthesis of New Pyrimido[5′,4′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H)-triones via the Tandem Intramolecular Pinner–Dimroth Rearrangement,and Their Antibacterial Activity

Synthesis of new 8-alkyl-5-aryl-1,3-dimethyl-5,7-dihydro-2H-pyrimido[5′,4′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]- pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H)-triones by the high yield reaction of 7-amino-5-aryl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,4,5- tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carbonitriles with aliphatic carboxylic acids in the presence of POCl3 is presented. It is probable that synthesis of these new products proceeds via the tandem intramolecular Pinner–Dimroth rearrangement. The products are characterized by FT-IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectra and evaluated for their antibacterial activity against gram +ve bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis) and gram–ve bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) using the disc diffusion method.

     

Synthesis with 1,2-Oxazines. II. Synthesis and Properties of 2,3-dimethyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxaziniumiodide

Preparation of 2,3-Dimethyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxaziniumiodide was achieved by N-alkylation of 3-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxazine. Reactions with C-nucleophiles led to the corresponding N-methyl-perhydro-1,2-oxazine derivatives. Reaction with sodium hydride in triglyme led to 3-methyl-4-aza-1,3-pentadiene.     

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-one derivatives

Nitration of 1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one and its N-methyl derivatives at 0–5°C and 60°C gives 5-nitro-and 5,6-dinitro-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, respectively. The latter can also be obtained by nitration of 5-mononitro derivatives under similar conditions. The nitration of 6-chloro-and 6-bromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones and their N-methyl-substituted analogs leads to the formation of the corresponding 6-chloro(bromo)-5-nitro compounds. The same products are formed in the nitration of 5,6-dichloro-and 5,6-dibromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones. In this case, the process involves replacement of the halogen atom in position 5 of the pyridine fragment by nitro group. The nitration of 6-bromo-5-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one is accompanied by oxidation of the 5-methyl group to carboxy.

A series of 3,4-Dihydro-2-oxo-(3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-yl)ureas (II, Table I) and 3,4-dihydro-2-oxo-(3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-yl)thioureas (Table II) was prepared by treating 3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-3-substituted-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-2-ones with ureas and thioureas, respectively. In the presence of alcoholic alkali these compounds underwent transacylation to dihydro-6-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-(1H,2H)diones (Table III) and their 4-thio analogues (Table IV).     

Unexpected Direction of Iodocyclization of 3-Allylthio-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole

The reaction of 3-allylthio-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole with iodine to give a mixture of 5,6-dihydro-5-iodomethyl-3-phenyl[1,3]thiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazole, 6,7-dihydro-6-iodo-3-phenyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3]thiazine, 5,6-dihydro-6-iodomethyl-2-phenyl[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole, and 6,7-dihydro-6-iodo-2-phenyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazine has been studied. The structure of the products obtained was established using ¹H NMR spectroscopy of their dehydriodination products.     

Cyclic transformations of 5-aryl(or benzyl)-3-(2-bromoethyl- 1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones into 1-aminoimidazolidin-2-one and 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazine derivatives

5-Aryl(or benzyl)-3-(2-bromoethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones 3 have been prepared. They were reacted with secondary alkylamines without any change of the heterocycle to give amino derivatives 6 , but with primary alkylamines, cyclic transformation occurred to give 1-acylamino-3-alkylimidazolidin-2-ones 7 . In the presence of sodium alcoholate, bromo compounds 3 were transformed into 2-aryl(or benzyl)-4-alkoxycarbonyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazines 9 .     

Preparation of 2-Alkyl- and 2-Acylpropenals from 5-(Trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)-4H-1,3-dioxin: A Versatile Acrolein α-Cation Synthon

5-(Trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)-4H-1,3-dioxin (3) participates in a variety of nucleophilic substitution reactions with cuprate reagents or in palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to provide 5-substituted-4H-1,3-dioxins 5. Upon thermolysis, these compounds undergo facile retrocycloaddition reactions to generate the corresponding 2-substituted acroleins which, if necessary, can be trapped in situ with dienes or heterodienophiles. In particular, the heretofore unknown 2-acylacroleins can be generated using this methodology and trapped with enol ethers to afford 5-acyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans (6g,h), a substructural unit common to many natural products.     

Ringtransformationen von 3-substituiertem 5-Trifluormethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-on mit Nucleophilen

Ring Transformations of 3-Substituted 5-Trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one with Nucleophiles The 3-chlormethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolone 3 undergoes a ring transformation to 3-acylated 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 4 with many nucleophiles. Upon formal replacement of the chloromethyl group in the 3-position of 3 by an extended bromoalkyl chain (→9a-c) , the reaction with nucleophiles yields 4-acylated 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazines 10 (from 9a ), 4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothiadiazepines 13 (from 9b ) and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazocines 14 (from 9c ) by ring enlargement. The 3-propargyl-thiadiazolone 17 rearranges with nucleophiles to 4-acylated 6-methylidene-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazines 18 . The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy.
