Reaction of organozine reagents derived from dialkyl 2,2-dibromomalonates and methyl 4,4-dibromo-3-oxoalkanoates with 2-oxochromene-3-carboxamides

Organozinc compounds obtained by treatment of dialkyl 2,2-dibromomalonates with zinc reacted with N-substituted 2-oxochromene-3-carboxamides to give dialkyl 1a-R-carbamoyl-2-oxo-1a,7b-dihydro-2H-cyclopropa[c]chromene-1,1-dicarboxylates or alkyl 2-R-1,3,4-trioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H,9bH-chromeno[3′,4′:1,3]-cyclopropa[1,2-c]pyrrole-9c-carboxylates. Reactions of N-substituted 2-oxochromene-3-carboxamides with zinc enolates derived from methyl 4,4-dibromo-3-oxoalkanoates led to the formation of the corresponding 9c-alkyl-2-R-2,3-dihydrochromeno[3′,4′:1,3]cyclopropa[1,2-c]pyrrole-1,3,4-triones.     

Synthesis of 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles and features of their NMR spectra

Two different methods leading to 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles were investigated. Reactions of 3-aminocrotonirile with substituted salicylaldehydes provided 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles with the same substituent on positions 2 and 4 of the system. The reaction of 3-aminocrotonirile with variety of substituted 3-acetylcoumarins lead to 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles with different substituents on positions 2 and 4. The structures of the products were confirmed by spectroscopic methods. The presence of nitrile moiety in the structures with fixed geometry caused the highly downfield shift of the aromatic proton at position 10 in ¹H NMR spectrum. The electronic factor of the substituents caused variation of this downfield shift.

Compound 9 was also obtained directly by the reaction of 1 with 7 under reflux in better yield. The reaction of 9 with hydrazine hydrate provided the hydrazinium salt 10 , while the reactions of 9 with triethyl and trimethyl orthoformates in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]-7-undecene produced 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11a and 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11b , respectively.
