Dense compounds of C,H, N,and O atoms: Nitramine derivatives of diimino- and dioxodecahydro-1 h,5h-diimidazo-[4,5-b:4′,5′-e]pyrazine

Guanidine condensed with 1,4-diformyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydroxypiperazine 1 to give 2,6-diiminodecahydro-1H,5H-diimidazo[4,5-b:4′,5′-e]pyrazine 3 isolated as the tetrahydrochloride salt. nitric acid (100%) at −40°C converted the bisguanidine 3 to 2,6-dinitrimino-4,8-dinitrodecahydro-1H,5H-diimidazo[4,5-b:4′,5′-e]- pyrazine 8 isolated as a dihydrate, whereas nitration by nitronium tetrafluoroborate at 0° to 25°C afforded 2,6-diimino-4,8-dinitrodecahydro-1H,5H-diimidazo[4,5-b:4′,5′-e]pyrazine 9 isolate as the monohydrated bistetrafluoroborate salt, and treatmetn with nitric acid (100%) and acetic anhydride or phosphorus pentoxide converted the bisguanidine 3 to 2,6-dioxo-1,3,4,5,7,8-hexanitrodecahydro-1H,5H-diimidazo[4,5-b:4′,5′-e]pyrazine 4 , also obtained from the tetra N-nitro compound 8 · 2 H₂O and from the dinitramine 9 · 2 BHF₄ · H₂O after similar treatment. The cis-syn-cis- configuration of the tricyclic bisurea 4 and bisguanidine 9 was confirmed by X-ray crys-tallographic analysis. Nitrosation by nitrous acid or by dinitrogen tetroxide converted the bisguanidine 3 to a hydrated 2,6-dinitrosimino-4,8-dinitrosodecahydro-1H,5H-diimidazo[4,5-b:4′,5′-]pyrazine 10 · 2.5 H₂O, whereas treatment with nitrosonium tetrafluo-roborate afforded the bistetrafluoroborate salt of 4,8-dinitroso derivative 11 · 2 BHF 4 . The nitrosamines 10 and 11 were converted to the tetranitro compound 8 · 2 H₂O on treatment with nitric acid (100%) at −40°C. Treatmnt with fluoroboric acid etherate in acetonitrile converted nitroimino groups in compound 8 · 2 H₂O and nitrosimino groups in compound 10 · 2.5 H₂O to imino groups in compounds 9 · 2 BHF₂ · H₂O and 11 · 2 HBF₄ respectively.

The cyclocondensation of 5‐hydroxy‐pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 1 with malonates gives pyrano[2′,3′:4,5]‐pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 2 . Nitration of 1 and reduction with zinc in the presence of carboxylic acids/anhydrides gave 2‐alkyloxazolo[5′,4′:4,5]pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 4 , which were ring‐opened to 6‐aminopyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 5, 6 and 7 . Cyclization of 6‐aminopyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 6 with benzoylchlorides 8 gave 2‐aryloxazolo[5′,4′:4,5]pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 9 . Reaction conditions for the cyclization have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).     

Synthesis of some pyrimido[4′,5′:4,5]thieno[2,3-b]quinolines and related heterocycles

Several thieno[2,3-b]quinolines 6a-i have been synthesized.

The convergent syntheses of 3-deazapurine 2′-deoxy-β-D -ribonucleosides and 2′,3′-dideoxy-D -ribonucleosides, including 3-deaza-2′-deoxyadenosine ( 1a ) and 3-deaza-2′,3′-dideoxyadenosine ( 1b ) is described. The 4-chloro-lH-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridinyl anion derived from 5 was reacted with either 2′-deoxyhalogenose 6 or 2′,3′-dideoxyhalogenose 10 yielding two regioisomeric (N¹ and N³) glycosylation products. They were deprotected and converted into 4-substituted imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2′-deoxy-β-D -ribonucleosides and 2′,3′-dideoxy-D -ribonucleosides. Compounds 1a and 1b proved to be more stable against proton-catalyzed N-glycosylic bond hydrolysis than the parent purine nucleosides and were not deaminated by adenosine deaminase.     

Polyazasteroids II.. 1,2,4-Triazolol[3′,4′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin- 11(12H)ones,imidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2′,1′:2,3] pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones

Starting with 2-substituted quinoline-3,4-dicarboxylic acids, a series of substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinone-3-thiones were obtained. The latter compounds were converted to the three novel polyazasteroid series: 1,2,4-Triazolo[3′,4′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]-quinolin-11(12H)ones, imidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5c]quinolin-11(12H)ones and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones. The intermediate 3-hydrazino-1,2-dihydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinones and nitrous acid gave the 3-azido derivatives rather than the tetrazolo compounds.

Substituted condensed thieno[2,3‐b]thiophene derivatives 4 and 6 were synthesized by nucleophilic displacement of the chloroderivatives 3 and 5 .     

Syntheses of 8-aminoimidazo[4′,5′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimiciines: Linear tricyclic analogs of adenine

The syntheses of 8-aminoimidazo[4′,5′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines (7), stretched-out versions of the naturally occuring nucleoside base adenine, are reported. Their preparation involves conversion of purine into 5-arninoimidazo[4,5-b]pyrimidine-6-carbonitrile ( 1 ) by reaction with malononitrile, followed by construction of the pyrimidine ring in two steps via the ethoxymethylene derivative 3 . 8-Azapurine can be converted to 8-amino-1,2,3-triazolo[4′,5′:5,6]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 8 in a similar fashion.     

Synthetic approaches to 4,8‐dimethyl‐5′‐(N‐pyridiniummethyl)‐ 4′,5′‐dihydropsoralens and 4,8‐dimethyl‐5′‐ (N‐aminomethyl)‐ 4′,5′‐dihydropsoralens

New synthetic approaches to 4,8‐dimethyl‐5′‐(N‐pyridiniummethyl)‐4′,5′‐dihydropsoralens and 4,8‐dimemyl‐5′‐(N‐aminomethyl)‐4′,5′‐dihydropsoralens are described. The 5′‐halomethyl‐4′,5′‐dihydro‐psoralen precursors are formed by electrophilic ring closures of 4,8‐dimethyl‐6‐allyl‐7‐hydroxycoumarin. The ring‐closure reactions may also be applied to the synthesis of 5′‐halomethyl‐4‐methyl‐4′,5′‐dihydroangelicins. The compounds are potential therapeutic agents for improved psoralen ultraviolet A radiation treatment.

A mechanism of reaction, which hypothesizes the action of sodium hydrosulfite in an asymmetic form, is proposed. The results of single-crystal X-ray investigation on 7,8-dihydro-6H,10H-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazin-10-one (R = 0.032 for 863 reflections) and (8-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H,6H-pyrimido[2,1-b]- [1,3]thiazin-6-on-7-yl)sulfamic acid, sodium salt (R = 0.028 for 3507 reflections) are reported.

In addition, the reaction of hydrazino derivative 12 with reagents such as formic acid and triethyl orthoformate yielded the fused tetraheterocyclic 8-cyano-9- ethoxy-5-(2′-nitrophenyl)- 7-phenylpyrido[3′,2′:4,5]thieno[2,3-e]-1, 2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimidine system 19 .     

The crystal and molecular structure of 5-N-methyl-β-d-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-S-triazine-4,6-dione: Molecular modeling studies on the pattern of alkylation of β-D-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-s-triazin-4-one-6-thione

The involvement of the 5′-hydroxyl group on β-D-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-s-triazin-4-one-6-thione ( 1b ), to form an intramolecular covalent adduct at C6, is postulated to explain the formation of almost equal amounts of 5-N-alkyl-β-D-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-s-triazin-4-one-6-thione and 5-N-alkyl-β-D-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-s-triazine-4,6-dione during alkylation of 1b . An X-ray crystallographic study was conducted on 5-N-methyl-β-D-arabinofurano[1′,2′:4,5]oxazolo-s-triazine-4,6-dione ( 2a ) and its solid state structure was established. This was compared to the energy minimized structure of the same compound that was generated by the molecular modeling program, MACROMODEL. Force field calculations (Allinger's MM2) on this structure and other intermediates lend support to the concept of formation of the intramolecular covalent adduct.

A series of monomethoxynaphtho[1′,2′:4,5]thieno[2,3-c]quinolines has been prepared by photocyclization of the appropriate N-methoxyphenyl-1-chloronaphtho[2,1-b]thiophene-2-carboxamides. Some of the lactams obtained were converted into the thiolactams and their S-methyl derivatives. The lactams were also converted into the corresponding 6-chloro derivatives. Some of these were catalytically dechlorinated into the monomethoxynaphtho[1′,2′:4,5]thieno[2,3-c]quinolines which were then quaternized into the N-methyl quaternary salts.
