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.     

Cyclic condensations of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds

The reactions of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds are described. 2,4-Pentanedione gave 2-thiocyanato-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine while diethylmalonate and ethyl acetoacetate yielded 5-hydroxy-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-one and 7-methyl-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, respectively. The structure of the latter compound was confirmed by a synthesis of the alternative isomeric structure (5-methyl-7H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrirnidin-7-one) from 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and α-bromocrotonic acid.     

A facile synthesis of oxazolo[3,2-a][1,10]phenanthrolines via a new multicomponent reaction

The synthesis of N-cyclohexyl-10-(2-fluorophenyl)-8aH-oxazolo[3,2-a][1,10]phenanthroline and N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-10-(2-fluorophenyl)-8aH-oxazolo[3,2-a][1,10]phenanthroline by reaction of 2-fluorobenzaldehyde, phenanthroline and cyclohexyl or 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide is reported.     

Structural characterization of 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazines by electron impact mass spectrometry

The electron-impact-induced fragmentation of eleven 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazines was investigated with the aid of exact mass measurements, B/E and B²/E linked scans, and deuterated compounds. The dominating breakdown process in the electron impact mass spectra of 2-substituted 6-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]-[1,3,5]triazine-5,7-diones (1–5) is a retro-Diels-Alder reaction. This process gives rise to the base peak, whereas the molecular ions are of very low intensity. In the mass spectra of 2-substituted 7-methylthio-1,3,4-thiadiazolo-[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazine-5-ones (6–11) in which this fragmentation cannot occur because of the two conjugated double bonds in the triazine ring, the molecular ions are very intense. The mass spectral data permits an unequivocal structure assignment to these compounds, which are otherwise difficult to characterize.     

Microwave assisted synthesis of some new thiazolopyrimidine, thiazolodipyrimidine and thiazolopyrimidothiazolopyrimidine derivatives with potential antioxidant and antimicrobial activity

Biginelli reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, thiourea and the appropriate aromatic aldehyde was used to produce ethyl 4-aryl-6-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxylates, that reacted with bromomalononitrile to give ethyl 3-amino-5-aryl-2-cyano-7-methyl-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates rather than the isomeric 7H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines. Thiazolopyrimidine derivatives reacted with carbon disulphide to yield ethyl 9-aryl-7-methyl-2,4-dithioxo-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-thiazolo[3,2-a:4,5-d']dipyrimidine-8-carboxylates, that reacted with phenacyl bromide to produce ethyl 8-methyl-10-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-substituted-5-thioxo-2(un)subatituted-10H-thiazolo[3',2':1',2']pyrimido[4',5':4,5]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-9-carboxylates. The aforementioned reactions were carried out using both conventional chemical methods and with the assistance of microwave irradaition. Comparison between both methods showed that the microwave assisted method is preferable because of the time reduction and yield improvements achieved. The new compounds were tested for their biological activity as antioxidants, antibacterial or antifungal agents. Some of the new compounds were found to have moderate to good antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.

The reaction of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, 5-ethoxy-2-mercaptobenzimidazole, and 2-mercaptoimidazoline with cinnamoyl chloride, its derivatives, and heteroanalogs was studied. Convenient methods were found for the synthesis of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazino[3,2-a]benzimidazol-4-ones and 7-aryl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3-thiazin-5-ones.     

Condensed 1,3,5-triazines: 1,3,4-Thiadiazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazines and isoxazolo[2,3-a]-1,3,5-triazines

A convenient route is reported for the synthesis of substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-5,7-diones and isoxazolo[2,3-a]-1,3,5-triazines. Condensation of the appropriately substituted 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 3-aminoisoxazole with phenoxycarbonyl isocyanate provides the desired target compounds in fair yield.     

Synthesis of novel 1,3-oxazino[6,5-b]indole-2,4-(3H,9H)-dione and 2H-1,3,5-oxadiazino[3,2-a]indole-2,4-(3H)-dione from oxindoles

Two novel tricyclic ring systems were designed as serine protease inhibitors and synthesized from oxindoles; the first series, 1,3-oxazino[6,5-b]indole-2,4-(3H,9H)-diones, were prepared from 2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-(1H)-indole-3-carboxamides and phosgene in tetrahydrofuran with triethylamine. The second, a 2H-1,3,5-oxadiazino[3,2-a]indole-2,4-(3H)-dione was made using a similar cyclization on 2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-N-phenyl-(1H)-indole-1-carboxamide.     

Novel Selected Tandem Transformations of the Amino and Carbonyl/Nitrile Groups in the Gewald Thiophenes

Novel transformations of the amino and carbonyl/nitrile groups in the Gewald thiophenes were studied for thienopyrimidine synthesis. It was found that 2-amino-thiophene-3-carboxamides and ethyl 2-(acetylamino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbo- xylate did not yield tetrazole derivatives, neither in the reaction with triethyl orthoformate and sodium azide, nor in the reaction with phosphorus oxychloride and sodium azide, correspondingly. On the contrary, derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one were isolated. New 2-azidothiophenes [2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetra hydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile and 2-azido-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-3-yl(phenyl)methanone] were synthesized and used in anionic domino reactions with activated acetonitriles to yield thieno[3,2-e][1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and/or 2-(5-amino-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)thiophenes. Finally, a new ring system of thieno[3,2-e]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine was synthesized via a domino reaction of ethyl 2-[(2Z)-2-(1-chloro-2-ethoxy-2-oxoethylidene)hydrazino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxylate with activated acetonitriles.     

Some New Reactions and Properties of Xanthane Hydride (5-Amino-1,2,4-dithiazole-3-thione)

Aminomethylation of xanthane hydride (5-amino-1,2,4-dithiazole-3-thione) with the RNH₂–HCHO system has resulted in the formation of the derivatives of new heterocyclic system (3,7-dihydro-5H-[1,2,4]-dithiazolo[4,3-a][1,3,5]triazine) in low yields. The reaction of xanthane hydride with dicyandiamide has led to thioammeline [4,6-diamino-1,3,5-triazine-2(5Н)-thione]. Some practically important properties of xanthane hydride and its derivatives have been investigated. Xanthane hydride has efficiently exhibited carbon steel corrosion in neutral aqueous media. The prepared compounds have not exhibited growth-regulating or antidote activity to herbicide 2,4-D.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial testing of 2-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone

Synthesis of 2-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 5 ) from 2-amino-6-methyl-4-(3H)-pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 2 ) was accomplished by selenium dioxide oxidation of 2 to the aldehyde 4 followed by sodium borohydride reduction. Compound 2 was available in four steps from 5-aminouracil or in two steps from 5-nitroisocytosine ( 3a ). Catalytic reduction of 4 or 5 gave a mixture of 2-amino-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4-(3H)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidinone ( 6a ) and the 6-hydroxymethyl compound 6b . These compounds showed only weak inhibitory activity in the coupled reactions catalyzed by 7,8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin pyrophosphokinase and 7,8-dihydropteroate synthetase from E. Coli. No significant antibacterial activity was observed.     

Synthesis of Some 1,3-Thiazole, 1,3,4-Thiadiazole, Pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine, and 1,2,4-Triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine Derivatives Based on the Thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazole Moiety

3-(3-Methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile was synthesized by refluxing ethyl 3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazole-2-carboxylate, acetonitrile, and sodium hydride. Treatment of 3-(3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile with phenyl isothiocyanate, in the presence of KOH, furnished the corresponding potassium salt which was converted into thioacetanilide derivative upon neutralization. The thioacetanilide derivative reacts with α-chloroacetylacetone and ethyl α-chloroacetoacetate to give the 1,3-thiazole derivatives, while the reaction of the'thioacetanilide derivative with hydrazonyl chlorides gave 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives. On the other hand, 3-(3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile reacted with the diazonium salt of both 3-phenyl-5-amino-(1H)-pyrazole and 5-amino-l,2,4-(1H)-triazole to afford the corresponding hydrazones. The latter hydrazones underwent an intramolecular cyclization upon boiling in pyridine to give pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine and 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine derivatives. Moreover, the behavior of thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-3(2H)-one towards phenyl isothiocyanate followed by the reaction with α-chloroketones or hydrazonyl chlorides was investigated. Some of the latter compounds exhibited moderate effects against some bacterial and fungal species.     

1-Acylmethylbenzimidazole-2-sulfonic acids and their cyclization by N-nucleophiles

New preparation method was developed for derivatives of 1,4-dihydro-1,2,4-triazino[4,3-a]-, 2-aryl-1(9)H-, and 1-R-imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazole underlain by newly synthesized 1-acylmethylbenzimidazole-2-sulfonic acids. The latter react with 2-aminoethanol affording along with the previously described compounds of the 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)imidazobenzimidazole series also compounds of formerly unknown polycyclic system, 2,3,11,12-tetrahydro-1,3-oxazolo[2,3-a]imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazole.

Synthesis of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridines via an unusual Mannich-type cyclization

The Mannich-type reaction of N-methylmorpholinium 4-aryl-3-cyano-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-2-thiolates with 3-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-methylpropanal (ocean propanal) and p-toluidine afforded 7-aryl-2-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-methyl-3-[(4-methylphenyl)amino]-5-oxo-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine-8-carbonitriles in modest (25–46%) yields. The structure of the key compound was confirmed by X-ray crystal structure analysis.     

Synthesis and properties of 3-arylcyclohepta[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(3H)-diones and related compounds: photo-induced autorecycling oxidation of some amines

Novel 3-phenyl- and 3-(4-nitrophenyl)cyclohepta[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(3H)-diones and the corresponding imino derivatives 5a,b and 6a,b were synthesized in modest to moderate yields by the abnormal and normal aza-Wittig reaction of 2-(1,3-diazaazulen-2-ylimino)triphenylphosphorane with aryl isocyanates and subsequent heterocyclization reaction with a second isocyanate. The related cationic compound, 1-methyl-3-phenylcyclohepta[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(3H)-dionylium tetrafluoroborate 7a, was also prepared. The electrochemical reduction of these compounds exhibited more positive reduction potentials as compared with those of the related compounds of 3,10-disubstituted cyclohepta[4,5]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione systems. In a search of the oxidizing ability, compounds 5a, 6a, and 7a were demonstrated to oxidize some amines to give the corresponding imines in more than 100% yield under aerobic and photo-irradiation conditions, while even benzylamine was not oxidized under aerobic and thermal conditions at 100 °C. The oxidation reactions by cation 7a are more efficient than that by 5a and 6a. Quenching of the fluorescence of 5a was observed, and thus, the oxidation reaction by 5a probably proceeds via electron-transfer from amine to the excited singlet state of 5a. In the case of cation 7a, the oxidation reaction is proposed to proceed via formation of an amine-adduct of 7a and subsequent photo-induced radical cleavage reaction.     

Synthesis of Some 1,3-Thiazole, 1,3,4-Thiadiazole, Pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine, and 1,2,4-Triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine Derivatives Based on the Thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazole Moiety

Summary. 3-(3-Methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile was synthesized by refluxing ethyl 3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazole-2-carboxylate, acetonitrile, and sodium hydride. Treatment of 3-(3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile with phenyl isothiocyanate, in the presence of KOH, furnished the corresponding potassium salt which was converted into thioacetanilide derivative upon neutralization. The thioacetanilide derivative reacts with α-chloroacetylacetone and ethyl α-chloroacetoacetate to give the 1,3-thiazole derivatives, while the reaction of the'thioacetanilide derivative with hydrazonyl chlorides gave 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives. On the other hand, 3-(3-methylthiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-oxopropionitrile reacted with the diazonium salt of both 3-phenyl-5-amino-(1H)-pyrazole and 5-amino-l,2,4-(1H)-triazole to afford the corresponding hydrazones. The latter hydrazones underwent an intramolecular cyclization upon boiling in pyridine to give pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine and 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine derivatives. Moreover, the behavior of thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-3(2H)-one towards phenyl isothiocyanate followed by the reaction with α-chloroketones or hydrazonyl chlorides was investigated. Some of the latter compounds exhibited moderate effects against some bacterial and fungal species.     

[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.     

Thermolyzed products of naphth[1,2-d]imidazo[2,1-b]-thiazole-2,3-dione

Themolysis of naphth[1,2-d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-2,3-dione ( 1 ) in dimethylformamide gave an intermediate 2-isocyanatonaphtho[1,2-d]thiazole ( 2 ), which underwent [4 + 4] cyclodimerization to yield dinaphtho-[1″,2″:4,5;1′″,2′″:4′,5′]dithiazolo[3,2-a:3′,2′-e]-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine-9,19-dione ( 3 ). The possible [4 + 2] cycloadduct, 3-(2-naphtho-[1,2-d]-thiazolyl)naphtho[1′,2′:4,5]thiazolo[3,2-a]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dione ( 4 ), an usual dimer type of heterocyclic isocyanates was not produced. Discrimination between the two isomers was established on the basis of spectral analyses.
