Abstract
The unreported 2-[E-3-(N,N-dimethylamino)acryloyl]-3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole 3 was prepared via the reaction of 2-acetyl-3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole 2 with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMF-DMA). Enaminone 3 underwent regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrilimines 5a-f, to afford the corresponding pyrazoles 7a-f. The reaction of 7a,d,g with hydrazine hydrate, afforded the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazines 8a-c, respectively. Enaminone 3 also reacted with a hydrazines, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, 5-aminopyrazole 11, 6-aminothiouracil 15 and hippuric acid 22. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral data and elemental analyses.Enaminones are poly-dentate reagents that have been utilized extensively in this decade as building blocks in organic synthesis.1-9 Furthermore, many enaminones were found to exhibit several biological activities as antitumor, antibacterial and anticonvulsant agents.10,11
On the other hand, imidazoles possess important biological, pharmacological and therapeutic activities,12,13 where midazoles are present in compounds that have antiasthmatic,16 anti-inflammatory,17 antiulcerative,18 antithrombotic,19 fungicidal20 and herbicidal activities.21 Furthermore, some imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles were active against various cancer cell lines.22 Much interest has also been focused on the chemistry and anticonvulsant, analgesic,23 antibacterial24 and antisecretory25 activities displayed by compounds incorporating this heterocyclic system. Moreover, this system is similar in to Levamisole, a well-known immunomodulator.26 In continuation of our recent work aiming at the synthesis of a variety of heterocyclic ring systems with remarkable biological importance,27-39 in the present paper we planed to incorporate the imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole moiety with the title derivatives to combine the benefits of their effects to give a compact structure with expected biological activity.
In the course of our investigation, we have found that the 2-[E-3-(N,N-dimethylamino)acryloyl]-3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole (3) is an excellent building block for the synthesis of a variety of heterocyclic ring systems. The enaminone derivative 3 was obtained from the reaction of 2-acetyl-3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole (2)40 with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMF-DMA) (Scheme 1). The structure of compound 3 was confirmed by its elemental analysis and spectral data. For example, the 1H NMR spectrum revealed two doublet signals at δ 5.35, 7.76 ppm with coupling constant, J = 12.5 Hz assignable to olefinic protons (CH=CH) in E-configuration41-43 besides two singlet signals of the dimethylamino group at δ 2.89 and 3.16 ppm.
Treatment of the enaminone 3 with nitrilimines 5a-m, [liberated in situ from the corresponding hydrazonyl halides 4a-m, respectively, with triethylamine in refluxing toluene], it afforded the 3,4-disubstituted-1H-pyrazoles 7a-m, respectively (Schemes 2). The latter reaction products were assumed to be formed via initial 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the nitrilimines 5a-m to the activated double bond in compound 3 to afford the non-isolable cycloadducts 6a-m which undergoes loss of dimethylamine yielding the final pyrazole derivatives 7a-m.44-46
The 1H NMR spectra of the isolated products 7a-m revealed, in each case a singlet signal in the region of 8.40-8.72 ppm which indicates the presence of the pyrazole H-5 rather than H-4. This conclusion was further confirmed chemically by the reaction compounds 7a,d,g with hydrazine hydrate, to afford pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazines 8a-c, respectively (Scheme 2).
Treatment of enaminone 3 with N-nucleophile such as hydrazine hydrate and phenylhydrazine in absolute ethanol under reflux afforded pyrazoles 9a and 9b, respectively. The structures of the products were substantiated by the 1H NMR spectra which displayed new pair of doublets at δ 6.53 and 7.85 ppm with J = 7.5 Hz corresponding to pyrazole protons at positions 4 and 5, respectively. The products were formed via initial addition of the amino group in hydrazine to the enaminone double bond, followed by elimination of dimethylamine and water molecules to give the final isolable products 9a,b as previously mentioned47 (Scheme 3).
Similarly, enaminone 3 reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in refluxing absolute ethanol in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate to yield isoxazole 10. It is thus assumed that, the product 10 was formed via initial condensation of amino group of hydroxylamine with carbonyl group of enaminone 3 followed by elimination of dimethylamine (Scheme 3). Structure 10 was assigned for the reaction products on the basis of the 1H NMR spectral data in which a resonance for H-4 and H-5 of isoxazole appeared typically at δ 6.68 and 8.45 ppm, respectively.48
The behavior of compound 3 towards aminopyrazole derivative 11 as potential precursors for the interesting biologically active pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines49 was also investigated. Thus, when the enaminone 3 was treated with 5- amino-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazole 11 in refluxing acetic acid, it afforded 3-methyl-5,6-diphenyl-2-(2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl)imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole (13) (Scheme 3). The structure of the latter compound was established on the basis of its elemental analysis and spectral data which exclude the other possible structure 14 (see Experimental).
We have also investigated the reaction of enaminone 3 with 6-amino-2-thioxo-(1H)-pyrimidin-4-one (14) which produced 2,3-dihydro-5-(1-naphthalenyl)-2-thioxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(1H)-one (17) or the isomeric structure 18 (Scheme 3). The 1H NMR spectrum of the latter reaction product revealed a doublet signal at δ 8.30 ppm assigned to a pyridine H-2 proton and not a pyridine H-4 proton.49 which is consistent with isomeric structure 17. In addition, according to literature reports the reaction of heterocyclic amines to the double bond of the enaminone occurs with concurrent elimination of dimethylamine rather than condensation of a water molecule.50,51 On the basis of these findings, structure of 18 was discarded and the product isolated from the studied reaction was assigned structure 17.
Next, treatment of the enaminone 3 with hippuric acid 19 in refluxing acetic anhydride led to the formation of a product that was assigned the N-(6-(3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-2-yl)-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)benzamide (22).52 This structure of the latter compound was confirmed on the basis of its elemental analysis and spectral data (see Experimental). Compound 22 is assumed to be formed via the reaction of the intermediate oxazolone 20 which is formed in situ with the enaminone 3, yielding the non-isolable intermediate 21, that further rearranges into the pyranone 22 (Scheme 4).

All melting points were measured on a Gallenkamp melting point apparatus. The infrared spectra were recorded in potassium bromide disks on a Pye Unicam SP 3300 and Shimadzu FT IR 8101 PC infrared spectrophotometers. The NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Mercury VX-300 NMR spectrometer. 1H NMR and 13C NMR (300 MHz) were run in deuterated dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO-d6). Chemical shifts were related to that of the solvent. Mass spectra were recorded on a Shimadzu GCMS-QP 1000 EX mass spectrometer at 70 e.V. Elemental analyses were carried out at the Microanalytical Center of Cairo University, Giza, Egypt. 2-Acetyl-3-methyl-5,6-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole (2),40 hippuric acid (19)53 and hydrazonoyl halides 4a-m54-57 were prepared following the procedures reported in the literature.
