Pyridinethiones—V : Spectroscopic investigation and electronic structure of 3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones, -thiones and -selones

The 3-formyl-2(1$\text{H}$)-pyridone, -thione and -selone systems have been investigated by UV photoelectron, UV-visible, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. It is demonstrated that the electronic build-up of these systems as derived from the spectroscopic data may be correlated with their chemical behaviour through application of the perturbation model for chemical reactivity.     

Pyridinethiones. VIII. The aldol and wittig condensations of 3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones, -thiones and -selones. Preparation of new cyanopyridones

Condensations of 1-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridones, -thiones and -selones with methyl ketones such as acetophenone give the corresponding chalcones in high yields. Geometry at the vinyl hydrogens is E. These chalcones can be cyclized with ethyl cyanoacetate in the presence of ammonium acetate to form new 3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridones. An effective “one-pot” preparation is worked out and an intermediate from the cyclization reaction is isolated. Via the Wittig reaction it is possible to prepare condensation products from 1-substituted-3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones and -selones with mainly Z geometry at the vinyl hydrogens.     

Pyridinethiones. XI. Diastereoselective aldol condensations with 2(1H)-pyridones, 2(1H)-pyridinethiones,and the crystal structure of 3-(1-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxo-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propyl-1-isoprpyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione

Aldol condensation of 3-formyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones and the corresponding pyridones with ketones such as acetophenones in aqueous base yields 3-hydroxy-1-propanones in high yields. Reaction with propiophenone showed this reaction to be highly diastereoselective as only the erythro-isomer is formed at room temperature. This assignment was based on an X-ray crystallographic investigation of the compound given in the title. Aldol condensations of a number of related 3-acetyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones with benzaldehyde yielded the corresponding trans-vinyl ketones.     

Pyridinethiones—II : Preparation of condensed pyridines related to 3-formyl-2(1H,-pyridinethione

Some condensed pyridines, isothiazolo[4,5-b]pyridine, 2-oxo-2$\text{H}$-thiopyranyl[5,6-b]pyridines, and thieno[3,2-b]pyridines, have been prepared from 3-formyl-2(1$\text{H}$)-pyridinethione or the 1-substituted precursors for this compound.     

Photocycloaddition of Quinoxaline-2(1H)-thiones to Alkenes

A synthetically useful C? C bond formation involving the photochemical addition of quinoxaline-2(1H)-thiones to alkenes is described. Irradiation of the quinoxaline-2(1H)-thiones 1–4 in the presence of the alkenes 7 gave the 2-(2′-mercaptoalkyl)quinoxalines 8–11 in moderate-to-good yields via ring cleavage of an intermediate aminothietane with aromatization of the quinoxaline ring. The latter was formed by [2+2] photocycloaddition of the C?S bond of the quinoxaline-2(1H)-thione and the C?C bond of the alkene.

Data on methods for the production of 5,6-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-ones and 5,6-dihydropyridine-2(H)-thiones and their biological activity are reviewed.Omsk State University, Omsk, Russia. Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 147–167, February, 1999.     

Novel nucleophilic substitution of alkyl bromo-2(1H)-pyridones

Nucleophilic substitution of certain alkyl bromo-2(1H)-pyridones gave some unexpected products where the alkyl group is substituted and the ring bromine is replaced by hydrogen. The expected ring substituted product is also formed, but only as the minor product in most cases. Many reactions are cited with various nucleophiles, and a plausible mechanism is also presented.     

Diels-alder reaction of 2(1H)-pyridones acting as dienes

Diels-Alder reactions between N-phenylmaleimide, acting as the dienophile, and 2(1H)-pyridones having a methoxy or a chloro substituent, were carried out, under atmospheric and high pressure conditions, to give the corresponding isoquinuclidine derivatives. Stereoselectivity of the Diels-Alder reactions was studied using molecular orbital calculations.     

New dienamino esters and their cyclization to α-pyridones of nicotinic acid

New dienamino esters (3b–k) were obtained by addition of enamino esters (1b–g) to methyl and ethyl propiolate (2a–b). Z,E-Configuration and a transoid conformation were assigned on the basis of spectral data which indicate also noncoplanarity of phenyl groups whenever present. The corresponding adducts with acetylenedicarboxylic ester (18 and 19) have a cisoid conformation and it was possible to differentiate between thermodynamically and kinetically controlled products. Deuteration experiments showed the existence of a 1,5-proton transfer while comparative examination of a whole series of NMR spectra furnished evidence for a head to tail attachment. Attempts to trap the intermediate zwitterion 10 resulted in the formation of 15a–b corresponding to a cyclobutene intermediate. The reaction repiesents a new synthesis of the benzene nucleus and a practical method to obtain the methyltrimesic and 2,4,6-biphenyltricarboxylic acids. Additions of enamino esters to the triple bond are best interpreted as occurring through a common key intermediate, a zwitterion of type 5 or 10. The former collapses by proton transfer and the resulting imino-derivative 6 tautomerizes to 3. The latter cyclizes to a non-isolable cyclo-butene 12 which by opening of the ring produces the dipolar species 13 which further reacts with propiolic ester. By cyclization of the dienamino esters 3a–j but not of 18 and 19 in dipolar aprotic solvents at 160–190° the corresponding a-pyridones 4a–t were obtained in good yields.     

Reaction of 3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones with N-butyllithium

The reaction of 3-cyanopyridine-2(1 H)-thiones with BuLi in ether was studied. It was found that the metallation proceeds initially at the sulfur atom. The resulting lithium salts add a second equivalent of n-butyllithium at the CN group. The hydrolysis of the dilithium derivatives leads to 3 pentanoylpyridine-2(IH)-thiones.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 231–234, February, 1996.     

Cycloaddition of 2(1H)-pyridones having a methoxycarbonyl group to 1,3-butadiene derivatives

The cycloaddition of 4-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones to silyloxydienes gave isoquinolone derivatives in reasonable yields. Furthermore, the cycloaddition of 6-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones to 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene produced cycloadducts (isoquinolone and quinolone derivatives) and double cycloadducts (phenanthridone derivatives). The activation energies using Gaussian 98 with RHF/3-21G level of 4- and 6-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones coincided with the experimental facts.

Addition of Organolithium and Grignard Reagents to Pyrimidine-2(1H)-thione: Easy Access to 4-Substituted 3,4-Dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thiones

Organolithium and Grignard reagents are added to pyrimidine-2(1H)-thione, yielding 4-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thiones. Since the synthetic procedure can be performed on a multigram scale, and since pyrimidine-2(1H)-thione as well as the majority of organometallic reagents are readily available, the process described provides an easy access and complementary to other methods to 4-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thiones.     

Synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridones from azomethines and substituted dialkylmalonates

Chlorination of pyridones6 with sulfuryl chloride leads to compounds8–10.

Biradicals/zwitterions from thermolysis of enyne-isocyanates. Application to the synthesis of 2(1H)-pyridones, benzofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-1(2H)-ones, 2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-1-ones, and related compounds

Thermolysis of benzannulated enyne-isocyanates 13 and enyne-isocyanates 36 and 37 promoted the cycloaromatization reactions to generate in situ O,4-didehydro-2-hydroxyquinolines and O,4-didehydro-2-hydroxypyridines, respectively, as reactive intermediates. These cycloaromatized intermediates could be captured either as biradicals and/or as zwitterions depending on the nature of the substituent at the alkynyl terminus. The intermediate derived from cycloaromatization of 13a bearing a phenyl substituent could be regarded as biradical 14, which then abstracts hydrogen atoms from gamma-terpinene leading to 2(1H)-quinolinone 15. Alternatively, the same intermediate could also be regarded as zwitterion 14', which then undergoes an initial hydride abstraction from gamma-terpinene followed by protonation to produce 15. The presence of a 2-phenylethyl substituent in 13b and 37a or a 2-methylphenyl substituent in 37b also allowed the resulting intermediates to be captured intramolecularly either as biradicals or as zwitterions, producing 2(1H)-quinolinone 19, 2(1H)-pyridone 39, and benzopyranopyridine 43, respectively. On the other hand, with a 2-methoxyphenyl, a 2-(dimethylamino)phenyl, or a 3-methoxypropyl substituent, the chemical behavior of the cycloaromatized adduct could be best accounted for in terms of a zwitterionic intermediate leading to benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolin-6(5H)-one (20), 5,11-dihydro-11-methyl-6H-indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-one (25), benzofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-1(2H)-one 44, 2,5-dihydro-2,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-1-one 46, and related compounds. Interestingly, thermolysis of 37f bearing a 2-(methoxymethyl)phenyl substituent at the alkynyl terminus produced the unexpected benzopyranopyridine 56 as the major product in a process involving the cleavage of the bond between the methoxyl oxygen and the adjacent methylene carbon. The efficiency and selectivity of the cycloaromatization reaction could also be enhanced by the introduction of 1.1 to 10 equiv of dimethylphenylsilyl chloride to the reaction mixture to capture the resulting zwitterion.     

Synthesis and antioxidative properties of some 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)ones (-thiones)

3,4-Dihydropyrimidinones (-thiones) were prepared by ternary condensation of various aromatic aldehydes with ethyl acetoacetate and urea (thiourea) in the presence of trichloroacetic acid in ethanol.     

Synthesis of Substituted 1,3-Cyclohexadienes,Pyridine-2(1H)-thiones,and Thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 4(3H)-thiones by the Michael Reaction

Cyclopentylidene- and cyclohexylidene(cyano)acetamides reacted with malononitrile and cyano-(thioacetamide) according to the Michael pattern with exchange of the methylene components to give substituted 1-amino-2,6,6-tricyano-1,3-cyclohexadienes and thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-thiones. Condensation of cyclopentylidene- and cyclohexylidene(cyano)acetamide with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds afforded 4,6-di-methyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thione and morpholinium 4-methyl-6-oxo-3-cyano-1,6-dihydropyridine-2-thiolate which were converted into substituted 2-alkylsulfanylpyridines, thieno[2,3-b]pyridines, thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine, and 2H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]pyridine.     

Regioselective synthesis and properties of 3-cyano-6-thienylpyridine-2(1H)-thiones
