9H-Pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diones. The acid-catalyzed cyclization of 6-(phenylhydrazino)uracils

6-(Phenylhydrazino)uracils undergo facile Fischer-type cyclization in both N hydrochloric acid and in formic acid at reflux to give 9H-pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diones. Yields appear to be related to substituent effects and side reactions, and these are discussed in light of the mechanism of this reaction. In the reaction of 6-(phenylhydrazino)uracil itself with hydrochloric acid, the major competing reaction is hydrolysis to barbituric acid and phenylhydrazine, whereas in formic acid a novel cyclization occurs to give I-phenyl-3-carboxamidomethyl-1,2,4-triazole as the major product. Nmr spectra of pyrimido[4,5-b]indole-2,4-diones provide interesting examples of peri effects on proton chemical shifts.     

A one-step preparation of pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine ring system by reaction of 5-formyl-1,3,6-trimethyl-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione with primary amines

6,7-Dihydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones were obtained in high yields from the reaction of 5-formyl-1,3,6-trimethylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione ( 1 ) and primary amines. For this pyridopyrimidine synthesis the following reaction pathway is proposed; the [1,5]-hydrogen shift of 1 gives a 5,6-dihydro-5,6-dimethylenepyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione intermediate. The cycloaddition reaction of the intermediate with aldimines from 1 and the primary amines affords 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones, which are dehydrated to the final products.     

Synthesis of 1,3-dialkylpyrazolo [1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones isomers of 1,3-dialkylxanthines

The synthesis of a new series of alkylxanthine analogs containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom is reported. 1,3-Dialkylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones, were prepared by the treatment of 3-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dione (3) with the corresponding alkyl iodide. Similarly, the reaction of 3-methyl-7-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-dialkyl-7-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones. The starting materials, 3 and 17 , were prepared via the reaction of an appropriate 3-aminopyrazole with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate. Several 8-bromo derivatives were prepared by direct bromination of the 1,3-dialkylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones.     

Pyrrolopyrimidines. 5. Reaction of 6-Amino-1,3-dimethylpyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones with 1,3-Diketones

The reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione with 1,3-diketones leads to formation of predominantly pyrimido[4',5':3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones and, to a lesser extent, pyrimido[5',4':3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazine-1,3(2H,4H)-diones. The ease and direction of the cyclization reaction suggests a very -electron rich pyrrole ring in the initial state, especially in the position 7.     

Reaction of 5-substituted-2-amino-2-oxazolines with ethoxycarbonyl isocyanate. A route to 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-4H-oxazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones

The reaction of 2-amino-2-oxazolines with ethoxycarbonyl isocyanate was investigated in order to access to fused 1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones with a potential 5-HT₂ antagonist activity. The reaction leads to 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-4H-oxazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones and to 1-carbethoxy-3-(2-iminooxazolidine)ureas. During the carbamoylation the regioselectivity seems to be related to the strong nucleophilic character of the endo nitrogen atom of 2-amino-2-oxazolines. The structures of two compounds were studied by X-ray crystallography. N-Substituted compounds have been prepared by alkylation of the 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-7-phenoxymethyl-4H-oxazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dione.     

Conversion of 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2,4-diones to 2,3a,4,5-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-c]quinoline-2,4-diones via an intramolecular wittig reaction

The preparation of 2,3a,4,5-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-c]quinoline-2,4-diones starting from 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2,4-diones and using the reaction path via bromoacetylderivatives and triphenylphosphonioacetyl derivatives of the initial substances is described. The nmr spectra of the products are discussed.     

Reaction of 2-aminobenzamide analogs and 2-aminothiophenol with ethyl 3-ethoxymethylene-2,4-dioxovalerate. Synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-α]quinazoline and pyrrolo[1,2-a]benzothiazoline derivatives

The reaction of ethyl 3-ethoymethylene-2,4-dioxovalerate (EMDV) ( 1 ) with 2-aminobenzamide ( 2 ), 2-aminobenzthioamide ( 3 ), 2-aminobenzmethylamide ( 4 ) and 3-amino-2-methyl- or phenylpyrazole-4-carbox-amides ( 6 and 7 ) produced ethyl 3-aminomethylene-2,4-dioxovalerates ( 10, 15, 16, 18 and 19 ), which led to pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinazoline-1,5-diones ( 11, 22 and 23 ) and pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidine-1,5-diones ( 24 and 25 ) under the acidic condition, respectively. Analogously, 2-aminothiophenol reacted with 1 to give 21 , which was subsequently derived to pyrrolo[1,2-a]benzothiazolin-l-one ( 26 ) under the neutral condition. Furthermore, we prepared the heterocyclic steroidal molecules ( 41, 43, 45, 47, 49 and 51 ) by condensation of 11 and 26 with hydrazine, methylhydrazine and phenylhydrazine.     

One-Step Synthesis of Furo[2,3-d]Pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-Diones Using the Can-Mediated Furan Ring Formation

The reaction of 1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione with various alkenes or terminal alkynes in the presence of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN) afforded the corresponding 5,6-dihydrofuro[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones or furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones in moderate to good yields.     

Reaction of 3-aminoquinoline-2,4-diones with nitrourea. Synthetic route to novel 3-ureidoquinoline-2,4-diones and imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-2,4-diones

1-Unsubstituted 3-alkyl/aryl-3-amino-1H,3H-quinoline-2,4-diones react with 1-substituted and 1,1-disubstituted ureas in boiling acetic acid to give 2,6-dihydro-imidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-diones. In contrast, the reaction of these amines with nitrourea in dioxane affords novel 3-alkyl/aryl-3-ureido-1H,3H-quinoline-2,4-diones or 9b-hydroxy-3a-alkyl/aryl-3,3a,5,9b-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-2,4-diones, which can smoothly be dehydrated to 3a-alkyl/aryl-3,3a-dihydro-5H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-2,4-diones. All three types of products can be converted to 2,6-dihydro-imidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-diones by refluxing in acetic acid.     

Reaction of 3-chloroquinoline-2,4-diones with ethanolamine and rearrangement of the reaction products

The reaction of tertiary α-chloroketones with ethanolamine has not been hitherto described in the literature. Herein, we describe the reaction of tertiary 3-chloroquinoline-2,4-diones with ethanolamine to give novel 3-(2-hydroxyethylamino)quinoline-2,4-diones. These compounds provide 3-(2-oxooxazolidin-3-yl)quinoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones and new compounds with dimeric character after reaction with triphosgene. Molecular rearrangement proceeds during the reaction of 3-(2-hydroxyethylamino)quinoline-2,4-diones with isocyanic acid. Three types of reaction products arise: 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)imidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-diones, 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3,3a-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-]quinoline-4(5H)diones and primarily 5-hydroxy-1-(hydroxyethyl)-1′H-spiro[imidazolidine-5,3′-indole]-2,2′-diones. The reaction mechanism and product stereochemistry are discussed. The ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectra of the prepared compounds were measured, and all resonances were assigned from appropriate two-dimensional experiments.     

New organic nitrates. II. Synthesis of 2H-pyrido[2,3-e]-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-diones, 2H-pyrido[4,3-e]-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-diones, 2H-pyrido[4,3-e]-1,3-oxazin-4(3H)-ones, 2H-thieno[2,3-e]-1,3-oxazin-4(3H)-ones and 2H-thieno[3,4-e]-1,3-oxazin-2,4(3H)-diones

The preparation and the physico-chemical characterization of 2H-pyrido[2,3-e]-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-diones, 2H-pyrido[4,3-e]-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-diones, 2H-pyrido[4,3-e]-1,3-oxazin-4(3H)-ones, 2H-thieno[2,3-e]-1,3-oxazin-4(3H)-ones and 2H-thieno[3,4-e]-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-diones are reported.     

Zur Reaktionsweise von Enaminen mit Cyclopropenonen I. Einsatz von Cyclododecanon-Enamin

Monomethyl-, dimethyl-, di-n-propyl- and diphenyl-cyclopropenone ( 6 to 9 ) have been reacted with 1-(N-pyrrolidino)-cyclododecene ( 5 ) and three types of products isolated. The major products (40–7% yield) were shown to have the 3 -(cyclododec-1′-E-enyl)Z-/or E-acryl-pyrrolidide structure ( 12 , 13 / 14 , 15 / 16 , 17 ) by their spectral properties and lithium aluminium hydride reductions as well as, in one case ( 13 ), by an alternative synthesis of a stereomer ( 34 ) via 1-(cyclododec-E-ene)-carboxaldehyde ( 29 ) and a Wittig reaction. These ‘amides’ are the result of a novel reaction, called ‘C, N-insertion’. In the reactions of the symmetrical cyclopropenes 7 to 9 with 5 , the minor products (6–10%) proved to have the 2,4-disubstituted cyclopentadeca-4-E-en-1,3-dione structures 38 to 40 . These ‘β-diketones’ are considered to be the hydrolysed forms of the intermediate 1-(N-pyrrolidino)-cyclopentadeca-1,4-dien-3-ones ( 45 ).They are formed by reactions (called ‘C,C-insertions’), which represent the first cases of direct ring expansions by three carbon atoms. Such ‘C,C-insertions’ have been postulated previously by other authors. However, their products do not behave like precursors of our ‘β-diketones’ but rather like our ‘amides’. It is proposed therefore, that a reinterpretation of these reactions in the literature must be considered in the light of our ‘C, N-insertion’. In one reaction ( 8 + 5 ) a bicyclo[10. 3. 0]pentadeca-12-en-14-one dericative 42 was found in 10% yield. This type of product and reaction (called ‘condensation’) has been reported previously. A suggestion is made for a systematic representation of the several types of reactions, which cyclopropenones can undergo with enamines. – Mixing 9 + 5 in the cold produced an intermediate, which insomerised on heating to the ‘amide’ 17 . Its properties are compared with those of recently described similar ‘primary adducts’ and the latter are reexamined in the light of the new product interpretations reported in this paper. A novel structure is considered for this intermediate, that a of cycle ‘ammonium acylid’ 51 . An attempt is made at the formulation of other possible intermediates.     

Synthesis of 6-substituted 7-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine(1H,3H)-2,4-diones using the Vilsmeier reaction

The reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil with equimolar amounts of arylalkanone Mannich bases under optimized reaction conditions leads to 7-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines in a yield of 50-80%. Functionalization of these dihydropyridopyrimidine(1H,3H)-2,4-diones with the Vilsmeier reagent affords, depending on the reaction conditions, either 6-dimethylaminomethylidene substituted 5H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine(1H,3H)-2,4-diones or the corresponding pyridopyrimidine(1H,3H)-2,4-diones bearing a carboxaldehyde function in position 6 of the heterocycle. Some further transformations of the aldehyde function demonstrate the synthetic potential of the synthesized structures, introducing pharmacologically relevant basic substituents into the side chain of these pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives.     

1,3,4,6-tetracarbonyl compounds. 3. synthesis, structural features, and antimicrobial activity of 1,6-diaryl-3,4-dihydroxy-2,4-hexadiene-1,6-diones

The Wittig reaction of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydro-2,3-furandiones with aroylmethylenetriphenylphosphoranes is regioselective and leads to the formation of 5-aryl-2-aroylmethylene-2,3-dihydro-3-furanones. In the presence of acid the products react with water, giving satisfactory yeilds of 1,6-diaryl-3,4-dihydroxy-2,4-hexadiene-1,6-diones. The latter were also obtained by the reaction of 2,3-furandiones with alkylnitroamines. The base-catalyzed condensation of 2,3-furandiones with acetophenones led to 1,6-diaryl-3,4-dihydroxy-2,4-hexadiene-1,6-diones, which exist in DMSO solution in equilibrium with the cyclic oxo tautomers —substituted 2-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-3-furanones. Some of the synthesized compounds exhibit antimicrobial activity toward standard strains ofStaphylococcus aureus andEscherichia coli.For Communication 2, see [1].Perm Pharmaceutical Academy, Perm, Russia; e-mail: kvo@pi.ccl.ru.

Rigid Scaffolds: Synthesis of 2,6-Bridged Piperazines with Functional Groups in all three Bridges

The activity of pharmacologically active compounds can be increased by presenting a drug in a defined conformation, which fits exactly into the binding pocket of its target. Herein, the piperazine scaffold was conformationally restricted by substituted C₂- or C₃-bridges across the 2- and 6-position. At first, a three-step, one-pot procedure was developed to obtain reproducibly piperazine-2,6-diones with various substituents at the N-atoms in high yields. Three strategies for bridging of piperazine-2,6-diones were pursued: 1. The bicyclic mixed ketals 8-benzyl-6-ethoxy-3-(4-methoxybenzyl)-6-(trimethylsilyloxy)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2,4-diones were prepared by Dieckmann analogous cyclization of 2-(3,5-dioxopiperazin-2-yl)acetates. 2. Stepwise allylation, hydroboration and oxidation of piperazine-2,6-diones led to 3-(3,5-dioxopiperazin-2-yl)propionaldehydes. Whereas reaction of such an aldehyde with base provided the bicyclic alcohol 9-benzyl-6-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxybenzyl)-3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4-dione in only 10 % yield, the corresponding sulfinylimines reacted with base to give N-(2,4-dioxo-3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-6-yl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamides in >66 % yield. 3. Transformation of a piperazine-2,6-dione with 1,4-dibromobut-2-ene and 3-halo-2-halomethylprop-1-enes provided 3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2,4-dione and 3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4-dione with a vinyl group at the C₂- or a methylene group at the C₃-bridge, respectively. Since bridging via sulfinylimines and the one-pot bridging with 3-bromo-2-bromomethylprop-1-ene gave promising yields, these strategies will be exploited for the synthesis of novel receptor ligands bearing various substituents in a defined orientation at the carbon bridge     

SYNTHESIS AND REACTIONS OF 2,3-DIHYDRO- 5-ARYL-5H,6H-THIAZOLO[3,2-b]-2,4-DIAZAFLUORENE-3,6-DIONES OF POTENTIAL BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES

Abstract

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-l-aryl-3,9-dioxo-2,4-diazafluorenes (2) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-aryl-9-oxo-3-thi-oxo-2,4-diazafluorenes (3) were newly synthesized. Compounds 3 reacted with chloroacetic acid, α-bromopropanoic acid, or B-bromopropanoic acid in the presence of fused sodium acetate and acetic anhydride to give 2,3-dihydro-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (4), 2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (5) and 2,3-dihydro-6-aryl-6H,7H-thiazino[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-4,7-diones (6), respectively.

2,3-Dihydro-2-arylmethylene-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (7) were prepared by the reaction of compounds (3) with chloroacetic acid and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of fused sodium acetate and acetic anhydride or by the reactions of (4) with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of acetic anhydride.

2-(Arylhydroazono)-5-aryl-2,3-dihydro-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (8) were synthesized by coupling (4) with aryldiazonium salts in the presence of pyridine.     

MICROWAVE INDUCED DRY-MEDIA SYNTHESIS OF SPIRO[INDOLE-THIAZOLIDINONES/ THIAZINONES] AS POTENTIAL ANTIFUNGAL AND ANTITUBERCULAR AGENTS AND STUDY OF THEIR REACTIONS

A series of new spiro[3H-indole-3,2′-thiazolidine]-2,4′(1H)-diones (IV) and spiro[3H-indole-3,2′-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine]-2,4′(1H)-diones (V) have been synthesized in 85–93% yield by the one-pot environmentally benign microwave induced technique involving the cyclocondensation of 3-arylimino-2H-indol-2-ones (III) with thioacids viz. mercapto aceticacid (a)/3-mercapto propionicacid (b) using montmorillonite KSF as inorganic solid support. Intermediates (III) were synthesized in situ by the reaction of indole-2,3-diones (I) and substituted anilines (II). The spiro compounds have been further subjected to solvent-free acetylation, aminoalkylation and thiation under microwave irradiation using solid supports. The synthesized compounds have been screened in vitro for antifungal activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, and Collectotrichum capsici, and antitubercular acivity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.     

[1,3,5]Triazino[1,2-a] azepines: A new ring system

The reaction of 2-pyrrolidino-1-aza-1-cycloheptene with aryl isocyanates leads, via 1,4-dipolar cycloaddition, to 1,3-diaryl-10a-pyrrolidinoperhydro[1,3,5]triazino[1,2-a]azepine-2,4-diones. The reaction provides a facile route to the novel [1,3,5]triazino[1,2-a]azepine ring system.     

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of pyrimido[5’,4’:3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-f]phenanthridine-12,14(11H,13H)-diones and related compounds

Representatives of the new heterocyclic system, pyrimido[5’,4’:3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-f]phenanthridine, were obtained via the intramolecular C–H-arylation of 6-aryl-5-(2-bromophenyl) pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones catalyzed by palladium complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (Pd/NHC).

     

Reaction of Tertiary 2-Chloroketones with Cyanide Ions: Application to 3-Chloroquinolinediones

3-Chloroquinoline-2,4-diones react with cyanide ions in dimethyl formamide to give 3-cyanoquinoline-2,4-diones in small yields due to the strong hindrance of the substituent at the C-3 atom. Good yields can be achieved if the substituent at this position is the methyl group. In the methanol solution, the reaction proceeds by an addition mechanism to form 2-oxo-1a,2,3,7b-tetrahydrooxireno[2,3-c]quinoline-7b-carbonitriles, from which 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-4-carbonitriles are subsequently formed by opening of the epoxide ring with methanol. Some minor products of these reactions have also been isolated. The ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectra of the prepared compounds were measured, and all resonances were assigned using appropriate two-dimensional spectra.
