Studies on quinoline derivatives and related compounds. VI. A novel displacement reaction of 1-ethylquinolinium iodides with nucleophiles

The reaction of 4-amino- ( 3a ) and 4-anilino-3-carbethoxy-1-ethyl-6,7-methylenedioxy-quinolinium iodide ( 3b ) with nucleophilic reagents produced 7-substituted 4-amino-3-carboxy-1-ethyl-6-hydroxyquinolinium betaines ( 5b-d ) and 7-substituted 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-6-hydroxy-4-phenylimino-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid ( 6b-d ), respectively, which led to 7-substituted 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-6-hydroxy-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids ( 1b-d ) by alkaline hydrolysis. With a variety of 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydroquinoline carboxylates ( 16a-e ) these novel displacement reactions were attempted.     

Indolo[3,3a,4-gh]chinoline und 10a, 6a-Iminopropano-indolo-[3,3a,4-gh]chinoline. Stereospezifische Synthesen und Umlagerungen. Teil II. 9. Mitteilung über synthetische Indolverbindungen

Alkaline hydrolysis of 1-benzyl-4, 4-dicyanoethyl-5-oxo-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo-[cd]indole under controlled conditions leads to 4-benzyl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydro-10a, 6a-iminopropanoindolo[3,3a,4-gh]quinoline-9(10H),12-dione ( 2a ), the first representative of such a ring system. Alkylation of this di-lactam affords the N-monoalkyl ( 2b ), the N, N'-dialkyl ( 3 ), and the N, O-dialkyl ( 4 ) derivatives according to the conditions employed. Treatment of compounds such as 2 with sodium in liquid ammonia results in the opening of one of the lactam rings by a stereoelectronically controlled reductive cleavage of the benzylamine bond; subsequent protonation proceeds stereospecifically to give trans-octahydroindolo[3,3a, 4-gh]quinolines (viz. 5 ). The NMR. spectra and the mechanism of the reductive ring opening are discussed.     

Synthesis,polymerization, and copolymerization of lactam-substituted styrenes

Four new substituted styrene derivatives carrying lactam rings (2-pyrrolidone or 2-piperidone) in para position have been synthesized, namely 4-(2-oxo-3-methylene-pyrrolidinyl)styrene, 4-(2-oxo-3-methylene-piperidinyl)styrene, 4-(p-styryl)-2-pyrrolidone, and 4-(p-styryl)-2-piperidone. Their homopolymerization and copolymerization with styrene, methyl methacrylate, and acrylic acid have been considered. By ring opening of the side lactam groups, the homopolymers are transformed into the corresponding poly aminocarboxylic acids.     

The synthesis of a pyrido[2,3-c]pyridazine: A cinnoline related to 6-fluoronalidixic acid

An analog of the pyrido[2,3-c]pyridazine ring system, 1-ethyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-7-methyl-4-oxopyrido-[2,3-c]pyridazine-3-carboxylic acid ( 13 ), related to both Cinoxacin ( 1 ) and nalidixic acid ( 2 ), has been synthesized. The reductive ring closure of 2-chloro-α-diazo-6-methyl-5-nitro-β-oxo-3-pyridinepropanoic acid, ethyl ester ( 7 ), proved to be the key reaction providing entry into the ring system.     

Structure determination of salvadorin, a novel dimeric dihydroisocoumarin from Salvadora oleoides, by NMR spectroscopy

Salvadorin, a new dimeric dihydroisocoumarin (1), was isolated from the chloroform fraction of Salvadora oleoides. Its chemical structure was established as 8-benzyl-6-[6-(6-ethyl-7-methyl-5,8-dihydro-2-naphthalenyl)-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-8yl]-3, 4-dihyro-1H-isochromen-1-one, through spectroscopic techniques and chemical analysis.     

Synthetic antibacterials. VIII. 7-(1′-alkylhydrazino)-1,8-naphthyridines and related compounds

Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of 7-(1′-alkylhydrazino)-1,8-naphthyridines related to nalidixic acid were investigated. Namely, treatment of 7-alkylamino-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids 1a-d with sodium nitrite in the presence of hydrochloric acid gave the 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-7-(N-nitrosoalkylamino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acids 2a-d , which upon reacting with zinc dust in acetic acid gave the 7-(1′-alkylhydrazino)-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylicacids 3a-d. The compound 3a was alternately obtained by the reaction of 7-chloro-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphth-yridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 4 ) with methylhydrazine. The reaction of 7-chloro-4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 5 ) with methylhydrazine gave the 4-hydroxy-7-(1′-methylhydrazino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 6 ), which upon treatment with alkyl halides afforded the 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-7-(1′-methyl-hydrazino)-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridines 3a and 3e-g. The reaction of the appropriate 3 with ketones gave the corresponding 7-(1′-methylalkylidenehydrazino)-1,8-naphthyridines 7a-c and 8a-b. Among the compounds prepared, certain 3 and 7 exhibited good activity against Gram-negative bacteria.     

Synthesis of a novel analog of nalidixic acid: 1-Ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(trifluororaethyl)-1,8-naphthyridine- 3-carboxylic acid

Reaction of nalidixic acid ( 1 ) with thionyl chloride and subsequent treatment with ethanol gave a mixture of ethyl 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(trichloromethyl)-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylate ( 3 ) and diethyl 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3,7-dicarboxylate ( 4 ). Ethyl1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(trichloromethyl)-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylate ( 3 ) was reacted with antimony pentafluoride to afford 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(trifluoromethyl)-l,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ( 5 ).     

Reaction ofβ,β -dimethyldivinyl ketone with 2,5-dimethyl- and 1,2,5-trimethyl-4-piperidones

1-(3-Oxo-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-yl)-2,5-dimethyl-4-piperidone, 5-(3-oxo-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-yl)-2, 5-dimethyl-4-piperidone, and 5-(3-oxo-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-yl)-1,2,5-trimethyl-4-piperidone were synthesized. In the absence of a catalyst,-dimethyldivinyl ketone adds to 2,5-dimethyl-4-piperidone at the 1-position, while in the presence of alkali it adds at the 5-position.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 350–351, March, 1971.     

Alkyl nitrate nitration of active methylene compounds. Nitration of 1-methyl4-piperidone, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and 1,3-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinone

The reaction of 1-methyl-4-piperidone ( 1 ) with amyl nitrate in the potassium tert-butoxidetetrahydrofuran system gave dipotassium 5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-piperidinedinitronate ( 4 ) in 78% yield. Similar treatment of 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone ( 2 ) afforded potassium 3-methyl-2-oxopyrrolidinenitronate ( 7 ) in 85% yield. In contrast, the nitration of 1,3-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinone ( 3 ) led to opening of the lactam ring with the formation of amyl 2-aza-2-methyl-5-nitrohexanoate ( 10 ) in 40% yield. Acidification of disalt 4 did not cause ring opening but gave the dipolar ion of 1-methyl-3-nitro 4-hydroxy-5-aci-nitro-Δ³-tetrahydropyridinium (6).     

Synthesis and reactions of esters of 3-cyano-2-OXO-5,6-tri(tetra)methylene-1,2-dihydroisonicotinic and 2-amino-3-Ethoxycarbonyl-5,6-tri(tetra)-methyleneisonicotinic acids

Esters of 3-cyano-2-oxo-5, 6-tri (tetra)-methylene-1, 2-dihydroisonicotinic and 2-amino-3-ethoxycarbonyl-5, 6-tri (tetra)methyleneisorticotinic acids have been obtained by the reaction of 2-oxocyclopentyl(hexyl)glyoxylic acid esters with malonic acid derivatives. Boiling the esters containing a tetramethylene ring with 75% sulfuric acid gave hydrolysis of the ester and cyano groups to carboxyl with subsequent decarboxylation at the 3 position and the formation of 2-oxo-5, 6-tetramethylene-1, 2-dihydroisonicotinic acid (2-oxo-1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8-hexahydroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid).Perm Pharmaceutical Institute, Perm, 614000.

Studies on quinoline derivatives and related compounds. II. Synthesis of 5-substituted 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid

The cyclization of m-substituted anilinomethylenemalonates ( 1 ) in the presence of polyphosphate ester and some other cyclizing agents gave mixtures of the isomeric ethyl 5- ( 2 ) and 7-substituted 4-hydroxy-3-quinolinecarboxylates ( 3 ), which led to mixtures of the corresponding quinolinecarboxylic acids ( 4 and 5 ) by hydrolysis. The proportions of 4 and 5 in the mixtures were determined on the basis of their nmr spectra. Novel 5-chloro- ( 8a ), 5-methyl- ( 8b ) and 5-nitro-1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids were prepared and evaluated for antimicrobial activities. No significant activity, however, was noted.     

一种铀(Ⅵ)配合物的水热合成、结构与性质

UO₂(EPC)₂ (EPC=5-ethyl-3-pyridinecarboxylate) was synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of UO₂(NO₃)₂ ·6H₂O with imazethapyr [2-(4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-5-ethyl-3-pyridine-carboxylic acid] at 120 ℃, which 2-(4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl group was removed under this condition to result in the formation of 5-ethyl-3-pyridinecarboxylate ligand (EPC). The structure and fluorescent property of the synthesized complex is also reported. CCDC: 645641.     

Propanal in the Syntheses of Alkyl-substituted 3-Cyano-2-piperidone, 3-Cyano-2,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrindin-2(1H)-one, and 3-Cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thione

Condensation of propanal with cyanothioacetamide and morpholine gave 3-cyano-4-ethyl-5-methyl-6-morpholino-2-piperidone, the structure of which was studied by X-ray analysis. Reaction of propanal with cyanothioacetamides and cycloalkanone enamines gave 3-cyano-4-ethyl-2,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrindin-2(1H)-one and 3-cyano-4-ethyl-5,6-hexamethylenepyridine-2(1H)-thione. The latter was used for the preparation of substituted 2-benzyloxycarbonylmethylthiopyridine and 3-amino-2-benzyloxycarbonylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1053–1059, July, 2005.     

Synthesis of new fundamental heterocycles. Part VII. Synthesis of 2-azaxanthene

2-Azaxanthone ( 5 ) has been conveniently prepared by condensation of the morpholine enamine of 1-benzyl-4-piperidone witli salicylaldehyde followed by chromium trioxide oxidation and subsequent aromatization. Lithium aluminum hydride reduction of 5 afforded the new fundamental heterocycle 2-azaxanlhene.     

The Regiospecific C-3 Lithiation of 5-Ethyl-2-furoic acid: An Approach to Key Natural Product Intermediates

Treatment of 5-ethyl-2-furoic acid with n -butyl-lithium in tetrahydrofuran gave regiospecific C-3 lithiation, whereas treatment of the same acid with lithium di-isopropylamide (LDA) afforded only starting material. The synthetic utility of dilithiated 5-ethyl-2-furoic acid has been demonstrated with the synthesis of two substituted 3-benzyl-5-ethyl-2-furoic acid derivatives which are key intermediates for the preparation of naturally occurring cytotoxic 2-ethylfuronaphthoquinones. Reaction of the C-3 lithiated species with two equivalents of benzaldehyde and subsequent reduction affored the corresponding 3-benzyl-5-ethyl-2-furoic acids. An alternative route to 5-ethyl-2-furoic acid has been described allowing for a more convenient preparation of longer-chain 5-alkyl-2-furoic acids.     

Synthesis and acid-catalyzed transformations of solvomercuration adducts of 2-nitrobenzylcyclopropane. First stable metalated 1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions

Sovomercuration adducts of 2-nitrobenzyl-, 2-nitro-4,5-(ethylenedioxy)benzyl-, and 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzylcyclopropanes were synthesized. The adducts reacted with sulfuric, fluorosulfonic, or chlorosulfonic acid to give 3-(2-chloromercurio)ethyl-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions whose stability depended on the nature of substituents in the aromatic ring. Unstable metalated 1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions underwent fast protodemercuration to form metal-free 3-ethyl-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-2,1-benzoxazinium ions. Stable analogs in the above acids did not change to an appreciable extent over a period of 48–72 h. Hydrolysis of stable metalated 1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2,1-benzoxazolium ions afforded only 4-chloromercurio-1-(2-nitroaryl)butan-2-ol.     

Synthesis of certain metabolites and analogs of vitamin B6 and their ring-chain tautomerism

Pyridoxol and pyridoxal on benzylation with dimethylphenylbenzylammonium hydroxide (“leucotrope”) gave 3-O-benzylpyridoxol (IV) and 3-O-benzylpyridoxal (V), respectively. As a possible mechanism of this reaction an ion pair intermediate has been postulated. Oxidation of IV and V with chromic oxide-pyridine-acetic acid complex gave 3-O-benzyl-4-pyridoxic acid lactone (VI), which could also be obtained by benzylation of 4-pyridoxic acid. Treatment of VI with dimethylamine gave 2-methyl-3-benzyloxy-5-hydroxymethylpyridine-4-N,N-dimethylcarbox-amide (X) which oxidized to form the 5-formyl derivative (XI). The latter on hydrolysis yielded the metabolite, 2-methyl-3-hydroxy-5-formylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid (I). When reacted with liquid ammonia, VI gave 3-O-benzyl-4-pyridoxamide (VII) which was then oxidized to give 2-methyl-3-benzyloxypyridine-4,5-dicarboxylic acid cyclicimide(IX). Acid hydrolysis of IX gave another metabolite, 2-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (XIII), which could also be obtained by oxidizing XI with potassium permanganate in water to yield 2-methyl-3-benzyloxy-5-carboxypyridine-4-N,N-dimethylcarboxamide (XII) and subsequent hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid. A positional isomer of I, 2-methyl-3-hydroxy-4-formylpyridine-5-carboxylic acid (XVII) was synthesized starting from 3-O-benzyl-5-pyridoxic acid lactone (XIV) following similar reaction sequences used for the preparation of I. Ring-chain tautomerism has been studied in I, XVII, opianic acid (XVIII), phthalaldehydic acid (XIX) and (2-carboxy-4,5-dimethoxy)-phenylacetaldehyde (XX) in different solvents by nmr and in the solid state by ir spectroscopy. A direct and reliable differentiation between the open form (aldehyde proton in low field) and the ring form (lactol proton in the intermediate field) has been obtained by nmr spectroscopy. In sodium deuteroxide and pyridine-d₅ the open chain form existed exclusively (except for homolog (XX) which is in cyclic form in pyridine-d₅), whereas in 18% hydrogen chloride in deuterium oxide all the compounds are completely in the cyclic form. In hexafluoroacetone hydrate-d₂, XVIII, XIX, and XX exist in the cyclic form whereas I is in the open form. In DMS0-d₆ both cyclic and open-chain forms have been observed in XVIII, XIX and XX. Definite peak assignment for the two forms could not be made in I due to broadening or superimposition with C₆-H. The metabolite I, isometabolite (XVII) and opianic acid (XVIII) form cyclic acetyl derivatives which give a sharp lactol peak. In the solid state XVIII, XIX are in the cyclic form and I and XX in the open-chain form as observed by ir spectroscopy.     

Reaction of Zinc Enolates of Alkyl Esters of Substituted 4-Bromo-3-Oxoalkanoic Acids with Aldehydes

Zinc enolates formed from ethyl 4-bromo-2,2,4-trimethyl-3-oxopentanoate react under the conditions of one- of two-stage synthesis with aliphatic, unsaturated, or aromatic aldehydes to form 6-R-2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydropyran-2,4-diones. Zinc enolates obtained from ethyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxopentanoate, -hexanoate, and -2,2,5-trimethyl-3-oxohexanoate under the similar conditions react with aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes to give mainly 5-R¹-6-R²-3,3-dimethyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydropyran-2,4-diones as E or Z isomers or their mixtures. Zinc enolates generated from the ethyl 4-bromo-2,2-diethyl- or 2-benzyl-2-ethyl-3-oxobutanoates react with aromatic aldehydes to give ethyl 5-R-2-R-2-ethyl-3-oxo-4-pentenoates as E isomers.     

New 7-substituted quinolone antibacterial agents. The synthesis of 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(2-thiazolyl and 4-thiazolyl)-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids

A series of 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(4-thiazolyl)-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids and 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(2-thiazolyl)-3-quinolinecarboxylic acids were prepared. Also prepared was 10-[2-(aminomethyl)-4-thiazolyl]-9-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-methyl-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1,4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid. Analogs with basic amine substituents on the thiazole moiety were found to have antibacterial activity.
