Abstract

A series of trifluoromethyl-substituted 3-alkoxypyridinol derivatives has been deprotected to furnish pyridine-3,4-diol derivatives in good yields. The X-ray crystal structure analysis proved that a 1:1 mixture of pyridine-3,4-diols and their pyridin-4-one tautomers exist in the solid state. Subsequent conversion into bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonate)s were smoothly achieved. The obtained compounds were used as substrates for palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. Fluorescence measurements of the biscoupled products showed a maximum of emission in the violet region of the spectrum.

Introduction

Pyridine scaffolds have been found in numerous naturally occurring compounds and are also frequently used in functional materials [1-4]. Pyridindiol derivatives are of particular interest as building blocks for the construction of dendritic nanostructures in supramolecular chemistry [5], whereas N-protected pyridine-3,4-diols find applications as potent chelating agents in medicinal chemistry [6]. Furthermore, perfluorinated heteroaromatic compounds are interesting synthetic intermediates for the development of novel pharmaceuticals [7]. Continuing our research on heterocyclic chemistry based on alkoxyallenes [8-17], we focused on the synthesis of trifluoromethyl-substituted pyridine derivatives [18-23]. Herein, we report different methods for the deprotection of a range of 3-alkoxypyridinols 1 to give pyridine-3,4-diols 2 and the corresponding tautomers 2′. This equilibrium between pyridindiols and hydroxypyridinones will be thoroughly investigated in the solid state as well as in solution. Furthermore, subsequent transformations into bistriflate or bisnonaflate derivatives will be described, followed by palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. The resulting biscoupling products are analysed with regard to their photophysical properties.

Results and Discussion

The preparation of pyridine-3,4-diol derivatives as depicted in Scheme 1 succeeded by using highly substituted trifluoromethyl-substituted 4-hydroxypyridine precursors 1 that have been prepared in two steps from lithiated alkoxyallenes, nitriles and carboxylic acids [21]. It is noteworthy, that the respective protecting group at C-3 of the pyridine core was originally incorporated with the alkoxyallene moiety. The mild cleavage of the benzyl-protected pyridine 1a to diol 2a was achieved by hydrogenolysis in the presence of catalytic amounts of palladium on charcoal. Methyl ethers such as 1b or 1d were cleaved by Lewis-acids. The (2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl-protected pyridine 1c was easily deprotected to diol 2c by a Brønsted acid such as TFA. In most cases, the corresponding pyridindiols 2a–d were obtained in good yields (63%–quant.).

NMR-measurements in CDCl3 showed that the obtained pyridine-3,4-diols 2 are in equilibrium with their pyridin-4-one tautomers 2′. For instance, in case of 2c the equilibrium is strongly shifted to the pyridin-4-one 2c′ (ratio 2c:2c′ = 30:70). This ratio could be completely shifted to the pyridine-3,4-diol side by a polar protic solvent such as methanol. Surprisingly, the X-ray crystal structure measurement of compound 2c [24] revealed that in the solid state a 1:1 ratio of diol and its pyridinone tautomer 2c′ is preferred. Figure 1 shows that two pyridine-3,4-diol molecules are in one plane with two pyridinone molecules in a perpendicular plane. The two alternating planes are connected by hydrogen bridges.

As a consequence of our ongoing interest in perfluoroalkyl sulfonate chemistry [25], we converted the two hydroxyl groups into triflates or nonaflates, respectively (Scheme 2). These substituents represent very good leaving groups for subsequent functionalisations such as palladium-catalyzed C–C cross-coupling reactions [26,27]. At first, the pyridindiols 2a and 2c–d were treated with Et3N in dichloromethane and an excess of Tf2O or Nf2O, respectively. This provided bistriflates or bisnonaflates 3a–d as the only products in moderate to very good yields (47–90%). A direct comparison showed that the treatment of 2c with Tf2O led to a higher yield than that with Nf2O. This may be due to lower steric hindrance in the case of the triflating reagent.

As typical examples of possible palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings we performed several Sonogashira-reactions [28-30]. As described in Scheme 3, the pyridinyl-bistriflates or -nonaflates 3 were coupled with alkynes like phenylacetylene or (triisopropylsilyl)acetylene using Pd(PPh3)4 or alternatively, Pd(OAc)2/PPh3 as catalyst and CuI as co-catalyst in the presence of a 1:2 mixture of iPr2NH and DMF. Only the corresponding biscoupled products 4, which were isolated in moderate yields (30–44%) have been observed. Comparing entries 2 and 3, the coupling of an alkyne with a bisnonaflate gave a slightly lower yield than that with the corresponding bistriflate. A subsequent cleavage of the triisopropylsilyl group with a fluoride source provided product 5 in 58% yield.

The biscoupling reaction led to extended π-systems which might have interesting photophysical properties [31-33]. Hence, absorption and emission of 4b and 4c were studied. The results are depicted in Figure 2 and show absorption maxima in the range of 275–295 nm whereas the emission maxima are located between 385–400 nm.

[1860-5397-6-42-2]

Figure 2: Absorption and fluorescence spectra of compounds 4b and 4c.

Both products are fluorescent, emitting light in the violet region and show similar Stokes shifts. Owing to the additional phenyl substituent at C-2 of pyridine 4c, the π-system is slightly more extended and obviously influences the absorption and emission maxima with a bathochromic shift of 10 nm.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we have successfully demonstrated that 3-alkoxypyridines are ideal precursors for the synthesis of pyridine-3,4-diol derivatives. The coexistence of pyridindiol and pyridinone tautomers in the solid state was discovered by an X-ray structure analysis. It was shown that pyridine-3,4-diols could easily be converted into bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonates) which represent substrates for the construction of extended π-systems using palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. Moreover, compounds 4b–c show interesting photophysical properties that might be thoroughly investigated in the future. The 3,4-dialkynyl-pyridine derivatives 4 or 5 are also candidates for Bergman cyclizations [34,35] which may establish a route to isoquinoline derivatives.
