Condensed Thienopyrimidines. 14. Synthesis of 10H-Thiopyrano[4',3':4',5']thieno[2',3':4,5]pyrimido[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazines

Reaction of a substituted 2-aminothienothiopyran with methyl(phenyl) isothiocyanate, intramolecular cyclization of the obtained N'-methyl(phenyl) thioureido derivatives, and work up of the cyclization products with hydrazine hydrate gave 2-hydrazinodihydrothiopyranothienopyrimidines. Treatment of the latter with pyruvic acid gave the novel 10H-thiopyrano[4',3':4',5']thieno[2',3':4,5]pyrimido[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazines.     

Synthesis and Properties of Derivatives of the new Heterocyclic System Benz[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrido[3',2';4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyrimidine

Derivatives of a new heterocyclic system - benz[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrido[3',2';4,5]thieno[2,3-e]pyrimidine have been obtained by successive reactions in three stages - alkylation of 3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones with 2-chloromethylbenzylimidazole to give 2-benzimidazolylmethylthio-3-cyanopyridines, closing the thiophene ring in the latter to form 3-amino-2-(benzimidazolyl-2)thieno[2,3-b]pyridines, and cyclization of the pyrimidine ring by acylation with carboxylic acid anhydrides or chlorides.     

Condensed Pyridopyrimidines. 7. Synthesis of Condensed Triazolo[4,3-c]- and Tetrazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines

Novel dihydro-5H-pyrano[3',4':5',6']pyrido[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines and 1,2,3,4-tetrazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines have been synthesized from 2-amino-3-cyano-7,7-dimethyl-7,8-dihydro-5H-pyrano[4,3-b]pyridine.     

Synthesis and Properties of 6-Amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

We have established that when 5-chloro-6-[cyano(2,3-dihydro-1-R-benzo[d]azol-2-yl)methyl]-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles are reacted with nucleophilic reagents (aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydrogen sulfide), annelation of the five-membered ring occurs on the [b] face of the pyrazine with formation of 6-amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles and 6-amino-7-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile respectively. Further heating with excess of acylating reagent leads to formation of a novel heterocyclic system 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrazino[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-e]pyrimidine. Reaction of vicinal dinitriles with hydrazine hydrate leads to the novel system 1H-pyrrolo[2',3':5,6]pyrazino[2,3-d]pyridazine.     

Studies on mechanisms of the rearrangement of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines into thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines

Recyclization of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidines was studied experimentally and theoretically by B3LYP/6-31G** calculations in the gas phase and in solution (EtOH). The experimentally observed characteristic features of the isomerization (the possibility of the Dimroth rearrangement occurring by the ANRORC mechanism and high energy barriers in acid-catalyzed reactions) were confirmed by quantum chemical calculations. Substituents in the triazole ring were found to play the principal role in the rearrangement. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and Reactions of 4-Oxiranylmethylfuro[3,2-b]pyrroles and Their Benzo Derivatives

Methyl 4-oxiranylmethyl-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylates 2a-c and methyl 1-oxiranylmethyl-1H-benzo[4,5]furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-2-carboxylate (2d) were prepared by reaction of the appropriate starting compounds 1a-d with excess chloromethyloxirane. The compounds 2a-d undergo oxirane ring opening by heterocyclic amines (morpholine, pyrrolidine, piperidine or 4-methylpiperazine) giving N-2-hydroxy-3-heteroaminopropyl-substituted compounds 3a-f or substituted 4,5-dihydrofuro[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]oxazin-8-ones 4a-e.     

Synthesis and Properties of Substituted Isoxazolo[3',4':4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridines

We synthesized derivatives of a novel heterocyclic system, isoxazolo[3',4':4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine by sequential conversions in three steps: isomerization of 2-(2-R-ethylthio-2-oxo)-3-pyridyl cyanides obtained by alkylation from substituted 3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones by -halomethyl ketones in alkaline medium, to form 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridines; diazotization of the amino group followed by nucleophilic substitution of the diazonium group by an azido group, bypassing the step of isolating the diazonium salts; and thermolysis of the azides formed.

Synthesis and reactions of 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyridine

(E)-3-{5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-yl}propenoic acid (I) was prepared from 5-[3-(tri-fluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde under the Doebner’s conditions. The obtained acid was converted to the corresponding azide II, which was cyclized by heating in diphenyl ether to 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one (III). This compound was aromatized with phosphorus oxychloride to chloroderivative IV which was reduced with H₂NNH₂-Pd/C to the title compound V. 2-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-oxide (VI) was synthesized by reaction of V with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid in dichloromethane. On treatment of VI with benzoyl chloride and potassium cyanide (Reissert-Henze reaction), corresponding 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carbonitrile (VII) resulted. 5-Amino-2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-ium-4-methylbenzene sulfonate (VIII) was prepared by direct N-amination of the title compound V with 1-[(aminooxy)sulfonyl]-4-methylbenzene in dichloromethane. Then, VIII was transformed to a non-isolated zwitterionic N-imid IX which afforded the corresponding furo[3,2-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine carboxylic acid esters X, XI by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with dimethyl but-2-ynedionate (DBD) or ethyl propiolate. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by their IR and NMR spectra.
