The syntheses of 3-amino-4-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 8a ) and its 2′-deoxy analog 8b as well as 5-amino-2-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-3-one ( 12 ) have been accomplished. Compounds 8a and 8b were synthesized via glycosylation of 3-bromo-5-nitro-1,2,4-triazole which was followed by replacement in three steps of the 3-bromo function to yield 3-nitro-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 4a ) and its 2′-deoxy analog 4b . Compounds 4a and 4b were methylated at N², hydrogenated and deblocked to give 3-amino-4-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 8a ) and the 2′-deoxy analog 8b . Compound 12 was synthesized by glycosylation of 3-amino-1-methyl-1,2,4-triazolin-5(2H)-one ( 10 ). The structures of 8b and 12 were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Reaction of 2,6-dibutylaminohepta-2,5-dien-4-one with malononitrile

Malononitrile reacted with the title compound to give 6-amino-5-cyano-2-(3,3-dicyano-2-methylallylidene-4-methyl-2H-pyran (3). Treatment of 3 with hot 80% sulfuric acid yielded 4,7-dimethyl-56-hydroxy-2(1H)quinolone. With concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide, 3 gave 5-amino-3,6-dicyano-4,7-dimethyl-2(1H)quinolone and 5-amino-6-carbamoyl-3-cyano-4,7-dimethyl-2(1H)quinolone. The reaction of 3 with hydrochloric in acetic acid gave a mixture of 6-amino-3,7-dicyano-2,8-dimethyl-4-quinolizone and 3-cyano-4-methyl-6-(3,3-dicyano-2-methylallyl)-2-pyrone. Compound 3 also reacted with methylamine, butylamine and piperidine to give 8-amino-5-cyano-4-methyl-2-pyridone, 6-bulylamino-5-cyano-4-methyl-2-pyridone and 5-eyano-4-methyl-6-piperidino-2-pyridone respectively.

The synthesis of ten new substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl-4(3H)-quinazolinones 8–11, 13, 17 , and 20–23 is reported. Compounds 8–11 were prepared by condensation of 5-fluoro-2-methyl-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one (3) and 5-substituted 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 4–7.

The condensation of 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophcnone with 3 to give 5-chloro-2-(2-methyl-5-phthalimidomethylpyrro]-1-yl)benzophenone ( 4 ), the treatment of which with hydrazine hydrate afforded 8-chloro-1-methyl-4H-pyrrolo[1,2-α] [1,4]benzodiazepine ( 5 ).     

Synthesis of 5(and 6)-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1h-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinones

The reaction of 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (I) with acetoacetic ester at room temperature under acid catalysis gives ethyl 3-(2-amino-5-nitrophenylamino)crotonate (II), which is readily cyclized to 7-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (III) on heating with alkaline agents. The reaction of I with acetoacetic ester in refluxing xylene gives isomeric 8-nitro-4-methyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (IVa) or 8-nitro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzo-2-diazepinone (IVb), which are readily interconverted. The synthesis of IV is complicated by the side formation of 5-nitro-2-methylbenzimidazole (V) and thermal rearrangement of IVa and IVb to 5-nitro-1-isopropenylbenzimidazolone (VI). 6-Nitro-1-isopropenylbenzimidazolone (VII) is similarly obtained on heating III.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 696–699, May, 1972.     

Fused s-triazino heterocycles. XV. 13H-4,6,7,13a,13c-pentaazabenzo[hi]chrysene, 13H-4,7,13a,13c-tetraazabenzo[hi]chrysene,and 7H-3,7,10,10b-tetraazacyclohepta[de]naphthalene,three new ring systems

The reaction of N-cyano-N′-(6-amino-2-pyridyl)acetamidine ( 5a ) and homophthalic anhydride followed by ring closure of the 2-[2-(carboxymethyl)phenyl]-5-methyl-1,3,4,6,9b-pentaazaphenalene intermediate ( 4a ) gave 5-methyl-13-oxo-13H-4,6,7,13a,13c-pentaazabenzo[hi]chrysene ( 8a ). An analogous series starting with 3-N-(6-amino-2-pyridyl)amino-2-cyano-2-butenenitrile ( 5b ) in place of 5a gave in two steps 5-methyl-13-oxo-13-H-4,7,13a,13c-tetraazabenzo[hi]chrysene-6-carbonitrile ( 8b ). Elemental analysis, ir and pmr spectra of 8a , 8b and several new model compounds aided in confirming the structures of 8a and 8b. The synthesis of one of these model compounds for 5b and phenylacetic anhydride led surprisingly to 2-methyl-9-phenyl-7H-3,7,-10,10b-tetraazacyclohepta[de]naphthalene ( 10 ) in addition to the expected 2-benzyl-4-cyano-5-methyl-1,3,-6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 7b ).     

Synthesis of 8-amino-4-methylthio-6-methyl-2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2,6-dihydro-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaazaacenaphthylene and an unusual reductive ring-opening of the 1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaazaacenaphthylene ring system

The tricyclic nucleoside 8-amino-4-methylthio-6-methyl-2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaazaacenaphthylene ( 3 ) was synthesized from 3-cyano-4,6-bis(methylthio)-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine ( 1 ). Attempts to synthesize 8-amino-6-methyl-2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-2,6-dihydro-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaazaacenaphthylene ( 5 ) ([an aza analog of 6-amino-4-methyl-8-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,3,4,5,8-pentaazaacenaphthylene (TCN)], which is a potent antitumor agent), by the treatment of 3 with Raney nickel did not afford the desired aza analog of TCN. Instead, it was established that a reductive cleavage of the pyridazine moiety of 3 had occurred to give 4-methylamino-6-methylthio-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-3-carboxamidine ( 6 ). Assuming that solubility was a problem in the reductive step, the isopropylidene derivative of 3 , 8-amino-6-methyl-4-methylthio-2-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2,6-dihydro-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaazaacenaphthylene ( 8 ), was treated with Raney nickel, only to observe that a similar reductive ring cleavage of 8 had occurred to afford 4-methylamino-6-methylthio-1-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-3-carboxamidine ( 10 ) and 4-methylamino-1-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-3-carboxamidine ( 11 ). Structural assignments for all products were established by physico-chemical procedures.     

Enantioselective synthesis of both enantiomers of the neuroexcitant 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-tert-butylisoxazol-4-yl) propanoic acid (ATPA)

The preparation of both enantiomers of 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-tert-butylisoxazol-4-yl) propanoic acid (ATPA), 1, an analogue of the neuroexcitant 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-yl) propanoic acid (AMPA) is described. The enantiomerically pure glycine derivative tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-(tert-butyl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-1-imidazolidinecarboxylate (BOC-BMI) was coupled with 4-bromomethyl-2-methoxymethyl-5-tert-butylisoxazolin-3-one 6 to give the intermediates (2R,5R)-8 and (2S,5S)-8. These alkylated products were hydrolyzed under mild conditions to give enantiopure (R)-1 and (S)-1 with e.e.'s in excess of 99% in 33% overall yield.     

Piperidine-mediated synthesis of thiazolyl chalcones and their derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents

A series of new thiazolyl chalcones, 1-[2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl]-3-aryl-prop-2-en-1-one were prepared by piperidine mediated Claisen-Schmidt condensation of thiazolyl ketone with aromatic aldehyde. These chalcones on cyclisation gave 2-amino-6-(2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-4-aryl-4H-pyridine-3-carbonitrile and 2-amino-6-(2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-4-aryl-4H-pyran-3-carbonitrile. The result showed that the compounds exhibited marked potency as antimicrobial agents.

Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes with HAMAH have been isolated as four-coordinate complexes, the fourth coordination site being taken by imidazole, and have been structurally characterized. A Cu(II) complex involving HAMAO has been isolated as a highly insoluble polymeric species. Hydroxo bridging between the metal centres is indicated.

Studies on Reactions of 2-Amino-5-Heterocyclyl-1,3,4- -Thia/Oxadiazole with Acylisothiocyanates

It is well known that the addition of acyl isothiocyanate with amine formed 1,3-disubstituted thiourea which possess broad spectrum biological activities, Up till now, the addition of 5-heterocyclyl-2-amino-1,3,4-thia/oxadiazole with acylisothicyanate has not been reported. We wish to describe this reaction in this paper. When the new 2-amino-5-(l-p-chlorophenyl-5-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (Ⅰ) was reacted with acylisothio-cyanates (Ⅱ), not all the compounds were expected acylthiourea (Ⅲ)^[1,2], some of them were acid amide (Ⅳ). The formation of the products was determined by the substituents of the acylisothiocyanate. In order to investigate the reaction, we synthesized 2-amino-5-aryl-1,3,4-thio/oxadiazole (Ⅴa,b), and then reacted with 1-p-chlorophenyl-5-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-formyl-isothiocyanate (Ⅵ). As it was anticipated, the products only were N-(5-aryl-1,3,4-thia/oxadiazol-2-yl)-N'-(1-p-chlorophenyl-5-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-formyl) thiourea (Ⅶa,b) (Scheme).     

Synthesis and antimicrobial testing of 2-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone

Synthesis of 2-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 5 ) from 2-amino-6-methyl-4-(3H)-pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 2 ) was accomplished by selenium dioxide oxidation of 2 to the aldehyde 4 followed by sodium borohydride reduction. Compound 2 was available in four steps from 5-aminouracil or in two steps from 5-nitroisocytosine ( 3a ). Catalytic reduction of 4 or 5 gave a mixture of 2-amino-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 6a ) and the 6-hydroxymethyl compound 6b . These compounds showed only weak inhibitory activity in the coupled reactions catalyzed by 7,8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin pyrophosphokinase and 7,8-dihydropteroate synthetase from E. Coli. No significant antibacterial activity was observed.     

3-acyl-1,5-benzodiazepines in the reactions of 5,5-dimethyl-2-formylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with certain 1,2-diaminobenzenes

Reaction of 5,5-dimethyl-2-formylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with 4-methyl-, 4-benzoyl-, and 4-nitro-1,2-diaminobenzenes gave the corresponding 2-(2-amino-4-methylphenylaminomethylene)-, 2-(2-amino-5-benzoylphenylaminomethylene)-, and 2-(2-amino-5-nitrophenylaminomethylene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-diones. When treated with hydrochloric acid, they cyclize to 7-methyl-, 8-benzoyl-, and 8-nitro-3,3-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinon hydrochlorides. Under hydrolytic conditions the salts of 3,3,7-trimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinone and 3,3-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinone undergo the C₁₁−N₁₀ bond cleavage to give N-(2-aminophenyl)- and N-(2-amino-5-methylphenyl)-substituted 3-amino-2-formyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-enones. Ring opening of the hydrochlorides of 8-benzoyl-, and 3,3-dimethyl-8-nitro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinones occurs at the C−N₅ bond and gives the starting enamines.

Syntheses of substituted-oxazolo-1,3,4-thiadiazoles, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles,and 1,2,4-triazoles

Starting from readily available methyl 5-methyloxazole-4-carboxylate ( 1 ) and 4-methyl-5-oxazolylcar-boxylic acid hydrazide ( 11 ) the title compounds were prepared. The reaction of compound 1 with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding hydrazide 2 . The reaction of compound 2 with formic acid yielded 1-formyl-2-(5-methyloxazole-4-carboxyl)hydrazine ( 3 ). Refluxing of the latter with phosphorus pentasulfide in xylene gave compound 5 in 62% yield. The reaction of compound 3 with phosphorus pentoxide afforded compound 4 . Starting from hydrazide 11 , compounds 13 and 14 were prepared similarly. Reaction of compound 2 with substituted isothiocyanate yielded compound 9 which was cyclized in basic medium to 4-alkyl-5-(5-methyl-4-oxazolyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione ( 10 ). The isomer 19 was prepared similarly. Methylation and subsequent oxidation of compound 19 gave compound 21 . Reaction of the acid 7 with thiosemicarbazide in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride gave 2-amino-5-(5-methyl-4-oxazolyl)1,3,4-thiadiazole ( 8 ). 2-Amino-5-(4-methyl-5-oxazolyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole ( 17 ) was prepared from acyl chloride 15 by the usual method.     

Synthesis of imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepine-8-one

We have developed a method for synthesis of 1-methyl-4,5,7, 8-tetrahydro-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepin-8-one. We have shown that in intramolecular cyclization of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)- or N-(2-chloroethyl)amides of 1-methyl-4-aminoimidazolyl-5-carboxylic acids it is not the corresponding tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepin-8-ones which are formed but rather the isomeric 4-amino-5-(oxazolin-2-yl)imidazoles.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1203–1206, September, 1993.     

Synthesis of the lipophilic antifolate piritrexim via a palladium(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction

[reaction: see text] A regiospecific and convergent route the lipophilic antifolate piritrexim (PTX) is described in which a key step is a Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between 2-amino-3-cyano-4-methyl-5-bromopyridine and 2,5-dimethoxybenzylzinc chloride to form 2-amino-4-methyl-5-(2,5-dimethoxybenzyl)nicotinonitrile. To complete the synthesis, the amino group is replaced by a more reactive bromine atom via nonaqueous diazotization with tert-butyl nitrite, and the resultant bromo nitrile is cyclized with guanidine.
