Abstract

A novel synthesis of polyfunctionalised pyridones, ­structurally related to cardiotonic agent milrinone is described. The procedure consists of an Ugi four-component reaction of 3-formylchromones, followed by a base-promoted ring-opening/ring-closing process. Variation of three of the four components in the Ugi ­reaction allows access to the final products with a combinatorial distribution of ­substituents.

Key words

cyclisations - drugs - heterocycles - multicomponent ­reactions - pyridines

  • Enamines 9 were identified by 1H NMR and 13C NMR as the major products obtained in the reactions with 4-chloro-aniline, 3,5-dichloroaniline, 4-nitroaniline and 1-amino-naphthalene.

Synthesis of the Ugi adducts ( 7): General Procedure for Method A: 3-Formylchromone (3; R1 = H) or 6-methyl-2-formylchromone (3; R1 = CH3, 5 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH (5 mL). Amine 4 (5 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 15 min at r.t. Isocyanide 5 (5 mmol) and cyanoacetic acid (6; 5 mmol) were successively added and the mixture was stirred for 24-48 h at r.t. An abundant precipitate was formed, which was filtered and successively washed with i-PrOH and i-Pr2O, yielding a product pure enough to be used in the following reaction. For analytical purposes it may be further purified by recrystallisation from EtOH.

Cyclisation of the Ugi Adducts ( 7): General Procedure: A 0.5 M solution of KOH in EtOH (1 mL, 0.5 mmol) was added to a solution of the Ugi adduct (7, 0.5 mmol) in EtOH (1 mL). The mixture was stirred for 8 h at r.t. and the orange-yellow precipitate obtained was filtered and washed with i-Pr2O, yielding compound 8 in an essentially pure form.
