Metabolites of 1,5-Dihydroimidazo[2,1-b ]quinazolin-2(3H)-ones. Preparation and Reactions of Some 1,5-Dihydro-3-hydroxyimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-2(3H)-ones Hydroxylated 1,5-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-2(3H)-ones 2–4 and 6 were isolated as metabolites of imidazoquinazolinones 1a and 1b , respectively. The synthesis of 1,5-dihydro-3-hydroxy-3-methylimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-2(3H)-ones 3 , 4 , and 6 , and the preparation of some derivatives thereof is described.     

Pyridazines. LXXXIV. Studies on borohydride reduction of pyridazine compounds

Imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine, s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine and tetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazine and some derivatives thereof were reduced with sodium borohydride to give the corresponding 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro derivatives. A mechanism for these reductions is proposed and reduction at the C₇-C₈ bond occurs before the reduction of the C₆? N₅ bond. Substituents at position 7 and/or 8 cause a significant decrease in the extent of reduction or lead to a 5,6-dihydro derivative by competitive attack at the 6 position.     

SYNTHESIS OF 15H-ISOQUINO[2′,3′:3,4]IMIDAZO[2,1-B]QUINAZOLINE-7,13,15-TRIONES AND 14H-ISOQUINO[2′,3′:3,4]IMIDAZO[2,1-B]BENZO[G]QUINAZOLINE-8,14,16-TRIONE AS NEW POLYCYCLIC FUSED-RING SYSTEMS

3-Thioxo-2H-imidazo[1,5-b]isoquinoline-1,5-dione (3) and 2-sub-stituted 3-thioxo-2H-imidazo[1,5-b]isoquinoline-1,5-diones (4a–l) were prepared from the reaction of 2-thiohydantoin (2) and 3-substituted 2-thiohydantoin (5a–l) with 2-formyl benzoic acid (1). Alkylation of 3 under an anhydrous basic conditions afforded 4a–i. The alkylation of 3 in aqueous basic solution afforded 3-(alkylmercapto)imidazo[1,5-b]isoquinoline-1,5-diones (7a,b). Reactions of the aromatic amino acids 9a,b and 12 with 7a afforded 2-(2H-1,5 dioxoimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinazolin-3-ylideneamino)benzoic acids (10a, b) and 3-(2H-1,5-dioxoimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinazolin-3-ylideneamino)2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid (13), which were then cyclyzed by heating in acetic anhydride to afford 15H-isoquino[2′,3′ :3,4] imidazo[2,1-b]quinazoline-7,13,15-triones (11a,b) and 14H-isoquino[2′,3′:3,4]imidazo[2,1-b]benzo[g]quinazoline-8,14,16-trione (14). Some of the new compounds were tested for their antitumor activities.     

Reactions of 4-Aryl-2-hydrazino-3-nitro-6-R-quinolines with HNO2

The reaction of 4-aryl-2-hydrazino-3-nitro-6-R-quinolines with NaNO₂ in AcOH gives the corresponding tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinolines. In contrast to tetrazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines they cannot be converted to 6-R-4-phenyl[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-b]quinoline-3-oxides by heating in THF, toluene, or AcOH. Total energy quantum-chemical calculations using the MINDO/3 and MNDO methods show that [1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-b]quinoline-3-oxides are significantly higher in energy (230-280 kcal/mol) than the mentioned tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinolines and hence their formation is unlikely.     

Synthesis of pyridazine derivatives. XXI. Tetrazolo-azido transformations in some fused azolopyridazines

6-Azidotetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazine (III) has been prepared by two different routes and is easily transformed into the 6-amino derivative (IV). The attempted cyclization of 6-hydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b] pyridazine (II) into the postulated tricycle has been shown to result in the formation of 6-azido-s-triazolo [4,3-b]pyridazine (VI), obtained also in a separate experiment from VII. The azido structure of VI has been confirmed from spectroscopic data and from its conversion into 6-amino-s-triazolo [4,3-b]pyridazine (VIII), obtained in another experiment from VII. Similarly, cyclization of II with cyanogen bromide resulted in the simultaneous formation of the s-triazolo ring and ring opening of the fused tetrazolo ring, giving IX. For 6-azido-2-phenylimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine (XII) the expected azide structure proved to be correct.

Many other alkenes, particularly the phenyl ethylenes, did not react with compound 1. In general, more than one product was isolated for each reaction except in the case of the two ester alkenes where a single eyanomethyl product was observed.     

Reaction of enol type acyl cyanide with o-aminophenol

The reaction of 7-chloro-4-(2-cyano-2-hydroxyvinyl)tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline 2a with o-aminophenol gave 7-chloro-4-(b-hydroxyphenylcarbamoylmethylene)4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline 4 , while the reaction of compound 2a with o-aminophenol hydrochloride afforded 4-[2-(2-benzoxazolyl)-2-hydroxyvinyl]-7-chlorotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline 5 , whose acetylation provided 4-[2-acetoxy-2-(2-benzoxazolyl)vinyl]-7-chlorotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline 6 . The behavior in a deuteriodimethyl sulfoxide or deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid solution is described for compounds 4–6 .     

Transformations of methyl L-(—)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate, 2-amino-2-thiazoline and 2-aminothiazole into thiazoloazines and azolothiazoles

In the search for potential immunomodulators methyl L-(—)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate (2), 2-amino-2-thiazoline (12), and 2-aminothiazole (19) were transformed into derivatives of various bicyclic systems. Thus, from compound 2 derivatives of perhydrothiazolo[3,4-a]pyrazine 4 and 5, perhydrothiazolo[4,3-c]-[1,4]oxazine 7, and perhydroimidazo[1,5-c]thiazole 9a,b, from compound 12 derivatives of 2,3-dihydro-thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine 13a,b , and from compound 19 derivatives of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole 21, 22, 24, and 25 were prepared. 6-(p-Sulfamoylphenyl)-7-oxoperhydroimidazo[1,5-c]thiazole-5-thione (9a) was found to exhibit immunorestoration activity.

The spectra of 2–10 are of special interest for studying lone pair interactions. The assignment of the PE spectra submitted here, conjointly with the electronic structure of the studied compounds is discussed on the basis of molecular orbital calculations.

α-Amino azoles in the synthesis of heterocycles: VI. Synthesis and structure of cycloalkane-annulated pyrazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidines

Reactions of 4-aryl-1H-pyrazol-5(3)-amines with 2-acylcycloakanones and 2-acyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-diones led to the formation of regioisomeric 6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline, and 7,8-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[e]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives. The product structure was determined by X-ray analysis and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.     

Reactions of 3-aroylacrylates with α-aminoazoles*

Dihydro derivatives of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-, pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-, and [1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidinecarboxylates have been prepared by cyclocondensation of β-aroylacrylates with 5-aminopyrazoles and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. Heating dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-carboxylates with hydrazine hydrate led to recyclization of the pyrimidine ring to form 6-arylpyridazin-3(2H)-ones.     

Synthesis and biological activity of 1,5-dihydropyridazino-[3,4-b]quinoxalines and a new class of quinolones

A new class of quinolones, 1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxaline-3-carboxylic acids and related compounds, were synthesized via oxidation of 1,5-dihydropyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxalines obtained from 2-hydrazinoquinoxaline 4-oxides. Some of the 1,5-dihydropyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxalines, 1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxaline-3-carboxylic acids, and related compounds showed biological activity.     

Ring transformation reactions of C-nucleosides: Facile synthesis of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and pyrazolo[1,5-a]triazine C-nucleosides

1,3-Dimethyluracil ( 1 ), a versatile synthon for the synthesis of various heterocycles, reacted readily with 3-aminopyrazoles 2 in sodium ethoxide to give pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 3 . Under similar conditions, 3-aminopyrazole C-nucleosides 4 and the synthon 1 gave a mixture of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine C-nucleosides, which was separated on a silica gel column. Attempts to remove the protecting groups yielded pyranose derivative 10 . Another synthon 1,3-dimethyl-5-azauracil and 3-aminopyrazoles 12 gave pyrazolo[1,5-a]triazines 13 . In a similar reaction with 3-aminopyrazole C-nucleosides 4 gave the corresponding pyrazolo[1,5-a]-triazine C-nucleosides 14 and 15 .     

The photo cycloaddition of alkenes to s-triazolo[4,3-b] and [2,3-b]pyridazines

s-Triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (I) reacted with cyclohexene under the influence of ultraviolet light to yield 4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-9-methylene-6H-s-triazolo[1,5-a]indole (IV) and 9-cyanomethyl-4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-6H-s-triazolo[1,5-a]indole (V). These products were formed by the addition of the alkene to the 1,8 positions of I with a concurrent cleavage of the N₄? N₅ bond. Similar additions were observed with cyclopentene and 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene. The isomeric s-triazolo[2,3-b]pyridazine (III) reacted with cyclohexene to form an isomer of IV, 4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-9-methylene-6H-s-triazolo[4,3-a]indole (XV) and two [2 + 2] cycloadducts (XVI and XVII).     

Studies on the Synthesis of New 3-(3,5-Diamino-1-substituted-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and 3-(2-Amino-5,7-disubstituted-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-yl)azothieno[2,3-b]pyridines

Coupling the diazonium salt of 3-amino-2-cyano-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 1 with malononitrile 2 gave 2-cyano-3-(hydrazonomalononitrile)-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 3 which then reacted with hydrazine compounds 4a-4h to yield corresponding 2-cyano-3-(3,5-diamino-1-substituted-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 5a-5h. The 2-cyano-3-(2-amino-5,7-disubstituted-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines 7a-7f were obtained in good yield by the cyclocondensation reaction of 2-cyano-3-(3,5-diamino-pyrazol-4-yl)azo-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine 5a with the appropriate 1,3-diketones 6a-6f under acidic condition.     

Synthesis of some novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolines and their fused derivatives

New pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline-3-carbonitriles 4a,b were obtained via cyclocondensation of 5-amino-3-cyanomethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (1) with enaminones of 1,3-cyclohexanedione derivatives 2a,b in refluxing glacial acetic acid. Condensation of compounds 4a,b with various aromatic aldehydes furnished the corresponding arylidene derivatives 6a–j. On the other hand, condensation of 4a,b with o-hydroxybenzaldehydes yielded the polyheterocyclic compounds 10a–h. Coupling of compounds 4a,b with aryldiazonium chlorides led to formation of 2-arylhydrazono derivatives 12a–h. Also, reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate, followed by addition of ethyl chloroacetate and chloroacetonitrile, afforded the polyheterocyclic compounds based on pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline core. The reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate and elemental sulfur gave the thiazole-2-thione derivatives 25a,b. The reaction of enamines of compounds 4a,b with each of hydrazine hydrate and guanidine hydrochloride afforded pyrazolo[4″,3″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-8-ones 30a,b and pyrimido[5″,4″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-9(10H)-ones 33a,b, respectively. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by elemental analyses and spectral data. The plausible mechanisms have been postulated to account for their formation.     

Pyridazines. XXXIV. Electron-impact induced fragmentation of some s-triazolo[4,3-b] pyridazines,tetrazolo[1,5-b] pyridazines and related compounds

Mass spectra of several 4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazines and tetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazines were examined in order to establish their fragmentation patterns. Two distinct patterns could be observed upon electron impact of s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazines and tetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazines. Azidotetrazolopyridazines show a loss of six nitrogens. This can be accounted for by a path proceeding via a molecular ion with a bis-tetrazolo structure.     

Reliable Functionalization of 5,6-Fused Bicyclic N-Heterocycles Pyrazolopyrimidines and Imidazopyridazines via Zinc and Magnesium Organometallics

DFT-calculations allow prediction of the reactivity of uncommon N-heterocyclic scaffolds of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazines and considerably facilitate their functionalization. The derivatization of these N-heterocycles was realized using Grignard reagents for nucleophilic additions to 5-chloropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and TMP₂Zn ⋅ 2 MgCl₂ ⋅ 2 LiCl allowed regioselective zincations. In the case of 6-chloroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine, bases such as TMP₂Zn ⋅ MgCl₂ ⋅ 2 LiCl, in the presence or absence of BF₃ ⋅ OEt₂, led to regioselective metalations at positions 3 or 8. Subsequent functionalizations were achieved with TMPMgCl ⋅ LiCl, producing various polysubstituted derivatives (up to penta-substitution). X-ray analysis confirmed the regioselectivity for key functional heterocycles.     

Nuclear magnetic resonance data of pyrido[2,3-B] pyrazines and their σ-adducts with amide ion and water

¹³C nmr spectral data of the parent substance pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine and several of its derivatives (containing one or more chloro, amino, oxo, bromo, fluoro, phenyl, methyl, hydrazino or t-butyl substituents) are reported. The ¹³C nmr spectrum of the parent substance has been assigned conclusively by ¹³C-labelling. Additionally we proved, the existence of anionic 1:1 σ-adducls i.e., 3-amino-3,4-dihydropyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine, the formation of 3-amino-2-t-butyl-6-chloro-3,4-dihydropyrido[2,3-b]pyrazinide ion and by ¹H nmr spectroscopy 2-amino-1,2-dihydro-3-phenylpyrido[2,3-b]pyrazinide ion. The ¹³C nmr data of the cation of the dihydrale 2,3-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine, present in a solution of the parent compound in N hydrochloric acid, are given.
