Synthesis and electronic aspects of tetrahydrobenzothienopyrimidine derivatives

subject

description

Abstract The chemistry of thiophenes, pyrimidines, triazolopyrimidines and benzothiophenes has drawn much attention because of their biological activities. Their interesting properties are connected with their complex π-electron delocalisation effects. Herein the synthesis, crystal and molecular structures at 100 K and DFT calculated structures of three tetrahydrobenzothienopyrimidine derivatives are reported i.e. 4-hydrazino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro[1]benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine which was a substrate for 2-phenyl-8,9,10,11-tetrahydro[1]benzothieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine and 3-methyl-9,10,11,12-tetrahydro-2H-[1]benzothieno[2′,3′:4,5]pyrimido[1,6-b][1,2,4]triazin-2-one. Moreover the influence of the substituents, polycyclic structure and crystal packing and on the aromaticity of the fused heterocyclic rings have been also discussed. The 4-hydrazino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro[1]benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine is a promising substrate for a number of different reactions and discovering novel biologically active heterocycles. All three molecules are planar except of the tetrahydrobenzene part, which shows normal conformation. In crystals the molecules are connected to each other by C–H⋯N, N–H⋯N, C–H⋯S and S⋯π contacts. The geometry of common core in all structures is similar and typical for this class of compounds. The aromaticity of the fused heteroaromatic systems has been investigated by means of the HOMA indices. The discrepancy between values of HOMA for isolated monocyclic compounds and studied molecules from crystal structure shows destabilization of aromaticity when the rings are fused in a larger heterocyclic systems. The thiophene part of the molecule is far more sensitive on the influence of both mesomeric effects in polycyclic system and molecular environment in solid-state than pyrimidine ring. The presence of intermolecular interactions was confirmed by Hirshfeld area analysis.
