Reaction 5-(Arylmethylidene)pyrimidine-2,4,6(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>,3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>,5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-triones with L-Proline and Aldehydes

Boiling in toluene of 5-(arylmethylidene)pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-triones with L-proline and aldehyde led to the formation of previously unknown substituted 1′-arylhexahydro-1H-spiro[pyrimidine-5,2′-pyrrolysine]-2,4,6(1H,3Н,5Н)-triones.     

Regioselective synthesis of polyfluoroalkyl-substituted 7-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-indazol-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

3-Polyfluoroalkyl-6,6-dimethyl-7-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones were synthesized with high regioselectivity by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes (phenylacetylene, hex- 1-yne, hept-1-yne, and but-3-yn-1-ol) to 7-azido-6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones which were prepared by bromination of 6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol- 4(5H)-ones with N-bromosuccinimide in anhydrous carbon tetrachloride, followed by treatment of the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives with sodium azide.

Previously unknown substituted 4-aryl-2,7,9-triazaspiro[4.5]decane-6,8,10-triones were synthesized in 50–70% yield by heating 5-(arylmethylidene)barbituric acids with N-methyl- or N-phenylglycine and para-formaldehyde or 4-methoxybenzaldehyde in boiling toluene for 14 h.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and properties of 5-(het)aryl-3-cyano-1-ethyl-2(1<Emphasis Type=Italic>H</Emphasis>)-pyrazinones

A simple method for the synthesis of 5-(het)aryl-3-cyano-1-ethyl-2(1H)-pyrazinones was proposed. The method is based on the hydrolysis of the corresponding 2,3-dicyanopyrazinium salts. The spectral properties of pyrazinones were studied and their crystallographic investigation was carried out. The possibility of introduction of 5-(het)aryl-3-cyano-1-ethyl-2(1H)-pyrazinones into the [2+4] cycloaddition under the microwave activation conditions was shown.     

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.

Treatment of 5-amino-1,3-dialkyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones with sodium nitrite in aqueous HCl gave 1,3-dialkyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine-2,5(3H,4H)-diones which were nitrated with potassium nitrate in sulfuric acid to 6-nitro derivatives, and the latter underwent recyclization into 4-amino-1,3-dialkyl-5-(1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ones by the action of hydrazine hydrate.

Cyclizations of monocyclic 5-nitropyridin-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Reactions of 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and its N-methyl derivative with hydrazine hydrate led to the formation of (1H-pyrazol-3-yl) acetohydrazide. Under analogous conditions, 1,3-dimethyl-5-nitropyridin2(1H)-one gave rise to 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propionohydrazide, while 6-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one was converted into (5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)acetohydrazide. Hydrazinolysis of 4-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one resulted in the formation of 3-methyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole. The mechanism of recyclization of nitropyridine derivatives by the action of hydrazine hydrate was studied using 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and 1-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one as examples.     

Reactions of 1-nitrocyclohexene with <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-binucleophiles

A modification of 1-nitrocyclohexene synthesis is proposed; its reaction with phenylhydrazine and benzoic acid hydrazide is shown to afford monoadducts, and with hydrazine hydrate, bisaduct. With diphenylguanidine occurs heterocyclization to 1-phenyl-2-N-phenylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzimidazole, whose structure is confirmed by the X-ray diffraction data. The analysis performed for this compound of the electron density distribution function in the crystal made it possible to estimate the charge distribution, π-electrons delocalization nature, and the role of N-H…N, C-H…H-C and C-H…C interactions in the formation of the crystal packing.     

Tautomerism of azacycles: III. Molecular and crystal structures of 3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-and 2-phenyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>,4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones

Compounds capable of tautomerism: sulfanyl-1,2,4-triazole, its C-phenyl derivative, and the crystal hydrate of the latter, were studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystals they exist in the form of 3-R-1(H),4(H)-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione with a considerable contribution of the bipolar structure. Published data on the tautomerism of sulfanyl-1,2,4-triazoles and their N-substituted analogs and on the correlation between the spectral characteristics and structures of sulfanyl-1,2,4-triazoles capable of tautomerism are discussed.     

Synthesis of 4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazole-5-carbaldoxime 3-oxides and 4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-imidazole-5-carbonitrile 3-oxides

The condensation of 3-hydroxyamino-3-methylbutan-2-one or 3-ethyl-3-hydroxyamino-pentan-2-one with aldehydes and ammonia afforded a series of new 1-hydroxy-4-methyl-2,5-dihydroimidazoles, whose oxidation gave rise to the corresponding 5-methyl-4H-imidazole 3-oxides. The latter, like 1-hydroxy-4-methyl-2,5-dihydroimidazoles, react with PrⁱONO in the presence of bases to form 4H-imidazole-5-carbaldoxime 3-oxides, which are transformed into 4H-imidazole-5-carbonitrile 3-oxides in the reaction with TsCl in the presence of Et₃N. The by-products produced in different steps of the synthesis were isolated and characterized. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

N-Allyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides in reactions with polyphosphoric acid, with N-halosuccinimides in chloroform, and with (chlorosulfanyl)benzenes in nitromethane in the presence of lithium perchlorate underwent cyclization involving the N-allylamide fragment to give 4-[5-methyl(halomethyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl]-1H-pyrazol-5-amines and 2-(5-amino-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-[(arylsulfanyl)methyl]-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazolium perchlorates, respectively. Analogous reactions of N-propargyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides with polyphosphoric acid afforded 4-(5-methyloxazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-5-amines, and with (chlorosulfanyl) benzenes, 2-(5-amino-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-[(arylsulfanyl)methylidene]-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazolium perchlorates.     

Alkylation of 2-(hydroxyimino)-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-3(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Complexes of cobalt(II) halides with 2-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazol-1-yl)-4(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-pyrimidinone

The electronic structures of complexes of cobalt(II) halides with 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4(3H)-pyrimidinone have been studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The Co2p _3/2 lines of cobalt atoms, N1s lines of nitrogen atoms, and O1s lines of oxygen atoms in the X-ray photoelectron spectra have been analyzed. Based on these data for the free and coordinated ligands, the atoms of the ligand coordinated to the central metal atom are determined. The coordinated organic compound serves as an electron-donating ligand. The results obtained are consistent with IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic data.
