The influence of various dimethylformamide acetals on the yield of 3-(4-chloro-anilino)-2-cyano-5-(dimethylamino)penta-2,4-dienoic acid N-(dimethylamino)methyl-ideneamide was investigated in the reaction of these acetals with 3-(4-chloroanilino)-2-cyanocrotonamide.

The latter compounds were converted into new substituted l,6-naphthyridinones by the action of various CH acids. A new approach to the synthesis of 4-(4-fluoroanilino)-5-formyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile using dimethylformamide diisopropylacetal under mild conditions was developed.

The cyclization mode into the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring was confirmed by the alternate syntheses of 5a,c from the reactions of the 3-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylmethylene)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines 7a,b with o-chlorobenzenediazonium chloride.

4-Hydroxy-2-quinolones. 168*. Synthesis,chemical and antitubercular properties of 1-R-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid pyrazin-2-ylamides

1-R-4-Hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid pyrazin-2-ylamides have been synthesized as potential antitubercular agents. In contrast to pyrimidin-2-ylamides the compounds prepared are brominated by molecular bromine in glacial acetic acid at position 6 of the quinolone ring rather than in the amide part of the molecule.

Photoinduced Double Addition of Acetylene to 3-Oxocyclopent-1-ene-1-carbonitrile or 3-oxocyclopent-1-enyl acetate leading to 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one and other rearranged products

UV Irradiation of 3-oxocyclopent-1-enyl acetate ( 17 ) and acetylene in MeCN at 0° gives, besides the product of normal enone-alkyne [2 + 2] cycloaddition (cis-4-oxobicyclo[3.2.0] hept-6-en-1-yl acetate, 18 ) and its product of oxa-di-π-methane rearrangement (5-oxotricyclo[4.1.0.0^2,7]hept-2-yl acetate, 19 ), unexpected products of further addition of a molar equivalent of acetylene. These are indanone ( = 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, 16 ), in 21% yield, cis-1-cisoid-1,2-cis-2- ( 20 ) and cis-1-transoid-1,2-cis-2-7-oxotricyclo[4.3.0.0^2,5]non-3-en-1-yl acetate ( 21 ), 4-oxo-7-‘exo’-vinyltricyclo[3.2.0.0^2,6]hept-2-yl acetate ( 22 ), cis-4-oxo-6-‘endo’- ( 23 ) and cis-4-oxo-6-‘exo’-vinylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-1-yl acetate ( 24 ), and cis-4-oxo-7-‘exo’-vinylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-1-yl acetate ( 25 ). At least in part, indanone must be formed via intermediates 20 and 21 . In fact, on heating a 9:1 mixture 20/21 , indanone is obtained quantitatively. With 3-oxocyclopent-1-ene-1-carbonitrile ( 15 ) in place of 17 , indanone is formed in lower (8%) yield besides much tars.

The reaction of zinc enolates with N-aryl-2-oxochromene-3-carboxamides in a weakly polar solvent (diethyl ether or ethyl acetate) affords mixtures of cis-N-aryl-1-aroyl-1-alkyl-2-oxo-1a,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromene-1a-carboxamides and their cyclic isomers, 9c-alkyl-1,2-diaryl-1-hydroxy-1,2,9b,9c-tetrahydro-5-oxa-2-azacyclopenta[2,3]cyclopropa[1,2-a]naphthalene-3,4-diones, the latter prevailing.

The reactions of 3-(α-arylhydrazono)hydrazinocarbonylmethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 1a,b with triethyl orthoesters resulted in the intramolecular cyclization to give the 3-(α-arylhydrazono-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylmethyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 4a–d , but not the 1,2,4,5-tetrazepinylquinoxalines 5a–d . The cyclization mode into the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring was confirmed by the alternate syntheses of 4a,c from the reactions of 3-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylmethylene)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines 6a,b with o-chlorophenyl diazonium salts, respectively.

Treatment of 19 successively with chlorotrimethylsilane, N-chlorosuccinimide and water gave 10-oxo-10H-pyrido[1,2-a]thieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acid ( 17 ). Methyl tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-thiophenecarboxylate ( 21 ) was converted to 10-oxo-10H-pyrido[1,2-a]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acid ( 25 ) by an analogous route.

A facile and novel synthesis of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones

A new and convenient procedure for the synthesis of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones and their derivatives is described. In the first scheme 5-acetyl-6-[2-(dimethylamino)ethenyl]-1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarbonitrile ( 4 ) obtained by the reaction of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal with 5-acetyl-1,2-dihydro-6-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarbonitrile ( 3 ) was cyclized to 1,2-dihydro-5-methyl-2-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine-3-carbonitrile ( 5 ) by the action of ammonium acetate. Thermal decarboxylation of acid 7 obtained from the hydrolysis of nitrile 5 led to a mixture of 5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 8 ) and its dimer 9 . Hydrazide 11 obtained from nitrile 5 in two steps was converted to 3-amino-5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 12 ) by the Curtius rearrangement. The amino group of 12 was readily replaced by treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide to yield 3-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one ( 13 ). In the second scheme, Michael reaction of enamines of type 20 with methyl propiolate, followed by ring closure gave 5-acyl(aroyl)-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinones ( 21 ) which in turn were treated with Bredereck's reagent to produce 5-acyl(aroyl)-6-[2-(dimethylamino)ethenyl]-2(1H)-pyridinones ( 22 ). Treatment of 22 with ammonium acetate led to the formation of 1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones 23 .
