Thesynthesisof2-amino-5,5-dimethyl-3-cyano-4,5-dihydro-7H-furo[2,3-c]pyrananditspyrroleanalog was accomplished on the basis of 2,2-dimethyltetrahydro-4-pyranone. Their reaction with maleic anhydride, which leads to the formation of 3-amino-4-cyano-6,6-dimethyl-5,6-dihydro-8H-pyrano[c]-phthalic anhydride, was studied.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 316–318, March, 1991.     

Ammonium chloride-promoted four-component synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-one

A novel multicomponent synthesis of 5-aminooxazole starting from simple and readily available inputs is described. Thus, simply heating a methanol solution of an aldehyde 3, an amine 4, and an alpha-isocyanoacetamide 5 provided the 5-aminooxazole (1) in good to excellent yield. The reaction of 1 with alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl chloride 13 lead to the formation of pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-one (2) in a single operation. A triple domino sequence, acylation/IMDA/retro-Michael cycloreversion, is involved in this new scaffold-generating reaction. After the observation that ammonium chloride can significantly accelerate the oxazole formation in toluene, a one-pot four-component synthesis of 2 is developed.

Synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyridazines

We have prepared the pyrrolopyridazines 7a-f starting from the diazo compounds 4 . The synthesis involves a tandem condensation-aza-Wittig reaction or a combination of Wittig and aza-Wittig reactions as key steps. Reaction of pyridazine 7d with diazomethane results in C-methylation to yield 7g . Sodium borohydride reduces 7d to either the dihydropyridazine 12 or the hydroxylactam 13b depending of the reaction conditions.

Efficient domino strategy for synthesis of 3-substituted 1,5-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one derivatives

A series of 1,5-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one derivatives with 3-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl) groups were synthesized via a one-pot three-component reaction of 4-aminopyridin-2(1H)-ones, 2,2-dihydroxy-1-arylethan-1-ones, and 4-hydroxy-2H-pyran-2-ones in water. This strategy not only provides a valuable tool in the design and synthesis of new hydrogenated pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridines but also has the advantages of inexpensive starting materials, atom and step economy, environmental friendliness, good to excellent yields, and operational simplicity. A total of 14 examples were examined to show a broad substrate scope and high yields.

Syntheses of furo[3,4-c]coumarins and related furyl coumarin derivatives via intramolecular Wittig reactions

A new and general strategy for highly functional furo[3,4-c]coumarins and related furyl coumarin derivatives has been developed, which is based on an extraordinarily facile intramolecular Wittig reaction, starting from α,β-unsaturated ketones, tributylphosphine, and acyl chlorides. The phosphorus ylides were proposed to be the key intermediates for constructing the crucial furan ring, leading to a wide variety of substituted furyl coumarins in one step.
