Abstract

2-(Polyfluoroalkyl)chromones react with 4-alkyl-3-cyanocoumarins in dichloromethane in the presence of triethylamine to give a wide variety of functionalized benzo[c]coumarin derivatives in good yields. This new annulation reaction presumably proceeds by a tandem intermolecular Michael addition and subsequent intramolecular condensation between an intermediate enolate anion and cyano group. In the case of 3-cyano-4-methylcoumarin and 2-(trifluoromethyl)chromones activated by two electron-withdrawing substituents, three acyclic intermediates were isolated and the possible mechanism of the reaction was suggested.


Introduction

Chromones and coumarins are abundant in nature and are found in a wide range of pharmaceutically active compounds. Numerous biological activities have been attributed to simple chromones and their analogues such as anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet, anticancer, and antimicrobial activities, including those related with central nervous system and obesity.1 Coumarin and its related analogues are found to occur naturally as secondary metabolites in higher plants and also in microorganisms. Natural as well as synthetic coumarins exhibit significant biological activities, such as anticoagulant, analgesic, antitumor, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, as well as antimicrobial and enzyme inhibition properties.2

Due to this biological importance, we envisaged that the combination of a chromone system with a coumarin ring would allow the development of a new class of biologically active molecules and useful synthetic building blocks in organic and medicinal chemistry. However, although chromones are electrophilic substrates and some coumarin derivatives such as 4-hydroxycoumarins have nucleophilic sites, their ability to react with each other has been illustrated with only few examples.3 Most pertinent to the present research is the reaction involving a basic 1,4-conjugate addition of 3-acetoacetylcoumarins4 on chromone-3-carboxylic acid in refluxing chloroform containing a catalytic amount of 4-pyrrolidin-1-ylpyridine (4-PPy). In this case, polyfunctionalized benzo[c]coumarins had been formed in 23–70% yields by a tandem pathway involving Michael addition, decarboxylation and aromatization (Scheme 1).4

It should be noted that construction of the 6H-benzo[c]chromen-6-one (dibenzo-α-pyrone) derivatives has attracted much interest, because some of them represent specific proliferation inhibitors of endothelial cells5 and oestrogen receptor growth.6 Other benzo[c]coumarin structures have been described as potent and selective antagonists of estrogen receptor subtype β.7 Recently reported syntheses of this skeleton, which is present in a number of pharmacologically relevant natural products, such as autumnariol,8 autumnariniol,9 alternariol,10 and altenuisol,11 rely on sequential [3 + 3]-cycloaddition–Suzuki cross-coupling reactions,12 Me3SiOTf-mediated condensation of 1,3-bis(silyl enol ethers) with chromones followed by domino retro-Michael–aldol–lactonization reactions,13 reactions of chromones with dimethyl 1,3-acetonedicarboxylate,14 ethyl cyanoacetate and diethyl malonate,15 as well as 4-chloro-3-formylcoumarin with 1,3-bis(silyl enol ethers)16 and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds.17

On the other hand, in recent years, 2-(trifluoromethyl)chromones have attracted considerable attention as highly reactive substrates, which can serve as the starting materials in the synthesis of various partially fluorinated heterocycles.18 The enhanced reactivity of these compounds is presumably due to the powerful electron-withdrawing ability of the CF3 group, which additionally activates the C-2 atom (it is usually attacked first) and thus facilitates the addition of nucleophilic reagents despite the steric hindrance.19 Among the diverse transformations of 2-CF3-chromones, one of the most interesting is their base-mediated condensation with ylidenemalononitriles having both nucleo- (Me) and electrophilic (CN) groups, to give the corresponding polyfunctionalized benzophenones and xanthones.20 This one-pot synthesis can be considered as a tandem intermolecular Michael addition of the activated methyl group to the double bond of the pyrone ring and subsequent intramolecular recyclization with participation of the cyano group. As a continuation of our studies on the synthetic potential of 2-(trifluoromethyl)chromones 1, we decide to investigate their reaction with 3-cyano-4-methylcoumarins 2 also having a nucleophilic methyl group and an electrophilic cyano group in the molecule (Fig. 1). Herein, we report that this condensation is a new one-pot transformation of the chromone system and can be employed to obtain a wide range of the functionalized benzo[c]coumarins bearing trifluoromethyl and amino groups. The substitution pattern present in our products is, to the best of our knowledge, not available via previously known transformations.

Results and discussion

A characteristic property of 3-cyano-4-methylcoumarins 2 is the acidity of the methyl group at C-4, which is greatly enhanced owing to the strongly electron-withdrawing groups attached to the double C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond. As a result, some direct vinylogous reactions of coumarins 2 might be developed by mild base-catalysis. Thus, compounds 2a–c are able to condense with aromatic aldehydes21 and 3-formylchromones22 under the influence of bases to give the corresponding styryl derivatives. The vinylogous Michael addition of 3-cyano-4-methylcoumarin (2a) to α,β-unsaturated ketones was also described,23 however, its potential as a successful donor and acceptor in tandem anionic reactions was not recognized so far. Only two reports are known which describe the reaction of coumarin 2a with arylidene malononitriles and arylidene cyanoacetates to produce 7-amino-6-oxo-9-aryl-6H-benzo[c]chromene-8-carbonitriles;21a the reaction of methylenemalononitrile with 2a afforded benzopyrano[4,3-h]quinoline.24 The kinetic acidity of the methyl group in coumarins 2 led us to investigate the utility of the reaction of this methyl function for synthesizing other useful heterocyclic derivatives. 4-Methyl- and 4-ethyl-3-cyanocoumarins 2a–d (Fig. 1) were prepared by condensation of equimolecular amounts of the corresponding 2-hydroxyacetophenone or 5-bromo-2-hydroxypropiophenone with malononitrile in ethanol in the presence of 10% NaOH.25

Continuing our research program dedicated to the design and synthesis of new 3,4-fused coumarins15,26 and in view of the unique biological properties displayed by partially fluorinated compounds,27 we decided to study the reactions of 4-alkyl-3-cyanocoumarins 2a–d with a set of readily available substituted 2-(polyfluoroalkyl)chromones 1a–l (Fig. 1). It is known that 2-alkylchromones are less reactive than 2-unsubstituted chromones due to steric and electronic factors, however, the introduction of electron-withdrawing RF groups at the 2-position of the chromone system significantly changes the reactivity of the pyrone ring with respect to nucleophiles. Recently,20 2-RF-chromones with electron-withdrawing substituents in the benzene ring have gained the wide application as substrates for the reaction with ylidenemalononitriles. Logically, they were taken as starting materials of choice.

We have started this work by the study of the reactions of less reactive 2-CF3-chromones 1a–d and found that they react with coumarin 2a in dichloromethane in the presence of triethylamine (1 equiv.) at room temperature for 14–45 days affording benzo[c]coumarins 4a–e in low yields (except chromone 1b, which gave coumarin 4b in 63% yield). The products 4a–b could be isolated by simple filtration of the precipitate formed, while compounds 4c–d were purified by column chromatography. This reaction is an earlier unknown transformation of 2-CF3-chromones, which can be regarded as nucleophilic 1,4-addition of a coumarin ring due to the presence of a vinylogous methyl group with the formation of a new C–C bond (intermediate A). Subsequently, γ-pyrone ring opens by cleavage of the C–O bond to form an intermediate B, which cyclizes at the cyano group to give benzo[c]coumarins 4 via intermediate salts 3. The acyclic intermediates A and B and salts 3a–d were not observed in this case, however, they were isolated during the work with more active chromones 1i–j (see below). Clearly, the electron-withdrawing CF3 group enhances the electrophilicity of the starting chromones 1a–d and encourages conjugate addition at the initial stage, whereas electron-donating Me and MeO groups at the 6-position retard this process despite the presence of the 5-NO2 group (Scheme 2, Table 1).

Similar reactions with more reactive chromones 1e–h bearing the 6-NO2 or 8-NO2 group or two electron-withdrawing groups proceed faster (1–10 days) and gave triethylammonium salts 3e–j, which were isolated in a pure state in 30–84% yields. These salts were rather stable due to the more acidic phenolic hydroxyl and their conversion to the corresponding benzo[c]coumarins 4e–j was effected by heating in concentrated HCl for 15 min in almost quantitative yield (Scheme 2). The progress of the reactions was monitored by TLC, and the results are summarized in Table 1. We got the best results when the reaction was conducted in the presence of triethylamine in dichloromethane; this system we previously employed to convert 2-RF-chromones to polyfunctionalized benzophenones.20

Benzo[c]coumarin 4h was obtained in 82% overall yield as stable yellow crystals and its structure was independently confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. According to this, the salicyloyl fragment has a planar conformation due to the intramolecular hydrogen bond O–H· ·O[double bond, length as m-dash]C and is tilted at −74.6(3)° to the fused rings. Benzocoumarin part of the molecule is close to planar due to its aromatic character and existence of intramolecular N–H⋯O[double bond, length as m-dash]C hydrogen bond as shown in the picture (Fig. 2).

We next investigated the reactions of coumarins 2a–c with tri- and tetrasubstituted chromones 1i–j, for this, it was anticipated, would give additional information and evidence for the reaction pathway. Indeed, the difference in behavior between chromone derivatives 1a–h and 1i–j was remarkable and we were able to isolate the acyclic stable salts 5k–o in 36–93% yields, probably, due to their lower solubility in dichloromethane (Scheme 3, Table 2). Note that salts 5m, 5o were obtained at 3 °C for 14 days because of strong resinification of the reaction mixture at room temperature. The intermediacy of 5k–o is in accordance with the readiness with which these salts under the action of triethylamine undergo ring closure involving the methylene group to form triethylammonium salts 3k–o, which were further converted to the final products 4k–o upon heating in concentrated HCl for 15 min in 85–93% yields. Stirring of salts 5k–o in concentrated HCl at room temperature gave adducts 6k–o in 72–93% yields with E-configuration of the double bond (X-ray data, see below). In a DMSO solution compound 6k cyclizes into the initial Michael adduct 7k (yield 75%, 6 days), while a similar conversion 6l7l was observed in DMSO for 15 days (yield 61%). Products 7k–l contain two CH2 functions with J = 15.0–15.2 Hz and J = 16.6–17.3 Hz, as shown by 1H NMR spectra; this observation obviously excluded the possibility of other structure for these compounds.

Salts 3k–p were also obtained directly from chromones 1i–j and coumarins 2a–c in the presence of 2 equiv. of triethylamine for 1–4 days at room temperature in 42–83% yields. In an attempt to define the scope and limitation of this reaction, the condensation of 2-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl)chromone 1k with coumarins 2a, 2c was investigated and compounds 3q–r and 4q–r were obtained under the same conditions in high yields. The reaction of 2-C4F9-chromone 1l with 2a gave only benzo[c]coumarin 4s, which was isolated in 30% yield using column chromatography on silica gel (Scheme 3, Table 2). It should be also noted that the reactions between 2-methylchromone or unsubstituted chromone and coumarin 2a did not take place under the optimized reaction conditions, indicating that the strongly electron-withdrawing groups in the substrates 1 are essential for this triethylamine-mediated reaction.

The structure of triethylammonium salts 3 was unambiguously confirmed by X-ray single crystal analysis of 3n as a representative example (Fig. 3). A common structural feature of these compounds is the presence of two intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the amino group hydrogen atoms and carbonyl group with the lengths H(1A)⋯O(7) = 1.95(2) Å and H(1B)⋯O(5) = 2.32(3) Å. The benzene ring is almost perpendicular to the benzocoumarin moiety.

The structure of acyclic triethylammonium salts 5 was established by X-ray crystallographic study of crystals 5k, 5l. The molecular structure of salt 5k is presented in Fig. 4, showing that coumarin and benzene rings are arranged close to each other in parallel relation with distance between planes d 3.432 Å. The same conformation was identified also in the structurally similar salt 5l (d 3.588 Å) (Fig. 5).

Single crystal X-ray analysis of coumarin 6l showed that its double bond has the E-configuration (Fig. 6). This conclusion can be expanded to its analogs 6k, 6m–o, since the 1H NMR spectra of these compounds in DMSO-d6 are very similar and characterized by the close chemical shifts of the [double bond, length as m-dash]CH proton (δ 7.80–7.85 ppm) and the AB system of the CH2 group in the range of δ 4.1–4.3 ppm with the coupling constants J = 17.0–18.6 Hz as a result of restricted rotation in the molecules.

Fig. 6 Molecular structure of coumarin 6l (ORTEP drawing, 50% probability level, disordering of the trifluoromethyl group is not shown).

Thus, the formation of benzocoumarins 4 from the reaction of compounds 1 and 2 is assumed to proceed via Michael type addition of the methyl function in coumarins 2 to the activated double bond of chromones 1 (adducts 7), followed by ring-opening and 1,3-H shift to give acyclic triethylammonium salts 5 (isolable in the case of tri- and tetrasubstituted chromones 1i–j). The latter undergo intramolecular cyclization between enolate anion and cyano group to give benzocoumarin salts 3, which then could be hydrolyzed into the target products 4. Although the possibility that at the initial stage cycloadduct C is formed and then via ring-opening (intermediate D) and 1,3-H shift resulted in the formation of benzocoumarins 4 could not be disregarded (this sequence is demonstrated in Scheme 4), we believe that the suggested above mechanism is more preferred since any fused intermediates were not observed.

Finally, we decided to increase the synthetic scope of this reaction by including in our investigation 6-bromo-3-cyano-4-ethylcoumarin 2d. To our delight, replacement of the methyl group by the ethyl group did not lead to the negative result in this case; instead, under the above conditions salt 3s and benzo[c]coumarins 4t–u were isolated in the reaction of chromones 1h, 1j with coumarin 2d in variable yields (Scheme 5).

Conclusion

In conclusion, we have shown, for the first time, that the condensation of 2-(polyfluoroalkyl)chromones with 4-alkyl-3-cyanocoumarins in the presence of triethylamine is a straightforward and convenient route to a wide range of functionalized benzo[c]coumarin derivatives and their precursors, which were not easily available by alternative procedures. This reaction has advantages with regard to ease of operation and the ready availability of starting materials.
