Pyridazine 3-chloro-6-methyl

A simple fragmentation pattern is also characteristic for chloro-, methyl- and amino-pyridazines. Pyridazinone fragments by loss of carbon monoxide followed by loss of N2 (Scheme 2). 

Chloro-4-methyl- and 6-methoxy-4-methyl-pyridazine 1-oxides give the corresponding 4-acetoxymethyl derivatives, while the corresponding 6-substituted 5-methylpyridazine 1-oxides do not react at the methyl group. 

When an acetylamino group is attached at an ortho position the replacement of chlorine is followed by cyclization. For example, 4-acetylamino-5-chloro-l-phenylpyridazin-6(lH)-one is converted with hydrogen sulfide in DMF to 2-methyl-6-phenylthiazolo[4,5- f]pyridazin-7(6//)-one (116). 

Amino-6-chloro-4-methyl- and 3-amino-6-chloro-5-methyl-pyridazine and 3-amino-6-methylpyridazin-4(l//)-one are transformed with sodium nitrite in the presence of acid into the corresponding oxo compounds. If concentrated hydrochloric acid is used, in some instances the corresponding chloro derivatives are obtained as side products. On the other hand, 3-, 4-, 5- and 6-aminopyridazine 1-oxides and derivatives are transformed into stable diazonium salts, which can easily be converted into the corresponding halo derivatives. In this way 3-, 4-, 5- and 6-bromopyridazine 1-oxides, 5-chloropyridazine 1-oxide, 3,4,5-trichloropyridazine 1-oxide and 6-chloropyridazine 1-oxide can be obtained. 

Direct deactivation by a methoxy group makes 3-chloro-6-methoxy-pyridazine unreactive toward sulfanilamide anion in contrast to its 6-chloro, 6-methyl, and 6-hydrogen analogs. Both direct and indirect deactivation of the two chlorines in 3,6-dichloro-4-methoxy-pyridazine (160) are possible the greater reactivity at the... 

These pyridazines are subject to direct deactivation of the leaving group. It would appear from the conditions used in its reactions with ammonia (115°) and methylamine (50°) that 4-chloro-2-ethylthiopyrimidine (225) is somewhat deactivated (indirect). In various aminations of pyrimidines, the effect of an alkylthio group seems to be very mildly deactivating, like that of methyl groups. However, these surmises from the conditions used are not as reliable as the direct qualitative comparison described above and the kinetic data. 

Bromo-6-chloro-2-methyl-imidazo-( 1,2b)-pyridazine-bromine complex dichloromethane 20°C, 2 min. 75 % (40 %) (refs. 13,31)... 

On the other hand, 2-chloro-6-methyl-3,4-pyridinedicarboximide 309 was reacted with phenylhydrazine to yield the salt of A -phenylpyrido[3,4-<7]pyridazine 313 or 314. The iV-phenylaminoimide 310 was isomerized to the corresponding 2- and 3-phenyl isomers 311 and 312 under the influence of heating in methanolic solution of MeONa (Scheme 8) <1998FA468>.
