Pyridinethiones. VIII. The aldol and wittig condensations of 3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones, -thiones and -selones. Preparation of new cyanopyridones

Condensations of 1-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones, -thiones and -selones with methyl ketones such as acetophenone give the corresponding chalcones in high yields. Geometry at the vinyl hydrogens is E. These chalcones can be cyclized with ethyl cyanoacetate in the presence of ammonium acetate to form new 3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridones. An effective “one-pot” preparation is worked out and an intermediate from the cyclization reaction is isolated. Via the Wittig reaction it is possible to prepare condensation products from 1-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones and -selones with mainly Z geometry at the vinyl hydrogens.     

Pyridinethiones. XV. 3-Methylthio-2-pentene-1,5-diones as synthons for 4-methylthio-2(1H)-pyridinethiones,and synthesis of 4-methylene-1,4-dihydropyridines

Starting from α-oxoketene dithioacetals the 3-methyithio-1,5-pentenedione enolates 4 obtained from ketones 3 give 4-methylthio-2(1H)-pyridinethiones with isothiocyanates. Enolates 4 can be alkylated with methyl iodide at C-2, giving 5-methyl-4-methylthio-2-(1H)-pyridmethiones with isothiocyanates. The S-alkylated pyridinethiones react with the anion of malodinitrile, giving 4-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-1,4-dihydropyridines.     

Studies on the synthesis of some styryl-3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones and polyfunctionally substituted 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]-pyridine derivatives

The 3-cyano-4,6-dimethyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione was condensed with benzaldehyde in basic solution leads to styryl-3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones. Treatment of cinnamicaldehyde with cyanothioacetamide to give cinnamylidencyanothioacetamide, which can be cyclized with the appropriate ketones to afford the 3-cyano-5,6-polymethylene-4-styryl-2(1H)-pyridinethione derivatives. The polyfunctionally substituted 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives were obtained in good yield by cyclization of 3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethione derivatives with appropriate α-halogeno carbonyl compounds and nitrile, respectively.     

Zur Synthese der 4-Dialkylamino-5,6-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridinthione sowie entsprechender 4-Alkylamino- bzw. 4-Arylaminoverbindungen

The rearrangement of 1-alkyl- and 1-aryldihydro-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones (1 a) or-ones (1 b) and of methylene compounds (2a, 2b) resp., to 4-alkylamino- and 4-arylaminodihydro-2(1H)-pyridinethiones (4 a) or-ones (4 b) takes place via the corresponding 3-alkylamino- and 3-aryl-amino-3-butenylisothiocyanates (3 a) or-isocyanates (3 b). Dialkylamino-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridinethiones (10) are formed by heating dihydro-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones (6 a) and 3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-1,3-thiazin-2-thiones (6 b) with dialkylformamides and by the reaction of secondary amines with tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,3-thiazin-2-thiones (5 a), with N,N-dialkyl-N-(3-oxobutyl)-thioureas (7) and 3-oxobutyl isothiocyanates (8). A general method for the preparation of10 is the reaction of dialkylammoniumrhodanides12, N,N-dialkylthioureas13 and dialkylammonium chlorides and KCNS, resp., with 3-alken-2-ones14 and 4-hydroxy-2-alkanones15, resp. Methyl ketones such as acetone, which readily undergo the aldol condensation, behave analogously. The reactions described take place via the intermediate aminoalkenyl isothiocyanates (9).     

Facile Synthesis of 6-Aryl-3-cyanopyridine-2-(1H)-thiones from Aryl Ketones

An improved synthesis of 6-aryl-3-cyanopyridine-2-(1H)-thiones utilizing enaminones as starting materials catalyzed by 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) was described. Moreover, a convenient one-pot conversion of aryl ketones to 6-aryl-3-cyanopyridine-2-(1H)-thiones was also developed in moderate to good yields (up to 80%).     

Pyridinethiones. IX preparation of ricinidine,thioricinidine and other 2(1H)-pyridones and -thiones related to nicotinic acid

2(1H)-Pyridones and -thiones related to 1-substituted nicotinic acid derivatives have been prepared via the corresponding l-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones and -thiones. A number of synthetic procedures for the interconversion of functional groups in these nicotinic acid derivatives are given i.e. preparation of the aldoximes, nitriles, carboxamides and carboxylic acids as well as the 3- hydroxyalkyl derivatives. The course of the basic peroxide oxidation of the l-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones is found to be very dependent upon the electronegativity of the 1-substituent. A preparation of ricinidine is also described.     

Visible-Light-Induced Photocatalytic C3-Trifluoroethylation of Quinoxalin-2-(1H)-ones

A visible-light-induced Rose bengal catalyzed C3-trifluoroethylation of quinoxalin-2-(1H)-ones is reported. A wide range of quinoxalin-2-(1H)-ones was compatible, which led to the corresponding products in moderate to good yields. A gram-scale reaction proceeded well and afforded an efficient route to prepare C3-trifluoroethylated quinoxalin-2-(1H)-ones.     

Facile synthesis of 1-(arylimino)naphthalen-2(1H)-ones from anilines and 2-naphthols promoted by NaBr/K2S2O8/CAN

An efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of 1-(arylimino)naphthalen-2(1H)-ones through the cascade reaction of anilines and 2-naphthols promoted by NaBr/K₂S₂O₈/Ce(NH₄)₂(NO₃)₆. Using this protocol, a series of 1-(arylimino)naphthalen-2(1H)-ones was obtained in good to excellent yields (17 examples, 70–92% yields). The reactions may proceed through the following steps: bromination of 2-naphthols by in-situ-generated bromine from NaBr and K₂S₂O₈ to afford 1-bromonaphthalen-2-ols, coupling of 1-bromonaphthalen-2-ols with anilines to afford the corresponding amines, and subsequent oxidation of the amines into the products by Ce(NH₄)₂(NO₃)_6. These newly obtained α-imine ketones have great potentials for synthesis of special optical materials bearing naphthalene moiety.

2-(2-Oxo-2-arylethylidene)-2,3-dihydropyrimidine-4(1H)-ones react with aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes to form the unsaturated ketones, whereas in the case of 3- and 4-benzaldehydes the corresponding trans-2-styrylpyrimidine-4(3H)-ones were obtained. A possible mechanism of hydrolytic cleavage of the product of condensation of 2-(2-oxo-2-phenylethylidene)-2,3-dihydropyrimidine-4(1H)-one with paraformaldehyde under acid catalysis and mechanochemical activation has been discussed.

Rearrangement in the series of 3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones

4-Acetyl- and 4-succinyl-3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones undergo the rearrangement into (Z)-2-(3-arylquinoxalin-2-ylidene)acetic acids accompanied by the elimination of the acyl groups. The nitration of 3-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-3,4-dihydro-quinoxalin-2(1H)-one affords 5-nitro- and 7-nitro-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines. The bromination of quinoxalin-2-ones in AcOH gives 3-aryl-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines and the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives, with the former products predominating.

1,6-Additions to 3-Methyl-5-methylidene-2(5H)-furanone Derivatives The anions of thiophenol, methyl malonate and malononitrile react with 3-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2 (4H)-benzofuranone ( 1c ) by the formation of the corresponding 1,6-addition products cis- 5c (63%), trans- 6 (42%) and trans- 7 (76%), respectively.

The selective preparation of 1,4-diaryl-6-methyl- and 1,6-diaryl-4-methyl-2-(1H)pyrimidinones
