Oxidation and reduction of some derivatives of benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole

In the reduction of 4-hydroxy-7-phenylazobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and of 4-hydroxy-7-nitro-benzo-2,1, 3-thiadiazole with sodium hydrosulfite, 7-amino-4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole is obtained. The reduction of 4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole leads to 2,3-diaminophenol which forms 5-hydroxyquinoxaline with the bisulfite derivative of glyoxal. The oxidation of 4-hydroxy- and 4-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles with potassium dichromate in an acid medium has yielded 4,7-dioxo-4,7-dihydrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole, which has been converted into 4,7-dihydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and 4,7-di(hydroxyimino)-4,7-dihydrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsikliches-kikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 926–929, July, 1973.     

Oxidation of halohydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles with nitric acid

4,5-Dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole has been synthesized. Its structure was proven by conversion to the known 4,5-dioximinobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and to 2,1,3-thiadiazolo[4,5-a]phenazine, and by reduction to 4,5-dihydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. Oxidation of 5,6-dichloro-4,7-dihydroxy- and 5,7-dichloro-4-hydroxy-benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles forms 5,6-dichloro-4,7-dihydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole, of known structure, and 7-chloro-4,5-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole; the latter by reaction with ortho-phenylene diamine is converted to 4-chloro-2,1,3-thiadiazolo[4,5-a]phenazine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 850–852, June, 1987.     

Benzo[1,2‐c:3,4‐c']bis[1,2,5]selenadiazole, [1,2,5]selenadiazolo‐[3,4‐e]‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole,furazanobenzo‐2,1,3‐thiadiazole,furazanobenzo‐2,1,3‐selenadiazole and related heterocyclic systems

The first synthesis of benzo[1,2‐c:3,4‐c']bis[1,2,5]selenadiazole has been developed starting from commercially available 4‐nitrobenzo‐2,1,3‐selenadiazole. Improved syntheses of the related heterocycles [1,2,5]selenadiazolo[3,4‐e]‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole, furazanobenzo‐2,1,3‐thiadiazole and furazanobenzo‐2,1,3‐selenadiazole are also reported.     

Studies in the field of 2,1,3-thia- and selenadiazoles

The reaction of benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole with hydroxylamine sulfate in concentrated sulfuric acid at 150° C for 1–10 hr has been studied. It has been shown that under these conditions mixtures of different amounts of 4- and 5-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles are formed.For part LII, see [1].     

Fries reaction and dakin rearrangement in benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles

The Fries rearrangement of 4- and 5-acetoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles has given 4-hydroxy-7-acetyl- and 5-hydroxy-4-acetylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles, which on oxidation afford mixtures of 5-chloro-4,7-dioxo- and 5,6-dichloro-4,7-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and of 6-chloro-4,5-dioxo- and 6,7-dichloro-4,5-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. Reaction of 6,7-dichloro-4,5-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadizole with ortho-phenyl-enediamine gives 4,5-dichloro-2,1,3-thiadiazolo[4,5-a]phenazine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1683–1687, December, 1987.     

Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles

The bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles in 47% hydrobromic acid at elevated temperature has led to a general preparative method for the synthesis in high yield of otherwise difficulty accessible brominated 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles. The typical addition reaction is apparently eliminated under these reaction conditions and substitution takes place exclusively. Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole occurs successively at positions 4 and 7. 4-Substituted 2,1,3-benzothia-diazoles are selectively brominated at position 7. 5-Bromo- and 5-methyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole are brominated consecutively at positions 4 and 7.     

Designing of the white-light emission from a single-polymer system: Quantum theoretical study

Quantum-chemical calculations are applied to study the white-light emission from a single-polymer system with simultaneous blue (polyfluorene as a blue host) and orange (2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-based derivative as an orange dopant) emissions. Particular attention is paid to the variation in electronic and optical properties upon the structure tuning in pristine 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-based derivative. Importantly, by the introduction of electron-donating groups on terminal N,N-disubstituted amino groups, the electronic and optical properties of designed 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-based derivative have been tuned, making them to be potential candidates as orange dopants in white organic light-emitting devices based on polymers with polyfluorene as a blue-light-emitting host. Furthermore, designed 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-based derivatives have a possibility to be good hole or ambipolar transport materials in organic light-emitting diodes from the charge hopping model. Finally, we find that the designed 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-based derivative exhibit improved stability.

Researches on 2,1,3-thia- and selenadiazole XLV. Nitration of 4-hydroxy- and 4-ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoIe

Nitration of 4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole under conditions generally used for phenols, gave a high yield of 4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. The latter is readily reduced to 4-hydroxy-S-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole which on treatment with orthoformic ester gives oxazolo [5,4-e]benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. 4-Ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole is nitrated under similar conditions, giving a high yield of a mixture of equal quantities of 4-ethoxy-S-nitro- and 4-ethoxy-7-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole.     

Synthesis of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles

2,1,3-Benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles, 2 , have been prepared by two different methods. Reaction of bromo-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 1 , with cuprous cyanide occurs advantageously in refluxing dimethylformamide to give 2 , complexed with curpous bromide. Hydrogen peroxide in hydrochloric acid at 30–40° is shown to be an effective reagent for efficient decomposition of these reactions complexes, 2 CuBr, and subsequent isolation of 2. Yields in the Sandmeyer method for preparing nitriles 2 were improved by diazotizing amino-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 3 , with nitrosyl-sulfuric acid prior to reaction with the cuprous-sodium cyanide complex.     

Reductive sulfur extrusion reaction of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole compounds: a new methodology using NaBH4/CoCl2·6H2O(cat) as the reducing system

A new simple and efficient methodology for reductive sulfur extrusion from 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole compounds has been developed using NaBH₄ in the presence of catalytic amounts of CoCl₂·6H₂O (1 mol %). This method is an efficient alternative for the generation of various 1,4-disubstituted-2,3-diaminobenzene derivatives from 4,7-disubstituted-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles. The diamines can be easily converted into 4,7-disubstituted-quinoxaline compounds by simple reaction with glyoxal-sodium bisulfite.     

Researches on 2,1,3-thia- and selenadiazole XLV. Nitration of 4-hydroxy- and 4-ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoIe

Nitration of 4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole under conditions generally used for phenols, gave a high yield of 4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. The latter is readily reduced to 4-hydroxy-S-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole which on treatment with orthoformic ester gives oxazolo [5,4-e]benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. 4-Ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole is nitrated under similar conditions, giving a high yield of a mixture of equal quantities of 4-ethoxy-S-nitro- and 4-ethoxy-7-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole.For Part XLIV see [1].     

Efficient palladium-catalyzed C-S cross-coupling reaction of benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole at C-5-position: A potential class of AChE inhibitors

Functionalization of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BTD) with thiols at C-5 position remains low explored. Moreover, the arylthiol-substitutions at this position are also unexplored and can not be found by a S_N2 or S_N1 reaction. In this sense, herein we present a new palladium-catalyzed methodology for a wide variety of unpublished 5-arylsulfanyl-benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole derivatives synthesis with moderate to high yields using a low catalytic loading of Pd(L-Pro)₂ as low-coast, and efficient catalyst in low reaction time. Besides, we concluded that the pKa of thiol species has an important role in this catalysis, mainly in the CMD like catalytic cyclo process, which strongly interferes in the reaction yields. Furthermore, arylsulfanyl-benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles derivatives have been assessed (in vitro) as potential acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.     

The polar nature of 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole, -benzothiadiazole, -benzoselenadiazole and derivatives as determined by their electric dipole moments

Permanent electric dipole moments have been determined in benzene solutions at 25° for the oxygen, sulfur, and selenium series of 2,1,3-benzodiazoles. The derivatives studied contained 4, 5, and 6 substituted methyl, chloro, nitro, and amino groups. The dipole moment data of the derivatives were analyzed relative to that of the parent species which allowed deductions to be made about the mesomeric structures operating in the compounds. The mesomeric charge transfer increases regularly from the oxygen to the selenium structures, being nearly undetected in 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole derivatives and very pronounced in the 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazoles.     

Researches on 2,1,3-thia-and selenadiazoles

Chloromethylation of 4- and 5-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles with dichlorodimethyl ether in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride gives 4-chloro-7-chloromethyl- and 5-chloro-4-chloromethylbenzo-2, 1,3-thiadiazoles respectively. Reductive scission followed by treatment with thionyl chloride converts them to 4-chloro-7-methyl- and 5-chloro-4-methylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles; Chlorination of the latter gives 4-methyl-5,7-dichlorobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. Replacement of the chlorine in the chloromethyl groups gives 4-chloro-7-hydrosymethyl-,5-chloro-4-hydroxymethyl-, 4-chloro-7-cyanomethyl-,4-chloro-7-carboxymethyl-,5-chloro-4-carboxymethylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles. Reductive scission of 4-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-thidiazole followed by treatment with sodium selenite gives 4-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-selenadiazole.Part XLIII see [1].

The HeI and II photoelectron spectra obtained for 2,1-benzisothiazole and 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole, and the HeI spectra for the corresponding O- and NMe-heterocycles have been satisfactorily interpreted, by means of a combination of variations between compounds and ab initio MO calculations; a comparison has been made with both the parent systems benzo[c]thiophen etc., and with the monocyclic compounds.     

Synthesis of 4(6)-aryloxy- and 4-arylthio-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles

Reactions of 4,6-dibromo-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole with phenols or arenelthiols lead to 4-aryloxy-6-bromo-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles or 4-arylthio-6-bromo-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles, respectively. Isomeric 6-aryloxy-4-bromo-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles were synthesized by replacement of the fluorine atom in 2,6-dibromo-4-fluoro-1-nitrosobenzene with phenols and treatment of the resulting 4-aryloxy-2,6-dibromo-1-nitrosobenzene with sodium azide.
