In the presence of alcoholic potassium borohydride, compounds 1 underwent reductive transacylation to give 1,3-oxazin-2-one derivatives 3 (Table III, a,b,c). When the other side of the ketone possessed substituents other than hydrogen, there were always also normal reduction products, i.e., secondary alcohols 2 (Table II) in addition to 3.

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.

In the presence of alcoholic alkali these compounds underwent transacylation to dihydro-6-(2-hydroxyaryl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-(1H,2H)diones (Table III) and their 4-thio analogues (Table IV).     

The synthesis of 5-substituted 3-benzoylamino-6-(2-substituted amino-1-ethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones and their transformations into 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives

A new approach to the 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine system is described. 5,6-Disubstituted 3-benzoylamino-2H-pyran-2-ones 3a,b , prepared from the corresponding 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds 1a,b and methyl (Z)-2-benzoylamino-3-dimethylaminopropenoate ( 2 ), were converted into 3-benzoylamino-6-(2-dimethylamino-1-ethenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2H-pyran-2-one ( 4a ) and 5-acetyl derivative 4b . The exchange of the dimethylamino group in 4a,b with aromatic amines 5a-f,m , héteroaromatic amines 5g-i , and benzylamines 5j-l produced 5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-benzoylamino-6-(2-arylamino- or heteroarylamino-or benzylamino-1-ethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones 6a-l , and its 5-acetyl analog 6m . The compounds 6 were cyclized in basic media into 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives 7a-h . Analogously react also α-amino acid derivatives 8a-c and 11 as nitrogen nucleophiles producing 9a-c, 10 and 12 .     

A facile synthesis of novel 1,2-diazepino[3,4-b]quinoxalines by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the quinoxaline 4-oxides 4a,b with 2-chloroacrylonitrile gave the 2,3-dihydro-1H-1,2-diazepino[3,4-b]quinoxalines 5a,b , respectively, which were converted into the 2,3,4,6-tetrahydro-1H-1,2-diazepino[3,4-b]quinoxalines 7a,b and 8a,b , respectively.     

Synthesis of polycyclic pyridazinediones as chemiluminescent compounds

Reactions of 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carbonitrile derivatives 3a-o with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of potassium carbonate in dimethyl sulfoxide gave the corresponding dimethyl 1,3-disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,6-dicarboxylates 4a-o which were allowed to react with excess hydrazine hydrate under ethanol refluxing conditions followed by heating at 250-300° to give 1,3-disubstituted 4-amino-1H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 7a-s in good yields. Similarly, 1,3-disubstituted 4-hydroxy-1H-pyrazolo[4′3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-diones 10a-c were obtained from alkyl 1,3-disubstituted 5-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylates 8a-c . These tricyclic pyridazine derivatives were alternatively synthesized from 4-hydroxypyrrolo[3,4-e]pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5,7-diones 13a-c prepared by reactions of 5-aminopyrazoles (8e-g) with methyl 1-methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (11a) followed by the Gould/Jacobs reaction. 1-Methyl-4-methylthio-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitrile smoothly reacted with 2-aminobenzimidazoles to give the corresponding 5-amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[3′4′:4,5]pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,3(2H)-diones 16a-e , which were readily converted to the desired 12-aminopyridazino[4′,5′:4,5]pyrimido-[1,2-a]benzimidazole-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 17a-e in good yields. Other pyridazinopyrimidine derivatives were also obtained by the reaction of the corresponding 2-aminoheterocycles with the maleimide in good yields. Substituted anilines reacted 11b in refluxing methanol to give the corresponding methyl 4-phenylamino-1-methyl-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates 25a-e which were converted in good yields to 2-methylpyrrolo[3,4-b]quinoline derivatives 26a-e by heating in diphenyl ether. Reaction of 26a-c with hydrazine hydrate gave 10-hydroxypyridazino[4,5-b]quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 27a-e in good yields. The desired 10-aminopyridazino[4,5-b]pyridazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 30a-e were obtained in good yields by the chlorination of 4a-e with phosphorus oxychloride followed by aminolysis with 28% ammonium hydroxide. Some pyridazino[4,5-a][2.2.3]cyclazine-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 37a,b as luminescent compounds were synthesized via several steps from indolizine derivatives. The key intermediates, dimethyl 6-dimethylamino[2.2.3]cyclazine-1,2-dicarboxylates 34, 36 , were synthesized by the [8 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of the corresponding 7-dimethylaminoindolizines 33, 35 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of Pd-C in refluxing toluene. Some were found to be more efficient than luminol in light production. 4-Amino-3-methylsufonyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-5,8(6H,7H)-dione (7r) , 10-hydroxypyridazino[4,5-b]-quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 27a-e , and 10-aminopyridazino[4,5-b]quinoline-1,4(2H,3H)-diones 30a-e showed the greatest chemiluminescence intensity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide peroxidase in a solution of phosphate buffer at pH 8.0.     

New heterocyclic structures. [1,2,5]Thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido-[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine and thiazolo[3,2a][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

Derivatives of two new molecular structures, namely, 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one and 6,7-dihydro-9H-thiazolo[3,2-a][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-d][pyrimidin-9-one, and derivatives of N-substituted sulfamic acid, namely, (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid and (7-amino-2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-on-6-yl)sulfamic acid, were separated out as by-products in the reduction reaction of 8-amino-3,4-dihydro-7-nitroso-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1- b][1,3]thiazin-6-one and 7-amino-2,3-dihydro-6-nitroso-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one derivatives, respectively, with sodium hydrosulfite. A mechanism of reaction, which hypothesizes the action of sodium hydrosulfite in an asymmetic form, is proposed. The results of single-crystal X-ray investigation on 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one (R = 0.032 for 863 reflections) and (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b]- [1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid, sodium salt (R = 0.028 for 3507 reflections) are reported.     

Ring transformation of 6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-oxazine-2,4-diones

Ring transformation of 6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-oxazine-2,4-dione (Ia) and its N-sub-stituted derivatives, such as 3-methyl (Ib), 3-ethyl (Ic), and 3-benzyl (Id) derivatives is described. Reaction of Ia with hydrazine hydrate gave 1-amino-6-methyluracil (II), while Id reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give 3-hydroxy-5-methylpyrazole (III). Reaction of Ia,b,d with ethyl acetoacetate in ethanol in the presence of sodium ethoxide afforded ethyl 3-acetyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2(1H) pyridone-5-carboxylate derivatives (IVa,b,d). On the other hand, reaction of Ib,c,d with ethyl acetoacetate in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of sodium hydride did not give IV, but gave 3-acetyl-1-alkyl-5-(N-alkylcarbamoyl)-6-hydroxy4-methyl-2(1H) pyridone (VIb,c,d). Mechanisms for the formation of compounds IV and VI are discussed.     

Synthesis and structural characterisation of 4H‐1,3‐benzothiazine derivatives

The ring‐closure reactions of N‐arylthiomethylaroylamide derivatives ( 1a‐g ) in the presence of phospho ‐rus oxychloride gave 2‐aryl‐4H‐1,3‐benzo‐thiazines (2a‐g). 2‐(3‐Chlorophenyl)‐6‐methyl‐4H‐1,3‐benzoth‐iazine ( 2b ) was reduced with Zn to obtain the corresponding 2,3‐dihydro derivative ( 3b ). Potassium permanganate oxidation of 2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2,3‐diethoxy‐4H‐ ( 2e ) and 2‐(2‐fluorophenyl)‐6,7‐diefhoxy‐4H‐1,3‐benzo‐thiazines ( 2g ) gave the corresponding 4‐ones ( 4e,g ). The reactions of 2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐6‐mefhyl‐4H‐1,3‐benzofhiazine ( 2c ) with substituted acetyl chlorides led to linearly condensed ß‐lactams ( 5a,b ). The structures of the compounds studied were confirmed by ¹H and ¹³C NMR and by their characteristic mass spectrometric fragmentations.     

Synthesis of some new five membered heterocycles,a facile synthesis of oxazolidinones

The synthesis and structural properties of two kinds of thiosemicarbazide derivatives ( 2a‐c and 3a‐c ) and one kind of semicarbazide derivatives ( 4a, 4b ) have been described. These compounds were synthesized by treating 2‐(4‐amino‐3‐alkyl‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐yl)acetohydrazides ( 1a‐c ) with benzyl isothiocyanate, 3‐florophenyl isothiocyanate and benzylisocyanate, respectively. The synthesis of 4‐amino‐3‐alkyl‐1‐[(4‐alkyl‐5‐mercapto(or 5‐oxo)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)methyl]‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐5‐ones ( 5a‐c, 6a‐c and 7 ) have been performed from the reaction with sodium hydroxide. On the other hand, the acidic treatment of compounds 2b, 3b and 4b has afforded 4‐amino‐3‐(4‐chlorobenzyl)‐1‐[(5‐alkylamino‐1,3,4‐thidazol(or 1,3,4‐oxazol)‐2‐yl)methyl]‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐5‐ones ( 8, 9 and 10 ). The condensation of thiosemi(or semi)carbazide derivatives ( 2a‐c, 3c and 4b ) with 4‐chlorophenacylbromide have resulted in the formation of 2‐[4‐amino‐3‐alkyl‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐yl]‐N′‐(3,4‐dialkyl‐1,3‐thiazol(or oxazol)‐2(3H)‐yliden]acetohydrazides ( 11a‐c, 12, 13 ), while their condensation with chloroacetic acid has produced 2‐[4‐amino‐3‐alkyl‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐yl]‐N′‐[3‐(3‐alkyl)]‐4‐oxo‐1,3‐thiazolidin(or oxazolidin)‐2‐yliden}acetohydrazides ( 14, 15 and 16 ). The spectral data and elemental analyses have support the proposed structures.     

5-Cyano-6-aryluracil and 2-thiouracil derivatives as potential chemotherapeutic agents. IV

A series of 5-cyano-6-aryluracils and 2-thiouracils 1a-h has been prepared and alkylated to 1,3-dialkyluracils 2a-d and 2-alkylthiouracils, 3, 4 and 6 , by electrophilic substitution with alkyl halides. Reaction of 1b with dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane gave the corresponding bicyclic products, 7-aryl-6-cyano-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones 5a,b and 8-aryl-7-cyano-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimido[2,3-b][1,3]thiazin-6-ones 5c-g . Nucleophilic substitution on 6 with hydrazine led to 7 which on refluxing with formic acid gave 5-aryl-6-cyano-8-methyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b]pyrimidin-7-ones ( 9 ), while with acetic and propionic acids only 2-acylhydrazino-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-arylpyrimidines 8a,b were isolated. The hydrazine 7 undergoes cyclization with acetylacetone and methyl dimethylmercaptoacrylate providing 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-substituted pyrimidines 10 , and 11 . Some of the compounds were screened for antibacterial-, antifungal- and antiviral activities and a few of them showed significant chemotherapeutical activities.     

[2+3] Cycloadditions of ‘Thiocarbonyl Ylides’ (= (Alkylidenesulfonio)methanides) and diazoalkanes with N,N′-(thiocarbonyl)diimidazole (= 1,1′-(carbonothioyl)bis[1H-imidazole])

Heating of a mixture of N,N′-(thiocarbonyl)diimidazole (= 1,1′-(carbonothioyl)bis[1H-imidazole]; 1 ) and 2,5-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole 2a or 2b gave the 1,3-dithiolanes 4a and 4b , respectively, via a regiospecific 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the corresponding ‘thiocarbonyl methanides’ 3a , b onto the C?S group of 1 (Schemes 1 and 2). The adamantane derivative 4b was not stable in the presence of 1H-imidazole and during chromatographic workup. The isolated 1,3-dithiole 5 is the product of a base-catalyzed elimination of 1H-imidazole from the initial cycloadduct 4b . The formation of the S,N-acetal 6 can be rationalized by a protonation of the ‘thiocarbonyl ylide’ 3b followed by a nucleophilic addition of 1H-imidazole. With the diazo compounds 8a–e (Scheme 3) 1 underwent a regiospecific 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to give the corresponding 2,5-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives 9 , which spontaneously eliminated 1H-imidazole to yield (1H-imidazol-1-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 10 . The structures of 10a and 10d were established by X-ray crystallography. In the case of diazodiphenylmethane ( 8f ), the initial cycloadduct 9f decomposed via a ‘twofold extrusion’ of N₂ and S to give 1,1′-(2,2-diphenylethenylidene)bis[1H-imidazole] ( 11 ; Scheme 3).     

Azines and azoles: CXXIX. Synthesis,structure, and some reactions of 2-aryl-4-sulfanyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-ones

Reactions of 2-aryl-4-chloro-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-ones with sodium sulfide in aqueous alcohol at 18–20°C led to the formation of a readily separable mixture of 2-aryl-4-sulfanyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-one sodium salts (yield >70%) and bis(2-aryl-6-oxo-6H-1,3-thiazin-4-yl) sulfides (<10%). The latter can also be obtained in more than 50% yield by treatment of 2-aryl-4-sulfanyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-one sodium salts with 2-aryl-4-chloro-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-ones. Methylation of 2-aryl-4-sulfanyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-ones afforded the corresponding methylsulfanyl derivatives (yield >90%) regardless of the alkylating agent, solvent, temperature, reactant concentration, and their ratio. 2-Aryl-4-sulfanyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-ones in the crystalline state and in solutions in polar and nonpolar protic and aprotic solvents exist preferentially as 4-sulfanyl-6-oxo tautomers, and they undergo almost complete ionization in neutral aqueous, alcoholic, and aqueous-alcoholic media (pK _a = 4.3). Reactions of 4-sulfanyl-2-phenyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-6-one with ammonia, amines, and difunctional N-centered nucleophiles involve cleavage of the C⁶-S bond in the thiazine ring and subsequent recyclization of linear intermediates to pyrimidines and diazole derivatives. The structure of the isolated compounds was confiirmed by ¹H and ¹³C NMR, IR, and UV spectra.     

Synthese von (Methylthio)penam-Derivaten durch Keten-Addition an 4,5-Dihydro-5-(methylthio)-1,3-thiazole

Synthesis of (Methylthio)penam Derivatives via Keten Addition onto 4,5-Dihydro-5-(methylthio)-1,3-thiazoles The 4,5-dihydro-5-(methylthio)-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazoles 3a and 3b , easily prepared from the corresponding 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-thiones and MeLi, react with dichloroacetyl chloride ( 5a ) and acidoacetyl chloride ( 5b ) in the presence of Et₃N to give (methylthio)penam derivatives 6 (Table 1). The reaction mechanism is either a [2 + 2] cycloaddition of in situ generated ketene or a two-step reaction (Scheme 2). The structure of 6f has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography (Fig. 2). The relative configuration of 6a-e follow from comparison of their ¹H-NMR spectra with those of 6f (Fig. 1). The 6-azidopenams 6d and 6f have been reduced to aminopenams 8a and 8b , respectively. Acylation of 8a with phenacetyl chloride yields 9 (Scheme 4).     

Synthesis of 3,3′-(1,6-hexanediyl)bis-pyrimidine derivatives and 3,4-dithia[6.6](1.3)pyrimidinophane

Several 3,3′-(1,6-hexanediyl)bis[6-methyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione] derivatives ( 4a, 4b , and 4c ) were synthesized from 1,6-(hexanediyl)bis[6-methyl-2H-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-dione] (3) . Compound 4c was converted to 6, which reacted with thiourea giving thiuronium salt 7 . 3,3′-(1,6-Hexanediyl)bis [1-(2-mercaptoethyl)-6-methyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione] (9) was obtained by the hydrolysis of 7 , and then 9 was oxidized to 12,22-dimethyl-3,4-dithia[6.6] (1.3)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,4-dioxopyrimidinophane (10) .

Thermal decomposition of the diazonium sulfate derived from N-methyl-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-aminobenzamide afforded products formulated as 1-phenyl-3-methyl[2]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazol-5-one (yield 10%), 1,4-dimethyl-3-phenylpyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5-one (yield 10%), N-methyl-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-hydroxybenzamide (yield 8%) and 4′-hydroxy-2,3′-dimethyl-1′-phenylspiro[isoindoline-1,5′-[2]-pyrazolin]-3-one (yield 20%). Decomposition of the diazonium sulfate derived from N-methyl-(1,3-diphenylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-aminobenzamide gave products formulated as 7,9-dimethyldibenzo[e,g]pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3]-diazocin-10-(9H)one (yield 8%), 4-methyl-1,3-diphenylpyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5-one (yield 7%) and 4′-hydroxy-2-methyl-1′,3′-diphenylspiro[isoindoline-1,5′-[2]pyrazolin]3-one (yield 10%). The spiro compounds 6a,b underwent thermal and acid-catalysed conversion into the hitherto unknown 2-benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazole ring system 7a,b in good yield. Analytical and spectral data are presented which supported the structures proposed.
