For the case of 1-(allylsulfanyl)-2-methoxy-N-(1-methylethylidene)buta-1,3-dien-1-amine, obtained from α-lithiated methoxyallene, isopropyl isothiocyanate, and allyl bromide, it was shown that 5-ethylidene-2-(1-methoxyprop-2-enyl)-4,4-dimethyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-thiazole and 6-methoxy-2-methyl-3H-azepine are formed competitively upon the action of the t-BuOK–THF–DMSO system.     

Rearrangement of benzylsulfanyl-substituted 2-aza-1,3,5-triene into 5-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-thiazole in the t-BuOK-THF-DMSO system

Benzylsulfanyl-substituted 2-aza-1,3,5-triene prepared according to one-pot procedure from methoxyallene, isopropyl isothiocyanate, and benzyl bromide underwent unexpected rearrangement in the superbasic t-BuOK-THF-DMSO system with formation of 2-[(Z)-1-methoxyprop-1-en-1-yl]-4,4-dimethyl-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-thiazole via α-deprotonation of the benzylsulfanyl substituent, followed by intramolecular [1,5]-cyclization. Concurrent deprotonation of methyl group in the ketone imine fragment and subsequent [1,7]-electrocyclization of the resulting azatriene carbanion afforded 2-(benzylsulfanyl)-3-methoxy-7-methyl-4,5-dihydro-3H-azepine and 6-methoxy-2-methyl-3H-azepine.

The thermolysis of (Z)-methyl 3-(6-azido-3-chloro-1-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridazin-5-yl)-2-methylacrylate ( II ) provides a new synthetic route to pyrrolo[2,3-c-]pyridazines, specifically, methyl 3-chloro-1,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridazine-5-carboxylate ( III ) in 91% yield. Treatment of III with ozone provides an entry into the novel pyridazino[3,4-d][1,3]oxazine ring system, specifically, 3-chloro-1,7-dimethylpyridazino[3,4-d][1,3]oxazine-4,5-dione ( IV ) in 73% yield. Compound IV is smoothly hydrolyzed into 6-acetylamino-3-chloro-1-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridazine-5-carboxylic acid ( V ) which is readily recyclized into IV by dehydration with acetic anhydride.

Reactions of 1,3-Dialkyl-5-amino-1,3-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazo-[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-ones with acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate

1,3-Dialkyl-5-amino-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones reacted with acetylacetone to give the corresponding 4-(1,3-dialkyl-2-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-ylamino)pent-3-en-2-ones which underwent intramolecular cyclization to 1,3-dialkyl-5,7-dimethyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]-[1,8]naphthyridin-2-ones on heating in polyphosphoric acid or diphenyl ether. Analogous reaction of 1,3-dialkyl-5-amino-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones with ethyl acetoacetate led to the formation of ethyl 3-(1,3-dialkyl-2-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-5-ylamino)but-2-enoates whose cyclization afforded 1,3-dialkyl-8-hydroxy-7-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[5,4-b][1,8]naphthyridin-2-ones.     

Reaction of 4,5-diaminopyrimidine and ethyl acetoacetate: Synthesis and chemistry of isomeric dihydropyrimido[4,5-b][1,4] diazepinones

Depending upon reaction conditions, 4,5-diaminopyrimidine and acetoacetic ester gave a variety of condensation products, including the two isomeric dihydropyrimido[4,5-b][1,4]-diazepinones. Under conditions leading to bicyclic products, the formation of 1,5-dihydro-4-methyl-2H-pyrimido[4,5-b][1,4]diazepin-2-one ( 2 ) was strongly favored. The isomeric 3,5-dihydro-2-methyl-4H-4-one compound ( 4 ) was best obtained by cyclization of ethyl 3-(4-amino-5-pyrimidylamino)crotonate ( 3 ) under base catalysis. Thermal rearrangement of 2 and 4 proceeded, in each instance, with loss of the isopropenyl moiety and gave 8-purinone. Compound 4 underwent ring contraction under the influence of alkoxide to yield a product which was shown to be the 7-isopropenyl-8-purinone ( 6 ).     

Preparation of novel heterocyclic systems from isatoic anhydrides

Isatoic anhydride ( 1a ) and 5-chloroisatoic anhydride ( 1b ) were treated with 2-(1-methylhydrazino)ethanol ( 2 ) to produce 2-aminobenzoic acid 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-methylhydrazide ( 3a ) and its 5-chloro analog 3b , respectively. Treatment of 3a and 3b with carbon disulfide gave, respectively, 2,3-dihydro-3-[(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamino]-2-thioxo-4-(1H)quinazolinone ( 4a ) and its 6-chloro analog 4b .

Compound 5a could be produced directly from 3a and thiophosgene. Treatment of 4a and 4b with trifluoroacetic anhydride followed by potassium carbonate gave 3,4-dihydro-4-methyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]thiadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 7a ) and its 8-chloro analog 7b , respectively. Treatment of 4a with thionyl chloride also gave 7a , but 4b and thionyl chloride afforded a mixture of 7b and 8-chloro-3,4-dihydro-4-methyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]oxadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 10 ). The dimethyl analogs of 4a and 4b ( 13a and 13b ) upon treatment with thiophosgene afforded 3,4-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]oxadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 14a ) and its 8-chloro analog 14b , respectively.

Reaction of 1a with aniline gave ethyl 6-acetyl-8-anilino-3-cyano-7,8-dihydro-4H-pyrazolo-[1,5-a][1,3]diazepine-8-carboxylate ( 4 ), in addition to ethyl 3-cyano-7-methyl-6-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-acrylate ( 5 ). On the other hand, the same reactions of 1b with benzylamine or aniline gave 2b or 8b , respectively. Though catalytic hydrogenation of 1a over 5% palladium-carbon proceeded by ring fission of cyclopropane ring to give 9 , 1a (or 1b ) afforded 4,5-dihydro derivatives ( 13 or 15 ) by catalytic hydrogenation over platinum oxide. The reactivity of 5-methoxy-4,5,5a,6a-tetrahydro-6H-cyclopropa[e]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ( 16 ), which are related analogs of 1a,b , is also described.

The temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility of compounds 1-3 revealed an intermolecular antiferromagnetic exchange interaction.     

Synthesis and Addition Reactions of 1,3-Thiazole-5(4H)-thione Oxides

1,3-Thiazole-5(4H)-thione oxides 2 were prepared by oxidation of the corresponding 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-thiones 1 with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (Table 1). Addition reactions of 2 with organolithium and Grignard reagents yielded 4,5-dihydro-4,4-dimethyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl methyl sulfoxides of type 4 via thiophilic attack (Table 2).
