A new synthesis for 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyridines and 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]isoquinolines

Summary Condensation of cyano acid hydrazide1 with cyclopentanone in refluxing ethanolic piperidine yields hydrazone2. With mixtures of aliphatic aldehydes and different active methylene reagents,2 reacts to 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines (8a–f). Compound2 also reacts with arylidenes9a–g to give triazolopyridines10a–g. Reaction of2 with aromatic aldehydes affords compounds13a–c. Diazotation of2 with aryldiazonium chloride in ethanol at 0 °C leads to the azo adducts15a–d. The thieno-1,2,4-triazolopyridine16 is obtained by reaction of8a with elementary sulfur.16 undergoes cycloaddition with -nitrostyrene, maleic anhydride, N-arylmalemide, and acrylonitrile yielding the isoquinolines21–24. All new compounds have been characterized by their IR,¹H NMR, and mass spectra.

Synthesis and Antiproliferative Activity of Novel [1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-amine Derivatives

A series of novel N-anilino-2-substituted-5-methyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-amine derivatives was prepared and evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against two cancer cell lines,Bel-7402 and HT-1080.Most of the compounds inhibited the cell proliferation at a low concentration.Seven compounds,VI5,VI7,VI10,and VI12―VI15,possessed marked antiproliferative activity superior to that of cisplatin.Of these seven initial hits,compound VI10 was the most active.     

A synthesis of 6-functionalized 7-unsubstituted- and 7-methyl[1,2,4]azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives

6-Functionalized 7-R-4,7-dihydro[1,2,4]azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (R?=?H or Me) were synthesized by Biginelli-like reaction of formaldehyde or acetaldehyde, aminoazoles, and corresponding β-dicarbonyl precursor. Alkylation of the obtained compounds proceeds smoothly at position 4, while oxidation leads to 7-R-[1,2,4]azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines formation. 6-Ethoxycarbonyl derivatives could be reduced to the corresponding alcohols by LiAlH₄ and hydrolyzed to the acids.     

Differentiation between [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a] pyrimidine and [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]‐ pyrimidine regioisomers by 1H?15N HMBC experiments

The condensation of malonoaldehyde derivatives with either a 3‐amino‐[1,2,4]‐triazole or a 3,5‐diamino‐[1,2,4]‐triazole precursor was studied. In agreement with previous reports, two different bicycles, namely, bearing the regioisomeric [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine ( 1 ) or[1,2,4] triazolo [4,3‐a]pyrimidine ( 2 ) structural surrogates, could be obtained. We found that, depending on the triazole precursor, only one regioisomer resulted, either of the 1 or 2 series. We also observed that these two structural surrogates could be unambiguously differentiated by indirectly measuring their ¹⁵N chemical shifts by ¹H? ¹⁵N HMBC experiments. The occasional conversion of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidines to the [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine counterparts could be unequivocally determined by ¹⁵N NMR data.

Design,synthesis and antiproliferative activity of novel 2,7-disubstituted triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

In our efforts to identify novel potent anticancer agents, we synthesized a series of 2,7-disubstituted triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (6–16). Their antiproliferative activity against Bel-7402, HT-1080 and WI-38 cell lines was tested by MTT assay in vitro. Four of the compounds (9–11 and 16) displayed promising antiproliferative activity superior to gefitinib, especially compound 9. A preliminary SAR study of these derivatives was performed.

A Convenient Synthesis and Herbicidal Activity of N-phosphonoalkylpyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]-triazolo[1,5-d]pyrimidines

An important building block, diethyl [(5-amino-4-cyano-3-methylsulfanyl-pyrazol-1-yl)–(4-fluorophenyl)methyl] phosphonate (3) was efficiently synthesized via the condensation of 1-hydrazino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)methyl phosphonate (1) with 2-[bis(methylthio)methylene]malononitrile (2).3 reacted with triethyl orthoformate to afford diethyl [(4-cyano-5-ethoxymethyleneamino-3-methylsulfanyl-pyrazol-1-yl)-(4-fluorophenyl)methyl] phosphonate (4), which reacted with various acyl hydrazines in refluxing 2-methoxyethanol to provide the target compounds (5) in good yields directly. The results of preliminary bioassay indicated that compounds 5 possess potent herbicidal activity against the roots of monocotyledonous (barnyard grass) and dicotyledonous (oil rape) plants, and could be further developed as potential herbicides.     

Azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and Their Condensed Analogs with Anticoagulant Activity

Hypercytokinemia, or cytokine storm, is one of the severe complications of viral and bacterial infections, involving the release of abnormal amounts of cytokines, resulting in a massive inflammatory response. Cytokine storm is associated with COVID-19 and sepsis high mortality rate by developing epithelial dysfunction and coagulopathy, leading to thromboembolism and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Anticoagulant therapy is an important tactic to prevent thrombosis in sepsis and COVID-19, but recent data show the incompatibility of modern direct oral anticoagulants and antiviral agents. It seems relevant to develop dual-action drugs with antiviral and anticoagulant properties. At the same time, it was shown that azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines are heterocycles with a broad spectrum of antiviral activity. We have synthesized a new family of azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and their condensed polycyclic analogs by cyclocondensation reactions and direct CH-functionalization and studied their anticoagulant properties. Five compounds among 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-ones and 5-alkyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]purin-8-ones demonstrated higher anticoagulant activity than the reference drug, dabigatran etexilate. Antithrombin activity of most active compounds was confirmed using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated blood to mimic the conditions of cytokine release syndrome. The studied compounds affected only the thrombin time value, reliably increasing it 6.5–15.2 times as compared to LPS-treated blood.

It is notable that aqueous medium turned out to be crucial for the chemoselective formation of the title compounds. Compared with literature protocols, this new method showed advantages such as simple and sustainable procedure, commercially available starting materials, and convenient reuse of the reaction medium together with the copper catalyst.
