Synthesis of Trifluoroalkyl- and Fluoroaryl-Substituted 4,5-Dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones

Reactions of 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-, 4-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)-, 4-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-, 4-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-, 4-piperidino-, and 4-(3-pyridyl)thiosemicarbazides with esters gave the corresponding 3,4-disubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones and their S-alkyl derivatives. Analogous reactions with methyl 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoropentanoate and 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoropentanenitrile afforded, respectively, the acylation and addition products.     

Ene Synthesis of Bicyclic Arylmethylenedihydropyrazoles Using 4-Phenyl-4,5-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dione

8-Acetyl-7-aryl-2-arylmethylene-8,9-diaza- and 4,8,9-triazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-9-enes react with4-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dione, following the ene addition pattern. Under similar conditons 7-aryl-2-arylmethylene-8-methyl-8,9-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-9-enes give rise to both mono- and polyadditionproducts. The product structures were studied by ¹H and ¹³C NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopy and singlecrystal X-ray diffraction.     

Synthesis of 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones and their isatin-3-imine derivatives

Iminoester hydrochlorides 1 have been synthesized. These compounds were then converted into ester ethoxycarbonyl hydrazones 2, from which in turn a new series of substituted 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones, 3, was then prepared.Finally a set of isatin imine derivatives 4 was obtained from the reaction of compounds 3 with isatin. The structures of all the new synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H-NMR and (13)C-NMR spectra.     

3-(Prop-2-enylidene)azetidin-2-one Derivatives: Synthesis,structure, and formation of 3-spiro-β-lactams via Diels–Alder reactions

Reactions of 3-silylated β-lactams ( 1 ) with α,β-unsaturated ketones give the propylidene-β-lactams 3 and the cycloalkenylidene derivatives 5 . Structure and configuration are elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and the reactivity is discussed. While compounds 5 do not react with dienophiles, the (Z)-isomers of 3 are the favored substrates for Diels-Alder reactions yielding the spiro compounds 6 and 7 .     

Synthesis of some new 4,5-substituted-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives

In this study appropriate hydrazide compounds, furan-2-carboxylic acid hydrazide (1) and phenylacetic acid hydrazide (2) were converted into 1,4-substituted thiosemicarbazides 4a-e and 5a-e and 4-amino-5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 7 and 10. The 1,4-substituted thiosemicarbazides were then converted into 5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4-(aryl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 8a-e and 9a-e. In addition, the azomethines 11a-d and 12a-d were prepared from the corresponding arylaldehydes and the 4-amino-5-(furan-2-yl or benzyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 7 and 10. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H-NMR and(13) C-NMR spectra.     

Condensation of 5-(4-methylphenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione with haloacetic acids

Reactions of triazolethiones with haloacetic acids were studied with 5-(4-methylphenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione as an example. It was proved for the first time by X-ray diffraction that the cyclocondensation of these compounds proceeds regiospecifically to give 2-(4-methylphenyl)[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazol-6(5H)-one rather than its isomer 3-(4-methylphenyl)[1,3]thiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazol-5(6H)-one.     

Synthesis of Schiff and Mannich bases of isatin derivatives with 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones

Ethyl imidate hydrochlorides 1 were prepared by passing HCl gas through solutions of substituted benzyl cyanides and absolute ethanol. Ethoxycarbonylhydrazones 2 were synthesized from the reaction of compounds 1 with ethyl carbazate. Treatment of 2 with hydrazine hydrate leads to the formation of substituted 4-amino-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones 3. Isatin and 5-chloroisatin were added to 3 to form Schiff bases 4 and N-Mannich bases 5 of these compounds were synthesized by reacting with formaldehyde and piperidine. Their chemical structures were confirmed by means of IR, (1)H- and (13)C-NMR data and by elemental analysis.     

Stereoselective synthesis of 3-alkylidene/alkylazetidin-2-ones from azetidin-2,3-diones

Azetidin-2,3-diones have been used as synthons for the synthesis of C-3 alkylidene/alkylazetidin-2-ones. Some of the 3-alkylazetidin-2-ones are well known for their cholesterol absorption inhibitor activity. A regio and stereoselective Grignard reaction on a keto group followed by dehydration using PPh₃/CCl₄ reagent is a key step in this synthesis. Hydrogenation of the 3-alkylideneazetidin-2-ones provided stereoselectively cis-3-alkylazetidin-2-ones in very good yields.

Reactions of 3,5-dibromo-1-(thiiran-2-ylmethyl)-1,2,4-triazole with NH-azoles

Reactions of 3,5-dibromo-1-(thiiran-2-ylmethyl)-1,2,4-triazole with 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, 1,3-dimethyl-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-dione, 3,5-dibromo-1,2,4-triazole, 2,4,5-tribromoimidazole, and 2-chlorobenzimidazole lead to the formation of 5-azolylmethyl-2-bromo-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazoles. In the case of 8-bromo-1,3-dimethyl-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-dione the intermediate thiolate anion undergoes cyclization into 7-[(3,5-dibromo-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]-1,3-dimethyl-6,7-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-f]purine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione. The structure of reaction products depends on the relative rate of substitution of leaving groups in the reagents.     

Experimental and theoretical structural studies on 4-(2-phenylethyl)-5-(2-furyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione

The structural and conformational features of 4-(2-phenylethyl)-5-(2-furyl)-2, 4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione (1a), which can be related to the biological activity, have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and molecular modeling techniques. Ab initio method (RHF/6-31G) and density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31G(D)) have been used to calculate structural parameters, conformations, and relative energy of two tautomeric specious (1a and 1b) of the title compound. The geometry and the conformation of the thione form, 1a, is well reproduced by the DFT (B3LYP/6-31G(D)) method as compared with X-ray structure in which this form is found. The thione form is also predicted to be 14.42 kcal/mol more stable than the thiol form in the gas-phase by the DFT method.
