Abstract

The synthesis of 4,4,4-trifluoro-3,3-dihydroxy-2-methyl-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1-one (3) through acylation of 1,1-dimethoxy-1-(thien-2-yl)propane (1) with trifluoroacetic anhydride and its reactions with hydroxylamine and hydrazine was investigated. X-ray structural analysis of new trifluoromethyl-substituted dielectrophile 3 revealed that this hydrate exists as a racemate with inter- and intramolecular O-H·O bonds. The crystal structure shows alignment along axis b of pair molecules with the same configuration of the O₂-H·O1 bond. For 5(3)-trifluoromethyl-4-methyl-3(5)-(thien-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole (4), obtained via cyclocondensation of precursor 2 and hydrazine hydrochloride, X-ray structural analysis indicated that its rings are almost planar (torsion angle N2-C5-C6-C7–5.4°) and that S1 at the thienyl moiety is anti-periplanar to N2 (torsion angle N2-C5-C6-S1 176.01); no disorder effect was observed for the thienyl ring.

1. Introduction

The preparation and application of 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-alkoxy-3-alken-2-ones are presently well documented [1, 2]. In the last two decades, β-alkoxy-α,β-unsaturated trifluoromethyl ketones [as 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-alkoxy-3-alken-2-ones (a), 1-methoxy-2-trifluoroacetylcycloalk-1-enes (b), 3-trifluoroacetyl-4,5-dihydrofuran (c), and 3-trifluoroacetyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyran (d) (Figure 1)], which are formally trifluoroacetylated enol ethers, have proved to be important building blocks for hetero- and carbocyclic compounds [1–3]. In view of the importance of heterocyclic thiophene systems, we have focused our attention on the synthesis of thien-2-yl-substituted dielectrophiles [4]. Thiophenes are abundant in pharmaceuticals and natural products. In addition, they are useful intermediates for preparing novel conducting polymers and nonlinear optical materials as well as for isosteric replacement of phenyl groups in medicinal chemistry [5–7].

In this work, we report the application of an acetal acylation method to 1,1-dimethoxy-1-(thien-2-yl)-propane 1 and the cyclocondensation of dielectrophilic products obtained using the dinucleophiles hydrazine and hydroxylamine.

2. Results and Discussion

2.1. Acylation Methodology

The acetal precursor, 1,1-dimethoxy-1-(thien-2-yl)propane (1), was synthesized by reacting 2-propionylthiophene with trimethyl orthoformate [8]. The acylation process was carried out without solvent, involving only the addition of two molar-equivalent amounts of the acylating agent to a solution of 1 in pyridine (1 : 2) at −5°C, followed by stirring for 10 h at 25°C. The acylated products were isolated by dissolving them with diethyl ether and then were washed with water. The first product of the acylation process was 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-methoxy-3-methyl-4-(thien-2-yl)-3-buten-2-one, which eventually became a mixture of E and Z geometric stereoisomers. However, after acid aqueous work-up of the reaction solution, a mixture of 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-methyl-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1,3-dione (2) and 4,4,4-trifluoro-3,3-dihydroxy-2-methyl-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1-one (3) at a ratio of approximately 55 : 45 (as calculated by NMR ¹H spectroscopy) was obtained. The mixture was stirred with 0.01 M HCl solution for 2 h to convert all dicarbonyl 2 into hydrate 3 (Scheme 1). In a previous study, an analogous 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1,3-dione was hydrated using various solvents, leading to 4,4,4-trifluoro-3,3-dihydroxy-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1-one [9]. Our attempts to isolate the product as E/Z-1,1,1-trifluoro-4-methoxy-3-methyl-5-(thien-2-yl)-3-buten-2-one by vacuum filtration of the resulting reaction mixture were unsuccessful because without the use of ethyl ether as a carrier solvent, the yield was very low and a complex mixture of products including 2 and 3 was obtained. When ethyl ether was used as a carrier solvent, the yield of products increased and the mixture consisted predominantly 2 and 3. The crystallinity and high stability of product 2 and 3 mixtures gave us incentive to isolate them.

In the ¹H NMR spectrum of the mixture obtained after acid work-up, a quartet at 3.75 ppm with J_HH 6.8 Hz was assigned to H-2 of product 2, and one at 3.85 ppm with J_HH 6.8 Hz was assigned to H-2 of hydrate 3; in addition, multiplet signals from the thien-2-yl ring at δ 7.43 and 7.75 ppm were observed. In the ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectrum, quartet signals at 187.6 ppm with J_CF 36 Hz and at 95 ppm with J_CF 32 Hz were compatible with a mixture of acylated products 2 and 3.

The infrared absorption spectra of compound 3 are presented (Figure 2) and show the O-H stretching at 3383 cm⁻¹, attributable to the linear vibration of O-H bonds; in this region C-H stretching is also observed, 3074 and 3016 cm⁻¹. The C=O stretching is observed at 1662 cm⁻¹, and an intense absorption is observed at 1448 cm⁻¹ attributable to bending of CF₃ group. The absorption peaks at the region of 2300–2400 cm⁻¹ indicated the carbon dioxide of normal air.

Hydrate compound 3 crystallizes in the P2₁/n space group (Table 1). Figure 1 shows the molecular structure with the atom-numbering scheme, and Figure 2 shows the unit cell packing. Molecule 3 in a solid state consists of a pseudoring with an intramolecular O-H…O hydrogen bond (Figures 2 and 3). The bond distances and angles of the thienyl and trifluoromethyl hydrate moieties in the structure are in an acceptable range. The dihedral angle O3C5C6S1 1.1° indicates coplanarity between the thienyl ring and the carbonyl group, and the refinement indices do not suggest disorder on the thienyl ring. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked together by pairs of intermolecular O-H…O hydrogen bonds to form dimers (Table 2; Figures 3 and 4); there are also π-π interactions between antiparallel thienyl rings, which yield an infinite 3D arrangement of layers.

2.2. 1,2-Azole Synthesis

The condensation of 3 with hydroxylamine hydrochloride [10] was carried out in ethanol under reflux for 2 h, producing a diastereoisomeric mixture of 4a and 4b with a 7 : 3 ratio at 91% yield. The (4R,5R)/(4S,5S)-5-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-5-trifluoromethyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazol (4a), when methyl at position 4 of the isoxazole ring, is cis to hydroxyl, and (4S,5R)/(4R,5S)-5-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-5-trifluoromethyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazol (4b), when methyl at position 4 of the isoxazole ring, is cis to trifluoromethyl group (Scheme 2). There was no evidence of the formation of a regioisomer of the isoxazole derivative. The 4,5-dihydroisoxazol was very stable even in sulfuric acid medium.

The ¹H NMR spectra of the mixture 4a/4b in CDCl₃ contain two signals assigned to the methyl at position 4 of the isoxazole ring. A doublet at 1.48 ppm with ³J_HH 7.6 Hz was attributed to a 4a (4R,5R)/(4S,5S) enantiomer pair. And assuming that the spin-spin coupling between the hydrogen from the methyl group and the fluorine from the trifluoromethyl group occurs through space, then the doublet of quartets at 1.45 ppm with ³J_HH 8.0 Hz and J_FH 2.0 Hz was attributed to a 4b (4S,5R)/(4R,5S) enantiomer pair. The quartet at 3.89 ppm with J_HH 6.8 Hz was assigned to H-4 of an isoxazole isomer of 4a, and one at 3.78 ppm with J_HH 6.8 Hz was assigned to H-4 of a minor isoxazole isomer of 4b. The spectrum also has multiplet signals between δ 7.0 and 7.50 ppm from the thien-2-yl ring. The signals corresponding to OH were assigned to 2.35 (4a) and 2.31 ppm (4b); although the ratio between the integrals of the signal areas corresponding to H-4 and that assigned to OH, for each product 4a or 4b, is not 1 : 1, they maintain the same ratio between these areas in both products, in both 4a and 4b; the ratio between the area of the signal around 3.8–3.9 ppm and the area of the signal around 2.3 is equal to 3.5.

In the ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectra, the quartet signals at 103.8 and 104.1 ppm with J_CF 33 Hz were assigned to C-5 of isoxazole rings of 4a/4b, and signals from a CF₃ group were observed at 121.8 and 122.2 ppm with J_CF 285 Hz. The signals originating from CH₃ at position 4 of the diastereoisomeric isoxazoles of 4 presented a difference of 2 ppm, a singlet signal at 10.8 ppm was assigned to 4a, and a quartet signal at 12.8 ppm with J_CF 2.9 Hz was compatible with 4b; therefore, this coupling between the methyl and the trifluoromethyl groups through space indicates the cis relationship [11]. The condensation of 3 with hydrazine hydrochloride was carried out in ethanol under reflux for 6 h, producing 4-methyl-3(5)-(thien-2-yl)-5(3)-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole (5) as a crystalline solid at 85–89% yield (Scheme 3). Unlike of the hydroxylamine dinucleophile, [3 + 2] cyclocondensations of unsubstituted hydrazine with trifluoromethyl-substituted dielectrophiles lead to an aromatic 1H-pyrazole product [12] without isolating the intermediate 5-hydroxy-5-trifluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol. The aromatic 1H-pyrazole product is isolated as a tautomeric form depending on the substituents and other parameters [13]; here, we attributed the 1,5-tautomer form from NMR CDCl3 solution analysis data and 1,3-tautomer form from the crystal X-ray diffraction data (Tables 3 and 4; Figures 5 and 6).

The ¹H NMR spectrum of the 5(3)-trifluoromethyl-4-methyl-3(5)-thien-2-yl-1H-pyrazole (5) in CDCl₃ contains only one signal set: a singlet at 2.29 ppm assigned to the methyl at position 4 of the 1H-pyrazole ring and multiplet signals between δ 7.0 and 7.50 ppm from the thien-2-yl ring. In the ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectra, a quartet signal at 141.2 ppm with J_CF 36 Hz corresponded to C-5, a simple signal at 137.4 ppm was assigned to C-3, and a signal from the C-4 of the 1H-pyrazole ring was displayed at 112.3 ppm. The signal of the CF₃ group appeared as a characteristically large quartet at 121.6 ppm with J_CF 268 Hz.

In conclusion, we report the reaction of dielectrophilic precursor 4,4,4-trifluoro-3,3-dihydroxy-2-methyl-1-(thien-2-yl)-1-butanone with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to regiospecifically produce a diasteroisomeric mixture of 5-trifluoromethyl-5-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-(thien-2-yl)-4,5-dihydroisoxazole, demonstrating a degree of diastereoselectivity through cyclocondensation reactions; we also reacted it with hydrazine hydrochloride to produce aromatic 5-trifluoromethyl-4-methyl-3-(thien-2-yl)-1H-pyrazoles. Our results indicate that the dielectrophilic precursor is an efficient building block for the synthesis of 1,2-azoles.

3. Experimental

Unless otherwise indicated, all reagents and solvents were used as obtained from commercial suppliers without further purification. ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁹F spectra were acquired at 305 K on a Bruker DPX 400 spectrometer using a 5 mm dual probe. Chemical shifts (δ) are reported in ppm from tetramethylsilane (TMS), and coupling constants (J) are given in Hz. 4000–400 cm⁻¹ solid-state infrared (IR) spectrum was recorded on a Shimadzu PRESTIGIE-21 FT-IR spectrophotometer with KBr pellets. Compounds 2–5 were dissolved in acetonitrile (Merck, USA) 50% (v/v) with deionized water and 0.1% formic acid. The dissolved compounds were infused individually into the ESI source using a syringe pump (Harvard Apparatus) at a flow rate of 150 μL min⁻¹. ESI(+)-MS was acquired using a hybrid high-resolution and high-accuracy (5 μL/L) microTof (Q-TOF) mass spectrometer (Bruker® Scientific). Cone voltages were set to +3500 V and +40 V, respectively, at a desolvation temperature of 100°C. Diagnostic ions were identified by comparing experimental to theoretical ESI(+)-MS/MS. Diffraction measurements were made using graphite-monochromatized Mo Kα radiation with Å on a Bruker SMART CCD diffractometer [14]. The structures were solved by direct methods using the SHELXS-97 program [15] and refined on F² using a full-matrix least-squares package by SHELXL97 [16]. Absorption correction was performed using Gaussian methods [17]. Anisotropic displacement parameters for nonhydrogen atoms were applied, and the hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions of 0.96 Å (methyl CH3), 0.97 Å (methylene CH₂), 0.98 Å (methine CH), and 0.93 Å (aromatic CH) using a riding model. Hydrogen isotropic thermal parameters were kept equal to Uiso(H) = xUeq (carrier C atom), with for methyl groups and otherwise. The valence angles C-C-H and H-C-H of the methyl groups were set to 109.5°, and H atoms were allowed to rotate around the C-C bond. Molecular graphics were prepared using ORTEP3 for Windows [18].

3.1. Acylation Process of 1,1-Dimethoxy-1-(thien-2-yl)propane

Trifluoroacetic anhydride (60 mmol, 8.5 mL) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of 1,1-dimethoxy-1-(thien-2-yl)propane (30 mmol, 4.75 g) obtained from 1-(thien-2-yl)-1-propanone and pyridine (60 mmol, 5.0 mL) kept at −5 to 0°C, and the resultant mixture was stirred at 30°C for 8 h. To isolate the mixture of 2 and 3, the resultant reaction mixture was cooled until pyridinium trifluoroacetate precipitated; then, it was filtered off and the organic layer was washed with cooled ethyl ether. After solvent evaporation, the residue was a crystalline solid in a brownish oil, identified as a mixture of 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-methyl-1-(thien-2-yl)butan-1,3-dione (2, brownish oil) and 3,3-dihydroxy-4,4,4-trifluoro-2-methyl-1-(2-thien-2-yl)butan-1-one (3, colorless crystalline solid).
