The boron trifluoride catalyzed 1,4-addition of 2,3-dihydro-5-methylfuran to N-(p-methoxy-benzylidene)-1,4-benzodioxan-6-amine (II) gave 2 pairs of epimers, 2,3,3a,4,5,8,9,11b-octahydro-4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-11b-methyl-p-dioxino[2,3-g]furo[3,2-c]quinoline (IIIa and b) and 2,3,7,8,8a,9.10,1la-octahydro-8-(p-methoxyphenyl)-11a-methyl-p-dioxino[2,3-f]furo[3,2-c]quinoline (IVa and b). When N-(p-methoxybenzylidene)-3,4-methylenedioxyaniline (V) was condensed with 2,3-dihydro-5-methylfuran in an analogous manner, a mixture of 2 epimers of 2,3,3a,4,5,10b-hexahydro-4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-10b-methyl[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g]furo[3,2-c]quinoline (VIa and b) was isolated. Treatment of this mixture with sulfur afforded 6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-8-methyl-1,3-dioxolo[4,5-g]quinoline-7-ethanol (VIII). Structural assignments for all of the products were made from NMR spectra. None of the compounds possessed appreciable biological activity.

When 1-acetyl-6-[(p-hydroxybenzylidene)amino]indoline (XVI) was treated with 2,3-dihydro-5-methylfuran (II), two epimers of dl-7-acetyl-3,3a,4,5,7,8,9,10b-octahydro-4-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-10b-methyl-2H-furo[3,2-c]pyrrolo[3,2-g]quinoline (XVIIa and b) were obtained. dl-2,3,3a,4,5,6b,8,9,9a,10,11,12b-Dodecahydro-4,10-bis(p-methoxyphenyl)-6b,12b-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]furo[2′,3′:4,5]pyrido[2,3-g]quinoline (XX) was formed when 2,3-dihydro-5-methylfuran was allowed to react with N,N'-bis(p-methoxybenzylidene)-p-phenylcnediamine (XIX).

Synthesis of 2,3,10,11 -tetraalkoxy-substituted tetrahydrobenzo [a] naphtho [1,2-g] quinolizines

2 Four3,10,11-tetraalkoxy-substituted 5,6,15,15a-tetrahydro-8H-benzo[a]naphtho[1,2-g]-quinolizines were prepared by the Pictet-Spengler cyclization of the respective 1-(6,7-dialkoxy-2-naphthylmethyl)-6,7-dialkoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines. The latter compounds were obtained by a chemical reduction of the corresponding dihydro compounds, which, in turn, were formed by a Bischler-Napieralski cyclization of the appropriate amides.

Action des hydrazines sur les acétyl-4 chloro-5 (ou 3) méthyl-3 (ou 5) pyrazoles: Formation d'une pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoléïne,d'hydrazones et de cétazines

The cyclisation of 4-acetyl-5(or 3)-chloropyrazole hydrazones into pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyrazoles does not proceed when the pyrazole is a N-methylated derivative or when the hydrazone is a phenylhydrazone. Instead of 1-azapentalene derivatives, a new pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline and several hydrazones and ketazines have been isolated.     

Synthesis of 4-Amino-substituted-6-hydroxy and 11-hydroxynaphtho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-diones,and the unexpected formation of disubstituted imidazo[4,5,l-i,j]naphtho[2,3-g]quinolin-7-ones

4-Chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8a ) and 6-bromo-4-chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8b ) were reacted with homophthalic anhydride to give tetracyclic compounds 10 and 11 respectively. The 6,11-dihydroxy derivative 12 was prepared in low yield by photochemical addition of benzocyclobutenedione to 4-chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8a ) and in better yield through a Friedel-Crafts reaction of phthalic anhydride with 4-chloro-5,8-dimethoxyquinoline ( 7a ). Whereas 4-chloro-6-hydroxynaphtho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-dione ( 11 ) was substituted by amines in the usual way to the corresponding 4-amino-substituted derivatives, 4-chloro-11-hydroxynaph-tho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-dione ( 10 ) led to a mixture of 4-amino derivatives and the unexpected 2,6-disubstituted-imidazo[4,5,l-I-j]naphtho[2,3-g]quinolin-7-ones, 13a-b .     

Synthesis of condensed tricyclic pyrazolo[3,4-b]thieno[2,3-d]pyridine and related isostere derivatives

These functionalized compounds were obtained, in high overall yield, by an ‘one-pot’ reaction of the chloroester intermediate 4 , possessing the pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine system, with an adequate α-hetero-acetyl ester derivative, in SNAr/Dieckman cyclization type consecutive reactions.     

Inhibitors of platelet aggregation. 4. [1,2,5]Thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridines, 7,8,9,10-Tetrahydro[1,2,5] thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridities,and 8,9-Dihydro-7H-cyclopenta[b][1,2,5] thiadiazolo[3,4-H]quinolines

The condensation of 4-amino-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (IV) with diphenyliodonium-2-earboxylate gave N-(2,1,3-benzothiadiazoI-4-yl)anthranilic acid (V) (28%), which was cyclized with phosphorus oxychloride to 6-chloro[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridine (VI) (84%). Treatment of VI with 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propanethiol hydrochloride in phenol afforded 6-[ [3-(dimethylamino)-propyl]thio] [1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridine (VII) (65%). The reaction of IV with a mixture of methyl and ethyl 2-oxocyclohexanecarboxylate gave the adduct, which was ring closed in Dowtherm to 7,9,10,1 1-tetrahydro[1,2,5] thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridin-6(8H)one (VIII) (70%). Chlorination of VIII with phosphorus oxychloride gave 6-chloro-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridine (IX) (84%), which was condensed with 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propanethiol hydrochloride in phenol yielding 6-[ [3-(dimethylamino)propyl]thio]-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrof 1,2,5]-thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridine (X) (27%). 6-[ [3(1)imethylamino)propyl]thio]-8,9-dihydro-7H-cyclopenta[b] [1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-h]quinoline (XIII) (25%) was prepared similarly from IV and a mixture of methyl and ethyl 2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate via 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-6H-cyclopenta[b][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-h]quinolin-6-one (XI) (85%) and 6-chloro-8,9-dihydro-7H-cyclopenta[b][1,2,5]thiadiazolof3,4-h]quinoline (XII) (56%). The effects of compounds VII-XIII as inhibitors of platelet aggregation are discussed.     

Synthesis and Kinase Inhibitory Potencies of Pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinolines

A new series of pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinoline derivatives, diversely substituted at the 4- or 8-position, were synthesized. The results of the kinase inhibitory potency study demonstrated that the introduction of a bromine atom at the 8-position was detrimental to Haspin inhibition, while the introduction of an alkyl group at the 4-position led to a modification of the kinase inhibition profiles. Altogether, the results obtained demonstrated that new pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinolines represent a novel family of kinase inhibitors with various selectivity profiles.     

Reactivity of 7-(2-dimethylaminovinyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines: Synthesis of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrido[3,4-e]pyrimidine derivatives as potential benzodiazepine receptor ligands. 2

A series of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrido[3,4-e]pyrimidin-6-ones was obtained by reaction of ammonium acetate with ethyl 7-dimethylaminovinylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates and these had been prepared from ethyl 7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates by reaction with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal. Under these conditions the compounds bearing a 2-hydroxy group were also O-alkylated. During the preparation of the ethyl 2-hydroxy-7-methyl-3-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate the corresponding 5-methyl isomer was isolated and identified.     

The syntheses of pyridazino[1,2-a] pyridazine derivatives of furan,pyridazine and pyrrole by diels-alder reactions

The products resulting were furo[3,4-g]pyridazino[1,2-a]-pyridazine-6,10-diones, pyridazino[4,5-g]pyridazino[1,2-a]pyridazine-6,11-diones, and pyrrolo-[3,4-g]pyridazino[1,2-a]pyridazine-6,10-diones, respectively. Some hydrogenations and ring opening reactions were studied.
