A method was developed for the synthesis of pyrano[4,3-b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine derivatives based on the reaction of 3-amino-7-ethyl-7-methyl-7,8-dihydro-5H-pyrano[4,3-b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester with chloroacetic acid chloride, triethyl orthoformate, hydrazine hydrate, and also phenyl chloroformate. The synthesis of various new representatives of pyrano[2″,3″:5′,6′]pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[3,2-dl-pyrimidine series was carried out.

     

Syntheses of fluorescent dyes. IX. New 4-hydroxycoumarins, 4-hydroxy-2-quinolones, 2H,5H-Pyrano[3,2-c]benzopyran-2,5-diones and 2H,5H-Pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5-diones

7-Substituted 4-hydroxycoumarins (2a-e) and 4-hydroxy-2-quinolones (2f-i) have been synthesized from the appropriate phenols or anilines and were converted to the enamines 3 using triethoxymethane and aniline. Condensation of 3 with nitriles 4a-h gave substituted 2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]benzopyran-2,5-diones (5a-r) or 2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5-diones (5s-x) , which exhibit both spontaneous and stimulated fluorescence with maxima between 418 and 549 nm. The marked influence of an electron withdrawing 3-substituent in 5 is demonstrated by the fluorescence spectra of 7a,b (synthesized from 2d,e and ethyl 3-oxobutyrate), whose maxima are sharply shifted to the blue as compared with compounds 21-r.     

Convenient synthesis of linear 2H,6H-pyrano[3,2-g] chromenes from natural occurring compound; visnagin

Abstract

A simple and convenient rout for the synthesis of linear 2-imino-2H,6H-pyrano[3,2-g] chromen-6-ones and 2H,6H-pyrano[3,2-g]chromene-2,6-diones has been described starting from natural occurring furochromone; visnagin (1). Ring opening of 1 yielded 6-formyl-7-hydroxy-5-methoxy-2-methylchromone (2), which underwent reaction with different acetonitrile derivatives furnished 2-imino-2H,6H-pyrano[3,2-g] chromen-6-ones (5a–h). Acid hydrolysis of 5a–h led to the formation of 2H,6H-pyrano[3,2-g]chromene-2,6-diones (6a–h). Structures of the synthesized compounds were clarified based on their elemental analyses and spectral data. The entire target compounds were selected for in vitro anticancer activity against 60 human cancer cell lines at a single dose (10^?5 M) by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA).

Reaction of ketenes with N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. XI. Synthesis of 2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazole derivatives

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted 6-aminomethylene-5,6-dihydro-2-phenylbenzothiazol-7-(4H)ones gave in good yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones II, which are derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazole. Dehydrochlorination with triethylamine of II afforded N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5,6-dihydro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones III in good to moderate yield. The dimethylamino adduct was dehydrochlorinated in high yield by refluxing in toluene, whereas the diisopropylamino adduct gave in low yield 6-(2,2-dichloroethylidene)-5,6-dihydro-2-phenylbenzothiazol-7-(4H)one with the triethylamine treatment. The dehydrochlorinated product IIId (NR₂ = pyrrolidino) was obtained directly in low yield by cycloaddition of dichloroketene to the corresponding enaminone. Full aromatisation of IIIa,g [NR₂ = N(CH₃)₂ and N(CH₃)C₆H₅, respectively] to the corresponding N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-8-phenyl-2H-pyrano-[3,2-g]benzothiazol-2-ones was accomplished with DDQ in refluxing benzene.     

Synthesis and Photochromic Behaviour of Naphthopyrans,Pyranoquinolines, Pyranoquinazolines and Pyranoquinoxalines

New chromenes annulated with different six-membered azaheterocycles were prepared, i.e., the 3H-pyra-no[3,2-f]quinolines 9/10 and 14 , the 8H-pyrano[2,3-h]isoquinoline 11 , the 8H-pyrano[3,2-f]quinazolme 12 , the 8-H-pyrano[3,2-f]quinoxaline 13 , and the 2H-pyrano[2,3-f]isoquinoline 15. The synthesis was achieved using conveniently substituted α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and organotitanium intermediates arising from azaheterocyclic phenols. Their photochromic behaviour (photocolouration yield, UV/VIS spectrum of photomerocyanines, rate constant of thermal bleaching) were studied besides those of corresponding naphthopyrans. The heterocycle effect and the role of substituents in the pyran moiety were investigated quantitatively through the study of the photochromic properties and the solvent effects. Diaryl-substituted azino-fused chromenes, especially isoquinoline derivatives, exhibit increased colourabilities and bathochromically shifted spectra for photomerocyanines which open up new prospects for photochromic applications.

Methyl 2-(benzyloxycarbonyl)aimno-3-dimemylaminopropenoate ( 2 ) was prepared from methyl N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)glycinate ( 1 ) and t-butoxybis(dimethylamino)methane, and used as a reagent for preparation of substituted 3-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino-4H-quinolizin-4-ones 5 and 6 , ?2H-pyran-2-ones 17–19 , ?2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones 28–31 , and -naphthopyrans 32–35 , ?2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine-2,5-dione 46 , -pyrano-[4,3-b]pyran-2,5-dione 47 , -pyrano[3,2-c]benzopyran-2,5-dione 48 , -pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-6-ones 49 and 50 , -pyrano[2,3-d]pyrirnidin-7-ones 51 and 52 derivatives. In the reaction of 2 with 1,3-diketones trisubsti tuted pyrroles 14–16 were formed. Selective removal of benzyloxycarbonyl group was achieved by cat alytic transfer hydrogenation with Pd/C in the presence of cyclohexene to afford free 3-amino compounds 7 , 8 , 20 , 36–38 and 53–57 in yields better than 80%.     

New Antifungal Chromenyl Ketones and their Pentacyclic Dimers from Hypericum revolutum VAHL

The structure of 3 (hyperevoline) was established by X-ray analysis as 1,1′-[1,13,13a,13b-tetrahydro-5,8,10-trihydroxy-2,2,6,9,13,13-hexamethyl-2H, 7aH-pyrano[3,2-c:4,5,6-d′e′]di[1]benzopyran-4, 11-diyl]bis[2-methyl-1-propanone]. The structures of the isolated compounds were established by spectroscopic (UV, IR, EI-MS, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR) and chemical (acetylation and acidic dimerization) methods.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new derivatives of pyrano[4',3':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine and new heterocyclic systems

Taking into account previously obtained biological results on some polyheterocyclic compounds (containing different heteroatoms) and in particular on several 8-amino-5-isopropyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines Ia-v we have carried out the synthesis of twentyone 8-amino-5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-(methylthio)-1,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[4’’,3’’:4’,5’]pyrido[3’,2’:4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines 6. Therefore we have slightly modified the structure of the previously studied I introducing at C-5 an isobutyl group instead of the previously examined isopropyl ones in order to see if this variation (changing a little the lipophilicity) will affect the biological activity. Furthermore thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-8-thione 7 and their S-alkylated 8 were synthesized. Finally by alkylation of 5-isobutyl-2,2-dimethyl-10-thioxo-1,4,10,11-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-8(9H)-one 3 with alkyl dichlorides (bifunctional reagents) we realized the cyclization of a thiazole or thiazine ring on the [b] side of the pyrimidine ring with formation of the new condensed pentaheterocyclic systems: pyrano[4'',3'':4',5']pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-one 11 and pyrano[4''',3''':4'',5'']pyrido[3'',2'':4',5']thieno[3',2':4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-8-one 12. It was found that some of the synthesized compounds showed interesting antimicrobial activity (by agar diffusion method) against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacilli strains.     

Annelated piperazinyl-7,8-dihydro-6H-thiopyrano[3,2-d]pyrimidines

Tricyclic analogs of piperazinylthiopyrano[3,2-d]pyrimidine hypoglycemic agents were prepared. The angular tricyclic systems, 8,9-dihydro-7H-thiopyrano[2,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine and 8,9-dihydro-7H-tetrazolo[1,5-a]thiopyrano[2,3-e]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized from 2,4-dichloro-7,8-dihydro-6H-thiopyrano[3,2-d]pyrimidine in three step sequences. Derivatives of the linear tricyclic system, 5,6-dihydro-7H-thiopyrano[3,2-d][1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-a]pyrimidine, were prepared by condensation of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole with ethyl 3-oxo-tetrahydropyran-2-carboxylate. The tricyclic heteroaryl-piperazines lacked significant hypoglycemic activity.     

Synthesis of C-nor-4,6-secocamptothecin and related compounds

Cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted 3-aminomethylene-4-chromanones gave in good yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-5H-pyrano[3,2-c][1]benzopyran-2-ones only in the case of aromatic N-substitution. Dehydrochlorination with triethylamine of these adducts afforded N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5H-pyrano[3,2-c][1]benzopyran-2-ones in good to moderate yield. The cycloaddition to 3-dimethylaminomethylene-4-chromanone led directly to 3-chloro-4-dimethylamino-5H-pyrano[3,2-c][1]benzopyran-2-one.

Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, mainly 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques. Compound 1 exhibited cytotoxicity against KB and KB_V 200 cells with IC₅₀ values greater than 50 μg/mL, respectively.

The occurrence of a partial isomerization of the differently annulated isomers to a common, open-chain structure is discussed.

A new approach to the 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine system is described. 5,6-Disubstituted 3-benzoylamino-2H-pyran-2-ones 3a,b , prepared from the corresponding 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds 1a,b and methyl (Z)-2-benzoylamino-3-dimethylaminopropenoate ( 2 ), were converted into 3-benzoylamino-6-(2-dimethylamino-1-ethenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2H-pyran-2-one ( 4a ) and 5-acetyl derivative 4b . The exchange of the dimethylamino group in 4a,b with aromatic amines 5a-f,m , héteroaromatic amines 5g-i , and benzylamines 5j-l produced 5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-benzoylamino-6-(2-arylamino- or heteroarylamino-or benzylamino-1-ethenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones 6a-l , and its 5-acetyl analog 6m . The compounds 6 were cyclized in basic media into 2H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives 7a-h . Analogously react also α-amino acid derivatives 8a-c and 11 as nitrogen nucleophiles producing 9a-c, 10 and 12 .

Cycloaddition of dichloroketone to N,N-disubstituted (E)-4-aminomethylene-3,4-dihydro-1-benzoxepin-5(2H)-ones gave N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyrano[3,2-d]-1-benzoxepin-2-ones II, which are derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 2H-pyrano[3,2-d]-1-benzoxepin. Dehydrochlorination with triethylamine of II afforded N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrano-[3,2-d]-1-benzoxepin-2-ones III in good to moderate yields. In the triethylamine treatment of IIh (NR₂ = diphenylamino), 3-chloro-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrano[3,2-d]-1-benzoxepin-2-one was isolated in low yield near to IIIh, whereas IIc (NR² = diisopropylamino) gave in low yield 4-diisopropylamino-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrano(3,2-d)-1-benzoxepin-2-one.     

Pyrrolocoumarin derivatives as potential photoreagents toward DNA

A number of new methyl derivatives of linear and angular pyrrolocoumarins were synthesized by direct Fischer's indole synthesis. In the same way some linear 2H,10H-pyrano[2,3-b]carbazol-2-one and angular 2H,7H-pyrano[3,2-c]carbazol-2-one were prepared. The synthesis was performed starting from the 4-methyl-7-aminocoumarin and methyl groups were introduced into positions which look most promising for the photoreactivity of the compounds toward DNA.     

Syntheses of 7H-pyrido-and 7H-pyrano[2,3,4-kl]acridin-2(3H)-ones from 9-chloroacridines

A method for peri-annulation of the pyridine or pyran ring to acridine was developed and used to obtain 7H-pyrido-and 7H-pyrano[2,3,4-kl]acridin-2(3H)-ones. The peri-groups were formed by a reaction of 9-chloro-1-nitroacridine with a CH-acid (malononitrile, ethyl cyanoacetate, and ethyl malonate) followed by reduction of the nitro group, or by a reaction of 1-amino-10-methylacridone with PCl₅ and then with a CH-acid. Replacement of the chlorine atom in 9-chloro-1-methoxyacridines by the residue of the CH-acid with subsequent heating in an acidic medium afforded 7H-pyrano[2,3,4-kl]acridin-2(3H)-ones, which belong to a novel heterocyclic system.
