Synthesis of 6-amino-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives

This paper reports the synthesis of new pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives as diuretic agents. Starting with 1,2-dihydro-5-nitro-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid 1 , ethyl 2-ethoxy-5-nitro-3-pyridincarboxylate 4 was obtained. Compound 4 reacts with ammonia, methylamine or S-methylpseudothiourea to give the respective 2-amino-5-nitro-3-pyridinecarboxamide derivatives 5 and 6 or 2-methylthio-6-nitro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one 8. Treating carboxamide 5 with arylaldehydes and zinc dichloride, new 2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-6-nitro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones 9 were synthetised. These compounds reduced with iron(II) hydroxide gave 6-amino-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones 10 as expected.     

Synthesis of 2-aza analog of rosoxacin

Diazotization of 2-nitro-4-(4-pyridinyl)aniline ( 4 ) in hydrobromic acid gave the corresponding bromo derivative 5 which was treated with cuprous cyanide to give the benzonitrile derivative 6 which in turn was converted to 2-nitroacetophenone derivative 9 . Reduction of 9 followed by diazotization of the resulting amine 10 gave 7-(4-pyridinyl)cinnolin-4(1H)-one ( 11 ) which was subsequently converted to 1 -ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(4-pyridinyl)cinnoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 14 ) in three steps.     

Rearrangement in the series of 3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones

4-Acetyl- and 4-succinyl-3-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones undergo the rearrangement into (Z)-2-(3-arylquinoxalin-2-ylidene)acetic acids accompanied by the elimination of the acyl groups. The nitration of 3-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-3,4-dihydro-quinoxalin-2(1H)-one affords 5-nitro- and 7-nitro-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines. The bromination of quinoxalin-2-ones in AcOH gives 3-aryl-2-carboxymethylidenequinoxalines and the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives, with the former products predominating.     

Aromatic nucleophilic substitution. Part 2. Preparation of novel 3-substituted xanthone and thioxanthone derivatives

The novel 3-nitro-9-oxo-9H-xanthene- and 3-nitro-9-oxo-9H-thioxanthene-l-carboxylic acids 2a–d were prepared by intramolecular acylation of 3-aryloxy- and 3-arylthio-5-nitrophthalic anhydrides 1 (Scheme). The 3-nitro group was readily substituted by O- and S-nucleophiles and halide and azide ions to give a range of 3-substituted thioxanthone derivatives 3 with varied λ_max.     

Reaction of 4-Aryl-1-(4-oxo-3,4-dihydrothieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)thiosemicarbazides with Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate

4-Aryl-1-(4-oxo-3,4-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)thiosemicarbazides react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in methanol to give the corresponding methyl {3-aryl-4-oxo-2-[(4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)hydrazono]-1,3-thiazolidin-5-ylidene}acetates, whereas in dioxane methyl 5-aryl-amino-2-methoxycarbonylmethyl-3-(4-oxo-3,4-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylates are mainly formed.     

Structures of Ring-Enlargement Products

Crystal structures have been determined of methyl trans-1-hydroxy-6-nitro-3-oxobicyclo[4.4.0]decane-2-carboxylate ( 19 ), cis-3-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxabicyclo[4.4.0]decan-1-ol ( 2 ), cis-7-hydroxy-1-nitrobicyclo[5.4.0]undecan-9-one ( 13 ), and the medium-ring compounds 2-acetyl-4-nitrocyclooctanone ( 9 ), methyl 5-nitro-2-oxocyclooctane-carboxylate ( 4 ), 2-acetyl-4-nitrocyclononanone ( 11 ), 2-acetyl-4-nitrocyclodecanone ( 15 ), benzyl 5-nitro-2,11-dioxocycloundecanecarboxylate ( 24 ), methyl 5-nitro-2,12-dioxocyclododecanecarboxylate ( 21 ), and 8-nitro-11-oxo-13-tridecanolide ( 7 ), which are intermediates, side products, or end products of the ‘Zip’ ring-enlargement reaction. The conformations of most of the medium-ring compounds are very similar to equal-sized ring compounds previously determine by other authors.     

Die Oxidation von 3-(1-Nitro-2-oxocycloalkyl)propanal

The Oxidation of 3-(1-Nitro-2-oxocycloalkyl)propanal Oxidation of the title compound 1 with KMnO₄ under neutral conditions led to the corresponding acid 2 , 5-(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-nitro-5-oxo-2-furyl)pentanoic acid ( 4 ), and 4-oxononadioic acid ( 6 ). On the basis of experimental results the mechanism of the formation of 4 is discussed (Scheme 1). Oxidation of 1 with KMnO₄ under basic conditions gave 6 which was transformed to (E)-4,5-dihydro-5(2′-oxocyclopentyliden)furan-2(3H)-one ( 12 ) with benzene/TsOH (Scheme 3). In contrast to this result the corresponding 4-oxoheptandioic acid ( 22 ) yields 1,6-dioxaspiro[4,4]nonan-2,7-dione ( 23 ) only (Scheme 4).     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 5-substituted-4-nitroimidazole ribonucleosides

The imidazole nucleosides, 4(5)-bromo-5(4)-nitro-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazoles, have been prepared via glycosylation of the trimethylsilylated aglycone, 4(5)-bromo-5(4)-nitroimidazole, with tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribo-furanose followed by removal of the acetyl protecting groups. The 5-bromo-4-nitro-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazole nucleoside was acetonated to produce 5-bromo-4-nitro-1-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-imidazole which was cyclized to provide the corresponding anhydronucleoside 5,5′-anhydro-4-nitro-5-oxo-1-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazole. Sodium hydrosulfide treatment of 5-bromo-4-nitroimidazole nucleoside provided 5-mercapto-4-nitro-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazole 5-sodium salt which was alkylated with E-1,5-diiodopent-1-ene to yield 5-(E-1-iodo-1-penten-5-yl)thio-4-nitro-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazole. The corresponding iodine-125-labeled compound was prepared similarly using radiolabeled diiodopentene. The 5-bromo-4-nitroimidazole, 5-mercapto-4-nitroimidazole, and 5-iodopentenylthio-4-nitroimidazole nucleosides were cytotoxic to Molt-3 cells in vitro at concentrations higher than 10 μg/mL. The radiolabeled 5-iodopentenylthio-4-nitroimidazole nucleoside showed 2-fold higher uptake in a rapidly growing tumor as compared to uptake in a relatively slower growing tumor in mice.     

Synthesis of 6-Amino-5-R2-7-(6-R1-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

It has been found that malonodinitrile and 2-(6-R¹-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)acetonitrile in the presence of triethylamine undergo hetarylation by 5,6-dichloro-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitrile at the active methylene group to give the triethylammonium salt of 2-(3-chloro-5,6-dicyano-2-pyrazinyl)malononitrile or 5-chloro-6-cyano(6-R¹-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-quinazolylidene)methyl-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles. Reaction of these with primary amines leads to annelation of the pyrrole ring at the pyrazine [b] edge to give 6-amino-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3,7-tricarbonitriles and 6-amino-5-R²-7-(6-R¹-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2-quinazolyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles respectively.     

Transformations in the 2-quinolone series

The treatment of 1-substituted-1,2-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid esters and 4-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-nitro-2-(1H)quinolinone with phosphorus oxychloride resulted in the formation of the corresponding 4-chloro-2-quinolones. Their reactions with a variety of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur nucleophiles is described.     

Synthesis of 5,8-dihydro-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids and the reinvestigation of the thermal cyclization of diethyl (2-hydroxy-4-pyrimidinyl)amino-methylenemalonate

Diethyl [2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-4-pyrimidinyl]aminomethylenemalonates 5 prepared by the reaction between 2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-4-pyrimidinamines 3 and diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate ( 4 ) were thermally cyclized to afford ethyl 5,8-dihydro-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates 6 . The later were alkylated with ethyl iodide and then saponified to give 5,8-dihydro-8-ethyl-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)pyrido-[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids 2 . Thermal cyclization of diethyl (2-hydroxy-4-pyrimidinyl)amino-methylenemalonate ( 8 ) gave ethyl 1,6-dihydro-4,6-dioxo-4H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylate ( 10 ) instead of ethyl 5,8-dihydro-2-hydroxy-5-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate ( 9 ) as previously claimed.     

Synthesis and acid-catalyzed transformations of solvomercuration adducts of 2-nitrobenzylcyclopropane. First stable metalated 1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions

Sovomercuration adducts of 2-nitrobenzyl-, 2-nitro-4,5-(ethylenedioxy)benzyl-, and 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzylcyclopropanes were synthesized. The adducts reacted with sulfuric, fluorosulfonic, or chlorosulfonic acid to give 3-(2-chloromercurio)ethyl-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions whose stability depended on the nature of substituents in the aromatic ring. Unstable metalated 1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions underwent fast protodemercuration to form metal-free 3-ethyl-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions. Stable analogs in the above acids did not change to an appreciable extent over a period of 48–72 h. Hydrolysis of stable metalated 1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2,1-benzoxazolium ions afforded only 4-chloromercurio-1-(2-nitroaryl)butan-2-ol.     

Synthesis and Transformations of 2-Hydroxy-2-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,4-naphthoquinone

2-Hydroxy-3-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,4-naphthoquinone reacts with o-phenylenediamine and 4-chloro-2-aminophenol to give cyclization products: 5-oxo-6-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-5,6H-benzo[a]phenazine and 5-oxo-6-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-10-chlorobenzo[a]phenoxazine; the reaction with aniline yields the quaternary anilinium salt, and benzoyl chloride and benzenesulfonyl chloride acylate the nitrogen atom of the benzotriazolyl moiety.     

Synthesis of 3-(α-chlorophenylhydrazono)heteroarylmethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines with antimicrobial activity

The reactions of 3-(α-chlorophenylhydrazono)hydrazinocarbonylmethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 4a,c with triethyl orthoesters resulted in the intramolecular cyclization to give the 3-(α-chlorophenylhydrazono-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylmethyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 5a-d , but not the 1,2,4,5-tetrazepinylquinoxalines 6a-d . 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. Moreover, the reactions of 3-(benzimidazol-2-ylmethylene)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline hydrochloride 8 with o-, m- and p-chlorobenzenediazonium chlorides afforded the 3-(α-chlorophenylhydrazonobenzimidazol-2-ylmethy])-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxa]ine hydrochlorides 9a-c , respectively. Compounds 5a-d and 9a-c were found to exhibit antimicrobial activities.

The reaction of 3-(4-bromoacetylphenyl)-1-methylquinolin-2(1Н)-one with pyridine and 4-methylpyridine has afforded the corresponding pyridinium salts. Condensation of 4-methyl-1-{2-[4-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)phenyl]-2-oxoethyl}pyridinium bromide with 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde has given a new biscyanine dye, 1-{1-[4-(1,2-dihydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-3-quinolinyl)benzoyl]-2-[4-(dimethylamino)-phenyl]ethynyl}-4-{2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethynyl}pyridinium bromide. Its electronic spectrum has been analyzed, and quantum-chemical simulation of spatial and electronic structure of its possible isomers has been performed.

Alkyl nitrate nitration of active methylene compounds. Nitration of 1-methyl4-piperidone, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and 1,3-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinone

The reaction of 1-methyl-4-piperidone ( 1 ) with amyl nitrate in the potassium tert-butoxidetetrahydrofuran system gave dipotassium 5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-piperidinedinitronate ( 4 ) in 78% yield. Similar treatment of 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone ( 2 ) afforded potassium 3-methyl-2-oxopyrrolidinenitronate ( 7 ) in 85% yield. In contrast, the nitration of 1,3-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinone ( 3 ) led to opening of the lactam ring with the formation of amyl 2-aza-2-methyl-5-nitrohexanoate ( 10 ) in 40% yield. Acidification of disalt 4 did not cause ring opening but gave the dipolar ion of 1-methyl-3-nitro 4-hydroxy-5-aci-nitro-Δ³-tetrahydropyridinium (6).     

A new course of the Perkin cyclization of 2-(2-formyl-6-methoxyphenoxy)alkanoic acids. Synthesis of 2-alkyl-7-methoxy-5-nitrobenzo[b]furans

2-Alkyl-7-methoxy-5-nitrobenzo[b]furan, 2-alkyl-9-methoxy-7-nitro-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-5H-benzo[e][1,4]-dioxepin-5-yl acetate and 2-alkyl-5-hydroxy-9-methoxy-7-nitro-5H-benzo[e][1,4]-dioxepin-3-one were formed as a result of the cyclization of 2-(2-formyl-6-methoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)alkanoic acids under classical Perkin reaction conditions. The products were characterized by spectroscopic methods and the mechanism of the cyclization is discussed.
