Nucleophilic substitution and cyclization reactions involving quaternized 3-dimethylaminomethyl derivatives of 3,4-bis(indol-l-yl)maleimide and 3-(indol-l-yl)-4-(indolin-l-yl)maleimide

A dialkylaminomethylation reaction (the Mannich reaction) of 3,4-bis(indol-l-yl)-maleimides and 3-(indol-l-yl)-4-(indolin-l-yl)maleimides leads to mono- and di(dimethyl-amino) derivatives at position 3 of one or two indole rings. A series of 3,4-bis(indol-l-yl)-maleimides and 3-(indol-l-yl)-4-(indolin-l-yl)maleimides containing ω-hydroxyalkyloxy-methyl substituents at position 3 of the indole ring was obtained by the reaction of iodomethyl-ates of these compounds with ethylene glycol and other 6h,ω-alkanediols. The reaction of quaternary salts of bis(3-dimethylaminomethylindol-l-yl)maleimides with 6h,ω-alkanediols resulted in the isolation of 3,4-bis(3-ω-hydroxyalkyloxymethylindol-l-yl)maleimides. Upon heating iodomethylate of 3-(3-dimethylaminoindol-l-yl)-4-(indolin-l-yl)maleimide in pyridine, 5,6-dihydro-10-methyl-H-indolo[l′,7a′,7′:4,5,6]pyrrolo[3′,4′:2,3]-[l,4]diazepino[l,7-a]-indole-l,3(2H)-dione was obtained due to the intramolecular alkylation and formation of the bond between position 2 of the indole and position 7 of the indoline rings.     

Hydrolysis of 7,7-Substituted Derivatives of 3-tert-Butyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thiazolo-[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazin-6(7H)-one

Alkaline hydrolysis of 3-tert-butyl-7,7-bis(hydroxymethyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-thiazolo[3,2-a][1,3,5]-triazin-6(7H)-one can occur in three directions: with cleavage of the tetrahydrotriazine ring, with cleavage of the thiazolidine ring, and also with opening of both rings. Depending on the process conditions, either the hydrolysis product corresponding to the first direction or the hydrolytic decomposition products corresponding to the second and third directions can be obtained in preparative quantities. Hydrolysis of 3,3′-di-tert-butyl-3′,4′-dihydro-2′ H-spiro[(perhydro-1,3-oxazine)-5,7′-thiazolo[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazin]-6′-one in (NH₄)₂CO₃ solution occurs in two steps: in the first step, cleavage of the tetrahydrotriazine ring occurs; and in the second step, opening of the perhydrooxazine ring occurs. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1089–1097, July, 2005.

Summary.  The structure of the dehydrogenation product 1′,3a′-dihydro-3′-((1,3-dioxoindan-2-ylidene)-phenyl-methyl)-5′-phenyl-spiro-(indan-2,1′-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole)-1,3,4′,6′-(5′H, 6a′H)-tetrone derived from the cycloadducts (±)-(3a′S,6a′R)-1′,3a′-dihydro-3′-((R)-α-(1,3-dioxoindanyl)-benzyl)-5′-phenyl-spiro-(indan-2,1′-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole)-1,3,4′,6′(5H,6a′H)-tetrone and/or (±)-(3a′S,6a′R)-1′,3a′-dihydro-3′-((S)-α-(1,3-dioxoindanyl)-benzyl)-5′-phenyl-spiro-(indan-2,1′-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole)-1,3,4′,6′(5H,6a′H)-tetrone, which were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-phenylmaleimide to 2-((2-(1,3-dioxoindan-2-yl)-2-phenyl-ethenyl)-imino)-indan-1,3-dione, was determined by X-ray analysis. Crystal data (CCD, 180 K): rhombohedral, R&3macr;;, a = 34.0871(7), c = 13.9358(5) ?, Z = 18; the structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R(F, I ≥ 3σ(I)) = 0.053. The molecule contains a central folded ring system of two cis-fused 5-membered heterocyclic rings; each ring is nearly planar, and the angle between the rings amounts to 59.0°. Dynamic ¹H NMR spectroscopy of the product revealed an exchange process caused by restricted rotation of the double bonded 1,3-indandione moiety and the phenyl group about the C_sp2-C_sp2 single-bonds. Molecular modeling and complete lineshape analysis indicated a four site exchange process for which free energies of activation and free energies could be established. ΔG ^‡ values for the barriers of rotation are in the range of 57–59 kJ · mol^− 1 at 273 K, which is unusually high for an unsubstituted phenyl group. Received May 3, 2001.

The 1,3-dipolar intermediates generated by addition of isoquinoline, to dialkyl acetylenedicaboxylates are trapped by N-alkylisatins to produce dialkyl 1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-1-alkylspiro[3H-indol-3,2′-[2H,11bH][1,3]oxazino[2,3-a]isoquinoline]-3′,4′-dicarboxylates in excellent yields. The reaction of isoquinoline, quinoline, or pyridine with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of ninhydrin led to dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,2′-[2H,11bH][1,3]oxazino[2,3-a]isoquinoline]-3′,4′-dicarboxylate, dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,3′[3H,4aH][1,3]oxazino[3,2-a]quinoline]-1,2-dicarboxylate, or dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,2′-[2H,9aH]pyrido[2,1-b][1,3]oxazino]-3,4-dicarboxylate.     

Some condensations of methyl 4-acetylphenylcarbamate

Condensation of methyl 4-acetylphenylcarbamate with isatin in the presence of diethylamine afforded methyl 4-[(3-hydroxy-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetyl]phenylcarbamate which was converted into the corresponding chalcone on heating in glacial acetic acid in the presence of hydrochloric acid. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition to that chalcone of azomethine ylide generated from 2-phenacylisoquinolinium bromide by the action of triethylamine gave methyl 4-(3′-benzoyl-2-oxo-1′,2,2′,3,3′,10b′-hexahydro-1H-spiro-[indole-3,1′-pyrrolo[1,2-a]isoquinolin]-2′-ylcarbonyl)phenylcarbamate. Condensation of 2-hydroxy- and 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehydes with methyl 4-acetylphenylcarbamate in the presence of gaseous hydrogen chloride resulted in the formation of chromenium salts with a methoxycarbonylaminophenyl fragment on the C² atom in the heteroring.
