The main product of the reaction between 1-methyl-1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydronicotin-amide and ethyl bromoacetate is shown to be the 2-(1-methyl-1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyridyl-3)-2-oxazoline-4-one which on partial hydrogenation followed by reaction with alkali affords O-(1-methylnipecotinoyl)glycolic amide, presumably via the tautomeric cyclol.     

Synthesis of isocoumarin, 1-isoquinolone and 4(1H)-quinolone derivatives via seleno-intermediates

The reaction of 2-styrylbenzoic acids 2 with N-phenylselenosuccinimide (N-PSS) affords 3-phenyl-iso-coumarin derivatives 3 and 3,4-dihydro-3-phenyl-4-(phenylseleno)isocoumarins 4 via selenolactonization. The reaction of 2-styrylbenzamides 5 and 1-(2-aminophenyl)-3-phenyl-2-peropen-1-one derivatives 11 with N-PSS also resulted in the formation of 1-isoquinolone 6 and 4(1H)-quinolone derivatives 12 , respectively.     

Novel heterocycles. 9. Synthesis of the benzofuro[2,3-c][1,2]thiazine ring system

The treatment of 2-coumaranone with the Vilsmeier reagent affords three products: 2-chloro-3-benzofurancarboxaldehyde ( 3 ), 3-dimethylaminomethylene-2-(3H)benzofuranone ( 4 ), and 3-dimethylaminomethylene-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-6-benzofurancarboxaldehyde ( 5 ). Both 4 and 5 are isolated as a mixture of E and Z isomers. The reaction of 3 with the anion of N-methylmethanesulfonamide affords the title compound 1-methyl-1H-benzofuro[2,3-c][1,2]-thiazine 2,2-dioxide ( 6 ). Spectral data is also discussed.     

Stereoselective Synthesis of Polyfunctionalized Nitrothianes: Enhancement of Stereoselectivity by Microwaves

The Michael addition of nitromethane to (Z,Z)-2,2′-thiobis(1,3-diarylprop-2-en-1-ones) in the presence of NaOEt in dimethylformamide (DMF)/alcohol under thermal conditions affords a diastereomeric mixture of 2a,6e-diaroyl-3a,5e-diaryl-4e-nitrothianes and 2e,6e-diaroyl-3e,5e-diaryl-4e-nitrothianes with a dr of ～3:1/4:1 respectively. This reaction under microwave irradiation in DMF/alcohol afforded solely 2a,6e-diaroyl-3a,5e-diaryl-4e-nitrothianes, disclosing enhancement of stereoselectivity by microwaves.

Reactions of 2-chloro-2-(4-pyridyl)propane with nucleophiles. Substitution on tertiary carbon

The reaction of 2-chloro-2-(4-pyridyl)propane ( 2 ) with lithium 2-propanenitronate affords the C-alkylation product 2-nitro-3-(4-pyridyl)-2,3-dimethylbutane ( 3 ), the Michael-adduct 2-nitro-2-methyl-4-(4-pyridyl)pentane ( 4 ), 4-isopropenylpyridine ( 5 ) and 2-(4-pyridyl)-2-propanol ( 6 ). Of these four products, only the formation of 3 is suppressed when the reaction is performed in the presence of radical inhibitors. The reaction of compound 2 with sodium azide gives the tertiary substitution product 2-azido-2-(4-pyridyl)propane ( 8 ). The reaction is not influenced by radical inhibitors. This is also the case in the reaction of 2 with sodium benzenethiolate, which affords 2-mercaptophenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)propane ( 9 ) and 1-mercaptophenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)propane ( 10 ). Compound 5 , the product of an E₂-type elimination is also formed in the azide and thiolate reactions. A Michael type addition of sodium benzenethiolate to 5 explains the formation of 10 . Similarly, generation of 5 in reactions of 2 with sodium methanethiolate and sodium cyanide accounts for the formation of 1-mercaptomethyl-2-(4-pyridyl)propane ( 11 ) and 3-(4-pridyl)butanenitrile ( 12 ), respectively.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g . Oxidation of the dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-e afforded 6-(indolyl-3)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 4a-e , products of nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in 1a-c . Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .

The reaction of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-benzoyl-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-3-pyrrolin-2-one with aromatic amines affords the corresponding 3-arylamino derivatives, and the reactions of 5-aryl-4-acetyl-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-3-pyrrolin-2-ones with p-toluidine yield 5-aryl-4-(1-p-tolylamino)ethylene-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)pyrrolidin-2,3-diones.     

Utility of Ketonic Mannich Bases in Synthesis of Some New Functionalized 2‐Pyrazolines

The styryl ketonic Mannich base 2 has been used as a precursor in the synthesis of 2‐pyrazolines having a basic side chain at C‐3 and a phenolic Mannich base at C‐5. Treatment of the bis(styryl ketonic bases) 6a and 8a with phenylhydrazine affords the bis(3‐functionalized 2‐pyrazolines) 7 and 9 . The transamination between the styryl keto base 10 and 4‐aminoantipyrine leads to 12 , which reacts with piperazine to give 13 . N‐Nitrosation of the sec‐Mannich bases 15a – d followed by reductive cyclization affords 2‐pyrazolines 17a – d . The keto base 14b has been used for the synthesis of 2‐pyrazolines having a phenolic Mannich base at C‐3 and its reaction with 3,5‐dimethyl‐1H‐pyrazole affords 23 . The alkylation of 3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐2‐pyrazolin‐5‐one with the bis(Mannich base) 25 was investigated.     

Synthesis of indoles via amidoselenation

The reaction of 2-styrylacetanilides (2) with N-phenylselenosuccinimide affords 1-N-acetyl-2-phenyl-3-phenylselenoindoles (3) and 1-N-acetyl-2-phenylindoles (4) . The reaction of 2-vinylacetanilides (5) with phenylselenenyl bromide proceeds to form indoles via an intramolecular amidoselenation.

O-Methyl o-quinone monoxime 1 reacts thermally with compounds 2a-d or 6a,b or 7a,b to give mainly the corresponding 2-substituted phenanthroxazoles 3a-c and 8 . The reaction of 1 with aromatic methylene compounds lOa-c affords the ketones 13a-c in moderate to high yields. Similar products are also obtained from the reaction of monoximes 15a,b with some of the above reactants. The unexpected products 5 and 20 are obtained from the reaction of 1 with 2-methylimidazole ( 2d ) and with phenyloxirane ( 19 ) respectively, while the 4H-1,4-oxazine derivative 23 is obtained from the reaction of 1 with indene ( 21 ).

Synthesis of 3‐Acetyl‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐one Derivatives

The cyclization of aryl ketone anilides 3 with diethyl malonate to affords 4‐hydroxy‐6‐phenyl‐6H‐pyrano[3,2‐c]‐pyridin‐2,5‐diones 4 in good yields. 3‐Acetyl‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐ones 5 are obtained by ring‐opening reaction of 4‐hydroxy‐6‐phenyl‐6H‐pyrano[3,2‐c]‐pyridin‐2,5‐diones 4 in the presence of 1,2‐diethylene glycol. The reaction of 3‐acetyl‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐ones 5 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride produces 4‐hydroxy‐3‐[N‐hydroxyethanimidoyl]‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐ones 6 from which 3‐alkyloxyiminoacetyl‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐ones 7 are obtained by reacting with alkyl bromides or iodides in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate with moderate yields. The similar compounds can be synthesized on refluxing 3‐acetyl‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐phenylpyridin‐2(1H)‐ones 5 with substituted hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of sodium bicarbonate with good yields. Most of the synthesized compounds are characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopic methods.     

Reactions of 4,6-bis(acetyl)resorcinol with alkoxycarbonylalkylidene(triphenyl)phosphoranes. Preparation of coumarin derivatives

Synthesis of acenaphtho[1,2-x]heterocycles and spiro[acenaphthylene 1-isoxazoles]

Methyl (Z)-(1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-1-acenaphthylenylidene)acetate 1 gives with hydroxylamine the oximes 2 and the pyrrole derivative 4 , whereas with hydrazines affords the pyridazinones 5 and 6 . A pyridazine derivative 8 is also isolated from the reaction of (1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-1-acenaphthylenylidene)acetone 7 with hydrazine hydrate. Reaction between the spiro-derivative 9 and hydroxylamine hydrochloride gives oxime 10 , whereas Wittig olefination of 9 with ylide 11 yields compound 12 which by reaction with 2,4,6-trimethylbenzonitrile oxide ( 13 ) affords the dispiro-derivatives 14 . Finally from the reaction of acenaphthylene-1,2-quinone ( 17 ) with the bisylide 16 the acenaphtho[1,2-c]thiophene ( 18 ) is formed.     

Fused s-triazino heterocycles. XVI. 13H-1,3,7,8,12a, 13c-hexaazabenzo[de]naphthacene and 1,3,7,8,11b, 12,14,14d-octaazadibenzo[de,hi]naphthacene,two new ring systems

The reaction of 7,9-dibromo-5-tribromomethyl-2-t-butyl-4-cyano-1,3,6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 1a ) with 2-amino-5-picoline is shown to give 4,6-dibromo-2-t-butyl-13-imino-11-methyl-13H-1,3,7,8,12a,13c-hexaazabenzo[de]naphthacene ( 3 ) and the isomeric 7,9-dibromo-2-t-butyl-4-cyano-5N-(5-methyl-2-pyridyl)amino-1,3,-6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 2a ). A related annulation reaction of 7,9-dibromo-2-t-butyl-5-chloro-4-cyano-1,3,6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 1g ) with 2-amino-6-trimethylacetamidopyridine leads in two steps to 4,6-dibromo-2,13-di-t-butyl-1,3,7,8,11b,12,14,14d-octaazadibenzo[de,hi]naphthacene ( 4a ). The preparation of 1g , 5-azido-7,9-dibromo-2-t-butyl-4-cyano-1,3,6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 1c ) and the reaction of the latter with pyrrolidine leading to 7,9-dibromo-2-t-butyl-4-cyano-5-(1-pyrrolidino)-1,3,6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 1e ) are also reported. Attempted displacement of the azido-group on 1c by 2,6-diaminopyridine affords surprisingly 5-amino-7,9-dibromo-2-t-butyl-4-cyano-1,3,6,9b-tetraazaphenalene ( 1d ).     

Selective tin-carbon bond cleavage reactions of trimethylstannylzirconocene dichloride with electrophiles

The reaction of 5,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)cyclopentadiene with CpZrCl3 (Cp = eta 5-C5H5) affords the monostannylated metallocene complex (eta 5-Me3SnC5H4)CpZrCl2 (1), accompanied by variable amounts of (eta 5-ClMe2SnC5H4)CpZrCl2 (2). The complex (1) reacts with BCl3 or with ICl to afford 2 (Sn-CH3 cleavage), but with HCl, Cp2ZrCl2 is obtained instead (Sn-Cp cleavage). Depending on the reaction conditions, treatment of either 1 or 2 with BBr3 affords (eta 5-BrMe2SnC5H4)CpZrBr2 (3) or (eta 5-Br2MeSnC5H4)CpZrBr2 (4). The reaction of 1 with excess I2 affords the iodostannylated complex (eta 5-IMe2SnC5H4)CpZrCl2 (5). Two of the complexes (2.2C6H5CH3 and 4.THF) are crystallographically characterized. The adduct 4.THF has a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry about tin with a long O-Sn distance of 2.655 A. We find overall that Me3Sn substituents undergo electrophilic halodemethylation much more readily than corresponding Me3Si substituents, whereas the reactivities of the halostannylated complexes toward nucleophiles such as airborne moisture are much lower than those of their halosilylated counterparts.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of some 4-(isoxazolinyl or 1,2,4-oxadiazolyl) coumarins

Reaction of compound 3 with nitrile oxide 4a affords compounds 5a and 6 in 73% and 3% yield respectively, while reaction of 3 with 4b affords only compound 5b (85%). Reactions of compound 8 with the nitrile oxides 4a,b result in compounds 9a,b . The compound 10 , prepared from 1 and O-methylhydroxylamine, reacts with nitrile oxide 4b to give the oxadiazole derivative 12 . The above referred coumarins are screened for antiinflammatory activity in vivo using the carrageenin rat paw edema and in vitro through their antiproteolytic activity and their ability to inhibit β-glucuronidase and 12-Lipoxygenase.     

Regioselective arylation of 3-bromopyridine

The addition of aryl Grignard reagents to the 1-phenoxycarbonyl salt of 3-bromopyridine affords 2-aryl-5-bromo-1-phenoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydropyridines and 4-aryl-3-bromo-1-phenoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridines. The crude dihydropyridines were aromatized with o-chloranil in refluxing toluene to give 4- and 6-aryl-3-bromopyridines. The regioselectivity of this two-step process, 6- vs. 4-substitution, was examined and found to be dependent upon the structure of the Grignard reagent. Unhindered aryl Grignard reagents, e.g., phenyl and 2-naphthyl, gave mainly 6-aryl-3-bromopyridines (49-52%) along with 9% of the 4-substituted isomer and less than 4% of the 2-aryl-3-bromopyridine. Hindered aryl Grignard reagents, e.g., o-tolyl and 1-naphthyl, are less regioselective. When a catalytic amount of cuprous iodide is present during the Grignard reaction, nearly exclusive 1,4-addition results. The crude 4-aryl-3-bromo-1,4-dihydropyridines were aromatized with p-chloranil to provide 4-aryl-3-bromopyridines in good yield and high isomeric purity. The sequential use of the cuprous iodide-catalyzed Grignard reaction and the “normal” Grignard reaction provided a regiospeci-fic synthesis of 3-bromo-6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-phenylpyridine from 3-bromopyridine.     

Synthesis and biological effects of new derivatives of azines incorporating coumarin

New synthetic routes for triazolopyridine, pyridopyrimidine, pyridotriazine, imidazopyridine and pyri‐dazine derivatives incorporating a coumarin moiety with interesting biological activities are reported. Reactions of the 2‐oxo‐4‐(2‐dimethylaminoethenyl)‐2H‐chromene‐3‐carbonitrile ( 4 ) and 2‐amino‐4‐(2‐dimethylaminoethenyl)quinoline‐3‐carbonitrile ( 5 ) with benzotriazol‐1‐yl‐acetic acid hydrazide ( 6 ) affords the substituted [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrido[3,4‐c]coumarines 9 and quinoline 12 , respectively. Treatment of 4 with 2‐amino‐pyridine, glycine, urea, 3‐aminocrotononitrile or cyanothioacetamide affords 14–18 , respectively. Treatment of 3‐amino‐3,4‐dihydro‐4‐imino‐chromeno[3,4‐c]pyridin‐5‐one (10) with α‐chloro‐acetylacetone affords pyridotriazine derivative 21 . Compound 4 was also coupled with benzenediazonium chloride to afford 2‐oxo‐4‐[2‐oxo‐1‐(phenyl‐hydrazono)‐ethyl]‐2H‐chromene‐3‐carbonitrile 25 . Treatment of the latter product with malononitrile afforded the 1‐phenyl‐3‐(3′‐Cyano‐2′‐oxo‐coumarin‐4′‐yl)‐6‐oxo‐pyridazine‐5‐carbonitrile ( 27 ). The structures of the newly synthesized compounds have been established on the basis of analytical and spectral data.     

Synthesis of the phosphino-fullerene PPh2(o-C6H4)(CH2NMeCH)C60 and its function as an η1-P or η3-P,C2 ligand

Following the method of Prato et al., reaction of C(60), N-methylglycine and o-(diphenylphosphino)benzaldehyde affords PPh(2)(o-C(6)H(4))(CH(2)NMeCH)C(60) (1) in moderate yield. Compound 1 reacts with W(CO)(4)(NCMe)(2) to produce W(CO)(4)(η(3)-PPh(2)(o-C(6)H(4))(CH(2)NMeCH)C(60)) (2), through coordination of the phosphine group and one 6 : 6-ring junction of fullerene. Reaction of 1 and Os(3)(CO)(11)(NCMe) affords Os(3)(CO)(11)(PPh(2)(o-C(6)H(4))(CH(2)NMeCH)C(60)) (3), which undergoes a cluster fragmentation reaction in refluxing toluene to produce Os(CO)(3)(η(3)-PPh(2)(o-C(6)H(4))(CH(2)NMeCH)C(60)) (4). Thermal reaction of 1 and Os(3)(CO)(12) affords 3 and 4. On the other hand, reaction of 1 and Ru(3)(CO)(12) yields only the mononuclear complex Ru(CO)(3)(η(3)-PPh(2)(o-C(6)H(4))(CH(2)NMeCH)C(60)) (5). The structures of 1-3 and 5 were determined by an X-ray diffraction study.
