2. SYNTHESIS of β-DIKETONES

1. INTRODUCTION The importance of 1,3-diketones in synthetic organic chemistry is difficult to overestimate. Their accessibility, stability, and often unique properties make them promising for use in various fields of human activity. High reactivity of 1,3-diketones opens wide prospects for the design of a variety of organic compounds, including those structurally related to natural ones. Continuously growing interest in β-dicarbonyl compounds is observed among researchers working in various fields of medicinal chemistry and chemistry of metal complexes. Sol–gel syntheses with β-diketones afforded organic–inorganic hybrid materials used in gas sensors and molecular thermometers, as well as in the manufacture of optical fiber and lightconverting materials [1–5]. Over the past 10–15 years, not only selectivity parameters and overall yield of reaction products but also such factors as enhanced requirements to starting materials, reaction time, energy consumption, toxicity, etc., have acquired increasing significance in the assessment of the efficiency of chemical syntheses. 1,3-Diketones turned out to be excellent versatile intermediates in multicomponent reactions, in particular regio- and stereoselective, which is especially important in the synthesis of potentially biologically active compounds [6–9]. The present review consists of two parts and comprises data on the synthesis, chemical properties, and biological activity of 1,3-diketones, which have been published over the past 12 years after reviews [1, 2]. Deliberately, complexing properties of diketones are not considered here; relevant publications are so numerous that they should be the subject of a separate review.

Analysis of published data showed that currently, as well as in the past century, the main method for the synthesis of β-diketones is based on the Claisen condensation which has been known since 1887. It implies acylation of monocarbonyl compounds (most frequently, ketones) in the presence of catalysts favoring their enolization [1, 2]. Claisen condensations with dicarbonyl compounds (acetylacetone, benzoylacetone) are very few in number. In recent years, modifications of the Claisen reaction involved mainly selection of reagents (acylating agent, catalyst) and conditions to ensure reaction selectivity, high yield of diketones, easy isolation procedure, and experimental simplicity. Just these goals were set in all publications cited in the present review. Among procedures that are newly developed for the synthesis of β-diketones, those based on metal complex catalysis should be noted. 2.1. Syntheses of β-Diketones Based on the Claisen Condensation 2.1.1. Acylation of ketones. Acetophenone derivatives, including those containing functional groups and heterocyclic substituents in the benzene ring, were converted into β-diketones via acylation with aromatic carboxylic and pyridinemono- and -dicarboxylic acid esters under the classical Claisen conditions (with NaOR or NaNH 2 as catalyst) [10–14]. Bis-1,3-diketones were obtained from phthalic [10, 11] and pyridinedicarboxylic acid derivatives [13, 15]. A soft Lewis acid, magnesium bromide–diethyl ether complex, in the presence of ethyl(diisopropyl)amine catalyzed enolization and regioselective

C-acylation of ketones [16]. The reaction can be carried out without protection from atmospheric moisture. N-Acylbenzotriazoles and pentafluorophenyl carboxylate were the most efficient acylating agents (Scheme 1). The yields of dicarbonyl compounds 3 ranged from 50 to 99% [17 examples, including 12 β-oxo aldehydes (R2 = H)]. Benzotriazole derivatives ensured the best yield (90–99%), while the yield of compound 3 (R1 = CH2=CHCH2CH2, R2 = H, R3 = Ph) obtained from acetophenone and pentafluorophenyl ester 1b was the lowest (50%). The yield increased to 70% in analogous reaction with the corresponding benzotriazole derivative 1a. Regioselective C-acylation of ketones with acid chlorides in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane lithium salt in toluene was reported in [17]. The reaction was not accompanied by side self-condensation of the initial reactants and O-acylation, so that 1,3-diketones 3 formed in situ could be converted into pyrazole derivatives 4–8 (Scheme 2). The key step in this reaction is selective base-catalyzed formation of

intermediate A from ketone and acid chloride. When sodium or potassium salt was used instead of lithium hexamethyldisilazide, up to 20% of triketone B was formed and converted into symmetrical pyrazoles C [17] (Scheme 3). L-Proline efficiently catalyzed acylation of acetone with substituted and unsubstituted benzoyl, heteroarylcarbonyl, and α,β-unsaturated acyl cyanides [18]. Enamine D derived from acetone and L -proline is capable of reacting at the CO group of acylating agent E (Scheme 4). Several proline derivatives F–I were tested. It was found that replacement of the phenoxy group in F by hydroxy leads to complete loss of catalytic activity. The catalytic efficiency of F and G was similar to that of L-proline, while compounds H and I with bulky substituents showed lower catalytic activity. Elliot and Wordingham [19] were the first to use substituted lactams as acylating agents in the synthesis of β-diketones.

were used to acylate ketones 14a–14f [22] in THF at –78°C in the presence of LDA. As a result, 16 α,β-unsaturated diketones 15–18 were obtained. Despite numerous modifications of the Claisen condensation, in no case direct synthesis of β-diketones from acids and ketones was accomplished with simultaneous activation of the carbonyl and methylene components. We recently showed [23] that self-acylation of β-(4-R-phenyl)propionic acids (R = H, Br, 1-Ad) catalyzed by trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TfOH) in trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) provides a simple preparative method for the synthesis of β-diketones. Trifluoroacetic anhydride readily reacts with carboxylic acids to give mixed anhydrides, acyl trifluoroacetates, which are efficient acylating agents. Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid favors their enolization

and catalyzes self-acylation. Phenylacetic acid polymerizes under these conditions, while 3-phenylpropionic acid (19a) in TFAA/CH2Cl2 in the presence of 0.25 equiv of TfOH at room temperature was converted into 2-(3-phenylpropionyl)indan-1-one (21a, yield 51%). The yield of 21a increased to 75% in the presence of 0.5 equiv of TfOH. Obviously, compound 21a is formed via acylation of the initially formed intramolecular cyclization product, indan-1-one 20a, with 3-phenylpropionyl trifluoroacetate. Under analogous conditions (0.5 equiv of TfOH), 3-(4-bromophenyl)- and 3-[4-(adamantan-1-yl)phenylpropionic acids gave rise to 70% of 21b and 35% of 21c, respectively. 4-Phenylbutanoic acid (19d) was quantitatively converted into tetrahydronaphthalen-1-one 20d (Scheme 7).

paration of β-diketones has underlain one-pot synthesis of polycyclic systems containing pyrazole fragments (see Section 3.1) [23, 24]. The obtained results allowed us to presume that ketones can be directly subjected to acylation in the system TfOH–TFAA–CH2Cl2 [24]. The acylation of alkyl aryl ketones 22 (acetophenone, benzyl methyl ketone, indanone, tetralone, 2-acetylthiophene, 2-acetylbenzofuran) with acids 23 (R = Me, i-Pr, t-BuCH2, 1-AdCH2) gave β-diketones 24-30. In most cases, the reactant ratio 23–22–TfOH–TFA was 1 : 1 : 0.5 : 6. We thus synthesized 20 β-diketones (yield of 15 compounds 47–91%), including adamantane derivatives. Introduction of an adamantane fragment into organic molecules often endows them with new valuable properties (Scheme 8). The scope of this reaction was extended by acylation of ketones with functionally substituted carboxylic

acids. Glycine failed to react with ketones, whereas β-alanine (33) reacted with indan-1-one (31a), 1-tetralone (31b), and acetophenone (31c) in TFAA– TfOH–CH 2 Cl 2 to produce the corresponding N-trifluoroacetyl-β-aminodiketones 32. The best yields were obtained using 1.5 equiv of 33 and 1 equiv of TfOH. The hydrolysis of 32a and 32b was accompanied by intramolecular cyclization with formation of previously unknown heterocycles 34a and 34b (Scheme 9). The acylation of 31a with (diphenylphosphoryl)acetic acid (35) gave 51% of diketone 36. The reaction involved self-acylation of 35 even at room temperature, which significantly complicated the isolation of 36. When acid 35 was heated in CF3SO3H/TFA [24], followed by decarboxylation in aqueous medium, 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphoryl)propan-2-one (37) was obtained in 44% yield (Scheme 10). 3-(Trifluoroacetoxy)adamantan-1-yl-substituted diketones 39a–39c were

SHOKOVA et al. (20 min) with complete conversion of the initial trimethylsilyl ethers into the corresponding β-diketones. An efficient procedure for the synthesis of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [β-diketones and β-oxo(thioxo)esters] via mild and selective catalytic C-acylation of silyl enol ethers A, ketene silyl acetals and thioacetals B and C with acid chlorides 44–47 in the presence of pentafluoroanilinium trifluoromethanesulfonate was described in [29] [Scheme 13; in most cases, R3 = R4 = Me; in some cases, R 3 = H, R 4 = Alk (Me, Pr, Bu); R3 = Me or Ph, R4 = Et or OSiMe2Bu-t; R5 = Ph or Alk (Pr, i-Pr); R6X = MeO, PhS, C8H17S]. 2.1.3. Dicarbonyl compounds in the synthesis of β-diketones. Aryl and heteroaryl β-diketones were synthesized by reaction of the simplest dicarbonyl compounds (acetylacetone and benzoylacetone) with acylbenzotriazoles in the presence of sodium hydride,

synthesized by acylation of 31 with (3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)acetic acid (38a) (Scheme 11). In the synthesis of 39b, tetralone 31b was prepared in situ from 4-phenylbutanoic acid (19d). Trifluoroacetates 39a– 39c were hydrolyzed to hydroxy diketones 40a–40c. The acelation of 31a with adamantane-1,3-diyldi(acetic acid) (38b) gave bis-1,3-diketone 41. 2.1.2. Acylation of silyl enol ethers. Wiles et al. [25] reported regioselective acylation of silyl enol ethers with benzoyl fluoride and benzoyl cyanide in the presence of a catalytic amount of anhydrous tetrabutylammonium fluoroide. According to the authors, intermediate enolate does not react with a soft ammonium counterion but undergoes selective C-acylation. The procedure was subsequently modified for the synthesis of β-diketones by the microreactor technique [26–28] (Scheme 12). The reactions were very fast

followed by hydrolysis [30]. Initially, enolates derived from the diketones undergo C-acylation, and the subsequent in situ deacetylation in aqueous NH4Cl and NH4OH on heating yields a new unsymmetrical diketone. The mechanism of the reaction of acetylacetone with 1-benzoylbenzotriazole is shown in Scheme 14. The formation of symmetrical dibenzoylmethane as by-product indicates the occurrence of further reaction resulting in the replacement of both acetyl groups by benzoyl. Scheme 15 illustrates the reaction of acetylacetone with other 1-acylbenzotriazoles. Unsymmetrical diketones 48 (R 2 = Ph, R 3 = PhSCH2, furan-2-yl, thiophen-2-yl) were the major products (yield 61–62%) in the reactions of benzoylacetone with acylbenzotriazoles. The mechanism of formation of symmetrical diketones 48 (R2 = R3 = Ph, furan-2-yl; yield 15–17%) is shown in Scheme 16). It was presumed that acylbenzotriazoles can be used in the development of one-pot syntheses on the basis of the obtained β-diketones [30]. The acylation of thioesters with acylbenzotriazoles in the presence of magnesium bromide–diethyl ether complex and ethyl(diisopropyl)amine gave a series of β-keto thioesters 49, and one of these (R = t-Bu, R′ = Pr) was converted into unsymmetrical β-diketone 50 according to Fukuyama [31]. The authors believe that

this reaction is the first example of direct alkylation of β-keto thioesters (Scheme 17). Unsymmetrical 1,3-diketones were synthesized from ethyl 3-arylpropanoates activated by treatment with BF3 · Et2O [32]. Boron complexes 51 thus formed reacted with organolithium compounds to give the corresponding 1,3-diketones 52 as complexes with BF2. Complexes 52 can be readily converted into 1,3-diketones. Apart from 3-arylpropanoates, keto ester 53 was used as ester component [32]. Complexes 51 (R1 = Ph) and 54 reacted with trimethylsilylmethyllithium (Me3SiCH2Li) (instead of MeLi) at –78°C to afford methyl ketones 52 and 55 (R2 = Me) in 44 and 39% yield, respectively (Scheme 18). 2.2. Metal Complex Catalysis in the Synthesis of β-Diketones In recent years, syntheses of β-diketones catalyzed by metal complexes have attracted increased attention. As a rule, the final step of the catalytic process is the Claisen condensation or oxidation of the aldol condensation product. An advantageous feature of this procedure is that the carbonyl or methylene component is generated during the process from more accessible reagents; therefore, compounds with functional groups unstable under conventional Claisen conditions can be involved.

rhodium catalyst. The synthetic potential of rhodiumcatalyzed α-acylation was demonstrated by one-pot syntheses of diketone 59 from benzoic acid and methyl vinyl ketone and of 3,4-dimethyl-5-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (60) from benzoyl chloride, methyl vinyl ketone, and hydrazine hydrate (Scheme 20). 2-Acetylindan-1-one 61 was synthesized via intraand intermolecular cross-coupling [34, 35]. The reaction of 2-iodobenzaldehyde with methyl vinyl ketone in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]octane (DABCO) (Baylis-Hillman reaction) gave adduct 62 [34] which underwent intramolecular Heck cyclization to 1,3-diketone 61.

2.2.1. Acylation of α,β-unsaturated ketones, aldehydes, and acylated enones. Sato et al. [33] synthesized 1,3-diketones by α-acylation of α,β-unsaturated ketones 56 and 57 with acid chlorides 58 in the presence of rhodium catalyst [RhCl(PPh3)3] and diethylzinc (Scheme 19). The reaction of RhCl(PPh3)3 with Et 2 Zn gives rhodium hydride complex A′ through ethylrhodium complex A. The reduction of initial enone 56 with complex A′ initially leads to rhodium enolate B (generation of methylene component), and the subsequent oxidative addition of acid chloride 58 yields complex C. The latter undergoes reductive elimination to produce β-diketone and regenerate

volves oxidative addition of acetylpalladium to adduct 62 with formation of palladium complex A; intramolecular coordination in A leads to complex B which cyclizes to intermediate C, and elimination of Pd(OAc)2HI from the latter yields β-diketone 61 [34] (Scheme 21). A small amount of cyclic β-diketone 61 (7%) was detected by GLC while studying electrochemical arylation of methyl vinyl ketone with ethyl 2-bromobenzoate in the presence of a nickel catalyst [35]. Presumably, it was formed as a result of intramolecular acyla-

tion of the cross-coupling product. The major component of the reaction mixture was ethyl benzoate (dehalogenation product of the initial bromo ester; Scheme 22). Fukuyama et al. [36] proposed an efficient procedure for the synthesis of 2-alkyl-1,3-diketones 63–66 by catalytic addition of aldehydes to accessible α,β-unsaturated ketones in the presence of ruthenium hydride complex RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 (Scheme 23).

of ethyl vinyl ketone with benzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde afforded 77% of tetracarbonyl compound 67 [36] (Scheme 24). Sada and Matsubara [37] reported on the formation of 1,3-diketones in the tandem reaction of acylated enones 68a with bis(iodozinc)methane. 1,4-Addition of CH2(ZnI)2 to γ-acyloxy-α,β-unsaturated ketone 68a gives enolate A (generation of methylene component) with a C–Zn bond, and intramolecular acylation in A yields structure B which undergoes Grob type fragmentation through cleavage of the C–Zn bond with formation of enolate C and iodozinc prop-2-enolate

(Scheme 25). Keto ester 68a (R1 = R2 = Ph) gave rise exclusively to symmetrical dibenzoylmethane (97%), whereas a mixture of three compounds was obtained from homologous keto ester 68b (Scheme 26). Compound 69 is the hydrolysis product of enolate A, and 1,5-diketone 70 is formed as a result of intermolecular addition of enolate like A to initial ketone 68b and subsequent Grob fragmentation. Lactones 71 reacted with CH2(ZnI)2 to give cyclic 1,3-diketones 72 via ring contraction in a tandem process. The tandem reaction of diketones 73–75 with CH2(ZnI)2 afforded triketones 76–78 with excellent yields (Scheme 27).

Selective synthesis of β-diketones by oxidative rearrangement of alkynols A–D in the presence of IPrAuNTf 2 was reported in [38]. The catalyst was prepared directly from IPrAuCl and AgNTf 2 in CH2Cl2, and 4-methylpyridine N-oxide was used as

oxidant (Scheme 28). Two possible reaction paths were considered: (a) coordination of alkyne to L-Au+ with subsequent nucleophilic attack by Py+O– and formation of intermediate E and (b) coordination of Py+O– to L-Au+ with formation of intermediate F. The authors believed path b to be preferred (Scheme 29).

2.2.3. Acetylacetone in the synthesis of β-diketones. The simplest β-diketone, acetylacetone, was converted into a large number of various β-diketones as a result of three-component carbonylation–α-arylation with aryl bromides [39]. Carbon(II) oxide was generated ex situ [40] from 9-methylfluorene-9-carbonyl chloride in the course of the process. The gen-

eration of CO and arylation of acetylacetone were catalyzed by dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)palladium(II) [PdCl2(cod)], and MgCl2 was added to promote enolization of the initial diketone. The reaction involves intermediate formation of triketones A which can be isolated if necessary. Deacetylation of triketones A on treatment of the reaction mixture with 2 M HCl at

reaction can be carried out on a multigram scale. In the absence of MgCl2, aryl bromides were converted into the corresponding acids 80 as shown in Scheme 31 [39]. Further carbonylation–α-arylation of 79 (R =

SHOKOVA et al. Xia et al. [44] proposed a procedure for the selective α-alkylation of dibenzoylmethane, benzoylacetone, and acetylacetone with secondary alcohols in nitromethane in the presence of sulfuric acid [44]. The reactions were carried in nitromethane, the ratio H2SO4–alcohol–β-diketone being 0.05 : 1 : 3 (5 min, 101°C), or under the same conditions in combination with MW irradiation. In both cases, the yields of diketones 90 ranged from 80 to 98% and differed only slightly for the two methods (Scheme 37). Pentane2,4-dione and 1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione were converted into the corresponding triketones 91 by alkylation with bromomethyl 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl ketone in toluene in the presence of sodium methoxide [45] (Scheme 38). Propargyl alcohols reacted with 1,3-diketones in the presence of TsOH to give two different α-alkylation products, depending on the initial alcohol (Scheme 39). Either propargyl (path a; 92, R2 = H) or allenyl derivatives (path b; 93, R2 = Ph) were selectively formed [46]. The presence of a substituent (R6) on the α-carbon atom in the initial diketone was necessary for the reaction to follow path b. The reactions of di- and triphenylalkynols with acetylacetone and dibenzoylmethane afforded conjugated dienediones 94, presumably through intermediate α,β-unsaturated ketone. These results allowed development of a fairly

formations involved modification of the α-carbon atom of 1,3-diketones and their heterocyclizations with participation of the carbonyl groups (β- and β′-carbons). 3.1. Chemical properties of β-diketones 3.1.1. Modification of the α-CH2(CH) fragment. Alkylation. Selective alkylation of β-diketones with benzyl alcohols was achieved in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid [43]. As a result, the corresponding monoalkyl derivatives were obtained in high yields. The reaction proceeds either directly with elimination of water or through intermediate ether. Reactions of diketones R 1 C(O)CHR 3 C(O)R 2 [R 1 = R2 = Me, Ph, R3 = H; R1 = R2 = R3 = Me; R1 = Ph, R2 = Me, R3 = H; R1 = Me, R2R3 = (CH2)3] with benzyl alcohols ArCH(OH)R [Ar = Ph, 4-Br(Cl, F, NO2)C6H4, 2(3)-BrC6H4, naphthalen-2-yl; R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu, CH=CH2, Ph, 4-F(Cl)C6H4] were studied. The reaction of benzhydrol with acetylacetone in nitromethane gave an equimolar mixture of diphenylmethane and benzophenone [43]. When trifluoromethanesulfonic acid was replaced by p-toluenesulfonic acid, only the alkylation product was formed. Regardless of the catalyst, alkylation of the diketone was the only process under solvent-free conditions (Scheme 36).

simple one-pot procedure for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted furans 95 from propargyl alcohols and symmetrical diketones [46] (Scheme 40). 2-Ferrocenylmethyl-1,3-diketones 96 were synthesized by reacting acetylacetone, dibenzoylmethane, and 1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione with ferrocenylmethanol (FcCH 2 OH) in CH 2 Cl 2 –40% aq. HBF 4 [47–49] (Scheme 41). Cross-coupling of the same β-diketones with N-substituted pyrrolidin-2-ones, catalyzed by Cu(OTf) 2 , afforded a large series of 2-substituted 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds 97 containing an oxopyrrolidine fragment [50] (Scheme 42). The reaction followed the nucleophilic substitution pattern (Scheme 43). Copper-catalyzed oxidative alkylation of aromatic β-diketones with benzylic hydrocarbons gave the corresponding 2-substituted 1,3-diketones [51] (Scheme 44). The reaction involves intermediate formation of phenylalkyl benzoate which alkylates 1,3-dicarbonyl nucleophile.

Oxidative cross-coupling of β-diketones with 1,3-diarylpropynes was achieved using dichlorodicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) as oxidant. The resulting dicarbonyl compounds 98 contained an arylethynyl fragment [52]. The reaction mechanism involves abstraction of hydride ion from the benzylic position of diarylpropyne and subsequent nucleophilic attack on the benzyl cation thus formed by the dicarbonyl compound (Scheme 45). Radical alkylation of diketones was reported in only one publication [53]. 1,3-Diketones with unsubstituted α-CH2 group readily reacted with trifluoroiodomethane in DMSO in the presence of Fenton reagent. Presumably, attack by CF 3· radical on the α-carbon atom of the diketone is followed by oxidation of intermediate radical species to produce α-trifluoromethyl-substituted 1,3-diketone 99 (Scheme 46). Introduction of an adamantyl fragment into the α-position of β-diketones has recently been reported

1,3-DIKETONES. SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES heating the reactants in anhydrous diethyl ether in the absence of acid or base catalyst. According to the authors, the acidity of fluorinated 1,3-diketones is sufficient to generate adamantan-1-yl cation from dehydroadamantane (Scheme 48). Acylation. The acylation of cyclopentane-1,3-dione with perfluorinated carboxylic acids in the presence of 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole or with perfluorinated carboxylic acid anhydrides in the presence of imidazole afforded triketones 100 with completely enolized perfluoroacyl fragment [58] (Scheme 49). The exocyclic carbonyl group in 100 was selectively reduced to hydroxy by ionic hydrogenation. Enamines 101 were synthesized in a one-pot process including treatment of triketone 100 with oxalyl chloride and primary amine [58] (Scheme 50). Shen et al. [59] described selective α-acylation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, including β-diketones, with carboxylic acid chlorides, catalyzed by SmCl3

[59]. The products were triketones 102, as well as 103 and 104 (from cyclic diketones, cyclohexane-1,3-dione and 2-acetylcyclopentanone). Intramolecular acylation (cyclization) was observed in analogous reaction with 2-(1,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropyl)benzoyl chloride (105), which afforded polycyclic triketone 106 in excellent yield (Scheme 51). Condensation and addition reactions. Tetraketones 107 and 108 were synthesized from cyclic β-diketones (dimedone and indan-1,3-dione) and aromatic aldehydes by Knoevenagel and Michael reactions catalyzed by sulfonic acid-functionalized silica-coated nano-Fe 3 O 4 particles [60]. The catalyst is readily accessible, and it can be readily removed from the reaction mixture using an external magnet and reused several times without appreciable loss in activity (Scheme 52). Substituted β-diketones 109 were converted into α-oxo(thioketene) dithioacetals 110 by reaction with

the presence of In(OTf)3, BuLi, and Et3N [68]. Though the role of BuLi and Et3N was not clearly understood, the obtained data indicated that they are necessary components of the reaction mixture. The amounts of In(OTf)3, BuLi, and Et3N were 2.5 mol % each in the reaction with pentane-2,4-dione and 5.0 mol % in the reactions with other diketones. The addition product to pentane-2,4-dione has enol structure. A probable mechanism of the catalytic addition is shown in Scheme 61.

oxidant. According to the mechanism proposed by the authors, initially formed oxidative addition product 117 reacted with the diketone, yielding compound 116. This mechanism is supported by the formation of polyketone 116 from keto ester 117 and dibenzoylmethane (Scheme 59). A new Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed Mannich-type reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, including acetylacetone and benzoylacetone, with enecarbamates, was described in [67]. Supposedly, the copper salt initially reacts with the diketone to produce copper enolate and a strong Brønsted acid. The latter transforms the initial enecarbamate into the active iminium species. Formalistically, the reaction can be regarded as addition of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to aliphatic aldehyde imines that are commonly unstable and are difficult to isolate (Scheme 60).

[2 + 2 + 2]-Cyclotrimerization of 1,3-diketones with terminal alkynes, catalyzed by MnBr(CO)5, was proposed as an efficient procedure for the preparation of substituted benzenes [3, 69]. The reaction with arylacetylenes was regioselective, and the corresponding p-terphenyl derivatives were formed with high yields. Analogous reaction with terminal aliphatic alkynes gave mixtures of regioisomers (Scheme 62).

Pentane-2,4-dione and its methyl homolog, 2-acetylcyclopentanone, and 2-acetylcyclohexanone gave addition products with phenyl- and hexylacetylenes in

Photoredox catalytic reaction of 2-bromo-1,3-diketones with arylalkynes led to the formation of polysubstituted naphthols 118 and furans 119 [70]. Naph-

1,3-DIKETONES. SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES the α-position with bromodimethylsulfonium bromide in methylene chloride to give the corresponding monobromo derivatives 120 [71]. The reaction is fast, and the resulting bromides can be easily isolated and purified (Scheme 64). Kitamura et al. [72] reported on the fluorination of diketones in the system PhIO– 55% aq. HF–CH2Cl2 at 40°C. The reaction is likely to involve hypervalent iodine intermediate (Scheme 65). α-Halogenation of 1,3-diketones was accomplished using tetraethylammonium halides, and α-azidation, using tetrabutylammonium azide in acetonitrile–H2O (9 : 1) [73]. The reaction was initiated by (diacetoxy-λ3iodanyl)benzene (Scheme 66). Direct α-amination of acetylacetone and dibenzoylmethane with p-toluenesulfonamide in the presence of PhIO as oxidant and Zn(ClO4)2 as catalyst readily afforded compounds 121a [74]. Analogous reaction with dimedone gave iodonium ylide 121b. A plausible mechanism involves initial formation of PhI=NTs from TsNH2 and PhIO, followed by reaction with the di-

783

ketone to give intermediate A. Depending on the diketone nature, intermediate A is converted into either N-tosylimino derivative 121a or cyclic ylide 121b. The latter is fairly stable due to intramolecular bonding of the two carbonyl oxygen atoms with iodine(III) (Scheme 67). 2-Acylindan-1-ones were readily hydroxylated with 3-phenyl-1-tosyloxaziridine in toluene in the presence of chiral guanidine derivative 122 which was prepared from diethyl L-tartrate. 2-Acyl-2-hydroxyindan-1-ones 123 were thus synthesized in 90–99% yield with high enantioselectivity (ee 79–88%) [75] (Scheme 68). Acetylacetone reacted with arenediazonium salts to produce azo derivatives 124 which were fully characterized by spectral (IR, UV, 1H and 13C NMR), potentiometric, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric data [76]. Compounds 124 were found to exist in DMSO solution and in crystal exclusively in the hydrazo form (among four possible tautomers), which is stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bond

(Scheme 69). β-Diketones 125 containing a triazolylazo group in the 2-position were synthesized by reaction of 1,3-diketones with triazolediazonium salts [77]. Fluorinated 1,3-diketones reacted with hetarenediazonium chlorides, yielding 1,2,3-triketone 2-heteroarylhydrazones 126 [78] (Scheme 70). Moderate yields of 126 were ascribed to side reactions, the main of which is the Japp–Klingemann hydrolytic cleavage. This re-

action becomes the major process when the initial diketone contains a bulky substituent (R = t-Bu). In this case, the product (yield 35%) was a 85 : 15 mixture of hydrazo ketone and azo-enol tautomers 127a and 127b (Scheme 71). β-Diketones 3 (R3 = H), cyclohexane-1,3-dione, and dimedone were subjected to nitrosation with a mixture of NaNO2, moist SiO2 (50 vol. %), and oxal-

Two series of curcumin derivatives, ester (129) and acid (130), were prepared starting from α-carboxymethyl-substituted β-diketones [82] according to two schemes. Scheme a included the following steps: (1) B2O3 (1 mmol), β-diketone 3 (R1 = R2 = H, R3 = tBuOCOCH2, 1 mmol), DMF, 80°C; (2) tributyl borate (4 mmol); (3) ArCHO (1.8 mmol), BuNH2 (0.4 mmol), DMF, 80°C; (4) 0.5 M HCl; (5) 50% CF3COOH in CH2Cl2, 0°C.

Transformations of β-diketones 3 via cleavage of the R 1 (R 2 )C–C(O) bond. Huang et al. [83] used 1,3-diketones as starting compounds for the preparation of 1,2-diketones 131. Selective cleavage of the C–C bond in β-diketones was accomplished in the presence of FeCl3 as catalyst and tert-butyl nitrite as oxidant. The formation of intermediates A–C was promoted by t-BuONO without participation of FeCl3, while the latter coordinates to the C=O group in C, yielding intermediate D which undergoes Wagner– Meerwein rearrangement into E, and the subsequent eliminatio n of C=O y ields 1,2 - diketo ne 1 3 1

Copper(I)-catalyzed aerobic oxidative esterification involved activation and dissociation of the C–C(O) bond in 1,3-diarylpropane-1,3-diones [Ar = Ph, 4-Me(MeO, t-Bu, F, Cl, Br, CF3)C6H4, thiophen-3yl, naphthalen-1-yl, naphthalen-2-yl; R = PhCH2CH2, 4-Br(MeO)C 6 H 4 CH 2 CH 2 , 4-H(Me, F, Cl, Br, CN) C 6 H 4 CH 2 , 2-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethyl, EtC≡CCH 2, Br(Cl)CH2CH2, Ph2CH, Me, Et, indan-1-yl].

One-pot reaction of β-diketones with para-substituted anilines, catalyzed by silica ferric hydrogen sulfate, under solvent-free conditions at room temperature gave 80–95% of β-enaminones 135 [88]. As proposed in [88], the α-CH2 group participates in the stabilization of intermediate A and formation of intermediate B which is converted into the final product with regeneration of the catalyst (Scheme 81). According to the B3LYP/6-31G** calculations, enaminoketone tautomer of 135 is more stable than iminoenol both in the gas phase and in solution (CHCl 3 , MeCN, EtOH, cyclohexane, H2O; Scheme 82). Acetylacetone, benzoylacetone, and dibenzoylmethane were reported [89] to readily form enol trifluoromethanesulfonates on

treatment with lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate in the presence of bases [NEt3, EtN(i-Pr)2] in CH2Cl2 at 0°C. The reaction is stereoselective: the Z/E isomer ratio is 99 : 1 (yield 41–87%; Scheme 83). 1,3-Bis-silyl ethers 136a and 136b derived from acetylacetone and benzoylacetone, respectively, reacted with benzoyl chloride to give 2-benzoyl derivatives; the reaction of 136a with isophthaloyl dichloride afforded the corresponding bis-triketone [90] (Scheme 84). Unsymmetrical β-diketones can be converted into 1,4-diketones 137 and trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanols 138a and 138b according to one-pot procedure utilizing organozinc compounds [91].

azo–hydrazone rearrangements. Amides 141 prefer hydrazonoketoamide structure C (Scheme 87). A multistep synthesis of analytical reagent 142 containing a β-dicarbonyl fragment was developed by Magano et al. [93]. The required β-diketone with a 4-nitrophenyl substituent was prepared from acetylacetone or tert-butyl acetoacetate (Scheme 88). Following the optimized procedure [94] (Scheme 89), compound 142 was synthesized on a multigram scale with high purity (>99%). It is used for the determination of the number of LysH93 active sites available for conjugation on a catalytic aldolase monoclonal antibody (mAb). The interaction of 142 with mAb yields enamine absorbing at λ 316 nm, and its amount can be measured by UV/Vis spectroscopy (Scheme 90). 3.1.5. Miscellaneous. β-Diketones were brought into catalytic reaction with acetylene derivatives to obtain aromatic compounds [95]. The reaction of acetylacetone with phenylacetylene in the presence of

and nonfluorinated substituents. Compounds 139 with a short fluoroalkyl group (C1 or C2) react with MeNH2 on heating in ethanol to form monocondensation products, 2-aryldiazenyl-1,3-enaminoketones 140 [92]. If the fluoroalkyl group in 139 is C3 or longer, mixtures of compounds 140 (path a) and N-methyl-2-arylhydrazono-3-oxobutanamides 141 (path b) are obtained. Path b is likely to include amine addition to the fluorinated acyl carbonyl and subsequent haloform cleavage (Scheme 86). Compounds 140 and 141 are complex tautomeric systems capable of undergoing azo–hydrazone, keto– enol, imino–enamine, hydrazono–ketoamide, and other tautomeric transformations, as well as of Z/E-isomerism with respect to the C=C and C=N bonds). Compound 140 in CHCl3 exists as one isomer of the hydrazonoiminoketone tautomer (Z-A), and in crystal, as azaenaminoketone tautomer Z-B [92]. Presumably, its dissolution is accompanied by enamino–imine and

1,3-DIKETONES. SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES obtained by reaction of 3-methylpentane-2,4-dione and 2-methyl-1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione with 4-methoxyphenyl- and diphenylacetylenes in the presence of [ReBr(CO)3(thf)3]. A probable reaction mechanism was discussed [95]. Nontoxic moisture stable iron(III) 1,3-diketonates catalyzed transesterification of esters with alcohols [96]. The catalytic activity of Fe(acac)3, Fe(acac)2, Fe(tmhd)3 (tmdh is 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5dione), Fe(dbm) 3 (dbm is dibenzoylmethane), and Fe(hfacac)3 (hfacac is 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetone). More than twenty alcohols were reacted with more than twenty structurally diverse esters. The optimal conditions were as follows: ester-to-alcohol ratio 1 : 1, Fe(acac) (5 mol %), Na2CO3 (5 mol%), heptane (reflux). In most cases, the yields of the transesterification products exceeded 90%. The reaction mechanism [96] is illustrated by Scheme 92.

cells were treated for 24 h. Curcumin, a dietary pigment from Curcuma longa L., was used as reference. Curcumin exhibits various biological activities such as antioxidant, antiangiogenesis, and anticancer. The cytotoxicity of curcumin [CC50 = 23.6 μg/mL with respect to HSC-2; tumor specific cytotoxicity SI = CC50(HSG)/CC50(HSC-2) = 1.7] is attributed to the presence of a β-dicarbonyl fragment in its molecule. The activity of camphor derivatives 144a and 144b was comparable with that of curcumin (CC 50 = 21.7 μg/mL, SI = 4.3 for 144b and CC50 = 29.7 μg/mL, SI = 3.0 for 144a). Ketoaldehyde 143 considerably exceeded curcumin in cytotoxicity (CC50 = 7.8 μg/mL, SI = 5.4), though only tyrosine kinase inhibition was previously noted for this compound. The antimicrobial activity of curcumin analogs, 5-heteroaryl-1-phenylpent-4-ene-1,3-diones 145 and their copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes was studied with respect to Staphylococus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa; in addition, their fungicidal effect on Candida albicans

Ferrari et al. [82] studied the relations between physicochemical properties of curcumin analogs 129 and 130 (acidity, lipophilicity, kinetic stability, and free radical scavenging activity) and their cytotoxicity against different tumorigenic cell lines (human ovarian carcinoma cells 2008, A2780, C13*, and A2780/CP and human colon carcinoma cells HCT116 and LoVo). Most esters 129 showed lower IC50 values than curcumin and exhibited selectivity for HCT116 and LoVo. The highest activity was observed after 24-h exposure at the micromolar level at a concentration of ~1/3 of the curcumin concentration. The most active were compounds 129 (R1 = OMe, R2 = H, OH, OAc). 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropane-1,3-diones 146 were tested for antimicrobial activity against gram-negative (E. coli) and gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus, B. subtilis) and fungicidal activity against Aspergillus niger and Fusarium oxysporum [98].

Unsymmetrical β-diketone 148 exhibited high antibacterial activity against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. vulgaris; the activity of its copper(II) complex was lower [100]. However, the activity of the latter against B. subtilis was much higher than that of the free ligand. 3.3. Physicochemical Properties of β-Diketones Some physicochemical properties of bis-1,3-diketones 149a and 149b and unsymmetrical 1,3-diarylpropane-1,3-diones 150a and 150b having a methoxycarbonyl group in one aromatic ring were studied in [11]. Their electronic absorption spectra in anhydrous ethanol, acetonitrile, and heptane were examined. Analysis of the 1H NMR spectra in DMSO-d6, acetone-d6, CDCl3, and benzene-d6 showed that keto–enol equilibrium is strongly displaced toward the enol tautomer, while the diketone fraction slightly increased with rise in solvent polarity. All the examined diketones revealed strong absorption in the region λ 320– O

The absorption and emission maxima of compounds 152 containing a naphthalene fragment (R1 = 6-methoxynaphthalen-2yl, R2 = Ph, 4-t-BuC6H4) are appreciably red-shifted as compared to their benzene analogs (R1 = 4-MeC6H4, R 2 = F, Cl; R 1 = PhOCH 2 C 6 H 4 , R 2 = 4-t-BuC 6 H 4 ). Complexes 152 may be promising for use in fluorescent and electroluminescent materials.

These effects were especially pronounced for tetraketone 149a in which the dicarbonyl fragments are conjugated through the aromatic ring. Compound 149b was considered to be promising for use as sunscreen in cosmetics. Kozlov et al. [101] studied luminescence spectral properties of hydrobenzo[b]phenanthrolin-8-one derivatives 151 in ethanol at 293 and 77 K. The compounds are characterized by a high oscillator strength f for the allowed electron transitions Sn ← S0 (n = 1–3). The authors believed it reasonable to study their luminescent properties in rigid polymeric matrices at room temperature with a view to design of large flexible fine-film panels for photovoltaic elements, optical light filters, and electroluminescent displays.

ketones are few in number. In particular, enol trifluoromethanesulfonates derived from acetylacetone and benzoylacetone (161) reacted with ethyl diazoacetate in DMF in the presence of palladium catalyst and N-methylmorpholine to produce 3,4,5-substituted pyrazoles 162 [117] (Scheme 94). Analogous reaction

of 3-substituted (Z)-4-oxopent-2-en-2-yl trifluoromethanesulfonates gave trisubstituted pyrazoles 163 instead of expected tetrasubstituted derivatives. This was rationalized by the migration of the C-acyl group to the nitrogen atom and subsequent hydrolysis on treatment of the reaction mixture with K2CO3–H2O at

165 was formed even at room temperature. The reaction with unsymmetrical diketone 166a was regioselective, and the fluoroalkyl substituent (R2 = CHF2CF2) occupied the 4-position in the pyrimidine ring. Heating of the product in boiling toluene in the presence of TsOH resulted in dehydration (Scheme 98).

All these compounds showed some activity, and the best results were observed for 5-(4-fluorophenyl) and 5-(pyridin-4-yl) derivatives.

Knoevenagel condensation of acetylacetone with benzaldehyde and anisaldehyde in the system [Bmim][BF4]–Pip][OAc] afforded the corresponding phenylmethylidene derivatives [120] (Scheme 99). The catalytic system [Bmim] [BF4]–Pip][OAc] enabled one-pot synthesis of dihydropyrimidine derivative 167 from 3-benzylidenepentane-2,4-dione via reaction with O-methylisourea, N-ethoxycarbonylation with ethyl chloroacetate, and O-demethylation (Scheme 100).

4.2. Substituted Pyrimidines and Their Derivatives 2,3-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones(thiones) 164 were synthesized by the Biginelli reaction of acetylacetone and dimedone with aldehydes and urea (thiourea), catalyzed by alkylammonium or alkylimidazolium salts under solvent-free conditions [118] (Scheme 96). 5-Aroyl(heteroaroyl)-4-fluoroalkyl-4-hydroxytetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-ones(thiones) 165 were isolated in the condensation of fluorinated β-diketones 166a and 166b with aromatic (heteroaromatic) aldehydes and urea (thiourea) in a ionic liquid ([Bmim] [BF4]) in the presence of piperidinium acetate [119] (Scheme 97). Symmetrical diketone 166b was the most reactive, and the corresponding pyrimidine

β-Diketones and β-keto esters were converted into 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones 168 by a modified Biginelli reaction [121] (Scheme 101). One-pot condensation of aromatic aldehyde with urea (thiourea) and 1,3-dicarbonyl compound was carried out in the presence of a new inexpensive catalyst prepared by treatment of bioglycerol with sulfuric acid (the

procedure was not given). The reaction is experimentally simple and fast, compounds 168 are formed with excellent yields, and the catalyst can be recycled at least four times without loss of activity. About 30 pyrimidin-2-one derivatives were synthesized (including polycyclic compounds) in 80–92% yield. In the reaction of benzaldehyde with urea and cyclohexane-1,3dione or dimedone, bicyclic compounds 169 were isolated (yield 80–81%). Fresh pineapple juice (pH 3.7, acidity percentage 53.5%) catalyzed the Biginelli reaction of substituted benzaldehydes with urea and acetylacetone to afford a series of dihydropyrimidines 170 [122]. The reaction was fairly fast at room temperature, and the isolation

procedure was not difficult. The amount of the catalyst was 1 mL per 10 mmol of each reactant (Scheme 102). Acyclic β-diketone 171a was used as starting compound in the synthesis of 5-bromomethyl-, 5-hydroxymethyl-, and 5-formylpyrimidines as precursors to rosuvastatin (172), a hypolipidemic agent reducing the size of atherosclerosis plaques and increasing the blood vessel lumen [123] (Scheme 103). In the reaction with diketone 171b, the cyclization step was catalyzed by cesium carbonate in methyltetrahydrofuran as solvent, which ensured high selectivity of the process. The retro-Claisen reaction product (ethyl 4-fluorophenyl ketone) was formed in a low yield (6%), the conversion of 171b being 99% (Scheme 104).

changer [129] (Scheme 112). Palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira, Suzuki, and Heck reactions with iodo derivative 183 (R 1 = 3-HOC 6 H 4 , R 2 = 4-IC 6 H 4 ) afforded compounds 184a–184c (Scheme 113). Compounds 183 [129] were tested as potential inhibitors of yeast sirtuin Sir2, a protein involved in such biological processes as aging, apoptosis, and stress resistance. The highest activity (40%) was observed for 183 (R1 = 3-HOC6H4, R2 = 4-IC6H4). Molecular docking study showed the possibility for the formation of a stable complex between this compound and Sir2 active site. Phthalazino[2,3-b]phtalazine-1,7,12-triones 185 were synthesized by one-pot reaction of phthalazine-

1,4-dione with aromatic aldehydes and cyclic β-diketones (cyclohexane-1,3-dione and dimedone) in the presence of cerium nitrate (5 mol %) using PEG 400 as solvent [130] (Scheme 114). Apart from substituted benzaldehydes, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carbaldehyde, piperonal, and aliphatic aldehydes RCHO (R = Et, Pr, i-Bu, C6H11) were involved. In the reactions with aliphatic aldehydes, the yield decreased to 62–64%.

and methyl 2,2-dimethyl-4,6-dioxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate with quinolin-8-amine and aromatic aldehydes afforded ten hexahydrobenzo[b][1,10]phenanthrolin-8-one derivatives [101] (Scheme 118).

About twenty quinoline derivatives were obtained from unsymmetrical 1,3-diketones and 4-substituted 2-aminobenzaldehydes in the presence of LaCl3 · 7 H2O in acetic acid (Friedländer reaction) [131]. The reaction was highly regioselective, and in all cases, isomer B was formed preferentially or exclusively (ratio B/A 90 : 10 to 100 : 0). Even in the reaction with sterically hindered β-diketone (R2 = i-Pr, R3 = t-Bu), the fraction of isomer B was 80%. The overall yield of isomers A and B ranged from 81 to 85% (Scheme 115). Analogous reaction of 2-aminopyridine-3-carbaldehyde with benzoylacetone gave 90% of 1,8-naphthyridine 186 with 94% selectivity (Scheme 116).

2-Substituted 4-(benzenesulfonylmethyl)furans 187 were prepared by reaction of 1,3-diketones [hexane2,4-dione, benzoylacetone, MeCOCH2COR (R = alkyl, alkenyl, phenylalkyl) with 1-(benzenesulfonyl)-2,3-dibromoprop-1-ene [133] (Scheme 119). 4-(Benzenesulfonyl)-2-methylfuran (188) was formed as byproduct. The lowest overall yield of 187 and 188 was obtained with R = Ph(CH2)3 (36%, 187/188 5 : 1), and the highest yields were for R = Bu (93%, 187/188 16 : 1) and i-Pr (95%, 187/188 38 : 1). Acetylacetone, dibenzoylmethane, and cyclohexane-1,3-dione reacted with phenylacetylene to form a new Csp–Csp3 bond as result of direct functionalization of Csp–H and Csp3–H bonds. Intermediate α-phenylethynyl β-diketone underwent cyclization to substituted furan 189. The reaction was catalyzed by Ag2CO3 and AcOK in DMF [134] (Scheme 120). Tetrasubstituted furans 190 were synthesized from propargylic acid esters and 1,3-diketones in the presence of Sn/Cu catalyst and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) in toluene [135] (Scheme 121). The reaction of but-3-yne-1,4-diols with 1,3-diketones catalyzed by

Polyfluoroalkyl-substituted dihydroimidazotriazines were synthesized by azo coupling of fluorinated 1,3-diketones with 4-ethoxycarbonyl-1H-imidazole-5diazonium chloride [132] (Scheme 117). The products in crystal were found to have structure B, while in solution ring–chain isomerism is possible via dissociation of the C4–N5 bond, which is especially characteristic for compounds with the RF substituent longer than C1.

TsOH in nitromethane at room temperature gave tetrasubstituted furans 191a–191e [136] (Scheme 122). Scheme 123 shows the mechanism of their formation. Albrecht et al. [137] were the first to accomplish enantioselective synthesis of 2-(1-hydroxybutyl)- and 2-(1-aminobutyl)-2,3-dihydrofurans 192a and 192b and 2-[1-hydroxy(amino)butyl]furans 193a and 193b according to the one-pot procedure including highly stereoselective catalytic epoxidation (aziridination) of

(E)-hex-2-enal and subsequent Feist–Bénary reaction. Intermediate dihydrofurans 192 were converted without isolation into furans 193 (Scheme 124, path a). Alternatively, dihydrofurans 194a and 194b having three chiral centers can be isolated (path b). Dhiman and Ramasastry [138] described the transformation of 1-benzofuran-2-ylmethanols 195 and 196a–196c into polysubstituted furans in the reaction with β-diketones, catalyzed by TfOH, which involved

alkenylfuran 198 as a mixture of E and Z isomers at a ratio of 3 : 1. Under analogous conditions, 5-methylfuran-2-ylmethanols 196d with acetylacetone gave rise to tetrasubstituted furans 197d. Enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed Michael addition of acetylacetone and dibenzoylmethane to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes led to the formation of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones 199a [139]. The catalyst was camphor-derived triazolium salt (NHC, 10 mol %) in combination with NaBF 4 (5 mol %), DBU (15 mol %) was used as a base, and tetra(tertbutyl)quinone (TBQ, 1 equiv) was used as oxidant

(Scheme 126). 2H-Pyran-2-ones 199b were selectively synthesized from symmetrical and unsymmetrical β-diketones and 3-aryl-3-bromoprop-2-enals in the presence of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), TBQ, and NaH [140] (Scheme 127). When the reaction was carried out in the absence of oxidant (TBQ) using chiral precursor NHC-1 instead of NHC, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) as a base, a mixture of toluene with tert-butyl alcohol as a solvent, and LiCl as an additive, dihydropyranones 199c were obtained in high yield with high enantioselectivity [140] (Scheme 128).

Polyfunctional polycyclic and fused systems containing a furan (197e, 197f) or pyran fragment (200) were obtained by regioselective cascade reactions of β-dicarbonyl compounds with MBH (Morita–Baylis– Hillman) acetates 201 derived from nitroalkenes and ethyl glyoxalate [141] (Scheme 129). The reactions initiated by DABCO involved the Michael–5-exo-trigoxa-Michael sequence for acyclic and six-membered cyclic β-diketones, yielding the corresponding furan derivatives 197e and 197f. In the reaction with fivemembered cyclic diketones, the Michael–5-endo-trigoxa-Michael cascade resulted in fused 4H-pyrans 200 (Scheme 130). 2-Alkoxy-2H-chromenes 202 were synthesized by reaction of 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes with acetylacetone in alcohols used also as solvent in the presence of L-proline as catalyst [142] (Scheme 131). Dehydroacetic acid obtained from 2H-pyran-2-one was brought into condensation with aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes to obtain compounds 203 and 204 as potential antitumor agents [143] (Scheme 132). The products (26 compounds) were tested as activators of the

Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway responsible for cell protection against oxidative stress. Compound 203 (R = 3,4-F2) was found to be a potent Nrf2/ARE activator in human colorectal cancer cells. o-Hydroxy-substituted 1,3-diarylpropane-1,3-diones 205 were converted in several steps into 6,7-disubstituted 2-aryl-4H-benzopyran-4-ones 206 which were expected to exhibit antibacterial activity [144] (Scheme 133). Compounds 206 (R1 = OH, R3 = pyrrolidin-1-yl, R2 = Cl, Br, OMe) were tested as solutions in DMF on P. aeruginosa, B. subtilis, and E. coli after 24-h incubation using Norfloxacin as reference. Benzopyranones 206b and 206c showed high activity against P. aeruginosa, 206a was highly active against B. subtilis, and 206a and 206b revealed high activity against E. coli. Ferreira et al. [145] studied in detail the bromination and iodination with N-bromo- and N-iodosuccinimides (NBS, NIS) of (E)-5-aryl-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pent-4-ene-1,3-diones containing a styryl fragment. Conditions were found for the synthesis of 3-bromo (iodo)-2-[(E)-2-phenylethenyl]-4H-chromen-4-ones

207 via intramolecular cyclization of the primary halogenation products. Chromenes 208 and 3,6-diiodo derivatives were formed as by-products. The mechanism of formation of 3-bromo derivatives 207a–207d is shown in Scheme 134. A simple and efficient one-pot procedure for the synthesis of 12-aryl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]xanthen-11-ones 209 is based on the reaction of aldehydes (almost exclusively aromatic) with naphthalen-2-ol

and dimedone, catalyzed by thiamine hydrochloride (vitamin B 1 ) in aqueous micellar medium [146] (Scheme 135). 1,3-Diarylpropane-1,3-diones with a halogen atom (I, Br) in the ortho position of one benzene ring were subjected to cyclization by heating in toluene at 110°C in the presence of CuI (catalyst, 10 mol %), pyridine2-carboxylic acid (L, ligand, 20 mol %), and K2CO3 (base, 200 mol %).

As a result, 22 isocoumarin derivatives 210–212 were obtained in 80–98 (12 compounds) and 61–79% yield (10 compounds) [147] (Scheme 136). 3-Substituted 5-nitroisocoumarins 213 and analogs of 5-aminoisoquinolin-1-one [5-AIQ, water-soluble poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitor] were synthesized from β-diketones and 2-bromo-3nitrobenzoic acid by one-pot tandem Hurtley–retro-

Claisen–cyclization reactions [148] (Scheme 137). In the reactions with unsymmetrical diketones, the second product was 3-methyl-5-nitroisocoumarin 213a; for R′= Ph, the amount of 213a was twice as large as that of 3-phenyl derivative 213 (R′ = Ph; 8 and 4%, respectively); in the other cases, the yield of 213a ranged from 3 to 6%. 5-Nitroisocoumarins 213 were readily converted into the corresponding 5-nitroisoquinolin1-ones 214 by treatment with ammonia; the subsequent

effect was observed for 215 (R = Me), IC 50 = 0.23 ± 0.05 μmol/L (1.17–0.32 μmol/L for the other compounds). Seven compounds 215 (except for R = C5H11, Me2CHCH2, PhCH2, thiophen-2-yl) were tested against PARP-2, and their activity was higher than that of 5-AIQ (IC50 0.12 ± 0.03 to 0.83 ± 0.10 μmol/L). Acetylacetone, benzoylacetone, and diaroylmethanes reacted with substituted 2-iodo-N-phenylbenzamides (in some cases, chloro and bromo analogs were used) in the presence of Cs2CO3 and CuI in DMSO at 100°C to give isocoumarin derivatives 216 [149]. The reaction mechanism is shown in Scheme 139. Pyranoquinolinone derivatives 217 and 5-phenyl-3,4dihydrophenanthridine-1,6(2H,5H)-dione (218) were synthesized under analogous conditions (Scheme 140). 4.6. Polyheterocyclic Systems with Two or More Different Heteroatoms A convenient procedure for the preparation of benzothiazole and benzimidazole derivatives 219 and 220 by condensation of 2-aminobenzenethiols or benzene1,2-diamines with β-diketones in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid was reported in [150] (Scheme 141). Benzoylacetone reacted with 2-aminobenzenethiol to give 75% of 219 (X = S, R1 = H, R2 = Me), and 72%

of 220 (X = NH, R1 = 4-Cl, R2 = Me) in the reaction with 4-chlorobenzene-1,2-diamine. Three-component reaction of 2-aminobenzothiazole with 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and acetylacetone at 60°C under solvent-free conditions afforded 60% of 10aH-benzo[4,5][1,3]triazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine derivative 221 [151] (Scheme 142). Fused heterocyclic systems 222 containing polysubstituted pyrrole and isocoumarin fragments were synthesized by one-pot reaction of acetylacetone first with ninhydrin and then with primary amines under solvent-free conditions using silica sulfuric acid (SSA) as catalyst [152]. The proposed mechanism is shown in Scheme 143. The procedure utilizes accessible and nontoxic reagents and inexpensive catalyst which can be recycled, and the products are easy to isolate. Ganguly et al. [153] developed an efficient one-pot procedure for the synthesis of 9-(1H-indol-3-yl)xanthen-4(9H)-ones 223 by three-component reaction of dimedone with substituted 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes and 1(3)-substituted indoles in aqueous phase, catalyzed by L-proline (10 mol %) and an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfite (SDS); the latter was taken in an amount exceeding its critical micelle concentration (0.08 mmol of SDS in 2 mL of water). Compounds 223 were obtained in 86–96% yield. Analogous

reactions with N,N-dimethylaniline instead of indole afforded xanthenes 224 (Scheme 144). Multicomponent reaction of 2-amino-4-methylbenzothiazole with isatin and β-dicarbonyl compounds (including diketones) led to the formation of various spiro heterocyclic systems 225–227 [154]. Commercially available cyclic β-dicarbonyl compounds such as 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid, dimedone, 4-hydroxy-

coumarin, and 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one were used as starting materials. The reactions were carried out in aqueous medium in the presence of a sulfonylfunctionalized ionic liquid {[mim(CH2)4SO3H][HSO4], mim is N-methylimidazol-3-yl} as acid catalyst and co-solvent, and the yields attained 89–94%.

Compounds 226 and 227 were synthesized in a similar way (Scheme 145). Xie et al. [155] reported a synthesis of oxazole derivatives 228 by oxidative cascade reaction of β-diketones with benzylamine, catalyzed by tetrabutylammonium iodide (Bu4NI), using 70% aqueous tert-butyl hydroperoxide as oxidant (ethyl acetate, 40°C). The reaction involved cascade formation of C–N, C–O, and C=N bonds via dual Csp3–H activation (Scheme 146).

H 2O

β-Diketone with a pyridazine fragment, 4-acetyl5,6-diphenylpyridazin-2(1H)-one (229), was converted into a variety of heterocyclic systems [156]. Compound 229 was first subjected to Claisen condensation (Na, AcONa, reflux) with ethyl acetate to obtain 1-(3-oxo-5,6-diphenyl-2,3-dihydropyridazin-4-yl)butane-1,3-dione (230, 83%) whose subsequent transformations are illustrated by Scheme 147. Ethyl 3-(3-hydroxy-5,6-diphenyl-2,3-dihydropyridazin-4-yl)3-oxopropanoate (231) prepared from 229 and diethyl carbonate in the presence of metallic sodium was used in the synthesis of 5H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyridazin-5-one

Wang et al. [157] were the only to report one-pot synthesis of tetrasubstituted thiophenes from acetylacetone which was first treated with carbon disulfide in DMF in the presence of K2CO3, and alkyl bromide and α-bromo carbonyl compound were then added in succession. The thiophene ring was formed via intramolecular cyclization followed by modification. The yields were 86–89%, and the substitution pattern in thiophene ring depended on the order of reactant addition (Scheme 150). Fused thieno[2,3-b]thiophenes 236 were synthesized in 90–91% yield by reaction of
