Condensed isoquinolines 25. Alkylation of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one

Interaction of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[2,3-b]quinazolin-13-one with alkylating agents occurs at two positions depending on their nature and the reaction conditions-at C₍₆₎ or N₍₅₎. Fusion with methyl tosylate leads to 5-methyl-13-oxo-6,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-5-ium salts, while interaction with benzyl halides in the presence of i-PrONa gave 6-benzyl-and 6,6-dibenzyl-6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones. Alkylation with olefins led to two types of products. In the case of maleinimides and maleic acid anhydride Michael adducts at C₍₆₎ were formed and in the case of cyanocinnamic acid esters the reaction was accompanied by intramolecular acylation at N₍₅₎ to give 1-aryl-3,9-dioxo-3H,9H,11H-benzo[5,6][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-2-carbonitrile. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No.11, 1698–1708, November 2007.

The reaction of 3-haloanthranilic acids with o-bromomethylphenylacetonitrile gave 2-(2-carboxy-6-halophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinium bromides. 2-Chlorophenylisoquinolinium bromides are readily converted into 4-R-6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-ones by heating >145°C, but 2,4-dibromophenylisoquinolinium bromide only on fusing with anthranilic acid. The effect of the nature and position of substituents in the quinazoline fragment of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones on the rate of the rearrangement into 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazol-13-ones has been studied.

Condensed isoquinolines 26. Oxidation reactions of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino-[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-13-one derivatives

Oxidation of the hydrobromide of 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one with dimethyl sulfoxide leads to 11-hydroxy-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline-6,13-dione, and with hydrogen peroxide to the hydrobromide of 2-[(4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolinyl)carbonyl]benzoic acid. Salts of 5-and 6-alkyl-substituted isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolines are readily oxidized on boiling in nitrobenzene, which leads to aromatization of the isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline system to 5-methyl-13-oxo-5H,13H-isoquino[ 3,2-b]quinazolinium perchlorate and 6-benzyl-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one. The structures of the dehydrogenation products were established from ¹H NMR and UV spectra. The interaction of the obtained compounds with NaBH₄ has been studied. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1833–1840, December, 2007.     

Condensed isoquinolines 30. Acylation and alkylation of 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino-[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]quinazolin-11-one

It was shown that 6-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones are formed when 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one is heated with the chlorides and anhydrides of carboxylic acids in the presence of bases (pyridine, NaOAc) while 5-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones are formed in the presence of NaH. In the presence of NaH 6-acyl-5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-ones form the products from acylation and alkylation at position 5. The action of heat on 5,13-dihydro-11H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one in oxalyl chloride leads to 7H,8H-2a,7a-diazacyclopenta[fg]naphthacene-1,2,8-trione. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 741–750, May, 2008.

The direction of the reaction of anthranilic acids with o-bromomethylphenylacetonitrile upon fusion depends on the temperature and nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. The reaction may lead to three types of products: Derivatives of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones below 150°C and to 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one or derivatives of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones above 150°C depending on the nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. A study was carried out on the mechanism for the formation of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones, which permitted the preparation of 6-(4-methylphenyl)-6,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1059–1067, July, 2007.

Condensation of 2-(cyanomethyl)benzoic acid with 2-aminobenzylamine gave 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-11-one. Its oxidation in nitrobenzene led to the formation of 5,13,5′,13′-hexahydro[6,6′]bi[isoquino[3,2-b]quinazoline]-11,11′-dione, but in dichlorobenzene in the presence of elemental sulfur and iodine it gave the rearrangement product 6H-dibenzo[b,f][1,8]naphthyridin-5-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No.2, 273–279, February, 2008.

We studied the dependence of the direction of conversions for salts of angular 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one on temperature and the nature of the anion: heating in high-boiling solvents leads either to aromatization of the heterosystem or to the rearrangement product, the linear 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one. When its hydrobromide is heated in high-boiling solvents, along with dimerization of the linear isomers, processes of oxidation at the positions 6 and 11 of the heterosystem occur. The dimer obtained in the reaction with morpholine is readily cleaved, with formation of a 6-(4-morpholyl)-substituted linear compound. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 430–439, March, 2007.

The reaction of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones with o-xylidene dibromide leads to 11-oxo-4bH,5H,10H,11H,16H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene bromides, which are converted to 11-oxo-10H,11H,16H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene salts upon oxidation using nitrobenzene. The reaction of these salts with benzylamine leads to 6-{2-[(benzylimino)methyl]phenyl}-7,12-dihydroisoquino[3,2-b][2]benzazepin-14(6H)-ones, which recyclize to 11-oxo-5H,10H,11H-10a-aza-15b-azoniadibenzo[a,e]pleiadene perchlorates upon the action of perchloric acid.

It was found that 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones can exist in the two tautomeric imine and enamine forms. The tautomeric equilibrium position depends on the nature and position of the substituent in the quinazoline fragment.

Treatment of 5-aryl-3-halo-12H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolines with electrophilic reagents readily forms their oxidation products. Acylation of the 3-chloro-5-phenyl-7,12-dihydroisoquino[2,3-a]quinazolinium perchlorate with Ac₂O in the presence of pyridine gave the product of electrophilic substitution at the C-7 atom 1-(3-chloro-5-phenyl-12H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-7-yl)-1-ethanone. By the same route phenacyl bromides react with the anhydro base 1 to give 5-aryl-7-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3-halo-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-13-ium bromides. These salts readily react with nucleophilic reagents to form the products of addition at the C-12 atom. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1044–1052, July, 2008.
