Synthesis of 1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide

The reaction of methyl 2-bromo-6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxylate ( 1 ) with methanesulfonamide gave methyl 2-[(methylsulfonyl)amino]-6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridine-carboxylate ( 2 ). Alkylation of compound 2 with methyl iodide followed by cyclization of the resulting methyl 2-[methyl(methylsulfonyl)amino]-6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxylate ( 3 ) yielded 1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 4 ). The reaction of compound 4 with α,2,4-trichlorotoluene, methyl bromopropionate, methyl iodide, 3-trifluoromethylphenyl isocyanate, phenyl isocyanate and 2,4-dichloro-5-(2-propynyloxy)phenyl isothiocyanate gave, respectively, 4-[(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methoxy]-1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazine 2,2-dioxide ( 5 ), methyl 2-[[1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4-yl]oxy]propanoate ( 6 ), 1,3,3-trimethyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 7 ), 4-hydroxy-1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-N-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazine-3-carboxamide 2,2-dioxide ( 8 ), 4-hydroxy-1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-N-phenyl-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazine-3-carboxamide 2,2-dioxide ( 9 ) and N-[2,4-dichloro-5-(2-propynyloxy)phenyl]-4-hydroxy-1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2] thiazine-3-carboxamide 2,2-dioxide ( 10 ).

Attempted recrystallisation, dehydro-chlorination or treatment with palladium on carbon of this adduct, as well as reaction of similar enaminoketones with dichloroketene, gave instead the same product, namely 3-chloro-8-methyl-7-phenyl-7H-pyrano[2,3-e]indol-4-one, as a result of dehydrochlorination, dehydrogenation and subsequent hydrogenolysis of the C-NR₂ bond in the primary adduct.

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 3-amino-2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones (I) and 3-amino-1,2-diphenyl-2-propen-1-ones (II) occurred in good to moderate yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to I and II occurred only in the former case, giving in good to moderate yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the reaction of 2-methyl-1-phenyl-3-diphenylamino-2-propen-1-one with dichloroketene, a product was isolated which was proven by uv, ir, nmr and chemical evidence to be the dipolar ion VI, the supposed intermediate of the polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted enaminones.     

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (III) occurred in good yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides, whereas N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-1-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones (IV) did not react at all. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to III and IV occurred partly in the case of aromatic N-substitution, with the exception of the morpholino derivative IVd, giving in low yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to the corresponding 4-amino-3-chloro-(6-methyl-5-phenyl)(6-benzyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones (VII) in good yield. In some cases of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution of III and IV, cycloaddition led directly to N,N-dialkyl derivatives VII in low yield.

Cascade synthesis of 2-amino-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-thiazole by reaction of 4-chloro-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-[2,2-dichloro-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenylethyl]benzenesulfonamide with thiourea

4-Chloro-N-[2,2-dichloro-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenylethyl]benzenesulfonamide reacted with thiourea on heating in DMF in the presence of sodium carbonate to give 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-thiazole-2-amine. A probable reaction scheme includes cyclization of the initial N-dichloroethyl amide to N-sulfonyl-2,3-diaryl-2-chloroaziridine which undergoes isomerization with opening of the three-membered ring to 1-arylsulfonylamino-2-chloro-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenylethene. The subsequent heterocyclization in the reaction with thiourea is accompanied by aromatization via elimination of the arenesulfonamide fragment.

Novel heterocycles. Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide and related compounds

The reaction of 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride ( 5 ) with 1-methyl-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 4 ) gave the O-benzoyl compound, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoate ( 6 ), which rearranged to give the C-benzoyl isomer, [2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl] (4-hydroxy-1-mefhyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3-yl)methanone ( 7 ). The O-cinnamoyl compound 13 that resulted from the addition of 2,4-dichlorocinnamoyl chloride ( 11 ) to compound 4 rearranged to give the C-cinnamoyl compound, 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3yl)-2-propen-1-one ( 15 ). On the other hand, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 3-phenyl-2-propenoate ( 19 ) (from cinnamoyl chloride ( 17 ) and compound 4 ) rearranged to give 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide ( 21 ), an example of a hitherto unknown ring system.

Reaction of ketenes with N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. XI. Synthesis of 2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazole derivatives

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted 6-aminomethylene-5,6-dihydro-2-phenylbenzothiazol-7-(4H)ones gave in good yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones II, which are derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazole. Dehydrochlorination with triethylamine of II afforded N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5,6-dihydro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones III in good to moderate yield. The dimethylamino adduct was dehydrochlorinated in high yield by refluxing in toluene, whereas the diisopropylamino adduct gave in low yield 6-(2,2-dichloroethylidene)-5,6-dihydro-2-phenylbenzothiazol-7-(4H)one with the triethylamine treatment. The dehydrochlorinated product IIId (NR₂ = pyrrolidino) was obtained directly in low yield by cycloaddition of dichloroketene to the corresponding enaminone. Full aromatisation of IIIa,g [NR₂ = N(CH₃)₂ and N(CH₃)C₆H₅, respectively] to the corresponding N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano-[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones was accomplished with DDQ in refluxing benzene.     

Reactions of 5-oxo-1-phenylpyrrolidine-3-carbohydrazides with 1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives and the properties of the obtained products

The alkylated analogues of the above products were obtained using ethyl iodide. The interaction of 5-oxo-1-phenylpyrrolidine-3-carbohydrazides with 2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone was followed by formation of N′-(3-chloro-1,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-2-yl)-1-phenyl-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carbohydrazides. All these compounds were characterized using ¹H, ¹³C NMR, IR and mass spectra. Some of the new compounds were tested for the antimicrobial and antifungal activity.

N-Sulfinyltrifluoromethanesulfonamide CF₃SO₂N=S=O reacts with salicylaldehyde, 2-furaldehyde, 2-thiophenecarbaldehyde, 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde, and 2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbaldehyde to afford the corresponding N-aryl(hetaryl)methylidenetrifluoromethanesulfonamides in high yields. Reactions of the latter with aniline give no adducts at the C=N bond but transamination products. The reaction of trifluoromethanesulfonamide with phenyl isocyanate led to formation of N,N′-diphenylurea instead of expected N-phenyl-N′-(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)urea.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 7, 2005, pp. 1006–1010.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Shainyan, Tolstikova.     

Methyl 3-cyclopropyl-3-oxopropanoate in the synthesis of heterocycles having a cyclopropyl substituent

Reactions of methyl 3-cyclopropyl-3-oxopropanoate with chloroacetone and ammonia, benzaldehyde and ammonia, and benzoquinone gave, respectively, methyl 2-cyclopropyl-5-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate, dimethyl 2,6-dicyclopropyl-4-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, and methyl 2-cyclopropyl-5-hydroxy-1-benzofuran-3-carboxylate. Cyclization of methyl 3-cyclopropyl-3-oxopropanoate with ethyl chloro(arylhydrazono)ethanoates and other halohydrazones led to the formation of 3-substituted 1-aryl-5-cyclopropyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids, and 5-cyclopropyl-1-(quinolin-5-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid was obtained by reaction of the title compound with 5-azidoquinolines.     

Amide-based atropisomers in tachykinin NK1-receptor antagonists: synthesis and antagonistic activity of axially chiral N-benzylcarboxamide derivatives of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,5]oxazocin-6-one

A series of novel N-benzylcarboxamide derivatives of bicyclic compounds, 3,4-dihydropyrido[3,2-f][1,4]oxazepin-5(2H)-one and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,5]oxazocin-6-one, were synthesized by cyclization of N-benzyl-2-chloro-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)- [and -(3-hydroxypropyl)-] nicotinamides, respectively. Atropisomerism was observed in 5-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-7-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,5]oxazocin-6-ones due to steric hindrance of the carboxamide moiety and restriction of its rotation. Cyclization of N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-2-chloro-N-[(2S)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl]-5-methyl-4-phenylnicotinamide gave (3S)-5-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-3,8-dimethyl-7-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-pyrido[2,3b][1,5]oxazocin-6-one, which exists predominantly in the thermodynamically stable aR-conformer in CDCl₃. This compound showed excellent NK₁-antagonistic activity with IC₅₀ value (in vitro inhibition of [¹²⁵I]-Bolton-Hunter-substance P binding in human IM-9 cells) of 0.47 nM, which is ca. 200-fold more potent than that of its enantiomer, indicating that the atropisomer chirality affects NK₁-receptor recognition.     

Reaction of ketenes with N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. XII. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl) (2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted (E)-amino-5-methyl-1,4-hexadien-3-ones IV and (E,E)-1-amino-5-phenyl-1,4-pentadien-3-ones V occurred in moderate to good yield only in the case of aromatic N-substitution to give N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl) (2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to afford in good yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-6-(2-methyl-propenyl)(2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution (dimethylamino group) of enaminones IV and V, the Cycloaddition led directly in low yield to 3-chloro-4-dimethylamino-6-(2-methyl-l-propenyl)(2-phenylethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 5-methyl-4-phenyl thiazole derivatives as anticancer agents

Abstract

New N-(5-methyl-4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)-2-(substituted thio)acetamides were synthesized and studied for their anticancer activity. The title compounds were procured by reacting 2-chloro-N-(5-methyl-4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)acetamide with some mercapto derivatives. The structural elucidation of the compounds was performed by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and LC-MS/MS spectral data and elemental analyses. The synthesized compounds were investigated for their antitumor activities against A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells and NIH/3T3 mouse embryoblast cell line for determining their selective cytotoxicity. 2-[(1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio]-N-(5-methyl-4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)acetamide (4c) showed high selectivity, and whose IC₅₀ value was determined as 23.30?±?0.35?µM and >1000?µM against A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells and NIH/3T3 mouse embryoblast cell lines, respectively. 2-[(1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)thio]-N-(5-methyl-4-phenyl thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (4a) and 2-[(1-Methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio]-N-(5-methyl-4-phenyl thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (4c) exhibited the highest apoptosis percentage among those tested, but not as high as the standard, cisplatin.     

Bildung von 5,6-Dihydro-1,3(4H)-thiazin-4-carbonsäure-estern aus 4-Allyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-onen

Formation of Methyl 5,6-Dihydro-l, 3(4H)-thiazine-4-carboxyiates from 4-Allyl-l, 3-thiazol-5(4H)-ones . The reaction of N-[1-(N, N-dimethylthiocarbamoyl)-1-methyl-3-butenyl]benzamid ( 1 ) with HCl or TsOH in MeCN or toluene yields a mixture of 4-allyl-4-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-one ( 5a ) and allyl 4-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl sulfide ( 11 ; Scheme 3). Most probably, the corresponding 1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-thiones B are intermediates in this reaction. With HCl in MeOH, 1 is transformed into methyl 5,6-dihydro-4,6-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3(4H)-thiazine-4-carboxylate ( 12a ). The same product 12a is formed on treatment of the 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-one 5a with HCl in MeOH (Scheme 4). It is shown that the latter reaction type is common for 4-allyl-substituted 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-ones.     

Reactions of N-(2,2-Dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)arenesulfonamides with Aromatic and Heterocyclic Compounds

Benzene, toluene, and 2-chlorothiophene regioselectively react with N-(2,2-dichloro-2-phenyl- ethylidene)arenesulfonamides in the presence of oleum to give N-[1-aryl(or hetaryl)-2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethyl]arenesulfonamides. Analogous C-amidoalkylation products are formed by the action of N-(2,2-dichloro- 1-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)- and N-(1-arylsulfonylamino-2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethyl)arenesulfonamides on toluene and 2-chlorothiophene in concentrated sulfuric acid.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Some Ruthenium Mixed-Ligand Complexes

The complexation reaction of trans-[RuCl₂(Dpte)₂] (Dpte – (diphenylthio)ethane) with mixed diimine ligands 2,2"-bipyridine, pyridylquinoline, 4,6-dichloro-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrimidine, 4,6-dichloro-5-methyl-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrimidine, and 4,6-dichloro-5-phenyl-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrimidine produces new Ru(II) mixed-ligand complexes. These complexes exhibit maximum photo- and chemical stability and high absorptivity. The above complexes have been characterized using IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, electronic absorption spectroscopy, and elemental analysis.     

Regioselectivity in the reactions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-(polychloroethylidene)-sulfonamides with 1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrrole and 1-methyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrrole

N-(2,2,2-Trichloroethylidene)arenesulfonamides react with 1H-pyrrole and 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole to give the corresponding N-[2,2,2-trichloro-1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)ethyl]arenesulfonamides. The reaction of N-(2,2,2-trichloroethylidene)trifluoromethanesulfonamide with pyrrole leads to a mixture of 2-mono-and 2,5-disubstituted pyrroles, whereas in the reaction with 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole only the 2-substituted compound is formed. N-(2,2-Dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide reacts with 1H-pyrrole to form N-[2,2-dichloro-2-phenyl-1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)ethyl]-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide, and its reaction with 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole gives a mixture of 2-and 3-monosubstituted derivatives. The results of quantum-chemical calculations of the initial reactants and products indicate that the process is orbital-controlled. A good agreement is observed between the experimental data and theoretical conclusions concerning the dependence of the reaction regioselectivity on the nature of substituents in the electrophile molecule.
