Dearylation with aromatization on cyclocondensation of 4-(dimethyl-amino)benzaldehyde, 2-phenacylaza-heterocycles, and 1,3-[N,C]dinucleophiles

Three-component cyclocondensation involving p-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde, 2-phenacylazahetero-cycle, and a 1,3-[N,C]-nucleophile (3,5-dimethoxyaniline, 6-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4-dione, 1-amino-3-methyl-5-phenylpyrazole) in boiling acetic acid is accompanied by aromatization of the initially formed annelated 4-(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-hetaryl-2-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyridines, the direction of which, with splitting off the dimethylaminophenyl substituent or its retention, is determined by the basicity of the hetaryl residue and the structure of the second ring, constructed on the binucleophile. A possible reaction mechanism is discussed. Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 101-109, January, 2009.

The reaction of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, 5-ethoxy-2-mercaptobenzimidazole, and 2-mercaptoimidazoline with cinnamoyl chloride, its derivatives, and heteroanalogs was studied. Convenient methods were found for the synthesis of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones and 7-aryl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3-thiazin-5-ones.     

Pyrrolopyrimidines. 5. Reaction of 6-Amino-1,3-dimethylpyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones with 1,3-Diketones

The reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione with 1,3-diketones leads to formation of predominantly pyrimido[4',5':3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones and, to a lesser extent, pyrimido[5',4':3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazine-1,3(2H,4H)-diones. The ease and direction of the cyclization reaction suggests a very -electron rich pyrrole ring in the initial state, especially in the position 7.     

Interaction of 3-amino-2-(isoxazol-3-yl)-4-methoxymethyl-6-methyl-thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridine with Raney nickel

3-Amino-2-(isoxazol-3-yl)-4-methoxymethyl-6-methylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine was synthesized by the reaction of 2(1H)-thioxopyridine-3-carbonitrile with 3-chloromethylisoxazole in the presence of two equivalents of KOH. Boiling of 3-amino-2-(isoxazol-3-yl)-4-methoxymethyl-6-meth-ylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine with Raney nickel results in 4-aminothieno[2,3-b;4,5-b′]dipyridine or 5-(4-amino-2-pyridyl)pyridine depending on the reaction conditions.

Reactivity of sarcosine and 1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid towards salicylaldehyde-derived alkynes and allenes

The reaction of sarcosine and 1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid with salicylaldehyde-derived alkynes and allenes opened the way to new chromeno[4,3-b]pyrrole and chromeno[2,3-b]pyrrole derivatives. Tetrahydro-chromeno[4,3-b]pyrroles were obtained from the reaction of these secondary amino acids with O-propargylsalicylaldehyde. Interestingly, sarcosine reacted with ethyl 4-(2-formylphenoxy)but-2-ynoate to give a monocyclic pyrrole resulting from rearrangement of the initially formed 1,3-dipolar cycloadduct. Decarboxylative condensation of ethyl 4-(2-formylphenoxy)but-2-ynoate with 1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid afforded in a stereoselective fashion the expected chromeno-pyrrolo[1,2-c]thiazole, which structure was unambiguously established by X-ray crystallography. However, the 1H,3H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]thiazole resulting from the opening of the pyran ring was also isolated. The reaction with O-buta-2,3-dienyl salicylaldehyde afforded 3-methylene-hexahydrochromeno[4,3-b]pyrrole. O-Allenyl salicylaldehyde reacted with sarcosine and 1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid to give a new type of chromeno-pyrroles. A mechanism proposal for the synthesis of these chromeno[2,3-b]pyrroles has been presented.

Summary Reaction of 1,3-diaza-1,3-butadienes (1a–c) with various ketenes and chloroketenes results in the formation of substituted 4-oxo-pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazoles (4a–d) and 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimido-4-ones (4e,f). Reaction of 1,3-diaza-1,3-butadienes1d,e with ketenes and chloroketenes leads to the 2-morpholine-substituted compounds7 and15, respectively. All reactions proceedvia formation of [4+2] cycloadducts that eliminate methylthiol, methylsulfenyl chloride, or morpholine.

Study of the Products of Iodocyclization of 4-Allyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione

The interaction of 4-allyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione with iodine proceeds with the formation of a mixture of 6-iodomethyl-3-phenyl-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazole and 6-iodo-3-phenyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3-thiazine. The structures of the cyclization products obtained were established on the basis of the ¹H NMR spectra of their dehydroiodinated derivatives. 6-Methyl-3-phenylthiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazole, 3-phenyl-5H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3-thiazine, and 3-phenyl-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3-thiazine are formed on eliminating HI from the cyclization products.     

Reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil with hexafluoroacetone and ethyl trifluoropyruvate benzoylimines

Heating of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil with hexafluoroacetone and ethyl trifluoropyruvate benzoylimines in DMF in the presence of Et₃N results in 1,3-dimethyl-7-phenyl-5,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4,5,8-hexahydropyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione and 5-benzoylamido-1,3-dimethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione, respectively.     

Synthesis and Properties of 6-Amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

We have established that when 5-chloro-6-[cyano(2,3-dihydro-1-R-benzo[d]azol-2-yl)methyl]-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles are reacted with nucleophilic reagents (aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydrogen sulfide), annelation of the five-membered ring occurs on the [b] face of the pyrazine with formation of 6-amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles and 6-amino-7-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile respectively. Further heating with excess of acylating reagent leads to formation of a novel heterocyclic system 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrazino[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-e]pyrimidine. Reaction of vicinal dinitriles with hydrazine hydrate leads to the novel system 1H-pyrrolo[2',3':5,6]pyrazino[2,3-d]pyridazine.     

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.     

Reaction of 6-methoxybenzo[b]furan-3(2H)-one and benzo[b]thiophen-3(2H)-one with 2-aryl-1,1-dicyanoethylenes as a convenient synthetic route to substituted 2-amino-4-aryl-1,3-dicyano-7-methoxydibenzo[b,d]furans and 2-amino-4-aryl-3-cyano-4H-benzothieno[3,2-b]pyrans

The reactions of 6-methoxybenzo[b]furan-3(2H)-one with 2-aryl-1,1-dicyanoethylenes and malononitrile or with aromatic aldehyde and two moles of malononitrile afford 2-amino-4-aryl-1,3-dicyano-7-methoxydibenzo[b,d]furans. The reactions of benzo[b]thiophen-3(2H)-one with 2-aryl-1,1-dicyanoethylenes or with aromatic aldehyde and one mole of malononitrile produce 2-amino-4-aryl-3-cyano-4H-benzothieno[3,2-b]pyrans.

4-(Bromomethylene)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one was obtained on the basis of the readily obtainable 4-methylene-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one. It forms 2-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl-2-propanol with 2-aminopyridine, 11a-hydroxy-1,1-dimethyl-3-oxo-1,5,11,11a-tetrahydro[1,3]oxazolo[3,4-a]pyrido[1,2-d]-10-pyrazinium bromide with 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine, and the corresponding derivative of 4-hydroxyoxazolidin-2-one with 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylamine. The last product was converted by intramolecular amidoalkylation without isolation into 10b-(bromomethyl)-8,9-dimethoxy-1,1-dimethyl-1,5,6,10b-tetrahydro[1,3]oxazolo[3,4-a]isoquinolin-3-one.     

Heterocyclic analogs of 5,12-naphthacenequinone 8.* Synthesis of furano-anthraquinones

During the condensation of 2,3-dichloroquinizarine with methyl pivaloylacetate in the presence of potassium carbonate in dimethyl sulfoxide the main reaction products are derivatives of angular 3-pivaloylanthra[1,2-b]furan-2,6,11(3H)-trione (about 70%) and anthra[2,1-d][1,3]dioxole-6,11-dione (15%), whereas the yield of the targeted linear methyl 2-tert-butyl-4,11-dihydroxyanthra[2,3-b]furan-5,10-dione-3-carboxylate is only 2%. Methods are developed for modification of the obtained 3-pivaloylanthra[1,2-b]furan-2,6,11(3H)-trione, making it possible to use it for the synthesis of the tert-butyl derivatives of linear anthra[2,3-b]furan-5,10-dione or angular anthra[1,2-b]furan-6,11-dione. *For Communication 7 see [1].
