Resorcinol and 5-methylresorcinol, respectively, react with 3-oxo-2-aryl-4,4,4-trifluorobutyronitrile using zinc chloride as a catalyst in dibutyl ether under the Hoesch reaction conditions to give a low yield of 3-aryl-7-hydoxy-4-trifluoromethyl- or 3-aryl-5-hydroxy-7-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-2H-l-benzopyran-2-ones. However, the related reaction with m-methoxyphenol was found to produce poor yields of 3-aryl-7-methoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one and its 3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy derivative.     

Synthesis and Transformations of 2-R-5-Aryl-5,6-dihydro-7H-[1,2,4]-triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazin-7-ones

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.

Treatment of 6-amino-5-arylazo-1,3-dimethyluracils with urea or N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole gave the respective 6-aryl-1,3-dimethyl-6,7-dihydro-6-azalumazin-7-(6H)ones, which were hydrolyzed with alkali to afford 2-aryl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-triazine-6-carboxylic acids (1-aryl-6-azauracil-5-carboxylic acids). Thermal decomposition of these carboxylic acids gave the corresponding 2-aryl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)diones (1-aryl-6-azauracils). Methylation of the latter with methyl iodide gave the corresponding 2-aryl-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)diones (1-aryl-3-methyl-6-azauracils).     

Reactions of 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones with phenols and aromatic amines

1,2,4-Triazin-5(2H)-ones 1 react as well with phenols, resorinol and its dimethyl ethers, as with dimethyland diethylaniline, yielding 6-aryl-1,6-didydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 2, 4–8, 12–15. Oxidation of the 1,6-dihydroadducts 2a,b gives the corresponding 3-aryl-6-hydroxyphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a,b.

NOVEL SYNTHESIS OF CONDENSED HETEROCYCLIC SYSTEMS CONTAINING 1,2,4-TRIAZOLE RING

3-Aryl-6,7-dihydro-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3]thiazines and 3-aryl-5,6-dihydro-thiazolo[2,3-c]-s-triazoles were synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of 3-aryl-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles with 1,3-dibromopropane and 1,2-dichloroethane.

6- and 7-aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazines. Synthesis and characterization

Synthetic methods for the preparation of 6-aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazines ( 1 ) and the 7-aryl isomers ( 2 ) are described. Compounds 1 were prepared from aryl glyoxaldoximes 76 via 6-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)ones ( 75 ). A simple procedure for the preparation of the 7-aryl isomers was effected using arylglyoxals 11 and the triazoles ( 4, 12a and 12b ). However, complete regioselectivity was not realized in all cases, especially when the triazoles were substituted at the C-5 position. A regiospecific synthesis of the 7-aryl isomers 2 was developed via the 3-methylthio-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazines ( 61 ). The structure of the parent 6-phenyl derivative 5 was confirmed by x-ray crystallography.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g . Oxidation of the dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-e afforded 6-(indolyl-3)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 4a-e , products of nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in 1a-c . Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .

Treatment of 4-aryl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-pyrones with sodium azide in DMSO afforded the corresponding (Z)-3-(5-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)cinnamic acids in good yields. Similarly, 4-aryl-3-carbethoxy-6-trifluoromethyl-2-pyrones smoothly reacted with sodium azide in acetonitrile to produce (E)-2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-(5-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)cinnamic acids in high yields, whereas their reactions in ethanol, accompanied by a configurational change, gave the thermodynamically more stable (Z)-2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-(5-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)cinnamic acids.

The condensation of 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenylbut-1-en-3-one with 2-aminobenzimidazole, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, and 5-aminotetrazole gives hydroxy-substituted tetrahydro derivatives of pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole, and of 1,2,4-triazolo-, and tetrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine. Dehydration of them to the corresponding dihydroazolopyrimidines has been carried out. An X-ray structural investigation was carried out and the molecular structure of 5-hydroxy-7-phenyl-5-trifluoromethyl-4,5,5,7-tetrahydrotetrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine is discussed.     

Ring-transformation of 1,2,4-oxadiazines. Raney nickel hydrogenation of Z-3-aryl-5,6-dihydro-5-(substituted)methylene-4H-1,2,4-oxadiazine derivatives
