The reactions of methyl α-(2-formyl-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)carboxylates with N-substituted aliphatic 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-diamines afford new pyrrole-containing heterocyclic systems: 1,2,3,10b-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c]pyrazin-5(6H)-ones, 1,3,4,11b-tetrahydro-2H-pyrrolo[2′,1′:3,4]pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrimidin-6(7H)-ones, and 1,2,3,4,5,12b-hexahydro-pyrrolo[2′,1′:3,4]pyrazino[1,2-a][1,3]diazepin-7(8H)-ones. The reduction of these compounds with different reagents was studied.     

A Facile and Efficient Synthesis of Novel 1,2,4-Triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-one Derivatives

Summary.  A facile and efficient synthesis of a series of novel 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolines is described. 2,3-Diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones were obtained by reaction of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with aromatic aldehydes as well as by ring closure of the corresponding anils. Treatment of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with aromatic carboxylic acids afforded 2,3-diaryl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones which could also be synthesized by dehydrogenation of the corresponding dihydro derivatives. Reaction of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with diethyl malonate and acetylacetone gave 3-aryl-3,9-dihydro-9-oxo-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-2-yl-acetic acid ethyl ester and 3-aryl-2-methyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones, respectively. The latter compounds were also prepared via reaction with acetic anhydride, whereas acetylation with acetic anhydride in the presence of pyridine afforded the acetyl derivatives.

1,2-Fused pyrimidines. III. Derivatives of 12H-pyrido[1′,2′:1,2]pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline,a novel heterocyclic system

Reactivities of 2-amino-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones and 4-amino-2H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-2-ones, both N,N-dialkyl and (N-alkyl, N-phenyl)substituted, when treated with the N,N-dimethylformamide/phosphorus oxychloride Vilsmeier-Haack reagent XII were compared. Starting from 2-[(N-alkyl, N-phenyl)amino] compounds IXa,b , the expected XVIa,b and XVIIa,b were obtained, which are derivatives of 12H-pyrido[1′,2′:1,2]pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline, a novel heterocyclic system. When 2-(phenylamino) compound IXc was used a mixture of 3-formylderivative XVIII and 12H-pyrido-[1′,2′:1,2]pyrimido[4,5-b]quinolin-12-one ( XIX ) resulted from the reaction. On the other hand, 2-(dialkylamino)-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones IIIa-c plainly afforded high yields of 3-formylderivatives XIVa-c. In contrast, no significant reaction occurred when 4-(dialkylamino) and 4-[(N-alkyl,N-phenyl)amino] compounds IIa-c and VIIIa,b were treated with the reagent XII , under the same as well as more severe conditions. A clear difference in the nucleophilic reactivity of C-3 position between these two classes of isomers is pointed out by the above summarized results.     

Metal-free synthesis of benzimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-6-ones with indole and benzenediamine oxidized by I2/TBHP

A variety of benzimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-6-ones derivatives can be accessed in moderate to good yields under simple and metal-free reaction conditions using indoles and o-benzenediamines oxidized by iodine and TBHP. This procedure works in reasonable yields for different indoles as well as o-benzenediamines thus may provide a good synthesis of quinazolinones. A TBHP oxidized ring expansion reaction mechanism that explains the synthesis of benzimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-6-ones were reported.

Free 3-amino-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 24 – 26 were prepared from 10 – 12 by removal of the 2-(methoxycarbonyl)-3-oxobut-1-enyl or 3-oxo-2-[(phenyl-methoxy)carbonyl]but-1-envl as N-protecting group by various methods.     

Reactions of 2-acyl-1,3-indandiones with monosubstituted hydrazines and hydrazides

Methyl- and phenylhydrazines react with 2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indandione ( 1 ) to yield respectively the 1-(methylhydrazone) and the 1-(phenylhydrazone) of 2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indandione ( 2a and 2b ). In comparison, acetic and benzoic acid hydrazides react with 1 to give respectively the α-(acetylhydrazone) and the α-(benzoylhydrazone) of 2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indandione ( 3a and 3b ). Cyclization of 2a and 2b gives 2,3-disubstituted indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-ones ( 7a and 7b ). Cyclization of 3a and 3b , followed by methylation, gives 1-methyl- and 2-methyl-3-(diphenylmethyl)indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-4(1 and 2H)-ones ( 9a and 9b ). 2-Isovaleryl-1,3-indandione reacts with phenylhydrazine to give directly 3-isobutyl-1-phenylindeno[1,2-c]-pyrazol-4(1H)-one ( 10 ).     

Metal-Free,Photoredox-Catalyzed Synthesis of Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazolines Using Trialkylamines as Alkyl Synthon

Highly functionalized quinazolin-4(3H)-ones were synthesized from reactions of N-aryl-2-aminobenzamides with trialkylamines under photocatalytic conditions by using eosin Y (EY) as a catalyst. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions in aqueous acetonitrile and has a broad substrate scope. Mechanistic studies disclosed the electron-donor nature of the intermediate 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one ( 3’ ) in the photocatalytic cycle to afford the 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolin-4(3H)-ones ( 3 ). This methodology has been extended to synthesize benzo [4,5] imidazole[1,2-c] quinazolines and 3 aa on a large scale. Furthermore, the synthesis of potent central nervous system depressant (CNS) drug molecules such as methaqualone ( 3 la ) and mecloqualone ( 3 pa ) was also achieved successfully.

 A facile and efficient synthesis of a series of novel 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolines is described. 2,3-Diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones were obtained by reaction of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with aromatic aldehydes as well as by ring closure of the corresponding anils. Treatment of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with aromatic carboxylic acids afforded 2,3-diaryl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones which could also be synthesized by dehydrogenation of the corresponding dihydro derivatives. Reaction of 3-amino-2-arylamino-3H-quinazolin-4-ones with diethyl malonate and acetylacetone gave 3-aryl-3,9-dihydro-9-oxo-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-2-yl-acetic acid ethyl ester and 3-aryl-2-methyl-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-9-ones, respectively. The latter compounds were also prepared via reaction with acetic anhydride, whereas acetylation with acetic anhydride in the presence of pyridine afforded the acetyl derivatives.     

Synthesis of 5H-benzothiazolo[3,2-a]quinazolin-5-ones

5H-Benzothiazolo[3,2-a]quinazolin-5-ones (Va-d) were synthesized by thermal cyclization of N-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2-fluorobenzamides (IVa-d) which were obtained by allowing 2-fluorobenzoyl chloride to react with 2-aminobenzothiazoles.     

Synthesis of 5H-benzoxazolo[3,2-a]quinazolin-5-ones

5H-Benzoxazolo[3,2-a]quinazolin-5-ones (Xa-d) were synthesized in excellent yields from N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)anthranilic acids (Ia-d) and cyanogen bromide. The synthesis was based on the mechanistic consideration of the reactions of salicylic acid with cyanogen bromide previously reported in the literature. A versatile alternative route to these novel heterocyclic compounds was through thermal cyclization of N-(2-benzoxazolyl)-2-fluorobenzamides (XIII) obtained by reacting 2-fluorobenzoyl chloride with 2-aminobenzoxazoles. The reaction of Xb with ethanol in the presence of potassium hydroxide gave an ethoxyquinazolinone (XVII). Similarly, the alkaline hydrolysis of Xb afforded an quinazolindione (XVIII).

The starting compounds 8 were prepared by treating 2-amino-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones N-alkyl substituted 7a,b or N-phenyl substituted 4 with excess anhydrides (130°, 7 hours) when the 2-(alkylamino) derivatives 7 were used in the reaction, compounds 8 were obtained along with very small amounts of 3-acyl-2-(alkylamino)-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 9 .     

Reactions of 3-hydroxy-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-4-ones with aldehydes

The reactions with other aldehydes RCHO and 3-hydroxy-2-R′-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-4-ones can give 3-hydroxy-2-R-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-4-ones, 2-substituted quinazolin-4-ones, or dianthranilide.

Reaction of sulfenes with heterocyclic N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. XIII. Synthesis of 1,2-oxathiino[6,5-f]quinazoline derivatives

The 1,4-cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted (E)-6-aminomethylene-7,8-dihydro-(2-methyl)-(2-phenyl)quinazolin-5(6H)-ones I gave N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-(8-methyl) (8-phenyl)-1,2-oxathiino[6,5-f]quinazoline 2,2-dioxides II , which are derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 1,2-oxathiino[6,5-f]quinazoline. With 2-phenylenaminones Id-h , the cycloaddition occurred, generally in satisfactory yields, both in the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution and aromatic N-monosubstitution, whereas with 2-methyl enaminones Ia-c the reaction took place in low yields only in the case of aliphatic N,N-disubstitution. Also the reaction of 2-phenyl enaminones Id-g with chlorosulfene occurred as with sulfene, giving a mixture of cycloadducts which were dehydrochlorinated in situ with DBN to afford N,N-di-substituted 4-amino-5,6-dihydro-8-phenyl-1,2-oxathiino[6,5-f]quinazoline 2,2-dioxides III generally in satisfactory yields. Compounds III could not be dehydrogenated either by DDQ in boiling benzene or by palladium on carbon in boiling p-cymene.

An efficient synthesis of the novel triazoloquinazoline adenosine antagonist,CGS 15943

An efficient synthesis of the novel triazoloquinazoline adenosine antagonist, CGS 15943, is reported in five steps in approximately 50% overall yield. A key reaction in the synthetic sequence is the double cyclization of an N-(substituted-2-cyanophenyl)carbamate with a carboxylic acid hydrazide to afford a [1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-c]quinazolin-5(6H)-one in high yield without either a Dimroth or “translocative” rearrangement occurring. Another key reaction is the condensation of a 2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)benzenamine with cyanamide under acidic conditions to prepare a guanidine.

Methyl 2-(benzyloxycarbonyl)aimno-3-dimemylaminopropenoate ( 2 ) was prepared from methyl N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)glycinate ( 1 ) and t-butoxybis(dimethylamino)methane, and used as a reagent for preparation of substituted 3-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino-4H-quinolizin-4-ones 5 and 6 , ?2H-pyran-2-ones 17–19 , ?2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones 28–31 , and -naphthopyrans 32–35 , ?2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine-2,5-dione 46 , -pyrano-[4,3-b]pyran-2,5-dione 47 , -pyrano[3,2-c]benzopyran-2,5-dione 48 , -pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-6-ones 49 and 50 , -pyrano[2,3-d]pyrirnidin-7-ones 51 and 52 derivatives. In the reaction of 2 with 1,3-diketones trisubsti tuted pyrroles 14–16 were formed. Selective removal of benzyloxycarbonyl group was achieved by cat alytic transfer hydrogenation with Pd/C in the presence of cyclohexene to afford free 3-amino compounds 7 , 8 , 20 , 36–38 and 53–57 in yields better than 80%.     

Reactions of derivatives of anthranilic acid with 3-chloropropyl isocyanate

The urea 1 obtained from anthranilonitrile and 3-chloropropyl isocyanate is converted into 3-(3-chloropropyl)-2,4(1H,3H)quinazolinedione ( 4 ) when heated with hydrochloric acid, whereas it undergoes a double cyclization to form 2,3,4,7-tetrahydro-6H-pyrimido[1,2-c]quinazolin-6-one ( 3 ) upon heating, or treatment with ammonia. On the other hand, the urea 5 formed from methyl anthranilate and 3-chloropropyl isocyanate cyclizes in three different ways, when treated with ammonia, potassium bicarbonate, or concentrated sulfuric acid, to yield compound 4 , 3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-[1,3]oxazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 9 ), or 2-[(3-chloropropyl)amino]-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one ( 6 ), respectively. Acid-catalyzed reactions of compound 9 with nucleophilic reagents proceed with opening of the oxazine ring and readily yield various 3-substituted 2,4(1H,3H)-quinazolinediones.
