Multicomponent Facile Synthesis of Highly Substituted [1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-a] Pyrimidines

The preparation of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines catalyzed by Schiff base zinc(ii) complex supported on magnetite nanoparticles under mild conditions

Nano-[CuFe2O4@SiO2/propyl-1-(O-vanillinaldimine)][ZnCl2] was prepared by placing a Schiff base zinc(ii) complex on a magnetite core and fully characterized by various analyses such as FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDAX, SEM-coupled EDX, TGA, VSM and TEM. The complexes supported on silica-coated magnetite copper ferrite nanoparticles were used as a reusable catalyst for the synthesis of 5-methyl-N,7-diphenyl-4,7-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a] pyrimidine-6-carboxamides resulting in 40% to 96% yield in the reactions of various aldehydes, acetoacetanilide, and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole at 60 °C under solvent-free conditions. The zinc complex can change its structure from tetrahedral to square planar and catalyze the reaction. Some products containing the benzyloxy moiety are new and have been reported for the first time.

Dihydroazolopyrimidines: Past, Present and Perspectives in Synthesis, Green Chemistry and Drug Discovery

Dihydroazolopyrimidines are an important class of heterocycles that are isosteric to natural purines and are therefore of great interest primarily as drug-like molecules. In contrast to the heteroaromatic analogs, synthetic approaches to these compounds were developed much later, and their chemical properties and biological activity have not been studied in detail until recently. In the review, different ways to build dihydroazolopyrimidine systems from different building blocks are described - via the initial formation of a partially hydrogenated pyrimidine ring or an azole ring, as well as a one-pot assembly of azole and azine fragments. Special attention is given to modern approaches: multicomponent reactions, green chemistry, and the use of non-classical activation methods. Information on the chemical properties of dihydroazolopyrimidines and the prospects for their use in the design of drugs of various profiles are also summarized in this review.

[1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine is an important heterocyclic scaffold known to have a wide range of pharmacological activities such as anticancer, antimicrobial, anti-tubercular, CB₂ cannabinoid agonists, feticide, and adenosine antagonists. Several clinical trials and marketed drugs such as Trapidil, Essramycin, Pyroxsulam, DSM-265, Flumetsulam, GNF-6702, and Cevipabulin indicate the potential of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine moiety with various functional groups in medicinal chemistry. Herein, we represent a concise report focusing on the synthetic strategies used for diversely substituted [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine analogs and their pharmacological applications. To the best of our knowledge, since 1980, we are the first to write a review on this emerging scaffold, which reveals the synthetic strategies, and pharmacological activities of differently substituted [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine with special emphasis on structure-activity relationship studies.

Green Synthesis of Benzoimidazopyrimidine, Benzimidazoloquinazolinone, Triazolopyrimidine and Triazoloquinazolinone Derivatives Catalyzed by Oxalic Acid Dihydrate

Abstract:

Benzoimidazopyrimidine, benzimidazoloquinazolinone, triazolopyrimidine, and triazoloquinazolinone derivatives were synthesized via a one-pot multi-component reaction in the presence of a catalytic amount of oxalic acid dihydrate. The reactions were performed in the mixture of EtOH:H2O or under solvent-free conditions as green media. The advantageous features of these methodologies are inexpensive starting materials and catalyst, high atom economy and good yields, and metal-free synthesis. Moreover, all the products were obtained by simple filtration, and no need for column chromatography or tedious separation procedures, which is very important in terms of reducing environmental pollutions.

α-Aminoazoles/azines: key reaction partners for multicomponent reactions

Aromatic α-aminoazaheterocycles are the focus of significant investigations and exploration by researchers owing to their key role in diverse biological and physiological processes. The existence of their derivatives in numerous drugs and alkaloids is due to their heterocyclic nitrogenous nature. Therefore, the synthesis of a structurally diverse range of their derivatives through simple and convenient methods represents a vital field of synthetic organic chemistry. Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) provide a platform to introduce desirable structure diversity and complexity into a molecule in a single operation with a significant reduction in the use of harmful organic waste, and hence have attracted particular attention as an excellent tool to access these derivatives. This review covers the advances made from 2010 to the beginning of 2020 in terms of the utilization of α-aminoazaheterocycles as synthetic precursors in MCRs.
