Three 4,7‐diaryl‐2‐ethylsulfanylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazines

The molecular dimensions of 2‐ethylsulfanyl‐7‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐4‐phenylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₂₀H₁₈N₄S, (I), 7‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐ethylsulfanyl‐4‐phenylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₁₉H₁₅ClN₄S, (II), and 4,7‐bis(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐(ethylsulfanyl)pyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₁₉H₁₄Cl₂N₄S, (III), show evidence for some aromatic delocalization in the pyrazole rings. The conformations adopted by the ethylsulfanyl substituents are different in all three compounds. There are no hydrogen bonds in any of the crystal structures, but pairs of molecules in (II) and (III) are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by π‐stacking interactions.     

Microwave‐Assisted Solvent‐Free Synthesis of Ipsapirone

The currently applied synthetic methods of serotonin receptor ligands belonging to the group of long‐chain arylpiperazines, including ipsapirone, require the use of toxic solvents and comprise numerous synthetic steps. Moreover, the reaction yield does not exceed 60% in the majority of cases. These factors lead to an increased energy consumption and negatively impact the environment. This paper describes a more environmentally friendly method of ipsapirone synthesis that we decided to use. Ipsapirone was obtained in two different methods. The first method involved N‐alkylation of bromobutyl saccharin with 1‐(2‐pyrimidyl)piperazine dihydrochloride, while the second was a one‐pot method. Neither of these requires the use of toxic and expensive solvents. A shortened synthesis time, not exceeding 10 min due to the use of microwave radiation, is also another advantage of these methods. The yield of the final product, ipsapirone, was 85% and 67% in the first and the second method, respectively. We also attempted to obtain ipsapirone using saccharin and arylpiperazine salt (method III) as starting materials, but to no avail in the tested conditions. As described herein, the green chemistry method for ipsapirone synthesis is rapid, cost‐effective, and environment friendly.     

Substituted Pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyrimidines: Microwave‐Assisted,Solvent‐Free Synthesis and Biological Evaluation

A simple and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of various pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyrimidines by using microwave irradiation under solvent‐free conditions. The advantages of applying microwave irradiation compared with the classical method were demonstrated. The structures of all the compounds were confirmed by the usual techniques and, in two cases, by X‐ray analysis. The compounds did not display appreciable ability to inhibit xanthine oxidase activity. Screening for antifungal activity showed that some derivatives were active against four fungi, with more significant results for Botrytis.     

Microwave-Assisted Sequential One-Pot Synthesis of 8-Substituted Pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines

This paper reports a convenient sequential one-pot approach for the synthesis of an array of 14 pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines, substituted in C8 by halogen (Br), various functions (CN and CO₂Et) and alkyl or (het)aryl groups. This study confirms the interest of combining the efficient heating obtained under dielectric microwave heating and the achievement of sequential one-pot reactions, avoiding the tedious work-up and purification of intermediate compounds, achieving sustainable synthesis processes. Considering usual conventional methods, this microwave protocol is featured by advantages in terms of yields, reaction times, and convenient gram scale synthesis.

The 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of an azomethine ylide generated by a decarboxylative route from sarcosine and isatin to 7‐arylmethylidene‐3‐aryl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazin‐6(7H)‐ones afforded novel dispiro[oxindole‐pyrrolidine]‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazines in moderate yields. The structures of the products were determined and characterized thoroughly by NMR, MS, IR, and elemental analysis. The results of experiment indicated that this 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition proceeded with high stereoselectivity and regioselectivity. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).

Synthesis,Structure, and Some Transformations of Novel 1,5‐methanonaphtho[1,2‐g][1,3,5]oxadiazocine Derivatives

Biginelli reaction of thiourea, 2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphthaldehyde, and acetoacetic ester (or benzoyl acetone) under solvent‐free conditions and MW irradiation gave novel 3‐thioxo‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐1,5‐methanonaphtho[1,2‐g][1,3,5]oxadiazocine derivatives. Subsequent reaction of the obtained compounds with α‐chloroacetamide led to 5‐methyl‐5H,13H‐5,13‐methanonaphtho[1,2‐g] thiazolo[2,3‐d][1,3,5]oxadiazocin‐1(2H)‐ones, which were converted to the Z‐isomers of 2‐arylylidene‐5H,13H‐5,13‐methanonaphtho[1,2‐g]thiazolo[2,3‐d][1,3,5]oxadiazocin‐1(2H)‐one derivatives by reaction with arylaldehydes. The structures of the products were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectra, and X‐ray analysis.

Cationic Pentaheteroaryls as Selective G‐Quadruplex Ligands by Solvent‐Free Microwave‐Assisted Synthesis

We report herein a solvent‐free and microwaved‐assisted synthesis of several water soluble acyclic pentaheteroaryls containing 1,2,4‐oxadiazole moieties ( 1 – 7 ). Their binding interactions with DNA quadruplex structures were thoroughly investigated by FRET melting, fluorescent intercalator displacement assay (G4‐FID) and CD spectroscopy. Among the G‐quadruplexes considered, attention was focused on telomeric repeats together with the proto‐oncogenic c‐kit sequences and the c‐myc oncogene promoter. Compound 1 , and to a lesser extent 2 and 5 , preferentially stabilise an antiparallel structure of the telomeric DNA motif, and exhibit an opposite binding behaviour to structurally related polyoxazole ( TOxaPy ), and do not bind duplex DNA. The efficiency and selectivity of the binding process was remarkably controlled by the structure of the solubilising moieties.     

Triazolylbenzimidazolthiones and derivatives of the new 1,2,3‐triazolo[ 1,5‐a][ 1,3,5]benzotriazepine heterocycle

Four new triazolylbenzimidazolthione derivatives (2a‐d), analogous to triazolylbenzimidazolone derivatives previously tested as activators of the BK_Ca potassium channels, were prepared and assayed without success. Some derivatives of a new tricyclic nitrogen heterocycle, 1,2,3‐triazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]benzo‐triazepine, bearing a carboxamido group in the 3 position, other substituents in the 8 position and a carbonyl (5a‐d) or thione (6a‐c) or methylthio (7a‐c) function in the 5 position were synthesised. The nucleophilic displacement of the methylthio substituent with morpholine or cyclopentylamine provided the 5‐amino‐substituted tricyclic derivatives 8a‐d. Starting from the l‐(2‐nitrophenyl)‐4‐cyano‐5‐amino‐1,2,3‐triazole (9), the 3‐cyano‐triazolobenzotriazepin‐5‐one derivative 12 was also obtained. The majority of the new compounds were tested towards the BK_Ca potassium channels, the benzodiazepine and adenosine A₁ and A_2a receptors, but no remarkable activity was detected.

A series of 3,4‐dihydropyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazin‐2‐amines was synthesized from 1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridin‐3‐ylguanidine using aldehydes or ketones as one‐carbon inserting reagents. The tautomeric preferences of the products were determined using spectroscopic (e.g., 2D NOESY NMR) and single crystal X‐ray diffraction data.

Preparation of the key intermediate thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepine‐4(5H)‐ones 4a‐i, 4k were carried out by treatment of 2‐bromo‐N‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐3‐thiophencarboxamides 5a‐i, 5k with potassium carbonate in DMSO. Compounds 1 are thienoanalogues of loxapine, a potent antipsychotic drug. Of these compounds, the neu‐roleptic activity of 2‐methyl‐4‐(4‐methylpiperazin‐l‐yl)thieno[2,3‐b][1,5]benzoxazepine 1a (R¹, R³=H, R²=CH₃) demonstrated potent antipsychotic activity.
