Synthesis of 2-(4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)malononitriles

The base-free TiCl₄-mediated condensation of 3,5-disubstituted-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones 8 with malononitrile affords 20 difficult to access (3,5-disubstituted-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)malononitriles 7. The reaction tolerates 3,5-diaryl, diphenoxy, dimethoxy and diphenylthio substituted thiadiazinones, but not diamino, monohydroxy or dihalo substituents. Nevertheless, asymmetrically substituted 3-halo-5-phenyl- and 3-chloro-5-methoxy-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones convert into the corresponding ylidenemalononitriles in good yield. Furthermore, the condensation works well with ethyl cyanoacetate and diethyl malonate, but not with Meldrum's acid, dimedone or nitromethane. Finally, 2-(3-chloro-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)malononitrile (7q) reacts with aniline to give 4,7-diphenyl-6-(phenylimino)-6,7-dihydropyrrolo[2,3-c][1,2,6]thiadiazine-5-carbonitrile (12) in moderate yield demonstrating the potential use of these ylidenes to prepare novel 6–5 fused 4H-1,2,6-thiadiazines.

Some 2-(dialkylamino) substituted chromenylium salts

The reaction of 2-(dialkylamino)-7-methoxychromones with malononitrile in the presence of acetic anhydride afforded [2-(dialkylamino)-7-methoxy-4H-chromen-4-ylidene]malononitriles. When these compounds were refluxed with concentrated hydrochloric (or hydroiodic) acid, 2-(dialkylamino)-7-methoxy(or hydroxy)-4-methylchromenylium salts were obtained. The use of concentrated sulfuric acid or polyphosphoric acid in the hydrolysis was also investigated. The preparation of ethyl [2-(dialkylamino)-7-methoxy-4H-chromen-4-ylidene]cyanoacetates and their behavior when treated with acids are also described, as well as the synthesis of some 3-(dialkylamino)-1-methylnaphtho[2,1-b]pyrylium salts.     

Molecular modeling and cyclization reactions of 2-(4-oxothiazolidine-2-ylidene) acetonitrile

Diazotization of 2-(4-oxothiazolidine-2-ylidene) acetonitrile 1 with aryl diazonium chloride derivatives afforded 4-thiazolidinones 2a, b, whereas 3a, b derivatives produced through reaction of arylcarbonohydrazonoyl dicyanide with thioglycolic acid. Cyclization of 2a with aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile gave the expected substituted thiazolo [3,2-a] pyridines 4a, b. The reaction of 1 with anthraldehyde (1:1 molar ratio) gave the expected 4,5-dihydro-4-oxothiazole derivatives 5 which condensed with other mole p-chlorobenzaldehyde and gave the corresponding bisarylidine derivative 6. Thiazolo [3,2-a] pyridine enaminonitrile derivative 7 produced through addition of malononitrile to bisarylidine 6. Also, compound 7 reacted with other mole of malononitrile and furnished thiazolo [3,2-a] pyridine 12, furthermore, compound 7 refluxed with phenyl hydrazine, thiourea, and formic acid, to form the corresponding thiazolo [3,2-a] pyridines 13, 15 and 17, respectively. Also, compound 1 reacted with phNCS in presence of KOH and afforded 19. The molecular modeling of the synthesized compounds has been drawn and their molecular parameters were calculated. Also, valuable information is obtained from calculation of the molecular parameters including electronegativity, net dipole moment of the compounds, total energy, electronic energy, binding energy, electrophilicity index, HOMO and LUMO energy.

Synthesis of 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles

The reaction of azolylacetonitriles with γ-chlorobutyryl chlorides gave the corresponding 2-(1-R-1,3-di- hydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-ylidene)-, 2-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylidene)-, and 6-chloro-2-(4-methylthiazol-2-ylidene)-3-oxohexanenitriles. A study of the intramolecular cyclization of 2-(quinazolin-2-ylidene)-3-oxo-6-hexanenitriles and -heptanenitriles has led to the development of an efficient method for the preparation of 2-(quinazolin-2-yl)-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles. The (Z,E)-isomerism of the synthesized 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles was studied.

Synthesis of new 1-substituted 4-(2-phenylquinazolin-4-yl)-and 4-(2-phenylquinazolin-4-ylidene) thiosemicarbazides

Two new 1-substituted 4-(2-phenylquinazolin-4-yl)-and 4-(2-phenylquinazolin-4-ylidene) thio-semicarbazides were formed by a multistep domino reaction of imidoyl isothiocyanate derivative with 1,1-di-R-hydrazine in acetone solution.

Plant coumarins: V. Palladium-catalyzed amination of 2-(1,3-dibromopropan-2-ylidene)oreoselone

Palladium-catalyzed amination of 2-(1,3-dibromopropan-2-ylidene)-7H-furo[3,2-g]chromene-3,7(2H)-dione with various amines and amino acid derivatives led to the formation of the corresponding 2-(1,3-diaminopropan-2-ylidene)-substituted oreoselones. The yields depended on the catalytic system, base, and amine structure. Di- and polyazamacrocyclic furocoumarin derivatives were obtained by reactions of 2-(1,3-dibromopropan-2-ylidene)-7H-furo[3,2-g]chromene-3,7(2H)-dione with linear di- and polyamines (hexamethylenediamine, spermine, spermidine, and 3,6-dithiaoctane-1,8-diamine), catalyzed by palladium complexes.     

The parent of 2-(4,5-dihydro-1H-tetrazol-5-ylidene)-2-cyanoacetate: Synthesis and reactivity X-ray structure of (E)2-[1-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-tetrazol-5-ylidene]-2-cyanoacetate

Reaction of 3,3-diazido-2-cyanoacrylate 5 with four moles of ammonia gives tetrazolyl-bisammonium salt 7 . The key-intermediate is the amino-vinyl azide 6 which spontaneously undergoes a 1,5′ ring-closure reaction followed by double deprotonation. Treatment of 7 with hydrochloric acid yields the parent of 2-(4,5-dihydro-1H-tetrazol-5-ylidene)-2-cyanoacetate 9 (R = Me, Et) as the only tautomer. Regiospecific monoalkylation of bisammonium salt 7a with dimethyl sulfate and reaction of ammonium salt 12 with hydrochloric acid gives (E)2-(1-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-tetrazol-5-ylidene)-2-cyanoacetate ( 13 ) (X-ray structure of derivative 14 ). Compound 13 can also be obtained from vinyl azide 10 and methylamine. This experiment as well as AM1 calculations of 9a, 23 and 24 strongly favour tautomer 9a .

Substituted 2-amino-4-aryl-3-cyano-5-oxo-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines were synthesized by the reactions of 4-hydroxy-1H-thieno[2,3-b;4,5-b]dipyridin-2-ones with arylidenemalononitriles or by the three-component reactions of hydroxythienodipyridinones with aldehydes and malononitrile in DMF in the presence of triethylamine. Methods for syntheses of substituted 3-alkoxycarbonyl-6-amino-4-aryl-2-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthiomethyl)-4H-pyrans were developed on the basis of the reactions of 4-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthio)acetoacetates and arylidenemalononitriles or aldehydes and malononitrile. Ethyl 4-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthio)acetoacetate and 4-methoxybenzylidenecyanothioacetamide were used for the synthesis of 6-(pyridin-2-ylthiomethyl)-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thione.

Abstract

A series of new N′-(11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-ylidene)benzohydrazonamides 3a–3j was synthesized in excellent yields from the reaction of N³-substituted benzohydrazonamides 1 and 2-(11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-ylidene)malononitrile 2 in dichloromethane or with 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one 4 in ethyl acetate at ambient temperature. The new compounds have been characterized and screened for biological activity. Some of them showed significant antibacterial and antifungal activities. In particular, compounds 3c and 3e showed interesting activities as antibacterial agents while compounds 3a 3c, 3e, 3g, and 3i showed high antifungal activities.

A series of new (E)-2-(3-pentyl-2,6-diarylpiperidin-4-ylidene)-N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamides (1-6) were synthesized from the corresponding 3-pentyl-2,6-diarylpiperidine-4-ones condensation with phenyl thiosemicarbazide. Their chemical structures were confirmed by means of elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectral techniques and for compound 3, HOMOCOSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY, and DEPT NMR spectral techniques. From the NMR spectral data the compounds (1-6) are shown to exist in normal chair conformation with equatorial orientation of all the phenyl groups at C-2 and C-6 and pentyl group at C-3. The synthesized compounds were screened for their bacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi, and Escherichia coli and fungal activity against Candida albicans, Rhizopus sp, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus flasvus.     

Five-membered 2,3-dioxo heterocycles: CVI. Acylation of substituted (Z)-2-[1,3,4,4a,5,10b-Hexahydrophenanthridin-6(2H)-ylidene]acetamide with aroylketenes. crystal and molecular structure of substituted N-{(Z)-2-[1,3,4,4a,5,10b-Hexahydrophenanthridin-6(2H)-ylidene]acetyl}acrylamide

First radical cation salts of 2,5-bis(1,3-dithian-2-ylidene)-1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene (BDA-TTP) with copper(II) metal complex anions: β-(BDA-TTP)4Cu2Cl6 and (BDA-TTP)2CuCl4

New radical cation salts based on 2,5-bis(1,3-dithian-2-ylidene)-1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene (BDA-TTP) with copper(II) metal complex anions, β-(BDA-TTP)₄Cu₂Cl₆ and (BDA-TTP)₂CuCl₄, were synthesized and structurally characterized. Single crystals were prepared by electrochemical oxidation of BDA-TTP under galvanostatic conditions. X-ray diffraction study demonstrated that the salts have a layered structure, in which the conducting BDA-TTP layers alternate with the [Cu₂Cl₆]²⁻ or [CuCl₄]²⁻ anions. Both salts show the semiconductor-type temperature dependence of the conductivity. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 48–54, January, 2007.     

Synthesis,photophysical properties and DFT studies of 2-(3-cyano-4-((2-(4,6-dimethyl-5-nitro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-yl)hydrazono)methyl)-5,5-dimethylfuran-2(5H)-ylidene)malononitrile dye

The chromophore 2-(3-cyano-4-((2-(4,6-dimethyl-5-nitro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-yl) hydrazono)methyl)-5,5-dimethylfuran-2(5H)-ylidene)malononitrile (PPHTCF) was synthesized through coupling of diazotized 3-amino-4,6-dimethyl-5-nitropyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine with 3-cyano-2-(dicyanomethylene)-4,5,5-trimethylfuran (TCF). The absorption solvatochromism behaviour of PPHTCF, in various solvents, presented ΔE_max = +5.40 where the positive sign suggested red shift occurrence, implying that the PPHTCF has more polar lowest excited state than its ground one. While, the PPHTCF fluorescence spectra afforded λ_em, in 575–633 nm range, and was more dependent on the solvent polarity than the absorption λ^max, despite both exhibited red shift by 58 and 42 nm, respectively. To discover the PPHTCF solvatochromism behaviour in term of “Stokes’ shift”, both of Lippert-Mataga and linear solvation-energy relationship (LSER) formulations have been utilized and the outcomes endorsed that the later was better than the former (R² = 0.9728). Finally, TD-DFT simulated absorption and emission spectra in EtOH revealed that λ^max has been resulted mainly from HOMO → LUMO; HOMO-5 → LUMO and HOMO-2 → LUMO transitions, respectively.     

A novel reaction of (2a7-trinito-9H-fluoren-9-ylidene)-propanedinitrile with N-arylisoindolines

N-Arylisoindolines 1a-c reacted with (2,4, 7-trinitro-9H-fluoren-9-ylidene)propanedinitrile ( A ) in pyridine with admission of air via a net α-H-atom abstraction and formation of [3-(2-aryl-3-arylimino-2,3-dihydro- 1H-isoindol-1-ylidene)-2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-ylidene]propanedinitriles 2a-c , N-[2-aryl-3-(2-aryl-3-arylimino-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindolyl-1-idene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-ylidene]arenamines 3a, b , N, N'-[2-aryl-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-diylidene]bisarenamines 4a, b and N-arylphthalimides 5a-c in moderate yields. 2,4,7-Trinitro-9-fluorenone as well as one reduction product each of the latter and of A, namely compounds 6 and 7 , respectively, are also found. The structure of 2b has been unambiguously confirmed by an X-ray crystal structure analysis. A rationale for the conversions observed is presented. These involve dehydrogenation and oxidative couplings of 1a-c as well as transfer of N-aryl fragment from 1a-c to intermediate products.
