Treatment of 3-(or-hydroxybenzyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane resulted in the formation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines, bis[α-(pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrid-3-yl)benzyl] ethers, and phenylbis(pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrid-3-yl)methanes, depending upon the presence or absence of the substituents at the 2- and/or 4-positions and the reaction conditions employed.     

3-(2-Pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines. An experimental and theoretical (DFT) study of the ring-chain isomerization

An experimental ((1)H NMR) and theoretical (DFT) study of the ring-chain-ring isomerization of 3-(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrid-7-yl derivatives (A) into 6-{[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrid-3-yl}-2-pyridyl derivatives (B) has been carried out. Based on the calculations, a mechanism of several steps will be proposed. The experimental results as well as the calculations lead to the conclusion that the A-B ratio depends on the electronic properties of the substituents.

Ring contraction of thia(seleno)diazine rings into pyrazoles in the reaction of 3-aryl-10-methyl-2H-1,3,4-thia(seleno)diazino[3, 2-a]benzimidazolium salts with bases

Reaction of 3-aryl-10-methyl-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazolium salts with triethylamine led to ring contraction of the thiadiazine ring to a pyrazole ring with the formation of a mixture of derivatives of 3-mercaptopyrazolobenzimidazole and di(pyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazolyl-3) disulfide. The disulfides were formed exclusively when these salts react with ethanolic alkali. The reaction with potassium carbonate in acetic anhydridegave3-acetylthiopyrazolo[1,5- a]benzimidazoles. 2-Aryl-4- alkylpyrazolo[1, 5- a]benzimidazoles were formed by heating thiadiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazolium salts in formamide and by treating selenodiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazolium salts with potassium carbonate in acetic anhydride.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1698–1705, 1992.

Au(i)-catalyzed and iodine-mediated cyclization of enynylpyrazoles to provide pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines

Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines and 6-iodopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines were synthesized by gold-catalyzed and iodine-mediated cyclization of enynylpyrazoles in good to excellent yields, respectively. The iodinated adducts were further converted to 6-arylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction and 6-cyanopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine by Ullmann condensation reaction. One of the cyclization adducts, 2-(4-fluorophenyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine, was converted to a p38 kinase inhibitor, 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(4-pyridinyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine, in two steps.     

Recyclization of Condensed Carbethoxypyrimidines Accompanied by Substitution of a Carbon Atom into the Heterocycle

Condensation in ethanol of ethyl ethoxymethyleneacetoacetate with systems containing an amidine fragment (substituted 3-aminopyrazoles and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) gave 6-carbethoxy-7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. Addition of base to solutions of the obtained bicyclic carbethoxy derivatives in the course of several minutes caused rearrangement to 6-acetyl-7-hydroxypyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 6-acetyl-7-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine respectively. A more prolonged refluxing in 15% aqueous alcohol solution of base caused 6-carbethoxy-7-methyl-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 6-acetyl-7-hydroxy-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine to recyclize to 7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 569–576, April, 2005.     

Condensation of 2-(acetamido)cyclohexanone with malononitrile

Depending on the conditions, condensation of 2-(acetamido)-cyclohexanone with malononitrile gives 1-acetyl-2-amino-3-cyano-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole or 2-amino-3-cyano-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole, from which substituted tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]indole and tetrahydropyrimido [4,5-b]indole were synthesized.     

3-α-Halocarbonyl derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a] benzimidazole and their reactions

3-(-haloacyl)-2,4-dialkylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles can be obtained either by brominating 3-acetylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles with bromine in acetic acid, or by acylating the 3-unsubstituted pyrazolobenzimidazoles with haloacetic halides. Halogenation of 3-acetylpyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles with bromine in acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate, and bromination with N-bromosuccinimide or 1-chlorobenzotriazole, result in deacylation to give 3,6(7)-dibromo- and 3-chloropyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles. The mono- and trihaloketones obtained have been used to prepare the corresponding aminoketones, the 3-carboxylic acid, and its derivatives.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 43–48, January, 1988.     

A general approach toward the synthesis of C-nucleoside pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazines and their 3',5'-bisphosphate C-nucleotide analogues as the first reported in vivo stable P2Y(1)-receptor antagonists

In our effort to identify potent purinergic P2Y(1) receptor antagonists as potent platelet aggregation inhibitors with enhanced metabolic stability, we developed an efficient route for the large-scale preparation of 2'-deoxy-C-nucleosides of pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine. The key strategic elements of this novel synthetic approach involved the following: (i) the use of a novel activating group, the N-methyl-N-phenylamino group, which was easily generated in high yield by treatment of the pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazin-4-one (5) with phosphorus oxychloride and dimethylaniline under high pressure, (ii) a regio- and stereospecific palladium-mediated coupling reaction of the readily available unprotected glycal 1,4-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-erythro-pent-1-enitol (4b) and the 8-iodo derivative (16), and (iii) the stereoselective reduction of the ketone group of the furanosyl ring followed by the subsequent displacement of the N-methyl-N-phenylamino group upon treatment with methylamine. The beta configuration at the anomeric C-1' position of the glycal moieties was perfectly retained throughout this conversion. This procedure afforded 8-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-2-methyl-4-(N-methylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine (21) and 8-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-xylofuranosyl)-2-methyl-4-(N-methylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine (24) with an overall yield of 50% and 39%, respectively. Finally, the conversion of nucleosides 21 and 24 to the pyrazolotriazine C-nucleotides 3',5'-bisphosphate 2 and 3',5'-cyclophosphate 26 is also described herein and represents the first reported nucleotide derivatives within the pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine series. Preliminary biological testing has shown that compound 2 strongly inhibits ADP-induced human platelet aggregation and shape change and possesses significant efficacies 30 min after injection in rat, highlighting a strong P2Y(1)-receptor antagonist activity in vitro combined with a prolonged duration of action in vivo.

1-Alkynyl- and 1-alkenyl-3-arylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridines: synthesis, photophysical properties, and observation of a linear correlation between the fluorescent wavelength and Hammett substituent constants

1-Alkynyl- and 1-alkenyl-3-arylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridines were synthesized. The Sonogashira coupling of 3-aryl-1-iodoimidazo[1,5-a]pyridines and various terminal alkynes with Pd(PPh(3))(2)Cl(2) (10 mol %) and CuI (10 mol %) in triethylamine at 80 °C for 12 h afforded the corresponding 1-alkenyl-3-arylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridines in good to excellent yields. The Mizoroki-Heck reaction of 3-aryl-1-iodoimidazo[1,5-a]pyridines and various styrene derivatives proceeded smoothly with Pd(OAc)(2) (5 mol %), IMes·HCl (10 mol %), and Cs(2)CO(3) (2 equiv) in DMA at 130 °C for 20 h to give the alkenylated imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines in moderate to high yields. The fluorescence maxima and fluorescence quantum yields of the alkynylated products were 458-560 nm and Φ(F) = 0.08-0.26 in chloroform solution, and those of the alkenylated imidazopyridines were 479-537 nm and Φ(F) = 0.03-0.13. The absorption behaviors of the obtained alkynylated and alkenylated imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines showed a good fit to the values predicted by TDDFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. In addition, the alkynylated imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines obtained showed linear correlations between the Hammett substituent constants of the substituents on the arylalkynyl group and their fluorescence wavelengths.
