Synthesis and nitration of NH- and N-vinyl-4,5,7-trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridines

It has been shown that the most efficient catalysts for the synthesis of 4,5,7-trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine from 1,2,5-trimethylpyridin-4-one and acetylene under Trofimov conditions are rubidium and potassium hydroxides. Use of Triton B or a mixture of trimethylbenzylammonium chloride with rubidium hydroxide as catalyst gives O-alkylated oxime. Their configurations and conformations were established through separation of the individual isomers of 1-vinyl-4,5,7-trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridines. Acetyl nitrate nitration of the cis isomer of this compound gave the 2- and 3-nitro derivatives. Similar nitration of 4,5,7-trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine gave the 2-nitro-7-hydroxy derivative.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1375–1380, October, 1991.

Five new peltogynoids from underground parts of Iris bungei: a Mongolian medicinal plant

Five new peltogynoids, irisoids A-E (1-5), have been isolated from the underground parts of Iris bungei. The structures of the new compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic methods and were found to be 1,8,10-trihydroxy-9-methoxy-[1]benzopyrano-[3,2-c][2]-benzopyran-7(5H)-one (1), 1,8-dihydroxy-9,10-dimethoxy-[1]benzopyrano-[3,2-c][2]-benzopyran-7(5H)-one (2), 1,10-dihydroxy-8,9-dimethoxy-[1]benzopyrano-13,2-c][2]-benzopyran-7(5H)-one (3), 1,8-dihydroxy-9,10-methylenedioxy-[1]benzopyrano-[3,2-c][2]-benzopyran-7(5H)-one (4), and 1,8,11-trihydroxy-9,10-methylenedioxy-[1]benzopyrano-[3,2-c][2]-benzopyran-7(5H)-one (5). The structure of irisoid B (2) was established unambiguously by X-ray diffraction study.     

Two efficient cascade reactions to synthesize substituted furocoumarins

We have developed two efficient one-pot reactions to generate furo[3,2-c]coumarins and chlorofuro[3,2-c]coumarins through addition/cyclization/oxidation and chlorination. One cascade addition/cyclization/oxidation sequence of 1 with H(2)O in the presence of 20% CuCl as Lewis acid under an air atmosphere generated the 2-substituted-4 H-furo[3,2-c]chromen-4-one 2. Another sequence in the presence of 10% CuBr and excess CuCl(2) as the oxidant afforded the 3-chloro-2-substituted-4 H-furo[3,2- c]chromen-4-one 3.     

A concise synthesis of all four possible benzo[4,5]furopyridines via palladium-mediated reactions

[reaction: see text] By taking advantage of the alpha- and gamma-activation of chloropyridines as well as palladium-mediated reactions, all four possible benzo[4,5]furopyridine tricyclic heterocycles, benzo[4,5]furo[2,3-b]pyridine, benzo[4,5]furo[2,3-c]pyridine, benzo[4,5]furo[3,2-c]pyridine, and benzo[4,5]furo[3,2-b]pyridine, are efficiently synthesized from 2-chloro-3-iodopyridine, 3-chloro-4-stannylpyridine, 4-chloro-3-iodopyridine, and 2-chloro-3-hydroxypyridine, respectively.

The condensation of O-phenylhydroxylamine (Ia) with tetrahydro-4-thiopyrone, 1-methyl-4-piperidone (IIb), 1,2,5-trimethyl-4-piperidone, and 4-thiochromanone and of O-(4-tolyl)-hydroxylamine with IIb was used to synthesize the corresponding benzofuran derivatives (IIIa-e), from which IIIa and IIIb were obtained by deamination of 8-amino-3,4-dihydro-1H-thiopyrano-[4,3-b]benzofuran and 2-methyl-8-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzofuro[3,2-c]pyridine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 740–742, June, 1972.     

Electron Ionization Mass Spectra of Organophosphorus Compounds Part I: The Mass Fragmentation Pathways of Cyclic α-Aminophosphonates Monoester Containing 1,2,4-Triazinone Moiety

Abstract

The electron impact induced fragmentation reactions of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3,4- dihydro-2-ethoxy-2-oxido-7-methyl-2H,6H-[1,2,4]triazino[4,3-e][1,4,5,2]thiadiazaphosphin in-6-one (1), 3,7-dimethyl-2-ethoxy-2-oxido-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6H-[1,2,4]triazino[4,3-b][1,2,4,5]triazaphosphinin-6-one (2), and 9-amino-3,7-dimethyl-4-ethoxy-4-oxido-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-8H-[1,2,4]triazino[3,2-c][1,2,4,5]triazaphosphinin-8-one (3) are presented and compared. The 1,2,4-triazine rings have almost identical fragmentation routes. The 1,2,4-triazine rings are rather stable relative to the phosphorus rings. Therefore, fragmentation of the phosphorus rings is more favorable for the compounds than the stable 1,2,4-triazine rings.     

The reaction of β-lactam carbenes with 3,6-dipyridyltetrazines: switch of reaction pathways by 2-pyridyl and 4-pyridyl substituents of tetrazines

The reactions of β-lactam carbenes with both 3,6-di(2-pyridyl)tetrazine and 3,6-di(4-pyridyl)tetrazine were studied. It was found that β-lactam carbenes reacted with 3,6-di(2-pyridyl)tetrazine to produce 5-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridylpyrrol-2-ones in good yields, while with 3,6-di(4-pyridyl)tetrazine, they afforded pyrido[c]cyclopenta[b]pyrrol-2-ones in moderate yields. Both reactions were proposed to follow cascade mechanisms containing a 3,6a-dipyridylpyrrolo[3,2-c]pyrazol-5-one intermediate. The different pathways of the transformation of pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyrazol-5-ones were switched by the 2- and 4-pyridyl substituents. This work not only provided a simple and efficient strategy for the construction of novel triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine and pyrido[c]cyclopenta[b]pyrrole derivatives, respectively, but also revealed two different thermal transformation patterns of 3H-pyrazole compounds.     

Nouvelles voies d'accès à des aryl-4 thiéno[2,3-c]pyridines et à des aryl-7 thiéno[3,2-c]pyridines

4-Arylthieno[2,3-c]pyridines and 7-arylthieno[3,2-c]pyridines have been prepared by heating in polyphosphoric acid 2-(2-thenylamino>l-arylethanols or propanols and 2- 3-thenylamino>l-arylethanols or propanols, respectively.) Under the Beckmann rearrangement conditions, oximes of 4-aryl-4,5-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-one lead to 4-aryl-4,5- dihydro-6H-thieno[2,3-c]pyridin-7-one.     

Synthesis of derivatives of a new heterocyclic system — 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzofuro[3,2-c]pyridine

Derivatives (Iva–f) of the heretofore unknown 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzofuro[3,2-c]pyridine heterocyclic system were synthesized by the cyclization of aryl ethers of the oximes of piperidones (IIIa–f) under acid conditions.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1469–1472, November, 1971.     

Heterocyclic quinones. XIV. Pharmacomodulation in a series of 11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinolinediones: synthesis and cytotoxicity of 8-substituted 11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline-7,10-diones

4-Chloro-8-methoxy-11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline could be obtained from 8-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-quinolin-4-one and 4-methoxyphenylhydrazine by applying Fischer's indole synthesis. Its nitration led to the 7-nitro derivative which was reduced to 7-amino-4-chloro-8-methoxy-11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline when Raney nickel was employed as a catalyst and to 7-amino-8-methoxy-11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline when palladium charcoal was used. Oxidation of the amines by potassium nitrosodisulfonate produced the corresponding 11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline-7,10-diones. Displacement of the methoxy group by (N,N-diethylamino)ethylamine or by N-methylpiperazine afforded the 8-aminoquinones. The quinones unsubstituted at the 4-position were more cytotoxic than the previously described 2-methoxy-11H-indolo[3,2-c]quinoline-1,4-diones.     

Alkyl 2-(2-benzoyl-2-ethoxycarbonyl-1-ethenyl)amino-3-dimethylaminopropenoates in the synthesis of heterocyclic systems

Alkyl 2-(2-benzoyl-2-ethoxycarbonyl-1-ethenyl)amino-3-dimethylaminopropenoates 4a,b were prepared. They react with C-nucleophiles such a 2-pyridinylacetonitrile 5 and methyl-2-quinolinylacetate 8, cyclohexane-1,3-dione 10 and its derivatives 12 and 14, resorcinol derivative 16 , 2-naphtol 18, 2-pyranone derivatives 20 and 22, and 4-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-one 24, to form substituted amino derivatives of quinolizine 6, benzo[c]quinolizine 9, tetrahydrobenzopyran-2-one 11, 13, 15 , naphto[2,1-b]pyran-3-one 19 , pyranopyranones 21, 23, and pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine 25.     

Reactions of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde

The Knoevenagel condensations of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde with seven compounds containing an active methyl or methylene group have been studied. The compounds used were: methyl 2-cyanoacetate, malononitrile, 2-furylacetonitrile, acetophenone, 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one (rhodanine), 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (dimedone), and methyl 2-azidoacetate. The effect of microwave irradiation on the condensation reactions was studied and compared with “’classical”’ conditions. Thermolysis of methyl 2-azido-3-{5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoate afforded methyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate. (2E)-3-{ 5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoic acid was converted to the corresponding azide, which was cyclized on heating into 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one. The latter after successive action of POCl₃ and NH₂NH₂-Pd/C gave 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine.

Thermal properties of solid complexes with biologically important heterocyclic ligands

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of the complexes Co(NCS)₂(fpy)₄ (I), Co(NCS)₂(Mefpy)₄ (II) and Co(NCS)₂(bfpy)₄ (III) (where fpy = furo[3,2-c]pyridine, Mefpy = methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine, bfpy = benzo-[2, 3]furo[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in nitrogen atmosphere from room temperature (RT) to 800 °C by means of TG and DTA. The results revealed that release of heterocyclic ligands occurs in one step. Infrared data suggested that fpy, Mefpy and bfpy were coordinated to Co(II) through the nitrogen atom of the respective heterocyclic ring and anionic ligands through nitrogen atom of the NCS groups.     

Modified Coumarins. 4. Synthesis and Biological Properties of Cyclopentaneannelated Furocoumarins

Psoralen and allopsoralen analogs that contain an annelated cyclopentane were synthesized from 7-hydroxyand 9-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]chromen-4-ones. 9-Phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]furo[3,2-g]chromen-4-one exhibited low toxicity, acted as a CNS stimulant, and exhibited cardiotropic activity.

The prepared 5-[2′-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-thieno[3,2-c]pyridine (3a) is a bioisostere of 4′-(6,7-dihydro-4H-thieno [3,2-c]pyridin-5-ylmethyl)-biphenyl-2-carboxylic acid (1), having good in vivo antithrombotic activity compared with Clopidogrel. The new tetrazole derivatives (3a–k) were screened for their in vitro activity as platelet aggregation inhibitors.

Ring closure of some O-aryl ethers of ketoximes to benzofurans

The action of alcohol solutions of hydrogen chloride on aryl ethers of the oximes of N-substituted 4-piperidones (Ia-c) yielded rearrangement products — 3-(2-hydroxyaryl)-4-piperidones (IIa, b) and (or) 4a-aikoxy-l,2,3,4,4a,9b-hexahydrobenzofuro[3,2-c]pyridines (IIIa-c), which, under certain conditions, are readily converted to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzofuro[3,2-c]pyridines (IVa, b). Ketones of the II type are ketalized to dihydrobenzofurans III by alcohol solutions of hydrogen chloride.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1596–1600, December, 1971.     

Interaction of 4,5,7-Trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyridines with Acetic and Trifluoroacetic Anhydrides

The reactions of NH- and N-vinyl-4,5,7-trimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo-[3,2-c]pyridines and their 2-substituted derivatives with acetic and trifluoroacetic anhydrides have been studied. Trifluoroacetylation of tetrahydropyrrolo-[3,2-c]pyridines occurs at the α-position of the pyrrole ring, whereas cleavage of the tetrahydropyridine ring with formation of 3-vinylpyrroles occurs with acetic anhydride. 2-Acetyl-4,5,7-trimethyl-1-vinyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine was synthesized by the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, 751–760.
