Synthesis of 1,3‐thiazole and 1,2,4‐oxadiazole substituted spiro[3H‐indole‐3,2′‐thiazolidine]‐2,4′(1H)‐diones

Some new derivatives of spiro[3H‐indole‐3,2′‐thiazolidine]‐2,4′(1H)‐dione with the heterocyclic ring such as substituted thiazole and 1,2,4‐oxadiazole attached to the indolinone ring via CH₂ linkage has been synthesized in moderate yields. The synthesis have been carried out by making use of the reactivity of the NH group of the indolinone moiety present in spiro[3H‐indole‐3,2′‐thiazolidine]‐2,4′(1H)‐dione.

Synthesis of some novel 2,6‐disubstituted pyridazin‐3‐ones as TMC120 analogues

Different analogues of TMC120 derived from pyridazin‐3(2H)‐one rings were synthesized by coupling of 3,6‐dichloropyridazine with arylacetonitriles, phenols and/or aniline derivative followed by hydrolysis and alkylation with different benzyl bromide derivatives.     

1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions. Part XII ‐ selective cycloaddition route to 4‐nitroisoxazolidine ring systems

Cycloadditions of C,N‐diarylnitrones to β‐nitrostyrenes occurred to yield two diastereoisomeric cycloadducts, the 3,4‐trans‐4,5‐trans substituted isoxazolidine derivatives being formed selectively as the major products. These were characterised by spectroscopic and X‐ray data. Conformational studies were carried out by X‐ray crystallography and Molecular Modelling.     

Regio‐ and stereoselective synthesis of isoxazolidine derivatives by asymmetric 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reaction of chiral nitrones with 1‐propene‐1,3‐sultone

Asymmetric 1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions of chiral nitrones to 1‐propene‐1,3‐sultone ( 1 ) were investigated. Chiral nitrones 6a‐e reacted with sultone 1 in toluene at 90 °C for 24‐36 h to give the corresponding isoxazolidines in moderate yields with high regioselectivities and stereoselectivities. The diastereoselectivity of this reaction varied with the choice of dipolarophile and the steric demands of nitrones. When sultone 1 was allowed to react chiral nitrone 6e , a much better diastereoselectivity of up to 5.1:1 was observed.     

Biginelli‐like three component reaction: Synthesis of some new ethyl 6‐ethoxycarbonylmethyl‐4‐aryl‐2‐oxo‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylate derivatives

In the context of our high‐throughput organic synthesis program, we have studied the reactivity of special β‐keto esters toward the Biginelli reaction. We have found that a diethyl‐3‐oxoglutarate reacts with one molecule of urea and one molecule of aldehyde under solvent‐free conditions to give a new family of 3,4‐dihydropyrimidin‐2(1H)‐ones in good yields.     

Synthesis of novel 3,5,7‐triaryl‐5,6‐dihydro‐4h‐1,2,5‐triazepines

Several hitherto unknown 3,5,7‐triaryl‐5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐1,2,5‐triazepines have been synthesised by cyclocondensation of N,N‐bis(phenacyl)anilines with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol or ethyleneglycol under reflux condition. Increased yields were obtained in the presence of p‐toluenesulfonic acid compared to the uncatalysed reaction.     

Synthesis of novel 5,7‐disubstituted 8‐hydroxyquinolines

Seven new 5,7‐disubstituted oxine derivatives have been synthesized via a Mannich reaction between a sec. amine (e.g. piperidine, pyrrolidine, morpholine, or dibenzylamine,) and 5‐cyano or 5‐azidomethyl‐8‐hydroxyquinoline, which were respectively obtained by nucleophilic displacement of 5‐chloromethyl‐8‐hydroxyquinoline by cyanide or azide anions. In all cases, a single product was isolated in medium to fair yield and characterized on the basis of ¹H and ¹³C‐NMR, MS and IR spectrometric data. The X‐ray structure of the product obtained from 5‐cyanomethyl‐8‐hydroxyquinoline and piperidine is also reported.

(±)‐2‐alkyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoline‐3‐carboxylic esters by a catalyst and pressure dependent tandem reduction‐reductive amination reaction

A series of 2‐(2‐nitrobenzyl)‐substituted β‐keto ester derivatives has been subjected to reductive cyclization under catalytic hydrogenation conditions. The reactions were found to be highly dependent on the catalyst and hydrogen pressure used. Hydrogenation over 5% palladium‐on‐carbon at 4 atmospheres pressure produced complex mixtures of products that included predominantly 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoline and quinoline products; at 1 atmosphere pressure, the same reactions gave mixtures containing predominantly tetrahydroquinoline and 1,4‐dihydroquinoline derivatives. Hydrogenation using 5% platinum‐on‐carbon was much cleaner and afforded the desired cis‐ and trans‐(±)‐2‐alkyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoline‐3‐carboxylic esters, with the cis product predominating by ≥ 13:1.
