When the reaction of the compounds of the formulae (III) and (IV) is carried out at lower temperatures--generally below 60.degree. C.--, the compounds of the formula (II) can be isolated. When the reaction mixture obtained at the reaction of the compounds of the formulae (III) and (IV) is heated to a higher temperature --generally to a temperature of 60.degree. C. to 120.degree. C.--the cyclization of the compounds of the formula (II) is accomplished and directly the desired compounds of the formula (I) are obtained.
According to variant (a) of the process according to the invention compounds of the formula (I), wherein R.sub.1 is an oxo group, and n is 1 are obtained. These compounds are pyrido[2.1-f]-as-triazinium-1-one, as-triazino[1,6-a]-quinoxalinium-4-one, as-triazino[6,1-a]-isoquinolinium-1-on, as-triazino[1,6-f]-phenantridinium-1-one salts and the substituted derivatives thereof.
It has been found that different molecules of Zwitter-ion type can be derived from the above mentioned compounds which can be illustrated by the resonance-structures of the formulae (e), (f) and (g). ##STR14## The invention encompasses the compounds of the general formula (I) corresponding to all the Zwitter-ion structures mentioned above.
According to variant (b) of the process according to the invention a compound of the formula (V) is cyclized. The reaction can be performed by heating the compounds of the formula (V) in the presence of a dehydrating agent. The reaction temperature is preferably between 60.degree. C. and 120.degree. C. As dehydrating agents, the compounds listed at variant (a), (particularly phosphorus oxychloride) are preferably used. By this variant compounds of the formula (I), wherein R.sub.1 is other than an oxo group, n is 0 and R.sub.1 ' and R.sub.2 ' form together a valency bond are obtained.
The compounds of the formula (V) can be prepared by reacting an oxo compound of the formula (VI) with an amide of the formula (VII). The reaction can be carried out in a solvent, in the presence of a dehydrating agent at a temperature of 20.degree. C. to 60.degree. C. For this purpose the solvents and dehydrating agents listed at variant (a) are preferably used. The compounds of the formula (V) thus-obtained can be isolated or cyclized directly in the same reaction mixture where they have been formed.
When the reaction of the compounds of the formulae (VI) and (VII) is performed at a lower temperature--generally at 20.degree. C. to 60.degree. C.--the compounds of the formula (V) can be isolated. When the reaction is carried out at a higher temperature (e.g. between 60.degree. C. and 120.degree. C.) the compounds of the formula (V) are cyclized immediately, so the desired compounds of the formula (I) are obtained directly.
The compounds of the formula (V) can be prepared also by reacting a compound of the formula (VIII) with an O-substituted hydroxylamine. As O-substituted hydroxylamine preferably O-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-hydroxylamine can be used. The reaction is carried out at room temperature or under heating in an organic solvent. As reaction medium the solvents listed at variant (a) can be used. When the above reaction is performed under mild heating or for a longer time, the compounds of the formula (V) are cyclized spontanaeously, without isolation. The cyclization can be quickened by dehydrating agents. For this purpose the dehydrating agents listed at variant (a) are suitable.
The compounds of the formula (VIII) can be prepared by reacting an imide of the formula (IX) with a carboxylic acid of the formula (X) or with a reactive derivative thereof optionally in the presence of an acid binding agent. As reactive derivatives of the carboxylic acids of the formula (X) preferably the corresponding acid halide (e.g. chloride or bromide), acid anhydride, mixed anhydride, ester or imidazolide are used. The reaction is carried out at a temperature between 0.degree. C. and 120.degree. C., preferably at about room temperature. As acid binding agent inorganic bases (e.g. alkali hydroxides, alkali carbonates or alkali bicarbonates) such as sodium or potassium hydroxide, sodium or potassium carbonate or bicarbonate (or organic bases) e.g. triethylamine, trimethylamine, pyridine can be used. If the reaction is performed in the presence of an acid binding agent, the compounds of the formula (VIII) can be isolated.
The above reaction is generally carried out by using an equimolar amount of the reactants or a small excess of one of the reactants dissolved or suspended in a suitable solvent, optionally in the presence of a dehydrating or acid binding agent at a suitable temperature. When the reaction is completed the product usually separates from the reaction mixture. The isolation of the product is carried out by usual methods (e.g. filtration or centrifugation). If desired, the product can be purified.
Into a compound of the formula (I), wherein R.sub.2 represents hydrogen, a C.sub.1-10 alkyl group can optionally be introduced. This reaction can be performed by N-alkylating methods known per se. As alkylating agent the corresponding alkyl halides (e.g. methyl iodide, ethyl iodide) or dialkyl sulfates (e.g. dimethylsulfate or diethylsulfate) or any usual alkylating agent (e.g. diazomethane) can be used. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of an acid binding agent. For this purpose inorganic bases (e.g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate), or organic bases (e.g. trimethylamine, triethylamine or pyridine) can be used. The alkylation is carried out between 20.degree. C. and the boiling point of the reaction mixture, preferably under heating. As reaction medium, suitable inert solvents--preferably the solvents listed at variant (a)--can be used.
Into a compound of the general formula (I) obtained, wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen, an amino group can also be introduced. The reaction can be performed by using an O-substituted hydroxylamine, preferably O-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-hydroxylamine. One proceeds preferably in organic solvent, at room temperature or under mild heating. As reaction medium, the solvents listed at variant (a) can be used.
In a compound of the general formula (I) obtained the anion X.sup.- can, if desired, be replaced by an other anion X.sup.-. The reaction is performed by reacting the compound of the general formula (I) with the acid or salt containing the desired anion. The perchlorates of the general formula (I) are prepared by reacting a compound of the general formula (I) containing an other anion (e.g. p-toluenesulfonyl anion) with perchloric acid.
The compounds of the general formula (III) used as starting substances can be prepared by the method of Y. Tamura et al. [Tetrahedron Letters 40, 4133-35 (1972)], the ketimines of the general formula (IX) are produced as described in Compt. Rend. 258, (12) 3323 (1964), and the starting substance of the ketones of the general formula (VI) is prepared by the method described in Liebigs. Ann. Chem. (1976) 1351-6. The other starting substances are known compounds.
The starting substances of the general formula (II) can be prepared by reacting a compound of the general formula (III) with a compound of the general formula (IV) in the presence of a dehydrating agent.
The starting substances of the formula (V) can be prepared as follows:
a. a compound of the formula (IV) is reacted with an amide of the formula (VII) in the presence of a dehydrating agent; or
b. a compound of the formula (VIII) is reacted with an O-substituted hydroxylamine; or
c. an imide of the formula (IX) is reacted with a carboxylic acid of the formula (IX) or with a reactive derivative thereof optionally in the presence of an acid binding agent, and the imide of the formula (VIII) thus-obtained is reacted with an O-substituted hydroxylamine (in the formulae R.sub.1, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.7, Z and X.sup.- have the same meanings as above).
