Efficient synthesis of 5-substituted-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6-ones and 5-substituted-1,2,4-triazin-6-ones

Treatment of methyl α-(dimethylarninomethyleneamino)carboxylates 1 (from α-amino acids and dimethylformamide dimethylacetal) with hydrazine gives 5-substituted-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6-ones 2 , which are smoothly dehydrogenated to 5-substituted-1,2,4-triazin-6-ones 3 with potassium permanganate in acetone/acetic acid.     

The most stable tautomer of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazin-5-one and its structural geometry

With the purpose of finding predominant tautomer among five possible isomers of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazin-5-one and to refine some unreasonable structural parameters previously reported from X-ray diffraction measurements, a series of ab initio calculations were carried out. In agreement with previous results, our calculations show that 3-amino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one tautomer is the most stable one. Concerning the predominant tautomer, comparisons were made between structural parameters calculated and those obtained by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The structural geometry of the main skeleton of the molecule calculated by the B3LYP/6-311++G** density functional method are generally in good agreement with the experimental values, and those predicted by Pauling's method. Bond distance values calculated are in excellent agreement with the conventionally accepted bond lengths in similar molecules. All bond distances, bond angles, dihedral angles, dipole moments and rotational constants are presented.

Isomerization of 4-Amino-6-tert-butyl-3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one with Base

4-Amino-6-tert-butyl-3-methylthio-1, 2, 4-triazin-5 (4H)-one I, named as Metribuzin1, is an excellent selective herbicide. In the course of studying the reaction of I, we have found an unexpected reaction. We have attempted to prepare 6-tert-butyl- 4-methylamino-3-methylthio-1, 2, 4-triazin-5 (4H)-one II from I with methyl iodide in the presence of sodium hydroxide in aqueous methanol, surprisingly, instead of II the product III 4-amino-6-tert-butyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-methyl-3-thioxo-1, 2, 4-…

Domino synthesis of novel series of 4-substituted 5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazolidin-3-one derivatives

The efficient synthesis of 4-substituted 5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazolidin-3-one derivatives (4-substituted thiourazoles) via domino combination of thiophosgene, aliphatic or aromatic amines, and ethyl carbazate is presented.     

The Reactions of 6-(tert-Butyl)-3-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one with Carbonyl Compounds

The reaction of 6-(tert-butyl)-3-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one with acetone and benzaldehyde yields the corresponding hydrazones. In the presence of thionyl chloride the benzaldehyde hydrazone is converted to 3-(tert-butyl)-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazin-2(1H)-one and this can also be formed via the acylation of the starting hydrazinotriazinone using benzoyl chloride.     

Direct diastereoselective introduction of l-menthol residue into 1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one

The reaction of 3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (1) with l-menthol in the presence of aliphatic acid anhydrides results in (6S)- and (6R)-1-acyl-6-(l-menth-3-yl)-1,6-dyhydro-3-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones. The reaction is diastereoselective with predominant formation of (6S)-isomers. The reaction diastereoselectivity increases with enhancement of the steric hindrance in the vicinity of the reaction center of the azine.     

3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives

3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one and its monomethyl derivatives react with methyl vinyl ketone to give products of addition to the ring N₁ and N₄ atoms. The reaction with formaldehyde and N-methylolacetamide proceeds only at the N₁ atom. The keto derivatives of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one undergo the Schmidt reaction to give the corresponding acetamides. A number of compounds that include functional groups in the N₁-alkyl substituent of the 3-nitro ring were obtained by treatment of the bases of N₁-substituted 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazoles in aprotic media.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 552–558, April, 1981.     

Enantioselective diethylzinc addition to the exocyclic CN double bond of some 4-arylideneamino-3-mercapto-6-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazin-5-one derivatives

4-Arylideneamino-3-mercapto-6-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazin-5-ones 2a–f have been evaluated as substrates in the enantioselective diethylzinc addition reaction in the presence of (1S,2R)-N-alkyl-N-benzylnorephedrines 3a–d as chiral ligands. The utility of using a dual catalytic system (amino alcohol/halosilane) for the diethylzinc addition reaction has been also examined. The addition products 4-(1-arylpropyl)amino-3-mercapto-6-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazin-5-ones 4a–f were obtained in high yields and with enantiomeric excesses of up to 92%. The treatment of arylimines 2a–f with a diethylzinc reagent did not affect the hetero-ring opening although the CN double bond of the lateral chain did undergo an addition reaction to yield the C-ethylated products 4a–f. The reductive cleavage of the 1,2,4-triazinyl heterocyclic ring from addition products 4a–f led smoothly to the corresponding free primary amines 5a–f without a significant loss of enantiomeric purity.
