A series of alkyl l‐heteroaryl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4‐carboxylates 6a‐u were synthesised in four steps from methyl (Z)‐2‐benzyloxycarbonylarmino‐3‐(dimethylamino)prop‐2‐enoate ( 1 ) and heterocyclic amines 2a‐s. Triazoles 6a‐o were tested against antimycobacterial activity. For the most active compound, n‐pentyl 1‐(6‐phenylpyridazin‐3‐yl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4‐carboxylate ( 6n ), minimum inhibitory concentration 3.13 μg/ml was determined.     

Syntheses of 1‐(4‐methylsulfonylphenyl)‐5‐aryl‐1,2,3‐triazoles and ‐(4‐aminosulfonylphenyl)‐5‐aryl‐1,2,3‐triazoles

Condensation of 4‐methylsulfonylaniline with aryl aldehyde in ethanol‐tetrahydrofuran afforded the imino compound 3 . 1,3‐Cycloaddtion of diazomethane with compound 3 followed by oxidazation of the triazoline 4 with potassium permanganate gave 1‐(4‐methylsulfonylphenyl)‐5‐aryl‐1,2,3‐triazoles 5 . Similarly, condensation of 4‐(N,N‐dibenzylaminosulfonyl)aniline with aryl aldehyde followed by 1,3‐cycloaddition of diazomethane with the imino compound 11 and the subsequent oxidation of triazoline 12 with potassium permanganate yielded the triazole 13 . Debenzylation of compound 13 with sulfuric acid gave the desired compound 1‐(4‐aminosulfonylphenyl)5‐aryl‐1,2,3‐triazoles 14 .     

A Novel ‘Domino‐Click Approach’ to Unsymmetrical Bis‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazoles

Aryl azides 1 were treated with allenylmagnesium bromide ( 2 ) to generate 1,5‐disubstituted butynyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazoles 3 in a domino fashion, which upon Cu^I‐catalyzed 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition with aryl azides 4 afforded novel bis‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazoles 5 in quantitative yields (Scheme 1 and Table).

Previously unknown azomethylene derivatives of 4‐chloro‐5H‐1,2,3‐dithiazole 5–7 were synthesized by the reaction of the Appel salt 1 with N‐monosubstituted hydrazones 2–4. It was shown that they could be transformed into heterocyclic compounds 8–10.     

Neoglycopolymers Based on 4‐Vinyl‐1,2,3‐Triazole Monomers Prepared by Click Chemistry

The synthesis of a new glycomonomer based on mannose, prepared via CuAAC, is reported. The resulting 1,2,3‐triazole linkage between mannose and the polymer backbone ensures the formation of highly stable glycopolymers, which will not undergo hydrolysis. The monomer 2′‐(4‐vinyl‐[1,2,3]‐triazol‐1‐yl)ethyl‐O‐α‐D ‐mannopyranoside was polymerized in the presence of a RAFT agent – 3‐benzylsulfanylthiocarbonylsulfanyl propionic acid – to yield well‐defined polymers with molecular weights up to 51 500 g mol^?1 and a PDI of 1.16. The resulting polymer was employed as a macroRAFT agent in the polymerization of NIPAAm in order to generate thermo‐responsive block copolymers, which undergo reversible micelle formation at elevated temperatures. The rapid interaction between the polymers prepared and ConA confirms the high affinity of these structures to proteins. While the linear glycopolymers already undergo a fast complexation with ConA, the reported rates have found to be exceeded by the micellar glycopolymer structure presented in the current contribution.

     

Synthesis of Bis‐Heterocyclic 1H‐Imidazole 3‐Oxides from 3‐Oxido‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides

The reaction of 1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides 1 , which are conveniently accessible by treatment of the corresponding esters with NH₂NH₂?H₂O, with isothiocyanates in refluxing EtOH led to thiosemicarbazides (=hydrazinecarbothioamides) 4 in high yields (Scheme 2). Whereas 4 in boiling aqueous NaOH yielded 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones 5 , the reaction in concentrated H₂SO₄ at room temperature gave 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amines 6 . Similarly, the reaction of 1 with butyl isocyanate led to semicarbazides 7 , which, under basic conditions, undergo cyclization to give 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐ones 8 (Scheme 3). Treatment of 1 with Ac₂O yielded the diacylhydrazine derivatives 9 exclusively, and the alternative isomerization of 1 to imidazol‐2‐ones was not observed (Scheme 4). It is important to note that, in all these transformations, the imidazole N‐oxide residue is retained. Furthermore, it was shown that imidazole N‐oxides bearing a 1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione or 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amine moiety undergo the S‐transfer reaction to give bis‐heterocyclic 1H‐imidazole‐2‐thiones 11 by treatment with 2,2,4,4‐tetramethylcyclobutane‐1,3‐dithione (Scheme 5).

An Efficient and Convenient Synthesis of Ethyl 1‐(4‐Methoxyphenyl)‐5‐phenyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4‐carboxylate

The “click chemistry” of using organic azides and terminal alkynes is arguably the most efficient and straightforward route to the synthesis of 1,2,3‐triazoles. In this paper, an alternative and direct access to ethyl 1‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐5‐phenyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole‐4‐carboxylate is described. Treatment of ethyl diazoacetate with 4‐methoxyaniline derived aryl imines in the presence of 1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene provided fully substituted 1,2,3‐triazoles in good to high chemical yields. The base‐mediated reaction tolerates various substituted phenyl imines as well as ethyl diazoacetate or the more bulky diazoacetamide. A reasonable mechanism is proposed that involves the addition of an imine nitrogen atom to the terminal nitrogen atom of the diazo compound, followed by aromatization to give the 1,2,3‐triazole. The presence of the 4‐carboxy group is advantageous as it can be easily transformed into other functional groups.

Subsequent diazotization of these salts results in the exclusive formation of 1‐alkyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles. Single crystal X‐ray studies were carried out for 1‐amino‐3‐methyl‐1,2,3‐triazolium iodide, 1‐amino‐3‐ethyl‐1,2,3‐triazolium bromide, 1‐amino‐3‐n‐propyl‐1,2,3‐triazolium bromide, and 1‐amino‐3‐n‐butyl‐1,2,3‐triazolium bromide as well as the starting heterocycle, 1‐amino‐1,2,3‐triazole, and all of the structures are discussed.

Cyclocondensation of polystyrene‐supported α‐selenopropionic acid with amidoximes in the presence of 1‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐3‐ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) followed by oxidative deselenation efficiently afforded 5‐vinyl 1,2,4‐oxadiazoles in good yield and purity with a facile work‐up procedure.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel 1‐Methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazole Derivatives

A series of novel 1‐methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles was synthesized in three steps from 5‐(1‐methyl‐1H‐indazol‐3‐yl)‐4‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones. 5‐(1‐Methyl‐1H‐indazol‐3‐yl)‐4‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones were converted into 1‐methyl‐3‐(5‐(methylsulfonyl)‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles upon methylation followed by treatment with aq. KMnO₄. The reaction of 1‐methyl‐3‐(5‐(methylsulfonyl)‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles with Raney nickel resulted in desulphonylation to afford corresponding 1‐methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles.

Synthesis and reactivity ratios of regioisomeric vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles with styrene

The free radical reactivity ratios between styrene and different vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazole regioisomeric monomers in 1,4‐dioxane at 65 °C have been established using nonlinear least square method. The results obtained for the reactivity ratio between regioisomers show exceptionally different polymerization behavior, highlighting the effects of the electronic and steric factors of these regioisomeric monomers. The experimental results highlight the effects of the electronic and sterics on the copolymerization behavior. In case of 1,4‐vinyl‐triazoles, it was found that without the steric effects, the reactivity is very similar to that of styrene and forms random copolymers. However, it was found that 1,5‐vinyl‐triazoles are more reactive than 1,4‐vinyl triazoles. In the case of styrene‐co‐1,4‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles, the reactivity ratios were calculated to be r_styrene: r_{1‐octyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 1.97:0.54, r_styrene : r_{1‐benzyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 1.62:0.50, and r_styrene: r_{1‐methyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.90:0.87. On the other hand, reactivity ratios for styrene‐co‐1,5‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles were found to be r_styrene: r_{1‐octyl‐5‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.13:0.66 and r_styrene: r_{1‐benzyl‐5‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.34:0.49. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
