Functionalization of benzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine derivatives

Two routes to consecutive functionalization of 3-chloro-4-cyanobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine (1a) at positions 3 and 10 were developed. Oxidation of compound 1a with m-chloroperbenzoic acid in acetone leads to 3-chloro-4-cyano-10-oxobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine, while in acetic acid, the reaction gives 3-chloro-4-cyano-10-(3-chlorobenzoyloxy)-5-hydroxy-5,10-dihydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine. The reactions of 1a with some C-nucleophiles give -adducts at position 10. The reactions of N,N-dimethylamide acetals with chloride 1a leads to 4-cyano-3-dimethylaminobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridine.     

Tandem transformations of 10-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines resulted from the Michael addition of the nitrogen atom of the tetrahydropyridine fragment to the triple bond of activated alkynes

A reaction of 10-R-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines (R = CN, CONH₂, Me) with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, methyl and ethyl propiolates, and acetylacetylene has been studied. It was found that 1-acryloyl-10-cyanotetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines are the major products of the reaction of alkyl propiolates with 10-cyano-substituted naphthyridines, whereas the reaction with 10-carbamoyl-substituted naphthyridines gives a mixture of 1-acryloyl-substituted naphthyridines and hexahydrobenzo[b]pyrido[3,4,5-d,e][1,6]naphthyridines. The latter are the only products in the reaction of 10-carbamoyl-substituted naphthyridines with acetylacetylene. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and Spectroscopic Distinction of Benzonaphthonaphthyridine and Its Isomer

Distinction of benzo[h]naphtho[1,2-b][1,6]naphthyridine and its isomeric benzo[b]naphtho[1,2-h][1,6]naphthyridine is well explained on the basis of various spectroscopic techniques. Initially these isomers were prepared from their respective chloroquinolines via anilinoquinolines as potential intermediates. Spectroscopic dissimilarities of their precursors and intermediates have also been considered and compared with the final benzonaphthonaphthyridine isomers.

Synthesis of 2-aryl-6,6-dimethyl-8-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,2,4-4H-triazolo[3,2-b]benzothiazoles and their 3-aryl-[3,4-b] isomers

Summary Condensation of 3-aryl-5-thio-1,2,4-4H-trizoles (2a–i) and 2-bromodimedone (3) inTHF/benzene gave 2-aryl-6,6-dimethyl-8-oxo-5a-hydroxy-5,5a,6,7,8,8a-hexahydro-1,2,4-4H-triazolo[3,2-b]benzothiazoles (5a–i). These were also obtained by a one step synthesis on heating a mixture of dimedone,NBS, and2a–i in benzene containing a trace of benzoyl peroxide. Thermal dehydration of5a–i inPPA/anhydrous ethanol yielded the corresponding 2-aryl-6,6-dimethyl-8-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,2,4-4H-triazolo[3,2,b]benzothiazoles (6a–i). The formation of [3,4-b] fused isomers (4a–i) during the reaction of2 with3 was ruled out by an unambiguous synthesis of8a–i. Antibacterial screening of selected compounds againstEscherichia coli andStaphylococcus aureus was not encouraging.

Dasselbe Ergebnis wurde durch Erhitzen einer Mischung von Dimedon,NBS und2a–i in Benzol unter Zusatz einer Spur Benzoylperoxid in einer einstufigen Synthese erreicht. Thermische Dehydrierung von5a–i inPPA/Ethanol(abs.) ergab die entsprechenden 2-Aryl-6,6-dimethyl-8-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,2,4-4H-triazolo[3,2-b]benzothiazole (6a–i). Die Bildung [3,4-b]-kondensierter Isomere (4a–i) während der Reaktion von2 mit3 konnte durch eine eindeutige Synthese von8a–i ausgeschlossen werden. Antibakterielles Screening ausgewählter Verbindungen gegenüberEscherichia coli undStaphylococcus aureus brachte keine ermutigenden Resultate.

Interaction of 7-Chloro-9-methylthio-3-phenylpyrimido[5,4-f][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepine with Some Nucleophiles

The reactions of 7-chloro-9-methylthio-3-phenylpyrimido[5,4-f][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepine (1) with some nucleophiles have been studied. Substitution of the chlorine atom with hydrogen occurs with ammonia in DMSO to give 9-methylthio-3-phenylpyrimido[5,4-f][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepin-7(8H)-one. With a methanolic solution of ammonia the 7-methoxy derivative is formed. Reaction of compound 1 with an excess of sodium methoxide in methanol gave 6,7-dimethoxy-9-methylthio-3-phenyl-5,6-dihydropyrimido[5,4-f][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepine. The corresponding 7-substituted derivatives were obtained when compound 1 was heated with morpholine or 2-(dimethylamino)ethylamine. The azomethine bond of the thiadiazepine ring is reduced by sodium borohydride to give the corresponding 5,6-dihydro derivatives.
