Quinolone oxidation

The structure of the product of the Reimer-Tiemann reaction of 1,2,3-trimethylindole (24) has been confirmed as 3-dichloromethyl-1,3-dimethyl-2-methyleneindoline (25) by spectroscopy and oxidation to the iV -methyloxindole when the dichlorocarbene was generated under neutral conditions a ring-expanded product, 3-chloro-1,4-dimethyl-2-methylene-1,2-dihydroquinoline (26) could be isolated and oxidized to the corresponding a-quinolone. These reactions presumably proceed by mechanisms similar to those discussed for 2,3-di-... 

Elvitegravir (18, GS-9137, JTK-303, EVG) is the second IN strand transfer inhibitor to advance into phase III clinical trials (Figure 7). EVG was derived from the quinolone antibiotics which do not show IN activity [39-41]. Through careful optimization, this work resulted in EVG displaying enzyme and antiviral activity of 7.2 and 0.9 nM, respectively. EVG has moderate bioavailability in preclinical species (29 and 34%), low clearance (Qp 0.5 and l.OL/h/kg) and a moderate half-life of 2.3 and 5.2h in rats and dogs, respectively [42]. It is primarily metabolized via CYP450 oxidation and shows a marked increase in human exposure with RTV boosting. 

Patients with acute chest syndrome should receive incentive spirometry appropriate fluid therapy broad-spectrum antibiotics including a mac-rolide or quinolone and, for hypoxia or acute distress, oxygen therapy. Steroids and nitric oxide are being evaluated. 

Reaction of these antibiotics with chlorine mostly generated chlorinated and OH-substituted by-products [86, 87]. Unlike fluroquinolones, whose quinolone ring is left mostly intact, disinfection with CIO2 may diminish the antibiotic capacity of tetracyclines because it leads to cleavage of the tetracyclines ring system [86,88]. On the other hand, oxidation of p-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin, amoxicillin, and cefadroxil with CIO2 leads to the formation of hydroquinone and a wide range of substituted phenols [89].

Quinolinium salts react similarly to pyridinium compounds when oxidized. N-Alkylated salts 142, for example, yield only 2-quinolones 143 after Decker oxidation. 4-Quinolones 144 cannot be isolated (1892CB443 70HCA1903). 

The influence of a C-2 substituent upon the reaction course has been investigated. If only a 2-aryl group is present, as in 145 (R = H), then 4-quinolones 146 are formed (85H2375). But ferricyanide oxidation of 2,4-diphenyl derivatives resulted in the release of the 2-phenyl group and formation of the quinolones 147 instead of the exptected indole derivatives (83CCC2965). 

Surprisingly, Af-methoxyquinolinium salts 152 (R = 3-CN, 4-CN) could not be oxidized with alkaline ferricyanide, but gave the corresponding 2-quinolones 153 after Jones oxidation (82AP470). 

A number of furoquinoline alkaloids are available by taking advantage of in-between metalation of 2,4-dimethoxy quinoline derivatives, as established in model studies (Scheme 103). To illustrate, the trimethoxyquino-line 571, upon metalation and ethylene oxide quench, afforded the carbinol 572 which, upon mild hydrolysis, furnished the alkaloid dihydro-y-fagarine (573) together with the quinolone 574 (Scheme 172) (71T1351). 

Anodic cyclization of thiocarboxamides to 1,3-thiazoles is in certain cases a superior method compared to the chemical oxidation as usually performed, using an alkaline solution of potassium hexacyanoferrate(UI). Thus anodic oxidation of 3-anilinothiocarbonyl-4-hydroxycoumarin (110a X = O) and 3-anilinothiocarbonyl-4-hydroxy-2-quinolone (110b) yielded the corresponding 1,3-thiazole derivatives 111a and 111b, respectively. Chemical oxidation... 

Quinolines have also been prepared on insoluble supports by cyclocondensation reactions and by intramolecular aromatic nucleophilic substitution (Table 15.26). Entry 10 in Table 15.26 is an example of a remarkable palladium-mediated cycloaddition of support-bound 2-iodoanilines to 1,4-dienes. Reduction of the nitro group of polystyrene-bound 2-nitro-l-(3-oxoalkyl)benzenes with SnCl2 (Entry 11, Table 15.26) leads to the formation of quinoline /Y-oxides. These intermediates can be reduced to the quinolines on solid phase by treatment with TiCl3. 4-Quinolones have been prepared by thermolysis of resin-bound 2-(arylamino)methylenemalonic esters [311]. 

Hydrogen cyanide can also be added to 2-nitrobenzylidine derivatives, such as 299, to give 296, and then cyclization to 298 takes place with ethanolic sodium carbonate. The more basic potassium cyanide or hydroxide, however, converts 2% into the quinolone 300 (72CRV627). Both nitriles 301 and 302 with potassium cyanide give the indole 304 via the common intermediate 303. If piperidine is added, 2-amino-4-cyano-3-phenylquinoline 1-oxide is the main product (60JCS3466). The indole 305 has been obtained similarly from 306 [70JCS(C)1916],... 

Spanish workers have recently described a rapid method for the construction of pyridoacridines which could be of value for the synthesis of a range of cytotoxic pyridoacridine alkaloids. Thus, treatment of MEM-protected 4-quinolone 1 with 3 equivalents of LDA in THF, first at -78°C then with stirring at room temperature, followed by addition of 1 equivalent of methyl 3-formyl-2-pyridinecarboxylate gave, after quench with aqueous ammonium chloride and chromatography, a mixture of the tetracycles 2 (15%) and 3 (20%). Oxidation of either 2 or 3, or a mixture of 2... 

Oxidation of the triethyl derivative with KMn04 yielded the known iso-quinolone 4 and the diacid 9, which was converted to 10 with CH2N2. Irradiation of the singlet aromatic protons adjacent to the methoxys in 4 and 10 showed... 

A new approach to the synthesis of 4-alkoxy-l-methyl-2-quinolones has been described (Scheme 3).18 Irradiation of 4-alkoxy-2-methylquinoline 1-oxides (12) (prepared from 2-methyl-4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide) results in photo-rearrangement to give the 2-quinolones (13) as major products a mechanism (Scheme 3) has been proposed. The alkaloids (13 R = Me) and ravenine (13 R = CH2CH=CMe2), which have been synthesized by other means, were prepared in this way. 

The reduction of 2, either catalytically or with zinc in acetic acid, leads to 3-amino-4-hydroxy-2-quinolone 20 [72TH000], These amino compounds are rather unstable they dimerize with loss of ammonia to "bis-amines", which in turn are readily oxidized to dyes similar to those obtained from ninhydrin and primary amines [68M1205] [68M1543], The amino derivatives 20 are therefore conveniently converted into 0,N-diacetyl derivatives, the N-acetyl derivative 21, or its dehydrated form, the oxazolo derivative 22 [95MI000], The variety of biological activity of oxazolo-quinolines of type 22 has been detected only in recent years [94JHC1647],...
