Synthesis and reactions of “biginelli-compounds”. Part I

Various reactions of 2-oxo(or thioxo)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives (Biginelli-compounds) were investigated. The site of methylation and acylation on 6-methyl-4-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester 1a and its 2-oxo derivative 9a was studied. The synthesis of pyrimido[2,3-b]thiazines and thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines was accomplished by condensation of 1a with 1,3-and 1,2-dielectrophiles. A Dimroth-like rearrangement yielding 6H-1,3-thiazines can be observed when 1a was treated with dimethylformamide and phosphorus oxychloride. The formation of indeno[1,2-d]pyrimidines can be achieved by intramolecular Friedl-Crafts acylation of 9a and 13 , respectively. Finally a route for the preparation of 4,6-disubstituted-pyrimidine-5-carbonitriles is presented, starting with Biginelli-compound 25 .

Reaction of 1,3-diaryl-2,3-dibromo-1-propanones with urea in basic and acidic medium. Synthesis of pyrimidine,imidazoline and imidazolidine derivatives

Reaction of 1,3-diaryl-2,3-dibromo-1-propanones 1 with urea in basic medium afforded 4,6-diaryl-5-bromo-5,6-dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)-ones 4 . Oxidation of these bromopyrimidines 4 in dimethylsulphoxide gave 4,6-diaryl-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-2,5-diones 6 , which were further converted to their thione analogues 7 . Reaction of 1,3-diaryl-2,3-dibromo-1-propanones 1 with urea, phenylurea and sym-diphenylurea in glacial acetic acid medium gave in appreciable yields 4-phenyl-5-α-(bromoarylmethyl)imidazolin-2-one 8 and 1,3-diphenyl-4-aroyl-5-arylimidazolidin-2-one 11 respectively.     

New thiourea organocatalysts and their application for the synthesis of 5-(1H-indol-3-yl)methyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones a source of chiral 3-indoylmethyl ketenes

The stereoselective properties of modified thiourea organocatalysts were tested in the Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indole with 5-arylidene-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones, which produces chiral 5-((1H-indol-3-yl)(aryl)methyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones. Based on a tentative reaction mechanism for ((S)-N-benzyl-2-(3-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thioureido)-N,3,3-trimethylbutanamide organocatalysts, modifications were applied in four selected regions. Systematic structure-stereoselectivity relationship study allowed designing the best efficient organocatalyst for the investigated Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indole with 5-arylidene-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones.     

Reactions of enamines with fluorinated acyl chlorides----Synthesis of fluorinated 1,3-diketones and 1,3-keto-aldehydes

The reactions of enamines (1a-b,4,6) with fluorinated acyl chlorides (2a-d) produced fluorinated 1,3-diketones (3a-f) and 1,3-keto-aldehydes (7a-c) in good yields as well as byproducts fluorinated acylamides (5a-c).It is proposed that the reactions involve nucleophilic attack by the C-atora and/or N-atom of the enamines on acyl carbon of the fluorinated acyl chlorides.     

Studies on the Synthesis of New 3-(3,5-Diamino-1-substituted-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and 3-(2-Amino-5,7-disubstituted-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-yl)azothieno[2,3-b]pyridines

Coupling the diazonium salt of 3-amino-2-cyano-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 1 with malononitrile 2 gave 2-cyano-3-(hydrazonomalononitrile)-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 3 which then reacted with hydrazine compounds 4a-4h to yield corresponding 2-cyano-3-(3,5-diamino-1-substituted-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 5a-5h. The 2-cyano-3-(2-amino-5,7-disubstituted-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 7a-7f were obtained in good yield by the cyclocondensation reaction of 2-cyano-3-(3,5-diamino-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 5a with the appropriate 1,3-diketones 6a-6f under acidic condition.     

Chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective cyclizations of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chloroacetic acid chlorides and alpha-chloroacetic acetals

Treatment of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chlorocarboxylic acid chlorides resulted in chemo- and regioselective formation of 6-chloro3,5-dioxo esters, which were regioselectively converted into functionalised 3(2H)furanones. Chemo- and regioselective condensation of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chloroacetic dimethyl acetal afforded 6-chloro-5-methoxy-3-oxo esters, which could be regio- and stereoselectively transformed into 2-alkylidene-4-methoxytetrahydrofurans.     

Chiral ionic liquid-catalyzed Biginelli reaction: stereoselective synthesis of polyfunctionalized perhydropyrimidines

A chiral ionic liquid-catalyzed, efficient and unprecedented version of the Biginelli reaction using new variants of its active methylene component, viz. 2-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-5-one/2-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one, with aromatic aldehydes and urea/thiourea enantio- and diastereoselectively, yields 5-amino-/mercaptoperhydropyrimidines. This three-component domino cyclocondensation reaction is effected via ring transformation of an isolable intermediate in a one-pot procedure.     

Polymeric mesoions, 3. Synthesis of polymeric mesoionic 1,3-diazinium-olates via polymer analogous modification of a polythiourea from m-phenylenediamine and p-phenylene diisothiocyanate

Mesoionic poly(1,1′-(1,3-phenylene)-3,3′-(1,4-phenylene)-bis(5-decyl-2-decylthio-4,6-dioxo-1,3-diazine)) ( 6 ) was prepared by cyclisation of the isothiourea component of poly(1,1′-(1,3-phenylene)-3,3′-(1,4-phenylene)-bis(2-decylisothiourea)) ( 4 ) with decylmalonic acid (5) by use of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC). Polymer 4 was obtained by polymer analogous alkylation of poly(1,1′-(1,3-phenylene)-3,3′-(1,4-phenylene)-bisthiourea) ( 3 ). For comparison of spectroscopic data, 5-butyl-2-propylthio-4,6-dioxo-1,3-diphenyl-1,3-diazine ( 9 ) was synthesized as low molecular weight model compound.     

1,3-Dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin as a useful reagent for efficient synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones under solvent-free conditions

Efficient syntheses of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones and the corresponding thioxo derivatives using 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBH) catalysis of a one-pot three-component Biginelli reaction of aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate, and urea or thiourea under microwave irradiation are described. The advantages of this method are its short reaction times, high yields of the products, inexpensive and commercially available catalyst, and solvent-free conditions. Typical isolated yields exceed 70 % for arylaldehydes (9 examples) and aliphatic aldehydes (2 examples).     

Synthesis and structure of [2-oxo(thioxo)tetrahydropyrimidin-4-yl]calix[4]arenes

Cone-shaped di- and tetrapropoxycalix[4]arenes functionalized at the upper rim with one or two 2-oxo(thioxo)tetrahydropyrimidine residues were synthesized by the Biginelli reaction of formylcalixarenes with urea (thiourea) and methyl acetoacetate. The steric structure of the products was studied by NMR and X-ray diffraction. The Biginelli reaction with dipropoxyformylcalixarene was diastereoselective, and it quantitatively produced the corresponding meso form. Tetrapropoxydiformylcalixarenes under analogous conditions gave rise to equimolar mixtures of racemic and meso compounds. The macrocyclic skeleton of the synthesized pyrimidine-containing calixarenes in crystal and in solution has a flattened cone conformation. (5-Methoxycarbonyl-2-oxotetrahydropyrimidin-4-yl)calixarene molecules in crystal undergo self-organization to form infinite chains via repeated inclusion of the methoxy group into the cavity of the neighboring macrocycle. Selforganization of bis(5-methoxycarbonyl-2-oxotetrahydropyrimidin-4-yl)calixarene with formation of analogous chains involves intermolecular hydrogen bonding NH ... O=C.     

First Example of the Synthesis of Di(fluoroalkyl)-substituted Pyrimidines

4,5-Bis(hydroxy)-4-trifluoromethyl-6-(fluoroalkyl)hexahydropyrimidin-2-ones (thiones) have been obtained for the first time by the reaction of ureas (thioureas) with di(fluoroalkyl)-substituted 1,3-diketones and tetraols, the dehydration of which gave 2-hydroxy(mercapto)-4-trifluoromethyl-6-(fluoroalkyl)pyrimidines.     

Synthesis of New 2-[(Substituted-pyrazol-1-yl)carbonyl]-thieno[2,3b]pyridine Derivatives Using 1,3-Diketones,Alkylethoxymethylenes and Ketene Dithioacetals

The reaction of 3-amino-4,6-dimethyl-2-thieno[2,3-b]pyridine carbohydrazide ( 1 ) with appropriate 1,3-diketones 2a-2d in glacial acetic acid afforded 3-amino-2-[(3,5-disubstituted-pyrazo)-1-yl)carbonyl]-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 3a-3d. 3-Amino-2-[(5-amino-3,4-disubstituted-pyrazol-1-yl)carbonyl]-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 5a-5h were also prepared by treatment of carbohydrazide 1 with appropriate alkylethoxymethylenes and ketene dithioacetals 4a-4h , respectively.     

Reactions of 1-methyl-derivatives of 2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine with phosphorus pentachloride and phosphorus oxychloride

In the reaction of 4-phenyl- and 4,6-diphenyl-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines with phosphorus pentachloride, oxidation and dealkylation takes place in addition to chlorination and as a result one obtained 4-phenyl- and 4,6-diphenyl-1-methyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2-pyrimidones and also 4-phenyl-, (4,6-diphenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2-chloropyrimidines. 1,6-Dimethyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine in the same reaction gives 1-methyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl 6-dichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine, together with 6-chloromethylene- and 6-dichloromethylene-1-methyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-5-chloro-5-ethoxycarbonylhexahydropyrimidines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 668–671, May, 1987.     

Synthesis of N,P,S,Se-containing mono- and bicyclic compounds in reactions of isothiocyanato- and diisothiocyanato(di)chloromethyl(thio) phosphonates with hydrosulfur(seleno) compounds

Reactions of phenyl isothiocyanato(di)chloro-methyl(thio)phosphonates ( 1 ) with thiols in the presence of a base give rise to 2-alkylthio-4,5-dihydro-4-oxo(thioxo)-4-phenoxy-1,3,4-thiazaphospholes ( 5 ). Some of these compounds can also be obtained by alkylation of 2,4-dithioxo-4-phenoxy-1,3,4-thiazaphospholidine ( 4 ), which is formed in the reaction of phenyl isothiocyanatochloromethylthiophosphonate ( 1a ) with sodium hydrosulfide. The interaction of 1a with H₂Se and triethylamine results in the formation of 2,4-dithioxo-4-phenoxy-1,3,4-selenazaphospholidine ( 8 ), which when alkylated affords 2-alkylthio-4,5-dihydro-4-phenoxy-4-thioxo-1,3,4-selenazaphospholes ( 9 ) Diisothiocyanatodichloromethyl(thio)-phosphonates ( 11 ) react with α-toluenethiol in the presence of a base, giving rise to 3,7-bis(benzylthio)-1-oxo(thioxo)bicyclo[3.3.0]-4,6-dithia-2,8-diaza-1-phosphocta-2, 7-dienes ( 13 ). By the interaction of phenyl isothiocyanatotrichlorome-thylthiophosphonate ( 14 ) with ethanethiol and Et₃N, S-ethyl-N-(O-phenyl(trichloromethyl)thiophosphonyl)dithiocarbamate triethylammonium salt ( 15 ) has been formed. The molecular structures of some P,N,S,Se-containing heterocycles that we have synthesized have been studied by X-ray diffraction.     

Reactions of Bisazomethines of the Naphtalene Series with 1,3-Diketones

Bisazomethines prepared from aromatic dialdehydes and 2-naphthylamine were for the first time reacted with the following diketones: 1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5-phenyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, indandione, and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione was studied. The reactions with 1,3-diketones of the cyclohexane series yield benzophenanthridine derivatives. The reactions with indandione, depending on conditions, give either bisarylideneindandiones or bisdihydrobenzo[f]indenoquinoline. As evidenced by the ^13C NMR and IR spectra, in the case of biphenyl-4,4'-dicarbaldehyde bis[N-(2-naphthyl)imine] and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, 4,4'-bis(3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[f]quinolin-1-yl)biphenyl is formed.

2-Phenacylbenzothiazole in the Biginelli Reaction

The cyclocondensation of 2-phenacylbenzothiazole with aromatic aldehydes and urea or thiourea in the Biginelli reaction gave previously unreported 4-aryl-5-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines and their 2-thioxo analogs. An efficient procedure was developed for carrying out the three-component reaction at low temperatures. The structure peculiarities of the products were analyzed using IR, ¹H NMR, and X-ray diffraction data.
