Pyrido pyrimidine oxides

Isoxazolo[3,4-c/]pyrimidine 39 when treated with cyanoolefins 40, in the presence of TEA as catalyst, gave biologically interesting pyrido[2,3-c/]pyrimidine oxides 41 in excellent yields. Probably, a [4+2] cycloaddition of the azadiene moiety of 39 with keteneimine intermediates, derived from 40 and TEA, is involved in the process <03TL1847>. 

Enzymic oxidations at the 7-position of pyrido[2,3-oxygenated derivatives and of the 8-N-oxide have been observed in the metabolism of the pyrido[2,3-e/]pyrimidine analogues of the antiepileptic drug methaqualone (75MI21502, 74MI21500). 

Appropriate pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5-ones with formyl groups in the 6-position have been oxiized to piromidic (68) and pipemidic (69) acids, or to intermediates for these, using moist silver oxide, chromium trioxide (potassium dichromate), potassium permanganate or, alternatively, sodium chlorite/hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid. 6-Acetyl groups have been similarly oxidized using sodium hypobromite in aqueous dioxane, whilst 2-acetyl groups give dimethylaminomethylene derivatives en route to 2-pyrazolylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines. 

The corresponding saturated dialkylamino ketones (Mannich bases) have also been used to provide 5,6-dihydro derivatives, which are oxidized in air to aromatic pyrido[2,3-[Pg.229]

Little data is available, but methyl groups a and y to ring nitrogens appear to be activated. 2-Methyl and 6-methyl substituents in pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidines undergo bromination 38.79,12.9 oxidative decarboxylation, and form styryl compounds.The 6-methyl group in pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines could not be brominated. ... 

Oxidation of 9-(4-pyridylvinyl)-7-methyl-2-morphohno-4//-pyrido[l, 2-a -pyrimidin-4-one with cetyltrimethylammonium permanganate in CH2CI2 at room temperature for 5 h yielded a 9-formyl derivative (01MIP9). 

Reaction of 2-(A -allylamino)-3-formyl-4//-pyrido[l, 2-u]pyrimidin-4-ones 219 in EtOH with HONH2 HCI yielded ( )-oximes 220 at 0°C and 221 (R = PhCH2) under reflux. Heating 220 (R = H) in a boiling solvent afforded cw-fused tetracyclic cycloadducts 221 (R = H). In an aprotic solvent (e.g., benzene or MeCN) the main a>fused cycloadducts 221 (R = H) were accompanied by a mixture of trauA-fused cycloadducts 222, A -oxides 223 and tetracyclic isoxazoline 224 (96T887). The basicity of the 2-allylamino moiety of compounds 219 affected the rate of the conversion. Cycloadditions were also investigated in dioxane and BuOH. 

Cyclization of 3-cyano-2-[(3-hydroxypropyl)amino]-5-(4-pyridyl)pyri-dine-l -oxide (298) in POCI3 yielded 9-cyano-7-(4-pyridyl)-3,4-dihydro-2/f-pyrido[],2-n]-pyrimidine I -oxide (299) (94EJM175). After heating 3-cyano-4-trifluoromethyl-6-phenyl-2-[(3-hydroxypropyl- and 3-hydroxybutyl)-amino] pyridines in boiling POCI3 for 1 h, the product was treated with aqueous NH4OH to yield 6-phenyl-8-trifluoromethyl-9-cyano-3,4-dihydro-2//-pyr-ido-[l,2-n]pyrimidine and its 4-methyl derivative (01CHE329). 

The one-pot MCR of methylene active nitriles 47 has been used in the synthesis of both pyrano- and pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones in a single-mode microwave reactor [90]. Microwave irradiation of either barbituric acids 61 or 6-amino- or 6-(hydroxyamino)uracils 62 with triethyl-orthoformate and nitriles 47 (Z = CN, C02Et) with acetic anhydride at 75 °C for 2-8 min gave pyrano- and pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines in excellent yield and also provided a direct route to pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine N-oxides (Scheme 27). 

The reaction of pyrido[2,3-c/]pyrimidine-3-oxide (415) and diethyl malonate in the presence of sodium ethylate in ethanol at 0°C for 10 min led to the formation of Af-[3-(l,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-2-pyridyl]aminomethylene-malonate (416) in 73% yield, but at ambient temperature for 1.5 hr, the product was diethyl N-(3-cyano-2-pyridyl)aminomethylenemaIonate in 61% yield (83JOC4132). 

Some unusual syntheses of substituted 2,2 -bipyridines deserve mention. Tetracyclone (tetraphenylcyclopentadienone) on heating with picolinonitrile at 215°C affords 3,4,5,6-tetraphenyl-2,2 -bipyridine, whereas 5-methyl-2,2 -bipyridine and some polysubstituted 2,2 -bipyridines are obtained by the oxidative degradation of the antibiotic streptonigrin. 5-Aldehydo-6-amino-2,2 -bipyridines are obtained by acid hydrolysis of pyrido[2,3-[Pg.311]

Microwave-assisted multicomponent reaction of 6-amino- or hydroxy-aminouracil derivatives with benzaldehyde and malononitrile or ethyl cyanoacetate in the solid state in the absence or presence of Et3N for 5-8 min afforded the pyridopyrimidine derivatives 463 <2003TL8307>. Similarly, 6-aminouracil derivatives or 6-hydroxyamino analogues were reacted with HC(OEt)3 and active methylene compounds [CH2(CN)2 or NCCH2C02Et] in the presence of AcOH under microwave-assisted conditions to give the pyrido[2,3-r7 pyrimidines 464 and their iV-oxides 465 within 2 or 8 min, respectively. The reaction proceeded under thermal conditions in ethanol or without solvent for 1—4h to give 464 and 465 in 45-70% and 35-50% yield, respectively <2004SL283>.
