Several 3,3′-(1,6-hexanediyl)bis[6-methyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione] derivatives ( 4a, 4b , and 4c ) were synthesized from 1,6-(hexanediyl)bis[6-methyl-2H-1,3-oxazine-2,4(3H)-dione] (3) . Compound 4c was converted to 6, which reacted with thiourea giving thiuronium salt 7 . 3,3′-(1,6-Hexanediyl)bis [1-(2-mercaptoethyl)-6-methyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione] (9) was obtained by the hydrolysis of 7 , and then 9 was oxidized to 12,22-dimethyl-3,4-dithia[6.6] (1.3)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,4-dioxopyrimidinophane (10) .

An efficient synthesis of spiroacridinone derivatives from the facile reaction of isatins,dimedone, and 5-aminoindazole (6-aminoindazole or 5-aminoindole)

We have developed a simple and facil protocol for the synthesis of tetrahydrospiro(indoline-3,11′-pyrazolo[4,3-a]acridine)-2,10′(7′H)-dione, tetrahydrospiro(indoline-3, 11′-pyrazolo[3,4-a]acridine)-2,10′(7′H)-dione, and tetrahydrospiro (indoline-3,11′-pyrrolo[3,2-a]acridine)-2,10′(7′H)-dione via PTSA·H₂O-induced cyclization reaction from isatins, dimedone, and 5-aminoindazole (6-aminoindazole or 5-aminoindole) in mixed solvent (EtOH and CH₃CN). In this research, 5-aminoindazole, 6-aminoindazole, and 5-aminoindole were effectively used to react with isatins and dimedone to give spiroacridinone derivatives. The advantages of this method are mild conditions, convenient manipulation, high yields, and a wide range of substrates.     

Studies in spiroheterocycles. Part XVII. synthesis of novel fluorine containing spiro[indole-pyranobenzopyran] and spiro[indenopyran-indole] derivatives

Synthesis of Spiro[cyclohexane-1,2′-[2H]indene] derivatives as inhibitors of steroid 5α-reductase

The spiro[cyclohexane-1,2′-[2H]indene] derivatives 15a , b with molecular dimensions and nucleophilic functional groups similar to known steroid 5α-reductase inhibitors (e.g. 2 ) were synthesized. The spiro[cyclohexane-1,2′-[2H]indene]-1′(3′H),4-dione ( 5 ) was synthesized from 5-methoxyindan-l-one ( = 2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-1H-inden-1-one). A Grignard reaction and a dehydration step led to the cyclohexene (±)- 7 which, upon a stereoselective hydrogenation catalyzed by Raney-Ni under mild conditions, gave 8a as a pure epimer. Further hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis of 8a over Pd/C at room temperature reduced the keto group to give pure 9a . Finally, the 5′-substituted derivatives 12a , 14a , and 15a were generated by deprotection and Heck-type reaction.     

Isatins 3-C annulation vs ring-opening: Two different pathways for synthesis of spiro compounds via multicomponent reactions

An efficient synthesis of spiro compounds via two different pathways from the reactions of isatins, 3-phenylisoxazol-5(4H)-one (3-ethylisoxazol-5(4H)-one), and pyrazol-5-amine (6-aminopyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione) were reported. The catalyst Amberlyst-15 could be easy recycled and reused for many time without any appreciable loss in catalytic activity. The new type spiro compounds were gained through the ring-opening of isatins process.

With one exception, all of the products were inactive in an anticonvulsant screen.     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance study of a new ring-chain tautomerism of some pyridazine derivatives

The ¹³C NMR spectra of a number of pyridazine derivatives have been recorded in DMSO-d₆ solution and analysed. Examination of the most diagnostic resonances, with particular emphasis on those arising from the pyridazine ring system, enabled the ready establishment of the presence of a ring-chain tautomerism in 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylate, 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)-3,6,-dimethylpyridazine-4-carboxylic acid and 5-(2-amino-1,2-dicyanovinylenecarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid. This gave rise to 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 3′,4′-dihydro-3′oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylate, 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxo-3,6-dimethylspiro[pyridazine-5(2H), 2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid and 5-oxo-2,3-dicyano-1,4,8,9-tetraazaspiro[5.5]undeca-2,7,10-triene-11-carboxylic acid, respectively.

9,9′-Thiobis-(1,2,3,4,7,8-hexahydro-7-methyl-6H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine-6,8-dione)

The 6-(3-hydroxypropylamino)-3-methylpyrimidine-2,4-dione (1) did not afford the expected 6-(3-chloro-propylamino)- derivative on reaction with thionyl chloride, but, instead, the pyrimidine rings were joined via a sulfur bridge to give 9,9′-thiobis(1,2,3,4,7,8-hexahydro-7-melnyl-6H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrirnidine-6,8-dione) ( 3 ). An identical 9,9′-thiobis- derivative 3 was obtained when reacting thionyl chloride with 1,2,3,4,7,8-hexahydro-7-methyl-6H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine-6,8-dione ( 4 ). We suppose the sulfoxide- derivative 2 to be the intermediate of both routes: it underwent reduction to the final sulfide 3 in excess thionyl chloride.

Multiple-State Emissions from Neat,Single-Component Molecular Solids: Suppression of Kasha's Rule

Three rigid and structurally simple heterocyclic stilbene derivatives, (E)-3H,3′H-[1,1′-biisobenzofuranylidene]-3,3′-dione, (E)-3-(3-oxobenzo[c] thiophen-1(3H)-ylidene)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one, and (E)-3H,3′H-[1,1′-bibenzo[c] thiophenylidene]-3,3′-dione, are found to fluoresce in their neat solid phases, from upper (S₂) and lowest (S₁) singlet excited states, even at room temperature in air. Photophysical studies, single-crystal structures, and theoretical calculations indicate that large energy gaps between S₂ and S₁ states (T₂ and T₁ states) as well as an abundance of intra and intermolecular hydrogen bonds suppress internal conversions of the upper excited states in the solids and make possible the fluorescence from S₂ excited states (phosphorescence from T₂ excited states). These results, including unprecedented fluorescence quantum yields (2.3–9.6 %) from the S₂ states in the neat solids, establish a unique molecular skeleton for achieving multi-colored emissions from upper excited states by “suppressing” Kasha's rule.     

Studies in spiroheterocycles,Part XV. Investigation of the reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)-indol-2-ones with thiourea and urea derivatives

The reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)indol-2-one 1 with thiourea and urea derivatives has been investigated. Reaction of 1 with thiourea and urea in ethanolic potassium hydroxide media leads to the formation of spiro-2-indolinones 2a-f in 40–50% yield and a novel tetracyclic ring system 4,5-cycloalkyl-1,3-diazepino-[4,5-b]indole-2-thione/one 3a-f in 30–35% yield. 3-(2-Oxocyclopentylidene)indol-2-one afforded 5′,6′-cyclopenta-2′-thioxo/ oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′(3′H)pyrimidin]-2(1H)-ones 2a,b and 3-(2-oxocyclohexylidene)indol-2-one gave 2′,4′a,5′,6′,7′,8′- hexahydro-2′-thioxo/oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′ (3′H)-quinazolin]-2(1H)-ones 2c-f .

The products have been characterized by elemental analyses, ir pmr. ¹⁹F nmr and mass spectral studies.
