Synthetic transformations of higher terpenoids: XXIII. Synthesis of diterpenoid-based dihydroisoindolones

Vilsmeier-Haak reaction of phlomisoic acid methyl ester gave a mixture of 15- and 16-formyllabdanoids. In addition, methyl 2-formyldodecahydrophenanthro[1,2-b]furan-6-carboxylate was isolated, and its structure was determined by X-ray analysis. Reductive amination of 16-formyllabdanoid with benzylamine or α-amino acid methyl esters led to the formation of labdanoid furfurylamines which reacted with maleic anhydride to produce N-substituted 4-oxo-10-oxa-3-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]dec-8-ene-6-carboxylic acids. Acylation of labdanoid furfurylamines with (E)-but-2-enoyl chloride afforded the corresponding unsaturated amides which were converted into 10-oxa-3-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]dec-8-en-4-ones via intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction. Treatment of the oxa adducts with boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex gave dihydroisoindol-1-one derivatives containing a diterpene fragment.     

Synthetic transformations of higher terpenoids: XVII. Intramolecular cyclization of N-furfuryl amides of the labdane series

16-(Benzylaminomethyl)lambertianic acid methyl ester reacts with 2-methylprop-2-enoyl chloride to give unsaturated amide which readily undergoes intramolecular [4 + 2]-cycloaddition with formation of terpenoid derivatives of 10-oxa-3-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]decenone. Acetylation of lambertianic acid methyl ester with acetic anhydride occurs preferentially at the 2-position of the furan ring and is accompanied by migration of the exocyclic double bond. Reductive amination of 16-acetyl-15,16-epoxylabda-8(9),13,14-triene and subsequent reaction of the resulting amine with 2-methylprop-2-enoyl chloride give intramolecular cyclization products in high yield without isolation of intermediate furfurylacryloyl derivative. Reactions of methyl 16-(benzylaminomethyl)-15,16-epoxylabda-8(9),13,14- and -8(17),13,14-trien-18-oates with maleic anhydride lead to the formation of the corresponding 10-oxa-3-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]dec-8-ene-6-carboxylic acid derivatives as mixtures of diastereoisomers.     

Condensed isoquinolines 25. Alkylation of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one

Interaction of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[2,3-b]quinazolin-13-one with alkylating agents occurs at two positions depending on their nature and the reaction conditions-at C₍₆₎ or N₍₅₎. Fusion with methyl tosylate leads to 5-methyl-13-oxo-6,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-5-ium salts, while interaction with benzyl halides in the presence of i-PrONa gave 6-benzyl-and 6,6-dibenzyl-6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones. Alkylation with olefins led to two types of products. In the case of maleinimides and maleic acid anhydride Michael adducts at C₍₆₎ were formed and in the case of cyanocinnamic acid esters the reaction was accompanied by intramolecular acylation at N₍₅₎ to give 1-aryl-3,9-dioxo-3H,9H,11H-benzo[5,6][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-2-carbonitrile. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No.11, 1698–1708, November 2007.     

Cyclofunctionalization of 6-alkenylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones with arenesulfenyl chlorides

Reactions of 6-allylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one with arenesulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of addition of the latter at the exocyclic double bond, while analogous reactions in acetic acid in the presence of LiClO₄ were accompanied by intramolecular electrophilic cyclization involving the N⁷ atom. 6-Cinnamylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one reacted with arenesulfenyl chlorides in acetic acid in the absence of electrolyte to produce fused pyrazolo[4′,3′: 5,6]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine derivatives. Introduction of a bulky phenyl group into position 1 of the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine system reduces the yield of the corresponding intramolecular cyclization product at N⁷ as a result of concurrent formation of acyclic addition product.

Novel Method for the Synthesis of [1,2,4]Triazino[4,3‐c]quinazoline System

4‐Hydrazinoquinazoline was found to form new 2‐(3,4‐dihydro‐3oxo‐2H‐[1,2,4]triazino[4,3‐c]quinazolin‐4‐yl)acetic acid with maleic anhydride in on‐step sequence. Proposed heterocyclization includes, probably, acylation reaction followed by intramolecular uncleophilic addition.     

Total synthesis of (+)-dihydromevinolin

The potent hypocholesterolemic agent (+)-dihydromevinolin was synthesized from chiral pyranoside 5 and octahydronaphthalene 6 which was obtained from maleic anhydride Diels-Alder adduct 7 by intramolecular sulfoxide acylation and methyl cuprate addition.     

Functionalized 2-azabicyclo[3.3.1] nonanes. vii.: A new synthesis of 4-azatricyclo[5.2.2.04,8]undecan-11-one

An improved method for the synthesis of 4-azatricyclo [5.2.2.0⁴,⁸] undecan-11-one (1) is reported. The synthesis involves hydrogenolysis of 8-hydroxyethyl-2-azabicyclo [3.3.1] nonan-7-one 3 followed by intramolecular alkylation of the resulting secondary amine 7. The required azabicyclic alcohol 3 was obtained by oxidative cyclization with mercuric acetate of the α-alkylated methyl 4-piperidineacetoacetate 5.     

Intramolecular N-arylation in heterocyclization: synthesis of new pyrido-fused pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepinones

Alkylation of l-prolinamide with 3-(chloromethyl)-2-halopyridines, followed by cyclization through an intramolecular Pd-catalysed amidation, provided an entry to the pyrido[2,3-e]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepin-10-one scaffold. Furthermore, a synthetic route towards diverse new pyrido[f]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepin-7-ones has been developed by acylation of contiguously substituted (aminomethyl)halopyridines with Boc-l-proline followed by intramolecular amination.     

Studies on the Reaction of α‐Chloroformylarylhydrazine Hydrochloride with Imidazole and 1,2,4‐Triazole

α‐Imidazolformylarylhydrazine 2 and α‐[1,2,4]triazolformylarylhydrazine 3 have been synthesized through the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 1 with imidazole and 1,2,4‐triazole, respectively. 2,2′‐Diaryl‐2H,2′H‐[4,4′]bi[[1,2,4]‐triazolyl]‐3,3′‐dione 4 was obtained from the cycloaddition of α‐chloroformylarylhydrazine hydrochloride 1 with 1,2,4‐triazole at 60 °C and in absence of n‐Bu₃N. The inducing factor for cycloaddition of 1 with 1,2,4‐triazole was ascertained as hydrogen ion by the formation of 4 from the reaction of 3 with hydrochloric acid. 4 was also acquired from the reaction of 3 with 1 and this could confirm the reaction route for cycloaddition of 1 with 1,2,4‐triazole. Some acylation reagents were applied to induce the cyclization reaction of 2 and 3.1 possessing chloroformyl group could induce the cyclization of 2 to give 2‐aryl‐4‐(2‐aryl‐4‐vinyl‐semicarbazide‐4‐yl)‐2,4‐dihydro‐[1,2,4]‐triazol‐3‐one 6. 7 was obtained from the cyclization of 2 induced by some acyl chlorides. Acetic acid anhydride like acetyl chloride also could react with 2 to produce 7D . 5‐Substituted‐3‐aryl‐3H‐[1,3,4]oxadiazol‐2‐one 8 was produced from the cyclization reaction of 3 induced by some acyl chlorides or acetic acid anhydride. The 1,2,4‐triazole group of 3 played a role as a leaving group in the course of cyclization reaction. This was confirmed by the same product 8 which was acquired from the reaction of 1 , possessing a better leaving group: Cl, with some acyl chlorides or acetic acid anhydride.     

New synthetic approach to substituted isoindolo[2,1-a]quinoline carboxylic acids via intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of 4-(N-furyl-2)-4-arylaminobutenes-1 with maleic anhydride

Acylation of substituted 4-(furyl-2)-4-arylaminobut-1-enes with maleic anhydride provided 2-allyl-6-carboxy-4-oxo-3-aza-10-oxatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]dec-8-enes in high yield under mild reaction conditions. The Diels-Alder adducts are formed via an initial amide formation followed by a stereoselective intramolecular [4+2] exo-cycloaddition reaction. Treatment of the tricyclic compounds with phosphoric acid at high temperatures (70-120 °C) promoted cyclic ether opening, intramolecular cyclization and aromatization to give the corresponding tetracyclic compounds, 5,6,6a,11-tetrahydro-10-carboxyisoindolo[2,1-a]quinolines, in moderate yields. The influence of the acid and the reaction temperature on the cyclization reactions are also discussed.     

Derivatives of imidazo-<Emphasis Type="Italic">sym</Emphasis>-triazine

2-Dimethylamino-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]-sym-triazin-4-one synthesized by us previously is converted by the action of aryl isocyanates and arenesulfonyl chlorides into the corresponding derivatives of urea and N-arenesulfonyl-substituted imidazo-sym-triazinones. It was shown that 6-(2-chloroethoxy)-2-dimethylamino-4-(methoxycarbonylmethylamino)-sym-triazine is converted by thermolysis into 2-dimethylamino-8-methoxycarbonylmethyl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]-1,3,5-triazin-4-one, which is also obtained by the action of methyl bromoacetate on the imidazo-sym-triazinone. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1230–1235, August, 2008.     

Synthesis and properties of 3-substituted 3-azabicyclo-[3.3.1]nonan-9-amines

Catalytic hydrogenation of 3-benzyl- and 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-one oximes over Raney nickel gave the corresponding 3-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-amines which were converted into amides via reactions with acetyl and chloroacetyl chlorides and maleic and succinic anhydrides, into Schiff bases by condensation with benzaldehyde and 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, and into isothiocyanates by treatment with thiophosgene in the presence of K₂CO₃. 3-Benzyl- and 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-3-azabicyclo-[3.3.1]nonan-9-yl isothiocyanates readily reacted with methanol, aniline, and sodium azide to produce methyl thiocarbamate, thiourea, and dihydrotetrazole-5-thione derivatives having a 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane fragment.     

Esters of heterocyclic γ-amino alcohols

Reduction of cis-3-cyano-4-hydroxypiperidines with lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) gave cis-3-aminomethyl-4-hydroxypiperidines, which were converted to cis-3-dimethylaminomethyl-4-hydroxypiperidines by methylation with formaldehyde and formic acid. Acylation of the methylated compounds with benzoyl and cinnatnoyl chlorides gave the corresponding esters. Condensation of cis-3-aminomethyl-4-hydroxypiperidines with formaldehyde gave perhydropyrido[3,4-e][1,3]oxazines, which were converted to 3-methylaminomethyl-4-hydroxypiperidines by means of LAH. The cis isomers of the corresponding O,N-diacyl derivatives of these amino alcohols were obtained by acylation with acetic anhydride and benzoyl and cinnamoyl chlorides.See [1] for communication V.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1363–1368, October, 1978.     

Synthesis of polychlorinated mono- and bisimides of cyclic dicarboxylic acids containing diene-dienophile fragments

Polychlorinated diene-dienophile mono- and bisimides formed at the acylation of N-aminoimides of 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexachlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3- and endo,exo-1,2,3,4,11,11-hexachlorotricyclo[6.2.1.0^5,10]-undec-2-ene-7,8-dicarboxylic acids with maleic anhydride in DMF.     

Synthetic transformations of higher terpenoids: XV. Transformations of azlactone derived from 16-formyllambertianic acid methyl ester

Condensation of 16-formyllambertianic acid methyl ester with hippuric acid gave methyl 15,16-epoxy-16-[(4Z)-5-oxo-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydrooxazol-4-ylidenemethyl]labda-8(20),13(16),14-trien-19-oate which underwent ready transformation into 2-benzoylamino-3-(2-furyl)acrylic acid of the labdanoid series. Reactions of the diterpenoid azlactone with amines and α-amino acid esters led to the formation of the corresponding carbamoylvinylbenzamides and N-(2-benzoylaminoacryloyl) amino acid esters, and furylacrylic acid hydrazides were formed in reactions with hydrazines. Cyclization of the N′-phenylhydrazide by the action of 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide gave the corresponding 1,2,4-triazin-6-one. By treatment of the azlactone with aqueous ammonia on heating, 4-substituted 2-phenyl-4,5-dihydroimidazol-5-one was obtained.     

New synthetic approach to epoxyisoindolo[2,1-a]quinolines based on cycloaddition reactions of 2-furyl-substituted tetrahydroquinolines with maleic anhydride and acryloyl chloride

A procedure was developed for the synthesis of hydrogenated furyl-substituted furo[3,2-c]quinolines, pyrano[3,2-c]quinolines, and 4-ethoxy-and 4-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)quinolines. The reactions of these compounds with acryloyl chloride and maleic anhydride produce epoxyisoindolo[2,1-a]quinoline derivatives through successive acylation at the quinoline nitrogen atom and intramolecular exo-[4+2]-cycloaddition at the furan moiety.

Enantiospecific synthesis of annulated nicotine analogues from D-glutamic acid. 7-Azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptano[2.3-c]pyridines

The conformationally restricted nicotinoid (1S,4S)-7-methyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptano[2,3-c]pyridine dihydrochloride has been prepared enantiospecifically from D-glutamic acid. The method involved a lithium cis-2,6-dimethylpiperidide-mediated intramolecular anionic cyclization of (2S,5R)-N-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-5-[3-(4-N-chloropyridinyl]proline methyl ester in tandem with a standard decarboxylation sequence. Reductive amination afforded the desired N-methylated [2.2.1]bicyclonicotinoid. Cyclization of the corresponding iodopyridinylproline methyl ester, obtained via ultrasound-facilitated chloro-iodo exchange, was also effected.

Abstract

The synthesis of acetic 2-{[1-methyl-2-(4-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-benzo [4,5]-thieno [2,3-d] [1,3-oxazin-2-yl)ethylidene]amino}-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrohenzo[b]thiophene ?3-carboxylic acid anhydride 5 and 2-(oxopropyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-benzo-[4,5] thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one 7, has been achieved in three steps from ethyl 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo(b]thiophene-3-carboxlate 1 via the reaction with ethyl acetoacetate followed by hydrolysis and acetic anhydride-induced cyclization. The 2-substituent in compound 5 has two functional groups i.e. active methylene and acid anhydride which are suitably located for intramolecular transformation. Thermal and/or base catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 5 afforded 2-(4-acetoxy-(hydroxyl)-2-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5] thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)-5,6,7,8- tetrahydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d] [1,3]oxazin-4-one 10 and 9 respectively. Treatment of 5 with hydrazine hydrate, aromatic and/or heterocyclic amines induced the same intramolecular cyclization with a concomitant oxazine-pyrimidine interconversion to give 3-amino(aryl or heteryl)-2-(4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrdhydrobenzo-[4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)-3,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydrobenzo[4,5] thieno[2,3-d] pyrimid in-4-one 11–14 respectively.     

Synthesis and Reactions of Some Heterocyclic Candidates Based on 2‐Amino‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene Moiety as Anti‐Arrhythmic Agents

In continuation of our previous work, a series of novel thiophene derivatives 4 , 5 , 6 , 8 , 9 , 9a , 9b , 9c , 9d , 9e , 10 , 10a , 10b , 10c , 10d , 10e , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 were synthesized by the reaction of ethyl 2‐amino‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene‐3‐carboxylate ( 1 ) or 2‐amino‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene‐3‐carbonitrile ( 2 ) with different organic reagents. Fusion of 1 with ethylcyanoacetate or maleic anhydride afforded the corresponding thienooxazinone derivative 4 and N‐thienylmalimide derivative 5 , respectively. Acylation of 1 with chloroacetylchloride afforded the amide 6 , which was cyclized with ammonium thiocyanate to give the corresponding N‐theinylthiazole derivative 8 . On the other hand, reaction of 1 with substituted aroylisothiocyanate derivatives gave the corresponding thiourea derivatives 9a , 9b , 9c , 9d , 9e , which were cyclized by the action of sodium ethoxide to afford the corresponding N‐substituted thiopyrimidine derivatives 10a , 10b , 10c , 10d , 10e . Condensation of 2 with acid anhydrides in refluxing acetic acid afforded the corresponding imide carbonitrile derivatives 11 , 12 , 13 . Similarly, condensation of 1 with the previous acid anhydride yielded the corresponding imide ethyl ester derivatives 14 , 15 , 16 , respectively. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, MS spectral data, and elemental analysis. The detailed synthesis, spectroscopic data, LD₅₀, and pharmacological activities of the synthesized compounds are reported.
