The Synthesis and Bioactivity of Dimethyl (2,3- Dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]Dioxin-6-Yl)(Aryl Amino)Methylphosphonates

Abstract

A new series of α-aminophosphonates have been synthesized by a one-pot three-component reaction of 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-carbaldehyde, various amines, and dimethyl phosphite by using nano-TiO₂ as a catalyst under solvent-free conditions at 50°C. The major advantages of the present method are high yields, short reaction times, recyclable catalyst, and solvent-free reaction conditions. Among these new structurally diversified set of α-aminophosphonates, dimethyl (2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)(3-nitrophenylamino) methylphosphonate and dimethyl (2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)(4-fluoro-3-nitro-phenyl-amino) methylphosphonate have shown higher antioxidant activity in diphenyl picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging, reducing power assay, and lipid peroxidation methods.     

An efficient synthesis of 1-oxo-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine-4-carbonitriles

Ethyl α-(dimethylaminomethylene)-2-cyanomethyl-4-phenylquinoline-3-carboxylate(2) as new synthons directed to 1-oxo-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine-4-carbonitriles was obtained by the condensation of ethyl 2-cyanomethyl-4-phenylquinoline-3-carboxylate(1) and N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal(DMFDMA).Reaction of this enamine with primary amines(3) in HOAc-DMF at120 ℃then affords 2-substituted 1-oxo-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine-4-carbonitrile derivatives(4) in good yields by a tandem addition-elimination-cyclization reaction.     

艾托拉嗪的合成

自从色洛托宁(Serotonin)在1948年作为神经传导素被发现以后,它就与中枢神经系统(CNS)的活动联系在一起.经过科学家们的多年努力,芳基哌嗪作为种类繁多的5-HT1A受体中的一类得到了迅速发展,像布斯哌隆(Buspirone)和伊沙匹隆((Ipsapirone)很早就作为有效的抗焦虑和抗抑郁症药物得到广泛的应用.     

Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of 2,3-Dihydrobenzo[b]furans: Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Analgesic Agent BRL 37959

An efficient asymmetric synthesis of (S)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-carboxylic acid (8?a) and (S)-5-chloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-carboxylic acid (8?b) was established. Key to the success was the highly stereoselective enzymatic kinetic resolution of the corresponding methyl or ethyl esters that was further developed into a dynamic process. As a reliable and fast tool for analysing the enantiomeric excess, HPLC coupled with a CD detector was utilized. The route was completed by a Friedel-Crafts acylation of ethyl (S)-5-chloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-carboxylate (7?c) followed by saponification leading to (S)-5-chloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-carboxylic acid (2), an analgesic agent.     

Synthesis of benzo[b]selenophene and its methyl homologs

A method for the synthesis of benzo[b]selenophenes was perfected. 3-Oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]selenophene and 2-methyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]selenophene exist only in the keto form. 3-Methylbenzo[b]selenophene was obtained by the reaction of 3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]selenophene with methylmagnesium iodide. Metallation of benzo[b]selenophene with butyllithium proceeds at the 2 position of the selenophene ring.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1475–1480, November, 1970.     

Site-selective photocycloadditions of 2-pyrones with electron-poor olefins and the derivation from the cycloadducts

Photosensitized cycloaddition of 4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrone ( 1 ) with methacrylonitrile ( 3b ) afforded two types of [2 + 2]cycloadducts, 4b and 6b , across the C₅-C₆ and C₃-C₄ double bonds in 1 , respectively. Photosensitized reactions of 1 with dimethyl maleate and dimethyl cyclobutene-1,2-dicarboxylate gave [2 + 2]cycload-ducts 4d, 4e across the C₅-C₆ double bond, in addition to [4 + 2]cycloadduct 9d or bicyclo[4.2.0]octadiene 10e . The photoreactions of methyl 2-pyrone-5-carboxylate ( 2 ) with 3b and 2-chloroacrylonitrile ( 3c ) gave [4 + 2]cycloadducts 5b, 5c in addition to [2 + 2]cycloadducts 11b and 11c across the C₅-C₆ double bond in 2 . The photocycloaddition mechanism was explained from results calculated by means of PM3-CI method. Namely, the site- and/or regio-selective products, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 10 were thought to come from the same site-selective radical intermediates in the case of electron-poor olefins. Pyrolysis and/or hydrolysis of the cycload-ducts 4e, 5b, 5c gave 5,6-dihydro-2-pyrone 12 or benzene derivatives.

An unusual reaction of 2-(2-pyridylcarbonyl)- and 2-(2-quinolylcarbonyl)benzoyl chlorides with p-nitroaniline

In the reaction of 2-(2-pyridylcarbonyl)benzoyl chloride, which exists in the form of 6,11-dioxo-6,11dihydrobenzo[b]quinolizinium chloride, with p-nitroaniline, 2-(4-nitrophenylimino)-6, 11-dihydro-2H-benzo-[b]quinolizine-6, I I -dione is unexpectedly formed. When it reacts with water or methanol there is an opening of the quinolizine ring and aromatization of the quinoid fragment with the formation of 2-[4-(4nitrophenylamino)-2-pyridylcarbonyl]benzoic acid or its methyl ester. Under the action of antimony pentachloride, 2- 2-quinolylcarbonyl)benzoylchloride-3 (2-quinolyl)-3-chloro- 1, 3-dihydrobenzo[c]furan-1 -one -is converted to 3-(2-quinolyl)-1,3-dihydrobenzo[c]furan-1-on-3-ylium hexachlorantimonate, which undergoes isomerizing recyclization upon heating to 7,12-dioxo-7,12-dihydrobenzo[b/ hexachloroantimonate. The latter enters into an analogous reaction with p-nitroaniline, thereby forming 5-(4-nitrophenylimino)-7,12-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]quinolizine-7,2-dione.Riga Technical University, Riga LV-1048.

Synthesis of [b]-Fused Benzo[d]furano Heterocycles

In the reactions of 3,4,6,7-tetrachloro-2,5-dihydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan with 4-methyl and 4-phenyl thiosemicarbazides, dithizone and sodium N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate the [b]fused benzo[d]furano heterocycles have been synthesized.     

On the synthesis and reactivity of 4,10-dihydrobenzo-[b]thieno[2,3-e]thiepin-10-acetic acid and 5,10-dihydrobenzo[e]thieno[3,2-b]thiepin-10-acetic acid

A simple method to synthesize 4,10-dihydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-e]thiepin-10-acetic acid (8a) and 5,10-dihydrobenzo[e]thieno[3,2-b]thiepin-10-acetic acid (8b) starting from ketones la,b is described. The reactivity of the acid 8a has been investigated and some derivatives are reported.     

A facile carbene route to 2-fluoro-2-pyrrolines via fluorinated azomethine ylides

2-Fluoro-2-pyrrolines have been prepared by a domino reaction of difluorocarbene with N-substituted ketimines in the presence of fumaronitrile, malenitrile or dimethyl maleate, involving azomethine ylide formation, 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, and dehydrofluorination. The reactions of 1H-dibenzo[b,e]azepine and 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines with difluorocarbene in the presence of fumaronitrile proceed with the formation of fluorinated 1H-dibenzo[c,f]pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepine and pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives. The yields of 2-fluoro-2-pyrrolines depend mostly on their resistance to chromatographic work-up and are higher for 5,5-disubstituted pyrrolines compared to 5-monosubstituted derivatives.     

Chemoselective Condensation of β-Naphthol,Dimethyl Malonate,and Aromatic Aldehydes Promoted by Niobium Pentachloride

A multicomponent reaction of β-naphthol, dimethyl malonate, and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of NbCl₅ as promoter is described. Under similar conditions, aromatic aldehydes with different substituents exhibited different behaviors than β-naphthol and dimethyl malonate. In these MCRs, 4-aryl-3,4-dihydrobenzo[f]coumarins are obtained as the major products (41–93%) and 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes as the minor products (1–38%).     

Bowdenol, a new 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran constituent from Bowdichia virgilioides

From the stem bark of Bowdichia virgilioides, lupeol, lupeol acetate, sitosterol, stigmasterol and methyl-3-[2-(1-hydroxymethylvinyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-5-yl]-(E)-2-propenoate have been isolated. The latter is a new compound and it has been named as bowdenol. Their structures were elucidated with the aid of spectroscopic techniques, mostly 1 and 2D NMR. The biogenetic pathway for bowdenol has been suggested.     

1,3‐cycloadditions of pyridinium N‐arylimides

The title compounds (5a: Ar = C₆H5, 5b: Ar = 2‐pyridyl) are 1,3‐dipoles of the azomethine imine type; their 1,3‐cycloadditions are accompanied by the loss of the pyridinium resonance energy. As a consequence, the interaction with electron‐deficient ethylenes gives rise to cycloaddition/cycloreversion equilibria, in contrast to the cycloadditions of isoquinolinium N‐arylimides; enamines do not react with 5. The cycloadducts of 5a to dimethyl maleate, fumaronitrile, and acrylonitrile are N^β‐dienyl‐phenylhydrazines, which undergo a hydrazo rearrangement affording aminals derived from a tetracyclic system. Like enamines, the dienehydrazine system of the cycloadducts reacts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate by [2 + 2] cycloaddition and electrocyclic ring opening furnishing tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2‐a]azocine derivatives. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Synthesis and cytotoxic and antitumor activity of 1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b]acronycine diacid hemiesters and carbamates

A series of cis-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b]acronycine diacid hemiesters and dicarbamates were prepared by acylation of cis-1,2-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-3,3,14-trimethyl-1,2,3,14-tetrahydro-7H-benzo[b]pyrano[3,2-h]acridin-7-one. The cytotoxicity of the dicarbamates depended on the steric hindrance of the esterifying groups at positions 1 and 2. Diacid hemiesters displayed significant in vitro cytotoxic activities and induced cell cycle perturbations similar to those obtained with cis-1,2-diacetoxy-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b]acronycine (S23906-1) currently under preclinical development. cis-1-Acetoxy-2-hemiglutaryloxy-1,2-dihydrobenzo[b]acronycine was the most promizing compound of the series, inducing complete inhibition of tumor growth when tested against C38 colon adenocarcinoma implanted in mice.     

Non-catalytic approach to the synthesis of partially reduced 'S' shaped dioxathia- and oxadithiahelicenes through base induced inter- and intramolecular C-C bond formation

An efficient and convenient route for the construction of helical 'S' shaped dioxathia- and oxadithiahelicenes with oxygen and sulfur atoms located in the middle of the outer helix has been developed through base induced inter- and intramolecular C-C bond formation from the reaction of 4-sec-amino-2-oxo-2,5-dihydrothiochromeno[4,3-b]pyran-3-carbonitriles with 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b]oxepin-5(2H)-ones, 3,4-dihydrobenzo[b]thiepin-5(2H)-one and thiochroman-4-ones separately. Quantum chemical calculations have also been carried out to explore the geometries and electronic structures of newly synthesized compounds to envisage the pathway for interconversion of both atropisomers. The determination of helicity parameters and configurational stability demonstrate that the energy barrier is strongly dependent on the nature of hetero-atoms present.     

Effects of functional group interactions on the gas-phase methylation and dissociation of acids and esters

Functional group interactions have been observed to affect gas-phase ion-molecule chemistry in a quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer. Gas-phase methylation and collisionactivated dissociation reactions of a series of related acids and esters allows an evaluation of the structural factors that influence reactivity and functional group interactions of these compounds. Examination of the [M+H]⁺ or [M+15]⁺ product ions by collision-activated dissociation has provided insight into the conformations from which diacids and diesters undergo electrophilic addition. Collision-activated dissociation has provided not only more detailed information on the structures of the ions, but also the data necessary for confident mechanistic interpretation. Labeling studies were done to probe fragmentation pathways. Upon activation of the [M+CD₃]⁺ products of dimethyl maleate and dimethyl succinate, formed from reaction of the neutrals with CD₃OCD ₂ ⁺ ions, a rapid interfunctional group methyl transfer causes scrambling of the methyls prior to elimination of dimethyl ether or methanol. The [M+15]⁺ ions of dimethyl maleate are believed to lose dimethyl ether through a rate-determining 1,6-methyl transfer, whereas the [M+15]⁺ ions of dimethyl succinate eliminate methanol through a rate-determining 1,5-proton transfer.     

Synthetic studies on diuretics. 5-(3,3-N,S-substituted-2-propenoyl)-2,3-dihydro-2- benzo[b]furancarboxylic acids

6,7-Dichloro-2,3-dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acid derivatives having a 3,3-N,S-disubstituted-2-propenoyl group at the 5-position were prepared by alkylation of 5-(thiocarbamoyl)acetyl derivatives of the 2,3-dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acid ester or by acetal exchange reaction of 5-[3,3-bis(alkylthio)-2-propenoyl] derivatives. Synthesis of 5-[4 and/or 5-(di)substituted-4-thiazolin-2-ylidene]acetyl-2,3- dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acids was also achieved by the reaction of 2-halo-1-methoxyethyl isothiocyanate with the 5-acetyl derivative in the presence of base or through sulfide contraction of 2-[[6,7-dichloro-2-methoxycarbonyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-5-yl) carbonyl)-methylthio]thiazolium bromide. Some of the compounds which were synthesized showed potent natriuretic activities in rats and mice. The structure-activity relationship is also discussed.     

The synthesis of heterocyclic derivatives of dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene

The synthesis of 2-amino-7,8-dihydrobenzo[1,2]cyclohepta[3,4,5-de]quinazoline ( 10 ) and 6,7-dihydrobenzo[1,2]cyclohepta[3,4,5-cd]indazole ( 5 ) is described.     

Synthesis of the precursors of bis(trichloro-1,4-benzoquinonyl)tetrathiafulvalenes

In reaction with potassium butylxanthate and sodium tert-butyltrithionate, 2,5-dihydroxy-3,4,6,7-tetrachloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan forms the products from nucleophilic substitution of a chlorine atom, i.e., O-butyl S-(2,5-dihydroxy-4,6,7-trichloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl) xanthate and S-tert-butyl S-(2,5-dihydroxy-4,6,7-trichloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl) trithiocarbonate respectively. Recyclization of the xanthate in concentrated sulfuric acid gave 4-(2,5-dihydroxy-3,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-1,3-dithiol-2-one, which was oxidized by iron trichloride to the corresponding benzoquinone. Cyclization of the trithiocarbonate in the presence of trifluoroacetic and p-toluenesulfonic acid led to 7-hydroxy-5,6,8-trichloro-3a,8b-dithiolo[4,5-b]benzo[d]furan-2-thione.Dedicated to Prof. A.
