Synthesis of some new pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, pyrazolo[5,1-c]triazines and thieno[2,3-b]pyridines.
Background
Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines are purine analogs and therefore have valuable properties as antimetabolites in purine biochemical activity. This class of compounds has attracted wide pharmaceutical interest because of their antitrypanosomal activity [1], antischistosomal activity [2], and other activities such as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors [3], COX-2 selective inhibitors [4], AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors [5], KDR kinase inhibitors [6], selective peripheral benzodiazepine receptor ligaments [7], antimicrobial agents [8], and as antianxiety agents [9]. Recently other pharmaceutical activities have been reported, for example, as an agent for the treatment of sleep disorders [10] and as an oncological agent [6]. Also, pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines are known to exhibit a broad range of biological activities [11,12,13,14,15]. Due to their structural similarities to nucleic bases, pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines may act as metabolites and therefore they can be useful as antiviral and antitumor agents [11]. Pyrazolotriazines have indicated a remarkable cytotoxic activity against colon, breast, and lung carcinoma cells [16]. Some derivatives showed selective cytotoxicity in hypoxic and normoxic conditions [17]. The 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives have attracted considerable interest due to their wide spectra of biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antituberculosis, anti-hepatitis B viral, antileishmanial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, CNS depressant, anticancer, antioxidant, antidiabetic, molluscicidal, antihypertensive, diuretic, analgesic, antimicrobial, antitubercular, and anticonvulsant activities [18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27].
Results and discussion
Chemistry
The reaction of 1-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethan-1-one (1) with ethyl formate in diethyl ether in the presence of sodium methoxide has afforded sodium 3-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-olate (2). Likewise, compound (1) reacted with N,N-dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal in boiling xylene to afford 3-(dimethylamino)-1-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (6). The reactivity of compound (2) and compound (6) towards heterocyclic amines was inspected. In this manner, reaction of compound (2) or compound (6) with each of 3-amino-5-phenylpyrazole (3a), 3-amino-4-phenylpyrazole (3b), 3-amino-4-cyanopyrazole (3c), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3d), 2-aminobenzimidazole (3e) and 4,6-dimethyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine (3f) in refluxing piperidinium acetate, in each case, only one isolable product as evidenced by TLC. The isolated products (5a–f) (Scheme 1) were identified, on the base of their elemental analysis, spectral data and according to similar data obtained before [28,29,30].
The reaction of compound (2) or compound (6) with each of diazotized 3-amino-5-phenylpyrazole (8a) and diazotized 3-amino-4-phenylpyrazole (8b) in ethanol containing sodium acetate at 0–5 °C yielded products that were distinguished as (5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)(7-phenylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)-methanone (10a) and (5-methy-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)(8-phenylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)-methanone (10b), respectively (Scheme 2). The structures of the products (10a) and (10b) were consistent with their elemental and spectral (Ms, IR, 1H NMR, and the 13C NMR) analysis (see “Experimental section”). To account for the formation of the products 10a and 10b, it is suggested as depicted in (Scheme 2) that the reaction start with electrophilic substitution to yield the corresponding azo derivative, which undergoes in situ dehydrative cyclization, gave the corresponding 10 as a final product.
Treatment of compound (2) with each of benzenediazonium chloride (11a) or p-toluidine diazonium chloride (11b) in ethanol containing sodium acetate as a buffer solution yielded 3-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-oxo-2-(2-phenylhydrazono)propanal (12a), 3-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-oxo-2-(2-(p-tolyl)hydrazono)propanal (12b), respectively (Scheme 3). The structures of compound (12a) and compound (12b) were affirmed by elemental analysis, spectral data, and alternative synthetic route. In this way, 3-(dimethylamino)-1-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (6) was coupled with benzenediazonium chloride or p-toluidinediazonium chloride to give a product indistinguishable in all aspects (m.p., mixed m.p. and spectra) with compound (12a) and compound (12b), respectively. The 1H NMR spectrum of compound (12a) showed signals at δ = 2.06 (s, 3H, CH3), 2.34 (s, 3H, 4-CH3C6H4), 7.26–8.20 (m, 9H, ArH’s), 9.75 (s, 1H, CHO) and 14.39 (s, br., NH).
Reaction of compound (2) with cyanothioacetamide (13) in piperdinium acetate gave 2-mercapto-6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)nicotinonitrile (14). The Structure of compound (14) was elucidated by elemental analysis, spectral data, and alternative synthetic route or chemical transformation. Thus, treatment of compound (6) with cyanothioacetamide in ethanol containing a catalytic amount of piperidine under reflux gave a product identical in all aspects (m.p., mixed m.p. and spectra) with compound (14). The product formulated from treatment of compound (14) with ethyl chloroacetate, in N,N-dimethylformamide containing potassium hydroxide was ethyl 3-amino-6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate (15a) corresponding to the addition, dehydrochlorination, and cyclization reactions (Scheme 4). IR spectrum of compound (15a) showed a band at 3460, 3355 (NH2 group) and no band of the CN function between 2100 and 2300 cm−1. The 1H NMR spectrum of compound (15a) revealed signals at 1.26 (t, 3H, J = 7 Hz, CH2CH3), 2.34 (s, 3H, 4-CH3C6H4), 2.64 (s, 3H, CH3), 4.23 (q, 2H, J = 7 Hz, CH2CH3), 6.8 (s, br., 2H, NH2), 7.32–7.63 (m, 5H, ArH’s) and 8.81–8.83 (d, 1H, ArH) and absence of signals of the –SCH2– group. These results proved that the CN and the –SCH2– groups were both involved in the cyclization step leading to compound (15a).
Also, compound (14) was reacted with each of chloroacetone and ω-bromoacetophenone in N,N-dimethylformamide containing potassium hydroxide to afford 1-(3-amino-6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-2-yl)ethan-1-one (15b) and 6-(3-amino-6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-2-yl)(phenyl)methanone (15c) respectively. Similarly, compound (14) was reacted with chloroacetonitrile afforded 3-amino-6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carbonitrile (16), in a good yield (Scheme 4). The structures of compounds (15a–c) and (16) were confirmed by elemental analysis and spectral data. Treatment of compound (6) with each of ethyl acetoacetate, acetylacetone, ethyl cyanoacetate, malononitrile or benzoylacetonitrile in boiling acetic acid containing ammonium acetate under reflux gave ethyl 2-methyl-6-(5-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridine-3-carboxylate (17), 1-(2-methyl-6-(5-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridin-3-yl)ethanone (18), 1,2-dihydro-6-(5-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-2-oxopyridine-3-carbonitrile (20), 2-amino-6-(5-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridine-3-carbonitrile (21), 6-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridin-3-phenyl-2-carbonitrile (22), respectively (Scheme 5). Structures (17), (18), and (20–22) were confirmed based on elemental analysis and spectral data (cf. “Experimental section”).
Next, 4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-amine (25) was prepared from the reaction of 2-bromo-1-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethanone (23) [31] with thiourea. The structure of compound (25) was established based on elemental analysis, spectral data, and chemical transformation. Thus, compound (25) was coupled with arenediazonium chlorides in ethanol contained sodium acetate to afford 4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-5-(phenyldiazenyl)thiazol-2-amine (26a) and 5-((4-chlorophenyl)diazenyl)-4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-amine (26b), respectively (Scheme 6). More evidence on the correct structure of compound (26a) was obtained via reaction of thiourea with 2-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-2-oxo-N-phenylacetohydrazonoyl bromide (28) in boiling ethanol (cf. “Experimental section”).
1-(4-(5-Methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-yl)-3-phenylthiourea (27) was prepared via reaction of compound (25) with phenyl isothiocyanate in N,N-dimethylformamide containing potassium hydroxide, followed by acidification with hydrochloric acid. The structure of compound (27) was confirmed by elemental analysis, spectral data, and chemical transformation. Thus, the appropriate hydrazonoyl chloride (30a–d) were reacted with thioanilide (27) in N,N-dimethylformamide in presence of triethylamine or potassium hydroxide to give one isolable product according to TLC. The structure of the product may be one from the structure of compound (31), (31A) or (31B). The obtained spectral data, however, compatible only with the structures of (31a–d) and formulated as: N-(3-aryl-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-amine (31a–d) (Scheme 7).
Treatment of thiourea derivative (27) with ω-bromoacetophenone or ethyl chloroacetate in refluxing ethanol in the presence of triethylamine gave N-(3,4-diphenylthiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazol-2-amine (32) and 2-((4-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-thiazol-2-yl)imino)-3-phenylthiazolidin-4-one (33), respectively (Scheme 8).

Conclusions
New series of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, pyrazolo[5,1-c]triazines, thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and polysubstituted pyridines containing the 1,2,3,-triazole moiety were synthesized via reactions of sodium 3-(5-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-olate with the appropriate heterocyclic amines and its diazonium salt. In addition, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles and, 1,3-thiazoles were acquired in a decent yield via the reaction of substituted thiourea with the appropriate hydrazonoyl chlorides and halogenated ketenes.
