The products of the reaction of 2-aryl-5-R-5,6-dihydro-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones with aryl bromomethyl ketones are 2-aryl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones and aryl methyl ketones or 2,5-diaryl[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazoles and 3-phenyl-2-propenoic acid, depending on the structure of R. The reaction of 2-aryl-5-R-5,6-dihydro-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones with benzyl bromide yields 5-aryl-3-benzylthio-4H-1,2,4-triazoles and 3-aryl-2-propenoyl bromide. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 905–909, June, 2005.

Among which were different substituted [1,2,4]triazole analogues that were synthesized, in addition to various fused [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine derivatives, [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazines, and [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazines.

Partially hydrogenated 2-amino[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines as synthons for the preparation of polycondensed heterocycles: reaction with chlorocarboxylic acid chlorides

Partially hydrogenated 2-amino[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and 2-amino[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolines react with the chlorides of chloroacetic, 3-chloropropanoic, and 4-chlorobutanoic acids at 0–5 °C to give amides through acylation of the 2-amino group. Heating the corresponding 3-chloropropanoyl derivatives at 80–90 °C in DMF leads to selective intramolecular alkylation at N-3 to form the chlorides of partially hydrogenated [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:4,3-a′]dipyrimidin-5-ones and pyrimido[2′,1′:3,4][1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-12-ones. It may be more convenient to prepare such compounds through one-pot processes. Some reactions of the synthesized chlorides of polycondensed heterocycles have been studied. Conditions have been found to effect the selective synthesis of free bases, oxidative aromatization or hydrolysis of the dihydropyrimidine cycle, and the selective hydrolytic cleavage or elimination of the pyrimidone ring. Some of the resulting compounds represent new mesoionic heterocycles.

A synthesis of 6-functionalized 4,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

6-Unsubstituted 7-R-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines (R = H or Me) were synthesized via two pathways: (a) deacylation of the corresponding 5-acetyl Biginelli-like precursors in KOH/H₂O and (b) reduction of the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines using LiAlH₄. The products could be easily formylated at position 6, which is promising for the further synthesis of functionalized 6-substituted derivatives of 4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. In contrast, 6-acetyl-7-(4-(N,N-dimethylaminophenyl))-5-methyl-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine undergoes a cascade process in KOH/H₂O, leading to the formation of a 4,5,8,9-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline derivative.

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.     

2-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-b]pyrroles: synthesis and reactions

The synthesis and reactions of methyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate (1a) are described. Upon reaction with methyl iodide, benzyl chloride, or acetic anhydride, this compound gave N-substituted products 1b-d. By hydrolysis of compounds 1a-c, the corresponding acids 2a-c were formed, or by reaction with hydrazine-hydrate, the corresponding carbohydrazides 3a-c were formed. By heating 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenly]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid (2a) in acetic anhydride, 4-acetyl-2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-b]pyrrole (4) was formed. By hydrolysis of 4, 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole (5a) was formed, and reactions with methyl iodide or benzyl chloride gave N-substituted products 5b-c. The reaction of 4 with dimethyl butynedioate gave substituted benzo[b]furan 6. Compound 3a reacted with triethyl orthoesters giving 7a-c, which afforded with phosphorus (V) sulphide the corresponding thiones 8a-c. The thiones 8a-c reacted with hydrazine hydrate to form hydrazine derivatives 9a-c. The reaction of triethyl orthoformiate with compounds 9a-c led to furo[2′,3′: 4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-f][1,2,4]triazines 10a-c. Hydrazones 11a-c were formed from 3a-c and 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carboxaldehyde. The effect of microwave irradiation on some condensation reactions was compared with “classical” conditions. The results showed that microwave irradiation shortens the reaction time while affording comparable yields.

The thiazine ring of the [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones is easily cleaved by treating with ammonia and hydrazine affording amides and hydrazides of 3-aryl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylsulfanyl)propanoic acids. The latter react with isothiocyanates furnishing carbamoyl thiohydrazides of 3-aryl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylsulfanyl)propanoic acids that in alkaline media undergo cyclization into 4-aryl-5-[2-(4H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylsulfanyl)-2-phenylethyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones.

Design, synthesis, and antimicrobial activity of fused triheterocyclic nitrogen systems involving tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines [1]

Dehydrogenative cyclization of the 6-substituted 7-arylidenehydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines derived from 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-hydrazinotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines and aromatic aldehydes gave the corresponding 6-substituted 9-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazolo-[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines. The latter compounds were also obtained by an alternative route involving dehydrative cyclization of 6-methyl and 6-phenyl derivatives of 7-chlorotetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazines with aromatic hydrazides through the isolable aroylhydrazino intermediates. Also, the triazolotetrazolotriazine rings were accomplished by one-pot cyclization of cyclic amidrazones with aromatic acid chlorides. The ditetrazolo[1,5-b:1′,5′-d][1,2,4]triazine systems were synthesized by cyclization of the former cyclic amidrazones with nitrous acid, or cyclic imidoyl chlorides with sodium azide. The bis-triazolotetrazolotriazine derivatives were synthesized by cyclization of two equivalents of each cyclic imidoyl chloride with acid dihydrazides through the isolable bis-hydrazide products. The antimicrobial activity of representative compounds was studied.
