Orthoamides. LI. Push-Pull-Butadienes and Heterocycles from Alkyne Carboxylic Acid Orthoamides and CH₂-acidic Compounds The acetylides 4b, 4f react with N,N,N′,N′,N″,N″-hexamethylguanidiniumchloride ( 5 ) to give the orthoamides 6b, 6f , resp. From CH₂-acidic compounds and the orthoamides 6a, c, e can be obtained the push-pull-substituted butadienes 8a–8aj . The 2,3,5-trimethyl-thiadiazolium salt 9 does not condense with 6e , as other CH₂-acidic compounds do, instead the vinylogous guanidinium salt 10a is produced. On heating, the ketenaminals 8d, aa cyclize to give the pyridone-carbonitriles 11a, b , resp. From 4-amino-coumarins 12 and the orthocarboxylic acid amideacetals 13a, b and the ketenaminal 16 resp., the amidines 14a–c and the heterocyclic compounds 15a–c resp., are formed. The enamines 17a–c, 19a, b react with the orthoamides 6a–f to give the pyridine derivatives 18a–1, 20a–h and 21a, b , resp. Analogously, from 6-aminouracil 22 and 6a, b, e, f are formed the pure 7-dimethylaminopyrido[2,3-d] pyrimidines 23a, b or mixtures of compounds 23c, d and the isomeric 4-dimethylamino-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 24a, b resp., which can be separated via their salts 25a,b/26a,b . The heterocyclic compounds 30a–d, 32a,b can be prepared from the pyrazole derivatives 28, 31 resp. and the orthoamides 6a–f .     

Synthesis of pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2,3-c]pyrazoles and pyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2,3-d]pyrimidines and their application to polyester fibres

4-Nitroso-1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole ( 1 ) was condensed with ethylcyanoacetate ( 2 ), malononitrile ( 4a ) and 2-cyanomethylbenzimidazole ( 4b ) to yield 6-hydroxy-5-cyano, 6-amino-5-cyano and 6-amino-5-(benzimidazol-2-yl)-3-methylpyrazolo [3,4-b]pyrazines 3, 5a and 5b , respectively. 5-Cyano-6-chloro derivative 6 obtained from 3 was converted to 3-aminopyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2,3-c]pyrazoles 8a and 8b by the treatment with hydrazin hydrate ( 7a ) and phenylhydrazine ( 7b ), respectively. Compound 5a was treated with formamide ( 9a ), urea ( 9b ) and thiourea ( 9c ) to give 4-aminopyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2′3′-d]pyrimidines 10a–10c. With refluxing acetic anhydride compounds 8a, 8b and 10a gave corresponding acetamido derivatives 8c, 8d and 10d. Compound 5a was treated with ethylorthoformate ( 11 ), acetic anhydride ( 12 ) or benzoylchloride ( 13 ) to give fused benzimidazopyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2′,3′-d]pyrimidines, viz., benzimidazol[1,2-c]pyrazolo[4,3-g]pteridines ( 14a–14c ). Some of the compounds 8, 10 and 14 were applied to polyester as disperse dyes and their fastness properties were studied.     

Amino-thieno[2,3–c]pyrazole und Amino-thieno[2,3–b]pyrrole

Amino-thieno[2,3–c]pyrazoles and Amino-thieno[2,3–b]pyrroles The synthesis of thieno[2,3–c]pyrazoles and thieno[2,3–b]pyrroles is described. From the dithioliumsalt ( 1 ) and potassium hydroxide the potassium-(2,2-dicyan-1-methylthio-ethen-1-yl)-thiolate ( 2 ) is formed. This reacts with hydrazine hydrate to form the 3-amino-5-thioxo-pyrazol-4-carbonitrile ( 3 ) S-Alkylation with α-chlorocarbonyl compounds yielding ( 6a–c ) leads via Thorpe-Ziegler-cyclization to 3,4-diamino-thieno[2,3–c]pyrazoles ( 9 ) if the position 1 is alkylated ( 8 ). Acetyl acetone yields 2-mercapto-pyrazolo[1,5–a]pyrimidine ( 5 ). After S-alkylation ( 10a–d ) are immediately cyclized to thieno [2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ( 11a–d ). The ketone ( 6a ) can be cyclized to the pyrazolo [5,1–b]thiazole ( 12 ). 3 reacts with oxalyl chloride to form the 2,3-dioxo-6-thioxo-imidazo[1,2-b]pyrazole ( 13 ) of which S-phenacyl derivative ( 14 ) because the NH-proton cannot be cyclized. The 5-amino-3,4-dicyano-pyrrol-2-thiolate ( 16 ) shows the analogous behaviour. The S-alkylation is followed by cyclization, and 3,5-diamino-thieno[2,3–b]pyrroles ( 18a–b ) arise. Reaction of 5-amino-2-alkylthio-pyrrol-3,5-dicarbonitrile ( 17 ) with acetyl acetone provides pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidine ( 20a–c ) which can be cyclized to form thieno[3′,2′:4,6]pyrimidines ( 21a–c ) very easily.     

Cycloaddition Reactions of 1,3‐Diaza‐2‐azoniaallene Salts and Glycals

The 1,3‐diaza‐2‐azoniaallene salt 3a reacts stereoselectively with glycals ( 5a—e ) to afford pyrano[2,3‐d]‐1,2,3‐ triazolium salts 6a—e . In contrast to other 1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions of glycals reported so far, the stereoselectivity of compounds 6 is not determined by the substituent on C‐3 of the glycal. Both cis ( 6a,b ) and trans ( 6d,e ) substitutions on C‐7 and C‐7a were found for bicyclic compounds 6 (crystal structure of 6a ). Under the influence of acid 6e opens the pyran ring to give the triazolium salt 9 . Addition of antimony pentachloride to a solution of the glycal 5e and the chlorotriazene 2a results in the formation of the pyranotriazene 12 containing two triazene units. In the presence of acid the pyranotriazene 6c reacts with alcohols to afford 2‐hydrazino glycosides 13a,b, 15 , which with zinc dust in acetic acid are reduced to 2‐amino glycosides 14a,b .     

On the Reaction of Acylium Salts with Isocyanates

Alkyl isocyanates ( 3 ) react with acylium salts ( 2 ) in a 2:1 ratio to furnish 3,4-dihydro-2,4-dioxo-2H-1,3,5-oxadiazinium salts 4. These cyclic N-acyliminium salts are decomposed with catalytic amounts of water to give either oxadiazinium salts 5 or pyrimidinium salts 7. With aqueous base compounds 4 are transformed into acylureas 6. Hetero substituted open chain N-acyliminium salts ( 8a , 11c , 12c , 13f , 15g , 16a ) are produced from 4 by treatment with heteronucleophiles such as methanol, p-anisidine, p-cresol, thiophenol, 1,3-dimethylurea, or benzohydrazide, respectively. Excess of nucleophile furnishes further degradation products of 4 , e.g. oxonium salts ( 9a ) and iminium salts ( 14f ).     

The use of N-bridgehead heterocyclic indolizinium ylide in the synthesis of aza-cyanine dyes

The reaction of 3-methyl-8-oxime-1-phenylpyrazolo [4,5-d]indolizinium (bezoindolizinium) ylide iodide with 2(4)-methyl substituted heterocyclic quaternary salts give 8[2(4)]-aza-monomethine cyanine dyes. Meanwhile, the reaction with carbonyl compounds followed by reaction with 2-methyl quinolinium methiodide salts afforded 5(2)-aza-trimethine cyanine dyes. On the other hand, the reaction of 5-formyl-2-methyl-4-phenylpyrazolo[4,5-d]indolizinium (benzoindolizinium) ylide iodide with hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by reaction with N-methyl heterocyclic quaternary salts afforded the corresponding 5[4(1)]-aza-dimethine cyanine dyes. These new compounds are characterized with elemental analyses, visible absorption, IR, ¹³C NMR, ¹H NMR and mass spectroscopy. The correlations between the structure and spectral properties of these dyes have been studied.     

Concave reagents. 31. A Merrifield bound concave pyridine for the selective acylation of polyols

The concave pyridine 2a has been synthesized in 61% yield in two macrocyclization steps. After deprotection to give 2b , the concave pyridine has been attached to a Merrifield resin, and the resulting polymer 10 containing 0.3 mmol 2 /g has been used as a selective acylation catalyst for the addition of propane‐1,2‐diol ( 11 ) and the glucose derivative 14a to diphenylketene ( 12 ) to form selectively 2‐hydroxypropyl diphenylacetate ( 13a ) (selectivity 13a / 13b : 11:1) and methyl 4,6‐0‐benzylidene‐2‐diphenylacetyl‐α‐D‐gluco‐pyranoside ( 14b ), (selectivity 14b / 13c : 29:1), respectively. After successful applications in batch reactions, the selective addition of 11 to 12 has also been carried out in a flow reactor filled with the polymeric catalyst 10 .     

Cyclophanes,XXIII [1] [2.2] Indenophanes — Building Blocks for Novel Multilayered Organoiron Complexes

A general approach for the synthesis of [2.2] indenophanes is described employing readily available mono-(8, 13) and bis-formyl[2.2]paracyclophanes (20, 21) as substrates. The anellated five-membered ring is introduced by a multistep sequence involving Wittig-Horner chain elongation of the different aldehydes, saponification, catalytic hydrogenation, acid-catalyzed ring closure, and dehydration. In this manner the novel indenophanes 11, 16, 17, 26, and 27 have been synthesized in good yields. The first representatives of a novel class of extended metallophanes, the multilayered ferrocenophanes 32 and 34, have been prepared from 11 and 28, respectively, via their sodium salts 29 and 33. The effect of an anellated [2.2] paracyclophane unit on the proton chemical shifts of the model compounds 30, 31, and 35 is discussed.     

Comprehensive and Facile Synthesis of Some Functionalized Bis-Heterocyclic Compounds Containing a Thieno[2,3-b]thiophene Motif

A comprehensive and facile method for the synthesis of new functionalized bis-heterocyclic compounds containing a thieno[2,3-b]thiophene motif is described. The hitherto unknown bis-pyrazolothieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives 2a-c, bis-pyridazin othieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives 4, bis-pyridinothieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives 6a,b, and to an analogous bis-pyridinothieno[2,3-b]thiophene nitrile derivatives 7 are obtained. Additionally, the novel bis-pyradazinonothieno[2,3-b]thiophene derivatives 9, and nicotinic acid derivatives 10, 11 are obtained via bis-dienamide 8. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds have been elucidated by (1)H, (13)C NMR, GCMS, and IR spectrometry. These compounds represent a new class of sulfur and Nitrogen containing heterocycles that should also be of interest as new materials.     

Ene Reactions and [2+2]Cycloadditions of Nitrilium Salts with Alkenes

N-Alkylnitrilium salts ( 1 ) undergo ene reactions with electron-rich di- and higher substituted alkenes 2 to afford either 2-azoniaallene salts ( 3, 6, 9, 11 ) (the nitrilium salt reacting as ene and the alkene reacting as enophile) or 1-azonia-1,4-pentadiene salts ( 10, 12 ) (the alkene reacting as ene and the nitrilium salt reacting as enophile). Competing with ene reactions tri- and tetrasubstituted alkenes and N-alkylnitrilium salts undergo [2+2]cycloaddition to furnish azetinium salts ( 8, 13 ). In solution, alkyl substituted 2-azoniaallene salts tautomerize to 2-azonia-1,3-butadiene salts ( 4, 5, 7 ). The constitutions of the 2-azoniaallene salt 6c and the azetinium salt 8 were secured by X-ray crystallographic analyses.     

Pericyclic Domino reactions with 3,6-Bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine: A convenient entry into azo cage compounds

3,6-Bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine ( 1 ) characterized by a highly reactive, electron deficient diazdiene system reacted with several cyclic and acyclic bis-dienophiles to yield the cage compounds 11 , 19a, b , 31a, b and 41 in a pericyclic homo-domino reaction in good yields. The first step of the domino reactions is an inverse electron demand inter-molecular Diels–Alder addition followed by elimination of nitrogen to give 4,5-dihydropyridazines which then undergo a terminal ring closure to yield the cage compounds. The solvent employed and the reaction temperature is of crucial importance. Whereas in nitromethane and at elevated temperatures the main products are the cage compounds, at lower temperature and in dichloromethane as solvent the initially formed 4,5-dihydropyridazines are frequently converted to 1,4-dihydropyridazines by a 1,3-H-shift. Treatment of the tetrazine 1 with cyclooctatriene 23 did not lead to a cage compound in any case; instead via valence tautomeric species octa-1,3,5,7-tetraene 23a and bicyclo[4.2.0]octa-2,4-diene 23b the twofold pyridazine-substituted butadienes 24 and 26 together with the tricyclic cyclobuta[f]phthalazine 25 were formed.     

Improved conversion of 6‐endo‐tosyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐ones into 6‐exo‐acetoxy and 6‐exo‐benzoyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐ones

The reaction conditions for the conversion of 6‐endo‐tosyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐one ( 7b ) into 6‐exo‐acetoxy ( 8b ) and 6‐exo‐benzoyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐one ( 8a ), respectively, were improved. Thus known 6‐endo‐tosyloxy‐bicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐ones (+)‐(1RS,6SR,8SR,11RS)‐11‐[(4‐toluenesulfonyl)oxy]tricyclo[6.2.2.0^1,6]dodecan‐9‐one ( 1a ), 13‐methyl‐15‐oxo‐9β,13b‐ethano‐9β‐podocarpan‐12β‐yl‐4‐toluenesulfonate ( 3a ), and methyl (13R)‐16‐oxo‐13‐[(4‐tolylsulfonyl)oxy]‐17‐noratisan‐18‐oate ( 5 ), were converted,in comparable yields, as previously recorded, but much shorter times, into (+)‐(1RS,6SR,8SR,11SR)‐11‐(benzoyloxy) tricyclo[6.2.2.0^1,6]dodecan‐9‐one ( 2 ), 13‐methyl‐15‐oxo‐9β,13β‐ethano‐9β‐podocarpan‐12α‐yl benzoate ( 4 ), and methyl (13S)‐13‐(benzoyloxy)‐16‐oxo‐17‐noratisan‐18‐oate ( 6 ), respectively.     

Ring closure reaction of 5-hydroxy-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4,7-triones to benzo[b]pyrimido[4,5-h]1,6-naphthyridine-1,3,6-triones

N-Substituted aminouracils ( 1 ) react with malonates by cyclocondensation to 5-hydroxy-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4,7-triones ( 2 ), which give with triethylorthoformate and aniline 6-(phenylaminomethylene)-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-tetraone ( 3 ). Halogenation of 2a - d (with R² = Me) with phosphorylchloride leads to 5,7-dichloro-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones ( 4 ) by cleavage of the methyl group at N-8, whereas Vilsmeier reaction of 2 affords 5-chloro-6-formyl derivatives ( 6 ), which cyclize with arylamines to give benzo[b]pyrimido[4,5-h] 1,6-naphthyridines ( 9 ). Compounds 9 were obtained independently by amination of the tosylates 5 to the 5-arylamino compounds 8 , and Vilsmeier formylation to yield 9 .     

The synthesis of fused and pendant pyrazole heterocyclic compounds from 5-amino-3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole and their evaluation as fluorescent brightening agents

5-Amino-3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole ( 1 ) has been condensed with EMME ( 2 a) and EMCA ( 2 b) and the resulting ethyl 5-aminoacrylates ( 3 a–b) cyclized to pyrazolo[3,4,-b]pyridines ( 4 a–b). 3-Methyl-1-phenylpyrazol-5-yl diazonium salt ( 7 ), prepared from ( 1 ) was coupled with tobias acid ( 8 ) and 2-methoxy-6-aminoquinoxaline ( 9 ) to get the corresponding O-aminoarylazo and heterylazo dyes ( 10 ) which were oxidatively cyclized to 2-N-(3-methyl-1-N-phenylpyrazol-5-yl)-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-a] naphthalene and [4,5-f] quinoxaline derivative ( 11 ). The spectral properties of the compounds ( 4 a–b, 5 , 6 , 11 a–b) were studied.

Novel Spiroindolines via Ring Transformation of 2,4,6-Triarylpyrylium Salts with 2-Methyleneindolines 2,4,6-Triarylpyrylium salts 1 react with 2-methyleneindolines 2 or their salts 2 HX in the presence of triethylamine/acetic acid in ethanol by a 2,5-[C₄ + C₂] pyrylium ring transformation to give diastereomerically pure 6-aroyl-3,5-diaryl-spiro[cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1,2′-indolines] 3 , which represent a novel type of spiroindoline compounds. When the 1′-phenyl substituted spiroindolines 3 (RPh, R′H) are treated with p-toluenesulfonic acid in chloroform the 4,6-diaryl-2-[1-methyl-1-(2-phenylaminophenyl)methyl]benzophenones 4 are obtained as the result of an intramolecular amine elimination. Structural elucidation of the reaction products 3/4 is based on spectroscopic data and on an X-ray determination of the bis(4-bromophenyl) substituted spiroindoline 3i.     

Some reactions of 1,3-Dichloro-2-azoniaallene Salts with heteronucleophiles

1,3-Dichloro-2-azoniaallene hexachloroantimonates ( 1 ) reacted with H₂S to give 1,2,4-dithiazolium salts 2 . With hydrazines 1,2,4-triazolium salts ( 3, 4 ) were formed. 1,3-Dimethylurea, respectively 1,3-dimethylthiourea or ethyl allophanate, reacted with 1 to afford 2-oxo- or 2-thioxo-1,3,5-triazinium salts ( 5–7 ). With diphenylmethaneimines imino substituted 2-azoniaallene salts 8 were produced. From chloroacetonitrile dichloropyrimidines 9 , and from the tricyanomethyl anion a hexatriene 10 and a triazine 11 could be prepared. The 1,5-dichloro substituted 2-azoniaallene salts 12 reacted as bifunctional electrophiles with nucleophiles such as benzophenone hydrazone or anilines, to furnish 1,3,5-triazinium salts 14 . Against benzohydrazide the allene 12j behaved as trivalent electrophile giving the bicyclic 1,3,5-oxadiazinium salt 13j , the constitution of which has been secured by a crystal structural analysis. The vinyl-2-azoniaallene salt 1i cyclized on heating to the 1,3-thiazinium salts 16, 17 . From 17 the triazinium salts 18 were prepared with alcohols.

Synthesis of deuterated cyclopropene fatty esters structurally related to palmitic and myristic acids

To develop a synthesis of tritiated cyclopropene fatty acids (CPFA), compounds that should prove useful for affinity labeling of desaturases in insect pheromone biosynthetic studies, a series of novel, selectively deuterated CPFA analogues was prepared and characterized. In methyl [16-²H]12,13-methylene-12-hexadecenoate, the incorporation of deuterium was achieved by treatment of the corresponding ω-chloro derivative with sodium borodeuteride in dimethylsulfoxide at 70°C for 24 h (67% yield) following conventional procedures. Alkylation of the tetrahydropyranyl derivative of 13-tridecynol in the presence of lithium diisopropylamide in tetrahydrofuran at −20°C with 1-chloro-3-iodopropane in hexamethylphosphoramide, followed by Jones oxidation of the crude product, yielded 16-chloro-12-hexadecynoic acid (54%), which was esterified to the corresponding methyl ester by treatment with potassium carbonate and methyl iodide in dimethylformamide. Treatment of this acetylenic ester with ethyldiazoacetate in the presence of activated copper-bronze as catalyst followed by hydrolysis in KOH solution at room temperature yielded 16-chloro-12,13-(carboxymethylene)-12-hexadecenoic acid. This diacid was treated with excess oxalyl chloride to give the corresponding diacyl chloride, which was decarbonylated in a diethyl ether solution with zinc chloride, and the cyclopropenium ions thus formed were added at −40°C to a methanolic sodium hydroxide solution of sodium borohydride to give methyl 16-chloro-12,13-methylene-12-hexadecenoate. Analogous procedures were followed to prepare methyl [17-²H]10,11-methylene-10-hexadecenoate, methyl [17-²H]11,12-methylene-11-hexadecenoate and methyl [17-²H]12,13-methylene-12-hexadecenoate from the corresponding diacids using sodium borodeuteride in the reduction of the cyclopropenium ions. Alternatively, methyl [2,2,3,3-²H₄]hexadecynoate, prepared by reaction of methyl 2,11-hexadecadiynoate with magnesium in deuterated methanol at room temperature, was submitted to the above cyclopropenylation and reductive decarbonylation sequence to give methyl [2,2,3,3,17-²H₅]-11,12-methylene-11-hexadecenoate. In summary, complementary methods for the selective incorporation of one to five deuterium atoms into cyclopropene fatty acids, at different sites, in moderate to high yields have been developed. The methods should easily be applicable to the preparation of the corresponding tritiated analogues.     

Synthesis of oligoethylene glycol ethers from the seed oil of Vernonia anthelmintica

The seed oil of Vernonia anthelmintica on reaction with diols (mono-, di-, tri-, or tetraethylene glycols) in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, followed by saponification and esterification (methanol/H⁺), gives the oligoethylene glycol ethers: methyl 12(13)-hydroxy-13(12) [2-hydroxy-ethyl-1-oxy]-octadec-9-enoate; methyl 12(13)-hydroxy-13(12)-[5-hydroxy-3-oxapentyl-1-oxy]-octadec-9-enoate; methyl 12(13)-hydroxy-13(12)-[8-hydroxy-3,6-dioxaoctyl-1-oxy]-octadec-9-enoate; and methyl 12(13)-hydroxy-13(12)-[11-hydroxy-3,6,9-trioxaundecyl-1-oxy]-octadec-9-enoate. Methyl 12,13-dihydroxyoctadec-9-enoate is a co-product in all reactions.     

Dehydration of 2-(2-Arylethyl)-2-hydroxy-4-oxopentanoic Acids and their hydrazones to form heterocycles

Dehydration of 2-(2-arylethyl)-2-hydroxy-4-oxopentanoic acids 1 with hydrochloric acid/acetic acid, affords 3-(2-arylethyl)-5-hydroxy-5-methyl-2(5H)-furanones 4 . Compounds of type 1 and 4 represent suitable precursors for the formation of pyridazin-3-ones 7 as they smoothly react with hydrazine. A new series of s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazin-3-ones 12 and tetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazines 15 are obtained from the 3-chloropyridazines 11 upon treatment with semicarbazide and sodium azide, respectively. Reaction of 11 with phenyl- acetyl-hydrazine provides 3-benzyl-6-phenyl-8-(2-phenyl-ethyl)-s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine 13 via dehydrative cyclization of the intermediate 14 which was clarified to exhibit tautomeric equilibria between enol–hydrazine form A and keto–hydrazine form B by means of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Attempts to synthesize 3-alloxy-pyridazines 18 by reacting 11 with sodium alloxide afford N-allyl compounds 17 .
