The structure of some methyl and benzyl malonate derivatives of pyrimidine

Reaction of 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine with sodium dibenzylmalonate in p-dioxane gave 4,6-dichloro-2-(dibenzylmalonyl)pyrimidine, while reaction of 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine with sodium dimethylmalonate yielded both 4,6-dichloro-2-(dimethylmalonyl)pyrimidine and 2,2-bis-(4,6-dichloropyrimidin-2-yl)dimethylmalonate. Structural studies using nmr, ir and uv spectroscopy indicate that for the former two compounds in basic solvent, an equilibrium exists between the keto forms and resonance-stabilized enolate ions.

It was shown using IR spectroscopy and ESR spectroscopy that UV irradiation of 2-azido-4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine isolated in solid argon resulted in triplet 4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-tri-azinyl-2-nitrene (D = 1.384 cm^?1, E = 0.004 cm^?1), whose further photochemical transformation included the consecutive formation of 3-didehydro-1,2,4,6-tetraazepine, 2-chloro-1-diazochloromethyl-2-isocyanocarboimide, and presumably triplet 2-chloro-1-chloromethyl-idene-2-isocyanocarboimide and isocyanodichloroacetonitrile.

1,3-Benzenediamine,N,N′-bis(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl) and 1,3,5-Triazine,2,2′-[2-methyl-1,3-phenylenebis(oxy)] bis(4,6-dichloro) were synthesized as host molecules. The inclusion compound of 1,3-Benzenediamine,N,N′-bis(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl) crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system in space group C2/c. The host molecule occupies the space group 2-fold special position and packed in the crystal lattice in such a manner as to leave channels running along the c axis of a rectangular cross-section. It crystallizes with two molecules of acetone that are hydrogen bonded to the amino nitrogen atoms. Molecules of 1,3,5-Triazine,2,2′-[2-methyl-1,3-phenylene bis(oxy)]bis(4,6-dichloro) are packed in the crystal in such a manner as to leave channels of a trapezoid cross-section that are running along the a axis. Guest molecules such as metanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate can be used to fill the channels. The crystal structures of two inclusion compounds are described.     

Chlorination of 1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4,6(5H,7H)dione (3,7-dideazaxanthine) and its 5-methyl derivative

The chlorination of 1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4,6(5H, 7H)dione (3,7-dideazaxanthine) ( 2 ) and 5-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c] pyridin4,6(5H,7H)dione (1 -methyl-3,7-dideazaxanthine) ( 3 ) with phenylphosphonic dichloride has yielded 4,6-dichloro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine (2,6-dichloro-3,7-dideazapurine) ( 1 ). A mechanism for the demethylation of the 5-methyl derivative under these conditions is proposed. Ammonolysis of 4,6-dichloro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c] pyridine was unsuccessful while catalytic reduction of this dichloro derivative produced 1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]-pyridine ( 4 ).     

Synthesis of amino-substituted 1,3-bis(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)benzenes 2.* 2-amino and 2,4-diamino derivatives

Oxidation of one of the amino groups of 2-bromo-4,6-dichloro-1,3-phenylenediamine to the nitroso group followed by its conversion into thetert-butyl-NNO-azoxy group afforded a derivative ofm-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)aniline,viz., 2-bromo-3-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxyl)-4,6-dichloroaniline. Analogously, the second amino group was converted into thetert-butyl-NNO-azoxy group to form a derivative of 1,3-bis(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)benzene,viz., 3-bromo-2,4-bis(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxyl)-1,5-dichlorobenzene The reaction of the latter with ammonia yielded 2-amino- and 2,4-diamino-substituted 1,3-bis-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxyl)benzenes.

Derivatives Of ditraizinylamine and tritriazinylamine

2-Arylamino-4,6-dichloro-s-triazine reacts with cyanuric chloride in the presence of alkali to yield N,N-bis(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-yl)-arylamine. In like manner, 2-substituted o-chloro-, p-chloro-, o-nitro- and p-carbomethoxyphenylamino-4,6-dimethoxy-s-triazines react with cyanuric chloride to yield the corresponding 4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-yl-4′,6′-dimethoxy-s-triazin-2′-ylaryl-amine, while anilino-, p-toluidino, o- and p-methoxyphenylamino and o-carbomethoxyphenylamino derivatives did not. The reaction of cyanuric chloride with 2,4-dichloro-6-ethylamino-s-triazine in the presence of alkali yields the condensation product of the ditriazinylamine type and the reaction of cyanuric chloride with ammonia yields N,N-bis(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-yl)- or tris(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-yl)amine.

2-R-amino-4,6-bis (trinitromethyl)-1,3,5-triazines have been synthesized, and their structures have been established. Dynamic¹³C NMR spectroscopy has been used to measure the rotational barriers of the tertbutylamino group around the C₍₂₎-NHBu-t bond in 2-(tert-butylamino)-4,6-dichloro-1, 3, 5-triazine and 2-(tertbutylamino)-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine. X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the structure of 2-(tertbutylamino)-4,6-bis (trinitromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine. From the results obtained in this work it has been concluded that the bond between the NHBu-t group and the triazine ring has a partial double-bond character.N. D.

Reactions of methyl pyrazole-4-carboxylates 4b-d with N-chlorosuccinimide under heating conditions without a solvent gave methyl 3,5-dichloro-1-methylpyrazole-4-carboxylate 4a in good yields. The reaction of 4a with sodium hydrosulfide led to a nucleophilic substitution on the 5-position regioselectively to afford methyl 3-chloro-1-methyl-5-mercaptopyrazole-4-carboxylate 6a, which was followed by oxidative chlorination and amination to obtain 3-chloro-1-methyl-5-sulfamoylpyrazole-4-carboxylate 2a. Finally, the reaction of 2a with phenyl 4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl carbamate 7 provided methyl 3-chloro-5-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-ylcarbamoylsulfamoyl)-1-methylpyrazole-4-carboxylate (halosulfuron-methyl) 1a promising herbicide in com.     

Synthesis of some amino-substituted furanopyrimidines and styrylpyrimidines

5-p-Chlorophenyl-6,6-dimethyl-5,6-dihydro-3H-furano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-one is readily converted to 4,6-dichloro-5-β-β-dimethyl-α- (p-chlorostyryl)pyrimidine by warming in phosphorus oxychloride and acetic acid, behavior which is in strong contrast to that of the analogous 5-phenyl derivative. The reaction provides a convenient source of 4-amino-6-chloro-5β,β-dimethyl-α- (p-chlorostyryl)pyrimidines and 4,6-diamino-5-β,β-dimethyl-α- (p-chlorostyryl)pyrimidines, compounds of potential biological interest.     

Synthesis, structure, and antibacterial activity of aminobenzofuroxan and aminobenzofurazan

The amination of 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofuroxan and 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofurazan with dibenzylamine followed the aromatic nucleophilic substitution pattern (S_NAr) and gave products of replacement of both chlorine atoms in the six-membered ring with elimination of hydrogen chloride. Regardless of the reactant ratio, 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofuroxan was converted into 4,6-bis(dibenzylamino)-5,7-dinitrobenzofuroxan, whereas 4,6-dichloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofurazan under analogous conditions gave rise to unusual bisammonium derivative which lost proton from the amino group on C⁴ and benzyl group from the amino group on C⁶; as a result, the corresponding diamine with secondary and tertiary nitrogen atoms was obtained. The structure of the isolated compounds was determined by IR and NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray analysis; their thermal stability was studied by simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry.     

Potential DNA bis-intercalating agents. Bridged bis-(6-chloropurines) and related compounds

Two bis-(6-chloropurines) bridged by conformationally restricted tethers were synthesized as potential DNA bis-intercalating agents. Reduction of 4,6-dichloro-5-nitropyrimidine ( 1 ) afforded 5-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine ( 2 ) which was then used as the starting material. Reaction of 2 with 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane ( 3 ) and bis-(4-aminophenyl) ether ( 4 ) yielded bis-[4-(N-5-amino-4-chloro-6-pyrimidyl)aminophenyl]methane ( 5 ) and bis-[4-(N-5-amino-4-chloro-6-pyrimidyl)aminophenyl] ether ( 6 ), respectively. Acid-catalyzed condensation of the above pyrimidines, 5 and 6 , with triethyl orthoformate in N,N-dimethylacetamide gave bis-[4-(6-chloro-9-purinyl)phenyl]methane ( 7 ) and bis-[4-(6-chloro-9-purinyl)phenyl] ether ( 8 ).
