Selenium heterocycles. XXXVII . Synthesis of 4-(thiazol-4-yl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles and 4-(selenazol-4-yl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles

Starting from readily available 2-substituted-4-formylthiazoles and selenazoles, a series of 4-(2-aryl-4-selenazolyl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles I and 4-(2-substituted-4-thiazolyl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles II were prepared. Pyrolysis of compound II afforded (2-substituted-4-thiazolyl) acetylenes VII. Addition of potassium hydroxide pellets to an alcoholic solution of II gave 2-substituted-1,4-diselenafulvenes VIII. Decomposition of compound II with base followed by the addition of carbon disulfide gave 5-substituted 2-thioxo-1,3-thiaselenoles XI.     

4-(3-Cyanopyridin-2-ylthio)acetoacetates in synthesis of heterocycles

Substituted 2-amino-4-aryl-3-cyano-5-oxo-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines were synthesized by the reactions of 4-hydroxy-1H-thieno[2,3-b;4,5-b]dipyridin-2-ones with arylidenemalononitriles or by the three-component reactions of hydroxythienodipyridinones with aldehydes and malononitrile in DMF in the presence of triethylamine. Methods for syntheses of substituted 3-alkoxycarbonyl-6-amino-4-aryl-2-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthiomethyl)-4H-pyrans were developed on the basis of the reactions of 4-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthio)acetoacetates and arylidenemalononitriles or aldehydes and malononitrile. Ethyl 4-(3-cyanopyridin-2-ylthio)acetoacetate and 4-methoxybenzylidenecyanothioacetamide were used for the synthesis of 6-(pyridin-2-ylthiomethyl)-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thione.     

New synthesis of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiazoles from 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole

Treatment of 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole with potassium tert-butoxide generated potassium 2-(1-adamantyl)ethynethiolate which reacted with aromatic carboxylic acid chlorides to give unstable S-[2-(1-adamantyl)ethynyl] arenecarbothioates whose acid hydrolysis afforded S-[2-(1-adamantyl)-2-oxoethyl] arenecarbothioates. The latter reacted with ammonium acetate in acetic acid yielding 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiadiazoles. Reactions of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)-1,3-thiadiazole with cyclic secondary amines gave the corresponding products of nucleophilic replacement of the chlorine atom in the aromatic ring.

Design and synthesis of novel fused heterocycles using 4-chromanone as synthon

A new series of heterocyclic systems, including azole, azolopyrimidine, and pyridopyrimidine derivatives, attached to 2H-chromene scaffold, was prepared by a convenient procedure through the reactions of (E)-2-dimethylamino-methylene chromanone with different nitrogen binucleophiles. Various substituted chromeno[4,3-b]pyridine derivatives were also prepared through the reactions of (E)-2-dimethylaminomethylene chromanone with a series of active methylene compounds.

     

2-Alkyl-4-amino-5-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)-2H-1,2,3-triazole 1-oxides: synthesis and reduction

A new approach to the synthesis of 4-amino-5-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)-2-R-2H-1,2,3-triazole 1-oxides 1 was developed. Compounds 1 were obtained by reactions of 3-amino-4-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)furoxan with aliphatic amines RNH₂ (R = Me, Et, Prⁱ, Bu, and Bu^t). 4-Amino-5-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)-2-tert-butyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole 1-oxide was transformed under the action of acids into 4-amino-5-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)-1-hydroxy-1H-1,2,3-triazole. Methylation of the latter with diazomethane mainly involves the O atom of the triazole oxide ring. Reduction of compounds 1 gave 4-amino-5-(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)-2-R-2H-1,2,3-triazoles and 4-amino-5-(tert-butyldiazenyl)-2-R-2H-1,2,3-triazoles (R = Me, Prⁱ, and Bu^t). The structures of the compounds obtained were confirmed by ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁴N NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis of some 4-substituted-2-(o-halogenophenyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

Mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime was treated with either 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl- (a), o-fluorophenyl- (b), or o-bromophenyl- (c) hydrazine to give the corresponding mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime-2-halogenophenylhydrazones (1a,b,c). The latter were O-acetylated with acetic anhydride, and cyclized to triazole 4-oximes (3b, c) or triazole 4-O-acetyloximes ( 6a,b,c ) with cesium carbonate, then converted to nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) by refluxing with acetic anhydride followed by pyrolysis, or to aldehydes ( 4a,b,c ) by hydrolysis. The nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) were also converted to acids ( 9a,b,c ), esters ( 10a,b,c ), amides ( 8a,c ), an alcohol (11a), and an amine ( 12a ). In addition, tetrazoles of two types were prepared. The first ( 13d,e ) were obtained from the acid chlorides by the action of 5-aminotetrazole, whereas the second ( 14f ) was produced from the respective nitrile by the action of ammonium azide.     

Synthesis of Bis(2-benzofuranyl) Diselenides from 4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles

4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles obtained by the action of selenium(IV) oxide on o-hydroxyacetophenone semicarbazones are readily converted into the corresponding potassium benzofuran- 2-selenolates via reaction with potassium carbonate. Oxidation of potassium benzofuran-2-selenolates with iodine gives bis(2-benzofuranyl) diselenides in good yields.     

4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles as a Source of 2-Benzofuranthiolates

Following the Hurd-Mori procedure, 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles were synthesized from o-hydroxyacetophenones. Treatment of the products with bases gives 2-benzofuranthiolates which can be involved in alkylation and arylation reactions.     

4-(2-Hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles as Precursors of Benzofuran-2-selenolates

The reaction of selenium dioxide with o-hydroxyacetophenone semicarbazones gives 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,2,3-selenadiazoles which undergo ready decomposition by the action of potassium carbonate to form benzofuran-2-selenolates. The latter can be alkylated with methyl iodide and benzyl chloride and arylated with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene. Intermediate formation of 2-(o-hydroxyphenyl)ethyneselenolate during decomposition of 1,2,3-selenadiazoles was proved by the isolation of methyl o-methoxyphenylethynyl selenide when the substrate was treated with potassium carbonate in the presence of methyl iodide.     

C-H bond functionalization in the synthesis of fused 1,2,3-triazoles

A highly modular approach to fused 1,2,3-triazoles has been developed featuring a one-pot procedure combining copper(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition and palladium-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization. A class of structurally unique heterocycles was synthesized in good yields.     

Microwave-assisted synthesis of fused heterocycles incorporating trifluoromethyl moiety

4,4,4-Trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione (1) reacts with 5-aminopyrazole, 1,2,4-aminotriazole and 2-aminobenzimidazole derivatives, in the presence of triethylorthoformate under pressurized microwave irradiation to afford the corresponding trifluoromethyl derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, and pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles. Also, compound 1 couples readily with azole diazonium salts to give pyrazolo[5,1-c]triazine, benzimidazo[5,1-c]1,2,4-triazine, and triazolo[3,4-c]1,2,4-triazine derivatives incorporating trifluoromethyl group.
