1 Introduction

Coumarins comprise a very large class of compoundsfound throughout the plant kingdom [1] The bioactivity ofcoumarin andmore complex related derivatives appears to bebased on the coumarin nucleus [2 3] Coumarin compoundscan display anticancer anticoagulant antimicrobial anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities [4ndash8]

In addition as an important class of organic heterocyclicdyes coumarin derivatives exhibit unique photochemical andphotophysical properties which render them useful in avariety of applications such as optical brighteners laser dyesnonlinear optical chromophores solar energy collectorsfluorescent labels and probes in biology and medicine andtwo-photon absorption (TPA) materials [9ndash12]

Coumarins have been synthesized by several methods[13ndash18] In the interest of synthesizing new coumarin ringsystems for possible evaluation as biologically active com-pounds we have described a synthesis of carboxymethylcoumarins from 3-hydroxyl pyridine [19] carboxylic systems[19ndash22] we wish to report here the synthesis of some benzo-fused coumarinsThe preparations of coumarins are depictedin Schemes 1 2 and 3

3 Result and Discussion

Treatment of 4-hydroxyquinoline 1 with dialkyl acety-lene dicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in toluene under reflux

afforded dimethyl 2-(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-quinolinyl)-2-butenedioate (3) [22] When compound 3 was heated at200ndash205∘C it transformed to methyl 2-oxo-2H-pyrano[32-c]quinoline-4-carboxylate 4 in good yield The analyticaland spectral data of the product agree with the structure 4suggested The products were separated by column chro-matography and identified as 4 based on their elementalanalyses and their IR 1H and 13CNMR spectral dataThe mass spectra of these compounds displayed molecularion peaks at appropriate mz values Its 1HNMR spectrumshowed 3H singlet at 120575 = 408 for only one methoxy groupand a singlet (1H) at 120575 = 709 for methine proton The13CNMR spectrum one carbon appeared for the coumarincarbonyl (120575 = 1586 ppm) and one carbon for the carbonylester moiety (120575 = 1635 ppm) The 1H and 13CNMR spectraof 4b and 4c are similar to those of 4a except for thealkoxy moieties which exhibited characteristic resonanceswith appropriate chemical shifts

Treatment of 3-isoquinolinol 5 with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in refluxing toluene for 24 h and

separation of the reaction mixture by column chromatog-raphy gave methyl 3-oxo-3H-pyrano[23-c]isoquinoline-1-carboxylate 6 in 76 yield (Scheme 3) obviously via areaction sequence similar to that depicted in Scheme 1 Thereaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylate was notdetected because of the bulky group (Scheme 2)

Next we studied the reaction of 7-hydroxy coumarine 7with dialkyl acetylene dicarboxylate and PPh

3in refluxing

toluene which resulted in the formation of the methyl28-dioxo-2H8H-pyrano[32-g]chromene-4-carboxylate 8(Scheme 3) The linear product 9 was detected and isolatedfrom the reaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylatebecause of the bulky group

Mechanistically [13 19] it is conceivable that the reactioninvolves the initial formation of a zwitterionic intermediatebetween Ph

3P and the acetylenic compound and subsequent

protonation of reactive 1 1 adduct followed by electrophilicattack of vinyltriphenylphosphonium cation on the aromatic

4 Conclusion

From the above results we conclude that treatment of oxygenatom of the pyran ring belongs to the starting phenolwhile the periselectivity in the construction of this new ringdepends on the higher reactivity of the free o-positions ofthe phenol during the aromatic electrophilic substitutionsequenceThese functionalised coumarinsmay be consideredas potentially useful synthetic intermediates because theypossess atoms with different oxidation states The advantagesof presentmethod are the fact that it performed under neutralcondition and substances are utilized in their basic formwith-out anymodificationThe simplicity of the present proceduremakes it an interesting alternative to other approaches

3 Result and Discussion

Treatment of 4-hydroxyquinoline 1 with dialkyl acety-lene dicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in toluene under reflux

afforded dimethyl 2-(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-quinolinyl)-2-butenedioate (3) [22] When compound 3 was heated at200ndash205∘C it transformed to methyl 2-oxo-2H-pyrano[32-c]quinoline-4-carboxylate 4 in good yield The analyticaland spectral data of the product agree with the structure 4suggested The products were separated by column chro-matography and identified as 4 based on their elementalanalyses and their IR 1H and 13CNMR spectral dataThe mass spectra of these compounds displayed molecularion peaks at appropriate mz values Its 1HNMR spectrumshowed 3H singlet at 120575 = 408 for only one methoxy groupand a singlet (1H) at 120575 = 709 for methine proton The13CNMR spectrum one carbon appeared for the coumarincarbonyl (120575 = 1586 ppm) and one carbon for the carbonylester moiety (120575 = 1635 ppm) The 1H and 13CNMR spectraof 4b and 4c are similar to those of 4a except for thealkoxy moieties which exhibited characteristic resonanceswith appropriate chemical shifts

Treatment of 3-isoquinolinol 5 with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in refluxing toluene for 24 h and

separation of the reaction mixture by column chromatog-raphy gave methyl 3-oxo-3H-pyrano[23-c]isoquinoline-1-carboxylate 6 in 76 yield (Scheme 3) obviously via areaction sequence similar to that depicted in Scheme 1 Thereaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylate was notdetected because of the bulky group (Scheme 2)

Next we studied the reaction of 7-hydroxy coumarine 7with dialkyl acetylene dicarboxylate and PPh

3in refluxing

toluene which resulted in the formation of the methyl28-dioxo-2H8H-pyrano[32-g]chromene-4-carboxylate 8(Scheme 3) The linear product 9 was detected and isolatedfrom the reaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylatebecause of the bulky group

Mechanistically [13 19] it is conceivable that the reactioninvolves the initial formation of a zwitterionic intermediatebetween Ph

3P and the acetylenic compound and subsequent

protonation of reactive 1 1 adduct followed by electrophilicattack of vinyltriphenylphosphonium cation on the aromatic

ring at the ortho position relative to the strong activationgroup The product is presumablyproduced by intramolecu-lar lactonization of the unsaturated diester 10 (Scheme 4)

4 Conclusion

From the above results we conclude that treatment of oxygenatom of the pyran ring belongs to the starting phenolwhile the periselectivity in the construction of this new ringdepends on the higher reactivity of the free o-positions ofthe phenol during the aromatic electrophilic substitutionsequenceThese functionalised coumarinsmay be consideredas potentially useful synthetic intermediates because theypossess atoms with different oxidation states The advantagesof presentmethod are the fact that it performed under neutralcondition and substances are utilized in their basic formwith-out anymodificationThe simplicity of the present proceduremakes it an interesting alternative to other approaches

3 Result and Discussion

Treatment of 4-hydroxyquinoline 1 with dialkyl acety-lene dicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in toluene under reflux

afforded dimethyl 2-(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-quinolinyl)-2-butenedioate (3) [22] When compound 3 was heated at200ndash205∘C it transformed to methyl 2-oxo-2H-pyrano[32-c]quinoline-4-carboxylate 4 in good yield The analyticaland spectral data of the product agree with the structure 4suggested The products were separated by column chro-matography and identified as 4 based on their elementalanalyses and their IR 1H and 13CNMR spectral dataThe mass spectra of these compounds displayed molecularion peaks at appropriate mz values Its 1HNMR spectrumshowed 3H singlet at 120575 = 408 for only one methoxy groupand a singlet (1H) at 120575 = 709 for methine proton The13CNMR spectrum one carbon appeared for the coumarincarbonyl (120575 = 1586 ppm) and one carbon for the carbonylester moiety (120575 = 1635 ppm) The 1H and 13CNMR spectraof 4b and 4c are similar to those of 4a except for thealkoxy moieties which exhibited characteristic resonanceswith appropriate chemical shifts

Treatment of 3-isoquinolinol 5 with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate 2 and PPh

3in refluxing toluene for 24 h and

separation of the reaction mixture by column chromatog-raphy gave methyl 3-oxo-3H-pyrano[23-c]isoquinoline-1-carboxylate 6 in 76 yield (Scheme 3) obviously via areaction sequence similar to that depicted in Scheme 1 Thereaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylate was notdetected because of the bulky group (Scheme 2)

Next we studied the reaction of 7-hydroxy coumarine 7with dialkyl acetylene dicarboxylate and PPh

3in refluxing

toluene which resulted in the formation of the methyl28-dioxo-2H8H-pyrano[32-g]chromene-4-carboxylate 8(Scheme 3) The linear product 9 was detected and isolatedfrom the reaction with di-tert-butyl acetylene dicarboxylatebecause of the bulky group

Mechanistically [13 19] it is conceivable that the reactioninvolves the initial formation of a zwitterionic intermediatebetween Ph

3P and the acetylenic compound and subsequent

protonation of reactive 1 1 adduct followed by electrophilicattack of vinyltriphenylphosphonium cation on the aromatic

4 Conclusion

From the above results we conclude that treatment of oxygenatom of the pyran ring belongs to the starting phenolwhile the periselectivity in the construction of this new ringdepends on the higher reactivity of the free o-positions ofthe phenol during the aromatic electrophilic substitutionsequenceThese functionalised coumarinsmay be consideredas potentially useful synthetic intermediates because theypossess atoms with different oxidation states The advantagesof presentmethod are the fact that it performed under neutralcondition and substances are utilized in their basic formwith-out anymodificationThe simplicity of the present proceduremakes it an interesting alternative to other approaches
