Chemoselective Alkylation of 3- and 4-(5-Amino-4-hetaryl-2,3-dihydro-3-oxopyrrol-1-yl)benzoic Acids
摘要:
Alkylation of 3- and 4-(5-amino-4-hetaryl-2,3-dihydro-3-oxopyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acids with phenacyl bromides or chloroacetanilides in DMF in the presence of triethylamine occurs at the carboxy group with high selectivity and yields the corresponding phenacyl and arylcarbamoylmethyl esters. The initial pyrrolyl-benzoic acids were synthesized by reaction of 3- and 4-aminobenzoic acids with 4-chloro-2-hetaryl-3-oxo-butyronitriles.
Reactions of 2-(4-aryl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-3-oxo-4-chlorobutyronitriles with primary aromatic amines result in nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom by amino group, followed by intramolecular addition of the secondary amino group to the cyano group. The products are 5-amino-1-aryl-4-(4-aryl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-3-ones which are structurally related to the known antiischemic drugs.
