Synthesis of 2-N-(benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)benzo and heterofused-1,2,3-triazoles

A novel efficient synthesis of 2-N-(benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)benzo and heterofused-1,2,3-triazoles was achieved by the diazotisation of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-3-carbonitrile and ethyl-2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylate and coupling with selected aromatic and heterocyclic amines followed by air oxidation in the presence of cupric acetate.     

A new method for the synthesis of N-substituted (4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-3-yl)acetic acids

A new method for the synthesis of N-substituted 2-(4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-3-yl)acetic acids was developed. Alkylation of cyclic 1,3-diketones with 3,5,5,5-tetrachloropentan-2-one affords 1,4-diketones, which undergo cyclization with different primary amines into N-substituted 3-(2,2,2-trichloroethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-4-ones. Acid hydrolysis of the latter gives the corresponding indol-3-ylacetic acids. The structures of the compounds obtained were confirmed by ¹H and ¹³C NMR data.

5-Aryl(hetaryl)furan-2,3-diones reacted with N-(triphenyl-λ⁵-phosphanylidene)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-2-amines to give 5-aryl(hetaryl)-2-[(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-2-yl)imino]furan-3(2H)-ones whose acid hydrolysis afforded 4-aryl(hetaryl)-2-hydroxy-4-oxo-N-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen- 2-yl)but-2-enamides.     

STRUCTURAL STUDIES ON PYRAZOLYLPYRIDINE LIGANDS AND COMPLEXES. 2. COMPARISONS BETWEEN BISPYRAZOLYLPYRIDINE LINKAGE ISOMERS AND WITH 2,2′,6′,2″-TERPYRIDINE JERZY ZADYKOWICZ

Abstract

Crystal structures were obtained for the 3(C),2′;6′,3″(C)-linked bispyrazolylpyridines 2,6-di(2H-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazol-3-yl)pyridine (1), 2,6-di(l-methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazol-3-yl)pyridine (2), 2,6-di(1 -(4-ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazol-3-yl)pyridine (3) and for the homoleptic Ru^II complex of 2, [Ru(2)₂]Cl₂, which crystallized with 7 molecules of CHCl₃. Ligand 1 adopts the inter-and intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded syn,syn rotameric conformation, while 2 and 3 were in the anti,anti forms. Relative to the latter, iigand distortions were assessed in 1 (considered as a H⁺ complex) and [Ru(2)₂]Cl₂. Comparisons were drawn with other tridentate ligands containing a pyridine nucleus, specifically the 1(N),2′;6′,1″(N″) linkage isomers and 2,2′;6′,2″-terpyridine, in both free and Ru^II complexed forms, as well as with their bidentate analogues. Unlike with bidentate ligands, the bonds to the pyridine moiety are shortest, the outer heterocyclic rings are drawn inward and, overall, the ligands remain fairly planar. Flanking substituents remain well splayed out in the 1,2′;6′,1″-linked bispyrazolylpyridines, are more parallel in the 3,2′;6′,3″ linkage isomers and are unfavorably compressed in terpyridines.     

Cross-coupling of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole with functionalized haloacetylenes on active surfaces of metal oxides and salts

Screening was performed of metal oxides (MgO, CaO, ZnO, BaO, Al₂O₃, TiO₂, ZrO₂) and salts (CaCO₃, K₂CO₃, ZrSiO₄) as active surfaces for the reaction of ethynylation of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole with ethyl bromopropynoate and bromobenzoylacetylene. It was established that Ca, Mg, Zn, and Ba oxides assist the ethynylation of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole, and their activity in the reaction with ethyl bromopropynoate considerably exceeds that of aluminum oxide. The ethynylation is accompanied with the formation of intermediate E-2-(1-bromoethenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole and side 1,1-di(4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-2-yl)ethenes and 1,1-di(4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-2-yl)bromoethanes.     

Novel Selected Tandem Transformations of the Amino and Carbonyl/Nitrile Groups in the Gewald Thiophenes

Novel transformations of the amino and carbonyl/nitrile groups in the Gewald thiophenes were studied for thienopyrimidine synthesis. It was found that 2-amino-thiophene-3-carboxamides and ethyl 2-(acetylamino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbo- xylate did not yield tetrazole derivatives, neither in the reaction with triethyl orthoformate and sodium azide, nor in the reaction with phosphorus oxychloride and sodium azide, correspondingly. On the contrary, derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one were isolated. New 2-azidothiophenes [2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetra hydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile and 2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-3-yl(phenyl)methanone] were synthesized and used in anionic domino reactions with activated acetonitriles to yield thieno[3,2-e][1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and/or 2-(5-amino-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)thiophenes. Finally, a new ring system of thieno[3,2-e]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine was synthesized via a domino reaction of ethyl 2-[(2Z)-2-(1-chloro-2-ethoxy-2-oxoethylidene)hydrazino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxylate with activated acetonitriles.     

Study on side-chain second-order nonlinear optical polyimides based on novel chromophore-containing diamines. I. Synthesis and characterization

Side-chain second-order nonlinear optical polyimides were prepared from four novel chromophore-containing diamines and 4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride by a traditional two-step process that included a solution polycondensation followed by a chemical imidization. The four diamines were 2,4-di-β-aminoethylamino-6-p-nitrophenylamino-1,3,5-triazine (M1), 4-nitro-4′-[N-(4,6-di-β-aminoethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino azobenzene (M2), 2,4-di-p-aminophenylamino-6-p-nitrophenylamino-1,3,5-triazine (M3), and 4-nitro-4′-[N-(4,6- di-4-aminophenylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino azobenzene (M4). All the polyimides exhibited maximum ultraviolet-visible absorption peaks or shoulders of chromophores at wavelengths below 400 nm, and those based on M1 and M3 were transparent at wavelengths above 450 nm, whereas those based on M2 and M4 were transparent at wavelengths above 550 nm. The polyimides possessed high glass-transition temperatures (T_g's; 218–247 °C) and thermal decomposition temperatures. They were soluble in aprotic solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethyl acetamide, N,N-dimethyl formamide, and dimethylsulfone. Some were even soluble in common low-boiling-point solvents such as tetrahydrofuran. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 37: 4330–4336, 1999     

Convenient synthesis of novel N-(5-allyl-7,7-difluoro)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-indazol-3-yl)-carboxymides

5-Allyl-7,7-difluoro-2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine-3-amine represents a fluorinated heterocyclic scaffold, potentially attractive. It was synthesized via Michael addition, Mannich reaction of the difluorinated ethyl bromoacetate with a benzotriazole derivative, followed by a Dieckmann condensation. Starting from simple materials, this efficient route which gives access to novel functionalized N-(5-allyl-7,7-dihalo)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-indazol-3-yl)-carboxymides, was explored and adapted for parallel synthesis, resulting in a compound library.     

Synthesis of new chelating ligands containing two pyrazole fragments

In refluxing MeOH, the heterocycle 5a rearranges to give the N-[1-methyl-1-(1,1-dioxo-4H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-3-yl)ethyl]-N′, N′-dimethylurea 10 . The three isomeric 2-(methylamino)benzenesufonamides 8,9 , and 11 (Scheme 3) are obtained by naBH₄ reduction of 5a and 10 , respectively. Mechanisms for the thermal isomerization 5a → 10 and the NaBH₄ reduction of 5a are proposed in Schemes 5 and 6.     

Synthesis of diols containing nucleic acid bases and their polyesters

Preparation of four diols containing nucleic acid bases derived from 3-(thymin-1-yl)propanoic acid (3-TPA) and 3-(uracil-1-yl)propanoic acid (3-UPA), and the corresponding model polymers of polynucleotides with linear polyester backbone and nucleic acid base derivative as pendant side chains are described. N-(1′,3′-Dihydroxy-2′-methyl-2′-propyl)-3-(thymin-1-yl)propionamide ( VIa , 3-HMPTPA), N-(1′3′-dihydroxy-2′-methyl-2′-propyl)-3-(uracyl-1-yl)propionamide ( VIb , 3-HMPUPA) and their isomers, N(β,β-dihydroxyethyl)-3-(thymin-1-yl)propionamide ( VIIa , 3-HETPA), and N-(β,β-dihydroxyethyl)-3-(uracil-1-yl)propionamide ( VIIb , 3-HEUPA) were synthesized through the selective N-acylation of 2-methyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol and diethanolamine with 3-TPA and 3-UPA, respectively, by the active ester-N-hydroxyl-1,4-epoxy-5-cyclohexene-2,3-dicarboximide (HOEC) method. The resulting diols were polycondensed with active diamide of benzotriazole (HBT) such as 1,1′-(isophthaloyl)bis-benzotriazole (IPBBT), giving polyesters containing thymine and uracil derivatives as the side group, by the selective O-acrylation of active amide-benzotriazole method.

Ethyl 2-[5-aryl-2-oxofuran-3(2H)-ylideneamino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxylates reacted with secondary amines to give 4-aryl-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-4-oxobutanamides, whereas their reaction with piperazine afforded N,N′-disubstituted piperazine derivatives regardless of the reactant ratio.     

The synthesis of a series of (α-amino)indol-3-yl ketones

A series of [(α-amino)indol-3-yl]-2-methyl-1-propanones and [(α-amino)indol-3-yl]cyclopentylmethanones has been synthesized by a variety of reductive reactions performed on the corresponding series of (α-azido)-indol-3-yl ketones. One of the more interesting reductive procedures involved the palladium-catalyzed decomposition of formic acid with the formation of hydrogen in situ. The (α-azido)ketones were prepared in excellent yield by the displacement of the tertiary bromine atom from the (α-bromo)ketones using sodium azide in N,N-dimethylformamide. Bromination was accomplished by using either cupric bromide in ethyl acetate/chloroform or phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide in tetrahydrofuran.

Synthesis of isonipecotinoyl analogues of aminopterin and folic acid

The preparation of isonipecotinoyl analogues of aminopterin and methotrexate is described. Condensation of diethyl N-isonipecotinoyl-L-glutamate 4 with 2-amino-5-bromomethyl-3-cyanopyrazine 5 afforded diethyl N-(N-[(2-amino-3-cyanopyrazin-5-yl)methyl]isonipecotinoyl)-L-glutamate 6 . Cyclisation of 6 with guanidine followed by blocking group hydrolysis afforded N-([N-(2,4-diaminopteridin-6-yl)methyl]isonipecotinoyl)-L-glutamic acid 8 . Coupling of N-(2-amino-4(3H)ioxopteridin-6-yl]methyl)isonipecotinic acid 11 with diethyl L-glutamate gave diethyl N-[(N-[2-amino-4(3H)-oxopteridin-6-yl]methyl)isonipecotinoyl]-L-glutamate 12 . Blocking group hydrolysis afforded N-[(N-[2-amino-4(3H)-oxopteridin-6-yl]methyl)isonipecotinoyl]-L-glutamic acid 13 .

(4,5,6,7-Tetrahydroindol-2-yl)alkynes, synthesized by cross-coupling of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles with aroyl(hetaroyl)bromoalkynes or ethyl bromopropynoate in the presence of K₂CO₃, regioselectively cyclize with hydroxylamine to either 3- or 5-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindol-2-yl)isoxazoles depending on the acidity of the reaction mixture: in the presence of acetic acid 3-isomers are formed (ca. 100% selectivity), while under neutral conditions the reaction is switched to 5-isomers (94–97% selectivity).     

Reactions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-and <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>-Alkenylanilines: VII. Synthesis of Indole Heterocycles from Products of Reaction between <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Mesyl-2-(1-alken-1-yl)anilines and Halogens

N-Mesyl-2-(1-methyl-1-butenyl)-6-methylaniline reacted with Br₂ to afford N-mesyl-2-(3-bromo-1-penten-2-yl)aniline that under treatment with NH₃ or amines underwent cyclization into N-mesyl-7-methyl-3-methylene-2-ethylindoline. The reaction of N-mesyl-2-(1-methyl-1-buten-1-yl)-4-methyl- and 2-(1-methyl-1-buten-1-yl)aniline with Br₂ gave rise to the corresponding N-mesyl-2-(2-bromo-1-methyl-1-buten-1-yl)anilines. Under the similar conditions N-tosyl-2-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)aniline was converted into N-tosyl-2-(6-bromo-1-cyclohexen-1-yl)aniline that under treatment with NH₃ furnished N-tosyl-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydrocarbazole. The reaction of N-mesyl-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydrocarbazole with CuBr₂ in MeOH afforded N-mesyl-4-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole. N-Mesyl-6-methyl-2-(1-cyclopenten-1-yl)aniline in reaction with Br₂ in the presence of NaHCO₃ was oxidized into the corresponding cyclopentenone, and with NBS it gave N-mesyl-2-(2-bromo-1-cyclopenten-1-yl)aniline.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 5, 2005, pp. 730–737.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Gataullin, Sotnikov, Spirikhin, Abdrakhmanov.     

Quantum chemical study of the transformation of 2-(N-alkylamino)-3-(indol-1-yl)-and 2-(N-alkylamino)-3-(indol-3-yl)maleimides by protic acids: Tandem hydride transfer/cyclization mechanism

The geometric parameters, the charge distribution, and the energetics of N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-1-yl)-and N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-3-yl)maleimides and their conjugated acids were studied by density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The mechanism of the tandem hydride transfer/cyclization sequence, which occurs after protonation of N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-1-yl)-and N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-3-yl)maleimides, was analyzed. The investigation of the potential energy surface for the tandem hydride transfer/cyclization of the iminium cation that formed upon protonation revealed that the hydride transfer followed by intramolecular cyclization at position 7 of the indole fragment in N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-1-yl)maleimide is the preferable process, unlike alternative intramolecular cyclization involving the cationic center at the C(2) atom of the indole fragment and the benzene ring of the N-ethylaniline fragment of the indoleninium cation in N-methyl-2-(N-ethylanilino)-3-(indol-3-yl)maleimide. A study of the key intermediates of the assumed reaction mechanism demonstrated that these intermediates are actually stationary points on the potential energy surface (minima and transition states).
