The reactions of the 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonyl[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines 1 and 2 with o-amino-phenol hydrochloride gave the pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 5 and 8 . The alkylation of 5 with methyl iodide and isopropyl iodide afforded the 6-alkoxylpyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino-[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 6a and 6b , respectively. Refluxing of 5, 6a, 6b and 8 in hydrochloric acid/acetic acid resulted in ring transformation to produce the spiro[benzoxazole-2′(3′H),4(1H)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]-triazines] 7a, 7b and 9 . The screening data of the above compounds was described.     

A new method for the synthesis of novel 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines and pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepines

Novel 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines 7,8 were synthesized by the reactions of malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate with the pyrazole-5-diazonium salt 3 . Moreover, compounds 7,8 were converted into the pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepines 9, 10 .     

A convenient synthesis of novel spiro[benzoxazole-2′,4(1H,3′H)-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines] by ring transformation of novel pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines

Novel pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 5, 6 and 8 were synthesized, and these compounds were converted into novel spiro[benzoxazole-2′,4(1H,3′H)-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines] 7 and 9 by ring transformation.     

A new method for the synthesis of novel 6-quinoxalinylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

The reaction of the quinoxaline 1 with 4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazole-5-diazonium chloride 7 at room temperature gave 3-[α-(4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-pyrazol-5-ylhydrazono)methoxycarbonylmethyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxaline 8. The pmr spectrum of 8 in deuteriodimethylsulfoxide supported the presence of two tautomers 8-I and 8-II. Refluxing of 8 in N,N-dimethylformamide or acetic acid resulted in cyclization to afford 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 9. Compound 9 was also obtained directly by the reaction of 1 with 7 under reflux in better yield. The reaction of 9 with hydrazine hydrate provided the hydrazinium salt 10 , while the reactions of 9 with triethyl and trimethyl orthoformates in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]-7-undecene produced 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11a and 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methoxyl-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 11b , respectively. The chlorination of 11a with phosphoryl chloride gave 3-(3-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl)-8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxylpyrazolo[5,1-c]-[1,2,4]triazine 12 , whose reaction with morpholine afforded 8-ethoxycarbonyl-4-ethoxyl-3-[3-(morpholin-4-yl)-quinoxalin-2-yl]pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine 13.     

Synthesis of new halo-substituted pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

Ethyl 3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-7-X-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylates (X = H, Cl, Br) were synthesized for the first time by diazotization of 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4oxo-8-ethoxycarbonyl-6H-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines with tert-butyl nitrite in the presence of trimethylsilyl halides. A new method was developed: a reaction between 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-6H-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylic acid and I₂/TEA followed by treatment with NaBH₄ led to a mild decarboxylation. The acid reacts with N-halosuccinimides to give novel 8-halo-substituted derivatives. The amino groups of the latter were acylated by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride to give monoacylation products.

     

Regioselective alkylation of 1H-7-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole and 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole

Alkylation of 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole and 1H-7-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole using different alkylating agents leads regioselectively to 1-N-alkylated products. The hydrolysis-decarboxylation of 1,6-dimethyl-7-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole yields a compound identical with that obtained by the direct methylation of 1H-6-methyl-3-phenyl-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazole. The 1-N-alkylation is confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.     

Reactivity of 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carbonitrile

Research on nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds. XVII. Synthesis of 8H-diimidazo[1,5-a:2′,1′-c][1,4]benzodiazepine,a novel tetracyclic ring of pharmaceutical interest

The synthesis of 8H-diimidazo[1,5-a:2′,1′-c][1,4]benzodiazepine 6 , a novel nitrogen-containing tetracyclic ring, is reported starting from 5H-imidazo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine 7. Reaction of this compound with nitromethane and subsequent reduction of the obtained nitromethyl derivative 8 afforded 11-aminomethyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine 9. Treatment of the latter compound with formaldehyde led to 1,2,3,3a-tetrahydro-8H-diimidazo[1,5-a:2′,1′-c][1,4]benzodiazepine 10 , which was then oxidized to the title compound.     

Synthesis and X-ray single crystal structure of first aromatic ortho-di-tert-butyl azolo[1,2,4]triazine

Oxidation of 3,4-di-tert-butyl-8-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine with NBS/K₂CO₃ furnished 3,4-di-tert-butyl-8-methylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine, a mildly strained heteroaromatic compound. X-Ray single crystal diffraction analysis indicated that the conjugated 1,2,4-triazine ring adopts a twist-boat configuration, while the two t-Bu substituents are located on the opposite sides of the azole plane. The related 3-tert-butyl-4-(o-C-carboranyl)-8-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine was also synthesized, however, its oxidative aromatization was unsuccessful.

The reaction of 3-R-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid gave 2-R-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-ones. The reaction of a 3-R-1,2,4-triazolyl-5-diazonium salt with the ethyl ester of 2-fluoroacetoacetic acid and subsequent cyclization of the triazolylhydrazones lead to 7-R-3-fluoro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(1H)-ones.

Synthesis of tricyclic and tetracyclic thieno[3,2-f]-1,4-thiazepines

Treatment of 5-methylthio-2,3-dihydrothieno[3,2-f]-1,4-thiazepine ( 9 ) with acylhydrazines gave 5,6-dihydrothieno[3,2-f]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d][1,4]thiazepines 10, 11 , and that of 9 with ethyl anthranilate gave 5,6-dihydrothieno[3′,2′:6,7][1,4]thiazepino[5,4-b]quinazolin-8-one ( 14 ). Reaction of 9 with hydrazine hydrate or 4-chlorophenylhydrazine afforded 5-hydrazino compounds 12, 15 , which were subsequently cyclized to ethyl 5,6-dihydrothieno[3,2-f]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d][1,4]thiazepine-3-carboxylate ( 13 ), 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5,6-dihydrothieno[3,2-f]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d][1,4]thiazepin-3(2H)-one ( 16 ) and 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-6,7-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,2-f][1,2,4]triazino[4,3-d][1,4]thiazepine-3,4-dione ( 17 ). New thieno-anellated heterocycles were prepared with the aim of studying their affinity for the benzodiazepine receptors.     

Synthesis and reactivity of ethyl 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-thioxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate

Treatment of ethyl 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-oxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate with P₂S₅ in pyridine gave ethyl 7-amino-3-tert-butyl-4-thioxo-4,6-dihydropyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazine-8-carboxylate which was subjected to acylation, decarboxylation, and hydrazinolysis.     

Synthesis of pyrido[3,2-e]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazines from pyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazine derivatives

In carrying on our interest in heteropolycyclic structures with biological activities, we projected the preparation of compounds containing the pyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazine or pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]triazepine systems. The established synthetic approach for the preparation of latter system led to the triazine derivatives 5a-f while a new bicyclic triazepine structure 6 is accomplished with difficulty. In expanding the pyridotriazine structure, we obtained derivatives of a new tricyclic structure, 5-substituted-6a-ethyloxycarbonyl-5,6,6a,7-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-e]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-9(8H)-ones 8 in which the triazine ring is fused with a pyrrole nucleus. Compounds 5a-f and 8a,b will be tested as potential CNS depressant, antiinflammatory, analgesic and antibacterial agents.     

Interaction of 4‐Oxo‐4H‐pyrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazin‐1‐ides with Grignard Reagents

Reactions of magnesium 3‐tert‐butyl‐8‐R‐4‐oxo‐4H‐pyrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazin‐1‐ides (R = CN, CO₂Et) with AlkMgBr led to nucleophilic additions to either side chain or triazine core, with selectivity being dependent on the nature of substituents, as well as on the solvents used. Previously inaccessible C⁸‐functionalized and C⁴‐functionalized pyrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines and 3‐tert‐butyl‐3‐ethyl‐4‐oxo‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydropyrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazine were synthesized, and their reactivity and spectral data discussed.

The structures of products 8, 9, 14 and 15 and the intermediates leading to them were confirmed by desulfurization, unequivocal syntheses and nmr spectroscopy as well.     

Synthesis of novel imidazo[1,2-a][3,1]benzothiazines 4, imidazo[1,2-a]-[1,2,4]benzotriazines 5, and 4H-imidazo[2,3-c]pyrido[2,3-e][1,4]oxazines 6

A Convenient Approach to 4,7‐Dihydrotetrazolo [5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazine Synthesis

Azo coupling of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds with tetrazolyl‐5‐diazonium chloride is used to develop a convenient one‐step procedure for the synthesis of 4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines. In contrast to nonfluorinated analogs, 7‐hydroxy‐7‐polyfluoroalkyl‐4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines undergo a ring‐chain isomerism resulting from the cleavage at the C7―N7a bond. A distinctive feature of nonfluorinated 4,7‐dihydrotetrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines is the possibility to dehydration, which is accompanied by an azide rearrangement due to the tetrazole ring cleavage with the formation of tetrazolo[1,5‐b][1,2,4]triazines.     

Synthesis and antiviral evaluation of some novel [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-β][1,2,4]triazole nucleoside analogs

Compounds 1, 4, 6, 7 , and 9 were screened and found to have no antiviral activity.
