Reactions of Chiral 2-(tert-Butyl)-2H,4H-1,3-dioxin-4-ones Bearing Functional Groups in the 6-Position and Diastereoselective Catalytic Hydrogenation to cis-2,6-Disubstituted 1,3-Dioxan-4-ones

(R)-5-Bromo-6-(bromomethyl)-2-(tert-butyl)-2H,4H-1,3-dioxin-4-one ( 2 ) derived from (R)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid is used for substitutions and chain elongations at the side-chain C-atom in the 6-position of the heterocycle (→ 3–6 , 10–13 ). Subsequent simultaneous reductive debromination and double-bond hydrogenation (Pd/C,H₂)occurs with essentially complete diastereoselectivity (>98% ds), with H transfer from the face opposite to the t-Bu group (→ 15–20 , Table 1). Hydrolytic cleavages of the dioxanones then lead to enantiomerically pure β-hydroxy-acid derivatives (overall self-reproduction of the stereogenic center of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid or alkylation in the 4-position of this acid with preservation of configuration).     

Quinazolines and 1,4-benzodiazepines. XLVI. Photochemistry of nitrones and oxaziridines

The cyclic nitrones 7-chloro-1,3-dihydro-5-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one 4-oxide ( 5a ) and 1,3-dihydro-7-methylthio-5-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one 4-oxide ( 5b ) are photoisomerized to readily isolable oxaziridines, 7-chloro-4,5-epoxy-5-phenyl-1,3,4–5-tetrahydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one ( 6a ) and 4,5-epoxy-5-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-methylthio-2H-1,4-benzo-diazepin-2-one ( 6b ). Oxaziridine 6b upon further irradiation gave ring expansion and ring contraction products, 4,6-dihydro-2-phenyl-9-methylthio-5H-1,3,6-benzoxadiazocin-5-one ( 7b ) and 4-benzoyl-3,4-dihydro-6-methylthioquinoxalin-2(1H)-one ( 8b ) respectively. The ring contraction product, 4-benzoyl-6-chloro-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-one ( 8a ), was obtained from irradiation of oxaziridine 6a .     

A facile and novel synthesis of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones

A new and convenient procedure for the synthesis of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones and their derivatives is described. In the first scheme 5-acetyl-6-[2-(dimethylamino)ethenyl]-1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarbonitrile ( 4 ) obtained by the reaction of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal with 5-acetyl-1,2-dihydro-6-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarbonitrile ( 3 ) was cyclized to 1,2-dihydro-5-methyl-2-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine-3-carbonitrile ( 5 ) by the action of ammonium acetate. Thermal decarboxylation of acid 7 obtained from the hydrolysis of nitrile 5 led to a mixture of 5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 8 ) and its dimer 9 . Hydrazide 11 obtained from nitrile 5 in two steps was converted to 3-amino-5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 12 ) by the Curtius rearrangement. The amino group of 12 was readily replaced by treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide to yield 3-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 13 ). In the second scheme, Michael reaction of enamines of type 20 with methyl propiolate, followed by ring closure gave 5-acyl(aroyl)-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinones ( 21 ) which in turn were treated with Bredereck's reagent to produce 5-acyl(aroyl)-6-[2-(dimethylamino)ethenyl]-2(1H)-pyridinones ( 22 ). Treatment of 22 with ammonium acetate led to the formation of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones 23 .     

Reactions of o-aminonitriles with isocyanates. 1. A two-step synthesis of 2,6-dihydroimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-5-(3H)one

The reaction of anthranilonitrile with 2-chloroethyl isocyanate yields 2-[3-(2-chloroethyl)ureido]benzo-nitrile ( 6 ) which, upon heating, or treatment with base, undergoes a double cyclization to form 2,6-dihydroimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-5-(3H) one ( 8 ) in excellent yield. When heated with hydrochloric acid, 6 is converted initially into 2-(2-chloroethylamino)-4H-[3,1]benzoxazin-4-one ( 18 ) and further into 3-(2-chloroethyl)-2,4-(1H,3H)quinazolinedione ( 15 ). The acid-catalyzed reaction of 2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one ( 14 ) with nucleophilic reagents yields 3-substituted 2,4-(1H,3H)quinazolinediones.     

Ringtransformationen von 3-substituiertem 5-Trifluormethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-on mit Nucleophilen

Ring Transformations of 3-Substituted 5-Trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one with Nucleophiles The 3-chlormethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolone 3 undergoes a ring transformation to 3-acylated 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 4 with many nucleophiles. Upon formal replacement of the chloromethyl group in the 3-position of 3 by an extended bromoalkyl chain (→9a-c) , the reaction with nucleophiles yields 4-acylated 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazines 10 (from 9a ), 4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothiadiazepines 13 (from 9b ) and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazocines 14 (from 9c ) by ring enlargement. The 3-propargyl-thiadiazolone 17 rearranges with nucleophiles to 4-acylated 6-methylidene-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazines 18 . The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy.     

1,2,4-Triazines. 8. Reduction of 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones with sodium borohydride. Regioselective preparation of dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones

Reduction of 3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1a ) with sodium borohydride afforded 3-methylthio-1,6-dihydrotriazin-5(4H)-one ( 2b ) selectively. 3-Methylthio-6-t-butyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 1d ) reacted with sodium borohydride to give mainly 6-t-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one ( 3d ). The reaction of various 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-ones with sodium borohydride and the influence of bulkiness and electronic effect of the substituents at the 3- and 6-positions upon the product ratio, are also discussed.     

Directed regiospecificity of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2-diazopropane to 4- and 5-substituted pyridazin-3(2H)-ones

6-Methoxy-2-methylpyridazin-3(2H)-one ( 1 ) gave with 2-diazopropane ( 8 ) a mixture of 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]-pyridazin-4(5H)-one derivative 12 , as the main product, and -7(6H)-one derivative 10 , as the minor product. On the other hand, 4-substituted pyridazin-3(2H)-ones 2, 3 , and 4 gave 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7(6H)-one 10 , exclusively, while 5-substituted pyridazin-3(2H)-ones 5, 6 , and 7 produced only the isomeric 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-H]pyridazin-4(5H)-one 12 . The 5-phenylsulfonyl derivative 13 gave with 8 by elimination of a molecule of nitrogen, followed by rearrangement, 1,2-diazepine derivative 15 and with an excess of 8 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2]diazepine derivative 16. 1 ,2-Dimethylpyridazine-3,6-(1H,2H)-dione and its derivatives 18 and 19 produced 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazine-4,7(5H,6H)-dione derivative 23 , while from 17 and 1-diazoindane ( 24 ) the spiro compound 27 was obtained. The 1,2-dihydro and 3a,7a-dihydro intermediates 21 and 25 were isolated.     

Synthesis and microbial screening of 8-(benzyloxy)-5-(2-[1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]thiazol-4-yl)quinolin-2(1H)-one derivatives

The present investigation describe the synthesis of 8-(benzyloxy)-5-(2-[1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]thiazol-4-yl)quinolin-2(1H)-one derivatives. Quinolin-8-ol was transformed by five step synthetic procedures into 8-Benzyloxy-5-(2-bromo-acetyl)-1H-quinolin-2-one. Subsequently, 8-Benzyloxy-5-(2-bromo-acetyl)-1H-quinolin-2-one condensed with 1,3-Diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbothioic acid amide in the presence of acetonitrile to afford 8-(benzyloxy)-5-(2-[1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]thiazol-4-yl)quinolin-2(1H)-one derivatives. Synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Most of the synthesized compounds are found to be active against tested bacterial strains and fungal strain.     

1,3-Dioxanone Derivatives from β-Hydroxy-carboxylic Acids and Pivalaldehyde. Versatile Building Blocks for Syntheses of Enantiomerically Pure Compounds. A Chiral Acetoacetic Acid Derivative Preliminary Communication

(R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid (from the biopolymer PHB) and pivalaldehyde give the crystalline cis - or (R,R)-2-(tert-butyl)-6-methyl-1,3-dioxan-4-one ( 1a ), the enolate of which is stable at low temperature in THF solution and can be alkylated diastereoselectively ( →3, 4, 5 , and 7 ). Phenylselenation and subsequent elimination give an enantiomerically pure enol acetal 10 of aceto-acetic acid. Some reactions of 10 have been carried out, such as Michael addition (→ 11 ), alkylation on the CH₃ substituent (→ 13 ), hydrogenation of the C?C bond (→ 1a ) and photochemical cycloaddition (→ 16 ). The overall reactions are substitutions on the one stereogenic center of the starting β-hydroxy acid without racemization and without using a chiral auxiliary.     

Synthesis of 2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazines

The synthesis of the first [1,3,5]triazine carbon linked nucleosides are reported. 4-Amino-6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazin-2(1H)-one ( 8 ), an analog of 5-azacytidine and pseudoisocytidine was prepared. 2,5-Anhydro-D-allonamidine hydrochloride ( 3 ) was condensed with dimethyl cyanoiminodithiocarbonate ( 4 ) to give 4-methylthio-6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazin-2-amine ( 5 ). Compound 5 was reacted with m-chloroperbenzoic acid to give 4-methylsulfinyl-6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazin-2-amine ( 6 ). Displacement of the methyl sulfinyl with the appropriate nucleophile gave 6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazine-2,4-diamine ( 7 ), 4-amino-6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazin-2(1H)-one ( 8 ), and 4-amino-6-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazine-2(1H)-thione ( 9 ). Dethiation of compound 5 with Raney nickel gave 4-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)[1,3,5]triazin-2-amine ( 10 ). The crystal structure of 7 was determined by single crystal X-ray.     

Photochemische Reaktionen. 87. Mitteilung. Zur Photolyse von 9-Oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-2-on

Photolysis of Bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-2-one. Disproportionations, the secondary processes available to the acyl-alkyl biradical b (X(9) = 0) formed from 9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-2-ones a (X(9) = 0) in a primary photochemical process by α-cleavage (Norrish type I cleavage) were studied. Special attention was paid to the selectivity between the two possible H-abstractions: the one at C(3) (→ ketene c , X(9)= 0) and the other one at C(8) (→ alkenal d , X(9) = 0) and to the selectivity of the H-abstraction at a definite methylene group (C(3) or C(8)). In the case of ketene formation (→ c , X(9) = 0) the specificity of the insertion of the migrating H-atom at C(1) was studied. endo-6-Hydroxy-9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-2-one ( 6 ) and derivatives of it ( 7, 8, 16, 17, 19, 21, 30 and 38 ) as well as exo-6-hydroxy-9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-2-one ( 41 ) and its derivative 42 were used as substrates. UV.-irradiation of 6 in benzene yielded 1,5-dioxa-2-cis-decalone ( 44 ) by way of a ketene g (R = H) as demonstrated by the photolysis of 7 (→ 45 ), 8 (→ 43 ), and 17 (→ 47 ). Specific labellings with deuterium proved that H-abstraction occurs intramolecularly at C(3) (e.g. 16 → 54 ; 6 + 16 → 44 + 54 ), that one of the H-atoms at C(3) migrates specifically to C(1) ( 21 → 55 ; 19 → 56 ), endo-H–C(3) being favored by a factor of 6. The abstraction showed an unexpected primary isotope effect of about 2. UV-irradiation of 41 in benzene yielded in addition to the expected 1,5-dioxa-2-trans-clecalone ( 63 ) about 3% of an isomeric compound 67 which probably results from H-abstraction at C(8) (→ alkenal 65) followed by cyclisation.     

Pyrrolopyridazine nucleosides. The synthesis of certain 1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-ones

Nucleosides of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-ones were prepared by the single-phase sodium salt glycosylation of appropriately functionalized pyrrole precursors. The glycosylation of the sodium salt of ethyl 4,5-dichloro-2-formyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate ( 4 ), or its azomethino derivative 7 , with 1-bromo-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose in acetonitrile afforded the corresponding substituted pyrrole nucleosides ethyl 4,5-dichloro-2-formyl-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate ( 5 ) and ethyl 4,5-dichloro-2-phenylazomethino-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate ( 8 ), respectively. The latter, upon treatment with hydrazine, afforded the annulated product 2,3-dichloro-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-one ( 6 ), in good yield. The unsubstituted analog 1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4(5H)-one ( 9 ), was obtained upon catalytic dehalogenation of 6 . This report represents the first example of the synthesis of nucleosides of pyrrolopyridazines.     

4H-Chromenone Glycosides from Eranthis hyemalis (L.) SALISBURY

Investigation of the tubers of Eranthis hyemalis (Ranunculaceae) afforded six chromenone glycosides. Their structures have been elucidated mainly by spectroscopic (FAB-MS, 2D-NMR techniques) and chemical methods (acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis) as 9-{[(β-D -glucopyranosyl)oxy]methyl}-8,11-dihydro-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-pyrano[2,3-g][1]benzoxepin-4-one ( 1 ), 9-{[(β-D -gentiobiosyl)oxy]methyl}-8,11-dihydro-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-pyrano[2,3-g][1]benzoxepin-4-one( 2 ), 9-{[(β-D -glucopyranosvl)oxy]melhyl}-8,11-dihydro-5-hydroxy-2-(hydroxy-methyl)-4H-pyrano[2,3-g][1]benzoxepin-4-one( 3 ), 8-{(2E)-4-[(β-D -glucopyranosyl)oxy]-3-methylbut-2-enyl}-5,7-dihydroxy-2-methyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one ( 4 ), 8-{(2E)-4-[(β-D -glucopyranosyi)oxy]-3-methylbut-2-enyl}-5,7-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one ( 5 ), and 7-{[(β-D -glucopyranosy1)oxy]methyl}-2,3-dihydro-2-(l-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4-methoxy-5H-furo[3,2-g][1]benzopyran-5-one ( 6 ). Compound 2 exhibited negative inotropic activity.     

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 .     

Synthesis of optically active 2-benzyldihydrobenzopyrans for the hypoglycemic agent englitazone

Two syntheses of some optically active 2-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyrans and benzopyran-4-ones are presented. An asymmetric synthesis starting from D- and L-phenylalanine was used to provide both enantiomers of 2-benzyl-6-(methoxycarbonyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyran-4-one 19. Phenylalanine was diazotized in aqueous sulfuric acid to 2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionic acid 6 which was converted in four steps to 1-bromo-2-(4-methoxycarbonylphenoxy)-3-phenylpropane 11. (4R,S)-Benzamido-2-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-6-(methoxycarbonyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-carboxylic acid 16 was prepared from 11 by amidoalkylation with α-hydroxyhippuric acid in methanesulfonic acid solution followed by spiroalkylation to (4R,S)-2-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-6-(methoxycarbonyl)spiro[4H-benzopyran-4,4′-2′-phenyloxazolidin]-5′-one 15. After the phenyloxazolidin-5-one 15 was hydrolyzed to the spirobenzamido carboxylic acid 16 , oxidative decarboxylation with sodium hypochlorite yielded optically active 2-benzyl-6-(methoxycarbonyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyran-4-one 19. The ketone in 19 was reduced by hydrogenation over palladium on carbon to a methylene group and the ester was converted to the aldehyde to give both isomers of the desired intermediate 2-benzyl-6-(formyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyran 25. The second synthesis relied on an enzymatic hydrolysis of ethyl 2,3-dihydrobenzopyran-2-carboxylate 27 with the lipase from P. fluorescens to provide the desired 2R-ester. The ester group in (R)- 27 was converted to the triflate (R)- 29. Displacement of the triflate group with phenylmagnesium bromide and cuprous bromide as catalyst gave 2R-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyran (R)- 30. Formylation of (R)- 30 provided 2R-benzyl-6-(formyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-benzopyran (R)- 25 identical with that from the first synthesis. These optically active intermediates are used in the preparation of the hypoglycemic agent englitazone.     

Arbeiten über Phosphorsäure- und Thiophosphorsäureester mit einem heterocyclischen Substituenten. 7. Mitteilung. Thio- und Dithiophosphorsäureester von der Art des GS 13005 mit einem analogen oder homologen heterocyclischen Ring

To complete results presented in this and in previous papers of this series as well as published in patents of other authors a review is given on known and new variations of the heterocyclic moiety in GS 13005 type thio- and dithiophosphoric acid esters ( 1, 2 ) by modification of the 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one ring 5 and by its replacement by analogue five- and homologue six-membered rings. Among new esters of this type some containing the pyrazolinone ring 3 or a 2-alkoxy-4H, 6H-1,3,4-thiadiazin-5-one ring 10 (homologue of the original 5-methoxy-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one ring in GS 13005) show no remarkable pesticidal activity, some others containing a pyrazolering 7 or a 3(2H)-pyridazinonc ring 8 are moderately to highly active but toxic to inauinials in the same proportion. Attempts to prepare seven-membered 2-alkoxy- and 2-alkylthio-6,7-dihydro-l, 3,4-thiadiazepin-S(4H)-ones 11 , Z-rnethoxy-l,3,4-thiadiazepin-S(4H)-one 12 (ring vinylogue of the original 5-methoxy-l,3,4-thiadIazol-2(3H)-one ring in GS 13005) and its 7-methyl-derivative have been unsuccessful due to unexpected side reactions, such as: five-ring closure of 3-(3-chloropropionyl)-thio- and -dithiocarbazic acid esters 22 to pyrazolidinone derivatives 23 , pyrazolinone ring closure of a 3-(acetoacety1)-thiocarbazic acid O-methyl ester derivative 26 , bromine attack on sulfur in 3-(2-alkenoyl)-thiocarbazic O-methyl esters 29 instead of bromine addition at the double bond, and halogen splitting off without ring closure in 3-(2,3-dihalogeno-alkanoyl) -thiocarbazic O-methyl esters 30 prepared by acylation of thiocarbazic acid O-methyl ester with dihalogeno-alkanoyl-chlorides.     

Preparation of novel heterocyclic systems from isatoic anhydrides

Isatoic anhydride ( 1a ) and 5-chloroisatoic anhydride ( 1b ) were treated with 2-(1-methylhydrazino)ethanol ( 2 ) to produce 2-aminobenzoic acid 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-methylhydrazide ( 3a ) and its 5-chloro analog 3b , respectively. Treatment of 3a and 3b with carbon disulfide gave, respectively, 2,3-dihydro-3-[(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamino]-2-thioxo-4-(1H)quinazolinone ( 4a ) and its 6-chloro analog 4b . Compounds 4a and 4b afforded 5,6-dihydro-5-methyl-2-thioxo-4H,8H-[1,3,5,6]oxathiadiazocino[4,5-b]quinazolin-8-one ( 5a ) and its 10-chloro analog 5b , respectively, upon treatment with thiophosgene. Compound 5a could be produced directly from 3a and thiophosgene. Treatment of 4a and 4b with trifluoroacetic anhydride followed by potassium carbonate gave 3,4-dihydro-4-methyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]thiadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 7a ) and its 8-chloro analog 7b , respectively. Treatment of 4a with thionyl chloride also gave 7a , but 4b and thionyl chloride afforded a mixture of 7b and 8-chloro-3,4-dihydro-4-methyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]oxadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 10 ). The dimethyl analogs of 4a and 4b ( 13a and 13b ) upon treatment with thiophosgene afforded 3,4-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-2H,6H-[1,3,4]oxadiazino[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one ( 14a ) and its 8-chloro analog 14b , respectively.     

Novel heterocycles. Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide and related compounds

The reaction of 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride ( 5 ) with 1-methyl-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 4 ) gave the O-benzoyl compound, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoate ( 6 ), which rearranged to give the C-benzoyl isomer, [2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl] (4-hydroxy-1-mefhyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3-yl)methanone ( 7 ). The O-cinnamoyl compound 13 that resulted from the addition of 2,4-dichlorocinnamoyl chloride ( 11 ) to compound 4 rearranged to give the C-cinnamoyl compound, 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3yl)-2-propen-1-one ( 15 ). On the other hand, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 3-phenyl-2-propenoate ( 19 ) (from cinnamoyl chloride ( 17 ) and compound 4 ) rearranged to give 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide ( 21 ), an example of a hitherto unknown ring system. Additional examples of this novel heterocycle were prepared from 1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 23 ) and 1-methyl-1H-thieno[3,2-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 8 ).     

Studies in spiroheterocycles,Part XV. Investigation of the reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)-indol-2-ones with thiourea and urea derivatives

The reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)indol-2-one 1 with thiourea and urea derivatives has been investigated. Reaction of 1 with thiourea and urea in ethanolic potassium hydroxide media leads to the formation of spiro-2-indolinones 2a-f in 40–50% yield and a novel tetracyclic ring system 4,5-cycloalkyl-1,3-diazepino-[4,5-b]indole-2-thione/one 3a-f in 30–35% yield. 3-(2-Oxocyclopentylidene)indol-2-one afforded 5′,6′-cyclopenta-2′-thioxo/ oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′(3′H)pyrimidin]-2(1H)-ones 2a,b and 3-(2-oxocyclohexylidene)indol-2-one gave 2′,4′a,5′,6′,7′,8′- hexahydro-2′-thioxo/oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′ (3′H)-quinazolin]-2(1H)-ones 2c-f . Under exactly similar conditions, reaction of 1 with fluorinated phenylthiourea/cyclohexylthiourea/phenylurea gave exclusively spiro products 2g-1 in 60–75% yield. The products have been characterized by elemental analyses, ir pmr. ¹⁹F nmr and mass spectral studies.     

Synthesis via pummerer intermediates. II.. Disproportionation reactions of 3-(methylsulfinyl)chromones and 3-(methyl-sulfinyl)quinolinones with hydrochloric acid

Sulfoxides ( 1 and 10 ) gave oxidation-reduction products when treated with 5N hydrochloric acid. 8-Methoxy-3-(methylsulfinyl)-4H-benzopyran-4-one (1) gave 8-methoxy-3-(methylthio)-4H-1-benisopyran-4-one ( 4 ) and 8-methoxy-3-(methylsulfonyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one ( 5 ), whereas 1-melhyl-3-(methylsulfinyl)-4(1H)quinolinone ( 10 ) gave 1-methyl-3-(methylthio)-4(1H)-quinolinone ( 12 ) and 1-methyl-4(1H)-quinolinone ( 13 ).
