Abstract
The first access to 3,5-disubstituted imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole derivatives is reported. The series were generated from 2-mercaptoimidazole, which afforded the key intermediate bearing two functional positions. The SNAr reactivity toward tosyl release at the C-3 position was investigated and a regioselective electrophilic iodination in C-5 position was performed to allow a novel C–C bond using Suzuki–Miyaura reaction. Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling conditions were optimized. A representative library of various boronic acids was employed to establish the scope and limitations of the method. To complete this methodological study, the influence of the nature of the C-3 imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole substitutions on the arylation in C-5 was investigated.
Introduction
For the past few decades, sulfur-containing [5,5] fused ring systems with a bridgehead nitrogen have received considerable attention in the drug discovery field due to their interesting biological activities.1–6 For example, structures containing them have been reported in various therapeutic anticancer7–9 and antitubercular10 agents, and for cardiovascular treatments.11 Moreover, other representative molecules have demonstrated their potential in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.12 For these reasons, this heterocyclic family plays an increasingly important role in exploring uncovered regions of chemical space for the discovery of new biologically active drugs.
However, this exploration remains underdeveloped when we consider the sub-family bearing a sulfur–nitrogen bond.13–19 The main reasons are the lack of knowledge about their formation, reactivity or how to successfully position the desired substituents step by step. There has therefore been tremendous interest in overcoming this major hindrance in order to increase the molecular diversity around these series and develop highly original cores for the design of future original bioactive molecules.
For several years, our group has disclosed efficient methodologies to selectively functionalize bicyclic [5,5] heterocycles such as [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles,20 thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazoles21 and more specially, imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles.22–26 The latter have proven applicable to the discovery of a wide variety of biological molecules. Surprisingly, one of the isomers, the imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole core, has seldom been described, and is reported in only a few references, where it has shown its potential as a therapeutic agent, especially as a Factor XIIIa inhibitor.27–31 It is therefore of interest to provide a synthetic platform including a [5,5] nitrogen bridge heterocycle which would open the route to original biological compounds.
In order to build C-3 and C-5 disubstituted imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole derivatives, we developed a straightforward strategy which included from a versatile platform 4, a C-3 nucleophilic aromatic substitution followed by a C-5 iodination/Suzuki–Miyaura sequence. We report herein an unprecedented synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted-imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole I, the optimization of the experimental conditions and finally the scope of both reactions on these two selected positions (Fig. 1).

Results and discussion
First, we focused our attention on the tosyl platform 4, which can be prepared by using three short steps from commercially available 2-mercaptoimidazole.27 The condensation of 1 and n-butyl isocyanate led to amide 2 in a near quantitative yield. The oxidative ring closure in presence of bromine and triethylamine afforded the [5,5] fused bicyclic heterocycle 3 in an excellent 93% yield. To finish, a ring-opening/ring-closure sequence in presence of tosyl cyanide led to 4 in 88% yield (Scheme 1).

To tackle the usefulness of 4 as a building block and taking advantage of the tosyl as leaving group, we began by the C-3 functionalization using a SNAr reaction. Using the Leung–Toum conditions,27 derivative 5 was synthesized with n-propylamine as nucleophile and Et3N as base, in toluene at r.t. after 4 hours in a 91% yield (Table 1, entry 1). After the successfully accomplished condensation of a primary aliphatic amine with 4, we next explored the scope of this method by treating the versatile platform 4 with other types of amines. The use of cycloalkylamines such as cycloproyl- or cyclohexyl-amine decreased the yield to 65% (entries 3 and 4). With N-methylpropylamine, the efficiency of the reaction was maintained (entry 2 vs. 1) while with other secondary cyclic amines such as piperidine or N-methylpiperazine, the efficiency significantly diminished (entries 5, 6). Fortunately, when morpholine was condensed with 4, the SNAr reaction led to compound 11 in an excellent 94% yield (entry 7). Interestingly, we obtained a yield of 74% with the less nucleophilic benzylamine (entry 8) but no reaction was observed with aniline (entry 9). To achieve this investigation, we switched to alkoxides as nucleophiles (entries 10, 11) and all the attempted compounds were isolated in near quantitative yields.

Selective halogenation in C-5 position with N-bromo or N-iodosuccinimide in DMF at r.t. was performed and showed a better reactivity for the introduction of iodine atom (Table 2 entries 22, 24 versus 26 and 27). The scope of the reaction was studied with compounds 5–11 to afford derivatives 16–27 (Table 2) without any significant problems as iodo derivatives were mainly isolated in satisfying yields, except in the case of 18 and 21 for which the purification was more problematic.

With these compounds in hand, we then achieved the iodine displacement by Suzuki–Miyaura cross coupling as no C–C bond formation in C-5 position appears to be currently described on this skeleton. This prompted us to propose to the community a general and efficient catalytic system by optimizing the main reaction parameters (Table 3). First, we used 22 as starting material, Pd(PPh3)4 as the palladium source, Cs2CO3 as base, and dioxane as solvent under microwave irradiation during 1 h. With these conditions, the desired product 28 was isolated in a low but encouraging yield (33%, Table 3, entry 1). When the catalyst was switched for PdCl2(dppf).DCM, the reactivity was improved and the desired compound 28 was obtained in 47% yield. In the following experiment, we catalyzed the reaction with a bidentate palladium complex, which was formed by using a mixture of Pd(OAc)2 (10 mol%) and Xantphos (20 mol%). The reaction was achieved in only 1 h and product 28 was isolated in a satisfying yield of 60% (Table 3, entry 3). Changing the nature of the base indicated that the use of K2CO3 did not affect the reaction yield whereas K3PO4 partially reduced the reactivity.

Next, the scope and potential limitations of the Pd-coupling step were investigated by modulation of the boron derivatives (Table 4). The use of electron-rich or neutral phenyl boronic acids was well tolerated and furnished the derivatives 29 and 30 in good yields (entries 2 and 3). In contrast, the presence of electron-withdrawing substituents such as nitro or fluorine slightly decreased the efficiency of the reaction and compounds 34 and 35 were isolated in 40% and 38% yields, respectively. Next, we investigated the influence of steric hindrance using the methoxy position switch on the phenyl ring. While the ortho orientation induced a dramatic decrease in yield (34% versus 65% for 28), the meta orientation led to the desired compound in a 50% yield (entries 3–5). The only identified limit concerned the presence of labile hydrogens such as OH or NH, which totally inhibited the reaction (entries 6, 10 and 11). This constraint was easily removed by the use of a protective group such as THP for the phenol derivative (entry 6) and an aryl entity was successfully introduced in a good overall yield of 59% after a tandem sequence including the cross coupling reaction and the in situ deprotection. Finally, the introduction of electron-rich heterocycle was studied with thiophene-3-boronic acid, and the desired product 36 was isolated in a good 71% yield.

To complete this Suzuki–Miyaura study, we then evaluated the influence of the nature of the substituent in C-3 position (Table 5) and selected p-tolylboronic acid as the sole arylation partner. As previously described, the presence of a hydrogen on the C-5 nitrogen atom totally inhibited the catalytic cycle (entries 1, 3, 4 and 8) whereas its substitution restored the efficiency of the reaction (entry 2 vs. 1). In fact, whatever the nature of the tertiary amine (i.e. aliphatic or cyclic) in C-3 position, the C–N bond was efficiently generated and products were isolated in fairly good yields ranging from 56% to 71% (Table 5, entries 2, 5–7). To finish, we performed the cross coupling reaction in the presence of an alkyloxy in the C-3 position and proved that the final compound could be obtained in moderate yield (entries 9, 10) suggesting that electronic enrichment of the heterocycle played a major role in the result. Heck (with methyl acrylate) or Buchwald (with aniline) cross-coupling reactions are performed with this catalytic system and only 10% of conversion were obtained. This limitation prompted us to identify, in the future, a new catalytic system able to remove this limitation.

Conclusions
In summary, the quick access to 3,5-disubstituted imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole has been described herein. Aminated or alkoxyl groups were introduced at the C-3 position of the imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole platform using the SNAr strategy. A large variety of amines or alkoxides was achieved, giving, after regioselective electrophilic iodination in C-5 position, access to perform a C–C bond formation. The efficiency of the Suzuki–Miyaura reactions in C-5 position was shown with a large panel of boronic acids. This work allows access to a novel class of 3,5 disubstituted imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazoles which will undoubtedly have a major impact on the further synthesis of new bioactive compounds that contain the rare imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole scaffold as the central skeleton. Efforts to achieve these objectives are currently in progress.
Experimental section
Materials and methods
1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker DPX 250 or 400 MHz instrument using CDCl3 and DMSO-d6. The chemical shifts are reported in parts per million (δ scale), and all coupling constant (J) values are reported in hertz. The following abbreviations were used for the multiplicities: s (singlet), d (doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), p (pentuplet), m (multiplet), sext (sextuplet), and dd (doublet of doublets). Melting points are uncorrected. IR absorption spectra were obtained on a PerkinElmer PARAGON 1000 PC, and the values are reported in inverse centimeters. HRMS spectra were acquired in positive mode with an ESI source on a Q-TOF mass by the “Fédération de Recherche” ICOA/CBM (FR2708) platform. Monitoring of the reactions was performed using silica gel TLC plates (silica Merck 60 F 254). Spots were visualized by UV light (254 nm and 356 nm). Column chromatography was performed using silica gel 60 (0.063–0.200 mm, Merck.). Microwave irradiation was carried out in sealed vessels placed in a Biotage Initiator or Biotage Initiator+ system (400 W maximum power). The temperatures were measured externally by IR. Pressure was measured by a non-invasive sensor integrated into the cavity lid. All reagents were purchased from commercial suppliers and were used without further purification.
Synthetic procedures
General procedure A: SNAr of tosylated imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole derivative. 3-(4-Methylbenzenesulfonyl)imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole 4 (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in DMF (10 mL for 1.0 g) under an argon atmosphere then triethylamine (2.0 eq.) and corresponding amine (4.0 eq.) were added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 4 h then quenched by water addition. The mixture was extracted 3 times with ethyl acetate (3 × 15 mL) and combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4 and filtered. After concentration under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel.
General procedure B: iodination or bromination of imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole on C-5 position. Corresponding imidazo[1,2-d][1,2,4]thiadiazole 5–15 (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in dry DMF then N-iodosuccinimide or N-bromosuccinimide (1.1 eq.) was added. After 4–16 h stirring at room temperature away from light, the mixture was diluted with water, then extracted twice with ethyl acetate (2 × 15 mL). Combined organic phases were washed with a 10% aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate (20 mL), and twice with brine (2 × 20 mL). The solution was dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated under reduced pressure, and then the residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel.
