The structure of 1-(4-hydroxy-4,6,6-trimethyl-2-oxo-3-piperidyl)pyridinium chloride has been established. Reasons have been found influencing the regiodirection of cyclization of pyridinium derivatives of N-(3-oxoalkyl)chloroacetamides.     

Selective method for the preparation of isomeric N-alkyl and N-aryl-3(5)-amino-5(3)-hydroxy-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamides

As part of a program to develop novel mechanism based skeletal muscle relaxants we identified 5-amino-3-hydroxy-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide (1) as a potential structural lead. This highly functionalized pyrazole was prepared via a published procedure [1] (Scheme 1, R¹ = R¹ = H), which utilized 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide as an aminocarbonyl transfer reagent, to give with cyanoacethydrazide the semicarbazide intermediate 6 . Base catalyzed cyclization of 6 afforded the initial lead compound. This reaction scheme was extended to the synthesis of additional 4-alkyl- and 4-aryl-5-amino-3-hydroxy-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamides (Table 1).     

2-(3-Acetylamino-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl)-methyl-4(3H)-quinazolinones

Beckmann rearrangement of N-[3-(1-hydroxyimino)ethyl-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl]acetylanthranilic acid, and its 5-bromo and 4-chloro derivatives gives the corresponding N-(3-acetylamino-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl)acetylanthranilic acids. Treatment of these acylanthranilic acids with formamide gives 2-(3-acetylamino-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl)methyl-4(3H)-quinazoline and its 6-bromo and 7-chloro derivatives.     

Synthesis of certain alkenyl purines and purine analogs

Synthesis of alkenyl derivatives of certain purines and purine analogs is described. Direct alkylation of the sodium salt of 6-chloropurine (1) either with 1-bromo-2-pentene or 4-bromo-2-methyl-2-butene in N,N-dimethylformamide furnished N-7, 4a and N-9, 3a , 3b alkenyl derivatives. Similar alkylation of 2-amino-6-chloropurine (2) provided the corresponding N-7, 4c-4e and N-9, 3c-3e alkenyl derivatives. Acid hydrolysis of these chloro derivatives 3a-3e, 4a,c-e furnished the corresponding alkenyl hypoxan-thines 6a, 6b and 7a or alkenyl guanines 6c-6e and 7c-7e. Treatment of 3a-3d with thiourea in absolute ethanol provided the corresponding 6-thio derivatives 5a-5d. Alkylation of the sodium salt of either purine-6-carboxamide (8) or 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (10) gave mainly one isomer 9a, 9b and 11a, 11b. The direct alkylation of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (12) gave N-3 alkenyl derivatives 13a, 13b , and the N-7 alkenyl derivatives 16a, 16b have been prepared starting from the 4-chloro derivative 14 . Synthesis of 2-amino-7-(2-penten-1-yl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (19a) has been accomplished starting from 2-amino-4-methoxypyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (17) . These alkenyl derivatives were found to be devoid of anti-HCMV activity in vitro.     

Electrophilic cyclization of α- and β-geranyl acetates by mercury(II) trifluoroacetate

Electrophilic cyclization of β-geranyl acetate promoted by mercury(II) trifluoroacetate leads to mixtures of α- and γ-5αH-cyclogeranyl acetate derivatives and 6α-hydroxy-5αH-and 6α-hydroxy-5βH-cyclogeranyl acetate derivatives mercurated at the C-3 atom. The ratio of the unsaturated and hydroxymercurated products depends on the reaction conditions. α-Geranyl acetate reacts with mercury(II) trifluoroacetate to give a mixture of 6α-hydroxy-5αH-and 6α-hydroxy-5βH-geranyl acetates, mercurated at C-9, with an equatorial mercurated methylene group at C-4. The mercury-containing groups in mercurated cyclogeranyl derivatives can easily be reduced or replaced by an oxygen-containing functional group; this constitutes a convenient route to polyfunctional cyclogeranyl derivatives that are difficult to obtain.

Synthesis of 3-Hydroxy-6-Methyl- and 3-Hydroxy-2-(2-phenylethyl)pyridines and Their Sulfur-Containing Amino and Hydroxymethyl Derivatives

The aminomethylation of 3-hydroxy-6-methyl- and 3-hydroxy-2-(2-phenylethyl)pyridines by secondary amines has been investigated. It was shown that like 2-alkyl-3-hydroxypyridine aminomethylation is directed primarily to position 6 and then 4 of the pyridine ring. On heating the aminomethyl derivatives of 3-hydroxy-6-methyl- and 3-hydroxy-2-(2-phenylethyl)pyridines with acetic anhydride the corresponding acetoxy derivatives were obtained, which were converted on heating with hydrochloric or hydrobromic acids into hydroxy and bromomethyl derivatives. Isothioureidomethyl and benzimidazolylthiomethyl derivatives were synthesized by heating the bromomethyl-substituted derivative with thiourea or with 2-mercaptobenzimidazole. The structures of compounds were confirmed by data of ¹H NMR spectra. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1189–1194, August, 2005.     

Synthesis and biological activity of N-(aminoiminomethyl)-1H-indole carboxamide derivatives as Na+/H+ exchanger inhibitors

A series of N-(aminoiminomethyl)-1H-indole carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and their inhibitory potencies against the Na+/H+ exchanger were measured. Variation of the carbonylguanidine group at the 2- to 7-position of the indole ring system showed that a substitution at the 2-position improved the Na+/H+ exchanger inhibitory activity the most in vitro. This led to the synthesis and evaluation of an extensive series of N-(aminoiminomethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxamide derivatives. Derivatives having an alkyl or substituted alkyl group at the 1-position of the indole ring system showed higher levels of in vitro activities. N-(aminoiminomethyl)- 1-(2-phenylethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (49) had the strongest activity.     

A new and efficient method for the synthesis of 3-(2-nitrophenyl)pyruvic acid derivatives and indoles based on the Reissert reaction

The formation of 3-(2-nitrophenyl)pyruvic acid and its amide and ester derivatives – key compounds for the Reissert indole synthesis – was achieved under various reaction conditions via the acid catalyzed hydrolysis of 5-(2-nitrobenzyliden)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidin-4-one, which is readily available from 3-(2-nitrophenyl)oxirane-2-carboxamide. A new and highly efficient method for the synthesis of indole-2-carboxylic acid derivatives via the intramolecular reductive cyclization of o-nitrophenylpyruvic acid and its amide and ester derivatives was developed using Na₂S₂O₄ in dioxane/water at reflux.     

Synthesis of Tetrahydro-1H,7H-benzo[ij]quinolizine-1,7-dione Derivatives

Tetrahydro-1H,7H-benzo[ij]quinolizine-1,7-diones have been obtained by the cyclization of N-alkoxyphenyl-N-(2-carboxyethyl)--alanines. Fission of the ester bond occurs on cyclization of N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-N-(2-carboxyethyl)--alanine, but the cyclization of the 3,4-dialkoxyphenyl derivative leads to the formation of 9-alkoxy-8-hydroxy-2,3,5,7-tetrahydro-1H,7H-benzo[ij]quinolizine-1,7-diones. The corresponding dioximes and diphenylhydrazones were obtained.     

C-acylation of heterocyclic keto-enols Communication 10. Cyclization of 3-acyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridone phenylhydrazones and their 1-methyl and 1-phenyl derivatives

Conclusions The cyclization of 3-acyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2 (1H)-pyridone phenyl hydrazones and their 1-methyl and 1-phenyl derivatives goes by reaction at the 4-position of the pyridone ring with formation of the corresponding 1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-4(5H)-one derivatives.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya No. 10, pp. 1785–1788, October, 1966.     

Preparation and antiviral properties of new acyclic, achiral nucleoside analogues: 1- or 9-[3-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)prop-1-enyl]nucleobases and 1- or 9-[2,3-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)propyl]nucleobases

Acyclic, achiral nucleoside derivatives 1b-e of adenine, cytosine, 5-methylcytosine, and guanine, containing a 3-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)prop-1-enyl group on N-1 or N-9, have been prepared analogously to the previously described thymine derivative 1a. In contrast to the adenine and guanine derivatives, the cytosine derivative 9 was unstable, and was obtained in a low yield due to side reactions. These include cleavage of the propenyl group from the base, and the formation of a bicyclic compound. The thymine derivative, although stable under neutral conditions, likewise underwent a reversible cyclization reaction (Michael addition) in the presence of acids or bases. The 5-methylcytosine derivative was stable under neutral and basic conditions. Four other nucleoside derivatives 26a-d containing a 2,3-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)propyl group on N-1 or N-9, three of which are new, have likewise been prepared. All compounds were evaluated as antiviral agents against HIV-1 and HSV-1 but were devoid of antiviral activity.     

Synthesis of potential biologically active 1,2-benzothiazin-3-yl-quinazolin-4(3H)-ones

A series of potential biologically active 2-(4-hydroxy-1,1-dioxido-2H-1,2-benzothiazin-3-yl)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones was synthesized in a straight forward manner by condensation of respective 4-hydroxy-1,2-benzothiazine-1,1-dioxides with anthranilamide followed by simple and high throughput cyclization of N-[2-(aminocarbonyl)phenyl]-4-hydroxy-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide-1,1-dioxides. All the synthesized compounds were subjected to preliminary evaluation for their biological activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Some of the assayed compounds showed marked activity against Bacillus subtilis.     

Cyclizations of N-(1-Chloro-2,2,2-trihaloethylidene)-O-methylurethanes with 5-Amino-3-methylisoxazole and 3-Amino-5-methylisoxazole

N-(1-Chloro-2,2,2-trihaloethylidene)-O-methylurethanes undergo cyclization with 5-amino-3-methylisoxazole and 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole to give respectively 6-trihalomethylisoxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones and 2-trihalomethyl-4H-isoxazolo[2,3-a]-1,3,5-triazin-4-ones.     

Synthesis of 3-S-hetaryl-substituted pyridin-2(1H)-ones and 5,6-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-ones*

A method has been developed for the synthesis of 3-S-hetaryl-substituted pyridin-2(1H)-ones and 5,6-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-ones based on the base catalyzed cyclization of N-(3-oxoalkyl)- and N-(3-oxoalkenyl)amides which contain a divalent sulfur atom in an α-position to a carbamoyl group and bound to the heterocycle.

Deprotonated N-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)amino Acids Undergo Cyclization in Solution and the Gas Phase

The collisionally activated mass spectral fragmentations of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)alanine and phenylalanine [M - H](-) may be gas-phase analogs of the base-catalyzed cyclization of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)amino acids in aqueous dioxane. This latter reaction is one source of the 2-substituted 5-nitro-1H-benzimidazole-3-oxides, which are antibacterial agents. The fragmentation of both compounds, established by tandem mass spectrometric experiments and supported by molecular modeling using DFT methods, indicate that the [M - H](-) ions dissociate via sequential eliminations of CO(2) and H(2)O to produce deprotonated benzimidazole-N-oxide derivatives. The gas-phase cyclization reactions are analogous to the base-catalyzed cyclization in solution, except that in the latter case, the reactant must be a dianion for the reaction to occur on a reasonable time scale. The cyclization of N-(2-nitrophenyl)phenylalanine, which has one less nitro group, requires a stronger base for the cyclization than the compound with a second nitro group at the 4-position. Following losses of CO(2) and H(2)O are expulsions of both neutral molecules and free radicals, the latter being examples of violations of the even-electron ion rule.

Some of these compounds were prepared using microwave-assisted reaction conditions, that provided higher yields in shorter times than the conventional methods.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Mononuclear Zn(II) Complex with Tridentate Schiff Base,Zn(C_(12)H_(18)N_2O)(NCS)_2

1 INTRODUCTION In recent years there has been considerable and increasing interest in the synthesis of transition metal complexes with multidentate Schiff base ligands[1~4] because such ligands can accommodate one, two or more metal centers and may synthesize homo and/or heteronuclear metal complexes with interesting ste- reochemistry[5, 6]. In addition, these metal complexes can be used for biological modeling applications, catalysis, design of molecular ferromagnet and mate- rials chemis…     

Synthesis of substituted 1,2-benzoquinones and substituted 3-hydroxy-4 (1H) -pyridinones: Application of oxidation-Michael addition in organic synthesis

Catechol (1) and 2-ethoxy-2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinone (4) derivatives can be oxidized to give ortho-quinone of 1,2-benzoquinone (2) and 2-ethoxy-2-ethyl-l,2(2H)-pyridine-3,4-dione (5) that subsequently undergo Michael addition with nucleophiles. This reaction served a convenient route to synthesize 4,5-disubstituted-l,2-benzoquinones (3a-c) and 6-substituted-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinones (6a-f) .
