Solvent-free synthesis of functionalized pyridine derivatives using Wells-Dawson heteropolyacid as catalyst

Wells-Dawson heteropolyacids (H₆P₂W₁₈O₆₂·24H₂O) were used as catalysts in the Hantzsch-like multicomponent condensation reaction with 3-formylchromones as aldehyde component, a β-ketoester and ammonium acetate, under solvent-free conditions at 80 °C. Although the desired products were obtained, functionalized pyridines were the main reaction product and became the alternative route to dihydropyridine ring formation. Based on the proposed mechanisms for the formation of each of the obtained products, the multicomponent reaction was modified to afford only the functionalized pyridines (60-99%). Our procedure represents a clean alternative for the synthesis of several highly functionalized pyridines.     

1H-Pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines: Synthesis and Biomedical Applications

Pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines are a group of heterocyclic compounds presenting two possible tautomeric forms: the 1H- and 2H-isomers. More than 300,000 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines have been described which are included in more than 5500 references (2400 patents) up to date. This review will cover the analysis of the diversity of the substituents present at positions N1, C3, C4, C5, and C6, the synthetic methods used for their synthesis, starting from both a preformed pyrazole or pyridine, and the biomedical applications of such compounds.

Novel synthesis of perfluoroalkylated indolizinylphosphonates via a DIPEA-promoted one-pot process

DIPEA-promoted one-pot synthesis of perfluoroalkylated indolizinylphosphonates by the reaction of pyridines 1, bromomethyl ketones 2 with perfluoroalkynylphosphonates 3 is described. This procedure is compatible with a broad range of functional groups in both pyridines and ketones with good yields. The reaction proceeds through a tandem CN bond formation followed by an intramolecular cyclization.     

Library‐directed Solution‐ and Solid‐phase Synthesis of 2,4‐Disubstituted Pyridines: One‐pot Approach through 6 π‐Azaelectrocyclization

An efficient one‐pot synthetic procedure for the synthesis of 2,4‐disubstituted pyridines has been successfully established. The method proceeds through a 6π‐azaelectrocyclization‐aromatization sequence. Using this method, a wide variety of pyridine structures substituted at the 2‐position have been rapidly constructed from vinyl stannanes, vinyl iodide, sulfonamide, and a palladium catalyst. The method was further applied to the solid‐phase synthesis wherein the use of a “traceless” sulfonamide linker enabled the rapid preparation of a small library of pyridines with high purity, without any chromatographic separation.     

Small‐Molecule Recognition for Controlling Molecular Motion in Hydrogen‐Bond‐Assembled Rotaxanes

Di(acylamino)pyridines successfully template the formation of hydrogen‐bonded rotaxanes through five‐component clipping reactions. A solid‐state study showed the participation of the pyridine nitrogen atom in the stabilization of the mechanical bond between the thread and the benzylic amide macrocycle. The addition of external complementary binders to a series of interlocked bis(2,6‐di(acylamino)pyridines) promoted restraint of the back and forward ring motion. The original translation can be restored through a competitive recognition event by the addition of a preorganized bis(di(acylamino)pyridine) that forms stronger ADA–DAD complexes with the external binders.     

A novel preparation of thiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines and the synthesis of some imidazo[4,5-c]pyridines and oxazolo[4,5-c]pyridines

Diethoxymethyl acetate was used to cyclize o-disubstituted aminopyridines to oxazolo[4,5-c]pyridines and imidazo[4,5-c]pyridines. All the possible imidazole-methylated imidazo[4,5-c]pyridines were prepared. A novel synthesis of 2-substituted thiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines and 4-amino-3-pyridinethiol was discovered.     

Selective formation of heteroaryl thioethers via a phosphonium ion coupling reaction

Heteroaryl thioethers, comprised of pyridines and diazines, are an important class of compounds with relevance to medicinal chemistry. Metal-catalyzed cross-couplings and S_NAr reactions are traditionally used to form C–S bonds in these systems but are limited by available halogenated precursors. An alternative approach is presented where pyridines and diazines are transformed into heterocyclic phosphonium salts and then C–S bonds are formed by adding thiolate nucleophiles. The process is 4-selective for pyridines, simple to execute and can be used to make derivatives of complex pharmaceuticals.     

Synthesis and solid state study of pyridine- and pyrimidine-based fragment libraries

A library of pyridines and pyrimidines has been synthesised in excellent yields employing microwave and flow chemistry methodologies. Work-up bottlenecks have been facilitated substantially by the use of supported reagents and many of the final compounds have been studied in the solid state by single crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Chichibabin pyridinium synthesis

Chichibabin pyridine synthesis involves the reaction of three aldehydes and ammonia to form 2,3,5-trisubstituted pyridines. This study examined the synthesis of tetrasubstituted pyridinium from aldehydes and an amine hydrochloride in the presence/absence of Pr(OTf)₃. Important insights into the reaction mechanisms of Chichibabin pyridinium synthesis were proposed through the investigation of reaction intermediates along with quantitative GC–MS analysis.     

Terminal Alkynes as One-Carbon Donors in [5+1] Heteroannulation: Synthesis of Pyridines via Ynimine Intermediates and Application in the Total Synthesis of Anibamine B

Transition-metal-catalyzed [4+2] heteroannulation of α,β-unsaturated oximes and their derivatives with alkynes has been developed into a powerful strategy for the synthesis of pyridines. It nevertheless lacks regioselectivity when unsymmetrically substituted alkynes are used. We report herein the unprecedented synthesis of polysubstituted pyridines by a formal [5+1] heteroannulation of two readily accessible building blocks. A copper-catalyzed aza-Sonogashira cross-coupling between β,γ-unsaturated oxime esters and terminal alkynes affords ynimines, which, without isolation, undergo an acid-catalyzed domino reaction involving ketenimine formation, 6π-electrocyclization and aromatization to afford pyridines. Terminal alkynes served as a one-carbon donor to the pyridine core in this transformation. Di- through pentasubstituted pyridines are accessible with complete regioselectivity and excellent functional-group compatibility. The first total synthesis of anibamine B, an indolizinium alkaloid with potent antiplasmodial activity, was accomplished featuring this reaction as a key step.     

THE CALCULATIOM OF CHEMXCAL SHIFTS IN SUBSTITOTED PYRIDINES

<正> The principle and method for the calculation of chemical shifts of substituted benzenes have been extended to calculation of the cheiiical shifts in substituted pyridines. We have set up a series of empirical parameters for calculation of the chemical shifts. The calculated results of 154 δ values frou 54 compounds show that the standard deviation between the calculated and the experimental values is 0 . 09 ppm. The combination of the coupling constants can be used to provide a criterion for the determination of molecular structure in substituted pyridines and to assign NMR parameters for the experiment of proton simulated spectra of substituted pyridines.

N-propargylic beta-enaminones: common intermediates for the synthesis of polysubstituted pyrroles and pyridines.

N-Propargylic beta-enaminones have been used as common intermediates for the synthesis of polysubstituted pyrroles and pyridines. Best results have been obtained using DMSO as solvent. In the presence of Cs(2)CO(3) N-propargylic beta-enaminones are cyclized to pyrroles in good to high yields, whereas omitting bases and using CuBr leads to the selective formation of pyridines.     

Studies on cycloimmonium ylids. Synthesis of some new 2,4,6-triaryl-substituted pyridines via pyridinium,picolinium and isoquinolinium ylids

Reaction of pyridinium phenacylids and their picolinium and isoquinolinium counterparts with substituted benzylideneacetophenones gave a wide variety of 2,4,6-triaryl-substituted pyridines which are expected to have some potential biological activities. Ammonium acetate in glacial acetic acid was used as the cyclization agent. The structures of resulting pyridines are supported by nmr and ir spectral data.     

Template-directed synthesis of macrocyclic aminopyridines: azacalix[n](2,6)pyridines (n = 3, 4)

Template-induced synthetic routes for azacalix[n](2,6)pyridines (n = 3, 4) have been elaborated. The proton and nickel ion served as the efficient template for the cyclization reactions, and the presence of the templates preferentially afforded the cyclic trimers and tetramers in moderate to good yields, respectively. The compatibility of the cyclic tetramer with nickel ion was also confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Synthesis,characterization and antioxidant activity of bis (arylsulfonylmethyl/arylaminosulfonylmethylazolyl) pyridines

A new class of bis(arylsulfonylmethylazolyl)pyridines and bis(arylaminosulfonylmethyl-azolyl)pyridines were synthesized from the synthetic intermediates methyl arylsulfonylacetic acid hydrazide and methyl arylaminosulfonylacetic acid hydrazide adopting a green methodology-ultrasonication. All the synthesized compounds were resulted in higher yield and in shorter reaction times. The spectral parameters such as IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass and microanalyzes were used to determine the structures of all the synthesized compounds and were assayed for antioxidant activity. The bis(arylaminosulfonylmethylazolyl)pyridines showed higher radical scavenging activity than the bis(arylsulfonylmethylazolyl)pyridines. Besides, unsubstituted, and methyl substituted compounds exhibited greater activity. Among all the tested compounds 8b and 11b were identified as potential antioxidants.     

Stannous chloride mediated one pot synthesis of functionalized indole-3-yl pyridines using 3-cyanoacetylindoles and 3-formylchromones

An efficient one-pot synthesis of functionalized indole-3-yl pyridines by condensation of 3-formylchromones, cyanoacetylindoles and ammonium acetate has been achieved. A series of 17 new compounds were synthesized and all of them were characterized by FT-IR and NMR. The crystal structure of a typical compound was determined by X-ray diffraction. A variety of substrates can participate in the process resulting in high purity and good yields, making this methodology suitable for library synthesis in drug discovery.     

Phosphorylated imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines

The reaction of phosphorus(III) halides with imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines in the presence of bases leads to the formation of 3-phosphorylated imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines. The reaction proceeds in high yield and requires no catalysts. In the compounds obtained, in contrast to phosphorylated indolizines, the phosphorus–heterocycle bond is stable and not cleaved by dry hydrogen chloride, alcohols, or water. Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with the phosphinic and phosphinous groups can be alkylated both at the phosphorus and at the nitrogen atom of the heterocycle, the alkylation direction being dependent on the strength of the alkylation reagent used. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
