A series of novel 2-acyl or benzoyl-3-amino-4-tritluoromethyl-6-substituted furo[2,3-b]-pyridines have been synthesised from 4-tritluoromethyl-6-substituted- l ,2-dihydro-2-oxo-3-pyridine carbonitrile via 2-0-phenacyl or acetonyl-3-cyano-4-tritluoromethyl-6-substituted pyridines.

The furo[2,3-b ]-pyridines are structurally analogous to indoles and quinolines I . They are known to have biological activity because the furo[2,3-b]pyridine

. moiety is present in furo[2,3-b]quinoline alkaloids2

isolated from some Rutaceae and makes the back­bone of furo[2,3-b]pyridine alkaloids3. The furo[2, 3-b ]pyridine ring system have been claimed as potent herbicides4 and as integral components of cephalo­sporine derivatives5. The furo[2,3-b]pyridines are mainly formed by the fusion of (n) deficient pyridine and a (n) excessive furan ring. The earlier reports on the synthesis of furo[2,3-b ]pyridines are mainly fusion of furan ring to pyridines6- lo and pyridine ring to furan I I . Some of the reports are by intramolecular Diels-Alder cyclisation of 1 , 2, 4-triazines 12- 17, 1 , 3-pyrimidines 1 8. 1 9 and pyrazines20•2 1 with dienophilic side chain and by rearrangement of azepines22•23. However, no report on fluorinated furo[2,3-b]­pyridine except under ref. l O is available in literature. The fluorinated furo[2,3-b ]-pyridines are supposed to have enhanced activity due to their lipophilic nature. Therefore our continued interest on the synthesis of fluorinated pyridones24, fused pyridines such as pyrido[3' ,2' :4,5]furo[3,2-d]- 1 ,3-pyrimidines25, pyrido­[3'2':4, 5]furo[3, 2-d]- 1 , 3-oxazines26, N-allyl-2( lH)­pyridones27, prompted us to synthesise a series of novel fluorinated furo[2,3-b ]pyridines.

bonitrile 124 was reacted with bromoethylacetate, exclusive O-alkylation products were formed. This 0-alkylation is mainly presumed to be due to the presence of bulky substituent in the ortho position of nitrogen in pyridone28 and effect of trifluoromethyl group which profoundly enhances the aromaticity of the ring29• The O-alkylated products were cyclised using Thorpe Ziegler reaction30.

Accordingly we have adopted the same methodolgy to synthesise a number of O-alkylated products 3a-p using 4-trifluoromethyl-6-substituted- l , 2-dihydro-2-oxo-pyridine 1 and phenacylbromide or chloroacetone and cyclised to 2, 6-disubstituted-3-amino-4-trifluoromethylfuro[2, 3-b ]pyridines 4a-q (Scheme I).

in the region 2220-2250 cm" characterises these compounds as O-alkylated products. The products 4 show the presence of amine (NH2) function as two doublet shoulders at 3480 and 3360 cm- ' and disappearance of nitrile (C=N) at 2220 cm- ' .

The 'H NMR spectra of products 3 show the presence of active methylene protons as a sharp singlet in the range of 5 . 1 -5 .8 ppm which are absent in the spectra of products 4 where the presence of NH2 protons as broad singlet at 5 .9-6.4 ppm is observed. It indicates the formation of cyclised products. The aromatic protons in all the products

appeared in their appropriate aromatic regions. The mass spectra of the products showed the stable molecular ion with characteristic fragmentation patterns. The number of fragments shown by each product is given in detail in the experimental section together with the proper assignment. The number of compounds synthesised are tabulated in Table I.

The 3-cyano-4-trifluoromethyl-6-substituted-2( lH)pyridones (5 mmole) were dis­solved in dry acetone (30 mL) and to the solution was added chloroacetone or substituted phenacylbromide (5.5 mmole), potassium carbonate ( 1 0 mmole) and sodium iodide (0.010 g). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 4hr at 60°C and cooled to room temperature. The acetone was removed in vacuo and the residue washed with n-hexane to remove unreacted chloroacetone or substituted phenacyl­bromide. The solid product was dissolved in water to remove excess potassium carbonate and the KCI or KBr salt formed in the reaction. The slurry was fi ltered, washed with water and dried to obtain good yield of product in pure form.

2-Acetyl or substituted benzoyl-3-amino-4-trifluoromethyl-6-substituted furo[2,3-b ]pyridines 4a-q. General procedure. The 2-0-acetonyl or sub­stituted phenacyl-3-cyano-4-trifluoromethyl-6-sub­stituted pyridine (4 mmole) was dissolved in dry N,N­dimethylformamide (6.5 mL) and potassium carbo­nate (8 mmole) was added. The reaction mixture was heated for 3hr with stirring, maintaining the temperature at 1 1O- 120°C. After cooling to room temperature it was poured into crushed ice. The separated solid product was filtered, washed with water and dried. The product was purified by passing over neutral alumina in chloroform.
