Beiträge zur Chemie der pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazine – Reaktivität gegenüber Heterocumulenen der Kohlensäurereihe und Ketenen

In order to extend the ring transformation reactions of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazines 1 which contain a cyclic 2-aza-1,3-diene substructure acceptor-substituted heterocumulenes 2 have been tested as dienophiles. In contrast to other reactions described to date, exclusively the exocyclic imino function was attacked. In the course of a hetero-metathesis the new aryl-(4-thiono-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-yl)amines 4Ra and aryl-(4-seleno-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-yl)amines 4Rb were formed. In the case of isocyanates of type 2e and 2f the preliminary [2+2]-cycloaddition reaction preferably takes place on the C–N-bond of the isocyanate group leading to acyl–aryl substituted pyridopyrazines 4Re and 4Rf . The reaction of 1 with in situ generated ketenes of type 6 gave the pyrrolo-condensed pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazine 9 which can further be transformed to the highly substituted pyrido-pyrrolinones 10 . Whereas acetyl chloride only led to N-acylated pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazines 12 , benzoyl chloride in addition to 12 astonishingly formed the double-acylated pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazines 13     

Synthese von 7-Alkyliden-tricyclo[6.3.0.02,6]undeca-4,9-dien-3,11-dionen

Synthesis of 7-Alkylidene-tricyclo[6.3.0.0^2,6]undeca-4,9-diene-3,11-diones The cycloaddition reaction of 6-alkyl- as well as 6,6-dialkyl substituted pentafulvenes 1a – f with 1,4-benzoquinone proceeded efficiently and highly endo-stereoselectively when water was used as the solvent. The adducts 2a – f easily underwent intramolecular photocycloaddition when irradiated in acetone or cyclohexane. The resulting trishomocubanediones 3a – f could be transformed into linearly fused tricyclopentanoids 4a–f via flash vacuum thermolysis.     

Vanadyl Acetylacetonate Catalyzed Methylenation of Imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines by Using Dimethylacetamide as a Methylene Source: Direct Access to Bis(imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridin‐3‐yl)methanes

An efficient protocol has been developed for the methylenation of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines using dimethylacetamide (DMA) as methylene source in the presence of vanadyl acetylacetonate [VO(acac)₂] as the catalyst and iodobenzene diacetate as the oxidant. The reaction involves coupling of sp³‐ and sp²‐hybridized carbons and proceeds through the formation of an iminium ion. A wide variety of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines were converted to bis(imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridin‐3‐yl)methanes in good to excellent yields. A gram‐scale reaction demonstrated the potential for the scale‐up processes.

     

Pyryliumverbindungen. 41. 7aH-Cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-one durch Ringtransformation von 2,4,6-Triaryl-pyryliumsalzen mit acyclischen 1,2-Diketonen

Pyrylium Compounds. 41. 7aH-Cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-ones by Ring Transformation of 2,4,6-Triarylpyrylium Salts with Acyclic 1,2-Diketones Reaction of 2,4,6-triarylpyrylium salts 1 with acyclic 1,2-diketones 2 (CH₃COCOR, R = Me, Ph) in the presence of an appropriate condensing agent (e.g. piperidine acetate, triethyl-amine/acetic acid, sodium acetate) yields the hitherto unknown 2,4,5,7a-substituted 7aH-cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-ones 3 as a result of a new type of ring transformation (2,5-[C₄O+C]/2,3-[C₂+C₃]). A characteristic feature of compounds 3 is their ability to undergo electrophilic substitutions. Thus, stepwise bromination of the 7a-methyl derivative 3a in acetic acid affords 6-bromo-7a-methyl-2,4,5-triphenyl-cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-one ( 4 ) and 3,6-dibromo-7a-methyl-2,4,5-triphenyl-cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-one ( 5 ); analogously, nitration of 3a leads to 7a-methyl-6-nitro-2,4,5-triphenyl-cyclopenta[b]pyran-7-one ( 6 ), indicating that position 6 is the favoured position for electrophilic substitutions. Contrary to the 3,5-unsubstituted pyrylium salts 1 , the 3,5-dimethyl-2,4,6-triphenyl-pyrylium perchlorate ( 13 ) reacts with 1,2-diketones 2 through a 2,6-[C₅+C] transformation to give arylsubstituted 1,2-diones 14 . The structure of the new compounds was determined by spectroscopic methods and by a single crystal X-ray analysis of the dibromo derivative 5 .     

Gold(I)‐Catalyzed Cascade for Synthesis of Pyrrolo[1,2‐a:2′,1′‐c]‐/Pyrido[2,1‐c]pyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoxalinones

This strategy presents an atom economical and environmentally friendly transformation, in which two new C N bonds and one new C C bond are formed in a one‐pot reaction process.     

Synthese und Reaktionen von 2-[Bis-(alkylthio)-methyliden]-indan-1,3-dionen

Synthesis and Reactions of 2-[Bis-(alkylthio)-methyliden]-indan-1,3-diones The 2-[bis-(alkylthio)-methyliden]-indan-1,3-diones 3 and especially the methyl-compound 3a react with nucleophiles by substitution of the CH₃ S group. The reaction with amines are yields the S,N or N,N-acetales 7 and 8 , respectively. Diamines, amino hydroxy- or amino-mercapto compounds as dinucleophiles give the cyclic compounds 9 or the condensed heterocycles 12 and 16 , where the carbonyl group has been integrated in the cyclisation. Also carbanions react with 3a under substitution. The structures of the final products are determined with ir-, ¹H-n.m.r.- and ms-spectra.     

N,N‐Dimethylformamide as a Methylenating Reagent: Synthesis of Heterodiarylmethanes via Copper‐Catalyzed Coupling between Imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines and Indoles/N,N‐Dimethylaniline

A new copper‐catalyzed, efficient method for the synthesis of heterodiarylmethanes through the coupling of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines with indoles employing N,N‐dimethylformamide as a methylenating reagent has been developed. A library of 3‐(1H‐indol‐3‐ylmethyl)‐imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine derivatives has been synthesized under aerobic reaction conditions. This protocol is also applicable for the synthesis of (4‐imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridin‐3‐ylmethyl)(phenyl)dimethylamines. The method is highly selective for the hetero‐coupling.

A convenient gold‐catalyzed strategy for the synthesis of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine derivatives has been developed via gold carbene complexes. This transformation opens a new synthetic route to a variety of 3‐carbonyl‐substituted imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines using air as oxidant affording the products in good yields.

     

Synthesis of 4-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalines

A concise approach to 4-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalines 7 is described, starting from 1-fluoro-2-nitrobenzene ( 3 ). The high variability in the functionalization of the imidazo [1,2-a]quinoxaline-4-position is due to the easy introduction of these substituents by N-acylation in the second last step.     

Direct Construction of the 9H‐Pyrrolo[1,2‐a]azepin‐9‐amine Skeleton via [4+3] Annulation of Alkyl 2‐Aroyl‐1‐chlorocyclo‐ propanecarboxylates

A direct diastereoselective synthesis approach of important 9H‐pyrrolo[1,2‐a]azepin‐9‐amines was established via base‐promoted [4+3] annulation between donor–acceptor reagents derived from 1H‐pyrrole‐2‐carbaldehydes and alkyl 2‐aroyl‐1‐chlorocyclopropanecarboxylates. This transition metal‐free domino reaction proceeded quickly under mild basic conditions, affording potentially bioactive azepine derivatives in moderate to high yields with high diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1).

Some new 3^′,5^′-substituted-5H,3^′ H-spirodibenzo[a, d]cycloheptene-5,2^′-[1,3,4]thiadiazole and 10,11-dihydro-5H,3^′ H-spirodibenzo[a, d]cycloheptene-5,2^′-[1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives 3a–n were regioselectively synthesized under 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 5-thiooxo-5H-dibenzo[a, d]cyclo-heptene and 5-thiooxo-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a, d]cycloheptene with a variety of nitrilimines (generated in situ via dehydrohalogenation of the corresponding hydrazonoyl chlorides in the presence of triethylamine). The new products were tested for antiinflammatory, analgesic, and ulcerogenic score activities comparable to Indomethacin. Compounds 3i–l showed significant activity compared to Indomethacin.

An efficient copper‐catalyzed oxidative coupling of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines with methyl ketones to directly generate structurally sophisticated 1,2‐dicarbonyl imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine derivatives under oxidative conditions is described. The reaction proceeds in good yields using the environmental friendly molecular oxygen as the oxidant. ¹⁸O‐Labelling experiments unambiguously established that the oxygen of the dicarbonyl products originated from oxygen rather than from water.

Reaction of N-1-\{3-methyl-5-[(E)-2-aryl-1-ethenyl]-4-isoxazolyl}-2-chloroacetamide (2) with aryl isothiocyanates yielded 3,3-methyl-5-[(E)-2-aryl-1-ethenyl]-4-isoxazolyl-2-(arylimino)-1,3-thiazolan-4-ones (3). Cyclocondensation of 3 with mercaptoacetic acid furnished novel isoxazolyl-1,6-dithia-4,9-diazaspiro[4.4]nonane-3,8-diones (4a–h). Cycloaddition of 3 with benzonitrile oxides afforded novel isoxazolyl 1-oxa-6-thia-2,4,9-triazaspiro[4.4]non-2-ene-8-ones (5a–h). Compounds 4a–h and 5a–h showed significant biological activity against all the standard strains.     

Pyryliumverbindungen. 42. Benzocycloalkenone und Dihydro-2H,7H-1-benzopyranone aus 2,4,6-Triaryl-pyryliumsalzen und Cycloalkan-1,2-dionen

Pyrylium Compounds. 42. Benzocycloalkenones and Dihydro-2H,7H-1-benzopyranones from 2,4,6-Triarylpyrylium Salts and Cycloalkane-1,2-diones 2,4,6-Triarylpyrylium salts 1 react with cycloalkane-1,2-diones 2 in the presence of an appropriate condensing agent to yield benzocycloalkenones 3 . Thus, sodium acetate and cyclo-hexane-1,2-dione ( 2a ) lead to the dihydro-2H-naphthalenones 3a – i , whereas with cycloheptane-1,2-dione ( 2b ) and piperidine acetate, triethylamine or sodium acetate the tetrahydro-5H-benzo-cyclohepten-5-ones 3j – r are formed. As shown for the example 3a, j → 4a, b , benzocycloalkenones of type 3 can be converted into phthalazines 4 on heating with hydrazine in ethanol. By reaction of the dione 2a and an equimolar mixture of triethylamine and acetic acid or morpholine acetate with the salts 1 5,6-dihydro-2H,7H-1-benzopyran-8-ones 5 are obtained as a result of a new type of ring transformation. The pyrans 5 can be cleaved with perchloric acid in ethanol to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-8-oxo-1-benzopyrylium perchlorates 6 . If the pyrans 5 are heated with sodium acetate in ethanol, a conversion to benzocycloalkenones 3 is achieved (cf. 5a → 3a ). The structure of the new compounds was established by spectroscopic methods.     

Gold‐Catalyzed Redox Synthesis of Imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines using Pyridine N‐Oxide and Alkynes

A mild, catalytic, atom economical synthesis of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines has been developed: catalytic dichloro(2‐pyridinecarboxylato)gold [PicAuCl₂] in the presence of an acid produces a range of imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines in good yields starting from alkynes and 2‐aminopyridine N‐oxides. This strategy is mild and foreseen to be of particular use for the installation of stereogenic centers adjacent to the imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine ring without loss of enantiomeric excess.

Comparison of the Morphological Transforming Activities of Fjord-Region PAHs with Dibenzo[a,e]Pyrene and Benzo[a]Pyrene

The morphological transforming activities in mouse embryo C3H10T1/2CL8 (C3H10T1/2) cells were examined for six PAHs: benzo[c]chrysene (B[c]C); benzo[g]chrysene (B[g]C); benzo[c]phenanthrene (B[c]P); dibenzo[a, l]pyrene (DB[a, l]P); dibenzo[a,e]pyrene (DB[a,e]P) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P). C3H10T1/2 cells treated with B[c]P or B[g]C at concentrations of 0–3 μg/ml did not produce any transformed Type II or III foci after 24 hr of exposure. Concurrent cytotoxicity was observed. Under the same conditions, B[a]P and B[c]C were active, with B[c]C approximately one-half the activity of B[a]P. However, after a 48-hr treatment, B[c]P and B[g]C gave significant activity measured as both foci/dish or the number of dishes exhibiting foci. After a 24-hr treatment, comparison of B[a]P with two dibenzopyrenes, DB[a, l]P and DB[a,e]P, gave activities in the order: DB[a, l]P > B[a]P > DB[a,e]P. After 48 hr of treatment, both B[a]P and DB[a,e]P had similar activities.     

Alkaliinduzierte Bildung von ortho-Semidinen aus 3-Nitro- und 3-Azo-carbazolen – Synthese von 8,16-Dialkyldiindolo[3,2-a,d]phenazinen

Alkali-induced Formation of ortho-Semidines from 3-Nitro- and 3-Azocarbazoles – Synthesis of 8,16-Dialkyldiindolo[3,2-a,d]phenazines The ortho-semidines 9-alkyl-4-(9-alkylcarbazol-3-ylamino)-3-aminocarbazoles ( 2a – d ) are formed either by reduction of 9-alkyl-3-nitro-carbazoles ( 1a – d ) or of the azo-( 6 ) or the azoxycarbazoles ( 7 ) with zinc in alkaline alcoholic solution. It could be shown by cross experiments that the semidines 2 result from an intramolecular rearrangement. The compounds 2a – d are oxidized by air or H₂O₂ to the 8,16-dialkyldiindolo[3,2-a,d]phenazines ( 3a – d ). Reduction of 1a – c with Raney-alloy affords the 9-alkyl-3-azoxycarbazoles 7a – c in good yields.

A series of novel 3-[6-(4-substituted phenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-3-ylmethyl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro[1]benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives (7a–7h) have been synthesized from 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-3-carbonitrile (1) through a multi-step reaction sequence. The key intermediate (6) on condensation with various substituted aromatic carboxylic acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride afforded the series of title compounds (7a–7h). The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were established on the basis of their IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry spectral data.
