Aromatization and ring cyclization: A reasonable understanding on the ring cyclization mechanism of 3‐amino‐6‐hydrazino‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐one reacted with one‐carbon fragment reagents or nitrous acid

The cyclization mechanism for the title compound ( 2 ) reacting with one‐carbon fragment reagents or nitrous acid to afford heterobicyclic compounds 6‐amino‐3‐substituted‐1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐f][1,2,4]triazin‐8(7H)‐ones ( 3a～d ) or 6‐amino‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazolo[5,1‐f][1,2,4]triazin‐8(7H)‐one ( 4 ), respectively, is explored in this paper. When 3‐amino‐2‐benzyl‐6‐hydrazino‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐one ( 10 ), the N‐2 benzylated derivative of 2 , is treated under the same conditions, ring cyclization does not occur; instead, 3‐amino‐2‐benzyl‐6‐substituted‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐ones ( 11,12,14 ) and 2‐N‐(2‐amino‐1‐benzyl‐4‐oxo‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐yl)semicarbazide ( 13 ) are formed. Alternatively, when 3‐amino‐6‐hydrazino‐2‐[(2‐hydroxyethoxy)methyl]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐one ( 16 ), a compound bearing the 2‐[(2‐hydroxyethoxy)methyl] side‐chain at N‐2 of 2 by an N? C? O bond, reacts with glacial acetic acid or nitrous acid, the side‐chain is cleaved through acidolysis to affford the ring‐closed compound 6‐amino‐3‐methyl‐1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐f][1,2,4]triazin‐8(7H)‐one ( 3b ) or compound 4 , respectively. From these results, we suggest a cyclization mechanism that the ring cyclization is dependent on the aromatization of the 1,2,4‐triazine ring, which influence the reactivity and reaction behavior of the π‐deficient 1,2,4‐triazine.     

4‐Amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (metamitron) and 4‐amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (isometamitron)

The title structures, both C₁₀H₁₀N₄O, are substitutional isomers. The N—N bond lengths are longer and the C=N bond lengths are shorter by ca 0.025 Å than the respective average values in the C=N—N=C group of asymmetric triazines; the assessed respective bond orders are 1.3 and 1.7. There are N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds in both structures, with 4‐­amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one containing a rare bifurcated N—H⋯N,N hydrogen bond. The structures differ in their mol­ecular stacking and the hydrogen‐bonding patterns.     

2‐Amino‐5‐(3,4‐dimethoxybenzylidene)‐1‐methylimidazol‐4(5H)‐one N,N‐dimethylformamide monosolvate

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₅N₃O₃·C₃H₇NO, was determined as part of a larger project focusing on creatinine derivatives as potential pharmaceuticals. The molecule is essentially planar, in part because of intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Inversion‐related pairs of molecules result from intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The π systems of 2‐amino‐5‐(3,4‐dimethoxybenzylidene)‐1‐methylimidazol‐4(5H)‐one and an inversion‐related molecule overlap slightly, indicating a small amount of π–π stacking. Bond lengths, angles and torsion angles are consistent with similar structures, except in the imidazolone ring near the doubly bonded C atom, where significant differences occur.     

Reactions of N‐arylmaleimides with 3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole and 2‐aminobenzimidazole

The reaction of 3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole ( 1 ) with N‐arylmaleimides leads to azolopyrimidines 4 and 5 . The 2‐aminobenzimidazole ( 2 ) in the reaction with 3 gives the pyrimidobenzimidazoles 6 . In similar conditions, the reaction of amine 2 with maleic anhydride ( 7 ) leads to formation of 2‐oxo‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazole‐4‐carboxylic acid ( 8 ). The structures of 4 , 5 , 6 , and 8 were proved by X‐Ray and NOE NMR measurements. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011)     

A three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one and a ribbon of fused hydrogen‐bonded rings in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one

The molecular dimensions of both 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₂N₄O, (I), and 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₁N₅O₃, (II), are consistent with considerable polarization of the molecular–electronic structures. The molecules of (I) are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a combination of one N—H...N hydrogen bond, two independent N—H...O hydrogen bonds and one C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bond. The molecules of (II) are linked into ribbons containing three types of edge‐fused ring by the combination of two independent three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bonds.     

A One‐Pot Biginelli Synthesis of 6‐Unsubstituted 5‐Aroylpyrimidin‐2(1H)‐ones and 6‐Acetyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐3(2H)‐ones

The three‐component Biginelli‐like cyclocondensation reaction of enamines 1 , urea, and aldehydes in dioxane/acetic acid efficiently afforded the corresponding 6‐unsubstituted 3,4‐dihydropyrimidin‐2(1H)‐ones 2 in good yields (Scheme 1, Table). The corresponding reaction of azaenamine (=hydrazone) 7 with benzaldehyde and urea afforded 6‐acetyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐3(2H)‐ones in good yields (Scheme 3).     

Two regioisomers of condensed thioheterocyclic triazine synthesized from 6‐phenyl‐3‐thioxo‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one

In the crystal structure of 6‐phenyl‐3‐thioxo‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one, C₉H₇N₃OS, (I), the 1,2,4‐triazine moieties are connected by face‐to‐face contacts through two kinds of double hydrogen bonds (N—H...O and N—H...S), which form planar ribbons along the a axis. The ribbons are crosslinked through C—H...π interactions between the phenyl rings. The molecular structures of two regioisomeric compounds, namely 6‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐7H‐1,3‐thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazin‐7‐one, C₁₁H₉N₃OS, (II), and 3‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐4H‐1,3‐thiazolo[2,3‐c][1,2,4]triazin‐4‐one, C₁₁H₉N₃OS, (III), which were prepared by the condensation reaction of (I) with 1,2‐dibromoethane, have been characterized by X‐ray crystallography and spectroscopic studies. The crystal structures of (II) and (III) both show two crystallographically independent molecules. While the two compounds are isomers, the unit‐cell parameters and crystal packing are quite different and (II) has a chiral crystal structure.     

Synthesis and reactions of 3‐amino‐2‐methyl‐3H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]‐quinazolin‐9‐one and 2‐hydrazino‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one

The reaction of 3‐N‐(2‐mercapto‐4‐oxo‐4H‐quinazolin‐3‐yl)acetamide ( 1 ) with hydrazine hydrate yielded 3‐amino‐2‐methyl‐3H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolin‐9‐one ( 2 ). The reaction of 2 with o‐chlorobenzaldehyde and 2‐hydroxy‐naphthaldehyde gave the corresponding 3‐arylidene amino derivatives 3 and 4 , respectively. Condensation of 2 with 1‐nitroso‐2‐naphthol afforded the corresponding 3‐(2‐hydroxy‐naphthalen‐1‐yl‐diazenyl)‐2‐methyl‐3H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolin‐9‐one ( 5 ), which on subsequent reduction by SnCl₂ and HCl gave the hydrazino derivative 6. Reaction of 2 with phenyl isothiocyanate in refluxing ethanol yielded thiourea derivative 7. Ring closure of 7 subsequently cyclized on refluxing with phencyl bromide, oxalyl dichloride and chloroacetic acid afforded the corresponding thiazolidine derivatives 8, 9 and 10 , respectively. Reaction of 2‐mercapto‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 11 ) with hydrazine hydrate afforded 2‐hydrazino‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 12 ). The reactivity 12 towards carbon disulphide, acetyl acetone and ethyl acetoacetate gave 13, 14 and 15 , respectively. Condensation of 12 with isatin afforded 2‐[N‐(2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydroindol‐3‐ylidene)hydrazino]‐3‐phenylamino‐3H‐quinazolin‐4‐one ( 16 ). 2‐(4‐Oxo‐3‐phenylamino‐3,4‐dihydroquinazolin‐2‐ylamino)isoindole‐1,3‐dione ( 17 ) was synthesized by the reaction of 12 with phthalic anhydride. All isolated products were confirmed by their ir, ¹H nmr, ¹³C nmr and mass spectra.     

Highly Selective and Sensitive Copper(II) Membrane Sensors Based on 6‐Methyl‐4‐(1‐phenylmethylidene)amino‐3‐thioxo‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one as a New Neutral Ionophore

A new Cu(II) ion‐selective PVC membrane sensor based on 6‐methyl‐4‐(1‐phenylmethylidene)amino‐3‐thioxo‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one (MATTO) as an excellent sensing material was developed. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian slope of 29.2±0.4 mV per decade over a very wide concentration range between 1.0×10^?1 and 1.0×10^?6 M, with a detection limit of 4.8×10^?7 M (30.5 ng/mL). The sensor possesses the advantages of short conditioning time, fast response time (<10 s), and especially, very good selectivity towards transition and heavy metal, and some mono, di and trivalent cations. The proposed electrode was successfully applied to the determination of copper in wastewater of copper electroplating samples and as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of Cu(II) ions with EDTA.     

Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate in Reactions with Substituted 3‐(2‐aminophenyl)‐6‐R1‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐(2H)‐ones: Structure and Properties of the Products

The article describes unusual [5 + 1]‐cyclocondensations of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), in which this reagent uncharacteristically acts as a 1,1‐biselelectrophilic agent. Reactions of DMAD with 1,5‐bisnucleophilic 3‐(2‐aminophenyl)‐6‐R¹‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐ones yielded triazinoquinazoline‐derived diesters. The latter was shown to react with nucleophiles: hydrazine cleaved the pyrimidine ring of the diesters to give anilines, while ester hydrolysis furnished corresponding carboxylic acids.     

N‐Propionyl‐1,2‐benzisoselenazol‐3(2H)‐one

The title compound, C₁₀H₉NO₂Se, crystallizes as flat mol­ecules linked by selenium–oxy­gen interactions [Se?O = 3.189 (4) Å] into a linear chain along the a axis of the triclinic cell. The bond dimensions that are derived from ab initio geometry optimization calculations are similar to those determined from the diffraction measurements.     

Five pseudopolymorphs of 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil: absence of N—H...S hydrogen bonds

In order to study the preferred hydrogen‐bonding pattern of 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil, C₄H₅N₃OS, (I), crystallization experiments yielded five different pseudopolymorphs of (I), namely the dimethylformamide disolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·2C₃H₇NO, (Ia), the dimethylacetamide monosolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·C₄H₉NO, (Ib), the dimethylacetamide sesquisolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·1.5C₄H₉NO, (Ic), and two different 1‐methylpyrrolidin‐2‐one sesquisolvates, C₄H₅N₃OS·1.5C₅H₉NO, (Id) and (Ie). All structures contain R₂¹(6) N—H...O hydrogen‐bond motifs. In the latter four structures, additional R₂²(8) N—H...O hydrogen‐bond motifs are present stabilizing homodimers of (I). No type of hydrogen bond other than N—H...O is observed. According to a search of the Cambridge Structural Database, most 2‐thiouracil derivatives form homodimers stabilized by an R₂²(8) hydrogen‐bonding pattern, with (i) only N—H...O, (ii) only N—H...S or (iii) alternating pairs of N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds.     

N—H⋯N and C—H⋯π inter­actions in 4‐amino‐3‐methyl‐5‐(p‐tol­yl)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole and 4‐amino‐3‐methyl‐5‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole

The title compounds, C₁₀H₁₂N₄, (I), and C₉H₁₀N₄, (II), have been synthesized and characterized both spectroscopically and structurally. The dihedral angles between the triazole and benzene ring planes are 26.59 (9) and 42.34 (2)°, respectively. In (I), mol­ecules are linked principally by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving the amino NH₂ group and a triazole N atom, forming R₄⁴(20) and R₂⁴(10) rings which link to give a three‐dimensional network of mol­ecules. The hydrogen bonding is supported by two different C—H⋯π inter­actions from the tolyl ring to either a triazole ring or a tolyl ring in neighboring mol­ecules. In (II), inter­molecular hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions produce R₃⁴(15) and R₄⁴(21) rings.     

Photocyclodimerization of 5‐Methyl‐2H‐pyran‐3(6H)‐one

The structures of the main products resulting from photocyclodimerization of the title compound 2 and of other 3‐methyl‐substituted ‘oxacyclohex‐2‐en‐1‐ones’ (=dihydropyranones) were determined by X‐ray crystallography. In connection, the ¹³C‐NMR chemical shifts of the cyclobutane C‐atoms of these dimers allow a clear differentiation between head‐to‐head and head‐to‐tail regioisomers, all structurally related to those of isophorone ( 1 ).

Synthesis of N‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐phenyl‐4(1H)‐quinolinone

2‐[(Disubstituted‐methylene)‐hydrazino] benzoic acid phenacylesters 2a‐2d , prepared from anthranilic acid phenacylester 1 , were unsuccesfully tried as starting materials for the synthesis of N‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐phenyl‐4(1H)‐quinolinone 8 . The desired compound 8 was prepared by cyclization of N‐acetyl as well as N‐benzoyl‐hydrazinobenzoic acid phenacylester 6a or 6b in polyphosphoric acid to afford N‐acylamino‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐phenyl‐4(1H)‐quinolinone 7a or 7b , respectively. Surprisingly, the acyl group was resistant to attack by both hydrochloric acid as well as sodium hydroxide solution. It could be removed by boiling the compounds 7a or 7b respectively in 50% sulphuric acid to afford the the target compound 8 .
