Reaction of chloromethylphosphonic dichloride (9) with N-methylaniline gave N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-diphenylchloromethylphosphonodiarnide (10) which upon treatment with aluminium chloride underwent intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation to afford 1-methyl-2-(N'-methyl-N'-phenylamino)-2,3-dihydro-1N-l,2-benzazaphosphole 2-oxide(13a). Similarly, N-methyl-N-phenyl(ch1oromethy1)phenylphosphinamide (15) was cyclized to give 1-methyl-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,2-benzazaphosphole2-oxide (1 3b). Some unsuccessful approaches to this heterocyclic ring system are also reported.

A short general synthesis of 5-substituted 5,7-diaminoimidazo[4,5-b]pyridines from 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICA riboside) was designed to prepare isosteres of substituted 2-aminoadenosines that are selective adenosine A2 receptor agonists. AICA riboside was converted to a hydroxyl-protected 5-amino-4-imidazolecarbonitrile riboside and reacted with an N,N-disubstituted acetamide in the presence of phosphoryl chloride. Sodium hydride treatment completed the ring closure and introduced the 7-amino group. The hydroxyl protecting groups were removed under standard conditions. N-Substitution of the acetamide by one benzyl moiety led to a 5-N-substituted derivative through hydrogenolysis whereas N,N-dibenzylacetamide led to the 5,7-diamino compound. A 6-methyl analog was obtained from an N,N-disubstituted propionamide. This synthesis may be adapted to other heterocyclic systems, as illustrated by the preparation of an example of the imidazo[4,5-b]pyrrolo[3,2-e]pyridine ring system.

An uncomplicated, high-yielding synthetic route has been developed to constitute complicated heterocycles, applying domino, click and retro-Diels–Alder (RDA) reaction sequences. Starting from 2-aminocarboxamides, a new set of isoindolo[2,1-a]quinazolinones was synthesized with domino ring closure. A click reaction was performed to create the 1,2,3-triazole heterocyclic ring, followed by an RDA reaction resulting in dihydropyrimido[2,1-a]isoindole-2,6-diones. The absolute configuration, concluded by the norbornene structure that served as a chiral source, remained constant throughout the transformations. The structure of the synthesized compounds was examined by 1H and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) methods.

A highly convergent synthesis of the pentacyclic indole alkaloid (+)-mostueine (1) is described. The key step involved the coupling of the dianion derived from (1′S)-3-(1′-hydroxyethyl)-4-methylpyridine (4) with the iminium salt 3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-9-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-β-carbolinium iodide (3). Low asymmetric induction (15% de) at the C-1 position of the β-carboline ring system (C-3 of mostueine) was obtained. The nonfermenting baker's yeast-mediated reduction of 3-acetyl-4-methylpyridine provided the hydroxyethylpyridine component in acceptable yield (67%) and high optical purity (99.0% ee). This synthesis of 1 has established that the absolute stereochemistry of mostueine is (3S, 19R).

4-Methylpiperid-2,3-dione-3-phenylhydrazone failed to undergo ring closure under Fisher–cyclization conditions but rearranged to a more stable form of the phenylhydrazone. Cis–trans isomerism is suggested for the two forms.
