Studies on the reactions of cyclic oxalyl compounds with hydrazines or hydrazones : Synthesis and reactions of 4‐benzoyl‐1‐(3‐nitrophenyl)‐5‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazole‐3‐carboxylic acid

The 1H‐pyrazole‐3‐carboxylic acid 2 , obtained from the furan‐2,3‐dione 1 and N‐Benzylidene‐N'‐(3‐nitrophenyl) hydrazine, was converted via reactions of its acid chloride 3 with various alcohols or N‐nucleo‐philes into the corresponding ester or amide derivatives 4 or 5 , respectively. Nitrile 6 and anilino‐pyrazole acid 7 derivatives of 2 were also obtained by dehydration of 5a in a mixture of SOCl₂ with DMF and reduction of 2 with sodium polysulphide, respectively.

The reaction of 2 with 2‐hydrazinopyri‐dine provided hydrazono‐pyrazole acid derivative 10 , which was decarboxylated to give hydrazono‐pyra‐zole derivative 11 . Pyrazolo[4,3‐d]oxazinone 12 and 2‐quinolyl pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyridazine 13 derivatives were also prepared by cyclocondensation reactions of 2 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and 7 with acetaldehyde, respectively.

The reaction of 2‐amino‐4,5‐dimethyl‐ thiophene‐3‐carboxamide with iso(and isothio) cyanates for the synthesis of thieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidines has been investigated. The reactions under microwave irradiation in the presence of N,N‐dimethyl acetamide as solvent gave 5,6‐dimethylthieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione, 5,6‐dimethyl‐2‐thioxo‐2,3‐dihy‐ drothieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐4(1H)‐one, and 2‐aryla‐ mino‐5,6‐dimethylthieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one derivatives. These reactions probably proceed through intermediates 4,5‐dimethyl‐2‐substitutedcarbamoth‐ ioylaminothiophene‐3‐carboxamides. Two of these intermediates were isolated. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Syntheses of thiopyrone and pyrone derivatives by photocyclization reaction of 3‐aryl‐2‐( Benzothien‐3‐yl)propenoic acids

Naphtho[1,2‐b][1]benzothiophene‐6‐carboxylic acids, 6H‐benzo[b]naphtho[2,3‐d]thiopyran‐6‐ones and 6H‐benzo[b]naphtho[2,3‐d]pyran‐6‐ones were synthesized in one step by the photocyclization reaction of 3‐aryl‐2‐([1]benzothien‐3‐yl)propenoic acids. The photocyclization reaction did not occur when the 3‐aryl group contained the electron‐withdrawing nitro group.

The difference between the chemical shift values of H12 for these two compounds is attributed to different molecular geometries.

Conversion of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones to 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones: synthesis,spectroscopic characterization and the structures of four products and one ring‐opened derivative

An efficient synthesis of 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones, involving the diazotization of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones in weakly acidic solution, has been developed and the spectroscopic characterization and crystal structures of four examples are reported. The molecules of 1‐phenylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₉N₃O₂, (I), are linked into sheets by a combination of C—H…N and C—H…O hydrogen bonds, while the structures of 1‐(2‐methylphenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₆H₁₁N₃O₂, (II), and 1‐(3‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₈ClN₃O₂, (III), each contain just one hydrogen bond which links the molecules into simple chains, which are further linked into sheets by π‐stacking interactions in (II) but not in (III). In the structure of 1‐(4‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, (IV), isomeric with (III), a combination of C—H…O and C—H…π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the molecules into sheets. When compound (II) was exposed to a strong acid in methanol, quantitative conversion occurred to give the ring‐opened transesterification product methyl 2‐[4‐hydroxy‐1‐(2‐methylphenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐5‐yl]benzoate, C₁₇H₁₅N₃O₃, (V), where the molecules are linked by paired O—H…O hydrogen bonds to form centrosymmetric dimers.     

Selenium heterocycles XLIV. Syntheses of 8,9‐dihydro‐1,2,3‐thiadiazolo[4,5‐a]‐4,7‐dihydroxynaphthalene and 1,2,3‐selenadiazolo[4,5‐a]‐4,7‐dimethoxynaphthalene

The reaction of thionyl chloride with the semicarbazone 2 gave 4,5‐dihydro‐6,9‐dihydroxynaphtho‐[1,2‐d][1,2,3]thiadiazole ( 3 ) instead of 4,5‐dihydro‐6,9‐dimethyoxynaphtho[1,2‐d][1,2,3]thiadiazole ( 4 ). Selenium dioxide oxidation of compound 2 gave 4,5‐dihydro‐6,9‐dimethyoxynaphtho[1,2‐d][1,2,3]selenadiazole ( 5 ). Oxidation of compound 5 with 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐1,4‐benzoquinone afforded 6,9‐dimethyoxynaphtho[1,2‐d][1,2,3]selenadiazole ( 6 ).

Ethyl 7‐amino‐3‐(3‐methyl‐5‐oxo‐1‐phenyl‐2‐pyrazolin‐4‐yl)‐5‐aryl‐5H‐thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxylate was hydrolyzed with an ethanolic sodium hydroxide and the sodium salt thus formed underwent cyclization with acetic anhydride to afford 2‐methyl‐7‐(3‐methyl‐5‐oxo‐1‐phenyl‐2‐pyrazolin‐4‐yl)‐5‐arylthiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimido[4,5‐d]oxazin‐4(5H)‐one. This compound was transformed to related heterocyclic systems via its reaction with various reagents. The biological activity of the prepared compounds was tested against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria as well as yeast‐like and filamentous fungi. They revealed in some cases excellent biocidal properties.     

Mononuclear nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes with deprotonated forms of the tripodal hexadentate ligand 1,3‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzylidene)‐2‐(2‐hydroxybenzylideneaminomethyl)‐2‐methylpropane‐1,3‐diamine

In the crystal structures of both title compounds, [1,3‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzylidene)‐2‐methyl‐2‐(2‐oxidobenzylideneaminomethyl)propane‐1,3‐diamine]nickel(II) [2‐(2‐hydroxybenzylideneaminomethyl)‐2‐methyl‐1,3‐bis(2‐oxidobenzylidene)propane‐1,3‐diamine]nickel(II) chloride methanol disolvate, [Ni(C₂₆H_25.5N₃O₃)]₂Cl·2CH₄O, and [1,3‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzylidene)‐2‐methyl‐2‐(2‐oxidobenzylideneaminomethyl)propane‐1,3‐diamine]zinc(II) perchlorate [2‐(2‐hydroxybenzylideneaminomethyl)‐2‐methyl‐1,3‐bis(2‐oxidobenzylidene)propane‐1,3‐diamine]zinc(II) methanol trisolvate, [Zn(C₂₆H₂₅N₃O₃)]ClO₄·[Zn(C₂₆H₂₆N₃O₃)]·3CH₄O, the 3d metal ion is in an approximately octahedral environment composed of three facially coordinated imine N atoms and three phenol O atoms. The two mononuclear units are linked by three phenol–phenolate O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a dimeric structure. In the Ni compound, the asymmetric unit consists of one mononuclear unit, one‐half of a chloride anion and a methanol solvent molecule. In the O—H...O hydrogen bonds, two H atoms are located near the centre of O...O and one H atom is disordered over two positions. The Ni^II compound is thus formulated as [Ni(H_1.5L)]₂Cl·2CH₃OH [H₃L is 1,3‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzylidene)‐2‐(2‐hydroxybenzylideneaminomethyl)‐2‐methylpropane‐1,3‐diamine]. In the analogous Zn^II compound, the asymmetric unit consists of two crystallographically independent mononuclear units, one perchlorate anion and three methanol solvent molecules. The mode of hydrogen bonding connecting the two mononuclear units is slightly different, and the formula can be written as [Zn(H₂L)]ClO₄·[Zn(HL)]·3CH₃OH. In both compounds, each mononuclear unit is chiral with either a Δ or a Λ configuration because of the screw coordination arrangement of the achiral tripodal ligand around the 3d metal ion. In the dimeric structure, molecules with Δ–Δ and Λ–Λ pairs co‐exist in the crystal structure to form a racemic crystal. A notable difference is observed between the M—O(phenol) and M—O(phenolate) bond lengths, the former being longer than the latter. In addition, as the ionic radius of the metal ion decreases, the M—O and M—N bond distances decrease.     

A Facile Synthesis of 2‐Substituted 2,3‐Dihydro‐4(1H)‐Azuleno[2,1‐d]Pyrimidinones

A facile, efficient, and novel approach to access 2‐substituted 2,3‐dihydro‐4(1H)‐azuleno[2,1‐d]pyrimidinones was developed by condensation of 2‐amino‐1‐carbamoyl‐3‐phenylazulene with ary1 aldehydes or ketones in ionic liquids by catalyzed p‐toluenesulfonic acid.     

A Novel Synthesis of Quinazolines by Cyclization of 1‐(2‐Isocyanophenyl)alkylideneamines Generated by the Treatment of 2‐(1‐Azidoalkyl)phenyl Isocyanides with NaH

A new and efficient method for the synthesis of quinazolines has been developed. Thus, N‐[2‐(1‐azidoalkyl)phenyl]formamides 1 are dehydrated with POCl₃ to give the corresponding 2‐(1‐azidoalkyl)phenyl isocyanides 2 , which are then treated with NaH in DMF at 0° to give quinazolines 6 in satisfactory yields via cyclization of 1‐(2‐isocyanophenyl)alkylideneamine intermediates 4 . This methodology can be applied to the synthesis of the 7‐azaanalogs of quinazolines, i.e., pyrido[3,4‐d]pyrimidines 9 .
