Synthesis of 7H-indolo[1,2-a]quinolinium derivatives via oxidative photocyclization of 3H-indolium salts using blue LED photoreactor

Oxidative photocyclization of 1-phenyl-2-(2-arylethenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-3H-indolium perchlorates leading to 7H-indolo[1,2-a]quinolinium salts was investigated. The synthesis was performed under Vis irradiation. Blue LEDs emitting at 454.5 nm were used as the light source. The reaction progress was followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The products were characterized by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Reaction time depended on the position of the UV-Vis absorption band of both the substrates and products. The results revealed that the application of blue LED photoreactor makes the synthesis of 7H-indolo[1,2-a]quinolinium easier and more convenient.

A new method for the synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines and pyrrolo[1,2-a] quinoxalines

A new method is proposed for the synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines and pyrrolo[1,2-a]-quinoxalines. By the alkylation of sodium derivatives of 2-acylpyrroles with -bromo carbonyl compounds or their acetals and subsequent treatment of the reaction products with ammonium acetate in acetic acid, a number of derivatives of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine, including the first member of the class, pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine itself, have been obtained. Similarly, from 2-benzoylpyrrole and the dimethyl ketal of -bromocyclohexanone was obtained 4-phenyltetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline, which readily dehydrogenates in the presence of Raney nickel to form 4-phenylpyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, Vol. 6, No. 8, pp.1048–1050, August, 1970.

Microwave-assisted combinatorial synthesis of polysubstituent imidazo[1,2-a]quinoline, pyrimido[1,2-a]quinoline and quinolino[1,2-a]quinazoline derivatives

A series of unusual fused heterocyclic compound derivatives, consisting of a pyridine and a imidazole or pyrimidine core, with a bridgehead nitrogen, were successfully synthesized by a microwave-assisted, three-component domino reaction of aldehydes, enaminones, and malononnitrile. In this one-pot reaction, up to five new bonds were formed accompanied by generating the lactam group. This method has the advantages of short synthetic route, operational simplicity, increased safety for small-scale high-speed synthesis, and minimal environment impact.     

Electrochemical and electron spin resonance studies of selected benzazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium salts

The electrochemical reduction of the chloride or perchlorate salts of benzazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium ion and several of its analogues is reported. The compounds studied are the perchlorate salt of 3-nitrobenzothiazolo-and 3-nitro-9-methoxybenzothiazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium, and the chloride salts of 7-ethyl-, 3-nitro-7-methyl-, 3-nitro-7-ethyl-, 3-nitro-7-isopropyl-, 3-nitro-7-butyl- and 3-nitro-7-benzylbenzimidazolo[3,2-a]-quinolinium, respectively. Cyclic voltammetry of the corresponding 3-nitrobenzothiazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium derivatives in N,N-dimethylformamide shows an irreversible peak potential at -0.6 and a quasi-reversible peak at -(1.2–1.3) volts, respectively, relative to the standard calomel electrode. In contrast, the corresponding 3-nitrobenzimidazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium derivatives show, in general, reversible peaks at near -0.8 and -(1.2–1.4) volts, respectively. Upon electrolytic reduction, only the nitro-substituted derivatives produced observable electron paramagnetic resonance electron spin resonance spectra. This observation is explained in terms of the stabilization of the radicals produced by the nitro group. Theoretical MM+/AM1/UHF calculations support the idea that the larger nitrogen splitting is caused by N-12 and the minor splittings by N-7 in the benzimidazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium ion series.
