STUDIES ON BENZO[C]THIOPHENES

Abstract

Attempts for the synthesis of 5-tert-butylbenzo[c]thiophene 1c are described. The preparation of pure 1c by heating of sulfoxide 5 with alumina failed. However 1c could be generated in situ and trapped with N-phenylmaleimide 6. Under the conditions of mass spectroscopic measurements the cycload-ducts of 1c with 6 underwent a retro-Diels-Alder reaction which proves the existence of free 1c in the gas-phase.     

Fused quinoline heterocycles X. First synthesis of new four heterocyclic ring systems 10-amino-6,9-disubstituted-[1,2,4]triazino[4′,3′:1,5]pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinoline derivatives

A novel, simple, and efficient synthetic methodology for the synthesis of hitherto unreported tetracyclic 10-amino-6,9-disubstituted-[1,2,4]triazino[4′,3′:1,5]pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolines, in one step, has been developed by coupling of various active methylene compounds with diazotized heterocyclic amines. Reacting 2,4-dichloroquinoline-3-carbonitrile (1) with cyanoacetic acid hydrazide (2) in the presence of triethylamine in refluxing MeOH gave the unexpected 3-amino-4-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinoline (4), instead of the desired tetracyclic ring system 3 (Scheme 1). Refluxing 4 with excess of cyclic secondary amines 5a–c in boiling dimethylformamide yielded the corresponding 4-amino-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolines 6a–c. Diazotization of compounds 4 and 6a–c with sodium nitrite and concentrated HCl at ?5?°C gave the corresponding diazonium salts 17a–d, which were then subjected to couple with different active methylene nitriles, namely, 2-cyanothioacetamide (12), ethyl cyanoacetate (13), malononitrile (14), 2-cyanoacetamide (15), and 2-cyano-N-phenylacetamide (16), in aqueous ethanol containing sodium acetate as a buffer solution. The coupling reaction of diazonium salts 17 with 12, 13, and 14 leading to the novel perianellated tetracyclic ring system 10-amino-6,9-disubstituted-[1,2,4]triazino[4′,3′:1,5]pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolines 19, 23, and 27, respectively, in one step, is described for the first time. On the other hand, coupling reaction of diazonium salt 17a with both 15 and 16 yielded the previously unknown tetracyclic 10-amino-6-chloro-[1,2,4]triazino[4′,3′:1,5]pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinoline-9-carboxamides 28a and 28b, respectively (Scheme 6). No chromatographic techniques have been used for the purification of the products. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were unambiguously confirmed by spectroscopic and analytical techniques.

4-(3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-6-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2-di hydro-pyridine-3-carbonitrile (1) reacted with ethyl chloroacetate (2) in ethanolic sodium acetate solution to yield the corresponding ethyl (3-cyanopyridin-2-ylsulphanyl)acetate derivative 3. Intramolecular cyclization of compound 3 was achieved by its heating in DMF containing potassium carbonate to afford the corresponding ethyl 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate derivative 4 which reacted with hydrazine hydrate in refluxing pyridine to yield the starting material 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carbohydrazide derivative 7. Compound 7 reacted with different reagents such as triethylorthoformate, formic acid, acetic acid and acetic anhydride to afford the target molecules pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives 8–10, 12 and 13 in good to excellent yields. On the other hand, pyridine-2(1H)-thione derivative 1 reacted with hydrazine hydrate in refluxing pyridine to give the other starting material 3-amino-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine derivative 20 which reacted with acetylacetone under reflux to afford the target molecule pyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidine derivative 21 in a good yield. The structures of target molecules were elucidated using elemental analyses and spectral data.     

Synthesis of some novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolines and their fused derivatives

New pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline-3-carbonitriles 4a,b were obtained via cyclocondensation of 5-amino-3-cyanomethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (1) with enaminones of 1,3-cyclohexanedione derivatives 2a,b in refluxing glacial acetic acid. Condensation of compounds 4a,b with various aromatic aldehydes furnished the corresponding arylidene derivatives 6a–j. On the other hand, condensation of 4a,b with o-hydroxybenzaldehydes yielded the polyheterocyclic compounds 10a–h. Coupling of compounds 4a,b with aryldiazonium chlorides led to formation of 2-arylhydrazono derivatives 12a–h. Also, reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate, followed by addition of ethyl chloroacetate and chloroacetonitrile, afforded the polyheterocyclic compounds based on pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline core. The reaction of compounds 4a,b with phenyl isothiocyanate and elemental sulfur gave the thiazole-2-thione derivatives 25a,b. The reaction of enamines of compounds 4a,b with each of hydrazine hydrate and guanidine hydrochloride afforded pyrazolo[4″,3″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-8-ones 30a,b and pyrimido[5″,4″:5′,6′]pyrido[4′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-9(10H)-ones 33a,b, respectively. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by elemental analyses and spectral data. The plausible mechanisms have been postulated to account for their formation.

Compounds 4a–c condensed with dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal (DMF-DMA) to afford 3-{[(N,N-dimethylamino)methylene]amino}thieno[2, 3-b]- pyridine derivatives 6a–c. Moreover, compounds 4a–c and 6a–c reacted with different reagents and afforded the pyrido[3′,2′:4, 5]thieno[3, 2-d]pyrimidine derivatives 10a–d, 11a–c, 12a,b, 14a,b, 17, and 19. In addition, pyrazolo[3, 4-b]pyridine derivative 20 (formed via the reaction of 1 with hydrazine hydrate) reacted with ethylisothiocyanate yielded the thiourea derivative 21. Compound 21 reacted with α-halocarbonyl compounds to give the 3-[(3H-thiazol-2-ylidene)amino]-1H-pyrazolo[3, 4-b]pyridine derivatives 23a–c, 25, and 27a,b.

Alkylation of 3 under an anhydrous basic conditions afforded 4a–i. The alkylation of 3 in aqueous basic solution afforded 3-(alkylmercapto)imidazo[1,5-b]isoquinoline-1,5-diones (7a,b). Reactions of the aromatic amino acids 9a,b and 12 with 7a afforded 2-(2H-1,5 dioxoimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinazolin-3-ylideneamino)benzoic acids (10a, b) and 3-(2H-1,5-dioxoimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinazolin-3-ylideneamino)2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid (13), which were then cyclyzed by heating in acetic anhydride to afford 15H-isoquino[2′,3′ :3,4] imidazo[2,1-b]quinazoline-7,13,15-triones (11a,b) and 14H-isoquino[2′,3′:3,4]imidazo[2,1-b]benzo[g]quinazoline-8,14,16-trione (14).

New isothiocyanato liquid crystals containing thieno[3,2-b]thiophene central core

New isothiocyanato liquid crystal (LC) materials based on thieno[3,2-b]thiophene core have been synthesised and characterised. Their mesomorphic and physical properties were evaluated. The results indicate that most of the new compounds exhibit only enantiotropic smectic A phases with high clearing points, and the difluorinated compounds (A3 and A6), in particular, also display a stable nematic phase with low melting points. Compared with the corresponding biphenyl and thiophene-phenyl analogues, these thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-based compounds possess increased birefringence (the highest value found to be 0.40) and mesogenic phase intervals. These new thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-based LCs exhibit a high birefringence and a high clearing point and are of potential use as components of high birefringence mixtures.

Synthesis and characterization of copolymers based on cyclopenta[c]thiophene and bithiazole and their transistor properties

Two new copolymers, P1 and P2 , containing 5,5‐bis(dodecyloxymethyl)?5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐cyclopenta[c]thiophene (DCPT) or DCPT‐based thiophene trimer (as donor) and 4,4′‐dibutyl‐2,2′‐bithiazole (BTz, as weak acceptor) have been synthesized. To reduce the steric hindrance and enhance the conjugation, the thiophene spacers have been incorporated between DCPT and BTz in P2 , which play an important role in maintaining the side chain ordering and π‐stacking interactions. Both the polymers showed π‐stacking with similar distances (～0.37 nm) but with larger extent in P2 . Combination of DCPT with BTz has resulted in low lying HOMO levels for the resulting polymers with significant improvement in oxidative stability. P1 and P2 showed p‐type mobility of 0.03 and 0.052 cm² V^?1 s^?1 with current on/off ratio (I_on/I_off) in the order of 10⁴ and 10³, respectively. These differences in characteristics may be attributed to the variation in donor (D)–acceptor (A) property, supramolecular ordering, extent of π‐stacking, and film microstructure. The polymers were further characterized by GPC, TGA, DSC, PXRD, cyclic voltammetry, and atomic force microscopy. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym. Chem. 2013, 51, 4481–4488
