The synthesis of [1,4]dioxino[2,3-c]quinolines and [1,4]dioxepino[2,3-c]quinolines with restrained conformation of the piperidine ring, which represent 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines containing two heteroatom substituents at positions 3 and 4, is described. In addition, the application of this approach for the synthesis of 1-sulfur analogues is discussed. Both series are helpful tools for three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship studies in the field of modulators of multidrug resistance.

Bromination of 2-methylfuropyridines 1a-d-Me gave the 3-bromo derivatives 2a-d , while the 2-cyano compounds 1a-d-CN resulted in the recovery of the starting compounds. Nitration of 1a-d-Me and 1a-d-CN did not yield the corresponding nitro derivative, except for 1-c-CN giving 3-nitro derivative 3c in 7% yield. N-Oxidation of 1a-d-Me and 1b-d-CN with m-chloroperbenzoic acid yielded the N-oxides 4a-d-Me and 4b-d-CN , whereas 1a-CN did not afford the N-oxide. Cyanation of N-oxides 4a-d-Me and 4b-d-CN with trimethylsilyl cyanide gave the corresponding α-cyanopyridine compounds 5a-d-Me and 5b-d-CN . Chlorination of 4a-d-Me and 4b-d-CN with phosphorus oxychloride also gave the α-chloropyridine compounds 6b-d-Me and 6b-d-CN , accompanying formation of γ-chloropyridine 6a-Me, 6′b-Me and 6′b-CN , β-chloropyridine 6′b-CN , and α'-chloropyridine derivatives 6′c-Me and 6′c-CN .

Nitration of 1a-d gave the 2-nitro-3-bromo compounds 3a-d . The N-oxides 4a-d of 1a-d were submitted to the cyanation with trimethylsilyl cyanide to yield the corresponding α-cyanopyridine compound 6a-d . Chlorination of 4a and 4d with phosphorus oxychloride gave mainly the chloropyridine derivatives 7a, 7′a and 7d , while 4b and 4c gave mainly the chlorofuran derivatives 7′b and 7′c accompanying formation of the chloropyridine derivatives 7b, 7′b and 7c .

The same reaction of 1a at ?40° gave 3-(1,2-propadienyl)pyridin-2-ol 3 and 3-(2-propynyl)pyridin-2-ol 4 . Reaction of the lithio intermediates from 1a, 1c and 1d with benzaldehyde, propionaldehyde and acetone afforded the corresponding alcohol derivatives 6a, 6c, 6d, 7a, 7c, 7d, 8a, 8c and 8d in excellent yield; while the reaction of lithio intermediate from 1b gave the expected alcohols 6b and 8b in lower yields accompanied by formation of 3-alkylated compounds 9, 11, 12 and compound 5 . While reaction of the intermediates from 1a, 1b and 1d with N,N-dimethylacetamide yielded the 2-acetonyl compounds 13a, 13b and 13d in good yield, the same reaction of 1c did not give any acetylated product but recovery of the starting compound almost quantitatively.     

Furopyridines. II. Bromination and nitration of furo[2,3-b]-, furo[3,2-b]-, furo[2,3-c]- and furo[3,2-c]pyridine

In order to reveal the reactivities of furopyridines, we undertook bromination and nitration of four furopyridines ( 1, 2, 3 and 4 ) whose chemical properties had been almost unknown. Bromination of 1, 2, 3 and 4 gave the corresponding trans-2,3-dibromo-2,3-dihydro derivatives 6, 8, 10 and 12 , respectively, which were converted to 3-bromofuropyridines 7, 9, 11 and 13 by treatment with sodium hydroxide in aqueous methanol. Nitration of 1 with a mixture of fuming nitric acid and sulfuric acid afforded a mixture of addition products 14a, 14b and 14c and 2-nitro derivative 15 . Both 14a and 14b were easily converted to 15 by treatment with sodium bicarbonate. Compound 2 was nitrated to give a mixture of cis- and trans-2-nitro-3-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro derivative 16a and 16b and 2-nitro derivative 17 . The cis isomer 16a was transformed to the trans isomer 16b by refluxing on silica gel in ethyl acetate. Compound 16b was dehydrated with acetic anhydride to give 17 . Nitration of 3 gave a nitrolic acid derivative 20 . Nitration of 4 gave a mixture of 2-nitro derivative 22 and 3-(trinitromethyl)pyridin-4-ol ( 23 ). The structures of 20 and 23 were established by single crystal X-ray analysis. The differences of behavior observed in these reactions are discussed in connection with the results of the determination of pKa values and the relative reactivities of deuteriodeprotonation of these furopyridines.

Pyrimido[5,4-c]-pyridazine-8-thione ( 39 ) was obtained by the action of phosphorus pentasulfide on 38. 4-Amino-3-cyanopyridazine ( 16 ) when treated with formamide produced 8-aminopyrimido[5,4-c]-pyridazine ( 41 ). The synthesis of 4-aminopyridazine-3-carboxamide ( 36 ) and 4-amino-3-cyanopyridazine ( 16 ), both key intermediates in the synthesis of the novel pyrimido[5,4-c]pyridazine ring system was accomplished by the Reissert reaction of 4-aminopyridazine-2-oxides and subsequent conversion of the nitrile to the amide.     

Condensed pyridine bases synthesis of some benzo[b]furo[2,3-c]-, benzo[b]- thieno[2,3-c]-, and benzo[b]selenopheno[2,3-c]-quinolines

Summary Condensation of benzo[b]furan-3(2H-one, benzo[b]thiophen-3(2H)-one and benzo[b]selenophen-3(2H)-one with dimedone gives 2-(3-heteryl)dimedones. Acylation of the latter leads to the corresponding tetracyclic pyrylium salts, from which condensed quinolines are obtained. Some condensed quinoline derivatives are obtained by reaction of 1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroheterene[2,3-c]quinolines with sodium borohydride, hydrazine, and hydroxylamine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 321–326, March, 1994.

Synthesis of polyacenequinones via a benzo[2,3-c]furan

1,3-Bis(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4.7-diacetoxybenzo- (2,3-c)furan (3c) serves as a masked-dienophile/diene equivalent, which can elongate a 1,4-quinone by two rings. Elongation Involves a three step sequence of Diels-Alder reaction, dehydrative-aromatization. and oxidative unmasking of the dienophile. This elongation strategy has been used to sequentially convert napthoquinone to a tetracenetetrone and a hexacenetetrone.
