Synthesis of 2,4,5-Trisubstituted Thiazoles via Lawesson’s Reagent-Mediated Chemoselective Thionation–Cyclization of Functionalized Enamides
An
efficient route to 2-phenyl/(2-thienyl)-5-(het)Âaryl/(methylthio)-4-functionalized
thiazoles via one-step chemoselective thionation–cyclization
of highly functionalized enamides mediated by Lawesson’s reagent
is reported. These enamide precursors are obtained by nucleophilic
ring-opening of 2-phenyl/(2-thienyl)-4-[bisÂ(methylthio)/(methylthio)Â(het)Âarylmethylene]-5-oxazolones
with alkoxides and a variety of primary aromatic/aliphatic amines
or amino acid esters, leading to the introduction of an ester, an
N-substituted carboxamide, or a peptide functionality in the 4-position
of the product thiazoles

One-Pot Synthesis of 2,4,5-Trisubstituted Imidazoles via [2 + 2 + 1] Cycloannulation of 1,3-Bishet(aryl)-monothio-1,3-diketones, α‑Substituted Methylamines and Sodium Nitrite through α‑Nitrosation of Enaminones
An
efficient one-pot synthesis of a series of diversely functionalized
trisubstituted 4(5)ÂhetÂ(aroyl)-2,5(4)-hetÂ(aryl)/alkylimidazoles from
readily available 1,3-bishetÂ(aryl)Âmonothio-1,3-diketones has been
reported. This novel sequential one-pot, three step protocol, wherein
three new carbon nitrogen bonds are formed in contiguous fashion,
involves in situ generation of enaminones by reaction of monothio-1,3-diketones
with α-substituted methylamines, followed by their α-nitrosation
with sodium nitrite and subsequent base mediated intramolecular heterocyclization
of the resulting α-hydroxyiminoimines to trisubstituted imidazoles
in high yields under mild conditions. These newly prepared 4(5)-hetÂ(aroyl)-5(4)-hetÂ(aryl)/alkylimidazoles
are shown to exist as tautomeric mixture, however, their subsequent
alkylation with methyl iodide in the presence of potassium carbonate
affords 1-<i>N</i>-methy-2,5-bishetÂ(aryl)-4-hetÂ(aroyl)Âimidazoles
in highly regioselective fashion in most of the cases. Synthesis of
few 4(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,5(4)-substituted imidazoles, which are
known to be good coordinating ligands, has also been reported. A probable
mechanism for the formation of these imidazoles from hydroxyiminoimine
intermediates has also been suggested
Sequential One-Pot Synthesis of Tri- and Tetrasubstituted Thiophenes and Fluorescent Push–Pull Thiophene Acrylates Involving (Het)aryl Dithioesters as Thiocarbonyl Precursors
An efficient, one-pot three component
synthesis of highly functionalized
tri- and tetrasubstituted thiophenes has been reported involving (het)Âaryl
dithioesters as thiocarbonyl precursors. Thus, sequential base mediated
condensation of readily available (het)Âaryl active methylene ketones
with (het)Âaryl dithioesters followed by <i>S</i>-alkylation
of the resulting enethiolate salts with activated halomethylene compounds
and concurrent intramolecular aldol-type condensation of <i>S</i>-alkylated compounds affords substituted thiophenes in excellent
yields. The methodology has also been extended for the synthesis of
highly fluorescent push–pull substituted thiophene-5-acrylates
by using bromocrotonate as the activated methylene alkylating agent
Synthesis of N‑Functionalized/NH-Multisubstituted Indoles, Thienopyrroles, Pyrroloindoles, and Pyrazolopyrroles via Sequential One-Pot Base-Mediated and Copper-Catalyzed Inter- and Intramolecular Amination of 2‑[2-Bromo(het)aryl]-3-(het)aryl-3-(methylthio)acrylonitriles
A novel,
efficient route to substituted 1-<i>N</i>-(het)Âaryl/NH-2-(het)Âaryl-3-cyanoindoles
and related pyrrolo-fused heterocycles such as thienopyrroles, pyrroloindoles,
and pyrazolopyrroles has been reported. The overall protocol involves
sequential cycloamination of readily available 2-[2-bromoÂ(het)Âaryl]-3-(het)Âaryl-3-(methylthio)Âacrylonitrile
precursors with primary amines or amides via two key C–N bond-forming
processes, one base-mediated intermolecular and the other Cu-catalyzed
intramolecular arylamination leading to N(1)–C(2) and N(1)–CÂ(7a)
bond formation, respectively, in a two-step one-pot procedure
