Convenient and facile one step synthesis of medicinally relevant new 3,6-epoxy[1,5]dioxocines from 2-hydroxyaromatic benzaldehydes is described. The scope of the method was validated by examining the use of both electron rich and electron-deficient 2-hydroxyaromatic benzaldehydes.     

Synthesis of diethyl 6-aryl-3,6-dihydrotetrazolo-[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidine-4,5-dicarboxylates

Three-component condensation of diethyl 2-oxobutanedioate sodium salt with aromatic aldehydes and tetrazol-5-amine monohydrate afforded the corresponding diethyl 6-aryl-3,6-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-4,5-dicarboxylates.     

Features of switchable multicomponent heterocyclizations of salicylic aldehydes and 5-aminopyrazoles with pyruvic acids and antimicrobial activity of the reaction products

Three-component reactions of 5-aminopyrazoles and salicylic aldehydes with pyruvic acids were studied. The method of tuning of the selectivity of the heterocyclizations allowing to change its direction by variation of the reaction parameters was worked out. The treatment involving pyruvic acid can be selectively directed to the formation to either 3-aryl-10,11-dihydro-4,10-methano-pyrazolo[4,3-c][1,5]benzoxazocine-4-carboxylic acids or 3,6-diarylpyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-4-carboxylic acids, while the reaction involving arylpyruvic acid leads only to 7-hydroxy-2,5,6-triaryl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acids. Antimicrobial activity of the compounds obtained was also studied: Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) were found sensitive to the substances tested, however, only in the highest concentration.     

The reaction of β-lactam carbenes with 3,6-dipyridyltetrazines: switch of reaction pathways by 2-pyridyl and 4-pyridyl substituents of tetrazines

The reactions of β-lactam carbenes with both 3,6-di(2-pyridyl)tetrazine and 3,6-di(4-pyridyl)tetrazine were studied. It was found that β-lactam carbenes reacted with 3,6-di(2-pyridyl)tetrazine to produce 5-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridylpyrrol-2-ones in good yields, while with 3,6-di(4-pyridyl)tetrazine, they afforded pyrido[c]cyclopenta[b]pyrrol-2-ones in moderate yields. Both reactions were proposed to follow cascade mechanisms containing a 3,6a-dipyridylpyrrolo[3,2-c]pyrazol-5-one intermediate. The different pathways of the transformation of pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyrazol-5-ones were switched by the 2- and 4-pyridyl substituents. This work not only provided a simple and efficient strategy for the construction of novel triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine and pyrido[c]cyclopenta[b]pyrrole derivatives, respectively, but also revealed two different thermal transformation patterns of 3H-pyrazole compounds.     

Limitations,mechanism and understanding of the origins of stereocontrol in (S)-dimethylsulfonium-(p-tolylsulfinyl)methylide-mediated epoxidation reactions

The reaction of the (S)-dimethylsulfonium-(p-tolylsulfinyl)methylide with aldehydes gave α,β-epoxy sulfoxides with high enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity dependent on the aldehyde. The mechanism of the ‘model’ reactions [ylide substituted with Me S(O) or Ph S(O) with MeCHO or PhCHO] has been studied in detail using density functional theory.

Imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-1-ylalkylalcohols: synthesis via intramolecular cyclization of N-thioacyl 1,2-aminoalcohols and their silyl ethers and molecular structures

Iodine-mediated cyclization of N-thioacyl 1,2-aminoalcohols derived from aromatic aldehydes and ketones mainly produced bis(1-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridyl)arylmethanes, whereas the reaction of N-thioacyl 1,2-aminoalcohols derived from aliphatic aldehydes and N-thioacyl 1,2-aminoalcohols protected with a silyl group with iodine gave imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-1-ylalkylalcohols as a major product.     

Design, synthesis, and antimicrobial activity of fused triheterocyclic nitrogen systems involving tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines [1]

Dehydrogenative cyclization of the 6-substituted 7-arylidenehydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines derived from 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-hydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines and aromatic aldehydes gave the corresponding 6-substituted 9-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazolo-[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines. The latter compounds were also obtained by an alternative route involving dehydrative cyclization of 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-chlorotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines with aromatic hydrazides through the isolable aroylhydrazino intermediates. Also, the triazolotetrazolotriazine rings were accomplished by one-pot cyclization of cyclic amidrazones with aromatic acid chlorides. The ditetrazolo[1,5-b:1′,5′-d][1,2,4]triazine systems were synthesized by cyclization of the former cyclic amidrazones with nitrous acid, or cyclic imidoyl chlorides with sodium azide. The bis-triazolotetrazolotriazine derivatives were synthesized by cyclization of two equivalents of each cyclic imidoyl chloride with acid dihydrazides through the isolable bis-hydrazide products. The antimicrobial activity of representative compounds was studied.     

Oxidative Aromatization of 4,7-Dihydro-6-nitroazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines: Synthetic Possibilities and Limitations,Mechanism of Destruction,and the Theoretical and Experimental Substantiation

The reaction tolerance of the multicomponent process between 3-aminoazoles, 1-morpholino-2-nitroalkenes, and aldehydes was studied. The main patterns of this reaction have been established. Conditions for the oxidation of 4,7-dihydro-6-nitroazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines were selected. Previous claims that the 4,7-dihydro-6-nitroazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines could not be aromatised have now been refuted. Compounds with an electron-donor substituent at position seven undergo decomposition during oxidation. The phenomenon was explained based on experimental data, electro-chemical experiment, and quantum-chemical calculation. The mechanism of oxidative degradation has been proposed.

The latter compounds were also obtained by an alternative route involving dehydrative cyclization of 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-chlorotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines with aromatic hydrazides through the isolable aroylhydrazino intermediates. Also, the triazolotetrazolotriazine rings were accomplished by one-pot cyclization of cyclic amidrazones with aromatic acid chlorides. The ditetrazolo[1,5-b:1′,5′-d][1,2,4]triazine systems were synthesized by cyclization of the former cyclic amidrazones with nitrous acid, or cyclic imidoyl chlorides with sodium azide. The bis-triazolotetrazolotriazine derivatives were synthesized by cyclization of two equivalents of each cyclic imidoyl chloride with acid dihydrazides through the isolable bis-hydrazide products. The antimicrobial activity of representative compounds was studied. Correspondence: Mamdouh A. M. Taha, Chemistry Department, Faculty of Science, Faiyoum University, Faiyoum 63514, Egypt.     

3-α-Halocarbonyl derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a] benzimidazole and their reactions

3-(-haloacyl)-2,4-dialkylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles can be obtained either by brominating 3-acetylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles with bromine in acetic acid, or by acylating the 3-unsubstituted pyrazolobenzimidazoles with haloacetic halides. Halogenation of 3-acetylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles with bromine in acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate, and bromination with N-bromosuccinimide or 1-chlorobenzotriazole, result in deacylation to give 3,6(7)-dibromo- and 3-chloropyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles. The mono- and trihaloketones obtained have been used to prepare the corresponding aminoketones, the 3-carboxylic acid, and its derivatives.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 43–48, January, 1988.

These N‐oxide compounds display promising performance properties as energetic materials.

Synthesis of polysubstituted isoquinolines through cross-coupling reactions with α-alkoxytosylhydrazones

A Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of α-alkoxytosylhydrazones with sulfonates derived from salicyl aldehydes gives rise to protected 1,5-dicarbonyl compounds. Treatment with ammonium hydroxide readily transforms these alkenes into isoquinolines with diverse substitution patterns at positions 3 and 4. In a similar way, the employment of o-cyanononaflates in the coupling reaction, followed by treatment with an organometallic, provides isoquinolines that incorporate substitution also at position 1. The combination of both approaches represents a versatile method for the preparation of isoquinolines substituted at any position of the heterocyclic ring.
