    1.1 INTRODUCTION

    Fused heterocyclic systems including a pyrimidine ring, in particular

    triazolopyrimidines, can be regarded as synthetic analogues of natural compounds,

    therefore, they attract interest as potential physiologically active substances. 1,2,4-

    triazolo[1,5-a] pyrimidines (TPs), a subtype of purine analogs, have been widely

    investigated and identified to possess multifaceted pharmacological properties,

    including antihypertensive, cardiac stimulant, antimalarial, antifungal, anti-HBV,

    antimicrobial and anticancer activities.1,2 In addition, triazolopyrimidines are

    versatile ligands and their coordination compounds can be considered as model

    systems for metal-ligand interactions observed in biological systems.3,4

    The most widely known triazolopyrimidine derivative is the simple

    molecule of Trapidil (1), which acts as a platelet-derived growth factor antagonist

    and as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor.5

    Cevipabulin (2) and its analogs, a class of triazolopyrimidine, were proved

    to be potent anticancer agents with a unique mechanism of action in promoting

    tubulin polymerization reported by Beyer et. al.,6

    2 The triazolopyrimidine hetero bicycle constitutes a well established

    scaffold in crop protection chemistry. For instance, the herbicide family of

    [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine sulfonanilides (3) and (4) are potent inhibitors of

    acetohydroxy acid synthase (AHAS).7,8

    4 Similarly, BAS6009 (5) is a new class of fungicides active against a broad

    range of different plant diseases. Such compounds, which were discovered by

    Shell in the early 1990s, have now been identified as promoters of tubulin

    polymerization with a paclitaxel like mode of action.

    Chloroethyl derivatives (N-substituted) and some of their metabolites show

    great potential as effective chemotherapeutic alkylating agents for the

    chemotherapy of several types of cancers including glioma, lymphoma,

    melanoma, myeloma, and small cell lung cancers.15-18 It was discovered that

    introduction of a 2-chloroethyl chain on the nitrogen atom bearing the nitroso

    group of nitrosoureas and nitrosocarbamate derivatives led to much increased

    anticancer activity. These chloroethyl derivatives were lipophilic enough to cross

    the blood-brain barrier and therefore were useful in the treatment of brain tumors.

    Most nitrosoureas contain one chloroethyl chain on the nitrosated nitrogen, which

    allows them to act as DNA cross-linking agents. It was evident that the unusual

    antitumor activity of certain mono functional nitrogen mustards was determined

    by the chemical structure of the heterocyclic nucleus that was attached through a

    side chain to the mono -2- chloro ethyl amino group.19

    Fabio Carraro et. al.,20 have reported a series of pyrazolo[3,4-d]-pyrimidine

    derivatives (18-19) having substituted chloroethyl side chain as potent

    Triazolo [4,3-c] pyrimidines and triazolo[l,5-c]pyrimidines were generally

    prepared by cyclization of appropriate pyrimidine derivatives, have been reported

    in the literature. The most common procedure consisted of cyclization of 4-

    hydrazinopyrimidines with various reagents such as orthoesters,22 cyanogen

    chloride,23 carbon disulfide,24 isothiocyanates,25 and ethyl chloroformate.26 These

    cyclizations led either to [4,3-c] isomers or directly to rearranged [1,5-c]

    derivatives. A Dimroth rearrangement allowed the preparation of the

    corresponding [1,5-c] derivatives.

    Shridhar et. al.,27 have reported the synthesis of triazolopyrimidine by the

    reaction of imidoformate intermediate with acid hydrazide.

    1.2 PRESENT WORK The work carried out during the present investigation deals with the

    synthesis of novel nitrogen bridgehead fused tricyclic pyrazolo[4,3-

    e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-5-amines and bicyclic pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

    derivatives. A multi step synthetic protocol was employed to accomplish the

    synthesis of title compounds starting from 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-

    pyrazole-4-carbonitrile precursor. The reaction sequence employed for the

    synthesis of title compounds is outlined in the following schemes (1-4) and

    explained briefly.

    The required starting material 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-

    carbonitrile (I) was prepared by the reaction of 2-(ethoxymethylene)malononitrile

    with 2-hydroxyethyl hydrazine followed by chlorination of hydroxyl group using

    thionyl chloride in good yield (Scheme 1).

    Two different routes A & B were designed for the synthesis of

    pyrazolo[4,3-e] [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-5-amines. Routes A & B differ in

    the formation of pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine intermediate.

    Route A: In this route (Scheme 2), pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]

    pyrimidines (III) were prepared by the reaction of imidoformate II with various

    substituted acid hydrazides under sealed-tube condition. Treatment of III with

    hydrochloric acid at reflux temperature induced pyrimidine ring opening to furnish

    the hydrolyzed intermediates, 5-amino-4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)pyrazoles (IV)

    which were subsequently cyclised along with introduction of NH2 group at C-5

    position of pyrimidine ring by the reaction with cynogen bromide to afford title

    compounds V.

    intermediated. Imidoformate II was treated with hydrazine hydrate to afford

    amino-imine intermediate which in turn on condensation with aldehydes gave

    pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines (III). Further formation of title

    compounds proceeds in similar fashion to route A.

    was prepared (Scheme 4). Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ones (VI) were prepared

    from I on refluxing with formic acid and acetic acid. pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-

    directly from I on treatment with formamide.

    1.3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (I) served as starting

    material for the synthesis of title compounds was prepared by the known literature

    procedure. Formation of 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (I)

    was characterized by the presence of band at 2220 cm-1 due to cyano group and N-

    H stretching bands at 3363 and 3214 cm-1 in their IR spectrum. Further it was also

    supported by the presence of D2O exchangeable broad singlet at 6.68 ppm due to -

    NH2 group and singlet at 7.58 ppm for C3-H of pyrazole ring in 1H NMR

    spectrum.

    The formation of N1 substituted regio isomer 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-

    1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (I) over the formation N2 substituted regio isomer 3-

    amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (Ib) was confirmed by its

    single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.

    Imidoformate II was prepared in excellent yield by treating I with triethyl

    orthoformate in refluxing toluene. Transformation of 5-amino-1-(2-chloroethyl)-

    1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (I) to corresponding imidoformate II was established

    by the absence of N-H in IR and the presence of a triplet at 1.46 and quartet at 4.31

    ppm corresponding to protons of the ethoxy group and peak around 8.29 ppm due

    to -N=CH in the 1H NMR spectrum along with the other protons resonated in the

    expected region.

    Imidoformate II possesses two reactive sites, a cyano group and an imidic

    carbon. These imidoformate known to react with compounds containing -NH2.

    route A and B.

    Imidoformate II was made to reacts with appropriate acid hydrazide under

    toluene reflux in the presence of few drops of acetic acid to give desired fused

    tricyclic triazolopyrimidines. Plausible pathway involves two successive

    nucleophilic additions of -NH2 group on the imidic carbon and on the cyano

    function followed by dehydrocyclisation to give triazolopyrimidines (Scheme 2).

    Mechanism for formation of triazolpyrimidine (III)

    The structures of these compounds were ascertained by their analytical and

    spectral data. The IR spectra showed the absence of nitrile band at 2220 cm-l. 1H

    NMR spectra displayed a singlet in the range of 9.00 to 9.70 ppm corresponding to

    C5-H of pyrimidine ring, further presence of protons in aromatic region due to R

    substituent confirms the substitution at 3 position of triazole ring in III.

    The title compounds pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-5-

    amines (V) were prepared from pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c] pyrimidines

    (III) via an interesting ring opening and recyclization process of pyrimidine ring.

    Treatment of III(a-u) with hydrochloric acid at reflux temperature induced

    pyrimidine ring opening to furnish the hydrolyzed intermediates, 5-amino-4-(1H-

    1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)pyrazoles (IVa-u). In IR spectra of IV the νN-H is observed in the

    region 3413, 3328 and 3177 cm-1, due to –NH2 and –NH functional groups

    respectively. In 1H NMR, presence of two broad D2O exchangeable singlets

    around 6.0 and 14.0 ppm corresponding to –NH2 and –NH respectively confirms

    the formation of ring opening product IV.

    The structures of cyclized products V were ascertained by the absence of

    absorption bands due to –NH group in the IR spectra and appearance of broad D2O

    exchangeable singlet around 8.0 ppm assigned for –NH2 group in 1H NMR

    spectra.

    Reaction of imidoformate II with hydrazine hydrate (Scheme 3) afforded

    the amino-imino intermediate which was characterized by the presence of IR

    bands of amino and imino functions. 1H NMR spectrum shows D2O exchangeable

    singlets at 4.87 and 9.15 ppm assigned to amino and imino groups respectively

    and the C5-H of pyrimidine resonated at 8.34 ppm as singlet along with other

    expected signals.

    Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ones (VI) were prepared from I (Scheme 4) on

    refluxing with formic acid and acetic acid. The structures of VI were ascertained

    by the presence of band at 1686 cm-1 in IR spectra and a D2O exchangeable broad

    singlet at 12.23 ppm for -NH in the 1H NMR spectra. The reaction of formates II

    with ethanolic ammonia followed by the cyclization of intermediate with sodium

    ethoxide in dimethyl formamide resulted in the formation of pyrazolo[3,4-d]

    pyrimidin-4-amine (VII). Formation of the product was established by the

    presence of characteristic band at 3321, 3228 cm-1 due to amino group in IR

    spectrum. The 1H NMR spectrum showed the presence of D2O exchangeable

    broad singlet at 5.4 ppm due to -NH2 group. Alternatively pyrazolo[3,4-d]

    pyrimidin-4-amine (VII) was also prepared directly from the 5-amino-1-(2-

    chloroethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (I) by reacting with formamide.

    These compounds were further confirmed by their 13C NMR and mass spectral

    data. (See figure 1.5 to 1.12 for all spectra)

    Intermolecular Features

    In the title compound, the pyrazole ring is substituted with amino,

    carbonitrile and the 2-chloro-ethyl groups. The N(1)-N(2) and C(5)-N(1) bond

    lengths in the pyrazole ring are shorter{1.375(2)Å and 1.349(1)Å} than the

    distance characteristics of a single N-N bond (1.45 Å) and C-N(1.45 Å). The cis

    orientation of 2-chloro-ethyl group with respect to the C5-N1 bond is described by

    the torsion angle C(5)-N(1)-C(2)-C(1) [-107.795(4)°]. The N(1) atom of the

    pyrazole ring is in the planar trigonal configuration. The molecular structure of the

    title compound is stabilized by intermolecular N-H…N and C-H…Cl interactions.

    There are two types of N-H…N intermolecular interactions (Table 1.1); N4-

    H4B…N3 hydrogen bond forms centrosymmetric head-to-head dimers about

    inversion centres corresponding to graph set R22(12) motif23. While the N4-

    H4A…N2 hydrogen bonds generate chains of molecules in a zigzag pattern along

    the crystallographic ‘a’ axis.

    numbering scheme. Displacement ellipsoids are drawn at the 50%

    probability level. H atoms are presented as small spheres of arbitrary

    radius.

    Intermolecular Features

    In the title compound (Fig. 1.4(a)), the fused pyrazolopyrimidine ring is

    substituted with 2-chloro-ethyl group on one side and the oxo group on the other

    side. The pyrazolopyrimidine ring is planar with the maximum deviation from the

    mean statistical plane being 0.0115 (14) Å for C3. The cis orientation of 2-chloro-

    ethyl group with respect to the C2-N2 bond is described by the torsion angle N2-

    C2-N3-C3, -2.204 (4)°.

    The crystal structure is stabilized by some interesting features that

    comprise of intermolecular N-H···O, C-H···O, C-H···N and C-H···Cl interactions

    (Fig. 1.4(b) and Table 1.8). The C-H···O and the N-H···O interactions result in

    centrosymmetric head-to-head dimers corresponding to the graph set R22(10) and

    R22(8) motif. There are two types of C-H···N interactions, one of which forms a

    helix, the other forms sheets along the crystallographic b-axis. The C-H···Cl

    intermolecular interaction result in one dimensional molecular chain along b-axis.

    The bond lengths and bond angles in the title molecule agree very well with the

    corresponding bond distances and bond angles reported in a closely related

    compound.
