Heterocyclic Hydrazones

Oxidative Couplings of Heterocyclic Hydrazones. This method has opened the way to the preparation of azo derivatives of diazo compounds unobtainable by other means, ie, heterocycHc compounds ia which the diazotizable amino group is conjugated with the heterocycHc nitrogen atom as ia 2- and 4-amiQopyridine, compounds which do not normally yield stable diazonium salts (38). The reaction occurs as illustrated by equation 7 for the iateraction of (A/-methylcarbostyryl)hydrazone [28219-37-6] and dimethyl aniline the overall process is oxidation. 

Recent studies have been directed towards the synthesis of heterocyclic hydrazones which have lower toxicities than thiosemicarbazones [44], It has been proposed that the hydrazinic N-H group is essential for activity since it might be involved in a crucial radical formation step important in the mechanism of RDR. This is supported by the loss of antileprotic activity for this series of compounds when the hydrazinic hydrogen is replaced by a methyl group [44]. The heterocyclic hydrazones, like thiosemicarbazones, behave as tridentate ligands.

Several heterocyclic hydrazones 32 have been oxidized in CH3CN-O.I mol/1 Et4C104 solution with addition of 60% HCIO4 to s-triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine derivatives 33 in yields ranging from 55 to 92% [56] (Scheme 20). 

Several heterocyclic hydrazones (22) have been oxidized in CH3CN-Et4NC104 solution with addition of 60% HC104 to 5-triazolo [4,3-a]pyridine (23) derivatives in yields ranging from 55 to 92%73 [Eq. (31)]. 

Oxidative ring closure by formation of a nitrogen-nitrogen bond may be obtained, using suitable heterocyclic hydrazones, formazans, and certain other azomethine functions as substrates. 

Systems based on the reaction of iron salts with heterocyclic hydrazines and on the oxidative coupling of 2-aminothiazoles with naphthols have also been used (64USP3129109). In a similar process a heterocyclic hydrazone, such as the benzothiazole (174), is cleaved in the presence of an oxidizing agent, and the resulting oxidation products react immediately to give an azo dye (175) (62USP3076721).

Hydrazone Dyes If the diazonium salts of aromatic amines are coupled with the methylene derivatives of N heterocycles, hydrazone dyes (i.e., the monoaza derivatives of the enamine dyes) are obtained. Paper and leather can be dyed in yellow to red shades with these dyes [23], They are moderately lightfast on polyacrylonitrile. If the diazo components contain substituents in the 2-position relative to the amino group that can form a hydrogen bond (e.g., 2-nitroaniline [24] or 1-ami-noanthraquinone [25]), lightfastness is improved considerably (10). 

As far as we are aware, the only examples of reactions between two solids in a solvent-free and catalyst-free environment were performed with neat 5 or 8-oxobenzopyran-2(lH)-ones, with a variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic hydrazines, providing rapid access to several synthetically useful heterocyclic hydrazones (Scheme 16) [71]. 

An environmentally benign aqueous protocol for the synthesis of heterocyclic hydrazones using PSSA as a catalyst has been developed (Scheme 8.27). The simple reaction proceeds efficiently in water in the absence of any organic solvent under MW irradiation and involves basic filtration as the product isolation step. ... 

The lithiation of hydrazones derived from (R)- or (S)-l-amino-2-methoxymethylpyrrolidine, followed by Michael addition, is the basis of a diastereoselective and enantioselective synthesis of 5-oxo-esters.4 Lithiated heterocyclic hydrazones can... 

Alkylidenehydrazinothiazoles (297) can be prepared either from 2-hydrazinothiazoles (549) or by direct heterocyclization (527). Their characteristic infrared bands have been reported (550). The main mass spectrometric peaks of (4-coumarinyl-2-thiazolyl)hydrazone (302) (Scheme 179) (134, 551) are situated at mle = 361. 244, 243, 118, 216, 202, 174, 117 the proposed interpretation of the fragmentation pattern should, however, be reconsidered. Scheme l80 summarizes some representative reactions of this class of compounds. 

Despite the inconveniences, a certain number of studies have been carried out, particularly concerning dyes containing azomethine groups. Such as hydrazones, pyrazolones, formazans, and selenazoles quinoids. Saturated heterocycles, that is, selenazolines and selenazolidines. have also been tackled. Selenium derivatives for pharmacological or physiological applications are little developed by comparison with their thiazole homologs. 

Many of these compounds ate highly colored and have found use as dyes and photographic chemicals. Several pharmaceuticals and pesticides are members of this class. An extremely sensitive analytical method for low hydrazine concentrations is based on the formation of a colored azine. They are also useful in heterocycle formation. Several reviews are available covering the chemistry of hydrazones (80,89) and azines (90). 

Hydrazino groups are also converted into H-compounds with mercury(II) oxide (74CR(C)-(278)427) in other reactions they have given hydrazones, or have been converted into pyrazoles and fused heterocyclic rings (77JAP(K)7785194), e.g. (72) -> (73).

Preparation of thiadiazoles via the Hurd-Mori cyclization has led to the synthesis of a variety of biologically active and functionally useful compounds. Discussion of reactions prior to 1998 on the preparation of thiadiazoles have been compiled in a review by Stanetty et al Recent syntheses of thiadiazoles as intermediates for useful transformations to other heterocycles have appeared. For example, the thiadiazole intermediate 36 was prepared from the hydrazone 35 and converted to benzofuran upon treatment with base. Similarly, the thiadiazole acid chloride 38 was converted to the hydrazine 39 which, upon base treatment, provided the pyrazolone, which can be sequentially alkylated in situ to provide the product 40. ... 

Six-membered heterocycles with one tellurium and two nitrogen atoms in the ring are represented by 2-aroyl derivatives of 1,2,3-telluradiazine and 5,6-benzo-1,2,3-telluradiazine 89. For the synthesis of these compounds, IV-aroylhydrazones of 2-bromotellurenylcyclohexenealdehyde and 2-bromotellurenylbenzaldehyde 90 were used as the starting materials (98ZOK959). Dehydrobromination of the hydrazones 90 occurs on treatment with triethylamine and gives the heterocycles 89 in about 80% yields. 

There are also some couplings in which hydrazones are formed but for which the azo tautomer is not detectable and probably does not exist. This is the case in some coupling reactions involving methyl groups of aromatic heterocycles (see, for example, 12.48 and 12.49 in Sec. 12.5). Replacement of a methyl proton by an arylazo group (Scheme 12-3) would result in an azo compound containing an sp3-hybridized — CH2 — group (12.1). The latter is less stable than the tautomeric hydrazone (12.2), in which there is a n-n orbital overlap from the heteroaromatic to the aromatic system.

DipolarCycloaddition Reactions. The 1,3-dipolar cyclization of nitrile oxide with dipolarophiles generates structurally important heterocycles. As shown by Lee,139 the reaction can be carried out in an aqueous-organic biphasic system in which the nitrile oxide substrates can be generated from oximes or hydrazones in situ. The method provides a convenient one-pot procedure for generating a variety of heterocyclic products. 

Dyes (11) from azophenols exist totally in the azo form8 whereas dyes (12) from heterocyclic couplers such as pyrazolones8,11 and acyclic couplers such as acetoacetanilides8 12 (13) exist totally in the hydrazone form. Dyes (14) derived from amino couplers exist in the azo form.8 However, as described above, all these dyes will exist predominantly in the azo form in the derived metal complexes. 

The thermal hydrazone-azomethine imine isomerization can be easily performed under microwave irradiation in the absence of solvent. The subsequent 1,3-dipolar cydoadditions with electron-defident dipolarophiles occur in only a few minutes to afford the corresponding cycloadducts. The use of pyrazolyl hydrazones 205 leads to valuable compounds, such as bipyrazoles 213, in good yields and this provides a new approach to the preparation of these heterocyclic derivatives [116] (Scheme 9.67). Reactions undertaken with dassical heating under comparable reaction conditions (time and temperature) lead to cydoadduct yields that are considerably lower and, indeed, several dipolarophiles do not react at all.
