Synthesis of 2-Aryl-4-(R-sulfanylmethyl)-3-methyl-6,7-dihydro-2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]pyridazin-7-ones

Bromination of ethyl 1-aryl-4-acetyl-5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates gave ethyl 1-aryl-4-(bromoacetyl)-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-carboxylates which were used to alkylate benzenethiol and heterocyclic thiones at the sulfur atom. Reactions of the resulting S-alkylation products with hydrazine or methylhydrazine involved closure of pyridazine ring to afford 2-aryl-3-methyl-4-[phenyl(or hetaryl)sulfanylmethyl]-6,7-dihydro-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7-ones.

Synthesis of 1-(R-Phenyl)-5-(R-Methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic Acids by One-Pot Tandem Reaction

Substituted 1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acids were synthesized by a three-component reaction of arylazides, ethyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutanoate, and either O- or S-nucleophiles in the presence of a base catalyst. The reaction most probably proceeded as a [3 + 2] cyclocondensation reaction between arylazide and ethyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutanoate with the further nucleophilic substitution of chlorine in the chloromethyl group. Reaction optimization was performed to carry out the reaction with an O-nucleophile. Conditions were found under which diethyl 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalate (the product of self-condensation of two molecules of ethyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutanoate with the further oxidation by azide) was obtained.     

Synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles underlain by application of 3-(4-Acetyl[phenyl)-2H-coumarin

3-(4-Acetylphenyl)-2H-chromen-2-one was obtained from 4-acetylphenyldiazonium chloride in the conditions of Meerwein reaction. Reactions of 3-[4-(2-bromoacetyl)phenyl]-2H-chromen-2-one with pyridine, 4-methylpyridine, quinoline, benzo[f]quinoline, and triphenylphosphine afforded quaternary salts, and with thioacetamide, thiourea, 2-aminopyridine, 2-aminopyrimidine, and 6-aminopurine provided the corresponding derivatives of thiazole, imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, imidazo[2,1-i]purine. In the reaction of the same bromo derivative with thiosemicarbazide and aromatic aldehydes a thiazole ring is built and the corresponding hydrazones are formed.     

Arenediazonium Tetrachlorocuprates(II). Modified Versions of the Meerwein and Sandmeyer Reactions

Chloroarylation of unsaturated compounds with arenediazonium chlorides in the presence of CuCl₂ as catalyst involves intermediate formation of arenediazonium tetrachlorocuprates(II) [ArN₂ ⁺]₂ CuCl₄ ^2-. A procedure for preparative isolation of these intermediates was developed, and they were shown to be efficient arylating agents. Reactions of [ArN₂ ⁺]₂ CuCl₄ ^2- with unsaturated compounds gave the corresponding Meerwein products; a mechanism was proposed for these reactions. In polar solvents arenediazonium tetra- chlorocuprates(II) are converted into chloroarenes, presumably through a cyclic transition state.     

Synthesis of heterocycles on the basis of products of arylation of unsaturated compounds 22.* 3-Aryl-2-chloropropanal in the synthesis of N-Aryl-5-(R-benzyl)-1,3-thiazole-2-amines

3-Aryl-2-chloropropanal was obtained by the reaction of arenediazonium chlorides with acrolein in the presence of copper(II) chloride. N-Aryl(2-pyridyl)-5-(R-benzyl)-1,3-thiazole-2-amines were formed in high yield by the reaction of these aldehydes with aryl- and 2-pyridylthioureas. The same compounds were obtained by the reaction of 5-(R-benzyl)-1,3-thiazole-2-amines with aniline.     

Synthesis of substituted 4-([1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]-[1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-yl)quinolines

4-Amino-5-R¹-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols react with 2-R²-6-R³-quinoline-4-carboxylic acids in phosphoryl chloride to give 2-R²-6-R³-4-(3-R¹-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-yl)quinolines.     

Understanding the tetrazole ring cleavage reaction with hydrazines: Structural determination and mechanistic insight

A distinction in the behaviour of several hydrazines as N-nucleophiles in the recently developed one-pot method for pyrimidine core annulation via 1H-tetrazole ring cleavage was examined. The product structures, 2,3-diamino- or hydrazino derivatives of thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones, thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones and [1]benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one, were elucidated based on NMR and single crystal X-ray analysis.
