One-pot synthesis of diverse 4-di(tri)fluoromethyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones and their utilities in the cascade synthesis of annulated heterocycles.
2008
Diverse substituted 4-di(tri)fluoromethyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones were synthesized via the Claisen condensation of α-methyl(methylene)ketones with di(tri)fluoroacetate, followed by the immediate Thorpe−Guareschi reaction of the preformed di(tri)fluoromethyl-1,3-diketones with cyanothioacetamide. The procedure allows facile synthesis of the di(tri)flouromethylated pyridine-2(1H)-thiones in 50–95% yields, without the need for isolation and purification of intermediates. Resultant 4-di(tri)fluoromethyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones were subsequently utilized in domino reactions to produce first various substituted thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and, then, thienopyridines polyannulated with pyridine, pyrimidine, benzodiazocine, diazepine, and pyran rings.
