Heterocyclic analogues of xanthone and xanthione. 1H-pyrano[2,3-c:6,5-c]dipyrazol-4(7H)-ones and thiones: synthesis and NMR data

Molecules. 2010 Sep 1;15(9):6106-26. doi: 10.3390/molecules15096106.

Abstract

The synthesis of the title compounds is described. Reaction of 1-substituted 2-pyrazolin-5-ones with 5-chloro-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonyl chloride or 5-chloro-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonyl chloride, respectively, using calcium hydroxide in refluxing 1,4-dioxane gave the corresponding 4-heteroaroylpyrazol-5-ols, which were cyclized into 1H-pyrano[2,3-c:6,5-c]dipyrazol-4(7H)-ones by treatment with K2CO3/DMF. The latter were converted into the corresponding thiones upon reaction with Lawesson's reagent. Detailed NMR spectroscopic investigations (1H, 13C, 15N) of the ring systems and their precursors are presented.
