An Unusual Michael Addition of 3,3-Dimethoxypropanenitrile to 2-Aryl Acrylates: A Convenient Route to 4-Unsubstituted 5,6-Dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines

Abstract: An unusual Michael addition between 2-aryl-substituted acrylates and 3,3-dimethoxypropanenitrile which leads, depending on the reaction temperature (60 or -78 degrees C, respectively), to a 4-methoxymethylene-substituted 4-cyanobutyric ester or to a 4-dimethoxymethyl 4-cyanobutyric ester is described. These compounds can be subsequently converted to 4-unsubstituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines upon treatment with a guanidine system under microwave irradiation.

“…The same aldehyde was taken through a Knoevenagel reaction, then esterification afforded alkenoate 25 b . The alkoxycarbonyl group was moved to the internal position in 25 c , prepared from the commercial phenylacetic acid that was esterified (99 %) and then condensed with formaldehyde (58 %) . Suzuki–Miyaura couplings between 8 and 25 a – c using procedure A, delivered electrocyclisation precursors in moderate to good yields (Scheme )…”

“…For the α‐methylenation of the ester 11a , several standard procedures were examined. These included: (a) paraformaldehyde, NaH, tetrahydrofuran (THF),8 (b) paraformaldehyde, K 2 CO 3 , tetrabutylammonium iodide, N , N ‐dimethylformamide (DMF),11 and (c) sodium hexamethyldisilazide (NaHMDS), CH 2 I 2 , THF 12. Unfortunately, none of these methylenation procedures were useful.…”

“…We also achieved 4-unsubstituted 5,6-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines (55; R 4 = H) through the Michael addition of 2-aryl substituted acrylates (45; R 6 = aryl, R 5 = H) and 3,3-dimethoxypropanenitrile (52) which leads, depending on the reaction temperature (60 or −78 • C, respectively), to a 4-methoxymethylene substituted 4-cyanobutyric ester (54) or to a 4-dimethoxymethyl 4-cyanobutyric ester (53). These compounds are subsequently converted to the desired 4-unsubstituted compound (55; R 4 = H) upon treatment with a guanidine carbonate 49 under microwave irradiation [99]. We completed our approach to totally dehydrogenated pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-ones (56)(57)(58) and (17; R 4 = H) by using several oxidation protocols [16].…”
