Synthesis of pyrido[3,2-e]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazines from pyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazine derivatives

In carrying on our interest in heteropolycyclic structures with biological activities, we projected the preparation of compounds containing the pyrido[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazine or pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]triazepine systems. The established synthetic approach for the preparation of latter system led to the triazine derivatives 5a-f while a new bicyclic triazepine structure 6 is accomplished with difficulty. In expanding the pyridotriazine structure, we obtained derivatives of a new tricyclic structure, 5-substituted-6a-ethyloxycarbonyl-5,6,6a,7-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-e]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-9(8H)-ones 8 in which the triazine ring is fused with a pyrrole nucleus.

A new facile route for synthesis of 3-(aryl)-8,9-diphenylfuro[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo pyrimidines derivative from the same starting material, 2-amino-4,5-diphenylfuran-3-carbonitrile, has been developed through heterocyclization of the corresponding arylidene-hydrazono-5,6-diphenylfuro[2,3-d]pyrimidine and N-(arylmethylene)-4-imino-5,6-diphenylfuro[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-amine under refluxing condition with acetic anhydride followed by air oxidation. The products were obtained in good yield with an easy workup along with the purification of products by a nonchromatographic method. This general synthetic procedure can be extended to the preparation of a wide range of isomeric triazoles using 2-amino 3-carbonitrile bifunctional derivatives.

The 1,4-cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted (E)-4-aminomethylene-3,4-dihydro[1]benzothiepin-5(2H)-ones I occurred only in the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution to give in good yield 4-dialkylamino-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro[1]benzothiepino[4,5-e][1,2]oxathiin 2,2-dioxides, which are derivatives of the new heterocyclic system [1]benzothiepino[4,5-e][1,2]oxathiin.
