Synthesis of 4-alkyl-, 4-aryl- and 4-arylamino-5-aminoisoquinolin-1-ones and identification of a new PARP-2 selective inhibitor

The considerable interest in substituted isoquinolin-1-ones related to 5-aminoisoquinolin-1-one (5-AIQ) as drugs points to a need for an efficient and straightforward synthesis of the 4,5-disubstituted bicycles. Bromination of 5-nitroisoquinolin-1-one gave 4-bromo-5-nitroisoquinolin-1-one but neither this nor 5-amino-4-bromoisoquinolin-1-one would participate in Pd-catalysed couplings. Protection of the lactam as 1-methoxy- and 1-benzyloxy-4-bromo-5-nitroisoquinolines, however, permitted Stille, Suzuki and Buchwald-Hartwig couplings to take place in high yields, insensitive to electronic demands and severe steric bulk in the arylboronic acids. Lithiation of 4-bromo-1-methoxy-5-nitroisoquinoline and quench with iodomethane gave 1-methoxy-4-methyl-5-nitroisoquinoline in low yield. Demethylation of the 1-methoxy-4-substituted-5-nitroisoquinolines with hydrogen bromide gave 4-substituted-5-nitroisoquinolin-1-ones, whereas hydrogenolytic debenzylation was achieved with simultaneous reduction of the 5-nitro group. 5-Amino-4-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)isoquinolin-1-one was identified as a new potent and selective inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-2 (PARP-2).     

Heterocyclizations of 5-methylpyrazol-3-amine with unsaturated arylaliphatic carboxylic acid derivatives

Cyclocondensation of 5-methylpyrazol-3-amine with methyl cinnamate and arylmethylidenemalonic acids in DMF and methanol leads to the formation of 7-aryl-2-methyl-6,7-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidin-5(4H)-ones. Arylmethylidenemalonic acids react with the title amine at a ratio of 1:2 in nitrobenzene to give 4-aryl-3,5-dimethyl-1,7-dihydrodipyrazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-e]pyridines. Heterocyclizations of 5-methylpyrazol-3-amine with 5-arylmethylidene-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones or their precursors, para-substituted benzaldehydes and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione (Meldrum’s acid) in all solvents (methanol, DMF, and nitrobenzene) give the corresponding 4-aryl-3-methyl-2,4,5,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6-ones. The structure of 3-methyl-4-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,4,5,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6-one was proved by X-ray analysis.

Synthesis of 4H-pyrazolo- and 4H-pyrrolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives

5-Methyl- and 6-methyl-2-phenyl-2H-indazole-4,7-diones were condensed with 2-aminobenzenethiol or 6-substituted-3-aminopyridine-2(1H)thiones 4 to produce a new type of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-pyrazolophenothiazin-4-ones or 8-substituted-7-aza-5-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-pyrazolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives. From 6-bromo-2,5-dimethyl-1,3-diphenyl-2H-isoindole-4,7-dione and 4 8-substituted-7-aza-2,5-dimethyl-1,3-diphenyl-4H-pyrrolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives were also prepared.     

Formation of carbon-carbon single bonds from isocyanates and cyclic pentaoxyphosphoranes—VI : Synthesis of 4-oxazolones and 4-thiazolones,and a new type of chapman rearrangement

The reaction of 4,5-dimethyl-2,2,2-trimethoxy-2,2-dihydro-1,3,2-dioxaphospholene with carbomethoxy, carbopropoxy and N,N-diphenylcarbamyl isocyanates yields, respectively, 2-methoxy-, 2-propoxy- and 2- diphenylamino-5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-oxazolin-4-one. The reaction with carbophenoxy isocyanate gives two products in a proportion which depends on experimental conditions: 2-phenoxy-5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-oxalin-4-one (1:1 stoichiometry) and 1,3-dicarbophenoxy-5-acetyl-5-methyl-hydantoin (1:2 stoichiometry). The 2-substituted 4- oxazolones are hydrolyzed to 5-acetyl-5-methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dione. The alkyl group of the 2-alkoxy-4-oxazolones migrates to the adjacent nitrogen to give 3-alkyl-5-acetyl-5-methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-diones. The dioxaphospholene reacts with 2-substituted 2-thiazolin-4,5-diones to give 2-substituted 5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-thiazolin-4-ones, including rhodanine derivatives.     

Asymmetric radical additions using chiral 1,3-dioxolane-4-ones

Moderate facial selectivities are observed in additions of alkyl radicals to the chiral (c,d) olefin (2S)-2-tert-butyl-5-ethoxycarbonylmethylene-1,3-dioxolane-4-one 1. The following hydrogen abstraction from tributylstannane proceeds with excellent asymmetric stereocontrol, leading to two of four possible diastereoisomers with high diastereomeric excesses. Additions of chiral radicals obtained from (2R,5R)-5-alkyl-5-bromo-1,3-dioxolane-4-ones to ethyl acrylate show high asymmetric 1,3-induction.

Sodium acetate catalyzed multicomponent reaction of aryl aldehydes, 2-pyrazolin-5-ones, and malononitrile or alkyl cyanoacetates in alcohols results in the formation of substituted 3-(5-hydroxy-3-methylpyrazol-4-yl)-3-arylpropionitriles in 80–99% yields. The developed efficient catalytic approach to the substituted 3-(5-hydroxy-3-methylpyrazol-4-yl)-3-arylpropionitriles – the promising compounds for human cardiovascular diseases therapy and different biomedical applications – is beneficial from the viewpoint of diversity-oriented large-scale processes and represents facile, efficient and environmentally benign synthetic concept for multicomponent reactions strategy.     

Facile syntheses of 2,2-dimethyl-6-(2-oxoalkyl)-1,3-dioxin-4-ones and the corresponding 6-substituted 4-hydroxy-2-pyrones

A variety of 2,2-dimethyl-6-(2-oxoalkyl)-1,3-dioxin-4-ones 5a-l and the corresponding 6-substituted 4-hydroxy-2-pyrones 3a-l were prepared in high yields under mild reaction conditions by the reaction of 2,2,6-trimethyl-1,3-dioxin-4-one 4 with 1-acylbenzotriazoles 9 in the presence of LDA followed by thermal cyclization of 5a-l to 3a-l. Synthesis of novel 6-(1-benzoylalkyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones 12a-c was achieved by alkylation of dioxinone 5a and their subsequent cyclization gave 5-alkyl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrones 13a-c.

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted 1-amino-4-methyl-1-penten-3-ones and 1-amino-4,4-dimethyl-1-penten-3-ones occurred in moderate to fair yield only in the case of aromatic N-substitution to give N,N-disubstituted 6-alkyl-4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones, which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to afford in good yield N,N-disubstituted 6-alkyl-4-amino-3-chloro-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution, cyclo-addition led directly to 6-alkyl-4-dialkylamino-3-chloro-2H-pyran-2-ones only for N,N-disubstituted 1-amino-4,4-dimethyl-1-penten-3-ones. The reaction between 1-dimethylamino-4-methyl-1-penten-3-one and dichloroketene gave 3-chloro-4-dimethylamino-3,6-dihydro-6-isopropylidene-2H-pyran-2-one in low yield.

Treatment of arylmethylideneamines with 5-chloropentanoyl chloride in benzene in the presence of 2,6-lutidine afforded novel trans-4-aryl-3-(3-chloropropyl)azetidin-2-ones in good yields. The latter 3-(3-chloropropyl)-β-lactams were transformed selectively into trans-methyl 1-alkyl-2-arylpiperidine-3-carboxylates in high yields and purity upon subsequent treatment with hydrogen chloride in methanol and triethylamine in dichloromethane. These trans-1-alkyl-2-arylpiperidine-3-carboxylates were easily converted into either their cis-isomers upon treatment with hydrazine monohydrate in methanol, or into the corresponding piperidine-1,3-dicarboxylates by reaction with alkyl chloroformates in benzene. Finally, 3-(3-chloropropyl)-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-4-phenylazetidin-2-one was transformed into the corresponding trans-1-tert-butoxycarbonyl-3-(4-methoxybenzylcarbamoyl)piperidine via a three-step sequence in a good overall yield.

Specific features of the reactions of quinazoline and its 4-hydroxy and 4-chloro substituted derivatives with C-nucleophiles

Reactions of quinazoline 1 with indole, pyrogallol and 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one in the presence of acid led to C-4 adducts 2, 3 and 5.
