The reactions of 4-dicyanomethylene-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran and some benzologs with nucleophiles

4-Dicyanomethylene-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran (1) reacts with primary amines under mild conditions to give 4-imino-3-alkyl-5-alkylimino-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-5H-[1]benzopyrano[3,4-c]-pyridine derivatives which, in turn, are hydrolyzed with acid to 4-imino-3-alkyl-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-5H-[1]benzopyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-5-ones. When more vigorous conditions are employed for the reactions of 1 with primary amines, Dimroth rearrangements take place and the products are derivatives of 4-alkyl- (or aryl)amino-5-alkyl- (or aryl)imino-2-phenyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano-[3,4-c]pyridine. The latter compounds are hydrolyzed by acid to the corresponding 5-pyridone derivatives. The reaction of 1 with piperidine gives 2-phenyl-4-piperidyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano-[3,4-c]pyridin-5-one. Sodium methoxide reacts with 1 to give 3-cyano-2-methoxy-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-6-phenylpyridine. Two benzologs of 1 have been allowed to react with primary and secondary amines and the products are analogous to those obtained from 1 .

The structures of the new compounds 3 and 4 were determined on the basis of analytical and spectroscopic data as well as on the acid hydrolysis products.     

Synthesis of some novel 5-substituted benzamido-6-arylamino-pyrazolo[3,4-D]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives for herbicidal activity

Abstract

Sixteen novel 3-methylthio-5-substituted benzamido-6-arylamino-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H)-one derivatives (4a–p) were successfully synthesized from iminophosphoranes, aryl isocyanate, and substituted benzoylhydrazine. The structures of the title compounds were elucidated by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HRMS. Herbicidal activity of the compounds 4a–p against Brassica napus (rape), Echinochloa crusgalli (barnyard grass), Cucumis sativus (cucumber), and Triticum aestivum (wheat) were determined. The results showed that 5-(2-chlorobenzamido)-6-phenylamino-3-methylthio-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H)-one (4c) displayed remarkable inhibition activity against the stalk and root of rape with 100% inhibition rate at the dosages of 10?mg/L and 100?mg/L, and 5-(4-nitrobenzamido)-6-phenylamino-3-methylthio-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H) -one (4d) exhibited excellent activity against the stalk and root of barnyard grass with 100% inhibition rate at the same dosages.     

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 3-amino-2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones (I) and 3-amino-1,2-diphenyl-2-propen-1-ones (II) occurred in good to moderate yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to I and II occurred only in the former case, giving in good to moderate yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the reaction of 2-methyl-1-phenyl-3-diphenylamino-2-propen-1-one with dichloroketene, a product was isolated which was proven by uv, ir, nmr and chemical evidence to be the dipolar ion VI, the supposed intermediate of the polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted enaminones.

The structures of 4-aryl-6-methyl-8-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyrazolo[3,4-b]diazepines 3 and 4-aryl-8-methyl-6-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyrazolo[4,3-b]diazepines 4 were determined by detailed nmr measurements.     

Reaction of 4-thioxo-1,3-benzothiazines with thiocarbohydrazine: Synthesis and reactivity of 1,3,4-triazolo[3,2-c]quinazoline derivatives

2-Aryl-4-thioxo-1,3-benzothiazines react with thiocarbohydrazide to give the new mesoionic compounds an-hydro 1-amino-5-aryl-2-mercapto-1,3,4-triazolo[3,2-c]quinazolin-4-ium hydroxides. These compounds react with methyl iodide, aldehydes and phenacyl bromides to give 1-amino-5-aryl-2-methylthio-1,3,4-triazolo-[3,2-c]quinazolin-4-ium iodides, 4-arylidenamino-3-(o-aroylamino)phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazolin-5-thiones and 3-(o-aroylamino)phenyl-6-aryl-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazines, respectively. These latter compounds by sequential treatment with methyl trifluoromethanesulphonate and triethylamine lead to 3-(o-aroylamino)-phenyl-6-aryl-1-methyl-7-mercapto-1H-pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazoles.     

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (III) occurred in good yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides, whereas N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-1-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (IV) did not react at all. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to III and IV occurred partly in the case of aromatic N-substitution, with the exception of the morpholino derivative IVd, giving in low yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to the corresponding 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones (VII) in good yield. In some cases of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution of III and IV, cycloaddition led directly to N,N-dialkyl derivatives VII in low yield.

Reaction of 3-hydroxy-2-phenyl-3, 4-dihydroquinazoline ( 3 ) with phenacyl bromides was carried out either in dry acetonitrile or dimethylformamide to give 2-phenyl-4-phenacylthio-3-quinazolinium N-oxides 7 or 2-phenyl-4-phenacylidene-1H-3-quinazolinium N-oxides' 8 , respectively.     

An unusual arylation of 4-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline

Treatment of 4-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-6 ]quinoline (II) with phosphorus oxychloride and a dialkylaniline resulted in the introduction of a p-dialkylaminophenyl group at position-5, and reduction of the central (pyridine) ring, as well as substitution of oxygen by chlorine at po-sition-4, forming compounds considered to be 4-chloro-5-(p-dialkylaminophenyl)-5, 10-dihydro-pyrimido[4,5-6 ]quinolines (XV). Several 4-oxo-3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-b ]quinolines having phenyl substituents at position-5 were synthesized unequivocally, and could be readily reduced to the corresponding 4-oxo-5-phenyl-3,4,5,10-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-6]quinolines, and the 4-oxo group replaced by chlorine, in the usual manner, leading to compounds related structurally to XV. Comparison of the chemical and physical properties of these compounds established the structure of XV, and a mechanism which rationalizes the formation of XV from II is presented.

By reaction of 6-dimethylamino-5-oxo-2-phenyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazoline with hydrazine, phenylhydrazine, 4-bromo-, 4-chlorophenylhydrazines, and also reaction of 6-dimethylaminomethylene-5-oxo-2-(4-pyridyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazoline with hydrazine, 4-methoxy- and 2-carboxyphenylhydrazines, we have obtained the corresponding 7-phenyl(4-pyridyl)-substituted 1H(2H)- or 1-aryl-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[3,4-f]quinazolines. Methylation of 7-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1(2H)-pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinazoline by methyl iodide led to its 2-methyl derivative.     

Synthesis of 3-(Tetritol-1-YL)-6-Phenyl-1,2,4-Triazolo[3,4-a]Phthalazines and Conformational Analysis of their Acetates

ABSTRACT

Condensation of 1-hydrazino-4-phenylphthalazine with D-arabinose, L-arabinose, D-lyxose, and D-xylose gave the corresponding 3-(tetritol-l-yl)-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazines (acyclic C-nucleoside analogs). D-Ribose, on the other hand, reacted with the same hydrazine to give the corresponding aldehydo-D-ribo-(4-phenyl-1-phthalazinyl) hydrazone. Catalytic dehydrogenative cyclization of this hydrazone with palladium-on-charcoal affected its transformation into the corresponding triazolophthalazine. Acetylation of the prepared acyclic C-nucleoside analogs gave the corresponding tetra-O-acetyl derivatives, the conformational analysis of which has been studied using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Results of some biological activities of the prepared compounds are reported.

On treatment of 1 with nitrous acid gave the 8H-pyrazolo[3,4-e]tetrazolo-[5,1-c]-as-triazine 9 . Compound 1 underwent ring closure with carbon disulphide or ethyl chloroformate to 1,7-dihydro-8H-pyrazolo[3,4-e]-s-triazolo[3,4-c]-as-triazine derivatives 10 and 12 .

Primary amines also reacted with 3 in the same manner. The bis iminium salts, N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-N,N'-[2-(2-phenyl-4H-l-benzopyran-4-ylidene)-1,3-propanediylidene]-bis(immium perclilorate) ( 4 ) and the corresponding thiapyran derivative ( 5 ), react with ammonia to give 5-dimethylamino-2-phenyl-5H-1-benzopyrano[3,4-c]pyridine ( 10 ) and the thia analog 11 . The reactions of 4 and 5 with primary amines give 3-alkyl-5-dimethylamino-2-phenyl-5H-l-beiizopyrano[3,4-c]pyridinium perclilorate salts or the corresponding thiapyrano compounds. Compounds 4 and 5 react with secondary amines by exchanging the dimethylimino groups with the secondary amine and addition of the amine at the 2-position of the pyran or thiapyran ring.     

Synthesis and anticancer evaluation of some novel N,O,S heterocyclic compounds pendant to 3-methyl-5-cyano-6-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)pyrimidine and other related fused pyrimidines

The key starting compound 5-cyano-6-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-thiouracil ( 1 ) was synthesized and allowed to undergo electrophilic substitution with methyl iodide to give the corresponding 6-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile ( 2 ). Nucleophilic substitution on compound 2 with hydrazine hydrate led to the corresponding 2-hyrazinopyrimidone intermediate 3 . Compound 3 underwent several substitution and cyclization reactions with β-ketoester, β-ketone, alkyl halides, arylisothiocyanate, or aromatic aldehydes followed by cyclization reactions to give the corresponding N,O,S heterocyclic compounds incorporated into pyrimidine moiety and/or the related S-triazino[3,4-b]pyrimidine derivatives 4 - 18 . Anticancer evaluation of some representative examples of newly synthesized compounds was carried out against MCF-7, HCT116 cell lines. Some of the newly synthesized compounds showed significant activity.

However, when ketones Ia-e were refluxed with cyanoacetamide for one hour in the presence of sodium ethoxide or piperidine, they gave the corresponding 4-aryl-3-cyano-3,4-dihydro-6-phenyl-2-(1H)pyridones IIIa-e, which upon heating with selenium gave the corresponding 2-pyridones VI. The structures of the products are based on chemical and spectroscopic evidence.
