Summary. The synthesis of 1,2,6,10b,11,12-hexahydro-5H-imidazo[1,2:1,2]pyrimido[4,3-a]isoquinolines representing new types of 8,13,15-triazasteroids is described. The tetracyclic title compounds were prepared from 4-(2-hydroxyalkylamino)tetrahydro-2H-pyrimidoisoquinolines, which furnish after conversion to the corresponding bromoalkylamino compounds and base-catalyzed intramolecular nucleophilic displacement cyclization of the latter the desired 1-substituted 8,13,15-triazasteroids with aromatic ring A. The structures of the compounds were proved and assigned on the basis of homo- and heteronuclear correlated 1D and 2D NMR experiments. The title compounds represent triaza-analogues of selected high energy intermediates (HEI) of steroidal substrates formed during the enzymatic transformation of squalene into ergosterol and are designed to act as inhibitory mimicries of HEIs and potential antimycotics.Received March 4, 2003; accepted March 7, 2003 Published online June 23, 2003

Nitropyrazoles

A method for the synthesis of 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile from 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole was developed. Nucleophilic substitution in 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole, 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carboxamide, and 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile involves solely the 5-NO₂-group in the ring. 1-Methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile reacts with thioglycolic acid phenylamide and potassium carbonate to give 4-amino-1-methyl-3-nitro-N-phenyl-1H-thieno[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carboxamide. The use of glycolic acid phenylamide instead of thioglycolic acid N-phenylamide under analogous conditions resulted in 5-anilino-1-methyl-3-nitro-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile. An explanation for the regiospecificity of the nucleophilic substitution of the 5-NO₂ group in 4-R-1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazoles is given. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Regiospecificity of nucleophilic substitution in 4,6-dinitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazole

The reactions of 4,6-dinitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazole with anionic nucleophiles RS^– and N₃ ^– lead to the regiospecific replacement of the nitro group at position 4. The reaction with N₂H₄·H₂O + FeCl₃ also results in reduction of only the 4-NO₂ group. Based on this fact, a procedure was developed for the preparation of previously unknown 3-unsubstituted 4-X-6-nitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazoles (X is a residue of a nucleophile or NH₂). Comparison of the data on the selective nucleophilic substitution (4-NO₂ group) in 3-Z-1-aryl-4,6-dinitro-1H-indazoles shows that in the case of Z = H, the regiospecificity of substitution is determined by the electronic effect of the annelated pyrazole ring.     

Reactions of N-(2-chloroacetyl)-α-amino acids with 3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones. New promising route to 3,4-dihydropyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[3,2-e][1,4]diazepine-2(1H),5-diones

The reactions of N-(2-chloroacetyl)--amino acids with 3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones afforded N-(3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridin-2-ylcarbonyl)--amino acids. Heating of the latter smoothly produced 3,4-dihydropyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[3,2-e][1,4]diazepine-2(1H),5-diones in high yields.     

Synthesis of 3-substituted 1-aryl-4,6-dinitro-1H-indazoles based on picrylacetaldehyde and their behavior in nucleophilic substitution reactions

A method for the synthesis of 1-aryl-3-formyl-4,6-dinitro-1H-indazoles by the reaction of picrylacetaldehyde with aryldiazonium salts followed by intramolecular cyclization of the resulting picrylglyoxal monoarylhydrazones was developed. Various 4,6-dinitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazoles substituted in position 3 were prepared via transformations involving the formyl group of 3-formyl-4,6-dinitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazole. 3-R-4,6-Dinitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazoles (R = CHO, CN, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl) react regiospecifically with anionic O-, S-, and N-nucleophiles, in particular, with replacement of only the 4-NO₂ group. Thus previously unknown 3-R-4-Nu-6-nitro-1-phenyl-1H-indazoles were synthesized (Nu is a nucleophile residue).

Emission of 2-phenylethanol from its β-d-glucopyranoside and the biogenesis of these compounds from [H8] l-phenylalanine in rose flowers

The hydrolysis of 2-phenylethyl β-d-glucopyranoside (3) was found to be partially inhibited by feeding with 2-phenyl-N-glucosyl-acetamidiumbromide (8), a β-glucosidase inhibitor, resulting in a decrease in the diurnal emission of 2-phenylethanol (2) from Rosa damascena Mill. flowers. Detection of [1,1,2,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-²H₈]-2 and [1,2,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-²H₇]-2 from R. ‘Hoh-Jun’ flowers fed with [1,1,2,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-²H₈]-3 suggested that β-glucosidase, alcohol dehydrogenase, and reductase might be involved in scent emission. Comprehensive GC-SIM analyses revealed that [1,2,2,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-²H₈]-2 and [1,2,2,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-²H₈]-3 must be biosynthesized from [1,2,2,2′,3′,4′,5′6′-²H₈] l-phenylalanine ([²H₈]-1) with a retention of the deuterium atom at α-position of [²H₈]-1.     

Synthesis and transformations of 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines

Reactions of 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran with 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridines afford a number of substituted 3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines. The possibility of the reaction and the yield of the product are determined by the character of a substituent in position 2 of thieno[2,3-b]pyridine. The Curtius rearrangement of 2-acylazido-3(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines yields 4,5-dihydropyrido[3",2":4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-4-ones. The molecular and crystal structures of ethyl 4-methoxymethyl-6-methyl-3-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.

Synthesis and Characterization of Tetraosmium Carbonyl Complexes Containing a Bridging CO2 Ligand

Treatment of (thd)H (thd=2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptandionate) with excess Os₃(CO)₁₂ in an autoclave at 180°C gives the formation of a brown metal chain complex [Os₂(CO)₅(thd)₂]₂ (1) and a yellow CO₂ cluster complex [Os₄(-H)(-CO₂)(thd)(CO)₁₃] (2) in low yields. Complex 2 was fully identified by a combination of spectroscopic methods and X-ray diffraction study, showing a unique CO₂ ligand bridging a triosmium metal fragment, Os₃(-H)(CO)₁₀ and a monometallic osmium fragment, Os(CO)₃(thd). Upon treatment of 1 with Me₃NO at an elevated temperature, oxidation of the CO ligand occurred at the position trans to the unique CO₂ ligand on the Os(CO)₃(thd) fragment, giving the formation of a second CO₂ cluster [Os₄(-H)(-CO₂)(thd)(CO)₁₂(NCMe)] (3), which is stabilized by a weakly coordinated acetonitrile molecule.
