Abstract: | 6-Methyl substituted 2-aryl- and 2-benzylthiopyridinium N-imides reacted with an excess of isocyanates to give N,N-disubstituted exocyclic1H-imidazo4,5-b]pyridin-2(3H)-ones. The products easily underwent spontaneous 1,5] hydrogen shift to provide the heteroaromatic imidazopyridinone isomers. The transformation implied the initial formation of 1,2,4]triazolo2,3-a]pyridinium salt, followed by deprotonation and carbamoylation of the methylene moiety, and, finally, a rearrangement following a 1,3] sigmatropic pattern. Mechanistic considerations suggest and some experimental findings reveal the nonconcerted two-step mechanism of the ring transformation step. |
