The reaction of 2,3-diamino-1,4-naphthoquinone with acetoacetic ester in toluene (with water separation) gave 2,5-dihydro-1H-4-methylnaphtho[2,3-b]-1,4-diazepine-2,6,11-trione, which adds a molecule of methanol to the C=C bond of the diazepine ring to give 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-4-methyl-4-methoxynaphtho-[2,3-b]-1,4-diazepine-2,6,11-trione.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 121–123, January, 1979.     

Reaction of o-diaminoanthraquinones with malonic ester

The reaction of 1,2- and 2,3-diaminoanthraquinones with malonic ester was studied. It was established that the reaction products are N-ethoxymalonyl-o-diaminoanthraquinones and their heterocyclic derivatives — 1H-2-ethoxycarbonylmethylanthraimidazolediones. N-Ethoxymalonlyl-2,3-anthraquinone undergoes cyclization to 1H-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroanthra(2,3-b]-1,4-diazepine-2,4,7,12-tetraone when it is heated with sodium methoxide in absolute methanol, whereas 2-N-ethoxymalonyl-1,2-diaminoanthraquinone undergoes cyclization to 1H-2-ethoxy carbonylmethy lanthra-1,2-d]imidazole-6,11-dione.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 965–968, July, 1978.     

Conversion of acetamido- and nitro-substituted ortho-azidonitro derivatives of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo [b][1,4]dioxocin to the corresponding furoxans and furazans in the gas phase

Electron impact ionization of the five isomeric 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-9-azido-7,8-dinitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8-azido-7,9-dinitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8-azido-7,10-dinitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-azido-8,9-dinitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-azido-8,10-dinitro- and the related 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-acetamido-8-azido-9-nitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-acetamido-9-azido-8-nitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-9-acetamido-7-azido-8-nitro-, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-10-acetamido-7-azido-8-nitrobenzo[b] [1,4]dioxocin derivatives furnished, after elimination of nitrogen, the corresponding nitro and acetamido dioxocino-annelated benzofuroxans. Further loss of oxygen from the latter afforded the corresponding benzofurazans. It was shown in two cases that these processes occur primarily upon electron impact ionization, without excluding some small fraction undergoing a thermal degradation process. The proposed fragmentation patterns are supported by high-resolution and mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy spectroscopic data. Similar work on the unsubstituted 6,7-dihydro[1,4]dioxino[2,3-f]- and 7,8-dihydro-6H-[1,4]dioxepino[2,3-f]-2,1,3-benzoxa-diazole 1-oxide reveal that loss of oxygen from the molecular ion to furnish the corresponding benzofurazans is the result of electron impact ionization (at least in part).     

Ring closure of diethyl 2-methoxy-2-[N-(5-amino-1-benzylimidazolyl-4-carbonyl)amino]malonate: Product structures and pathways of product formation

Ring closure of the title compound (1) with sodium methoxide in methanol yielded three products, one 56-fused and two 57-fused heterocyclic systems: 9-benzyl-2-methoxycarbonylhypoxanthine (2), 3-benzyl-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-6-methoxy-6-methoxycarbonyl-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]-diazepine-5,8-dione (3), and 3-benzyl-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-6-methoxy-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]-diazepine-5,8-dione (4). Structures and pathways of formation of all three products have been described. Structures of2 and3 were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.     

Chromene chromium carbene complexes in the syntheses of naphthopyran and naphthopyrandione units present in photochromic materials and biologically active natural products

The carbene complex 5-(2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromene)methoxylmethylene chromium pentacarbonyl will undergo a benzannulation reaction with phenylacetylene, 1-pentyne, 3-hexyne, and trimethylsilylacetylene to give 7-hydroxy-10-methoxy-3H-naphtho[2.1-b]pyrans as the primary product. These compounds are difficult to obtain pure due to their sensitivity to air. If the benzannulation reaction is performed in conjunction with protection of the phenol function at C-7, then good to excellent yields of 7-alkoxy-10-methoxy-3H-naphtho[2.1-b]pyrans are afforded. If the 7-hydroxy products are captured by triflic anhydride, then the resulting aryl triflate can be used to access 3H-naphtho[2.1-b]pyrans bearing C-7 carbon substituents. The 7-hydroxy products can be oxidized to 3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-7,10-diones which are stable. The chromenyl carbene complex reacts with 1,6-bis(triisopropylsilyl)-1,3,5-hexatriyne to give a 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzo[de]chromene, a product type that has not been seen before in the reaction of Fischer carbene complexes with alkynes. A mechanism is proposed for this process that involves alpha,beta-hydride elimination from a chromacyclobutane intermediate. Chromenyl tungsten complexes react with alkynes to give products that result from cyclization without CO insertion.     

A tandem multi-component synthesis of 5,7-diaryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b][1,4]thiazin-2(3H)-ones

The five-component reaction of ethyl 2-[(2-oxopropyl)sulfanyl]acetate, aromatic aldehydes, and ammonium acetate affords two diastereomers of 5,7-diaryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b][1,4]thiazin-2(3H)-ones via a novel tandem Mannich-enamine-substitution sequence. Presumably, they are generated from ethyl 2-[(4-oxo-2,6-diaryl-3-piperidinyl)sulfanyl]acetates. During the formation of the trans-5,7-diaryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b][1,4]-thiazin-2(3H)-ones from ethyl 2-[(4-oxo-2,6-diaryl-3-piperidinyl)sulfanyl]acetates, the configuration at the carbon bearing an aryl group adjacent to the enamide CC double bond is inverted via ring opening and closure. When o-substituted benzaldehydes were employed in this reaction, 5,7-diaryl-5,6-dihydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b][1,4]thiazin-2(3H)-ones were obtained via air oxidation, along with trans-5,7-diaryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b][1,4]-thiazin-2(3H)-ones.     

Synthesis of benzazepines and their rearrangement to quinolines and pyrrolo(2,3-b) quinolines

BECKMANN or SCHMIDT rearrangement of ethyl trans-4-oxo-1-phenyl-2-tetralincarboxylate ( 2 ) affords ethyl trans-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1H-benzo [b] azepine-4-carboxylate ( 4 ). Mild treatment of trans-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1 H-benzo-[b] azepine-4-carboxylic acid ( 7 ) with thionyl chloride and pyridine in dimethylformamide and subsequent reaction with an amine yields the corresponding benzazepine-4-carboxamide. If he it is applied during the preparation of the acid chloride, rearrangement occurs yielding cis and trans derivatives of hydrocarbostyril. 2,3,4,5-Tetrahydro-1,4-methano-1-methyl-5-phenyl-1 H-benzo-[b] azepinium chloride ( 25 ) reacts with primary or secondary amines to cis-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives. When heated above its melting point, trans-4,5-dihydro-2-methylamino-5-phenyl-3H-benzo-[b] azepine-4-carboxylic acid ( 29 ) rearranges with elimination of water to a mixture of cis-and trans-2,3,3a,4-tetrahydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-1H-pyrrolo [2,3-b] quinoline ( 32 and 31 ). The reduction of 31 was investigated. The mechanisms of the rearrangements are discussed.     

Tetra-EDOT substituted 3D electrochromic polymers with lower band gaps

A couple of novel electrochromic materials poly(2,3,4,5-tetrakis(2,3-hydrothieno[3,4-b]dixin-5-yl)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrole)(P(t-EDOT-mPy))and poly(5,5',5",5'"-(thiophene-2,3,4,5-tetrayl)tetrakis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxine))(P(t-EDOTTh))are electrodeposited via multi-position polymerization of their tetra-EDOT substituted monomers t-EDOT-mPy and t-EDOT-Th,respectively.Compared with the linear 2D structured poly(thiophene)(E_g=2.2 eV)and poly(2,5-bis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)thiophene)(E_g=1.7eV),P(t-EDOT-Th)(E_g=1.62eV)has the lowest band gap.Hence,we speculate that the band gaps of the two polymers,having 3D structures,are decreased in contrast to non-substituted polymers or bi-EDOT substituted polymers,thiophene and 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole.The results indicated that P(t-EDOT-Th)thin films are more stable and show higher transmittance amid two polymers,which may find their utilization in organic optoelectronics.     

3-acyl-1,5-benzodiazepines in the reactions of 5,5-dimethyl-2-formylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with certain 1,2-diaminobenzenes

Reaction of 5,5-dimethyl-2-formylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with 4-methyl-, 4-benzoyl-, and 4-nitro-1,2-diaminobenzenes gave the corresponding 2-(2-amino-4-methylphenylaminomethylene)-, 2-(2-amino-5-benzoylphenylaminomethylene)-, and 2-(2-amino-5-nitrophenylaminomethylene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-diones. When treated with hydrochloric acid, they cyclize to 7-methyl-, 8-benzoyl-, and 8-nitro-3,3-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinon hydrochlorides. Under hydrolytic conditions the salts of 3,3,7-trimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinone and 3,3-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinone undergo the C₁₁−N₁₀ bond cleavage to give N-(2-aminophenyl)- and N-(2-amino-5-methylphenyl)-substituted 3-amino-2-formyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-enones. Ring opening of the hydrochlorides of 8-benzoyl-, and 3,3-dimethyl-8-nitro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinones occurs at the C−N₅ bond and gives the starting enamines.

Unexpected reaction of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone with aldehydes: new synthesis of naphtho[2,1-d]oxazole compounds

Treatment of 3-substituted 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones 3 with an aldehyde in a solution of hydrobromic acid in acetic acid led to 2,4-disubstituted naphtho[2,1-d]oxazol-5-ols. The outcome of this simple conversion is even more remarkable in view of the very similar reactions reported in literature, which all give rise to completely different products. Furthermore, the acquired naphthoxazoles 5-11 could be oxidatively ring opened by means of PIFA or CAN into a series of N-acylated 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones. A synthetic pathway towards 2-substituted naphtho[2,3-d]oxazole-4,9-diones was also disclosed as the outcome of CAN mediated oxidation of a 4-chloronaphtho[2,1-d]oxazol-5-ol.     

Synthetic transformations of higher terpenoids: XVIII. Synthesis of optically active 9,10-anthraquinone derivatives

Retro-Diels-Alder decomposition of dodecahydro-endo-4b,12-ethenochrysene-1,4-diones obtained from a tricyclic diterpenoid, levopimaric acid, gave optically active 5-[2-(6-vinyl-2,6-dimethyl-2-carboxycyclohexyl) ethyl]-7-isopropyl-1,4-naphthoquinones which reacted with silyloxybutadienes to produce the corresponding 6- and 7-hydroxyanthraquinones, 5-furyl-7-hydroxytetrahydroanthraquinones, or 5-furyl-7-oxohexahydroanthraquinones. Condensation of the naphthoquinone derivatives with 5-isopropenyl-2,3-dihydrothiophene 1,1-dioxide resulted in the formation of 6,11-dioxodihydro- and 6,11-dioxohexahydroanthra[2,1-b]thiophene 3,3-dioxides. 6- and 7-Hydroxyanthraquinones were also obtained by reaction of dodecahydro-endo-4b,12-ethenochrysene-1,4-diones with Danishevsky diene, followed by cleavage of the polycyclic adducts. The cycloaddition of 5-[2-(-2-carboxy-2,6-dimethyl-6-vinylcyclohexyl)ethyl]-7-isopropyl-1,4-naphthoquinones in the presence of Lewis acids was characterized by increased regioselectivity.     

A NOVEL SYNTHESIS OF 2-SUBSTITUTED-4H-THIENO [2,3-d][1,3] OXAZIN-4-ONE AND 2,3-DISUBSTITUTED THIENO [2,3-d]PYRIMIDIN-4(3H)-ONE DERIVATIVES

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.     

Preparation of alpha-diazocarbonyl compounds from beta-lapachone derivatives and other 1,2-naphthoquinones: use of the 2D NMR 1H,15N and 1H,13C HMBC techniques in assigning regiochemistry

The assignment of the diazo site in products of the reaction of p-toluenesulfonylhydrazine with beta-lapachone, 3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione, and other 1,2-naphthoquinones in methanol solution at room temperature has been accomplished using 1H,13C HMBC and 1H,15N HMBC NMR experiments. Only one diazo-naphthalenone product was isolated in yields ranging from 50-100% from each reaction. The site of diazo substitution of beta-lapachone and derivatives is the 1-position, in contrast to substitution at the 2-position in 4-MeO-1,2-naphthoquinone. Steric factors, rather than electronic factors, control the reaction site. Along with 2-diazo-1(2H)-naphthalenone, an additional product isolated from the reaction of p-toluenesulfonylhydrazide with 1,2-naphthoquinone was 2-diazo-4-hydroxy-1(2H)-naphthalenone. Confirmation of the formation of 6-diazo-2,2-dimethyl-2,3,4,6-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[h]cromen-5-one, obtained from beta-lapachone, was achieved using single crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Investigation of nitrogen- and sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds

The halogenation of 2,3-dimethylpyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-6-one with bromine or 1 mole of sulfuryl chloride gives 7-bromo-and 7-chloropyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-6-ones, while 2 moles of sulfuryl chloride give 7,7-dichloropyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-6-one. A number of 7-amino-and 7,7-diaminopyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-6-ones were obtained by the reaction of the appropriate halo derivatives with amines. Some of the pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-6-one derivatives inhibit the growth of interweavable tumors in animals.See [3] for communication XX.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1498–1501, November, 1971.

The colored forms of SP1 and SP2 were fully optimized by AM1 method, and the results support the keto structures. The calculation results on stability of colored forms are agreeable with published experimental results.     

Synthesis of 2,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-4-methyl-6-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine and its 1-α-L-arabinopyranoside

A new type of isatin analog-2,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-4-methyl-6-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine — was obtained by oxidation of 4-methyl-6-chloro-1H-pyrrolo(2,3-b]pyridine. Condensation of L-arabinose with 4-methyl-6-chloro-2,3-dihydropyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine and subsequent acetylation and dehydrogenation gave 1-(2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl--L-arabinopyranosyl)-4-methyl-6-chloropyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine, which served as the starting compound for the synthesis of 1--L-arabinopyranosyl-4-methyl-6-chloropyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine. Oxidation of 1-(2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-L-arabinopyranosyl)-4-methyl-6-chloropyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine gave 1-(2,3.4-tri-O-acetyl--L-arabinopyranosyl)-2,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-4-methyl-6-chloropyrrolo [2,3-b]pyridine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1083–1086, August, 1977.

1,4-dimethyl-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]-diazepine-5,8-dithione was synthesized by boiling 1,4-dimethyl-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]-diazepine-5,8-dione (a cyclic homolog of theobromine) with P₂S₅. Its molecular and crystal structures were determined by X-ray structure analysis, PMR spectroscopy and the calculations using the MM2 program. The crystals are monoclinic, sp. gr. P2 ₁ /n with a=9.305(4), b=9.464(3), c=11.628(3) Å, -90.49(3)^o, Z=4 for C₈H₁₀N₄S₂. M.p. 268–269 °C. The 7-membered heterocycle has a boat conformation in the crystal, while in solution at room temperature it undergoes interconversion. The geometrical parameters of the molecule obtained by X-ray structure analysis, by PMR spectroscopy below the coalescence temperature (290 K), and by MM2 calculations are in good agreement.A. V.
