All of the possible isomeric monoaminobenzo-2,1,3-selenadiazoles are formed in the reaction of benzo-2,1,3-selenadizaole 4- or 5-irethyl-, or 5,6-dimethylbenzo 2,1,3-selenadiazoles with hydroxylaminesulfate in concentrated sulfuric acid.See [1] for communication LXV.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 328–330, March, 1972.     

Investigations on 2, 1, 3-thia- and selenadiazoles

Nitration and nitrosation of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole gives 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-7-nitro-and 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-7-nitrosobenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazoles. Oxidation of the latter, or of 4,7-diamino-5-methylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole gives 5-methyl-4,7-dihydroxy-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole, forming derivatives with sodium bisulfite or hydroxylamine, and reduced by sodium dithionite to 5-methyl-4, 7-dihydroxybenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole. The latter is also obtained by diazotizing 5-methyl-4-hydroxy-7-aminobenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole, and decomposing the diazonium salt. Nitration of 4-ethoxybenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole with sodium ethoxide gives 4-ethoxy-7-aminobenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole, acetylated to 4-ethoxy-7-acetaminobenzo-2, 1, 3-thiadiazole.For Part XXXVII see [1].     

Researches on 2,1,3-thia-and selenadiazoles

Chloromethylation of 4- and 5-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles with dichlorodimethyl ether in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride gives 4-chloro-7-chloromethyl- and 5-chloro-4-chloromethylbenzo-2, 1,3-thiadiazoles respectively. Reductive scission followed by treatment with thionyl chloride converts them to 4-chloro-7-methyl- and 5-chloro-4-methylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles; Chlorination of the latter gives 4-methyl-5,7-dichlorobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. Replacement of the chlorine in the chloromethyl groups gives 4-chloro-7-hydrosymethyl-,5-chloro-4-hydroxymethyl-, 4-chloro-7-cyanomethyl-,4-chloro-7-carboxymethyl-,5-chloro-4-carboxymethylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles. Reductive scission of 4-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-thidiazole followed by treatment with sodium selenite gives 4-chlorobenzo-2,1,3-selenadiazole.Part XLIII see [1].     

Studies in the field of 2,1,3-thia- and -selenadiazoles

The results of studies on 2,1,3-thiadiazole, benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole, benzo-2,1,3-selenadiazole, and their derivatives by chemical, physicochemical, and physical methods give no grounds for assuming that they have a quinoid structure. These results permit the statement that these heterocycles containing quatervalent sulfur or selenium are typical heteroaromatic systems satisfying Hückel's (4n+2) rule.For part LV, see [1].     

Investigations in the field of 2,1,3-thiadiazole and 2,1,3-selenadiazole

The action of sodiomalonic ester on 4-bromomethylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole forms a malonate which is converted by acid hydrolysis into 4-(-carboxyethyl)benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. When this reaction is carried out with 5-bromomethylbenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole, mono- and disubstituted malonic esters are formed the acid hydrolysis of which gives the corresponding acids. The nitration of 4-and 5-(-carboxyethyl)benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles forms, respectively, 4-(-carboxyethyl)-5,7-dinitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and 5-(-carboxyethyl)4-nitrobenzo-2,1, 3-thiadiazole. The reaction of 4-bromomethylbenzo-2,1, 3-thiadiazole with potassium cyanide forms two products: 4-cyanomethylbenzo-2,1, 3-thiadiazole and 1,2-di(benzo-2,1, 3-thiadiazole-4-yl)-2-cyanoethane.For part LVIII, see [1].     

Researches on 2,1,3-thia- and selenadiazole XLV. Nitration of 4-hydroxy- and 4-ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoIe

Nitration of 4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole under conditions generally used for phenols, gave a high yield of 4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. The latter is readily reduced to 4-hydroxy-S-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole which on treatment with orthoformic ester gives oxazolo [5,4-e]benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. 4-Ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole is nitrated under similar conditions, giving a high yield of a mixture of equal quantities of 4-ethoxy-S-nitro- and 4-ethoxy-7-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole.     

Researches on 2,1,3-thia- and selenadiazole XLV. Nitration of 4-hydroxy- and 4-ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoIe

Nitration of 4-hydroxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole under conditions generally used for phenols, gave a high yield of 4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. The latter is readily reduced to 4-hydroxy-S-aminobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole which on treatment with orthoformic ester gives oxazolo [5,4-e]benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole. 4-Ethoxybenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole is nitrated under similar conditions, giving a high yield of a mixture of equal quantities of 4-ethoxy-S-nitro- and 4-ethoxy-7-nitrobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole.For Part XLIV see [1].     

Investigation of 2, 1, 3-thia- and 2, 1, 3 selenadiazoles

The nitration of naphtho[1,2-d][2,1,3]thiadiazole under the conditions that are normally used for aromatic compounds gives a mixture of 6- and 9-nitronaphthothiadiazoles, which can be reduced to 6- and 9-amino derivatives, respectively. 6-Hydroxynaphthothiadiazole is obtained from 6-aminonaphthothiadiazole by the Sandmeyer reaction, while 8-hydroxynaphthothiadiazole is converted to the 8-amino derivative under the conditions of the Bucherer reaction. 4-Carboxy-5-(o-carboxyphenyl)-2,1,3-thiadiazole was obtained by the oxidation of naphtho[1,2-d][2,1,3]-thiadiazole with a potassium dichromate-dilute sulfuric acid mixture.See [1] for communication LXVI.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1496–1502, November, 1972.     

Aryleneazachalcogenenes. 2. Photoelectron spectra and electron structures of benzo-2,1,3-thia- and-selenadiazoles and their perfluoro derivatives

The He(I) photoelectron spectra of benzo-2,1,3-thia- and -selenadiazoles and their perfluoro derivatives were measured and interpreted on the basis of calculations by the MNDO method, the -fluoro effect, and an analysis of the vibrational structures and relative intensities of the bands. It was observed that replacement of the sulfur atom by a selenium atom leads to only slight changes in the ionization energies of the MO. This confirms the previous conclusion that replacement of one chalcogen by another has a small effect on the -electron structures of the molecules of these heteroaromatic compounds.See [1] for Communication 1.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 563–567, April, 1991.     

An improved procedure for the nitration of benzo‐2,1,3‐selenadiazoles and their reduction to ortho‐phenylenediamines

A method for the nitration of benzo‐2,1,3‐selenadiazoles using nitric acid dissolved in a mixture of methanesulfonic acid and phosphorus pentoxide at room temperature is presented. The S_N2Ar displacement of fluoride that is observed when sulfuric acid is used as solvent is prevented and yields are high. Sodium nitrate could be used in place of nitric acid with no loss in yield. Following nitration, the 2,1,3‐selenadiazole ring is cleaved with hydriodic acid to afford a 3‐nitro‐ortho‐phenylenediamine. The method is applied to the multi‐gram preparation of 4‐fluoro‐3‐nitrobenzene‐1,2‐diamine.     

The mass spectra of some 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoline and 2,1,3-benzothiadiazine 2,2-dioxides

Although the behaviour of 1H, 2H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoline 2,2-dioxide is similar to that of sulphoxides in the mass spectrometer in losing a molecule of SO₂, the 1,3-dimethyl derivative loses the radical SO₂H. In addition the radical CH₃SO₂ is lost in a one step process that must involve a methyl migration. The radical SO₂H is also lost from 2,1,3-benzothiadiazine 2,2-dioxides methylated in the 3-position and the hydrogen involved is shown to originate from this methyl group by deuterium labelling. The mass spectra of other 2,1,3-benzothiadiazine 2,2-dioxides are also discussed.     

Oxidationsreaktionen methyl-substituierter 2,1,3-Benzothiadiazole und 2,1,3-Benzoselenadiazole mit Selen-dioxid

Oxidation Reactions of Methyl Substituted 2,1,3-Benzothiadiazoles and 2,1,3-Benzoselenadiazoles with Selenium Dioxide The synthesis 5–8 by oxidation of 4-methyl-( 1 ),5-methyl( 2 ), 5,6-dimethyl-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole ( 3 ), and 5,6-dimethyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole ( 4 ), respectively, with selenium dioxide as well as their spectroscopic properties are described.     

Synthesis of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles

2,1,3-Benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles, 2 , have been prepared by two different methods. Reaction of bromo-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 1 , with cuprous cyanide occurs advantageously in refluxing dimethylformamide to give 2 , complexed with curpous bromide. Hydrogen peroxide in hydrochloric acid at 30–40° is shown to be an effective reagent for efficient decomposition of these reactions complexes, 2 CuBr, and subsequent isolation of 2. Yields in the Sandmeyer method for preparing nitriles 2 were improved by diazotizing amino-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 3 , with nitrosyl-sulfuric acid prior to reaction with the cuprous-sodium cyanide complex.     

Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles

The bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles in 47% hydrobromic acid at elevated temperature has led to a general preparative method for the synthesis in high yield of otherwise difficulty accessible brominated 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles. The typical addition reaction is apparently eliminated under these reaction conditions and substitution takes place exclusively. Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole occurs successively at positions 4 and 7. 4-Substituted 2,1,3-benzothia-diazoles are selectively brominated at position 7. 5-Bromo- and 5-methyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole are brominated consecutively at positions 4 and 7.     

Synthesis of 10-thia-5-deazafolic acid and 2-desamino-2-oxo-10-thia-5-deazafolic acid

The folate analogue, 10-thia-5-deazafolic acid, was obtained via a multistep synthetic sequence beginning with the known intermediate, 2,4-diaminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrirnidine-6-carboxaldehyde. Reduction of this aldehyde with sodium borohydride gave 2,4-diamino-6-(hydroxymethyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine, which when heated in base gave 2-amino-3,4-dihydro-6-(hydroxymethyl)-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine. Treatment of the latter compound with phosphorus tribromide in tetrahydrofuran afforded 2-amino-6-(bromomethyl)-3,4-dihydro-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine, thus constituting the first successful synthesis of this elusive intermediate. The aforementioned bromomethyl compound reacted smoothly with the sodium salt of ethyl 4-mercaptobenzoate, and the resulting ester was saponified to give 10-thia-5-deazapteroic acid. Conventional peptide bond coupling to di-tert-butyl L-glutamate followed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid afforded the target compound in respectable yield. Attempts to prepare its 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro derivative by catalytic hydrogenation were unsuccessful.
