Dipolare (1:1)-Addukte aus der Reaktion von 3-Amino-2H-azirinen mit 1,3,4-Oxadiazol- und 1,3,4-Thiadiazol-2(3H)-onen

Dipolar 1:1 Adducts from the Reaction of 3-Amino-2H-azirines with 1,3,4-Oxadiazol- and 1,3,4-Thiadiazol-2(3H)-ones 3-Amino-2H-azirines 1 react with 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one ( 2 ) as well as with different 5-substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-ones ( 5a–e ) in 2-propanol at room temperature to give dipolar 1:1 adducts of type 3 and 6 , respectively, in reasonable-to-good yields (Schemes 3 and 6, Tab. 1 and 2). The structure of two of these dipolar adducts, 6a and 6e , which are formally donor-acceptor-stabilized azomethin imines, have been elucidated by X-ray crystallography (Figs. 1-4). In the reaction of 2 and sterically crowded 3-amino-2H-azirines 1c–e with a 2-propyl and 2-propenyl substituent, respectively, at C(2), a 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one of type 4 is formed as minor product (Scheme 3 and Table 1). Independent syntheses of these products proved the structure of 4 . Several reaction mechanisms for the formation of compounds 3 and 4 are discussed, the most likely ones are described in Scheme 4: reaction of 2 as an NH-acidic compound leads, via a bicyclic zwitterion of type A , to 3 as well as to 4 . In the latter reaction, a ring-expanded intermediate B is most probable.
