Reaction of indole-2-carbonyl isothiocyanate (1) with sodium methanethiolate afforded 1-thioxo-1H-imidazo[1,5-a]indol-3(2H)-one (3). Its methylation with methyl iodide in the presence of lithium hydride in dimethylformamide, or potassium carbonate in acetone resulted in the formation of corresponding S- and N-methyl derivatives 4 and 5. N-(Indole-2-carbonyl)thiocarbamates and N-(indole-2-carbonyl)thioureas prepared by treatment of isothiocyanate 1 with corresponding nucleophilic reagents were S-methylated with methyl iodide in acetone in the presence of potassium carbonate. The obtained N-(indole- 2-carbonyl) substituted thiocarbonimidates 15, 16 and isothioureas 17-20 afforded by treatment with lithium hydride in dimethylformamide the derivatives of imidazo[1,5-a]- indol-3-one 23-28 in 49-87% yields. Antifungal activity of the prepared compounds has been examined, using the fungus Bipolaris leersiae. 1-Methylsulfanyl-3H-imidazo-[1,5-a]- indol-3-one (4) exhibited the highest antifungal activity.
吲哚-2-羰基异硫氰酸酯(1)与甲硫醇钠反应生成1-硫代-1H-咪唑[1,5-a]吲哚-3(2H)-酮(3)。在二甲基甲酰胺中加入氢化锂或在丙酮中加入碳酸钾,甲基化反应使其形成相应的S-甲基和N-甲基衍生物4和5。通过用相应的亲核试剂处理异硫氰酸酯1,制备了吲哚-2-羰基硫脲酸酯和吲哚-2-羰基硫脲,用碳酸钾在丙酮中进行S-甲基化反应。用氢化锂在二甲基甲酰胺中处理得到N-(吲哚-2-羰基)取代硫氨酸酯15、16和异硫脲酸酯17-20,产率为49-87%。使用真菌Bipolaris leersiae测试了所制备化合物的抗真菌活性。1-甲基硫基-3H-咪唑[1,5-a]吲哚-3-酮(4)表现出最高的抗真菌活性。
