UNIT - V     Heterocyclics 
AZEPINE
§  An unsaturated seven-membered heterocycle having six carbon atoms, one nitrogen atom and three double bonds.

Silver forges the ring: A new and practical silver-catalyzed [5+2] cycloaddition method has been developed for the synthesis of azepines through the formation of four new chemical bonds between a γ-amino ketone and an alkyne in one step. This method provides a new hetero-[5+2] cycloaddition strategy for the construction of seven.
Oxazine
§  Oxazines are heterocyclic compounds containing one oxygen and one nitrogen atom.
§  Many isomers exist depending on the relative position of the heteroatoms and relative position of the double bonds
§  By extension, the derivatives are also referred to as oxazines; examples include ifosfamide and morpholine(tetrahydro-1,4-oxazine). A commercially available dihydro-1,3-oxazine is a reagent in the Meyers synthesis for aldehydes. Fluorescent dyes such as Nile red and Nile blue are based on the aromatic benzophenoxazine.
Synthesis

·         The Meyers synthesis is an organic synthesis for the preparation of unsymmetrical aldehydes via hydrolysis of an oxazine.  The reaction is named after the American chemist Albert I. Meyers.
·         The starting compound is a dihydro-1,3-oxazine with an alkyl group in the 2 position. The alpha proton is acidic and can be abstracted by a strong base such as butyl lithium and subsequently alkylated by an alkyl halide (haloalkane). In the next step the nitrogen to carbon double bond (imine) is reduced with sodium borohydride and the resulting oxazine (ahemiaminal) hydrolyzed with water and oxalic acid to the aldehyde.

Thiazine
v  Thiazines are organic compounds containing a ring of four carbon, one nitrogen and one sulfur atom. Chemicals that include thiazine are used for dyes, tranquilizers and insecticides.
Reactions
         §  An efficient iodine-catalyzed approach to synthesise 1,3-thiazine has been developed, and this synthetic methodology is economical and uses cheap and readily available starting materials. This is the first example of constructing 1,3-thiazine via a sequential thia-Michael addition and cyclodehydration.

Synthesis
v  The direction of the cyclization of N,N'-disubstituted malondithioamides 1 into isomeric 5-amino-1,2,3-thiadiazoles 2 and 3. It has been shown that the ratio of isomeric heterocycles 2 and 3 depends on their relative stability. The ratio of thiadiazoles 2 and 3 in the mixture is also influenced by the solvent.
v  In order to prepare new heterocyclic sulfur compounds a systematic study of the reactions of thioamides 4-6 with acetylenedicarboxylates and propiolates has been carried out. These reactions were found to take place in three directions to form thiazine derivatives of types 7 and 9, thiazoles 8 and allylmercapto imidazoles 10.
Pyridazine
v  Pyridazine is a heterocyclic organic compound with the molecular formula (CH)4N2. It contains a six-membered ring with two adjacent nitrogen atoms, and is aromatic. It is a colorless liquid with a boiling point of 208 °C. It is isomeric with two other (CH)4N2 rings,pyrimidine and pyrazine.
Syntheses
v  In the course of his classic investigation on the Fischer indole synthesis, Emil Fischer prepared the first pyridazine via the condensation of phenylhydrazine and levulinic acid. The parent heterocycle was first prepared by oxidation of benzocinnoline to the pyridazinetetracarboxylic acid followed by decarboxylation. A better route to this otherwise esoteric compound starts with the maleic hydrazide. These heterocycles are often prepared via condensation of 1,4-diketones or 4-ketoacids with hydrazines.

An unexpected C-C bond cleavage in the absence of metal enables an efficient approach toward 3,6-diarylpyridazines and 6-arylpyridazin-3-ones from simple and commercially available 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and methyl ketones.
Pyrimidine
v  Pyrimidine is an aromatic heterocyclic organic compound similar to pyridine. One of the three diazines (six-membered heterocyclics with two nitrogen atoms in the ring), it has the nitrogens at positions 1 and 3 in the ring. The other diazines are pyrazine (nitrogens 1 and 4) and pyridazine (nitrogens 1 and 2). In nucleic acids, three types of nucleobases are pyrimidine derivatives: cytosine (C),thymine (T), and uracil (U).
Synthesis
v  As is often the case with parent heterocyclic ring systems, the synthesis of pyrimidine is not that common and is usually performed by removing functional groups from derivatives. Primary syntheses in quantity involving formamide have been reported.
v  As a class, pyrimidines are typically synthesized by the “Principal Synthesis” involving cyclization of beta-dicarbonyl compounds with N-C-N compounds. Reaction of the former with amidines to give 2-substituted pyrimidines, with urea to give 2-pyrimidiones, and guanidines to give 2-aminopyrimidines are typical.
v  Pyrimidines can be prepared via the Biginelli reaction. Many other methods rely on condensation of carbonyls with diamines for instance the synthesis of 2-Thio-6-methyluracil from thiourea and ethyl acetoacetate [21] or the synthesis of 4-methylpyrimidine with 4,4-dimethoxy-2-butanone and formamide.
v  A novel method is by reaction of certain amides with carbonitriles under electrophilic activation of the amide with 2-chloro-pyridine and trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride:


Reactions
*      Because of the decreased basicity compared to pyridine, electrophilic substitution of pyrimidine is less facile. Protonation or alkylation typically takes place at only one of the ring nitrogen atoms. Mono N-oxidation occurs by reaction with peracids.
*      Electrophilic C-substitution of pyrimidine occurs at the 5-position, the least electron deficient. Nitration, nitrosation, azo coupling, halogenation, sulfonation, formylation, hydroxymethylation, and aminomethylation have been observed with substituted pyrimidines.
*      Nucleophilic C-substitution should be facilitated at the 2-, 4-, and 6-positions but there are only a few examples. Amination and hydroxylation has been observed for substituted pyrimidines. Reactions with Grignard or alkyllithium reagents yield 4-alkyl- or 4-aryl pyrimidine after aromatization.
*      Free radical attack has been observed for pyrimidine and photochemical reactions have been observed for substituted pyrimidines. Pyrimidine can be hydrogenated to give tetrahydropyrimidine.

Pyrazine
v  Pyrazine is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound with the chemical formula C4H4N2.
Pyrazine is a symmetrical molecule with point group D2h. Derivatives such as phenazine are well known for their antitumor, antibiotic and diuretic activities. Pyrazine is less basic in nature than pyridine, pyridazine and pyrimidine. Tetramethylpyrazine (also known as ligustrazine) is reported to scavenge superoxide anion and decrease nitric oxide production in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes,[2] and is a component of some herbs in traditional Chinese medicine.

Synthesis
v  Many methods exist for the organic synthesis of pyrazine and its derivatives. Some of these are among the oldest synthesis reactions still in use.
v  In the Staedel–Rugheimer pyrazine synthesis (1876) 2-chloroacetophenone is reacted with ammonia to the amino ketone, then condensed and then oxidized to a pyrazine [4] A variation is the Gutknecht pyrazine synthesis (1879) also based on thisselfcondensation, but differing in the way the alpha-ketoamine is synthesised.
v  The Gastaldi synthesis (1921) is another variation
Azoles
v  An azole is a class of five-membered nitrogen heterocyclic ring compounds containing at least one other non-carbon atom of eithernitrogen, sulfur, or oxygen.[1] The parent compounds are aromatic and have two double bonds; there are successively reduced analogs (azolines and azolidines) with fewer. One, and only one, lone pair of electrons from each heteroatom in the ring is part of the aromatic bonding in an azole. Names of azoles maintain the prefix upon reduction (e.g., pyrazoline, pyrazolidine). The numbering of ring atoms in azoles starts with the heteroatom that is not part of a double bond, and then proceeds towards the other heteroatom.
v  Six-membered aromatic heterocyclic systems with two nitrogens include pyrimidine and purine, which are important biomolecules.
Reaction
Ø  1-Benzoylmorpholine (2.38 g, 12.5 mmol) and freshly distilled POCl3 (2.5 mL, 26.8 mmol) were mixed under an atmosphere of dinitrogen. The suspension was heated to 35 ºC until the solids were dissolved. The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for another 5 h before pyrrole (0.55 g, 8.2 mmol) in dry 1,2- dichloroethene (ca. 50 mL) was added quickly. This was stirred overnight. Saturated Na2CO3 was slowly added to the reaction solution until the aqueous layer reached pH ca. 8. The separated organic layer was collected and the aqueous solution further extracted to chloroform (4 x 25 mL). Organic solvents were combined and washed with brine (2 x 20 mL) and dried over Na2SO4. The solvents were removed under reduced pressure to leave an off-white product. (1.25 g, 89 %).
