Synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles containing an allomaltol moiety from substituted pyrano[2,3-d]isoxazolones via base-promoted Boulton-Katritzky rearrangement.

For the first time, the interaction of aroyl containing pyrano[2,3-d]isoxazolone derivatives with various hydrazines was studied. It was shown that the considered process includes formation of corresponding hydrazones followed by Boulton-Katritzky rearrangement. As a result, the general method for the synthesis of substituted 1,2,3-triazoles bearing an allomaltol fragment was elaborated. The suggested approach can be applied to various aromatic and heterocyclic hydrazines. At the same time for unsubstituted hydrazine the Boulton-Katritzky recyclization is not implemented. In this case the opening of the pyranone ring was observed leading to pyrazolylisoxazole derivatives. Both types of aforementioned structures were proved by X-ray analysis.

Synthesis of substituted 8H-benzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolin-8-ones via photochemical 6π-electrocyclization of pyrimidines containing an allomaltol fragment.

For the first time, we elaborated a method for the synthesis of pyrimidines containing an allomaltol unit. The suggested approach is based on the reaction of 2-(1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxo-3-arylprop-1-en-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ones with cyanamide. The photochemical behavior of the obtained pyrimidines was investigated. It was shown that for the hydroxy derivatives the main pathway of phototransformation is a 6π-electrocyclization of the 1,3,5-hexatriene system and subsequent [1,9]-H sigmatropic shift leading to dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines. At the same time, for methylated analogues the photoreaction proceeds in two directions resulting in the formation of a mixture of the corresponding dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines and polyaromatic products. The obtained dihydro derivatives are stable compounds and do not undergo aromatization upon further UV irradiation. The structures of two of the dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Based on the performed studies, a two-stage telescopic method for the synthesis of polyaromatic benzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines including the initial photocyclization of the starting pyrimidines and the final dehydration was proposed.
