An expeditious and green synthesis of new enaminones and study their chemical reactivity toward some different amines and binucleophiles under environmentally friendly conditions

AbstractThe condensation reaction of 3-heteroaromatic-3-oxopropanenitriles 3, 4 and 7 with dimethylformamide–dimethylacetal (DMF–DMA) gave the corresponding enaminones 8, 9 and 10, respectively. Nucleophilic substitution of 8 and 9 with different amines resulted in a new derivatives of enaminones 11–18. The reactivity of enaminones 8 and 9 toward some nitrogen nucleophiles was investigated with a view to synthesize new heterocyclic systems. Thus, treatment of compounds 8 and 9 with phenylhydrazine afforded the pyrazole derivatives 19 and 20, respectively. On the other hand, reacting 8 and 9 with guanidine gave the pyrimidines 21 and 22, respectively. Treatment of compound 9 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride afforded the aminoisoxazoles 23. The foregoing reactions were carried out with conventional heating and under green conditions [ultrasound (US) irradiations or ionic liquids (ILs)] and a comparative study was employed. All the new structures are fully characterized

First Synthesis and Isolation of the E- and Z-Isomers of Some New Schiff Bases. Reactions of 6-Azido-5-Formyl-2-Pyridone with Aromatic Amines

Some novel Schiff bases have been prepared by reacting 6-azido-5-formyl-2-pyridone 1 with a series of aromatic amines 2a-f. 5-Arylaminomethylene-6-(E)-aryliminopyridones3a-e were obtained by reaction of 1 with 2a-e at room temperature,whereas with 2f, the 6-azido-5-naphthalen-2-yl-iminomethylpyridone derivative 4 wasformed. On the other hand, heating 1 with 2a-d at 140-150°C yielded two sets of isomericproducts, (E)-3a-d and (Z)-5a-d. Refluxing compounds (Z)-3a,c with hydroxyl-amine inmethanol gave the corresponding hydroxyliminopyridones 8a,c. Heating of (E)-3a-d withexcess POCl3 at reflux did not give the expected tricyclic compound 9, but rather theisomeric products (Z)-5a-d were obtained. The structures of all these products have beencharacterized using IR and 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy

Refluxing compounds (Z)-3a,c with hydroxyl-amine in methanol gave the corresponding hydroxyliminopyridones 8a,c. Heating of (E)-3a-d with excess POCl3 at reflux did not give the expected tricyclic compound 9, but rather the isomeric products (Z)-5a-d were obtained. The structures of all these products have been characterized using IR and 1 H- and 13 C-NMR spectroscopy
