Synthesis of 4-thiouridine, 6-thioinosine, and 6-thioguanosine 3',5'-O-bisphosphates as donor molecules for RNA ligation and their application to the synthesis of photoactivatable TMG-capped U1 snRNA fragments

4-Thiouridine, 6-thioguanosine, and 6-thioinosine 3',5'-bisphosphates (9, 20, and 28) were synthesized in good yields by considerably improved methods. In the former two compounds, uridine and 2-N-phenylacetylguanosine were converted via transient O-trimethylsilylation to the corresponding 4- and 6-O-benzenesulfonyl intermediates (2 and 13), which, in turn, were allowed to react with 2-cyanoethanethiol in the presence of N-methylpyrrolidine to give 4-thiouridine (3) and 2-N-phenylacetyl-6-thioguanosine derivatives (14), respectively. In situ dimethoxytritylation of these thionucleoside derivatives gave the 5'-masked products 4 and 15 in high overall yields from 1 and 11. 6-S-(2-Cyanoethyl)-5'-O-(4,4'-dimethoxytrityl)-6-thioinosine (23) was synthesized via substitution of the 5'-O-tritylated 6-chloropurine riboside derivative 22 with 2-cyanoethanethiol. These S-(2-cyanoethyl)thionucleosides were converted to the 2'-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)ribonucleoside 3'-phosphoramidite derivatives 7, 18, and 26 or 3',5'-bisphosphate derivatives 8, 19, and 27. Treatment of 8, 19, and 27 with DBU gave thionucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphate derivatives 9, 20, and 28, which were found to be substrates of T4 RNA ligase. These thionucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphates were examined as donors for ligation with m3(2,2,7) G5'pppAmUmA, i.e., the 5'-terminal tetranucleotide fragment of U1 snRNA, The 4-thiouridine 3',5'-bisphosphate derivative 9 was found to serve as the most active substrate of T4 RNA ligase with a reaction efficiency of 96%.     

Heteroadamantanes and their derivatives

5,7,-Dinitro-6,6-dimethyl-1,3-diazaadamantane was synthesized by condensation of 1,3-dinitro-2,2-dimethyl-propane with hexamethylenetetramine. Like the previously prepared 5,7-dinitro-1,3-diazaadamantane, it is converted into the corresponding diamino derivative with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of a nickel catalyst, and the diamino compounds gave the 5,7-dibromo derivatives on treatment with sodium nitrite in conc. HBr. The latter were converted to 6,6-dimethyl-1,3-diazaadamantane and 1,3-diazaadamantane on treatment with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of nickel catalyst in ethanol.For Communication 18 see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 230–233, February, 1993.     

Mechanism of autoxidation of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine: effect of fluorine substitution at positions 4 and/or 6

Analogs of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT), namely, 4-fluoro-, 6-fluoro-, and 4,6-difluoro-5,7-DHT's (30a-c) were synthesized starting from 4-fluorophenol (7a), 4-fluorobenzyl alcohol (12) and 2,4-difluorophenol (7b), respectively. Regiospecific hydroxylation and formylation ortho to fluoro groups, both via aryllithium intermediates, were made possible by the blocking effect of tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy functions and allowed the conversion of the starting materials to the key intermediates, namely, 3,5-bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-2-fluoro-, 4-fluoro- and 2,4-difluorobenzaldehydes (11a, b and 19, respectively). The latter were converted in one step to the corresponding benzyloxybenzaldehydes, from which indole-2-carboxylates 22a-c were synthesized via azidostyrenes 21a-c, respectively. Decarbonylation of the indole-2-carboxaldehydes (24a-c) produced from 22a-c in two steps gave 2,3-unsubstituted indoles 25a-c, respectively. Introduction of the aminoethyl side chains on C-3 of 25a-c via the corresponding indole-3-acetonitriles, and subsequent debenzylation generated the hydroxytryptamines, which were isolated as their creatinine sulfate salts 30a-c, respectively. Cyclic voltammetric studies indicated that like 5,7-DHT, 30a-c undergo electrochemical oxidation in 1 M H2SO4 via the corresponding p-quinoneimine derivatives 31a-c by an electrochemical-chemical-electrochemical (ECE) process. The voltammetrically detectable products of the ECE process appear to be the corresponding 5-hydroxytryptamine-4,7-dione (6) derivatives 33a-c. The nature of the interaction of dissolved O2 with 30a-c at pH 7.4 appears to be strikingly different from that of 5,7-DHT, which undergoes autoxidation at pH 7.4 via the 4-hydroperoxy derivative 4 to the quinone 6.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

An efficient synthesis and reactions of novel indolylpyridazinone derivatives with expected biological activity

Reaction of 4-anthracen-9-yl-4-oxo-but-2-enoic acid (1) with indole gave the corresponding butanoic acid 2. Cyclocondensation of 2 with hydrazine hydrate, phenyl hydrazine, semicarbazide and thiosemicarbazide gave the pyridazinone derivatives 3a-d. Reaction of 3a with POCl(3) for 30 min gave the chloropyridazine derivative 4a, which was used to prepare the corresponding carbohydrate hydrazone derivatives 5a-d. Reaction of chloropyridazine 4a with some aliphatic or aromatic amines and anthranilic acid gave 6a-f and 7, respectively. When the reaction of the pyridazinone derivative 3a with POCl(3) was carried out for 3 hr an unexpected product 4b was obtained. The structure of 4b was confirmed by its reaction with hydrazine hydrate to give hydrazopyridazine derivative 9, which reacted in turn with acetyl acetone to afford 10. Reaction of 4b with methylamine gave 11, which reacted with methyl iodide to give the trimethylammonium iodide derivative 12. The pyridazinone 3a also reacted with benzene- or 4-toluenesulphonyl chloride to give 13a-b and with aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes to give 14a-g. All proposed structures were supported by IR, (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR, and MS spectroscopic data. Some of the new products showed antibacterial activity.     

SYNTHESIS AND REACTIONS OF SOME NEW THIENO[2,3-b]-PYRIDINES AND THE ANTIMICROBIAL EFFECTS

Abstract

3,5-Dicyano-6-mercapto-4-phenylpyridin-2(1H)-one (1) was reacted with ethyl chloroacetate to give compound (II) which on reaction with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazide derivative (III). Acylation of (III) with acetic acid, phenylisocyanate, or phenylisothiocyanate gave different monoacyl derivatives (IV-VI). Condensation of III with aromatic aldehydes and acetylacetone gave compounds VII_a-c, VIII respectively. Compound I was reacted with chloroanilides, bromoacetone and phenacyl bromide to yield the IX-XI; these and compound II gave thieno[2,3-b]-pyridines (XU-XV) on treatment with sodium ethoxide solution. Reaction of XII with acetic anhydride gave the diacetyl derivative XVI. Hydrolysis of compound XII with sodium hydroxide gave the corresponding acid (XVII) which on treatment with acetic anhydride gave the oxazine derivative (XVIII). Reaction of oxazine compound XVIII with ammonium acetate and hydrazine hydrate gave pyrido[3′,2′:4,5] thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4.7-dione derivative (XIX) and (XX) respectively. The N-amino derivative (XX) was reacted with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde to give the corresponding azomethine (XXI).

Significant in vitro gram-positive and gram negative antibacterial activities as well as anti-fungal effect were observed for some members of the series.     

Hydrazinolysis of 4-acyl and 4-ethoxycarbonyl-3H-imidazo[1,5-b]-pyridazine-5,7-(6H)diones: 8-Oxo-1,4,7,8-tetrahydropyridazino-[4,5-c]pyridazine, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydropyridazino[4,5-c]pyridazine and 5,8-dioxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydropyridazino[4,5-c]pyridazine derivatives

Reaction of 4-acyl-3H-imidazo[1,5-b]pyridazine-5,7-(6H)diones with hydrazine hydrate gave 3R-5R′-8-oxo-1,4,7,8-tetrahydropyridazino[4,5-c]pyridazine together with 3R-5R′-8-oxo-7,8-dihydropyridazino[4,5-c]pyridazine derivatives. Their structures were assigned by means of elemental analyses and spectroscopic data (ir, uv, nmr and ms). The conclusive structural elucidation involved the fact that 2R-4-ethoxycarbonyl-3H-imidazo[1,5-b]pyridazine-5,7-(6H)-diones treated with hydrazine hydrate afforded 3R-5,8-dioxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydropyridazino-[4,5-c]pyridazine which, upon dehydrogenation, gave products previously reported in the literature.

5‐Ethoxycarbonyl‐4‐methyl‐2‐phenylpyrimidin‐6(1H)‐thione ( 3 ), which was prepared from the reaction of ethyl β‐aminocrotonate 1 with benzoyl isothiocyanate ( 2 ) in refluxing acetone, was reacted with halo compounds to give S‐alkyl derivatives 4a‐h . Treatment of compounds 4a‐c with sod. ethoxide cyclized into thienopyrimidine 10a‐c . Hydrazinolysis of compound 3 gave hydroxypyrazolopyrimidine derivative 6 . Also the latter compound was obtained upon heating compound 4a with hydrazine hydrate under neat conditions, but when compound 4a refluxed with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol the corresponding carbohydrazide 5 was produced.     

Synthesis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 2-sulfamoyladenosine (6-amino-9-β-D-ribofuranosylpurine-2-sulfonamide)

2-Amino-9-β-D-ribofuranosylpurine-2-sulfonamide (2-sulfamoyladenosine, 4 ), a congener of sulfonosine ( 3 ), was synthesized by four different routes. Acid catalyzed fusion of 6-chloropurine-2-sulfonyl fluoride ( 5 ) with 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranose ( 8 ) gave a good yield of 6-chloro-9-(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)purine-2-sulfonyl fluoride ( 9 ). Ammonolysis of 9 furnished 4 . Lewis acid catalyzed glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl derivative of either 6-chloropurine-2-sulfonamide ( 6 ) or 6-aminopurine-2-sulfonamide ( 7 ) with 8 gave the corresponding N9-glycosylated products, 10 and 11 , respectively, which on ammonolysis gave 4 . Amination of 2-thioadenosine ( 12 ) with chloramine solution gave the sulfenamide derivative 13 , which on subsequent oxidation with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid furnished an alternate route to 4 . The structure of 4 was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. 2-Sulfamoyladenosine ( 4 ) is devoid of significant inhibitory activity against L1210 leukemia in mice.

The key intermediate 4-amino-3,3-difluorotetrahydrothiophen-2-ylmethyl benzoate 15 was prepared from 2,2-difluoro-1-[(4R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]but-3-en-1-ol 3 in 11 steps. The construction of pyrimidine ring with the amino group of compound 15 gave the target compound 1.     

Synthesis,characterization, and biological activities of some novel thienylpyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines and related heterocycles

3-Cyano-5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-4-(2′-thienyl)-pyridine-2(1H)-thione ( 1 ) is synthesized and reacted with chloroacetamide or chloroacetonitrile to give 3-amino-5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-4(2′-thienyl)-thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide 3a or its 2-carbonitrile analog 3b , respectively. Cyclocondensation of 3a with triethylorthoformate produced the corresponding pyridothienopyrimidineone 4 , which on heating with phosphorus oxychloride gave 4-chloropyrimidine derivative 5 . Compound 5 was used as key intermediate for synthesizing compounds 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , and 12 upon treatment with some nucleophilic reagents such as thiourea, 5-phenyl-s-triazole-3(1H)-thione, piperidine, morpholine, or hydrazine hydrate, respectively. Reaction of pyridothienopyrimidinethione 6 with N-(4-tolyl)-2-chloroacetamide or ethyl bromoacetate afforded the corresponding S-substituted methylsulfanylpyrimidines 7 or 8 . The condensation of 3b with triethylorthoformate gave azomethine derivative 13 , which was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give ethyl 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-4-imino-7-methyl-9-(2′-thienyl)pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-8-carboxylate ( 14 ). Compounds 12 and 14 were used as precursors for synthesizing other new thienylpyridothienopyrimidines as well as isomeric thienyl-s-triazolopyridothieno- pyrimidines. All synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental and spectral analyses such as IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR. In addition, majority of synthesized compounds were tested for their antifungal activity against five strains of fungi. Moreover, compounds 3a , 5 , 6 , 8 , and 22 were screened for their anticancer activity against HEPG-2 and MCF-7 cell lines.     

Synthesis of novel acyclonucleosides. Reactions of 1-(2-oxopropyl)pyridazin-6-ones

Multi-substituted-1-(1-bromo-2-oxopropyl)pyridazin-6-ones 3, 4 , multi-substituted-1-(1,1-dibromo-2-oxopropyl)pyridazin-6-ones 7, 8 , and multi-substituted-1-(3-bromo-2-oxopropyl)pyridazin-6-ones 5, 6 were synthesized from the corresponding 1-(2-oxopropyl)pyridazin-6-ones 1, 2 by the selective bromination in acidic or neutral medium. And treatment of 1,1-dibromo-2-oxopropyl derivatives 7, 8 with aqueous potassium carbonate gave the corresponding pyridazin-6-ones 9, 10 by the dealkylation. Reaction of 1 with methanolic potassium cyanide afforded only the corresponding 4-methoxy derivative 11 , whereas reaction of 2 with methanolic potassium cyanide gave 4-methoxy derivative 12 and 2-cyano-2-hydroxypropyl derivative 13 . Reaction of 1 and 2 with hydroxylamine in methanol afforded the corresponding syn-2-hydroxyiminopropyl derivatives 14 and 15 .     

Synthesis and some transformations of methyl [4-(oxoacetyl)phenyl]carbamate

The oxidation of methyl (4-acetylphenyl)carbamate with selenium dioxide in dioxane–water (30: 1) gave methyl [4-(oxoacetyl)phenyl]carbamate whose condensation with ethyl acetoacetate or diethyl malonate and hydrazine hydrate afforded ethyl 3-methyl-6-[4-(methoxycarbonylamino)phenyl]pyridazine-4-carboxylate and methyl {4-[5-(hydrazinecarbonyl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridazin-3-yl]phenyl}carbamate, respectively. The reaction of methyl [4-(oxoacetyl)phenyl]carbamate with o-phenylenediamine in dimethylformamide–ethanol on heating led to the formation of methyl [4-(quinoxalin-2-yl)phenyl]carbamate. Methyl {4-(5,7-dioxo- 4,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydropyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazin-3-yl)phenyl}carbamate and methyl {4-(5-oxo-7-sulfanylidene- 4,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydropyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazin-3-yl)phenyl}carbamate were synthesized by reactions of methyl [4-(oxoacetyl)phenyl]carbamate with barbituric and thiobarbituric acids, respectively, and hydrazine hydrate in the presence of zirconyl chloride octahydrate at room temperature.     

UV-ABC screens of luteolin derivatives compared to edelweiss extract

Pure luteolin is a remarkably heat (200°C/6 days) and UV stable UV-A screen, however, native luteolin enriched to 37% in an edelweiss extract lost its UV-A screen properties upon UV irradiation (～4MJm(-2)). This contrasting behavior led to the examination of a series of purified luteolin derivatives as UV screen candidates. 3',4',5,7-Tetralipoyloxyflavones were synthesized from luteolin (3',4',5,7-tetrahydroxyflavone) and fatty acid chlorides. These acylated semi-biomolecules show a hypsochromic shift in UV-Vis spectra of about Δλ(A→B)=58nm and absorbed in the centre of the harmful UV-B band (λ(max)=295nm). Luteolin was also hydroxyethylated with Br(CH(2))(2)OH. This substitution has no effect on the λ(max)=330nm absorption of luteolin (UV-A band). Finally the natural 4'-O-β-glucosyl-3',5,7-trihydroxyflavone was extracted from edelweiss and used as a purified natural benchmark. Glycosylated and hydroxyethylated luteolin are both UV stable. Fully acylated luteolin derivatives degrade upon UV exposure to a stable UV-C screen with a hypsochroic shift Δλ(B→C)=35nm. All in all, three molecular structures based on luteolin with sunscreen properties were found, distinguishable in: UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C filters. The natural product based UV-absorbers show promise as alternatives to synthetic molecules and nanoparticles in sunscreen products.     

Synthesis and some transformations of 6(8)-substituted 4-hydrazino-2-methylquinolines

6(8)-Substituted 4-hydrazino-2-methylquinolines were synthesized by reaction of the corresponding 4-chloro-2-methylquinolines with hydrazine hydrate. Reactions of the title compounds with ethyl acetoacetate and acetone gave 2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinolines and 4-(5-ethoxy-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-methylquinolines.     

Synthesis of 2-carbethoxy-3-methyl-4-hydroxybenzofuran derivatives

A number of 2-.carbethoxy-3-methylbenzofuran derivatives were synthesized. A 5,5-gem-dibromo derivative was obtained in the bromination of 2-carbethoxy-3-methyl-4-oxo-4, 5,6,7,tetrahydrobenzofuran. Dehydrobromination of this, dibromo derivative gave 2-carbethoxy-3-methyl-4-hydroxy-5-bromobenzofuran. Depending on the structure of the starting compound and the brominating agent, the bromine in the bromination of 2-carbethoxy-3-methyl-4-hydroxy- and 4-acetoxybenzofurans with bromine and N-bromosuccinimide is incorporated either in the methyl group or in 5 and 7 positions of the benzofuran ring. The nitration of 2-carbethoxy-3-methyl-4-hydroxybenzofuran and its bromo derivative leads to 5-nitro- and 5,7-dinitrobenzofuran derivatives. The structures of the synthesized benzofuran derivatives were established by means of the PMR spectra.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 27–29, January, 1980.
