Benzo[h]cinnolin

The synthesis of benzo[h]cinnolin ( 3 ) is reported. Its spectroscopic properties (uv, luminescence, pmr, ms) are similar to the other diazaphenanthrenes containing a diazine ring. The lowering of the basicity of 3 compared with a monoazaphenanthrene like other diaza-aromatic compounds appears to be due to an electrostatic field effect and not to an inductive effect.     

Benzo[3,4]cyclobuta[1,2-b]thiophene

Tye synthesis of thieno[3,2-c]cinnoline is described; vapour phase thermolysis of this compound gives benzo[3,4]cyclobuta[1,2-b]thiophene.     

Synthesis of two new heterocyclic ring systems: Benzo[3,4] cyclohepta[1,2-d]-pyrimidines and benzo[3,4]cyclohepta[2,1-d] pyrimidines

Three 2,4-diamino-l(), 11-dihydro-9H-benzo[3,4]cyclohepta[ 1,2-d]pyrimidines (6a-6c) representing the first examples of a new ring system were synthesized from 2-benzosuberones and cyanoguanidine. Similarly, 2,4-diamino-6,7-dihydro-5H-benzo[3,4]cyelohepta[2,1-d]pyrimidine ( 24 ) was prepared from 1-benzosuberone. The ultraviolet spectral properties of these compounds were examined with reference to those of the analogs in which the central ring is five- and six-mernbered.     

Acylation of 3,4-Dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines

The direction of trifluoroacetylation with trifluoroacetic anhydride of 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines containing an alkyl or aralkyl substituent in position 1 depends on both the structure of the 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine starting materials and on the ratio of reagent:substrate. It may lead to both mono- and disubstituted products. Trifluoroacetylation of 1-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines occurs at the methyl group. Acetylation of 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines leads only to N-acetyl-substituted reaction products.     

Formylation of 3,4-Dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines

Formylation of 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines containing alkyl or aryl substituents at position 1 has been studied under the conditions of the Vilsmeier reaction. The direction of the reaction depends on the structure of 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine starting materials. Formylation of 1-methyl-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines occurs at the methyl group.     

Benzo[1,2-d: 3,4-d'] diimidazole derivatives

The structure and tautomerism of 2-amino-3, 6-dimethyl-, and 2-amino-3,6,7-trimethylbenzo[1,2-d: 3,4-d']diimidazoles were studied by means of IR and UV spectroscopy. It was found that they exist in the amino form in the crystalline state and in methanol solution.See [1] for communication III.Translated from Khimiya GeterotsiklicheskikhSoedinenii, No. 6, pp. 807–809, June, 1973     

Reactions of 1-Substituted Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines

Bromination of 1-oxo(imino, amino)benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines gave the corresponding 2-bromo derivatives. Acylation using the Vilsmeier complex in acetic anhydride gave the N-formyl and N-acetyl derivatives. The reaction of the amine with the Vilsmeier complex, acetyl acetone, ethyl acetoacetate, and 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran occurs at the amino group.     

Benzo[c]fused isothiazoles. I. synthesis of the angular benzo[c]bisisothiazoles and of the symmetrical benzo[c]trisisothiazole

The synthesis of all the possible angular benzo[c]bisisothiazoles ( 1, 2 and 3 ), and of the symmetrical benzo[c]trisisothiazole ( 4 ) are described. The pmr properties of these compounds are compared with analogous thiophenes and thiadiazoles     

One-pot synthesis of imidazo[1,2-b]pyrazole,imidazo[1,2-b]-1,2,4-triazole,imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine,imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine,imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazole,and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]benzimidazole derivatives

Hydrazonoyl bromides 1a-c react with 5-amino-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazole, 5-amino-1H-1,2,4-triazole, 2-aminopyridine, and 2-aminobenzimidazole to afford the corresponding imidazol[1,2-b]pyrazoles 10, imidazo[1,2-b]-1,2,4-triazoles 11, imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines 16, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines 17, and imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazoles 20, respectively. Compounds 1a-c reacted also with 2-methylthiobenzimidazole to give 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]benzimidazole derivatives 21. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Microwave-assisted combinatorial synthesis of polysubstituent imidazo[1,2-a]quinoline, pyrimido[1,2-a]quinoline and quinolino[1,2-a]quinazoline derivatives

A series of unusual fused heterocyclic compound derivatives, consisting of a pyridine and a imidazole or pyrimidine core, with a bridgehead nitrogen, were successfully synthesized by a microwave-assisted, three-component domino reaction of aldehydes, enaminones, and malononnitrile. In this one-pot reaction, up to five new bonds were formed accompanied by generating the lactam group. This method has the advantages of short synthetic route, operational simplicity, increased safety for small-scale high-speed synthesis, and minimal environment impact.     

New heterocyclic systems. Benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyrrole and benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2-f]pyrrolizidine derivatives

The synthesis of the polycyclic pyrrole acetic acids 9e, 13e and 13g by multistep processes from 1-bromo-4-phenylbutan-2-one ( 6c ) is reported. An instance of the use of the 2-chloroethyl moiety as a pyrrole nitrogen protecting group is described. The α-methylaminoketone ( 6e ) was synthesised by a novel two step process from 6c and methyl N-methylformimidate ( 12 ).
