A synthesis of 6-functionalized 4,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

6-Unsubstituted 7-R-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (R = H or Me) were synthesized via two pathways: (a) deacylation of the corresponding 5-acetyl Biginelli-like precursors in KOH/H₂O and (b) reduction of the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines using LiAlH₄. The products could be easily formylated at position 6, which is promising for the further synthesis of functionalized 6-substituted derivatives of 4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. In contrast, 6-acetyl-7-(4-(N,N-dimethylaminophenyl))-5-methyl-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine undergoes a cascade process in KOH/H₂O, leading to the formation of a 4,5,8,9-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline derivative.     

2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidines: Synthesis and reactions with electrophilic reagents

The hydrogenation of 2-amino-5-R-7-R′-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines with NaBH₄ led to the formation of 2-amino-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. Acylation, sulfonylation, and alkylation of these compounds depending on conditions and the reagent character occur at the amino group, atoms N³ or N⁴. The treatment with alkali of 2-amino-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidinium bromide resulted in 2-amino-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidine, similar reaction of 2-acetamido-3-benzyl-5-R-7-R′-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidinium bromide gave a mesoionic product of a hydrogen elimination from the amide nitrogen atom.

4,4,4-Trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione (1) reacts with 5-aminopyrazole, 1,2,4-aminotriazole and 2-aminobenzimidazole derivatives, in the presence of triethylorthoformate under pressurized microwave irradiation to afford the corresponding trifluoromethyl derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, and pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles. Also, compound 1 couples readily with azole diazonium salts to give pyrazolo[5,1-c]triazine, benzimidazo[5,1-c]1,2,4-triazine, and triazolo[3,4-c]1,2,4-triazine derivatives incorporating trifluoromethyl group.     

A convenient new synthesis of fused 1,2,4-triazoles: the oxidation of heterocyclic hydrazones using copper dichloride

A series of 1,2,4-triazoles have been prepared by oxidative intramolecular cyclization of heterocyclic hydrazones with copper dichloride. General applicability of this simple transformation was confirmed by the synthesis of moderate to high yields of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazines, 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]phthalazines, and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines. A 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-e]purine-6,8(7H)-dione was obtained in a lower yield.

Preparation of styryl derivatives of 2-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazolo [1,5-a]pyridine 7-Methyl-2-phenyl- and 2-(3-chloro-4-methylphenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyridines react with anils of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of dimethyl-formamide and potassium hydroxide at 20–45° to yield the 2-phenyl-7-styryl- and 2-(2-chloro-stilben-4-yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazolo [1,5-a]pyridines respectively (‘Anil Synthesis’). Further, the Schiff's bases derived from o-chloroaniline and 2-(p-formyl-phenyl)- and 7-formyl-2-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazolo [1,5-a]pyridine yield, with methyl- and with p-tolyl-substituted heterocycles, the corresponding heterocyclic substituted styryl and stilbenyl derivatives.     

Naphthyridines. Part 3: First example of the polyfunctionally substituted 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-g][1,6]naphthyridines ring system

Treatment of 1,2,4-triazoles (1) with diethylmalonate in bromobenzene gave 1,2,4-triazolo-[1,5-a]pyridines 2. Chlorination of 2 using POCl₃/DMF (Vilsmeier reagent) led to the isolation of 7-chloro-6-formyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine derivative 4, which reacted with the stabilized ylid 5 to afford 6-ethoxycarbonylvinyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyridines 6. Azidation of 6 yielded the corresponding azido compound 7, (Scheme 2). Reduction of 7 with Na₂S₂O₄ gave the corresponding 7-amino compound 8, which cyclized in boiling DMF to give the novel 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-g][1,6]naphthyridines 9. On the other hand, reacting 7 with one equivalent of PPh₃ (aza-Wittig reaction) in CH₂Cl₂ gave 7-imino-phosphorane derivative 10, and subsequent cyclization in boiling DMF afforded the new 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-g][1,6]naphthyridine derivative 11 (Scheme 3). However, treatment of 10 with phenyl isothiocyanate in 1,2-dichlorobenzene at reflux temperature gave the new 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-g][1,6]naphthyridine derivative 14 (Scheme 4). Refluxing 6 with excess of a primary amines 15a,b in absolute. EtOH yielded the corresponding 7-alkyl-amino-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines 16a,b. These obtained amines 16a,b underwent intramolecular heterocyclization in boiling DMF to give the novel 9-alkyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-g][1,6]-naphthyridines 17a,b, in excellent yields (Scheme 5).     

Platinum(IV) complexes with purine analogs. Studies of molecular structure and antiproliferative activity in vitro

A series of tetrachloride platinum(IV) compounds of the general formulae PtCl₄L₂, where L = 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (tp) (1), 5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (dmtp) (2), 5,7-ditertbutyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (dbtp) (3) and 5-methyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-one (HmtpO) (4) have been prepared and characterized by thermal analysis, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR and IR spectroscopy. Spectral data suggest that the triazolopyrimidines act as a monodentate ligand via the nitrogen atom N(3). The preliminary assessments of antitumor properties of the four complexes were evaluated as in vitro antiproliferative activity against three cell lines: HL-60 human acute promyelocytic leukemia, SW707 rectal adenocarcinoma and HCV29T bladder cancer. PtCl₄(dbtp)₂ exhibits high cytotoxic activity against all human cell lines, whereas the other complexes are only moderately active.

The structure of compounds obtained was proved with the help of their uv and cmr spectra using model compounds prepared for this purpose.     

Synthesis and reactivity of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolines

The preparation of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolines 4a-d , 5 , 8a-d by cyclocondensation of 1a-c with carboxylic acids and carboxylic anhydrides, respectively, is described.

Cyclocondensation of 9 with carboxylic acids, carboxylic anhydrides, and nitrous acid, respectively, leads to the new anellated heterocycles bis-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a:1,5-c]quinazoline 13 and tetrazolo [1,5-a]-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline ( 14 ).     

2-aryl(hetaryl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles

2-(4-Methylphenyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazole and its previously unknown 2-(2-furyl)- and 2-(2-thienyl)-substituted analogs were synthesized by cyclization of benzimidazole-1,2-diamine with the corresponding carboxylic acid chlorides. The IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N NMR, and mass spectra of the cyclization products in combination with the results of quantum-chemical calculations of NMR chemical shifts showed radical differences of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles having no substituent on N⁴ from the recently reported low-melting products of oxidation of 2-amino-1-arylmethylideneaminobenzimidazoles with (diacetoxy-λ³-iodanyl)benzene, which, as we believe, were erroneously assigned analogous structure.

Alcoholysis of compound 5a or 5b afforded 7-chloro-4-ethoxycarbonylmethylene-4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline 6a or 7-chloro-4-ethoxycarbonylmethylene-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline 6b , respectively. Compounds 5a,b were found to exist as a syn and anti mixture of the enol form, while compounds 6a,b occurred as the enamine and methylene imine forms. The tautoraeric character and/or D-H exchange of the vinyl protons are described for compounds 5a,b and 6a,b .

IR, NMR and X-ray studies have shown that the only product of the reaction was the [1,5-a]-isomer as prototropic 3H- and 6H-tautomers.     

Tricyclic heteroaromatic systems. 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline

The parent 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline was prepared by a few-step reaction from ethyl N¹-(2-nitrophenyl)-N³-ethoxalyloxamidrazonate, which afforded the key intermediate diethyl 1-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dicarboxylate in satisfactory yield. The latter was cyclized, hydrolyzed, decarboxylated, reduced and dehydrogenated to yield the title compound.
