A method was developed for the synthesis of 4-halo-3-(phenylamino)-furo[3,4-c]pyridin-1(3H)-ones by the reaction of 4-halo-3-hydroxyfuro[3,4-c]pyridin-1(3H)-ones with aniline at room temperature.     

Cyclofunctionalization of 6-alkenylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones with arenesulfenyl chlorides

Reactions of 6-allylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one with arenesulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of addition of the latter at the exocyclic double bond, while analogous reactions in acetic acid in the presence of LiClO₄ were accompanied by intramolecular electrophilic cyclization involving the N⁷ atom. 6-Cinnamylsulfanylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one reacted with arenesulfenyl chlorides in acetic acid in the absence of electrolyte to produce fused pyrazolo[4′,3′: 5,6]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine derivatives. Introduction of a bulky phenyl group into position 1 of the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine system reduces the yield of the corresponding intramolecular cyclization product at N⁷ as a result of concurrent formation of acyclic addition product.

Alkylation of 2-(hydroxyimino)-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]-pyrimidin-3(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Alkylation products were obtained from ethyl 2-(hydroxyimino)-7-methyl-3-oxo-5-aryl-2,3- dihydro-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-6-carboxylates at the treatment with alkyl halides, dimethyl sulfate, and diazomethane. Diazomethane alkylated the initial substrate at the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group of the thiazolidine fragment, the other reagents, at the oxygen atom of the hydroxyimino group.

New Strategy of the Synthesis of 3,4-Dihydropyrimido[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]benzimidazol-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

A new procedure has been developed for preparative synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimido[1,2-a]-benzimidazol-2(1H)-ones by thermal intramolecular heterocyclization of 3-[2-(propylsulfanyl)- and 2-(benzylsulfanyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]propanehydrazides and 3-[2-(benzylsulfanyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]-propanamide.     

Electrophilic heterocyclization of 6-alken(yn)ylsulfanyl-pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

6-Allylsulfanyl-1-arylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones react with iodine and sulfuric acid to give angular pyrazolothiazolopyrimidine derivatives. The reaction of 6-(prop-2-yn-1-ylsulfanyl)-1-(4-tolyl)-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-one with sulfuric acid gives angularly fused pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,3]thiazolo-[3,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one, whereas in the reaction with sodium methoxide linearly fused pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,3]-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one was formed. Linearly fused pyrazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]thiazole derivatives were also obtained by reaction of 1-aryl-6-(3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ylsulfanyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones with sulfuric acid.     

A facile one-pot synthesis of 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-5-ones

Abstract  The reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one or its 2-methylthio derivative with hydrazonoyl halides, in the presence of triethylamine, yielded 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The structure of the latter compounds was further confirmed by reaction of 2-mercapto-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one with the appropriate active chloromethylenes followed by coupling of the products with benzenediazonium chloride to afford the non-isolable azo-coupling products which converted, in situ, to 6,7,8,9-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,5-a]pyrimidin-5-ones. The reaction mechanism was proposed and the products were screened for their biological activity. Some of the newly synthesized compounds had a moderate effect against some bacterial and fungal species. Graphical abstract        

New Synthesis of Pyrano[4,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridines

A new efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of highly biologically active pyrano-[4,3-d]pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines on the basis of Smiles rearrangement of ethyl [(8-alkyl(aryl)-5-cyano-3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-6-yl)oxy]acetates. Intermediate acetohydrazides have also been isolated. The proposed procedure is advantageous due to the possibility of avoiding experimentally difficult chlorination stage.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial screening of pyrano[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]chromene derivatives of 1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazoles

A new series of twenty four derivatives of pyrano[3,2-c]chromene IVa-x bearing 1H-pyrazole were synthesized by a one pot, base-catalyzed cyclocondensation reaction of 1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde Ia-l, malononitrile II and 4-hydroxycoumarin IIIa-b. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectral data. All the synthesized compounds were screened against six bacterial pathogens, namely B. subtilis, C. tetani, S. pneumoniae, S. typhi, V. cholerae, E. coli and for antifungal activity against two fungal pathogens, A. fumigatus and C. albicans using the broth microdilution MIC method. Some of the compounds were found to be equipotent or more potent than commercial drugs against most of employed strains, as evident from the screening data.

Synthesis and structures of benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">cd</Emphasis>]furo[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>]indol-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-one derivatives

A procedure was developed for the synthesis of derivatives of the new heterocyclic system, benzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indole, based on the cyclodehydration of 6-acylmethyloxy-1-alkyl-benzo[cd]indol-2(1H)-ones. Either 7- or 8-aryl derivatives of benzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indol-4(5H)-ones can be prepared depending on the reaction conditions. The molecular and crystal structures of 7- and 8-phenylbenzo[cd]furo[2,3-f]indol-4(5H)-ones were established by X-ray diffraction.

Treatment of 5-amino-1,3-dialkyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones with sodium nitrite in aqueous HCl gave 1,3-dialkyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine-2,5(3H,4H)-diones which were nitrated with potassium nitrate in sulfuric acid to 6-nitro derivatives, and the latter underwent recyclization into 4-amino-1,3-dialkyl-5-(1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ones by the action of hydrazine hydrate.

It was found that the condensation of two equivalents of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one or 4-hydroxycoumarin with arylglyoxals in boiling formic acid leads to 4H-furo[3,2-c]-pyran-4-ones or 4H-furo[3,2-c]chromen-4-ones, respectively.     

Fused Pyrimidine Systems: XVII. Imidazo- and Pyrimidopyrido[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-4(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

2-(Allylamino)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one was converted to linearly fused dihydroimidazo- [1,2-a]pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine on heating in polyphosphoric acid, whereas its reactions with molecular iodine and chlorosulfanylarenes afforded mainly angularly fused analogs. 2-(Cinnamylamino)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidin- 4(3H)-one reacted with polyphosphoric acid and chlorosulfanylarenes to give linear pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimido-[1,2-a]pyrimidinones, and its iodocyclization led to the formation of angularly fused derivative.

Methods of synthesis were developed for 7-(furan-2-yl)-substituted 7,8,10,10a-tetrahydrobenzo[c] chromen-6,9-diones by regioselective [4+2]-cycloaddition of coumarin-3-carboxylic acids to 2-(3-trimethylsiloxybuta- 1,3-dien-1-yl)furans. The [4+2]-cycloaddition was efficiently catalyzed with L-proline.

A series of new phthalazin-1-ones was obtained with a substituted 2-nitrophenyl group in the position 2 and various substituents in the position 4.     

Reactions of 2-(2-propynylsulfanyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]thieno[2,3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyrimidin-4(<Emphasis Type="Italic">3H</Emphasis>)-one with arylsulfenyl chlorides

2-(2-propynylsulfanyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one with arylsulfenyl chlorides in chloroform gave products of anti-Markownikoff Ad _E-addition. The use of nitromethane as solvent in the presence of lithium perchlorate additives favored intramolecular electrophilic cyclization into 1-arylsulfanyl-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thieno[3,2-e][1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]-pyrimidin-5-one.
