Acylation of Heterocyclic Ketene Aminals with Propionyl Chloride

Heterocyclic ketene aminals 1 or 2 reacted with propionyl chloride to give both the mono-N-and C-acylated products 4 and 5 or 6 and 7. While N-methyl heterocyclic ketene aminals 3 reacted with propionyl chloride under the same condition, the reaction took place in complexity. Besides N-and C-acylation, the O-attack and heterocyclic ring cleavage also occurred to give products 8 and 9.

Diaminomethylidene derivatives of β-oxo sulfones as potential reagents in heterocyclic synthesis and chelating ligands

Active methylene β-oxo sulfones add to the C≡N bond of benzoylcyanamide in the presence of catalytic amounts of Ni(acac)₂. Debenzoylation of the reaction products under the action of MeONa in MeOH gives N,N′-unsubstituted diaminomethylidene derivatives of β-oxo sulfones (acyl(R-sulfonyl)ketene aminals), which can be used as reagents for heterocyclic synthesis and as chelating ligands. The syntheses of 2-amino-3-arylsulfonylpyridin-4(1H)-ones and 5-sulfonylcytosine derivatives are presented as examples.     

Design and synthesis of some new thiophene and 1,3,4-thiadiazole based heterocycles

Abstract

The reaction of 3-oxopropanenitriles with phenyl isothiocyanate in DMF containing KOH afforded the corresponding potassium salts. The latter salts were converted into ketene N,S-acetals upon acidification with hydrogen chloride. The reaction of the ketene N,S-acetals with 2-bromo-1-[5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]ethan-1-one or 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-2H-chromen-2-one gave novel thiophenes in good yields. Treatment of the ketene N,S-acetals with hydrazonyl halides afforded 1,3,4-thiadiazoles in good yields. The stereochemistry of the synthesized compounds was studied.     

Facile Synthesis of Nicotinic Acid Derivatives with Unsymmetrical Substitution Patterns

Abstract

Two novel methods for synthesis of nicotinic acid derivatives with unsymmetrical substitution patterns were presented via ketene dithioacetals. The ketene N,S-acetals 2 reacted with β-ketoesters or β-cyanoesters to give 4-amino-5-cyano-2-alkyl-6-methylthio-nicotinic acid derivatives 3 or 2,4-diamino-5-cyano-6-methylthio-nicotinic acid ethyl ester 4. However, 6-amino-5-cyano-2-alkyl-4-methylthio-nicotinic acid esters 6 were obtained by the reaction of the ketene dithioacetals 1 and β-amino-crotonates.

Acetyl ketene aminals in Nenitzescu reaction

Nenitzescu reaction of acetyl ketene aminals (N,N-acetals) was investigated. The interaction of 2-acetyl-1-amino-1-anilinoethene with benzoquinone gave 3-acetyl-2-amino-7a-hydroxy-1-phenyl-5,7a-dihydro-1H-indol-5-one, which was then transformed into 3-acetyl-2-amino-6-chloro-5-hydroxy-1-phenylindole. The reaction of benzoquinone with 2-acetyl-1-amino-1-benzoylaminoethene led to the corresponding hydroquinone-adduct which was oxidized to 4-acetylamino-5-(2,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-phenyloxazole.

A new representative of hetarylketene aminals, ethyl 3,3-diamino-2-(2-p-tolylpyrimidin-4-yl)acrylate, was synthesized by the reaction ofp-toluamidine with the condensation product of dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal and the difluoroboron chelate of acetyl(ethoxycarbonyl)ketene (N-benzoyl)aminal.

Synthetic exploitation of halogenated alkenes containing an electron-withdrawing group: synthesis of α-chlorohydrazones and ketene aminals by regiospecific reactions of in situ generated imide chlorides

A concise approach for the construction of ketene aminals and α-chlorohydrazones has been developed. It involves reactions of the regiodefined gem-dihalo nitrovinyl compound of in situ generated imide chlorides in different media with primary arylamines being dependent on the aryl groups. A range of ketene aminals and α-chlorohydrazones are obtained in good to high yields. In addition, α-aminohydrazones are prepared by using α-chlorohydrazones as the precursors.

An efficient one‐pot four‐component protocol for the synthesis of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines was developed by condensing ethane‐1,2‐diamine ( 2 ), 1,1‐bis(methylthio)‐2‐nitroethene ( 1 ), aldehydes 3 , and activated methylene compounds in EtOH under reflux conditions (Tables 1–3). The features of this procedure are operational simplicity, good yields of products, in situ preparation of heterocyclic ketene aminals (HKA), and catalyst‐free conditions.     

Addition of acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate to carbodiimides promoted by nickel acetylacetonate

The addition reactions of acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate with diphenylcarbodiimide and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in the presence of nickel acetylacetonate afforded N,N"-substituted ,-dioxoketene aminals. Adducts of acetylacetone with carbodiimides are readily deacetylated with MeONa in MeOH to form acetylketene aminals. Ketene aminals were used for the synthesis of functionalized 1,2,3-triazoles.     

One-pot synthesis and conformational features of n,n'-disubstituted ketene aminals

N,N'-Disubstituted ketene aminals are bioisosteres of thioureas and are useful building blocks in many synthetic operations. A convenient one-pot synthesis of N,N'-disubstituted ketene aminals from activated methylene compounds and isothiocyanates is described. Most of these aminals exist in rotameric equilibrium around the central C=C bonds in solution, and the rotamers are stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding both in solution and in solid states.     

Derivatives of 5-(Dimethylamino)-4-tosyl-1,3-oxazole-2-carbaldehyde and Its Analogs

Treatment of N-(2,2,2-trichloro-1-tosylethyl)dichloroacetamide with excess dimethylamine, piperidine, or morpholine gave substituted aminals of the oxazole series, whose facile acid hydrolysis provided 5-(dimethylamino)-4-tosyl-1,3-oxazol-2-carbaldehyde and its analogs having the piperidino and morpholino group in the 5 position of the oxazole ring. The resulting aldehydes and their aminals were condensed with phenylhydrazine, thiosemicarbazide, N-alkylrhodanines, and 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid to obtain 2,5-disubstituted derivatives of 4-tosyl-1,3-oxazole.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 6, 2005, pp. 1002–1006.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Vyzhdak, Danielova, Kiselev, Drach.     

Application of 2-(2-chloroaroyl)methyleneimidazolidines in domino and multicomponent reaction: new entries to imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and benzo[b]imidazo[1,2,3-ij][1,8]naphthyridines

A new strategy for the synthesis of tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and unusual tetrahydrobenzo[b]imidazo[1,2,3-ij][1,8]naphthyridines has been successfully developed by cascade reactions including Knoevenagel condensation, aza-ene reaction, imine-enamine tautomerization, cyclocondensation/oxidation, and intramolecular S_NAr of precursors 2-(2-chloroaroyl)methyleneimidazolidines as new heterocyclic ketene aminals (HKA), which represent a class of polyfunctional scaffolds with four active reaction sites with aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile or ethyl 2-cyanoacetate under mild conditions. In this domino reaction, nine different active sites are involved, and two C-C bonds, two C-N bonds, and two new rings are constructed with all reactants efficiently utilized in the chemical transformation.     

Formation of the 5-Azoniafulvene Ion and its Benzo-annellated Analogue from N-Mannich Bases of Pyrrole and Indole

1-Dialkylaminomethylpyrroles are shown to behave in many respects like aminals. Acylation by an acid chloride, for instance, occurs normally at the amine-type N-atom rather than at the pyrrole ring. Spontaneous cleavage of the resulting quaternary acylammonium salts affords the 5-azoniafulvene ion ( 3 ). This higly reactive iminium ion, and its benzo-annellated analogue ( 4 ) can be trapped by electron rich aromatic compounds such as N-methylpyrrole or N,N-dimethylaniline. More elaborate N-Mannich bases are accessible by addition of indoles to enamines.
