Nitro-Methyl Redox Coupling: Efficient Approach to 2-Hetarylbenzothiazoles from 2-Halonitroarene, Methylhetarene, and Elemental Sulfur
摘要:
A simple, straightforward, and atom economic approach to 2-hetarylbenzothiazoles starting from 2-halonitroarene, methylhetarene, and elemental sulfur under mild conditions is described. The method is highlighted by the direct redox nitro-methyl reaction for carbon-nitrogen bond formation without an added oxidizing or reducing agent.
Benzoxazoles, benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles having substituents on the azole and benzene nuclei were synthesized evaluated for antifungal, insecticidal and herbicidal activities. It was found that benzimidazoles tended to exhibit antifungal activity while benzothiazoles tended to show herbicidal activity. Chloro, trifluoromethyl, methoxy and ethoxy groups at the 5 position were potent substituents, and the 2-pyridyl group at the 2 position is a common structural unit. Among several active derivatives, 7-chloro-2-(2-pyridyl) benzimidazole and 2-(2-pyridyl)-5-trifluoromethylbenzothiazole exhibited significant activity against Panonycus citri.

A class of 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine derivatives, substituted in the 4-position by a fused bicyclic heteroaromatic moiety and in the 1-position by an optionally substituted benzyl moiety, are ligands for dopamine receptor subtypes within the body, in particular the D.sub.4 subtype, and are therefore useful in the treatment and/or prevention of disorders of the dopamine system, in particular schizophrenia or depression.
