The synthesis of the novel pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine ring system and some of its derivatives has been accomplished such as 4-amino-1-phenyl-5,8-dioxo-, 4-amino-5,8-dioxo-, 1-phenyl-5,8-dioxo-, 5,8-dioxo-, 5,8-dichloro-1-phenyl-, 5-ethoxy-1-phenyl- and 8-ethoxy-1-phenylpyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrid-azines.

Novel pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 5, 6 and 8 were synthesized, and these compounds were converted into novel spiro[benzoxazole-2′,4(1H,3′H)-pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines] 7 and 9 by ring transformation.

Synthesis of 2-amino-6,7-dihydrothieno-[3′,2′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one

2-Amino-6,7-dihydrothieno[3′,2′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-rf]pyrimidin-4-one ( 1 ) was prepared in three steps from S-(3-butynyl)thiosemicarbazide hydroiodide ( 3 ) and diethyl ketomalonate. The featured step in this synthetic sequence was an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of the in situ generated 3-(3-butynylthio)-6-carboethoxy-5-chloro-1,2,4-triazine ( 9 ) to provide the key intermediate 5-carboethoxy-6-chloro-2,3-dihydrothieno-[2,3-b]pyridine ( 6 ). In the course of studies directed toward the preparation of 1 , thermolysis of 3-(3-butynyl-thio)-6-carboethoxy-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one ( 2 ) was found to involve competitive intramolecular Diels-Alder and intramolecular coplanar cycloamination processes, providing the 2,3-dihydrothieno[2,3-b]pyridin-6(7H)-one ( 4 ) and the 1,3-thiazino[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazin-3-one (5) derivatives, respectively.     

A new method for the synthesis of novel 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines and pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepines

Novel 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines 7,8 were synthesized by the reactions of malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate with the pyrazole-5-diazonium salt 3 . Moreover, compounds 7,8 were converted into the pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepines 9, 10 .     

Naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3–6][1,5]benzodiazepine Derivatives

The reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-1-oxo-1H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-2-carbaldehyde (Ia) with o-phenylenediamines or N-monosubstituted o-phenylenediamines in refluxing glacial acetic acid afforded the corresponding naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepin-15-(8H)ones V in very good yields. A similar result was achieved when the reaction was carried out in refluxing pyridine, using N-monosubstituted o-phenylenediamine hydrochlorides. The isolation of a significant intermediate as well as the synthesis through a different univocal pathway confirmed the structure of the compounds V. Moreover the reaction of Ia with N-monosubstituted o-phenylenediamines in refluxing pyridine generally afforded only low yields of compounds V, sometimes together with naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepin-15-(13H)ones VII, isomers of V.     

A novel synthesis of pyrido[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepines

The reactions of 7 and 8 with o-phenylenediamine di-hydrochloride provided 9-ethoxycarbonyl-13H-spiro[benzimidazole-2′(3′H),6(5H)-pyrazolo[1,5′:3,4][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepine] hydrochloride 11a and 9-ethoxycarbonyl-6-oxo-13H-5,6-dihydropyrazolo-[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzodiazepine 12 , respectively.

The reactions of the 3-substituted 4-amino-8-ethoxycarbonyl[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines 1 and 2 with o-amino-phenol hydrochloride gave the pyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 5 and 8 . The alkylation of 5 with methyl iodide and isopropyl iodide afforded the 6-alkoxylpyrazolo[1′,5′:3,4][1,2,4]triazino-[5,6-b][1,5]benzoxazepines 6a and 6b , respectively. Refluxing of 5, 6a, 6b and 8 in hydrochloric acid/acetic acid resulted in ring transformation to produce the spiro[benzoxazole-2′(3′H),4(1H)pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]-triazines] 7a, 7b and 9 . The screening data of the above compounds was described.

The synthesis of thieno[2′,3′:4,5]thieno[2,3-c][1,10]phenanthroline ( 5 ) and thieno[3′,2′:4,5]thieno-[2,3-c][1,10]phenanthroline ( 10 ) are described. Each compound was obtained in four steps from known starting materials. The basic skeleton of the molecule and of the phenanthroline ring were formed via photocyclization.

Novel synthesis of the title compounds by the facile cyclization between 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanopyrazine and various 2-aminopyridines under relatively mild conditions is described. The reactivity depended on the basicity of 2-aminopyridines.     

Synthesis of thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepine derivatives

A new series of 4‐(4‐methylpiperazin‐1‐yl)thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepines 1a‐k has been synthesized from 4‐bromo‐2‐methylthiophene 6 or ethyl 2‐amino‐4,5‐dimethyl‐3‐thiophencarboxylate 10 . Preparation of the key intermediate thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepine‐4(5H)‐ones 4a‐i, 4k were carried out by treatment of 2‐bromo‐N‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐3‐thiophencarboxamides 5a‐i, 5k with potassium carbonate in DMSO. Compounds 1 are thienoanalogues of loxapine, a potent antipsychotic drug. Of these compounds, the neu‐roleptic activity of 2‐methyl‐4‐(4‐methylpiperazin‐l‐yl)thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepine 1a (R¹, R³=H, R²=CH₃) demonstrated potent antipsychotic activity.     

Synthesis of Pyrido[2′,3′: 3,4]pyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine,Pyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[5,1‐c][1,2,4]triazine,and Pyrazolyl Oxadiazolylthieno[2,3‐b]pyridine Derivatives

6‐(2‐Thienyl)‐4‐(trifluoromethyl)‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine‐3‐amine reacted with different active methylene compounds to afford pyridopyrazolopyrimidine derivatives. On the other hand, it reacted with some halo compounds to give the imidazo[1′,2′:1,5]pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine derivatives. Also, it diazotized to give the corresponding diazonium chloride that is coupled with several active methylene compounds to give the corresponding triazine derivatives. Furthermore, compound 3‐amino‐6‐(2(thienyl)‐4‐(trifluoromethyl)thieno[2,3‐b]pyridine‐2‐carbohydrazide reacted with some β‐dicarbonyl compounds and some sulfur‐containing compounds to afford the corresponding pyrazolyl oxadiazolylthieno[2,3‐b]pyridine derivatives.     

Tricyclic heterocyclic systems: Pyrazolo[5′,4′:4,5]-and pyrazolo-[3′,4′:4,5]pyrano[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives

By reacting 2-chloronicotinoyl chloride with acetyl or benzoyl acetate, ethyl 2-methyl- or 2-phenyl-4-oxopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxylates were prepared. The nucleophilic rearrangement of the latter with hydrazines gave rise to the title compounds.     

Synthesis and stereochemistry of new trihydrodiazabicyclo-[3.m.n]alkano[4′,5′:1,2]pyrido[3,4-b]indole ring system

The classical Pictet-Spengler reaction of tryptamine with the isomeric N-benzylpiperidones 3a, 3b and N-benzylpyrrolidone 3c yielded the spiro derivatives of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline 5a, 5b and 5c . Cyclocon-densation of the spirotetrahydrocarboline with chloroacetic chloride and the subsequent reductive debenzylation afforded the new ring systems of trihydrodiazabicyclo[3.m.n]alkano[4′,5′:1,2]pyrido[3,4-b]indoles 8a , 8b , and 8c . The structures of the bicyclic systems 8a, 8b , and 8c were determined by using both, high-resolution ¹H and ¹³C nmr techniques and force field and MNDO calculations.     

14H-Naphtho[1′,2′:5,6] pyrano[2,3-b]quinoline derivatives

Reaction of (N-alkyl-N-phenyl)ethoxycarbonylacetamides with β-naphthol in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride afforded 1-oxo-3-(N-alkyl-N-phenyl)amino-1H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrans. These compounds underwent reaction with N,N-dimethylformamide-phosphorus oxychloride at 95° yielding a mixture of 14H-naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-b]quinoline derivatives and 1-oxo-2-formyl-3-(N-alkyl-N-phenyl)amino-9-oxy-1H-phenalene. When the same reaction was performed at 140°, only 14-oxo-14H-naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-b]quinoline was obtained in a very good yield. The structures of such compounds were demonstrated by spectral data and by chemical transformations. On the other hand, the expected formylation in the 2 position was achieved when 1-oxo-3-(N-alkyl-N-benzyl)amino-1H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrans reacted with N,N-dimethylformamide-phosphorus oxychloride.     

Synthesis of new guanidine derivatives from 2′,3′,4′,9′-tetrahydrospiro[piperidine-4,1′-[1H]pyrido[3,4-b]indole]

The reaction of the isothiourea derivative 2 with methylaminc or pyrrolidine resulted in guanidines 3a-3b . Using hydrazine under the same conditions the tetrazole derivative 4 was obtained. On reacting 2 with piperidine, morpholine, methylhydrazine, phenylhydrazine, hydroxylamine or sodium hydroxide, cycliza-tion took place leading to the novel 4-cyanimino-1,2,3,4,6,7,12,12b-octahydro-3,12b-ethanopyrim-ido[1′,6′:1,2]pyrido[3,4-b]indole ( 5 ). Some structural aspects of 5 and other model compounds were analysed mainly by ¹³C nmr spectroscopy.
