In recent decades, the chemistry of functionally substituted 1,2,4-triazoles and the fused heterocyclic systems based on them have received significant attention due to their structural and biological characteristics. The 1,2,4-triazole ring is a fragment of many fungicides such as fluconazole, intraconazole, and voriconazole.Citation1 3-R-4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones were found to exhibit antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity.Citation2–5 Fused heterocyclic triazoles also possess important clinical applications; thus, 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles were reported as antiviral, antifungal, and antitumor agents.Citation6–8 Anti-HIV activity was also found.Citation9 Sterically hindered phenols were reported to possess anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties,Citation10,Citation11 in addition to their well-known antioxidant activity.Citation12

As a continuation of our studies on the synthesis of azoles containing a hindered phenol moiety,Citation13,Citation14 in the present work we have synthesized a number of novel compounds: substituted arylideneamino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones, 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]-thiadiazoles and 6-aryl/alkyl-amino[1,2,4]-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles, based on 3-(4-hydroxy-2,6-di-tert-butylphenyl) propanoic acid hydrazide, in search of new structures potentially exhibiting useful properties.

In this study two different approaches were used to prepare the starting 4-amino-3-[2-(4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)ethyl]-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione 3 (Scheme 1). In the first case,Citation15,Citation16 the reaction of the hydrazide 1 with carbon disulfide and methyl iodide took place in ethanol to give the methyl ester of dithiocarbazic acid 2 in two stages over 24 hours (see Experimental section). Heterocyclization of the compound 2 with hydrazine hydrate lead to the formation of 3-R-4-amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-thione 3 in 55% yield. In the second case the 1,2,4-triazole 3 was obtained by the interaction of equimolar amounts of 3-(4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)propanoic acid 4 and thiocarbohydrazide. According to the published data,Citation17,Citation18 this approach involves, in most cases, a short-term fusion of the initial reagents, but, in our case, even short heating of the reaction mixture above the melting point led to the destruction of the starting acid. So the reaction was carried out by refluxing the starting reagents in pyridine for 12 hours, and the desired product was isolated in 35% yield.

3-R-4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones, as it was estimated, can exist both in thionic and mercapto-forms.Citation19 The 1H NMR spectrum of compound 3 contains a signal in the 9.5-10 ppm region corresponding to the proton in the triazole ring, with no peak at 6 ppm corresponding to the proton of the mercapto-group.Citation20 In the IR spectrum there are medium intensity bands at 1350-1330 and 1530-1520 cm−1, corresponding to the C = S bond vibrations, and there are no bands in the 2610-2530 cm−1 region characterizing the vibrations of the C-SH unit.Citation21 Thus, the spectral data suggest that compound 3 in the crystalline state, as well as in the DMSO solution, exists in a thionic form.

Compound 3 reacted further with a number of carboxylic acids, with aryl/alkyl isothiocyanates and several aldehydes (Scheme 2).

According to the literature data, the reaction with acids is usually carried out by allowing the starting materials to reflux in phosphorus oxychloride or thionyl chloride.Citation22 In our case the reaction of 4-amino-3-R-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione 3 with a series of carboxylic acids 5a-h was carried out by the reflux of the starting reagents in POCl3 for 9 hours, and new 1,2,4-triazolo [3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles 6a-h were obtained in yields of 35-81%.

In the IR spectra of the obtained compounds, there are no absorption bands at 3335 and 3269 cm−1, indicating that there is no NH group, and no band in the region of 1530-1520 cm−1 related to the C = S bond, but there is a band at 750 cm−1 corresponding to the deformation vibrations of the C-S-C unit. There are no peaks at 9.5-10 ppm in the 1H NMR spectra, indicating the absence of N-H protons.

One-pot reaction of the triazole 3 with aryl/alkyl isothiocyanates was carried out by the reflux of the starting reagents in DMF during 24 hours and triazolothiadiazoles 8a,b were obtained in yields of 35-41%. In the 1H NMR spectra of compounds 8a,b the signals of NH2 and NH (triazole) protons disappeared, but a singlet for the alkyl/aryl amino proton appeared in the range of 5.47-5.57 ppm, confirming that the triazoles had converted into triazolothiadiazoles.

Schiff bases 10a-c were obtained by the condensation of 1,2,4-triazole 3 with the appropriate aldehydes in the presence of a catalytic amount of concentrated sulfuric acid in refluxing i-PrOH in yields of 22-29%. The IR data for the compounds 10a-c revealed bands at 1344 cm−1 (C = S stretching) and the absence of absorption in the region of ∼2600-2550 cm−1 cited for an SH group, indicating that these compounds are in the thionic form. In the 1H-NMR spectra of the compounds 10a-c in DMSO-d6, the N = CH proton appeared near 8-10 ppm as a singlet.

In summary, 4-amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-thiones were used as convenient synthons for the preparation of 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles. It was established that the best yields (55%) of the 4-amino-3-R-1,2,4-triazol-5-thione 3 were achieved by heterocyclization of methylcarbodithionate 2. A number of novel condensed derivatives and Schiff bases with hindered phenol fragments were obtained starting from the 4-amino-3-R-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione. They were characterized using IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, elemental analysis and mass spectroscopy methods. We hope that our study will stimulate further research on these fascinating heterocyclic systems.

Experimental section

The IR spectra were obtained on an Agilent Cary 660 FTIR spectrometer using an ATR cell with ZnSe crystal. 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra of solutions in DMSO-d6 were recorded on a Bruker AM-300 spectrometer. All experiments were performed according to the standard methods of Bruker. Chemical shifts were reported relative to Me4Si. The values ​​of coupling constants are given in Hz. The mass spectra were recorded on an MS-30 Kratos device (Eu, 70 eV). A peak of the molecular ion M+ was observed for all synthesized compounds. The melting points of the compounds obtained were determined in open capillary tubes. Elemental analysis was carried out using a Vario Microcube analyzer. The course of reactions and purity of the compounds obtained was monitored by TLC on silica gel plates in a 10:1 benzene-ethanol solvent system, unless otherwise noted.

General procedure for preparation 5-substituted-4-arylidenylideneamino-)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones (10a-c)

A mixture of 1.74 g (5 mmol) of 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole 3 and 5 mmol of the corresponding aldehyde 9a-c was refluxed under stirring in 20 ml of i-PrOH and a few drops of H2SO4 for 10-12 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled, poured into ice water, the precipitate formed was filtered off and dissolved in CHCl3. The solution was washed with NaHCO3 solution and with water. The CHCl3 was evaporated under vacuum and the precipitate obtained was purified using a silica gel column (benzene:EtOH 10:1 or toluene:EtOH 10:1).
